Rhode Island rs. Massachusefis.-
Another decision, has been made in the
Supreme Court, in this case liz favor o.
Rhode Island. 1t will be remembered
that Massachusetts set up against the
claim of Rhode Island, the Roxbury and
Rehobolh agreements of l8lO-ll and
1917. These agreements, Rhode Island
contended, were obtained through mis-
representation or mistake. Massachu-
setts contended that, even if they were
50 obtained, yet the continued possession
of the territory gave her the right to it,
Upon this point the decision was made,
which, wo learn, like the first decision
has been given in favor of Rhode Island.
Unless some new preliminary question
can be raised, it seems now, that the
question must be tried upon the merits
of the case, upon which the decision will
of course be final.-Prop. jour.

full luxuriance at least it always seems so,)-
every gentleman who finds his hair growing too
