RESPONSIBILITY OF EXPRESS CoMPANIEs.-A case
of general interest has been recently decided In the
Supreme judicial Court of Massachusetts, to the
ericct that common carriers carrying packakes ad-
dressed to places beyond their routes are only
liable for losses on their own routes. and that in
the absence OF contract for further liability, If
they carry safely over their own route and de-
liver to o suitable carrier over the rest OF the
route, they are not liable for any loss that after
ward occurs. In the case In question Peter Pender-
CAST delivered to the Adams Express at Newbern,
n. c., package containing $500, addressed to Mrs.
Mary A. Pendergast, at Lowell Mass, and took the
usual receipt which was the sole proof OF contract
Adams 4 Co. owned the express route from New
bern to Boston, and there was another express
route from Boston to Lowell. There was evidence
that ADAMS h Co. delivered the package at Boston
TO the Lowell express, and the latter carried 1t the
next day to Mrs Pendergast when it was opened
and 800 was missing. In the Superior Court, the
trial being held in Lowell the jury was instructed
that defendants were liable as common carriers
through to Lowell and that plaintiff entitled to
verdict, and the jury found accordingly. The su-
preme Judicial Court has now reversed this decst0n
and ruled that upon this evidence the defendants
are not liable as commoil carriers beyond Boston,
and the verdict has been set aside.-L0,ceU fAass)

The "Charleson Courier" con-
tains the following: "The Ad-
visory Board, consisting of the
Governor, Comptroller General,
State Treasurer, Secretary of State
and Attorney General, created un-
der act Of the Legislature, have
appointed Senator Leslie Land
Commissioners of the State of
South Carolina. The act under
which the appointment is made bad
appropriates 100000 in bonds
of the State to the purchase OF
lands, to be sold on a credit of five
years to actual settlers, in sections
of not less than twenty-five nor
more than one hundred acres, the
purchaser to pay interest at the
rate of six per cent. per anunm, and

the purchase to pay one-ffth of

So, though no serious results
may follow our unkind words or
deeds, let US still remember they
are none the less cruel and wicked.
You. little girl or boy, may be un-
kind to your sister to-day, and she
may be taken from you tomorrow.
No dout if this be so, you will re-
pent sincerely of your evil-doing,
yet if Gods mercy spares her to
you, you will forget and treat her
unkindly again and again. But
remember that BE will write down
each offence, and some day you
will be reminded oft to your bit
ter sorrow. Be careful Of the lit
tie things-the ,hasty werd and
selfish act. With every one some
delicate nesting Of affection will
perish in the heart of your loved
one, to be revealed perhaps when
you most yearn for it a silent un-
responsive witness to your cruelty,
as poor Beauty's lifeless form was
to the ankindness of his master.

Love FOR THE LITTLE ONES
Looking at each other Aeross the
river, across the vallew, are the
white stones that mark the sleep
ing places of our dead. The tiny
soul buds, just softening and SWELL
ing in the sunshine Of paternal
love, just throwing the dimpled
tendrills around our necks, and
rumbling sweet, broken syllables
in our ears are, with one gust Of
snow, swept away and hidden in
the ground. There are the empty
chair, the little dress. limp for the
want of the little form, and the
crumpled shoes will be dented no
more with pattering feet; all
wreathed with sad remembrances
of the happy hours when the
closed eyes danced with wonder
at each fresh sight of the new Gre
alton. -...
Love for the little ones is all
the world round the same. The
sparrow croons just as tenderly
over her brownies as oriole over
hers clothed in velvet and gold.
Hearts are inside Of US all, and
no costly weaving makes love the
less or more. Brown hands can
build castles in the air as deity
as white fingers, and the wiring
with equal sorrow at the wreck.
But think how full of pleasant
ness the little lives have been; the
unfinished ring of their tiny years
has been plated all around with
love and blossoms, the scent of
the lilacs and the lilies. The MEM
DRY of carressings that IN after
years we forget, the dear ones
carry with them to heaven. Ban
ished from one paradise to ane>
ther-from this, where shadows
sometimes drive away smiles, to
where there are no shadows any
more.
Upon that mysterious, unknown
sea that rolls all round the world,
how many little souls daily drift
outf Mothers are crying on the
shore, of their great loss in an
guish and in tears. But yonder
invisible hands welcome the little
earth orphans and celestial voices
shout in glad delight another an
gel is born in heaven /!
