,--YESTERDAY

(Before J. K. BLAIR, Esq., Judge.)
13ubL, .c.GNEW v. ... RITCHARD.—
A P This was a claim for .E 3 35.,
under the following circumstances :—The plaintiffs are
at, the well-known picture dealers, having rooms in the
-• 1 Liverpool and London Insurance Buildings, and the de-
xor sev fendant is a master pilot. About two years ago there
was a large painting exhibited at Messrs Agnew's rooms,
i the subject being "Wounded Soldiers from the Crimea."
e Mr. Pritchard paid a visit to the rooms, and, it was
tt d alleged, put his name down as a subscriber to an en-
t graving of that picture, the value of which was set
ti Gown at £3 3s. Mr. Walter, one of Messrs. Agnew's
v assistants, proved this fact ; and Mr. Williams, another
0
assistant, said that in the month of . February last
lf the defendant was in their rooms, examining a paint-
ing entitled "Florence Nightingale at Scutari." Mr.
F 2
le Pritchard, it was alleged, said at that time, " Oh,
osh I believe you have got my name down for another
A engraving." Mr. Williams replied that he had, upon
which. Mr. Pritchard said, " I was in hopes you had
B forgotten it." The print was issued, and on it being
taken to Mr. Pritchard he refused to receive it. The
Kpresent action was therefore brought to recover the
- value of it—L3-3s.- Mr- Hime, who-appeared for the
defendant, resisted the claim on two grounds. First,
tt
,e that it was not stated in the subscription' book what
tt print the defendant subscribed for, either artist's proof,
ra proof before letters, or proof after letters ; and that the
- plaintiffs might have sued for £lO 10s., the price
I 1 of the artist's proofs, and that, therefore, there should
15
have been a written contract. ;Another objection to the
AR are of the re' •
Washing Attaching • Juthee Which exists against Clothes' claim was this. "When the defendant was asked to
-mow a single trialln genyrai, the. Manufacturer is willing to

AND PASSP-
made under, the following circumstances :—The two
celebrated violinists happening to meet- last summer at
an, and general News, Market

,tly and on rgasonable terms, and violin, a Maggini, in his apartment, in the presence of
', or telegraph. Piatti and Seligmann, asked him if he felt inclined to
sell it. ' Yes,' answered M. de Beriot, ' but not for
NIGHTINGALE less than 20,0001.' Thereon M. Wienawski expressed
his desire to purchase it, notwithstanding the high
price, and M. de Beriot having- assured him that he
should .be most happy to see the instrument in his
possession, the young artist -asked permission to delay
his final answer till the coming winter, after his return
from Si. Petersburg."

DEATH OF AN OLD INDIAN CHIEF.—The Great
Spirit has released another of the aborigines from his
earthly tenement, and taken his spirit home. Con-
deaeon, the oldest chief of the Ontonagon band, died
last week. He was nearly 100 years old, being quite a
lad, and rememberingwell the first mining enterprise
undertaken in this county, near the forks of the Onto-
nagon, and in the vicinity of the famous " copper
rock." This mining was done under the superintend-
ence of Alexander Henry, at which time the subject
of our sketch was about ten years old. In the early
part of the present century he had, a terrible encounter
with a black bear, near the American landing, some
twelve miles above this village, the marks of which he
carried to his grave. When Ind on the bank of the
river he was almost dead, the flesh being so torn from
his back and sides as to expose the bones and ribs in
several different places, and life was despaired of for
some days, but his iron constitution finally overcame
wounds which any ordinary man must have sunk under,
and he recovered. His antagonist, a full-grown bear,
was found dead but a few rods from where the old chief
was picked up, his body being pierced in a number
of places, and finally through the heart, by his mortal
combatant.' Peace to the ashes of as noble an Indian as.
ever threw. a tomahawk or paddled a canoe.—Lake
Superior Journal.
MALICIOUS ATTEMPT TO INJURE WORKMEN.—On
Tuesday night, an attempt was made to cause injury to
the workmen employed by Mr. Robert Wrigley, brick-
maker, Coldhnrst, Oldham. On that day a quantity of
clay was got ready for use by Mr. Wrigley's men, none of
whom are in the brickmakers' union, and when they ceased
work a number of planks were laid over the tempered
clay to protect it from the weather. The next day the
men who were about to mould the clay into bricks re-
moved the planks, and were about to use the clay when one
of the men observedsomething shining in it. An examina-
tion was made, and it was discovered that a great
quantity of broken needles, such as are sometimes used
by cabinet makers for smoothing down their work, had
been mixed amongst the clay, which had thus been
rendered useless. The men dare not attempt to use
the clay amongst which needles have been placed, be-
cause of the serious injury which might be done to their
hands by .the needles. Recently the same malicious
deed was done at Mr. Holt's brickyard, Higginshaw,
and- two of his men who tried to work up some of the
clay,, were hurt in their hands and had to cease work.
One of them has .been off work nine weeks, and it is
doubtful whether he will recover the use of his hand.
HOTEL ROBEERIES.—A man who is believed to have
been visiting various hotels in this' country, and also in
Dublin, has. fortunately been caught in Manchester,
where he had commenced his nefarious operations in the
same line.. On Monday afternoon he went to the
Commercial Hotel, Brown-street, where he slept, and
on Tuesday morning contrived to carry off a travelling
rug belonging to the landlord, and a cape, mantle,
and other things belonging to Martha Hill, a servant.
On Tuesday night he took up his abode at the
Angel Inn, Market-street. On Wednesday morning,
when going out, the fringe of a travelling rug was
noticed which belonged to a gentleman who had only
been there about an hour, and the man was stopped. A
policeman was sent for, who took him into custoday. It
WWI found that several of the articles stolen from the
Commereial. Hotel had been pledged, but they were
recovered and identified by the_ owners. The prisoner,
who called himself William Johnson, was committed to
the session's for trial.
'A letter from St. Petersburg of the 20th says :—" The
great event of the day is the (definitive retirement from
business of the celebrated banker, ,Steiglitz. He, yes-
terday,' sent an official letter ordering his agent, M.
Felersen, to wind up: the business of the house before
the Ist January, 1860; on which day it swill
cease -to exist. M. Steiglit; has- taken part in all
the great financial affairs of the _Government,
and alsb possesed manufactories, sugar refineries,
&c. - Steiglitz, sen., arrived in -Russia about
fifty years ago ; he came from Hamburg, and was a Jew
by birth, .but changed to Protestantism. Immediately
after his arrival in Russia he entered into business, and
founded the house which he 'bequeathed to his son,
with the title of baron and a fortune of 30,000,000 f.

—The late Rev. Sohn Skinner, long episcopal clergyman
of Forfar, was first appointed to a charge in Montrose,
from whence he was,removed to Banff, and ultimately to
Forfar.' After he had left Montrose, it reached his ears
that an ill-natured 'insinuation was circulating in Mont-
rose that he had-been findueed to leave this tow* by (the
temptation, of abetter *Me and of, fat pork, which, it,
would appear, was plentiful in the locality of his pew
incumbency. Indignant at such an aspersion, he wrote
a letter, directed to nialig,ners, vindicating himself
sharply from it, wklieb, he showed ,to grandfather, the
well-known rev. rod, accomplished poet ~of the same
nanie,2 for his approval. The old gentleman objected to
it as too lengthy,u'nnd proposed the following pithy
