discovered in France, bv which, it is said,

cheaply, without damaging the original, so
exactly, that the most practiced eye cannot
tell the difference. and the copies may be
multiplied indefinitely.

Mr.. GAZETTE: ,.,ssas.ase.-
The House is now in advance Of tho SEN
ate with its business, which is an unusual
occurrence. The House has had under CON-
sideration l25 different bills, many ofwhich
have been rejected. A large number Of
those bills were joint resolutions asking for
additional mail facilities, and grants ofiand
for Railroad purposes also number OF
bills for locating various State roads and
Joint resolutions in relation to establishing a
State University and Deaf and Dumb, Blind
and Insane Asylums.
There have been l2s different bills before
the Senate, many Of which have been re-
iected. This is a larger number than has
ever vet been before the Senate at any one
session.
Ful.on's bill to repeal the Usury Law has
bee n voted down in the Senate by majori
" of one vote.
A joint resolution authorizing the Gov
ernor to appoint Commissioners to select
site within two miles Of Fort Des Moines
for the State Capitol has passed the Senate
The Senate is now holding night Sos
sion discussing the Prohibtery Liquor bill
which recently passed the House. 1t has
been slightly amended, but not to its advsn
tase. It may pass the Senate with the pro
viso that the people approve it at the ballo
box. Some Of the opponents of this bill
have attempted to kill it by proposin;
| amendments that would render it inethcien
| and ridiculous.
Your bill to extend the cooperate limit
of Davenport is now before the third com
mittee to which it has been referred.
| Yours, ARUNDEL.

Novel Law Suit.

A somewhat romantic suit al law has
just been terminated in Franklin county.
Ii seems that one John Lesc her became
pierced with the orrow Of cupid, and,
wishing to heal the wound by lawful
wedlock, he made proposals TO the object
Of his affections, which, il seems, she
received favorably; but the father, Mr..
Jacob Wyant, being a prudent man, Of
much foresight, required the said John
Lescher TO enter into bonds Of $500,
conditioned that The said John Lescher
should live with bis wife and treat her
as a kind and afleclionate husband should
do; but the parties, after living together
some months, separated, and this suit
was brought TO recover the amount of
the bond. The case was first tried at
the last April term of the Franklin court.
when Judge Kimmel decided the bond
TO be invalid. The case was carried to
the supreme court, and it was decided
tina, he bond "was good and valid, and
in accordance with the law" The case.
therefore, came up again in the Franklin
cocnty courts, when the jury found q
verdict for the plaintiff of S979,76 The
result of this suit may give a valuable
suggestion 10 anxious fathers whose
daughters are sought as partners a, the
altar, and an imitation Of Mr.. Wyant's
fore,houghs would show a prudent con.
Germ for their daughters welfare.-(ar.
