AppEALED.--We learn that the FIVE dollar
case has been appealed to the Supreme Court.
1t is all about a stove which Curtis furnished
for the School-house in district No. 2. Not
getting his pay, he sued out writ Of repie-
win, and captured the stove bodily. On tri-
al, however, before the Justice, it was agreed
that Curtis shet14 return the stove to the
sehool-hoases AMI receive his five dollars
Such was the beginning of the suit, and a.
shat time it's settlement, would have cost the
defendants $3.50 each, besides saving them
and the plaintiffs all their time in attending
court, all their anxiety, the fees Of lawyers,
and the costs of Court. Sometimes discre-
ton is the better part Of valor. Occasional
ly ones rights can be yielded without mate
rial damage, either to pocket or reputation.
