The Military.

The next is Review week, when we shall
have tho honored Chief of the State and his
suite in our midst; and, VIC do not know that
we could give them more appropriate intro
duction, than by oppcnding the following ar
ticle from the EdgcGeld Adscrtiscr;
"Our military reviews nrc now in progress.
His Excellency Governor Allston and suite,
Adiutant General Dunovant, and Major Gen
eral Smith and suitc arc in attendance Our
town has had an usual interest attached to
it for the few past lays by the presence of
these gentlomen. 1t is needless to say that
they arc winning golden opinions in passing
How could it he otherwise, when ofFability
high tone, intelligence, and social warmth so
manifestiy characterize them all.
"Goy. Allston we regret to say, has been
somewhat indisposed but was improving
when he left us yesterday morning. Besides
she military duties of his tour, his Excellency
is assiduous in his inquiries as to mattcrs of
q civil nature and especially in reference to
the working of our present Free School sys-
tenn, which subject he evidently has much at
heart We arc more convinced than ever that
our Legislature, in selecting him the Chief
Magistrocy of the State made an admirable
choice. Lot MS say, that old Edgeicld wishes
him pleasant summer and a successful term.
"Our feelings nro not lees warm towards
the several members of his present military
cortogc"

LOST RAILROAD TIoKETs.--The Court
of Cuyahoga county, Ohio, has recently de.
cided that passenger who loses his ticket
cannot require Railroad Company to pass
him over their road without purchasing an
other. The ground for the decision is that
the ticket being negotiable by delivery, any
one picking up the lost ticket could ride
upon it, and hence the Company would bc
subjected to frequent iinpositions. Inthis
case it was held, too, that the Company
have q right to make all reasonable rules
and regulations for the benefit of the pub
lie and their own protection, and that the
Ticket Agent, having sold a ticket to tho
plaintiff, the latter was obliged, if ,ho rode.
to give it to the conductor; IL not, shey
had the right to eject him from the cars.
Further it was held that passengers are not
lcssces of the eare, on the parchase and de.
livery of tickets; but even then may bo
elected for fernon-compliance with che reguIa-
tlons, The Company, in such q case, how
ever may be liable for breach of duty as
common carriers, and for damage resulting
from dctention or otherwise.
