UNITED STATES CIRCUIT Court, BALTI-
MoRE-Betore Hon. Judge GileS.-July 10
II. III. Day and others as. Shllman HeimichS-
This case, which occupied nine days in the
argument was determined in favor of COM
plainants. The great question involved seems
to have been the extent of the title which III.
II. Day acquired under certain agreements
with Charles Goodyear in 1916, and an agree
ment dated in May, 1858. On the one side it
was contended that the grant of 1916 conveyed
to Day the right to use not merely patent of
Goodyear's for species of shirred goods da-
ted March Q, 1874, with the addition of Good
years patent for vulcanized, rubber in such
connection, but the addition also to use vul-
canized rubber in the manufacture of every de-
scription of shirred goods, whether the same
were produced by sewing, weaving, or cement
ing the cementing process being that describ-
ed in the patent fMarch 8, l844) The defend
ants, on the other hand, insisted that tho right
OF Day to use vulcanized rubber was confined
strictly TO the manufacture, not Of shirred
goods generally, but of the shirred goods par
ucularly specified in the patent of March 8,
io44. Simple as this question seems, the So
luton of it was complicated with so much tes-
tlmony, documentary and other, that the de-
velopment and discussion of it occupied the
time above mentioned. The decision Of Judge
Giles was, that the agreement of 1916 gave to
Day the right to use the vulcanized rubber in
the manufacture Of shirred goods generally,
whether the stirring was the result Of sewing,
weaving, or cemcnting together the ribbon in
state OF tension with the inelastic material

A MILD SICKLEs CASE AT TAUNToN-The
ordinary quiet of the good city of Taunton was
disturbed yesterday by case of scandal, an
account of which is given by the Gazette, as
follows:
From the most reliable accounts we are able
to obtain, it appears that some months since a
very worthy and respectable young man went,
in the course Of his business, from this place
to reside in Boston, leaving his wife, who is
personally very attractive woman, engaged
in one of the dry goods stores on Main street.
Whether the visits, Of her husband were too
much like those attributed to the angels, or
whether absence verified the old saying, "out of
sight out of mind, we do not pretend to decide
but report has it that from some unexplained
cause there has sprung up and been carried on
for several weeks, or perhaps months, between
the lady and young man employed as cutter
at fashionable clothing house, an intimacy of
the most dangerous and improper kind. Ru-
mors of the most painful character are said
sometimes since to have reached the ears of
the injured man, but having either too much
good sense or too much good nature, the warn
ings have been disregarded, until Sunday
night, when upon appearing at his wife's resi-
dence on Cohonnet street, at very late hour
i'll the evening, and discovering her in a close
contab with male companion in locked
room, his ire became aroused. Stationing one
trusty friend at each door to prevent the posi-
bility Of an escape, he entered the apartment,
and upon the the luckless individual who dis
turbed his peace, with his fists alone, punish
ment severe did then and there infict.
1t is alwaya quite difficult to guage the
measure of fogging, especially after the
passage of a certain point; but upon this oc-
cason it is highly probable there was enough
of that article administered to prevent a rem
dtion of the exciting cause, and leave hand
some margin to carry to a new account. The
chief injuries sustained by the victim are said
to be broken finger, ditto nose, a "black eye
or two" sundry extensive abrasions of the Gu
ticle about the cheeks and ears, the loss of a
few locks of hair, and the unpleasant sensa-
tons usually contingent upon thumps, kicks
and punches in the epigastrium, and in that
part which Irving has described as the most
honorable" portion of the human frame
Thus for the present the matter rests; the
one party happy in having abundantly chas-
tised his adversary, the other engaged in
drawing from balm of Gilead and flannel, that
solace which the nature of his case just now
so painfully demands.

The PARTIES AT THE SoUTH.-Our readers
will find on the outside of this paper an arti-
Gle which we copy from the Charleston Mer.
curry, with something from the Richmond
Wing and a correspondent of the New York
Tribune. What is there printed seems worth
attention because it shows what is not as well
understood in this part of the country as it
should be, 10 wit:-the relative position of
parties in the Southern States. In most of
those States, what is called the "Opposition'
has adopted the extreme views of the Mercury
and Jefferson Davis i'll regard to slave code
for the territories, and seems to have in
view a formal union with this section of
the Democratic party. What is said of
the Opposition" in Virginia and Kentucky, is
true of that party in North Carolina In Ten
nessee, we believe, both parties avoid the con-
troversy between squatter sovereignty and
congressional slave code for the territories, and
therefore have said nothing to deyelope their
present position in regard to these matters.
Those who have talked in vague, uneasy
way of coalition between Republicans and
the Opposition" in Virginia and Kentucky,
will hardly infer from what we print on the first
page, that such coalition is possible. In fact,
it seems no more possible or desirable than
coalition between the Republicans and the
Democratic extremists of Mississippi and
South Carolina.

