GEN BENNETT -


We have the satisfaction to inform you that tho
Supreme Court has reversed the decision and
verdict of the Circuit Court OF this District in the
case of Stockton & Stokes, Mail Contractors.
vs. Amos Kendall, Postmaster General. You will
remember tina, Mr.. Kendall withheld the payment
OF large sum ($lOO. 900, or portion of ny from
Stockton d Stokes, because he believed the bill
exorbltant and unjust. The claim was tried and
proved to be valid, and damages were fixed upon
Mr. Kendall TO the amount Of III, 900, the sum Of
the interest which had accrued upon the bill re-
fused. Acting, as Mr.. Kendall did, for the CO.
vernment he did his duty, and the common sense
OF justice, with every man, will admit that the
damages upon him, az private individual, incur
red in the faithful discharge OF public trust were
not according to the spirit Of the law. We rejoice
at Mr.. Kendall's release from the prison bonds,
and the damages. Chief Justice Taney delivered
the opinion Of the Court


Latest trumor-Yancey was arrested in Baltimore
while waiting for the settlement of the terms of
the meeting. w.
