Breach of Promise.

A suit for breach of promise-Amands
j. Craig versus E. c. Sprague-has beer
tried recently in the Circuit Court for Dr
Page County, Illinois, which resulted in
a verdict of 100000 for the plaintiff
Some of our exchanges speak of the
affair as one of Love, Romance, and Ig-
Inorance Craig was intelligent and po-
etc; Sprague was uneducated and veal
thy. Craig had been twice disappointed,
which was known to Sprague. The let
tiers, which were read in Court and have
been published, were lavish in express
sions of love--too much love, to be real
and enduring. Had Sprague and Craig
been married, the sequel might have fur
nlshed the data for another romance :
=" Married but not Mated" But, like
others not mated, if they had determined
to make tho best of married life, though
unsuited to each other, they might per-
haps, have lived amicably and har-
moniously. together. Such marriages,
| However lack some of the essential ele-
ments of true aaa7riage, and are generally
unfortunate.
Had Sprague been satisfied to have
broken the engagement, and relied in his
defence upon their unsuitableness for
each ether and their want and, perhaps,
the impossibility of True Love, the, meas
ule of damages would have been, and
should have been found by the jury, the
damages that Craig sustained in conse-
quence of the disappointment, in view of
all the circumstances But Spragues de-
fence was that he broke the engagement
in consequence Of Craig's having been
pregnant, and having had abortion pro-
cured, as she had told him. Of the truth
of this defence Sprague entirely failed to
convince the jury, notwithstanding his
own oath and the oath of physician,
thought to be suborned, and now in Jail
for contempt of Court in refusing to an
swer questions which might have shown
the falsity of the defence against Craig.
Had Sprague succeeded in this, it would
have destroyed the character and perhaps
all future prospects of Craig for this life.
But failing, the jury took into consid-
Grafton the effort made, and awarded
damages not only for the breach of prom
Use but also for the effort which, if success
full, would have destroyed character, hap
piness, and prospects for life And they
allowed the full measure of damages
claimed by Craig, and the verdict of the
Jury is approved by the Court and by an
enlightened public sentiment.

nsA9 After the fire, this morning,
Hibernia En- CINE Company, No. 5, took
the hydrant in front of the lecture
room of the First Presbyterian Church,
and exercised" the engine. A load of
hay, in passing, was set on fire by the
sparks emitted from the steamer, and
considerable danger was unprecedented
for the safety of the hay; but the boys
who held the pipe at once turned a
powerful stream ON the same, and COM
pletely eXtinguished the flames. We
rather guess that load will weigh more
than a ton, and the owner more bene-
fitted than otherwise by the accident.

To Young MEN.-To the lackadasic-
al youth with an inner consciousness OF
fitness for ''great life MISSION" we
particularly commend the following
sensible advice =
1t is easier to be good business
man than poor one. Half the ener-
gy display in keeping ahead, that is
required to catch up when behind, will
save credit, give more time to business,
and add to the profits and reputation
of your work. Honor your engage
ments. If you promise to meet man,
or do certain thing at certain NOM
ent, be ready at the appointed time.
II YOU have work to do, do it at once,
cheerfully, and therefore more speedl-
ly and correctly. If you go on bust
ness attend to the matter promptly,
and then, as promptly go about your
OWL DuSluoSS' bo NV ntoP w VII "oo
ries in business hours.
If you have place of business be
found there when wanted. No man can
get rich by sitting around stores and
saloons. Never 'sfool on business
matters. If you have to labor for liv-
ing, remember that one hour in the
morning is worth two at night. IT, you
employ others, be on hand to see that
they attend to their duties, and to di-
rect with regularity, promptness, hber-
atty. Do not NEEDLE with any bust
ness Won know nothing of. Never buy
any article simply because the man
who sells it will take it out in trade.
Trade is money. Time is money. A
good business habit and reputation is
always money. Make your place OF
business pleasant and attractive then
stop there to wait on customers.
Never use quick words, or allow
yourself to make ungentlemanly re-
marks to those in your employ, for to
do so lessons their respect for you and
your influence over them. Help your
self and others will help you. Be faith
full over the interests confined to your
keeping, and in all good time respon,
sibilties will be increased, Don't be
in too great haste to get rich. Do not
as you hope or work for success
spend your time in idleness. If youl
time is your own, business will suffer
if you do. If it is given to another
for pay, it belongs to him, and you
have no more right to steal it than tc
steal money. Strive to avoid harsh
words and personalities. Do not kick
every stone in the path more miles
can be made i'll day by going steadily
than by stopping to kick. Pay as you
90. A man of honor respects his wore
as he does his bond. Ask, but never
beg Help others when You can, bu
never give when you cannot afford to
because it is fashionable. Use you
own brains rather than those of others
Keep ahead rather than behind thu
times. Young men, cut this out, an(
if there is folly in the argument let u
know.
