decided in most novel way. A coat
was in dispute. aud the evidence was di
rect and positive lor both claimants. the
pullies were Irish aud full OF the right
grit, ready To spend all they had rather
than give up beat The affair had been
carefully examined aud the court was in
a qnandary, not knowing who had the
best claim 10 the garment. However, a
moment before his honor was to sum up
the evidence. Patrick Power one of the
claimants, made the following prnpo
sitinn for sstlling the affair. Said Pat.

The HARPERs BEATEN.-Harpers Magazine for
The advertisement announcing it describes its lite
rary merits and claims on public patronage with 3
great Aouriih, and particularly socits attention to
the fact that its publishers have expended fifteen
hundred dollars editors and authors tor this single
number. Now the Harpers are very excellent and
thrifty men-pious withal-and they are also very
economical individuals, and pretty cute in various
ways Even this very announcement which they
make, Of having expended fifteen hundred dollars on
the September number Of their magazine shows that
they have not rs extensive notions Of liberality
even as . two-cent paper. On many occasions
. single copy of the NEW YORK HERALD, which
may be purchased for two cents, has cost us moro
than fifteen hundred dollars; and, on one OCCASION
the expense of . single number of the HERALD
reached rs high as two thousand five hundred
dollars We would advise our respected cotempo-
rares, in their recent novel efforts for American
literature, and particularly in the circulation OF
their new magazine, not to take to themselves too
much credit for extraordinary lberality to American
authors and artists, until thoy beat us at the
same weapons. Estimating a single number, cost
iug Us two thousand five hundred dollars to get up
aad sold at two cents copy, We leave it to their
arithmetical computation to find out how much, in
the same ratio, single number Of their magazine,
sid at twenty.iv cents copy, ought to cost
them, before they can have any pretensions TO
boast Of Gberality in their expenditure.

HARVARD UNIVERSITY AND LITERARY HoNoRs.-
We rec 1t stated that Harvard University has con-
forred the literary degree Of A. N. on Freeman
Hunt, editor Of one Of the magazines Of this city
This was hbefal and generous act on the part Of
Harvard College, and was well bestowed But We
have plenty Of other candidates for the same ho-
nor, who would be also very excellent and deserving
recipients Of the gift, and who furnish the Univer-
sity Of Harvard with more opportunities Of extend
ing their generosity and benefactons 10 the literary
public. We have a number Of editors and attaches
Of penny and Sunday papers, and Of journals Of va
ous kinds in this city, who, In point of talents and
qualifications, are equally entitled 10 the honorable
appendsge Of A. M. TO their names as the late no
cipient Freeman Hunt. We trust the college will
take the matter into consideration, and send few
more Of their diplomas in this direction.
