Place & Co., wholesale grocers in New York, (lie Supreme Court of the United States yester- day rendered a decision of great importance in reference to transfers of property by husbands to wives. It is in substance that a man i n a prosperous businens who may purchase real es- tate out of profits and transfer said property to bis wife, may be helo, in the event of subse- cpient failure, to have withdrawn funds to which an assignee in bankruptcy may lay claim in be- half of creditors. While in Providence, R. I., Presicient ffayes slept under a bed quilt which was made in the year 1787, by a direct ancestor of Mr. William Ellery, who was the signer of the Declaration of Independence from Rhode Island. The quilt had never been used since it covered the form of President Washington, on the occasion of his last visit to Newport just after the Rev- olution. The owners refused to allow it to be used by President Jackson when he visted the -state. The (irand Jury of New York County have found an indictment against Oakey S.
