A RAILROAD com pax V found itself in court iu Judge James P. Sterritt's district the Fifth at Pittsburg, about the election of offi ers for the company. A number of stockholders desired to vote under the Cumulative system, as provided by the new Constitution. The election board would not receive the votes, and for not thus receiving them the case was taken into court. Judge iMenctt rendered a decision that i-quares with the cumulative system. The decision is too lengthy for our col umns this issue. We publish such a part of it as expresses the interpreta tiun the Judge gives to the law : " The act of l'J;h February, 1S49, which regulates the right of voting fur directors, provides "that each share of the stock shall entitle the bolder thereof to oue vote." This does not mean sim ply one tingle vote and no more. It uieaus one vote each fur the number of directors to be elected. It, for exam ple, the board to be elected consists of twelve directors, the holder of a share is authorized to cast one vote for each of the twelve, or twelve votes iu all. One vote is separately couuected for each of the twelve voted fur. This is practically twelve rotes. Thus, also, if the stockholder has ten shares be is authorized to cast ten votes for each one of the twelve to be elected, or one hundred and twenty single votes in all. So that, io point of fact, the whole number of separate votes that each Hharebolder is actually entitled to cast, under the act of 1849, is ascertained by multiplying the nuu.ber of shares be bold by the uuinber of persons to be elected ; but he cannot cast more votes, for each pon to be elected, than be ha? shares of stock. Tha change sought to be introduced by the section under consideration was to enable each shareholder, if he chooses, to consolidate liis single votes and cast the whole number " fur one candidate or distribute them upon two or more caudidatee as be may pre'er." What i really meant, then, by the phrase 'the whole number of his votes" in the nw constitution is not one single vote for each share of stock, but as many rotes for each share as there are direc tors to be elected. The language em ployed is fairly susceptible of this c-m- Uructiou. and this, taken iu connection l with what was manifestly the under standing of the framers of the consti tution, leads u tu the conclusion that those stockholders wbo chi.4 to tender six votes for each of tbe relators for ,ch share of stock held by them bad, ;of the . ection erred in refusing to receive tie volet so tendered News .Items A ' : A little child five vesf 'M, dattgb ter of Michael Siuininn, fifing bear the Van Storeh Shaft, Scraotoo, yoked stick into the itove whiU her mother was out on a spree, on Friday week, and set fire to her clothing, which Was barned from her body, and her flesh literally roasted.

The young ma sought to tease the fe line by tickling her ears with a small stick, and the animal, becoming iufuri. a ted, sprang at him and fastened her fangs on him, iuflictiog a small but deep bite. Murray thought nothing of the matter until within a few days, and the wound caused biui no inconveni ence, A few days ago, however, hia wound began to ache, and in a short time the aching was followed by sharp stinging paios, which rendered him al niont insaue with agony.

Mrs. Billman was robbed of about $2,100, none of which bas been recovered. The Ilolidaysburg Register of some days ago says a deaf and dumb boy, aged 16 years, son of Mr. Elias Moore, uf Scotch Valley, took his axe, aud proceeded to Brush mountain, to gath er pine knots. Whilst proceeding along, a she bear confronted him iu his path, in a threatening manner, when young Moore turned upon it, and struck it a blow with bis axe, across the scout cutting it half way through, at the first blow the bear being stunned, the boy soon killed it with other blows with bis axe. He returned home and informed his father of the fact, and the next day tbey proceeded to the spot, a very un frequented place, and there sure enough was bruin, lying dead, from the wounds upon Ler, made by the courageous boy with the axe.
