Court PROCEEDINGS term of Court
was held last week, for the trial of civil caus-
es. L following cases were disposed of:
Thomas Graham rs. 4. B. Shaeo.-This
was an action involving the true location Of
two surveys in Goshen township, near the
river, containing respectively 1887 and $50
acres. 1t was a long, tedious case, resulting
in verdict for the plaintiff, with $50 DANA
ges, for timber taken off by the Defendant
Swoope for Plaintiff; Wallace for Defendant
Robert Porter as. Wm. IL HHer-An
action of cjectment for $50 acres of land on
Clearfeld Greek The plaintiff had sold TO
the defendant $50 acres of land out eta sur
vey in name of Mary Reed, alleging that
it was located so as-to be bounded by the
Little Clearfeld Creek Defendant claim
ed that he was in possession of $50 acres,
outside of the lines of the Mary Reed
survey, which he claimed under an improve
ment right, and that plaintiff location of
the MARY Reed would compel him to-
take as his pure chase the land he already
owned An unusual degree of interest was
felt in this case Verdict for the Defendant.
Wallace for Plaintiff; Swoope and McCul-.
Tough for Defendant.
Isaac and AHt:son Hanpt Us. Jacob Mock
-Trover and conversion, for crop OF grain,
hay, &C., raised on farm belonging TO the

tiffs; Wallace for defendant.
Beng Spaclman ct al, Us. Robert Latz.
-Repleyin for 2, 500 feet of timber, cut
ON landciaimed by plaintiffs. The question
involved, was the true division line between
two surveys in the name of Peter Martin
and ''NNilliam Martin The plaintiffs
claimed to hold to consentable, or com
promise line, the existence of which the
defendant denied, and claimed to hold to
the true division line between the tracts.
The Court reserved the point as to whether
or not the action could be maintained; but
the jury found for the defendant, generally.
McEnally for pit ifs Swoope for def't.
On Saturday night, the motion for new

cision was reserved.

THE USE OF TEA--Tea Is much used,
especially at meals, on account Of its being
very palatable and pleasant beverage,
and an eXhilarating and cheering stimulent.
Yet. If we take the testimony of a writer
on the subject, this is mere temporary re-
freshment- producing a pleasing and. joy
Gus sensation for the time being, but as soon
as its Indictment has subsied leaves the
system in more enfeebled condition than
previous to partaking thereof The writer
says The frequent drinking of quantity
of strong tea, as is the general practice, re-
lakes and weakens the tone of the stomach,
whence proceeds nausea and indigestion,
with weakness of the nerves, and fiabbi-
ness of the flesh, and very often pale, wan
complexion Milk, when mixed with it in
some quantity, lessons its bad qualities by
rendering it softer and nutritious and with
moderate quantity of sugar, it may then
be proper breakfast, as dilutant, to hose
who are strong, and live freely, in order to
cleanse the ahmentary passages, and wash
off the salts from the kidneys and bladder.
But persons of weak nerves ought to abstain
from it as carefully as from drains and cor
dial drops as it causes the same kind of IL
ritation on the tender, delicate fbres of the
stomach, which ends in lowness, trembling
and vapors. 1t should never be drank hot
by anybody Green tea is less wholesome
than black or bohea.
