SEDUCTION-haw vs.. Williams.

Mr.. Phillips, in ford speech stated
this case TO the jury. II was an acton
brought by the father of Miss Jane Shaw
"a master carpenter) against Mr.. Williams,
the son of an opulent tanner, for the cost
Of maintaining the daughter during her ly-
| ing in, &c. she having been seduced by Mr..
Williams.
Miss Shaw (who appeared in the wit
ness-box showily dressed) said she had
known the defendant when they were
children, and the acquaintance was renew
ed at Greenwich i'm 1918. He followed
her about, and in 1919, on his promising
! to marry her when he came of axe she
yielded to his wishes. In 1920, she was
delivered of son, her father bearing the
expenses. She used to meet the defen-
dant IN Lee grove, near the Church. She
now keeps little shop at Greenwich
! She swore the child 10 the Defendant, who
paid so guineas.
| Mr.. Brougham, for the Defendant adj
dressed the jury in a speech which excited
much mirth in Court. Adyerting to the
seduction Of Miss Shaw, he said, she who
bad just been represented az pure even in
heart--who did not even know what evil
| meaDt--nho preserved an infantilc purity
in the years OF wonanhood; gave up her
priceless virtue ON being asked for it--not
in some scquestered spot sacred 10 nymphs
and Naiads, the creatures of more ethe-
real world, whicIwe read Of in the poets
and Mr.. Phillips speeches, but in the plain
highway There did they meet the
faithful horse held on one arm Of the Sc
Queer, and the ".Iendcr flower" hanging
with all her tendmls ON the other. IRE

pare-to think oaf the conduct OF this girl, |
and of the parents, who had waited for
three years before they commenced pro-
cee,:ings and he, was assured they would
either find a verdict for the Defendant, or,
if they thought they must give the Plain
tiff something, would tender her the low
est aud basest coin--symbol of worthless
ness and impudence---as the reward Of this
most frivolous and brazen.faced action.
Mr.. Justice Best told the Jury, that if |
they believed she was.as ready as the De
PENDANT, and had shown an entire want Of
delicacy and feeling, they should give only |
the smallest damages.
The jury, after consulting for some |
time, asked what damages would carry |

that any damages would carry costs in !
this form Of action. The jury found |
verdict for the PlaintiG-Damage 4Os.

lowing complimentary manner:
LET us turn our eyes to the United
States Of Ameriea-a country which pre-
SCENTS the beau ideal of human institutions,

Saddle and Harness Making
Patent Elastic Saddles.

WORD TO THOSE WHO ARE FoND OF EAsf
The complaint against hard and uneasy
saddles, which is for the most part a just
and general one, and is really a great grIe-
vance 10 those Who have much riding 10
do, has caused BIN TO turn his mind par
ticulsrly to that subject, with a view, il
possible, to remedy the evil. He can
with confidence assure the public that be
has accomplished it. The plan projected
is by means OF strong AID well tempered
steel springs, so constructed as to support
the saddle seat and give much greater ease
TO both rider and horse, than saddles made
in the common way or any other that ne
has ever seen can possibly do. The plan
is entirely different from the English elas-
tic saddles with spring bars OF steel,
wbalebone, &c. and also from those with
wire springs, and he conceives much SUI
perior to either, as the elasticity is great.
err, and the tree not being put out OF its o.
riginal form, will not be SUBJECT to hurting
horses on journeys, which is complained
OF in the saddles with spring bars. A
number of gentlemen have those saddles
now in use, and but one sentiment exists
among them in favor OF their superiority.
The invention is equally as applicable TO
LADIES' saddles as to gentlemen's. In
point Of d~urabiiry they will be warranted
equal to any other saddles and superior 10
