The Longest Lawsuit on Record.

The London Globe says that the longest
lawsuit ever heard of in England was that be-
tween heirs of Sir Thomas Talbot, Viscount
l'Islc, on the one part, and the heirs of Lord
Berkeley on the other respecting certain poses
sions not far from Wootcn-under-Edg in the
county Of Gloucester Itcommenced at the end
of the reign of Edward w., and was depend
ing till the reign of James I, whena compromise
took place-l3o years litigation. The original
disputants were Thos. Lord LIsIc and William
Lord Berkeley, and in their age the decision of
the sword being more regarded than the author
ity of the law, the two noblemen, with their
followers, met in deadly encounter at Wooten-
undsr-Edge, in 1868, when Lord LIsle recev.
ed 4 mortal wound from an arrow shot through
his mouth. But this appeal to battle did not
settle the question, the slow law kept hold Of
the question fora century hence.

The MARCH OF LU1URY.-It is said that
American nabobism is eclipsing the European
noblesse in the magnifcence of its entertain
ments. We hear Of a single soiree uptown
costing fifteen thousand dollars-of party
where one thousand dollars were paid for flow
ers, and of other like extrayagances. The sa-
looms of one splendid mansion are described
as being decorated and furnished far more gor-
geously than the apartments assigned to Queen
Victoria when she visited the late King Of the
French, at Versailles. Well, what of it! 1t
some of our men Of wealth choose to ape the
splendor and exclusive airs Of the privileged
classes abroad, whose business is it but their
own! Midas has special license from the gods
to wear the ears Of an ass. Wehear that rules
Of precedence are about to be adopted by our
aristocracy, similar to those by which the gra.
des of society are marked out and regulated
abroad. Pork will yield to cotton, and cheese
will take the wall of tobacco.-N. Y. Sunday

FEMALE Soc1ErY.-You know my opinion,
of female society. Without it, we should de-
generate into brutes. This observation ap.
plies with tenfold force to young men, and
those who are in the prime Of manhood. For,
after certain time Of life, the literary man may
make shift "a poor one granD to do with
out the society Of ladies'. To q young man,
nothing is so important rs a spirit Of devotion
(next to his Creator) to some amiable woman,
whose image may occupy his heart; guard it
from pollution, which besets it.on all sides. A
man ought to choose his wife, as Mrs. Prim-
rose did her wedding gown, for qualities that
swear WELL" One thing at least is true, that if
matrimony has its cares, celibacy has no pleas
ure. A Newton, or mere scholar may find
employment in study; man Of literary taste
can receive in books powerful auxiliary; but a
man must have bosom friend, and children
around him, to cherish and support the dreari-
ness Of old age.-John Randolph.

SQUEEZING HAHDs-By Lady.-What An
immense difference it makes who squeezes
ones hand! A lady may twine her arm
around your waist, press kiss on your brow;
or holding your hand in hers, toy with your
fingers to her hearts content, but you are per-
fectly calm and collected, and experience no
unusual sensations, either disagreeable or 9TH
erwse. Perchance gentleman whom you
dislike or feel but slightly acquainted with,
ventures to press your hand; you snatch it
quickly away, and indignant blood mounts to
your forehead, and with flashing eyes, you
wonder show the impertinent fellow dares to
do such thing" Rather an antiquated spe-
cimen Of humanity squeezes your hand, you
feel mortified for yourself and him, mortified
that man of his years should make such
fool of himself that he should think you can
really like such nonsense and above all, that
he believes it possible that you can like him;
you are vcxed at what he has done, and deter
mined that IN opportunity shall never be Of
fered him of doing so again.
You place your hand confdingly in that of an
accepted, acknowledge lover; you are not ex-
cited or confused, you have ceased blushing
continually in his his presence, you experience
feeling of quiet happiness, "little heaven
upon earth sort of feeling" you arc perfectly
contented with everything in this terrestrial
world, especially your lover and yourself; and
yet, withal, it is feeling, us you sit with his
arms twned around you-that manly arm
which is to guard and support you through
life; soft, rosy, happy tint suffuses your face,
as your hand is clasped in his; ah, it is q
bissful, foolish feeling
But let some one whom you like very much,
not an accepted lover, but one who may, per-
haps, be one, one of these days, gently enclose
your hand in his own; what a strange, wild,
joyful, painful feeling thrills through you
The hot blood leaps, dancing, tumbling through
your veins, rushes to your fngers-ends! your
heart goes bump, pump; surely, you think, he
must hear it throbbing! for the life of you,
you cannot speak. After letting your hand
remain in his jus. long enough to show you
are not offended, you gently withdraw it;
but perchance it is taken again; after faint
"don't do So, which is answered with still
closer pressure, with downcast eyes and blush
ing cheek, you let the little hand, this first
bright earnest Of other things to come, thrill
ling and burning with this new ecstatic emo
ton, remain all tremblingly in its resting
place.-Homc Journal. a4 .s..

