LAW REPORT.
SUPERIOR counr-JuDor HAYNES.

Solomon p. For VS.. Ddniel b. Ol,ofn.--
An action brought TO recover $2O3 for the
alleged conversion of nineteen and One-hali
tons OF hay, by the defendant. Plaintiff
averred that In pursuance of q contract with
one Anthony olwin, ifatherof defendant.
he made the amount Of hay mentioned
above. and for his services and labor In cut
ting, curing and hauling the same he was
TO receive one-half thereof for his share.
Plaintiff further averred that about the time
the hay was made. defendant purchased the
farm of said Anthony Olwin, upon which
plaintiff had lease, and In order to obtain
possession of the farm made certain con-
tracts with plaintiff, among which was an
agreement to take good care of the hay and
preserve the same until such time as it
would become convenient to remove IL from
those premises. in consideration of which
plaintiff vacated lthesame anl give. defen-
Idant the possesslon, BY NyhiclI defendant
also came into possession of the hay belong
ing to plaintiff. which hay he Afterwards
converted to his own use. and refused to
account for the value thereof to plaintiff,
Defendants admitted the facts as to maxi
ing the hay, but denied that there was so
great quantity, rs alleged by plaintiff.
He further alleged that plaintiff had bor-
rowed about three tons of hay of said AM
thohy Ols9in, and had ngreesl to replace the
same with the hay mentioned, to which de-
fendant became entitled by reason of his
contract and purchase of tue farm upon
which the hay was grown, and that the hay
so claimed was noti the property of the
plaintiff. Or that If any part thereof be-
Onged to plaintiff 1t had not been so di-
vided as to entitle the plaintiff to recover.
The Court, in charging the jury. held
that Ii they found that the hay had not
been divided, but that the parties TO the ae-
tion Iemain ed as tenants in common, of the
crop, and that if it remained 10 the possess
sion of one, the other could not bring an
action against him upon refusal to deliver
any part of the hay upon demand being
made. But If tile jury found there had
been division, and that the parties had
agreed to it, as made, then If demand had
been made, and the defendant without
reasonable excuse refused to allow plaintiff
to remove his share, he was liable in
damages for the conversion.
This cause was tried at n former term of
the Court, upon which the jury found n
verdicG for plaintiff for $l93, which verdict
was set aside upon the ground of excessive
damages.
The jury in this case, after short de-
liberation, returned verdict for 5000
Motion for new trial by the. defendant.

TnR FAR.-The Fair Of the Sisters OF
Charity. now in progress at Clegg's Hall,
was largely attended last evening. The
people seem to appreciate In the right
spirit the laudable object which the mana
gers of this enterprise have in view. 1t is
certainly worthy of the most generous
patronage, and the benevolent ladies who
are laboring to provide for the comfort and
welfare Of needy and destitute children,
should be encouraged by the liberality OF
our people. There will be new attractions
this evening, and we trust the hall will be
filled by those who are ever ready to aid In
a good work.

The SEAsoN.-The unusually cold and
dry weather which now prevails here, is
interfering very seriously with the growing
of summer crops. The corn, oats, fax, &c,
which all came up well, do not make any
perceptible headway, and If we do not have
rain and warm weather soon, it is feared
that these crops will get a back-set from
which they will not recover. The same
state of things prevails in all sections OF
the country, as we learn from our ex-
changes. In the East they are experience
ing an unusual drought The Boston
7fGUeler says that 'the present drought in
New England is almost unprecedented at
this season, and in many places near Bos-
ton there has been considerable loss by the
burning over of woodlands. In the upland
pastures the grassfis feeling the effects Of
the dry weather. The streams are low"

SUoGEsTIvE.-The fire in New York
night before last. resulting in the destruc-
tion of the Academy of Music and other
valuable buildings, was a calamity. The
losses reported are about sl,0000OO, With
an insurance of only s1s5,OOO. Maretzek
and Grau lost, in wardrobe, scenery, &C.,
about $4,000, upon which there was no
Insurance.
This, observes the Enquirer, following so
soon after the loss of Pixies Opera House,
suggests the idea that there are incendlaries
who are leagued to destroy all the great
dramatic temples in the country. There
may be something in that. There was once
an organization of 'church- -
they may have lattcrly turned their atten-
tion to Theaters.

FACTS US. THEORIES.

"Give me n place to rest my lever
on" saws Archimedes, "and | will
move the world "Give me pure and
unadulterated drugs" says Medicus,
of the olden time, "and L will cure
disease"
In one sense, both of these learned
pundits were the veriest charlatens
They knew there was no place to rest
their lever on, either to move the
world or cure disease. Mechanism
was in n backward state, and the med
ical profession was but another name
for sorcery, and all the odjuncts of
magic filters and charms of the "evil
eye &c
But these latter days have borne
unto us something more than even
superstition and its crew ever dreamt
of in their maddest philosophy. In
these days of practical science, what
was theory of yesterday is fact to-day,
and all the old time notions become as
bubbles in the sun, and burst and
break with every breath we draw.
Let Alchimedes shoulder his lever
and we will find resting place for it
to move the world Let mine ancient
Medicus pant and toll no more for the
drugs he so sorely needs, for we have
them at our hand, ever ready to serve
them at his beck
Refined in the laboratory of DR..
Maggicl, the finest materials known in
the medical profession are obtainable
by any one. His Bilious, Dispeptic,

and his Salye operates with magical
effect upon burns, scalds, and all sores
and ulcers Of the skin.
In fact, we think MAGcIEL's Pills and
Salvo are the wonder OF this century,
and we are happy in the thought that
many others of our brethren Of the
craft agree with us We would
earnestly counsel that all families pro-
vide themselves with DR. Maggiel S
