SUBSCRIPTION PAPERS.-The following
decision of Court in Rhode Island is important
Many persons have been imposed upon by the spe
cious and dazzling prospectusses circulated Tor lhe
publication of new works. which productions wher
they appeared have been found to correspond 10 nc
degree with the previous announcement, and Ire
quently to be absolutely worthless. Yet the sub
scribers have generally considered that insomuch
as they had entered their names, they were bound
TO pay for and receive them with all their imper-
fections.' The subsequent case detailed in the
Rhode Island American, shows that he who under
takes to publish, firmly bound TO fulfil his part
Of the contract as ne that subscrioes,
AT Justices Court held at the State House in
Newport, r. l. on the Sd inst. action was tried,
brought by Fenner VS.. Eddy, for the amount oil
subscriptions to a certain new and complete BIZ
ographical Dictionary, containing the lives and
character. Of 10000 persons of all countries, and
sketch Of living Characters The ground OF OBJ
Iection the part OF the defendant, was that the
volume did not correspond with the terms OF the
prospectus, That instead of giving the lives, or
even prominent incidents Of the lives, OF eminent
characters, it gave in many parts, only the date OF
birth and death that it was defective and errone-
Gus, and instanced the date of Perrys death and
the manner Of Murat's Massacre. That the pa
per was poor and the binding TOO slight to admit Of
us being useful book, even for referenCe-and that
The promised rontispiece OF 20 portraits was alto
gether deceptive, containing in no instance any
thing like likeness.
The plaintiff argued tina, the book was we'll bound
and prnttd--that it did contain the requisite num-
Der OF notices and sketches-,hat no subscriber
could have expected the whole lives of 10000
characters in duodecimo volume OF 400 pages
hat i was what the prospectus purported 1t TO be-
Dictionary, and that il contained notices of all
distinguished men from Adam (or he had looked
no farther) down to the present day. From Contu-
cius C'the Chinese Phosopher'') down to Logan,
{" the American Sasage'') and that the plaintiff
had conformed in all things to the prospectus and
thai it was cheap book at the price asked.
The Court, in giving its opinion, said that the
book did not answer the description given in the
prospectus-it was slightly and insuhicien,ly bound
was defective in portraits-in many instances in
stead of full biography Of individuals, it contained
the brief epi,aph oil I" born and died" naming the
years-that the case in the nature OF contract
both parties were bound to fulfil il. Judgment was
accordingly given for the defendant with costs, by
which decision, it is stated about forty subscribers
10 Newport will escape imposition.

From information recently received, we learn
that the commencement of the work on the Rarl'

stockholders to back out, and let the canal 60 un'
