Damages against a Vigilance Committee. —Our readers will remember the case of Jas.. M. Thurmond, a lawyer, and at one time a resident of this place, where ho was frequent-, lj known as “ Beauregard.” At the time the Vigilantes of Virginia City, Montana Territory, were operating, Thurmond volunteered to act as counsel for one of the persons arrajgn-ed before the Committee. The Vigilantes were highly incensed, and notified him to quit the country within fifteen minutes. Thurmond replied, that, if his mule wouldn't buck, he didn’t want but five ! He left the country and went to Salt Lake, where he brought suit against a man by the Dame of Jeremiah M. Fox, one of the members of the Committee, and, we learn from private letter?, has lately recovered a judgment against him for $3214.28.
