LIABILITY OF CITIES FOR DEFECTIVE SIDE
wALKs.-Tbe long established doctrine that
cities are liable for damages caused by defec-
tive sidewalks has been repudiated by the Su-
preme Court of Michigan. The case was that
of a lady in Detroit through defect in the
sidewalk 1t came up before the Supreme
Court upon writ of error, the claimant hay-
ing obtained a verdict in the Court below. The
Court decided, Chief Justice Campbell giving
the opinion, that the city is not thus liable and
that In order for such liability to accrue, the
Legislature must pass a law creating it. The
decision implies that as the case now stands
there must not be merely neglect, but active
malfeasance on the part of the corporation.
Justice Cooley dissented, on the ground that
hitherto, in other countries and States, the
| Courts have held, in accordance with sound
| public policy, that a municipal corporation Is
| chargeable with the duty of keeping streets IN
| repair, and possessing the means of repair, is
held liable to the individual who suffers injury
by failure of it to perform its duty He was
yery ayerse TO this aunulling of the old and
| settled determination of the Courts of other
sta,es Int he was oyerruled, and the evil
which i, to follow must be remedied by tho
| Legislature.

The TABLES TURNED,-Some time ago we
gave an account of the way quite large girls
are fogged in the English schools, a manner
that would be called indecent in this country.
We are glad to see by the following account,
which we take from an English paper, that in
that in one instance a girl had a suitable re-
venge, and made the teacher feel how good it
was to be strapped. A spirited girl broke
some of the school regulations, the penalty of
which was whipping. She rebeled, and re-
fused to submit to the castigation. Her par
ents were written to for permission to restrain
her. She being an officers daughter, word
was sent that discipline must be enforced she
must resign herself to the punishment She
would not yeid, ,and therefore was forcibly tied
down, exposed and fagellated. AS a further
penalty for mutiny, she was compelled to
spend her vacation az school. She was six
teen years of age, and the insult and indigni-
ty offered TO her womanhood ranked. With
her young cousin, midshipman, she con-
cocted plan for revenge. SEEING the oppor-
tunity when the household were abroad and
the matron alone, obedient to a signal, the
midshipman was on hand, and assisted to gag
| and strap the matron down. Then he disap-
peared, and the young lady, approprating the
| same Instruments with which she had been
tortured (leather thongs), with all her strength
| laid them upon the bare person OF her ln-
structor, whom she then lett to regain liberty
as she could, while she sought the protection
| of an uncle. Her relative who was rich and
| powerful, while appearing to censure, really
| espoused her cause, negotiated with her pa
rents, and, finding her embittered against
them, and unwilling to return home, hnally
| adopted her.
