COMMON PLEAS.

Anderson and Wife VS.. the County Com
missioners,-A proceeding in which the right Of the
County Commissioners to open road in Delhi Town
ship was contested. The plaintiffs claimed the right
impeach the record establishing the road and also
that II was vaca ed under an agreement with the
Commissioners.
Judge Carter admitted the record as tes stimOny;
held that the Commissioners could not, by any con-
tract change the line of road, aud instructed the
Jury to find the issue Joined for the defendants vor
dict accordingly.
TRIAL OF JOHN KAHN On the part of tho defense
several witnesses (mostly medica were called to es
tablish case of insanity.
Drs. Oomegys Sherwood, M. B. Wright, and Mus

Hypothetical cases were put to the witnesses, and
the general effect of the testimony was that man
might be so overcome with emotional insanity rs to
feel an Irresistible impulse to do thing which he
knew to be wrong-that he might be driven to in
sanity by seeing his daughter entering upon life OF
prostitution-that domestic relations were fruitful

trial did not prove technical of insanity, but

The TURNER'S FAIR.-The fair for the bene.
tit OF the Turner's new hall, on Walnut. street,
between Allison and Liberty, still continues
with seemingly undated interest, and Is at
tended nightly by large number of persons
OF both sexes, who enjoy it, apparently, as
much az If it were altogether new. The males
do not long resist the Inducements which are
offered by their sweet-eyed friends to take
chances in the goods they seek to dispose of
in this manDer, and tho love-notes that pass
through the lily-like hands of the delicate
girl that has charge Of the Postoffice are
calculated to cause more heart-throbs than
the approving smiles Of the fair writer's will
ever be able TO compensate.
In company with a number of our brother
journalists we visited the hall for the first time
last evening. It is large and oommodious,
and admirably adapted to all its uses. The
gymnasium is arranged in excellent style; the
upper hall is well proportioned, and the stage
and decorations are gotten up in an elegant
manner. In all its appointments the new hall
seems to be all that could be desired, and un-
der the control Of Mr.. jacob and the Presi-
dent Of the Association will doubtless be ron
dered as comfortable and attractive as the
most fastidious could desire.
Tho fair will continue until after the holi-
days, and it is expected that sufficient sum
will be realized from the sales of the articles
on exhibition, to enable this excellent society
to finish their building in the manner they
propose.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT TO THE DRIVER OF A
MILK WAGoN-About half past three O'Clock
yesterday afternoon, Coroner Carey was called
upon to hold an inquest upon the body Of
man named Henry Heinman, who had been
thrown from milk wagon at the corner of
John and Catherine streets, and was supposed
to be killed. The Coroner found the wounded
man alive, although insensible, aud by his
exertions he was enabled to be taken to his
home below Millcreek. His injuries consist
Of severe cut upon the face and several
bruises upon the head, one of which is frao-

fatally,

MANS THIGH BRoKEN.-A horse attached
to milk wagon ran away yesterday afternoon,
on Elm street, and threw the driver out upon
the bowldered pavement, disloCating his thigh
and otherwise ipjuring him quite seriously.
He was carried to the Commercial Hospital,
where his wounds were attended to and he
rendered comfortable as the circumstances
would admit. He stated that his name was
Louis Shaeffer, and that he had been employed,
but q short time since, by man upon the
Reading Road. The dislooation of his thigh
will oonfne him to his bed for considerable
length of time, and from his appearance and
statement there are those dependant upon him
who can not well afford to lose the support he
heretofore has given them.

was very effective, and drew tears from many

Y. M. NJ. L. Lectures--Rev. III. w. Bel
lows ON the "Criteria of Social Pro.
1rrnuo -

Y. M. NJ. L. Lectures--Rev. II. w. Bel
lows on the "Criteria of Social Pro-
gress." ,-t
Rev. H. w. Bellows's third and last lecture
on the "Science Of Society,"" was delivered
last evening at Smith 4 Nixon's Hall, on tho
"Criteria Of Social Progress" to rather
small audience, compared with those of the
two previous evenings. lI-'
The lecturer set out by defining criminslity
as the violation of right and the propriation
OF others property, and by stating that so
many fallacies existed respecting criminality
that few knew what it was.
1t was common to measure social progress
by the increase or decrease Of crime, which
was all wrong, for that was looking at the
matter from one point Of view only. If crime
increased, goodness increased also, and this,
the truest and best evidence Of social pro.
gress, could not easily be detected.
Men did not become better, perhaps, all
other things being equal, by large and deep
cultivation but the masses did BY a certain
degree OF wholesome knowledge on subjects
within their reach Popular education was
what was needed, not enough to awake and
arouse all the faculties, for there was born
augmented disposition to err and to defraud.
little learning was not a dangerous thing,
and the people were gradually tending in the
right direction. The world was, every year,
understanding social progress and how TO
promote It; and the day was approaching whom
all would be olear--when false figures and
made.up statistics could no longer be COM
mitted instead Of tho highest faculties Of the
soul.
This crude outline may give some idea of
the Doctors discourse, which was less interest
ing than its predecessors, but which had eyi.
IDENTIFY been closely reflected upon and care
fully worded. - u 49,.
