Tee ATToRS®y GeNeRaL ow Tae E:our Hovr Law.—The opinion of Attorney General Evarts on the eight hour law, to wh ch refec- ence was made in the STAR a day or two sinca, bas just been published. It was called ont by & communication from = com- mittee of printers employed in the Govern- ment Printing Office, addressed to the Presi. dent, and requesting him, in behalf of the workingmen of the country, to instruct the At- torney (teneral to give am opinion upon the true construction of the eight hour law, and asking that the latter may answer whether the act reducing the nuraber ot hours constituting Aday's work was intended to work a corres. ponding reduction in the compensation for a day’s work. In reply, Mr. Evaris says there is nothing in the language of the act to indica’s such intention, nor dos this construction seem stall consistent with the aim and purpose of the law, which were reformatory in their char- acter, baying in view the promotion ot the Physical, intelieetual and moral welfare of those who are engaged in manual labor, and of the general interest of society. The theory appesrs to have been that the la. boring man or mechani, by meaus of the in- creased physical strength and vigor acquired through a reduction of his hoars ot toil, would be enavled to accomplish datly as much upon an average in eight honrs’ constant labor as be formerly did in ten. or even a longer pertod, while at the same time he would enjoy a lon- cer senson for mental and moral improvement.

Altogether, it 18 @ very com- plicate! case, PROMOTIONS IN VEE Navy.—The following promotions of naval officers have just been made:—Captoin George F, Emmons to be Com. modore; Commander R.F. Renshaw to be Cap- tain; and Lieutecant Commander Richard W. Mesds, Jr., to be Commander—ali to date trom Septesader 20th, bee. Porrt Looxovt RatLway.—We think the the City Councils would do well to make a small appropriation, as recommended by Mayor Bowen, for the purpose of making a vey through the District and out to the Long Old Fields, to the point that the survey- ors upon the proposed Point Lookout rail- rosd bBave reached coming this way. The parties interested in that road have authority to survey from Point Lookout to some point in Prince Georges’ county, to connec’ ether with the Potomac and Baltimore. the Baltimore and Ohio road, or to come direct to Washington. They preter te come to Wash- ington, and to have nothing to do with the con- flictivg roads. We suppose that there is scarce a railroad route in the country over Which & road could be built so easily ard cheaply as this to Point Lookout, It runs im nearly @ straight line (a slight bend occurring at Charlotte Hall) along the divide between the Potomac aud the Patuxent, aud up to the point that it strikes the District line, there is not @ stone to move nor a siream to cross, mvolving the construction of a bridge. Maryland has appropriated 175,000 to Charles county and $173,000 to St. Mary’s county, to be devoted to this improvement, and the right of way and much of the material forthe road will be takea in stock by the people on the line of the road, These facts serve to show that the project for building the road hasa solid basis of operations, The advantage to Washington resulting trom making this rich line of country tributary to imstead of to Baltimore need not be dwelt upon here. It is only necessary to say that Washington needs to encourage and build up all evterprises of this sort that will result in amproving our railroad communications, and money cannobe more judiciously spent than an this way. Tre Forty-First Conormss.— Although the approaching session of the Fortieth Con- gress will last but three months, there will, at is stated, be no crowding of legislation. The Foriy-first Congress assembles on the 4th of March next, as will be seen from the follow- ing, which is the first section of an act passed at the second session of the Thirty-ninth Con- gress, and approved January 22, 1867. It is entitled “An act providing for the meeting of Congress,” and reads as follows : “Be ut enacted, &c., That in addition to the pre- sent regular time of meeting of Congress there shall be a meeting of the Fortieth Qongress of the United States and of each successive Cou- gress thereafter at 12 o'clock m. on the 4th day of March, the day on which the term begins tor ‘which the Congress is elected, except that when the 4th of March occurs on Sunday the meeting shall take place at the same hour on the next succeeding day.” It 1s believed, however, that this provision for a meeting on the 4th of March will be Tepealed this winter. To meet in March will involve the necessity of gomg into the election of a Speaker at that time, and there 1s a dispo- sition to defer that until December, 1869, DEPARTURE OF GENERAL GRANT.—Gen Grantleft here this morning at = o’elock for Boston, Mass. He was secompanied by Mrs. Grant who will stop in Philadelphia a few days and meet the General in New York on his return from Boston. (en- eral Grant will visit Harvard College, but ‘Will not place his son there at present, as has been stated. On his retarn he will stop a day im Providence, and two days in New York, Teturning home in about ten days.

