A WARNING TO RAILROAD CoMPANIEs.-
A full bench of the supreme court in Mas
sachusetts have just rendered an important
decision regarding the liability Of railroad
companies for accidents occasiOned or dam
ages sustained through the incompetency
Of their servants. Joel E. Gilman, an en-
ployee Of the Eastern Railroad Company,
sued the Company for damages sustained
ba an accident caused by drunken switch
man, and at trial in the supreme court,
before Judge Chapman, the jury returned
. verdict of $4,000, his injury having been
30 severe as 10 cause the amputation of his
leg near the thigh. Exceptions were tax
en-, and the case carried before the full
bench, which ordered judgment upon the
verdict, the rescript saying that ga rail:
road corporation which continues in it's
employment an incompetent servant af
his incompetency is known to its officers,
or so manifest that its officers, using due
care, would have known it, is liable for an
injury occasioned to fellow servant by
such incompetency." Most Of our rail-
road companies, we are glad to believe, do
exercise great care in the selection of their
employees, and aim to have none but re-
sponsible, reliable men in their employ
But it requires constant watchfulness to
see that no incompetent servants creep in
to responsible places, and this decision Of
the Court should serve as warning and
incentive to railroad managers to renewed
carefulness in this direction-Utica o.

The Mobile Times quotes the proclama-
ton of Gov. Patton, Of Alabama, and con-
siders that tho following passage is meant
and designed as joke:
"WHEREAs, During the present year we
have been graciously favored by an abund-
ant harvest and enjoy the inestimable
blessings Of peace and general good
health"
The paper says: "This is rich idea a.

its average, and selling at prices senta iling
twenty-five per cent. loss on cost IF pro-
duction-in presence Of . country torn up

MAxIMILLIAN's PRoPERrY.-The settle
ment of the estate of Macmillan is Civ.
ing trouble to his executors. His chateaus
Of Miramar and Lacrome are estimated at
about 81, 500, 900, but instead of yielding
any profit, they cost $50, 900 to keep them
up, besides being mortgaged for S400, 900.
There is some difficulty about this debt at
Trieste. which amounts to more than ST..
100000. The Belgian executors, in the
interest of their sister, wish these debts
to be paid by Austsia, on the ground that
they were contracted in the public service.
This is contested by the Austrian imperial
family.
The unfortunate princess, it is said, would
willingly pay her husband debts from her
private purse, if she was in state to au-
thorize such a measure but, as it is, it is
probable that the valuable collection of
works Of art, and Of Egyptian and Mexi-
can curiosities will be sold in order to set
tie the estate. The Princess Charlotte
condition does not improve, and may in
fact be considered hopeless.

General Hancock's order, announcing
his assumption of military command in
the fifth district, is the 6rst order Of the
kind that utters boldly and unhesitatingly
sentiments Of true fealty to the national
constitution. Gen. Hancock does not hes
itate to declare that the military power is
rightfully subordinate to the civil authori-
ty, and that its whole duty, in this country
is to support and defend the civil authori.
ties in their rightful administration of the
laws. Solemnly impressed with these
views" says General Hancock,
" The general announces that the great
principles of American liberty still are the
lawful inheritances of this people, and ev-
or should be. The right Of trial by jury,
the habeas corpus, the liberty of the press,
freedom of speech, and the natural rights
Of persons and rights of property must be
preserved. Free institutions, while they
are essential to the prosperity and happi.
ness of the people, always furnish the
strongest inducements to peace and order.
Crimes and offences committed in the dis
trict must be referred to the consideration
and judgment of the regular civil authori-
ties, and those tribunals will be supported
W III luOAi lawful JuIAsOtCtiou.
These are sentiments that alike become
the soldier, the patriot, and the statesman.
Had our political and military rulers, OF
even the majority of our people, been in
spired by such sentiments, the states would
long ago have been reunited in peace and
harmony and instead Of beholding one.
half of the Union pinned to the other hall
with bayonets, while both are struggling
under load of debt and misery that is
hardly endurable, we should see industry
and commerce fourishing and enriching
both people and nation.
It is hoped and believed that General
Hancock's administration in the fifth dis
trict will vindicate the wisdom of the law
full and constitutional course he has resolv
ed to pursue, and put to shame all who
have defended the high-handed usurpa
tions and despotic proceedings of the vain.

Young Girls.

