Every Court should watch with jealousy every en-
croachment upon the rights OF seamen, because
they unprotected and need counsel; because
they are thoughtless and need indulgence; because
they are credulous and complying and are easily
overreached- They are considered as placed
under the dominion and influences of men who have
naturally acquired mastery over them; and as they
have little of the foresight and caution belonging to
persons trained in other pursuits Of life, the
most rigid scrutiny is Instituted into the terms Of
every contract" Seamen are sometimes tenacious
enough of their rights, but a rule they are ouly
too well known for their reckiessness and mproyi-
deuce, hence the for regarding them almost
in the light of :" Wards in Admiralty" But this
indulgence does not extend to employers. Even
with the men, evidence of previous agreement by
parole would not control subsequent written
agreement, reasonably and mutually assented 10.
Hence there may be cases in which employers would
be bound by stipulations, while the seamen may at
option avoid them, and clkim the benefit Of the
general law. Suppose Consular valuation in this

the case was preferred by Mrs Fullgraft who
narrated the circumstances of the larceny. Her
sympathies were first enlisted in the prisoners
behalf, by hearing the story Of her life from
friend who requested some assistance for the des-
titute woman, while she was preparing to give a
series of dramatic readings in Long Branch and
in this city Mrs. Fulgraf was so deeply az
fected by the recital that she opened her heart
to the unfortunate artistic, and provided for her
a comfortable room in her own home, in East
Seventeenth street, furnishing her with necessary
articles of clothing Of which she was in need. In
the meantime notices of the readings had been
circulated and, through the influence Of Mrs.
Fullgraf. inserted in the newspapers. As the
time for the readings approached, Mrs. Fullgraf
loaned Mrs, Seely black silk dress. valued at
$50. to make her first appearance 10. And row,
Matilda first showed her ingratitude to her pat
ron by coming home grossly intoxicated and ruin
ing carpet. This ofense was overlooked alter
the protestatious and promise Of good behavior
usual in such cases, and everything went smooth
y until the 4th of August when the actress left
the house while all we're at dinner carrying away
with her three bundles, which she left in store
in the neighborhood for safe keeping and never
returned for them.
She was subsequently arrested, charged with
stealing the dress, bonnet, and some other ar
ticles, aud on the trial yesterday her guilt being
fully established, the jury gave verdict accord
ingy, accompanying it with recommendation to
mercy. She was sentenced to the State Prison
for 215 years.
