position which places it, as we'll as its proprie-

al malice In the schools of France. the highest
prizes are often awarded to practitioners in this
department of Medical science, and they occupy
with Others, an equally lofty position in the pro
fession. Ricord is an ilustrious example shin
ing light among the philosophical stars of his age
in Europe, and DR.. Czapkay has fully equaled
him in this country, as proof of which, the Phil

with Diploma, and the honorary all eundem
degree. Selecting this as his field Of operation,
although qualified graduate of the Univers-
ty of Pesth, and late Chief Surgeon of the Hun
garian Revolutionary army, for more extended
abors, Dr. L. j. Czapkay has bent his earnest
attention to the cure of chronic and private
diseases in which he has become so great an ex-
pert that he is now regarded as the LEADER in
this branch of his profession throughout the
United States, and his portrait and biography are
published matter of interest to their readers

JUDGE BREEsE on BREACH OF PROMISE CAsEs-In
late case concerning breach of promise, decided
by the Supreme Court, and reported in the twenty
first volume of Illinois Reports, Judge Breese, in a
separate opinion, saws:
My view is, that once an action ec contractu, it
should be so regarded throughout all its stages;
and when 1T Is proved that contract to marry has
been legally made by parties capable of contract
ing, that there are mutual promises, and no impu-
tation upon character, and readiness to marry or
offer to do so, shown, and cause appearing to
justify refusal to perform the contract, materials
for the formation of proper verdict should be
found in this consideration. What is the value of
the contract? This of course, depends in great
degree on the circumstances of the parties
The wealth of the defendant would contribute es-
sentially, in these mercenary times, to swell the
value of the contract, and enhance the damages
for its breach for, general fact, it may be safe
ly asserted that contract to marry a rich man,
all else being equal, is of more value, the world
goes, than contract to marry poor man. Put
ting such case the plaintiff herself being free from
fault, and causelessy deserted, fairly before an
honest jury, no danger need be apprehended of the
result. We have a striking instance of this in a
late case in adjacent State where the fair plain
tif-a respectable spinstcr-received verdict of
100000, the defendant having been proved to be
worth 81 100000. This, doubtless, was a suit on
speculation, as such cases generally are, and money
was the object. | don't believe, myself, that the
feelings of the plaintiff were very much Iacerated
by the desertiOn of her lover, with the frosts of
sixty winters on his head, or that they had anything
to do with the suit that the jury considered that
in making up their verdict. They looked at it as a
valuable contract which she had lost, and awarded
accordinply
