That thoy have bestowed upom the subject such thought and re- pearch as were found practicable. Disclaiming all at- tempt at presenting ony original views, your committee will edduce simpy such obvious facts and reasons as will, in their opinion, show the pressing need of reform Ungthe laws referred to. In the beginning of 1597, our Jogislature was strongly dispored to repeal the usury laws. A committee, to whom the subject had been referred, embodied Jeremy Bentham’s “Defence of Usury’ im their report, and i- was printed as a legisistive document. Before the close of tho session, however, the great panic of that year commenced, resulting in the general euspension of specie payments by the Banks of tno United States, and we Logi*lature, instead of re pealing the usury lews, passed enactments greatly ia- | creasing their sever ; am ‘The provisions of this !aw of 1387, etill in these:— The lerder who receives more than seven por cent por annum forfeite the whoig su lent; 1s also lisdle to a fine of one thoussnd doilsrs and six months imprison- ment.

Oct 5.—Schelhouse against Orser, Sheriff of New York. —This action was brought to recover from defend ant as | Sheritf of the city, for seizing upon and selling 35,000 segars formerly belozgirg to ono Shell, and by him mortgaged to the plaintiff for $250, to be paid in one On the 15th June the Sheriff seized the eegars, they being, at tho time of the levy, im possession of the mo:tgagor, who was carry: ing on the business of manufacturing and selliag so gers. There was uo evidesco of any considoratt the mortgage, or any change of porsession of the pro. perty, bat that the mor'g«gor was using aud dispos- ing of the seme as bis stock in trade. jadgmeut upon *h:ch the Sheriff levied was recovered for tho totacco from which the segers were mate Tao de ferdant justified on tho execation and objected that the mortgage was not yet due; tho mortgagee. therefore, had no in‘erest in the property; and further alle, fread in the making of the mortgage. MoCasray, Justyce.—The quesiion of whether an ac- tion will be in «uch & case as this se*ms to me to hare been fully decided in the case of Griawold agatast Shel- don, Conrt of Appeals, New York—and in Van Antwer; sheriff, &e., pisiotiff in error, against Newman, defend: sat, on appeal to tho Sapreme Court. In the last cise goods bad been let to hire by News , Plaintiff, to one Dusted, and sold by do‘endant below, absolutely, unser ex+cution against husteed. Newman, as owner, brought action, and thy Covrt in that caso per Savage, Justices, | held thet the Shevit! had authority to sell the interest of Hucteed; that \t woe not in his power to divost Newman, the lessor of his property in the goods; andthat he had zot done s0; that Newman, therefore, had no right of action ogainst him; thst when the suit was commenced, Newman could not know that his goods would not be restored to him at tho expiration of hia loase, and was there‘ore premature in bringing his auit. By parity of reason'ng it would seen that the plaintiff in this case ‘also had been premature, if, upon other poiate ia tre cate, without that, he can recover at all In tho case of Griswold against sbeldoa in the Court of Appeals—a case which, in i's facts, was a very counterpart of the cae under consideratioa—it was held thet, as it was provided by the morigage that until default in payment the mortgagor should tetain the postossion and enjoy- meot of the property, and as thore had been no de- favlt, and tho mortgagor was in possession, the right of action for tke illegal levy, whoever s2ould be made dofendant, was in the mortgagor, and not ia the laintu? ‘On the other point raised, of presumptive Fraud, the Court aay:—"it the platntiff had avtemptel to recover the goods, which B (the mortgagor) had sold to his customers, no ove would think for a moment that ho conld succeed; and the statute gives no greator or bet. ter right to 2 bona fide purchaser than to an exesutfon creditcr. The transecticn was clearly fraudulent ia law, a8 against both. ‘There would bo no hope of maia- taining honesty and fair dealing if the courts should al- low u mortgagee or vencee to succeed in a claim to per- sonal property against cicditors and purchasers, after he had not only Lert t-e property io the possession of the deptor, but 281 allowed him te deal with and dis. pore of it $8 bis gyn”? And further:—‘‘Enough has en said to show that the mortgage waa fraudulent ia law as sgainst the creditors of I, the mortgegor; an* tho plaintiff should cither bave been nonsuited, or the Jory ehould havo been cireeted to find a vordict ‘for the defendants,” And again:—"fhe Judge alao told the jury thet they must pass upon the question, whether auflicient reason or excuse had been given for permit- ting B. (the m:rigagor) to have possession of the goods, when in truth no reason or excise whatever had boea iven or ofered. This was no better tuan tolling the fury tha: they might guess there was a good reason for the unchanged possession.” Upon both points. thea. I feel controlled by the cases quoted to deside against the pisiatitl and leavo him, if so adyised, to his action upon mortgage wheveyer any rights shall accrue to bim therefrom.