Forbes va, Mary E. Ayers, execuurix of Charles Myers, deceased. The‘ pap-rs in the case show tat this litigation bas been going on in various courts of this state between seven andeight years. It commenced by Mr. Forbes filing « mechanics’ lien agajast Charles Myers. for « bulance atleged to be due him for carpenter’s work on tne marble warehouse corner of South street and ¥xchange Place, on the 14th of Augaet, inti. The work was done under a written contract,in which Forves agreed to lease from Myers two lots of ground on Spring sireet, in consideration of his receiy- ing the contract for the carpenter's work. Myers execuied the leases, but they were never execitea by Forbes, which was found to be the case after Forbes was paid for the work all that was due him, except a balacce of $403 69. ‘This balance the executrix of Myers, after his death, refused to pay, tuless Foroes would receive the leases tor the lots, which he om various grounds retased to do. Forbes then issued & scire factas to enforce bis hen against Charles Myers on the law side of the Superior Qourt, and Myer’s executrix applied to tae Cireuit Court oi Baltimore city for an i siny proceedings ander the scire t compel Forbes to receive the leaves. Jadge Krebs ordered the iujuncticm, which Judge Alexander subsequently dissolved, and dis- missed the bill. The case was then taken to the Court of Appeals, whicn court decided that the contract to lease could not be specifi- cally enforced by & court of equity, becanse of indefiniteness as to the period of time for which the leases were to be made. Forbes then en- deayored to enforce payment of bis lien uoder the sci. fa. in the Superior Court, when Myer’s executrix,through ber counsel, moved toquash the seire facias, on the ground that it was a nullity, bn ving been issued against Chas. Myers aiter iis death. Judge Martin sustained the mo- tion and squashed tue sci. ta. Fortes then fited on the equity side of the Saperior Gourta bill to enforce his lien claim, ana for general reliet against Myers’s executrix. This ease was ar- gued some days ago by Wm. F. Frick and W. Pinkney Whyte, Esqs.,_ tor Forbes, and Benj. F. Horwitz, Esq, for Mrs. Myers. The prin- cipal defense relied on by Mrs.Myere was that, As more than five years (the time of imitation allowed by the statute) bad expired from the time of filing the lien to the time of filing the bill, the lien had cease to exist and could uet be enforced. Judge Dobvbin has sustained this view, dismissed complainant's vill, ana de- cided that be had no power to enforce the lien and grant relief aiter dive years from the time of filing it, and that the fact that Forbes had theretoiore issued a set. fa. on the lien, which hed been quashed us a nullity by Judge Mar- Un, could not prevent the statatory limitation of five years {row destroying the lien, although proceedings uuder ihat scire facias had been enjoined by the def-nd:nts for several years,— Balt.

Favor Siar: Lam glad to see you seconding so cordially the movement of sundry influential citizens of this city in a public meeting, holden recently, for another railroad out ot the city. ‘The greatest drawback that Washington has suffered for so many years, the greatest bip- drance to its growth and business prosperity, bas been @ Want of competitive transportation facilities, and Lam pleased to are this evidence of waking up to the fact. To build up any great business and commercial centre, there Must be cheap and quick freight transport tion, and passengers must Raye transit at their convenience. AS a sample of the yexations to travel and the hindrances to freight transporta- tion which the denizens of this city and its vis- itors have endured for years, I mention a fact of each kind, experienced by myself the pres. ent autumn. At Baltimore, as all the traveling community kuow, the check arrangement for baggage going north, except it be to New York, ends There, going ¢i*her north or south, the passen- ger gives up bis baggage check ard receives therefore a card with the number writren thereon. Two or three rotds connect with the Northern Central Railroad to get into Balti. more, and it sometime happens that two checks of same number, on different tranks, come along together, belonging to different owners, If the duplicate checks remained in the hands of th ave trunk owners until the tranks were ecked, there wontld be no diffialty on the part of the baggage me identit: owners, in the Baltimore and Ohio road Depot: but as the business of transterring bag- gage is now done, it will be seen that a man te Hable to lose bis trunks. Again, without the occurrence of the two checks of same num- ber, is he not liabie to lose his trank thera? eae an old chap in that depot, traveling with his wife, daughter, and two pe cen claimed nine trunks, and ha had my two in the number, and was abont taking them off, and but for my timely appearance, and then only after the stontest protestations against it, and my persistent demands of the baggage men for my trunks, were they given to me" Now fora treight ditticulty. Ten barrels of sundries I delivered tothe C. & R. Railroad depot in Cleveland, .. marked for Wash- ington, the freight tariff on ihe barrels was given to me, through to Washington The Baltimore & Obio Railroad charged more for the freight from Belleaire to Baltimore, than at ‘was to be, through to Washington, and then added freight thence to Washington; and the Company refuse to rectify the overcharges. It we had acompeting route from this city, ail the c* uses of complaint in regard to passenger and freight transit, would disappear and never occur more, I hope we shal! have one.
