A NOVEL CAsE.-The trial of Thomas Ad-
ans, sheriff of Norfolk county, for viola ton of
the license law by selling quantity Of liquor
at auction which he had attached on an execu-
ton, took place before Justice Churchill of
Milton on Wednesday. The act of sale being
proved, the officer put in his return on the
execution, in justification, and stated that the
sale complained Of was made in the discharge
of his official duty. The magistrate held that
although the return on the execution was in
due form Of law, it was no justification, and
ordered the sheriff to pay fine of $40 and
costs, to give bonds in $1,000 to sell no MORE
and to stand committed until the Judgment
was complied with. AS the sherif-after sta
ting that he had acted in the case only in the
discharge of his duty as a sheriff, and that he
was under $4,000 bonds, besides being sworn
to do that-refused to comply with the iudg-
ment, mittimus was made out and placed in
the hands of the coroner for his commitment.
On Friday morning application was made to
the full bench of the Supreme Court by the
counsel for Mr.. Adams, fer a writ Of ha5eas
corpus. The writ was accordingly issued, di-
recting the coroner, in whose hausls the mitt-
mus was placed, to appear before that court,
and bring with him the body of the defendant.
A hearing or the writ viii take place early this
week.

This new leguminous plant, which it seems
is bean rather than apea, has been very high

of our New England Agricultural publications.
Mr.. Peticolas speaks quite disparagingly Of it
He says he raised it, last year on rather poor
ground, where it produced at the rate of six
teen bushels to the acre. In good ground, .

to yield t,oenty Bushels He says further:
"With respect to its qualities for the table
there is not much to say in its favor. When
green it is so difficult to divest of the hull,
that it will be unpopular with cooks. When
dry, they are easily sheted with fail. They
require at least five hours boiling, to make
them tender enough to eat, but l do not be-
lieve any amount of boiling would make them
tender enough to burst. II will be necessary
to cook some other bean with them, as they
are entirely destitute Of .fo,oers.

This somewhat celebrated parsonage deliv-
cred a lecture on Friday evening, 18th inst,
in horticultural Hall, on the Russo Turkish
question. The lecture was delivered under
the auspices of the Catholic Library Associa-
ton, and the audience was chiefly composed
of our Irish fellow citizens
The lecturer gave historical sketch. Of the
disputes, that has srisen between Catholic
France and the Porte, in relation to the "Holy
Places" and between Great Britain and Tur-
key, in relation to the establishment Of Pro-
testant Church at jerusalem, and showed that
the present allies of Turkey had both occupied
the same position towards her, and for the
esame reasons, that Russia now did.
= The dispute between Turkey and Russia
had grown out Of the claim of Russia to be
considered the protector Of the .sGreek Schis-
matte Church" Turkeyin Europe contained
population of 100000 Musselmars, and
100000 Christians, while Turkey in Asia
contained about 100000 Of the former, and
shout 100000 of the latter. The Christians
formed about half the population of the Turk
ish Empire, and were chiefly Of the Greek
persuasion. These Christians had been OPP
pressed eFil treated, and tyrannized over as
sisyes, since the establishment Of the Turkish
Empire, until 1886, whom, by the influence
OF Russia aud the revolt Of Mehcmet All. the
Grand Turk, was constrained to relax some

LONG LEAsE.-One day last week, gen.
tleman who can lay claim to being one of the
oldest inhabitants of our city, called upon us,
and during the conversation We had with
him, we gained some very important intelli-
gence--that is, it will be important to some
who are interested. He says that in 1920. a
man named -, blacksmith, who worked
at his trade in little shop he owned in the
neighborhood of the water works, became tin
ed of his business, and concluded to leave for
rarts unknown. Such being his determine
ton, he settled up his business, gave lease
of his real estate, consisting of about four
acres Of ground, located as above, and then
left the diggins on one of the broad horns that
then run upon the Ohio. In drawing up his
lease, which was for thirty five years, he gave
the lessee to understand that he had no kin.
and that if he did not return, the property
would revert to him.
Since that time the march of improvement
has been onward, and now the property that
could, at the time the lease was made, have
been purchased Tor song, almost, has in
creased in value so much that we suppose it
could not be bought for a couple of hundred
Thousand dollars. The owner has not been
heard from since he left to seek his fortunes
elsewhere, until within the last month. when
a letter was received from him, dated Hayan-
ma. where he has been doing business in the
mercantile line during the past thirty wears.
he having spent the residue of the thirty -four
of his absence in New Orleans, stating that he
should be here some time in the course Of the
ensuing summer to take possession of his
property. We understand that the lessee
thinking the owner dead, by not having heard
from him, has actually sold number Of the
lots into which it was subsequently divided, a
good many years ago, which, having increas-
ed in value, will make it hard case for the
occupants to give them up.--c Cincinnati Cam

A serious riot occurred at New Haven on
Friday night Growing out Of difficulty that
had arisen on thr previous evening" between
some of the College students and party of
citizens.
The fight commenced when the students
came out of Romans Athenum and pistols
were discharged and dirks used freely. An
Irishman named Patrick O'Neil, aged 81, was
killed, and another man was shot through the
calf of the leg.
Mr.. R. H. Scofeld was quietly passing up
Chapel st., received ball in his left arm.
About seven pistol balls were fred into tina
crowd by the students. The bells were after
ward rung and two cannon brought upon the
green, loaded, and pointed at the College build
ings The riot was finally quelled by the city
authorities and College faculty.

