A trial for breach of the marriage con-
tract, came on before the Supreme Judicial
Court in Boston. A report Ct this trial is
contained in the American Traveller of the
27th nit. from which is extracted the follow
ing particulars: The action was brought
by Miss Jerusha Day, daughter Of the late
Judge Day, of Wrentha;l, against Mr.. How
ard Mann, respectable young man, also OF
Wrentham; damages were laid at $1,000.
The parties had formed an engagement in
1892, which was broken off by the plaintiff,
on hearing several reports unfayourable to
Mr.. Mans character. The reports having
been ascertained to be groundless, in August,
1924, she sgnihed her wish to have an in
tervicw with him which was promptly ac-
cepted, and affairs appeared to be in fa-
vourabe train. The young lady had expend-
ed or 400 hundred dollars in household ar
ticles &c. and spent several days with the
mother and sisters of the defendant, who as
sisted her In making preparations for the
nnptals In January, 1925, the defendant
called upon the mother of the young lady,
during her absence, and informed her he
should decline marrying her daughter, stat
ing as his reason for declining, that he
thought he should be doing wrong in mar
rying her. On Mrs. Days expressing her
astonishment at his conduct, he said that his
mother was much distressed at it, and ad-
mitted that he had been well treated by the
plaintiff and her family. The witnesses or
the part Of the plaintiff were principally hel
mother, brothers. and sisters, whs appeared
to be deeply affected during the trial. Mr.
Warren Day stated that the defendant had

Erquisite.-A few days since, one of the
steam and pepper disciples of Thompson,
called at a store in the town Of Genoa, and
inquired the price Of an ounce of aqua forts.
The merchant mentioned the price per
pound, but demanded greater proportional
for an ounce, as it was troublesome to weigh
out SO small quantity, and was attended
with danger of burning the fingers. 'B4rn-
ing the fngersi' interrupted the quack-'no-
thing but ignorance makes you think so:
terrible idea these learned doctors have Civ
cn you; I'm not afraid to wash my hands in
it, If you will, replied the merchant, you
shall have enough to wash your hands and
an ounce of aqua fortis into the bargain.
The prospect of such immense gain over
came the scruples Of the quack and he as
sented to the proposal. A bottle Of aqua
fortis was taken down and poured bountiful-
y on his hands. He rubbed them and held
them to the stove to dry in, as he vaunting-
ly expressed it. The condition was fulfill
ed: the ounce of acid was weighed out and
given to him, and he left the store; not, how
ever, before he had exhibited some alarm
inc contortions Of countenance to the anus
ed, but half terrified vender of goods He
went home, put on his steam and pepper
applications; at last thought himself dying,
and sent for a regular physician. His hands
were found in deplorable state indeed; but
unfortunately for the community, were put
in train, which may, in time, restore to him
their use.-Boston Medical Recorder.

The gang Of marallders and robbers who
lately prowled in the ncighborhood of Phil
adelphia. to the infinite terror of the good
citizens who were obliged to travel, have
undoubtedly moved elsewhere in quest of acl-
venture. We hope the following is the clos
ing incident to the whole drama, which has
been enacted with so much industry. On
Saturday morning, Stout old farmer, not
distinguished for his courage, while travel
ing on the Norrstown road, Just before day,
on horseback, heard some one running on
foot after him and CRYING out"Ililoa stop" T"
The old gentleman concluded he was dead
man. His horse, like himself, had no cour-
age, for to run away, was an attempt far
beyond his powers, and too desperate meas
ure for Ro2na!.,c which has long since de-
clned into the vale Of years. The farmer
making a virtue ofnecessity dismounted, and
the moment his pursuer reached him, began
laying about him with his whip on the head
and back of the other, with vigor which
did him credit, but which no doubt, was the
result of his terror, Accompanying his op-
erations with obstreperous Giles of"Murderi
thieves! fire the devil help" it was not
until he had expended all his force and
strength, that he discovered that he had
been beating messenger who had been sent
after hm-his own flesh and blood in the
shape of--his son.
