The LAW OF THE RAIL.-The New

some important decisions in railroad cases,
which we will state in brief:
Dead-heads, it seems, can sue for inju-
ries resulting from accidents. The court
holds that in all cases where railroad
company voluntarily undertakes TO convey
Il passenger upon their road, whether with
or without compensation, il such passenger
is injured by the culpable negligence or
want Of skill ofthe agents Of the company
the court holds the latter is liable Notion

The bodily pain and suflerings of the vic.
tim OF railroad accident, as well as his
medical expenses and direct Pecuniary loss
are proper subjects for compensation. Ran

feet over ground;, nail strips Of boards on them

Is put in the trays, cover all over with musquto
bar stuff or other light cause stuff, to keep
the flies from spelling the fruit. (the most impor

should all be of size, so they can be piled up
one on top of the other under sheds at night or
during rain. Trays Of this kind can always be
used TO advantage in dry houses or kilns as well
as for sun drying and will prove great auxiliary
to the Fearing and Slicing machine, making cheap,

E5-The following from the "Terre Haute
Union" is, so far AS we know, as true as
gospel:
Ifyou find a Southern paper contending
for revival of the slave trade or dissolu.
ton of the Union, it is Democratic. If
you find Northern paper contending for
the abolition OF slavery or a dissolution Of
the Union, it is Republican. Werevcr you
find an American paper, whether North or
South, you will find it repudiatng both
these ideas, and standing by the Union at
evry hazard. These are facts for serious
reflection.
