To this bili an auswer was wlea by the ankles to the effect that when Vankle conrerst the property to Isaacson, Vankle did not owe the lainiiits any money and did not become judgment reditors of his until March 26, 1870; and that the con ‘Vveyauce to Isaacson was made in pursuance of an agreement made priot to November 1, 1869, by which @ cash payment of 32,0,0 was io be made by Isaac- son to Dankle on the delivery of the deed, and Isaac. fon was to give promissory notes to Dankle and make other paymeuts, secured 3 mortgage.

Dankle from Making any transter of sald real estate and from encumbering the same, and a receiver will be ap- inted of said real estate and of ail the property, quitable interests, things in action and effects oi inkle. If notice of the motion 13 not necessary as Stiner and Heller, the receivership will extend their property. ‘Thomas Simons, Assistant District Attorney, for the plaintias; Jonn Winslow for Dankle and wife.

On Wednesday Might Schaid retired to bed as usual, and at six o'clock yesterday morning Mr. Jacoby heard the report oi B putas but, being unable to te whence tt came, concluded the firing was in the street, and thought nothing more about it. Two hours later Mr. Jacoby peeped through the keyhole in the door Of Schatd’s room, and saw him lying on the bed, On pe bind the room Mr. Jacoby found that Schaid a Soe Lar BREAST istol, which lay at his left it is thought, must have SHOT HIMSELF IN with a double barrelled pi Side in the bed, Death, ensued almost instantly.

SMiTH.—On Sunday las. a new-made grave at Woodiawn received the mortal remains of a woman whose life and character suggest thoughts and re- flections that rise lar above tne range of the unpre- tending pen of humble friendship. Many a name of mierlor illustrative power and interest has beem embaimed in the imperishable records of the his- toric muse, Alas! tue cemeteries of our land enclose 4 nume- rous army ot the unrecorded heroines of private Ite; but the captain of that host of noble womem was the late Mrs. Murray F. Smith, of Alabama. Even her enemies (for such characters seem not to live without them) will concede this distinction to her memory. Heroism, indeed, was her birthright, the trans- Mitted inheritance of her blood. The conquering will, the indomitable energy, the unquenchavie spirit that animated, sustamed and bore her tri- umphantly through all the aims of her life, Synting: with dauntiess resolution and defying death the grave through long years of physical suffering — almost unparalieled in human ea icomen these brave qualitiescame to her by lineal descent from a sire who had illustrated them in the legislative history and engraved them on the battlefields of his country. It 13 not, however, admiration for these high and grand properties of character that draws forth this passing tribute to her memory, but rather the love and recognition of the humbler beaaty common excellence of the American wife an mother, a8 exhibited in the graceful courtesies social life, the elegant hospitalities of a kind and benignant spirit, and, above all, in the great in- tegrity and unbroken constancy of enduring friena- ship.