MARR1AGE.-Steeles says. wherever woman
plights her troth, under the Sky of heaven, at
the domestic hearth, or Id the consecrated
aisles, the ground is holy, the spirit ofthe hour
is sacramental. That it is thus. felt even by
the most trivial, may be Observed at the mar
riage ceremony. Though the mirth may be
fast and furious before or after the irreyocable
formula is spoken, yet at that point sof time
there is shadow on the most laughing lp-a
moisture in the firmest eye. Wedlock, indis-
soluble, except by an act Of God-a sacrament,
whose solemnity reaches to eternity-wiA al
ways hold its rank in literature, as the most
impressive fact of human experience in dEa.
matric writing. whether of the stage or clossts
the play or novel. 1t must be SO. If governs
ment, with all its usurpations and aggressions,
has appropriated history, let the less ambitious
portions Of our literature be sacred to the af-
fections-to the family based upon conjugal
and parental love, as that institution is the
state which, hitherto in the worlds annals, has
been little else than the sad exponent of hu-
man ambition.

sual of it to parents, who will profit by it.:

have been an observer, as | am a sympa-
thsing lover of boys. like to see them happy,
cheerful, gleesome am not willing that they
be cheated out of the rightful heritage ofyouth
indeed, I can hardly understand how high
toned useful man can be the ripened fruit of a
boy who has not enjoyed fair share of the
glad privileges due to youth. But when |
watch with very jealous eye all rights and
customs which entrench upon the proper rights
of boys, am equally yapprehensive lest parents,
who are not fdie-thoughuul, and who have not
habituated themselves to close observation up
on this subject, permit their sons indulgences
which are almost certain to result in their de-
moralization, if not in their total ruin; and among
the habits which have observed as tending
most surely TO ruin: l know of none more
prominent than that Of parents permitting their
sons to be in the streets after nightfall. 1t is
ruinous to their morals in all instances-they
acquire under the cover of the night, an un-
healthful and excited state of mind; bad, vulgar,
immoral and profane language, obscene practi-
ces, criminal sentiments, a lawless and rotous
bearing; indeed it is in the street after nightfall
that the boys principally acquire the education
of the bad and capacity for becoming rowdy,
dissolute, criminal men. Parents should in this
particular have most rigid and intlexble rule,
that will neverpermit son, under any circum-
stances, whatever, to go into the street after
nightfall, with view of engaging in out Of
door sports or meet other boys for social or
change occupation. A rigid rule of this kind,
invariably adhered to, will soon deaden the
desire for. such dangerous practices. Boys
should be taught to have pleasures around the
family centre table in reading, in conversation,
and in quiet amusements. Boys, gentlemens
sons, are seen in the street after nightfall, be-
having in manner entirely destructive Of all
good morals. Fathers and mothers, keep your
boys at home at night, and see that you take
pains to make your homes pleasant, attractive,
and profitable to them and, above all with
view of their security from destruction, let
them not become, while forming their chafac-
ters; for life, so accustomed to disregard the
moral sense of shame, as to openly violate the
Sabbath day, indulging in street pastimes, du-
ring its day or evening hours.-A Friend Of the
Boys.

Our TYPE -MAKER.-In noticing, yesterday,
the recent change of types upon which the Sun
is printed, we omitted 10 pay a tribute we'll and
Justly merited by the type founder who pro-
duced it. Printers, especially, cannot but re-
cognise great improvement in the face Of the
new types over that of those recently cast off,
particularly in the type used in the advertising
department. Indeed, its eyenness and general
beauty may be marked by those who seldom
notice such things.
The greatest perfection in type making is
reached In Scotland-that 10, in the original
formation of the letters-and if q printer can
be assured of a "genuine scotch.face," he feels
secure of something really good. In publishing
The Sun, we have had much difficulty in pro-
curing type which combined all the requisites
of eyenness, deep cut, and hard metal. Under
the attention of II. H. Green who was made
our types for the last two, years, we have been
enabled to use superior species of metal, capa-
bic Of fifty per cent more wear than the ordina-
nv kind, and now he has produced ascotch-faced
Agate, the matrices of which were made in, and
imported from Scotland, expressly for The Sun.
This, for eyenness and deep cut, can scarcely he
surpassed.
Printers who examine our paper during this
week, or before the types are fairly worn out,
remembering that an allowance should be made
for The appearance of one of 10000 sheets
printed in single hour, when criticising the
tyne, will need no futher endorsement from US
Of Mr. Green's capabilities as type founder.
Beyo1ld. this we can commend him for fair deal
inc and for his excellent machinery, which en-
ables him to produce the best Of type at a less
cost than most ofhis competitors. His assort-
ment ID large, and worthy of examination. His
wareroom and Office are at 1913 Fulton street.
