Law Of Newspaper Libel

Judge Storer, Of Cincinnati, re-
Gently heard arguments for new tri-
al in suit for libel, in which a YER
dict had been returned for an edlto-
rial defendant, aud refused to set a.
side that verdict, on the ground that
every mans reputation for solvency
was a matter of public discussion con-
nected with the commercial business
of the country, and ifa publication,
such as that charged to have been
made in the defendants newspaper,
was made from good motives, and
without malice, and the party made
all the reparation in his power alter
wards, the jury might well refuse to
give damages, or give merely noml-
nal damages. He argued, too, that
newspapers in these days have be-
come the chronicles Of all pubic
events, and whatever is proper tor
business men to know, the editor be-
ing guarded in bis manner OF stat.
ing facts, and publishing nothing but
what he supposed at the time he had
good authority to state, be would
have the right to publish in bis news
paper; but if he published anything
of this kind wantonly, unnecessarily
and with an intention to injure, be
would of course be liable; if he pub
lisbed anything merely as the busI-
ness history of the day, and what
was supposed to be the common un-
derstanding or general report in the
community, the implication of NAL
ice would be rebutted from the CIR
cumstances in the case.

An Adnassion.-Dnring a debate
in the House on the 20th ult, Mr..
Cox of Kentucky, Know-Nothing,
said: aHis position on the question
ofSlavery and that of the Democratic
party were identical. He believed
that that party had taken q national
position, and the only one which was
safe and practicable for tie harmony,
peace and welfare of the country.
What higher tribute could be given
than is contained in this brief extract
ffom Mr.. Cox's remarksg Why, then,
is he not found acting with the Dem
ocratic party against the Black Re-
publicans? Why cling to the ghost
Of Know-Nothing nationality, and di-
vide and weaken the South? Does
the desire to establish a religious test,
to prescribe citizens of foreign birth,
and to amend the naturalization laws,
reign paramount over the rights
and interests Of the South?

SAVINGS BANKS.

"These institutions have long since
become prominent in our country,
and have been the instrumentality OF
great good in working reform IN
the habits and condition of large
Class to be found in every city
They have suggested to the minds Of
those who depend entirely upon their
daily labor for subsistence, the neces-
sity or advantage of laying Up some-
thing Tor a rainy day Fifty years
ago such a thing was scarcely known
as Savings Bank, and no one can
deny that vast Improvements have
been made in the condition Of the Ia
boring classes since then, owing to
their establishment.
"The first one, of which We find
any mention, was commenced at Tot
tenham, in England, in 1902, by
Mr.. Wakefield. In 1914 one was
established on a large scale in Edin-
burg. They soon became quite gen.
eral throughout Great Britain, all the
depositors receiving interest on their
deposits. In Scotland the rate OF
interest was fixed, and the natural
frugality of the Scotch people accu-
mulated such amounts to the credit
of depositors that their popularity
was unbounded. In England the
rate of interest was per cent
From the time the benefits of Say
ings Banks became known, their num-
Der increased rapidly, and in 1880
they numbered $40 in the United
Kingdom, and the amount deposited
was about fifteen million pounds ster-
ling. To conceive Of the great bene-
fits these institutions work, one has
only to imagine season of scarcity
and want in Great Britain, when the
poor Of that country could draw from
the banks to relieve or prevent their
distresses the sum Of el5,000,O00
sterling, or about ST., 100000.
"Ihe first Savings Bank in the
United States was established IN
1916. The success ofthis enterprise
becoming readily known, they multi
Piled rapidly throughout the land,
until at the present time there is
scarcely any place of Importance in
the country which has not its Savings
Bank. Occasionally, as in every
other branch of business, dishonest
men get its management, and then
the poor depositors suffer with the
rich ones, for yillainous raseality is
no respector Of persons. The great
est safeguards in all Savings Banks
must rest in the honor and stability
of its managers and trustees, and
when those are reliable, there can be
DO question Of success in the under
taking.'

Wilt Go With Me!

Wilt thou, wilt thou. 60 with me
To my cottage in the glen,
Where the roses bloom for thee,
Far from the city's busy ken?
There the tall old forest grows,
With its depths Of shaded. sea,
There no scorehing sun beam flows;
Wilt thou, wilt thou, go with me?
There the stately river sweeps
Down its banks in gushing pride
There the fringed willow sweeps
O'er its murm'ring, glit'ring tide;
There the woodb bine clusters bright.
Fling theirsweets to the honey bee,
There the primrose becks the night,
With no loving eye to see. ~
There the fountain pure and free
Gushes from its mossy cove,
There in the mournful melody
Ring the notes of the plaintive dove;
As star to love and guide.
Wilt thou go my lot to bless
Wilt thou be my love, my pride,
NV radiant crown of happiness?

DO yoa eat Pork?-Physicians
have just discovered that the tape
worm only troubles those who eat
pork. The Gazette Medical asserts
that the Hebrews are never troubled
with it; the pork butchers are partic-
ularly liable to it, and that dogs fed
on pork are universally SO afflicted;
in fact, it turns out that small par
asite worm, called cysteeersas, (from
two words signiiying a small insect
and tally which much affects pork,
no sooner reaches the stomach than
from the change Of diet and position:
it is metamorphosed into the well

4 The Broken Vow.

Thou art free-go love another now,
From me thy heart, has strayed;
Thy actions have revealed it,
Oh thou art greatly changed,
Thy love for me has changed to hate,
And broken is thysv
Thought thy love conld ne'er abate,
But 'tis another's now.
But go-I free thee from thy vow,
Nor hold thee to thy love,
Nor ask that thou shouldst think Of one,
Thy heart cannot approve;
Take back the love which once was mine,
I freely give it o'er,
Be happy in another's smile,
And dream of me no more.
Yes, 90 and love another now,
pll call upon my pride.
The anguish of my bosom
From all the world to hide.
I'll mix midst scenes of pleasure,
Among the blythe and gay;
plllaugh and sing, and seem to be
AsEght of heart as they.
I'll try and hide beneaththe mask
Of gaiety Iwear,
The anguish of a broken heart,
My souls dark, deep despair.
Yes go, and love who e'er thou wilt,
May pleasure be thy lot,
The only boon crave from thee,
Is, may be forgot.
