Of this district by David A. Burr, as counsel
for Joseph Rodgers & Sons, the celebrated
cutters, OF Sheffield, England, against Messrs.
Phillip L. Soiomons, the sta,ioners. who
have contract for supplying the Treasury
Department with Rodgers g. Sons pen
knives, erasers. etc. The complaint alleges
that the defendants have been selling i1ni-
tation knives. bearing the counterfeit Of
their trade mark. The defendants Gid not
deny the sale Of these imitation knives, but
allege that they We're manufactured in Ger

who have royal license from the Prussian
government for a trade mark similar 10
that Of Rodgers X Sons. OF England, and
have long been imported and sold in this
country. They furthermore contend that
plaintiffs can not maintain their suit, in
view the fact that they have not registered
their trade mark in tie United States
Patent Office, as provided for in the act OF
Congress on the subject, passed in July
last. Justice Wylie. presiding. after hold
ing the case under advisement. to-day gave
a decision overriding and denying an in

the ground that the English firm had, BIZ a
neglect for series Of years to enforce such
rights as they were possessed OF under the
trade mark law Of this country, waived the

The firm which made the cutlery had also
rightto use the trade mark in Prussia. where
the goods were manufactured.

The New York Globe saws:

In one Of his last speeches General But.
Ter paid his respects to Warrington" Of
the Springfield Republican, as follows: HE
got elected clerk OF the House of Represen-
tatives. with salary Of $4,000 per year. In
1850 he got it increased to $1,000, and did
all the work OF the office himself Well. his
salary has been raised until he has now
been enabled to make it reach $500. IA
volee-"That's where he's smart!''l And if
that's s1nartness, is it not to be burden on
the taxpayers of the commonwealth This
reminds rs Of an incident which occurred
at the great taxpayers meeting at the
cooper Institute, in this city few days
ago. One Of the speakers said: Il knew Mr..
tweed when he wasn't worth anything, and
today he has fortune of ten millions OF
dollars ["Three cheers for the man worth
ten millions.' shouted some one in the
crowd.] The speaker couldn't see It. Such
men are too smart for the taxpayers.

The Terrebonne Banner saws:

The weather since our last issue has been
very changeable, occasional sunshine inter
spersed with heavy rains, and, in fact, from
the appearance Of the heavens for a few
days past. We had strong notions that the
predicted tidal wave was about to be real
lzed as fact; however, our good people
may sleep sound. as Professor Caleb G.
Forshey, an undoubted authority. has
settled the question. The only drawback
to our planters by the heavy rains is that it
prevents them from having their wood
hauled for rolling, but this will be made up
BY the Improvement in the cane, and, at
present, the prospect is fattering.

power Of God There is no looking forward

And what thought is that! Saved 81
Yes where the Cross has slain the enmity
of the natural heart, and has become the

when HES discipline shall end. there awaits
him the inheritance already his own-tle

must become to each of us-either foolish