(From the Pittsburg Post, Oct. 3.] Yesterday afternoon, about two dvelock, a fre brake out in the fourta story of the large building on the cor- ner of Wood ané Front streets, occupied by B. A. Fahne stock & Co. ,as a wholerale drug store. It was discover ed almost immediateiy; but such was the combustible materisi with which the building was stored that all ef- fort to stay ita p 88 was futie, and the flames spread. with tho greatest rapidity over the who’. * y aoe none. Ya ten minutes favalved ja ms or thé fire the structure was entirely ity ics® and blaze, and threw forth toe most intense heat. Notwithstanding great uneasiness was felt at frst that there were articlés in the building which might cause an explosion, th're who came on the ground poured in axd worked with the most uncensing energy in sav- ing such articles es could be reached, whish, unfortu- Bately, owing to the swiftness of the flemes, did not amount to much: ‘The firemen were also on the ground early, and worked with a hearty good will, placing their éngines in tho most dangerous positions, and keaping them there until driven away by tho increasing heat. We are conadeat that if it hed not been for their unceasing efforts, the conflagration would have proved one of the most a- has ever visited us. After burning for abont half am hour, the tremendous heat cracked the walls, and they began to topple and tumble. First the wail on Front street foll down with a frementous noise, followed inmediately afte by, the reat wall, which fell upon and crushed a two sty brick house on Froxt street, oceupied by Robinson & Minis, as an office for their ongize works, Next the northern wall, overlooking the gians warenouse of M’Kee & Co., also came down, cfushlng in tho roof and destroying tho house to the second story, and ilkewlise injuring the roof of the building adjaccut, the comaissica store of H. it. Collins. :, Previews to the crushing in of the warehouse of M’Kee & Co, the firo proof quality of the roof had prevented the flames from communicating to it, but this protection Leirg pow cestroyod, the interior was quickly on fire, snd the greatést portion of their stock destroyed. Febrentock & Co's establishment was probably the srgest of the Bind in the eity, and their loss will tremely heavy. The building was erected a fow y ago, at 4 cost of about $16,000, and was insured for 29,000, ‘The stock was estimated at betwoen $50,000 and $75,000; on which, we beiieve, thore was over $59,000 ineuran‘e in difforent offices—$10,000 in the Royal Ton- don, $10,000 in the Western, $10 600 in tha Frankia, and $5,000 in the State Mutnal! the balanes im offices whoss names we could not secertain. The buildin cucupied by Robinion & Minis was owned by Mr. Wm. Noble, of strect; the damage on the houre will amount to about $1,000, completely covered by innzance in the Delaware’ Mutual. Robinson & pla? loss is but triding. M’Kee & Co. suffer to the amount of $2,500; insured in the Delaware Mutual for $5,000. The building was owned by Mra. bcDowell, and was insured for $3,590 in the North American, which more tham covers her Mrs. ¥oDowell also owned the building occupied by Mr. H. H Collins, on which, however, the loss is but sma!l. Mr. Collins, we understand, loses ucthing at all. A variety of rumors sre aftoat in regard to the origin of the fire. The most probable scems to be that it was caused by the explosicn of a small spit Iamp, made use of in the fourth story for welting sealing wax. Quite a number of females were employed in the build- ing, who were alarmed considerably, but who, wo are happy to say, escaped without susta! any iojury. Several gentiemen, howover, who were salting re. moving a1 3 out of the burning building, were not so fortunate. Dr. Fundendure, while passing ‘along front street, was struck upon the head with a heavy bale of cork, thrown from the second story, snd felled to the und. He was carried across to the St. Charles Hotel. is injuries were very serious, and, it is feared, may prove fatal. Two others, whos’ names we could not Ancertain, were slao hurt slightly by the falling of bricks and pieces of timber.
