That there is peculiar providence that watches
over drunka:ds, is old observation, that meets
with fresh illustrations every day. We find singu-
lar one in a French paper:-

drunken fit was seized with the dangerous whim of
seating himself on the outer window ledge of his
chamber on the fourth floor of house in the Rue ST.
Denis. The consequence was obvious. The drunk

This was action brought recover Sl70.36 the
amount of note given to Jackson, the extensive
English bookseller by Peter Hill g. Go, booksellers,
and endorsed by Marsh and Williams.
Mr. Halle L for the defence swore that he was the
Co. Of the firm of Peter Hill a. Co.. that at the
time Of the panic they owed Mr.. Jackson about $500
Her paid Mr.. j. one half and gave him notes for the
other half endorsed by Marsh Il Williams on this
Mr. Jackson gave up him the notes he held of Peter
Hill Co, with this proviso that if the notes
were not paid he, Hazeti should return the old notes
of Hill d Co. TO the amount then due. AT the time
the new notes became due Mr.. H. paid all but one
note for Sl70 sc, and offered 10 give Mr. J. back
note of Peter Hill & Co. for S202 This Mr. Jackson
refused-because as MrH said, he wanted to get pos
session of valuable set plates, comprising Mead
owls French and English Dictionary valued at
80 800 and for which so 700 had been paid He then
brought this suit against Marsh & Williams.
Mr.. Blunt said that the defence novel that
he was not prepared for it, and must submit to a
dict and move for a new trial.
The jury found for the defendant.
