MMr, Moulton i also roquired to giva answor on Monday in tho civil suit of Mins Proctor agnindt him, the oxtonsion of timo whicl was granted ending at that timo, Itbns been understood for somo {time past that Judge Neilson would presido ut the trinl of the civil suits_in the City Court, for tho reason that Judge Roeynulds kud been Afr. Tilton's counsel at one time, and that Judge MeCuo had expressed an opiuion upon th_case, and was thus disqualified fur trying it. Judgo Nollson stated yeutorday, howevor, that it had not yot bzen docided who would try these cases, and the quention wonld not be docided until ho had con- sulted with his agsocintes, Judgo [teynolds had scted for Mr. Tilton in advising lnm as to tho validity of the contencts bolweou Mr. Bawen and bimsulf, but that would not in any degreo dis- ualify ' bim fiom trying the prosout cascs, wigo Noilson algo enid that he did not beliovo Judgo McCae Lad oxprossed suy opiniou upon tho casea, Boecherts Bringing Up, and How o ‘Thinks o Chitd Shouid be Keareds drom the New Yorfs World, Nov, 7. .

Thoro is no focling 60 strong as that which gues with gratitude, whore ono is anxious lest ho ghould ot wanifest gratitude whora it is . doserved. Tho spirit ot honor is in part n spirit of foar; every ono of tho higher foolingy has its own color of fear, so that if you deliver mon from tho boudago of inferior foar, tho lower forms aof it, it doos naot follaw that you set thewm froo from all the wfluonces of foar. ‘I'bero is courso fear, modernto fear, good four, low fear, exalted fear.