| MINNEsoTA.-The Republican State Con-
vention Of Minnesota, which met last week,
nominated as follows For Governor-Alex-
ander Ramsey. Lieut.. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Donnelly. Secretary of State-J. II. Baker
Treasurer-Charles Schoeffer. Members of
Congress-Cyrus Aldrich and William Win
dow.
The st. Paul Minnesotan says of the Re-
publican State Convention =
every organized country in the whole
State is fully represented and even the coun-
ties the tarthest distant, as well as those more
central, and more fully settled and developed,
are represented, in many instances, by lobby
as full as the regular delegation. And they
had come, not to ask for nominations, either
for themselves or friends, but to see and know
for themselves, that great principles shall be
sustained-that the State shall be saved-and
to add, each his mite, in counsel and hearty
sympathy and approval if so there is need
and opportunity, to aid in the good work 1t
is the best evidence that could be given of the
deep, earnest feeling existing all over the
State, among all classes; and it has surround
ed us and our city with an atmosphere, giving
us an inspiration to which we have been long
time stranger.
II 10 ny ldf Cile laIBest pOllllcal cOnVenuOn
that ever met in our city-territorial or State
and when we looked over the sea of faces
steadfastly turned to the officers rostrum, and
saw the marked intelligence, eminent cutiva-
ton, and reused earnestness which could have
brooked no triflifg with the object for which
they came, we feel proud of our State, proud
of our party, and proud to work with such CO.
adjutors. Ir gives us joy that our lot is cast
with such party and people.
1t was expected that the platform would be
presented, discussed, and adopted, before any
thought would be entertained of any nomina-
ton. But so deep and so unanimous was the
desire to re-nominate Gov Ramsey and to
show to the world anew their confidence in
their man, their principles, their party, and
their past action, that they could consent to
no delay, and so voted down everything inter-
vening, and Nominated him with entirely unan-
imous and vociferous reclamation. And when
the Governor came forward to accept the
nomination, the cheering reception he met
with was Indicative Of the feeling through
out the State His pointed and appropriate
remarks are given in the report"

BEHIND THE SCENEs.-A private letter
from Boston reports little rumpus in the re-
cent meeting of the Alumni of Harvard Col
lege, which, by some curious accident, has not
been reported in any of the Boston journals.
1t appears that body of young fellows among
the Alumni were present at the meeting, and
first caused the proposal to nominate officers
by committee to be voted down. Then, on the
ballot for President, strange to say, Mr..
Charles Francis Adams had rs votes to 43 for
Mr.. R. c. Winthrop. Next came the choice ola
Vice President, and, what was most surprising
of all, Mr.. Wendell Phillips was found to have
II votes, According to our informant, when
Prof FELTON, came to announce the result, he
gave the number of votes cast for Mr. p, but
refused to mention his name, though there
were loud calls for it-but this we can hardly
believe. Prof. Bowen made speech denounc-
ing the conduct of the opponents Of Mr.. Win
throp as extraordinary and unanticipated, and
Prof FELTON, called it audacions. 1t seems that
Massachusetts is so perverted by ant-slavery
feeling, and by dislike of Mr.. Winthrop, that
the opposition to him breaks out even in the
meeting of the Alumni of Harvard College

tuition
A correspondent of the New York Post says
that at the examination just finished, the
Sophomore class lost five men, and had thirty
more put under Conditions" which they
must make up before they return to college.
This is one of the consequences of raising the
standard of scholarship.

The RECENT BOILER ExpLosIoN.-A gen.
tleman who has taken much interest in the in.
vestigation of the causes of steam boiler ex-
plosions, and who is one Of the most compe-
tent machinsts in the city, visited Worcester
yesterday to examine the wreck of the late ex-
posion. He informs us that the effects of the
explosion were by no means exaggerated in
the published accounts. He has examined
over one hundred boilers where explosions
have occurred, and in no instance has he seen
one the wreck Of which was so complete He
was satisfied that the cause of the explosion
was deficiency of water in the boiler This
is the common cause Of explosions. Our in
formant says that in but two instances out of
over a hundred which he has examined, could
any other reason be given for the explosion,
and in those cases the boilers were imperfect
in their construction.-boston Journal, July rs.

BY EUGENE BATCHELDER.
Tune-"FdiT HdTrdrd."
Pull BOYS pull for bright ewes are beaming you
As you dash through the calm cleaning tide;
PULL boys pull for the fame of gallant crew,
And for Harvard of whom you re the pride;
Oh! bend to your oars with will you speed;
Oh again boys, give way with a will :.
For never before had "0ld Harvard such need
That her should be true to her still!
Oh! believe me- your fame is as dear to each heart
of the hardest old student of yore,
As If he himself in the race took part
And like Abbott could pull 1.-The stern oar!"
Can her who have loved her Fair Harvard forget
Forget all her glory and fame?
No; they trust the bright sun of Tuesday shall set,
new triumph shalt beam round her name.
Cambridge, Monday, July 25.-BostoR Post
