Oit orldenoo pf tho Justice of tho claim:
was tho duty of tho Mayor to pay
a Judgment without u order from 1 tho
ayor or Controller. Therewas no pretense
*** ® ot sufficient funds of tho
oity In his huds unappropriated to uy other

«that sued for; and tho Judgment
of tpo Court wu;justly eonsldored to bo'tho
; /pptopriatlon of so much of the general
fund, u wu necessary to satisfy the domahd;
consequently U wu entitled to bo paid Onto
aay mojnoy.in the treasury, and the first tha
should bo received to H t without any- farther
order of the officers of the corporation; lAn
answer of the Treuurer that euoh money wu
necessary for more Importont purpose!, and to
rapport the government of the city in the ex
erdje of Its functions, oould bo no objection
to the appropriation mode by the jadgmont of
the Court. .< By the theory of that ease, the
■Treasurer had euffideat foods in hl| hands to
pay au thor demands, and the only question
whether the Jadgmont of the Court wu
not itself a specific appropriation of that
amount to thatpurpose. There wu n(rdafaaU
in the City Council*. They had furnished
means; the only difficulty wu in the Treasur
ers refuel to pay. ■■• i,
...The case before us has no resemblance to
that of rMonaghan.: Here the Treuurer has
funds’? to-his hands, not
any appropriated to the paymehc of these do
;msnds. The judgment of the Courtis not an
appropriation of that which qru appropriated
beiomhond, by virtue of the statute, or aots
of Councils* -It is clear that the special funds
erdtttdby the statutes -to be paid lnto : the
sinking fund were “appropriated,” and child
not by uy act of ‘the.Couri be/'juriyusd d*d
appropriated”■: to a different purpose. Sot
eon I make any definition or tnoee -term*
which would not also apply to the Appropria
tions made for other panoses. Tho writ au
thorised by tha statute does not.moke a new
appropriation of- fond*, In the hands of the
Treuurer, at the expense of others,bat offset*
only such as ore unappropriated to other spo
ols! purposes. 1 1 wu properly decided In tho
com of Pollock ys. Lawrenoo county, {Legal
Journal, No. 47*)-that tho. tsUmato of tho
Commissioners, no to the funds needed for the
eomtog year, whether right or wrong, wu not
anjippropriatidn* > .of them tg.pay any portlc
• alar debt due by thecoanty, consequently the
judgment of the ’Court wos the first appropri
ation, and should have precedence; 1;
The definition there given of the term“Lp-:

•we of eiouy for .« parftcular purposs/lias
givtnby : the learned Judge, Is undoubtedly
ojrreet, and according to it the auwer of tho.
Treasurer is true, not only In Us assertion of
facts, but-to its Inference ;of the law. The
funds committed to his care were appropriated
and set apart for oertoin special objects, and
consequently he had no unappropristedfunds
with which to .satisfy the exigency of tho pro
eesi served on him, nor oould ho, under exist-'
leg circumstances, have any. If theusess
ments ore increased by order of the Connell*
to an-amount sufficient, to pay their debts,
being of tho came orderu the old debu, and
tho Treuurer should have funds from taxes
in his bands, and would .not apply them to
the judgments, tho writ might ric» interfere
to compel him to appropriate the money as It
came to hi*.; hands to their payment.: ilf

Gen. Bigel upon bls ow'o request under
went a critical examination into the nature of
: charges which-he had preferred against Gen.
McDowell last ’ Saturday. He did not mean
to impeach the latter's loyalty, bat to point
oat though unwillingly; the occasions when
Gen. MoDoweU, In his judgment, displayed
incapacity, lie gave reasons which induced
such opinion, referring to McDowell's con
duct at Thoroughfare Gap, - l ~
He states the bulk of McDowell's army was
encamped; but a ihortdbtance therefrom;
that the roads were good, and the only force
required to hold It would have been about ten
.thousand men. Those might have, easily re
tarded the enemy for a ttey, and so have ut
terly deranged Mi movements. He also
charged upon MoDoweU a wontof attention
to the position of Ms (Sigel's) corps, with
whieh MoDoweU was at that time co-opera

that coald be shown was treating with cour

read the resolutions passed by tbe Legislature,