Young Girls.
Our continental friends are astonished,
shocked, indeed, at the freedom which So
ciety allows our young girls. We can we'll
imagine how French matron, who thinks
a young woman unfit for society until she
has husband, should roll up her eyes at
the freedom of American girls in Paris
So, too, in Germany, where young man
is not allowed to call upon young lady
except in the presence Of her parents, un-
til he is engaged to marry her, it is hardly
to be wondered at that the liberty Of young
American womanhood should be regarded
with suspicion. Some OF their correspon-
dents have discovered, indeed, that the
"eifect of American customs upon society
is not bad" Of course it is not bad
American society, in this respect, 10 the
nearest approach to what is natural and
what is proper. The continental habit of
keeping girls under the lock and key Of
custom reminds one very strongly OF ORR
entail barbarities. The idea that a young
man must fall in love with woman, and
marry woman, with barely an acquaint-
ance with her, is very suggestive of Cir
cassian money transactions, trading for
female flesh. bartering for slave. This,
however, is the custom both In Germany,
and France. Like those accustomed to
other absurdities, the German people and
the French have come to think their own
ways are the only proper ways, and are
just waking up to the fact that society
may possibly be pure in which young girls
are not kept studiously in the shadows OF
the back parlor, protected from young men
by the intervening skirts Of mamma and
the spectablcs of mon pere. Foreign GUS
toms are, in fact, a perpetual insult to the
woman Of society. Young girls are con-
stantly reminded that they cannot be trust
ed. The only effect is, Of course, that
they themselves soon believe they cannot
be trusted. Among a large proportion of
continental ladies, this imposition is never
eradicated. The effect of such state Of
things cannot certainly be good. We may
have too much license at times in Ameri-
can society, but it is infinitely better that
young women be trusted, and learn to
trust themselves, than that they should be
taught that society has no confidence in
them.-Erch. 81

A Deserted Wife Robbed and Betrayed.

A girl, probably between sixteen and TWEEN
ty years of age, was referred to the Mayors
Office by the Chief of Police, to procure her
passage to Cincinnati, with the statment that
her baggage had been stolen and that her
condition was eminently deserving ofconsid-
Grafton and assistance.
The girl, who carried with her an infant
about year old, had most prepossessing
appearance and evidently belonged to a re-
spectacle position in society. She stated that
she came to this city on Friday, from Rock
Island, Ill. She had been living at Rock
Island with her husband, until recently, when
the man deserted her, and she having ascer-
tanned that he had a wife living when he
married her and that he had gone to reioin
this woman, determined to return to her home
in Ohio, about hundred miles from Cincin,
natl. When the steamer arrived IN this city
one of the deck hands took her to a German
boarding house, where she remained day
or so but not liking it she asked the man
whom she thought was her friend, to direct
her to some other place, and she states he
took her to a house up town, where she re
manned all Sunday, and then discovered it
was house of prostitution Officer Sturdy
in some way heard of her position and came
to the house and took her away, bringing her
to the station. On inGuiring at the first
boarding house she stopped at she found her
trunk had been carried off by the man she
met on the boat, and nothing has been vet
ascertained respecting it and thus without
money or friends, and only few articles Of
attire for herself and child, her position was
certainly calculated to excite pity and in
woke the assistance fof the charitable. She
gave her name as Ellen Murray, and stated
that she had an uncle living in this city some
time ago bat that he had removed to Cincin
natl. On her story being told the Mayor
he Immediately caused such assistance to BIZ
offered her as was necessary. Passage was
secured for her to Cincinnati by this morn
ing's train, and lodging for the night provi
ded at the police station-.St. Louis Repub

We certainly do not pretend to set forth
the scorn which must have been felt by ev-
cry sef-respecting American citi-
zen on reading of the investigation Just
made by a committee of congress into the
pirate banking account of President John
son. A meaner more pitiable insult it
would be impossible to conceive, or one
more fit to come in at the end of the paltry
assaults which have been made by congress
upon the executive. To be impeached for
singh crimes and misdemeanors'' may not
be the most agreeable thing in the world
but it is honorable compared with being
compelled to submit to such inquisitions as
this. We suppose the Judiciary committee
will give to the country the result of their
researches into Mr.. Johnson's bank account
and furnish us the date and amount of de.
posts, with the number and magnitude OF
the drafts. 1t would be as well, after carry.
ing matters thus far, to prosecute the inves.
tigation still further, and ascertain how the
President came by each hundred dollars put
to his credit-how much he saved of his sal.
ary, how much accrued from his property,
how much he made by investments, and SO
forth 1t would be better the work should
be done thoroughly, if done at all. But still
we do not believe that the American people
whatever they may think of the President
policy, will regard with patience such petty
exhibitions of partisan malice.-Neac Iorh

How DEEP CAN SHAFTS BE SUNK THE
question occurs to the miner who sinks down
a shaft for three or four hundred feet Glow
far might / descend with out being burnt out
or froze out, and which," To answer this
the student of natural science has only to
bear in mind that the increase of tempera-
ture is estimated at about one degree Fahren-
heit for every fifteen yards of descent. The
increase is said to be in geometrical pro-
gression; and, taking as correct the pre-,
sent observed rate of increase, the tempera
ture would be as follows water will boil at
the depth of 2,430 yards lead will melt al
the depth of 8,400 yards red heat will obtain
at the depth of seven miles; gold will melt
at the depth of twenty one miles. The stan
dard works on pyremetry or the measurment
of heat have it that the planet is fluid at the
depth of 100 miles from where we stand. II
this should be so, we are not SO far from 8
hell upon earth as old bachelors and infdel'
| imagine.
