For two miles on each side ot tnese roaus the people had been taxed heavily to make tuem, and he tuougbt it unjust that ibis should be done, while those lurther Irom the line ot the road pay nothing.

Mr. fON D urged the nissaae of the bill. and stated that the m tnorial sent in some days contained a majority of tbe actual tax-payers ol the t iwnship. lhis bill authorizes tbe trustees to levy the necessarv tax. Mr. ACKER thought the passage of such bill would open a door to endless legisla tion on that subject. 1 be yeas and uays were called, and re sulted yeas 65, nays 19. - So the bill passed. Mr. s. B. 270 To authorize the election ot an additional judge of the Court of Common Pleas in the county of Cuyahoga, was read the third time. Mr. DUN N IS said petitions from nearly every member of the bar of Cuyahoga bad been read, asking tor this additional judge.

The Cincinnati and Whitewater Canal Company, et al. Error to the Common Pleas of Hamilton county, reserved in the District Court. welch, J, held : 1. The owner of land, who stands by, without objection, and sees a public railroad constructed over it, cannot, after tbe road Is completed, or large expenditures have been made thereon upon the faith ol hisapparentacquiescer.ee, reclaim the land. or enjoin Its use by the railroad company. lu tu.in case there can only remain to the owner a right ol compensation. 2. As a general rule, the property or a corporation is a trust fund tor tbe benefit of Its creditors and stockholders, and they may. In all cases where it has been fraudulently or wrongfully disposed of by tbe directors, pursue it iuto tbe hands of purchasers with notice, and assert their Hen upon it, or their claims for its value. 3. A railroad company having purchased a majority of the shares of stock in a canal company, elected for the latter a board of directors who were in tbe interest of the railroad company, and then, with tbe assent of said board, appropriated the entire canal and property of the canal company as a railroad track, paying therefor a price or compensation whicli was agreed upon by the directors of the two eompauies, but which was tar below the actual value of the property. Held : That, although tbe stockholders and creditors ot the canal company cannot, after the road has been completed, reclaim the property, or enjoin its use, yet they are not concluded by such agreement, so tar as regards the price oi the property, but may, by action, compel tbe railroad company to account for its additional value. 4. The rule of valnation in snch cases is what the interest of the canal romnanv was worth, not for canal purpose merely,' or tor any otber particular tue, but what it was worth generally tor any aud all uses tor which it might to be suitable.

Bkimerroff, J. HelJ 1. A parol contract for a new or snpple mental lea--e between a landlord and his tenant, in possession under a former and subsisting lease, is within the statute ol frauds; and the continued possession ol the teuaut does not take til parol contract out of the operation ol the statute, where the continued possession of the tenant is as well r I'erable to the first lease as to the second parol lease.
