TAR AND FEATHER CAsE.--NIassd
chusctis is INDUCING in another legal et
element The Swampscott tar ado
teathering case is causing more of sch
sation if possible than the liquor cases.
On the day when the news of TIL
assassination Of President Lincoln reached
Swampscott one Stone expressed himself
as glad OF it. This was too much fol
Massachusetts loyalty, and the sympa-
thlser with the assassins was tarred and
ieathered. He brought an action against
some Of the leaders and recovered $500.
Recently the grand jury found an indict-
ment against some or all OF those who had
been sued in the civil action. Before the
trial the House Of Representatives passed
an order requiring Attorney General
Reed to take the management of the case
himself. This extraordinary action of the
legislature is Justified, as they think, by
the undue zeal manifested in the holding
OF the defendants to trial at this time by
Judge Lord and District Attorney Alb
bott What will be the result Of this
legal confusion we cannot tell

CoNCERNING " IMPORTED FRENCu
BRANDY.--A case has just been decided
i'll the Circuit Court at Albany, the tes-
! timony i'll which throws some light on
what people drink. Two casks of brandy
had been seized, duly labeled as if of
French manufacture, on suspicion that
they had been smugglcd. But the lead
in member Of firm in New York, doing
very heavy business in importing choice
brandlcs and rare old wines, came forward
to protest against this seizure as a
hi9h-handed outrage and violation of
rights OF property. He swore that
the brandy, every gill of it, was
manufactured in New York City, and
brought testimony to prove the habitual
counterieiting OF that article that the
casks were made in imitation of the French
ones, and dates eight or ten years past
branded upon them that immense guam
titles OF this "French brandy" were sold :;
that it was made from Cologne spilit,
Favored 10y al Of corn.c and neutral
that tins oil OF cognac was what the wit
100 VIA NV hhON, Dut IL was imported
from Cincinnati that it cost 81. 50 per
gallon to manufacture brandy in this way.
and that there was not n drop Of French
brandy in its composition. The Judge
ordered the casks to be delivered up to
the elaimant-Elis Honor saying that the
case was the most exit Extraordinary one
which had ever come under his observa-
ton. The evidence showed an extensive
and deliberate fraud, not only upon the
public but upon the Government officers,
and it came with a bad grace from the
claimant to set up as a defense that, be-
cause he had been successful in his fraud,
he should enjoy immunity from the oper-
ations OF the law. He trusted however,
that good would result from this exposure.
He believed it would be worth TO the
country all it had cost and if there was
a State law to punish such fraudulent
operations as were developed by this case,
il should be enforced,

"TIE STAR or TIE GALAXY,"-The
National Republican has a glowing ac-
count of a '.fete" given at the National
Hotel IN Washington on the evening of
the 18th inst, by the ladies sojournng at
that House, The account concludes as
follows:
The display of elegant costumes of
silks, vetvets, laces, and all the ingenious
fabrics of the loom was very rich and
varied. Some of the ladies were crystal
line with jewelry, and Others, with more
simple apparel, displayed charms that
would tempt an anchorite from his lenten
repast.
The star of the galaxy was, however,
a Young lady from Vermont, niece of
Senator Foot, who was dressed with "A
simplicity that charmed everybody who
saw her. Her dress was pure white al
'paca, covered with transparent lace, and
she wore not an ornament either of Jewell
ry, ribbons, or anything of the kind. Her
hair WAS allowed to fall naturally without
comb or any visible confinement, and her
figure presented picture worthy of the
pencil Of the Italian masters.

Troy IL Boston Il. Il. Co. =. Burcharl
and Page, Trustees. The Rensselaer, 6.

This was a petition to the court to APP
point commissioners to settle the differ
encvs between the Troy and Boston Rail
road Company and the tru-tees Of the
Rutland and burlington Railroad, in pur-
aiance Of an act passed at the last session
Of the Legislature. The Importance of
the interests involved, the ability of the
counsel engaged, and the obstinacy with
which every point was contested, com
bined to make it one Of the most interest
ing cases ever heard in the county. T..
w, Park, T.. J. Phelps Of Burlington, and
Judge Could of Troy, Il member of the
New York Court of Appeals, appeared
for the Troy & Boston Railroad Company :;
Levi Underwood Of Burlington, for the
trustees Burchard and Page; John B.

Of Woodstock for the Rutland and Bur
lington corporation. The court decided
to appoint commissioners, and appointed

LITERARY NOTICES,

We have received the ATLANTIC
MONTHLY for March. II contains a high
ly interesting article entitled San ANA
conan Hicnic." 1t is tie first of a series.
and is written by Mis-, Agas,iz, who ac-
companlcd Prof. Agassiz on his scientific
expedition to Brazil, and is IN full SYM
pathy with his wise enthusiasm. She
gives graphic sketch of the Scenery of
tie Amazon, the luxuriant vegetation, the
brl.lialt-plumaged birds, the almost count
less species of fishes, before unknown to
Science, but now assuming rapidly their
proper scientific places and names under
the skilliul touch of Prof. Agassiz, and
describes the inhabitants and their mode
OF life. The freshness of the subject, the
grea; interest attaching to the expedition,
and the clear, picturesque style of the
writer, give TO his article unusual attrac-
tons. Charles Rcade's story, Griffith
Gaunt," possesses IL vigor and vivacity
that rank it among the very best serials
of the day. lis satire is genial, and it is
pcrvaded by healthy tone of hoppfulness
and good will The striking Passages
from liawthornes Note Books; the story
OF DIR. Johns, one OF remarkable fidelity
to nature and charming grace of style +;
and Mrs. Stoves suggestive Chimney
Corner Dlscourses, are continued. Mrs.

The Senate still discusses the Consitu-