Mrs. Co.'s LEcruRE.-It will be seen by
an advertisement in another column, that
Mrs. Coe of Cleveland, will lecture at Brinley
Hall, this evening. The following extract
from Newark On. ~ newspaper, describes
the lecture.
"lIrs. Goes Lectwc.-The lecture of Mrs.
Emma R. Coe, at Washington Hall, last eve
ming, on Glove, Courtship, and Marriage"
was attended by large and intelligent sudi-
ence, and received with marked favor. The
propositions of the lecturer were clear and dis
tinct, and maintained by such mass of solid
reasoning as to effectually preclude their over
throw. 1t is an attractive feature of Mrs. Goes
lectures that she refrains from matchmaking
and abusing those who oppose the woman's
movement, seeking rather to win them to her
side by gentle words and candid arguments
We doubt if there is another female lecturer
now in the country, who is calculated to rem
der such effectual assistance to the cause of
Womans Rights as Mrs. Coe.

Groat Britain and France, jealous of the power
of Russia, although sympathiaing with her
policy In relation to the Christians in Turkey,
had como into the quarrel. as allies Of Tur-
key. Their object was, to prevent Russia
from controlling Turkey. If tho Gear could
obtaincontrol of the 80, 100000 of men, COM
posing Turkey, he could control the whole
commerce of the Mediterranean, and, single
handed, direct the policy of Europe-besides,
she would be more than match for Great
Britain in the East.
The lecturer said he had no particular SYM
pathy with either Turkey or Russia, although
he believed that Russia had justice and hui
manity on her side. He. in relation to this
quarrel, was like the woman who saw her
husband in the grasp of bear, and cried out,
$50 it man, go it bear! don't care who
whips" He hoped Russia and Turkey would
realize the old fable of the Kilkenny cuts, and
devour each other; nevertheless, he considered
that the Gar had the whole moral power of
the question on his side.
Mr.. Brownson made some disparaging al
lusions to the European democracy-to Kos
suth, Thomas F. Meagher, and others-which
were not at all relished by his auditors. The
Irishmen of Worcester seem to have hearty
sympathy for the European democratic revolu-
ton, whatever may be said of others.
1t seemed to us, that, Invested of Mr..
Brownson's peculiar theological egotisms, the
lecture was a candid and able presentation of
of the case between Turkey and Russia, SO
far as it went. Mr.. Brownson, however, did
not make any reference to the question, as one
of international law--as an issue between two
independent sovereignties; and, in this, we
think he failed to state the case fully and
fairly. Turkey has right, according to the
doctrines of international law, to regulate her
| own internal affairs, without any interference
from any other State. Russia undertakes to
violate this right, aud consequently is acting
without any semblance of authority, although
she may, apparently, have humane objectin
view.
1t would be humane of Russia if she should
come and attempt to coerce our Southern
States to emancipate their slaves, but the Car
would find that the United States would not
admit his right to interfere in the NATTER
Russia may exert her moral influence, if she
has any, to secure some amelioration in the
condition of the Greek Christians in Turkey,
but she has no right to use the gun and sabre
for such purpose.

LOCAL ITEMS.


sEvrnE GALr.-0 On Friday nigh, after day
Of unusual Inildness for the season, the wind
suddenly shifedto the North west, and blew
aperfect gale, which lasted through the whole
Of Saturday, and could hardly DO said to have
subsidized up to Sunday afternoon. The peri
cd Of its greatest violence, however, was be-
tween ten and twelve o'clock on Saturday
morning, between which hours four large
chirnmneys upon the new four story building
of the Worcester Academy were SUCCESSFULLY
blown down. The chimneys were very high
and unusually large, even for such building,
but they were all broken off close to the roof,
and the fragments scattered far and wide
The "Look out for the Engine" sign, at the
railroad crossing, near Washington Square al
so received more than it could stand up I'M
der, and came to the ground with crash. A
new barn, belonging to Rev. Phinsas Crandall
near the deep-cut, was entirely demolished by
the force of the wind. A great many dwell
ling houses and barns rocked upon their
foundations, very much to the terror of their
inmates who were nervous, but the above
are the most serious disasters that we have
heard of in the city.
AT North Oxford, about fourth part of the
roof of the Phoenix Mill, was blown off, and
carried into the river. The operatives were
at work in the mill at the time, but fortunate
ly no one was hurt, though all were more or
less frightened. The mill was built of stone,
and is owned by Messrs. Clark s Sanford, of
this city.
AT Springfield, about quarter of the large
passenger depot was unroofed by the violence
of the wind.
At Ashland, the large three story frame
building, 60 by 40 feet, now IN process of
erection, for Messrs. Leland s. Co., for boot
and shoe manufacturing establishment, was
completely Frustrated.
