The Chancellor of New-Jersey has refused
an Injunction sought against the building OF
n railroad bridge across the Raritan River.
This bridge is an indispensable part of the
work of the New-York and Long Branch Cor
Southern New-Jersey) Railway. The progress
of the enterprise has been steadily opposed at
every step by the railway monopoly of New
Jersey; and the defeat of the opposition at
this point gives some assurance that selfish
and obstructive policy will not longer be able
to deprive Southern New-Jersey of an easy
outlet for its products.

The arralgnment OF stokes, yesterday, ulu
not result in the opening of trial which, fol-
many reasons, ought to have been concluded
long ago. Another special plea i'll bar was
submitted, and the case went over for the
day. But if nothing else was developed 1t
was established beyond doubt. what most
reputable lawyers have trusted was a false
report, that John Graham, one of the original
counsel for Stokes, and the one responsible
for the stupid policy of delay, had actually
abandoned his client in his great extremity
This action, now officially announced, is gen.
orally regarded by the legal profession as no
more to be justified than the abandonment by
physician of patient in a critical state OF
disease because of failure to follow his
every direction.
The minor troubles of life and small frauds
upon housekeepers are after all, the most vex-
atiOus. We take pains to point out some more
of the latter this morning, with no very def
mite idea of how to secure their correction, but
satisfied, from our past experience, that there
is virtue in publicity, and that it will help to
defeat the small rOgues who practice the
cheats We speak of the swindles as small,
but the aggregate of money lost to consumers
is immense, and the rOgues are certainly not
few in number. The exposures we are max
ing, and which we shall continue from time
to time, until we have told who is responsible
for the adulteration of our tea and coffee and
sugar and spices and bread, as well as meat
and milk, are worthy the serious study OF all
household economists, to whom we commend
the articles, and in whose interest they are

MARrINsvILLE IrENs.-We called to
see our friend DR.. West, who is located
in business at the old we'll known stand
which be purchased from Mr.. H. B.
Rice. The doctor has strange inclina-
ton to look after and do all the good
he can for the poor, perishipg, mortal
bodies of his fellow beings; if any OF
them get sick and loose their appetites,
Just so soon as they let him know, he
is off to see them, and will never give
them any peace until they agree to get
we'll. If they are well, he is always
preparing something for them to eat
and wear. If we are to judge from the
variety and abundance of groceries and
dry goods which he constantly keeps on
hand just to accommodate his friends.
And then it is so strange that he would
keep so many Of the good things Of life
just to give away, only receiving little
money for fear his friends and patrons
might think hard of him. The doctor
is queer fellow. Just call and see
him at his grocery and dry goods store
fl you want a bargain. He will be sure
to send you away in q good humor.

MALICIOUS MIsCHlEF.-On Sunday
night, a man named Henry Robinson,
who has been engaged as a workman
in the Crescent mill, was in the South
Wheeling glass house. Out Of pure
mischief he picked up piece OF white
glass and threw it into pot Of boiling
flint glass completely spelling it, and
causing loss Of $3.50. He was arrest,
ed and sent to Jail to await a hearing
before Squire. SCHULTZ last evening.
Just a week ago, pot OF glass was
spoiled in the same establishment,
When the proof" was taken on Sun
day evening the motion glass was all
right. On Monday, when they went to
work it, it had turned to a greenish
blue from the effects Of some coloring
matter thrown into the pot.

PAINFUL ACCIDENT.-On Saturday
evening quite a number OF boys got
brooms and commenced sweeping the
snow from the ice, on the river, near
the bridge, so that they might enjoy
themselves at skating. Boy-like, after
the sweeping was done, they got to
beating each other over the backs with
the brooms, for sport. While at this
rough play broom-handle broke off
aud splinter struck Harry Wade, one
of the boys, in the eye, injuring it so
severely that it is feared he will lose the
sight in it altogether. Of course it was
an accident, but if he loses the eye, it
will be terrible one for Harry.
