Mea.uring Brick.

A suit Of great importance to bull
slers has been decided in the New York
Court OF Common Pleas. A brickma-
son agreed to build house and charge
90 per thousand for laying the brick
When be came to measure the brick he
messured all the openings, windows,
doors, dc, as solid work, making his
bill S2300 larger than 1t would have
been had he only measured the solid
wall. The man for whom the work was
done .rcfused to pay'this S23oo, and the
man brought suit to force the payment,
pleading The custom of brickmasons in
his favor. The court decided that his
charge was illegal, and that he had no
legal right to charge for laying brick
that we're never laid This decision is
important to builders and contractors,
% other State courts would be likeiyito
follow the decision and precedent set
by the New York court. -.

The Loaned Umbrella.

Young Bliifkins, son OF old Blifkins
the banker--he ot the Dolly Warden
pants ani vest was recently caught in
shower, and took refuge under the
porlico OF dwelling on Beacon street
A very attractive young lady-pretty
Smaiden-wiio sat by the open window,
seeing his situation, sent out a servant
to him with AN umbrella. BlifFkins went
away in ecstacy. and, on the following
day, y,haying atiired himself in most elab-
oraie anu stunning array of starch and
Jewels, he took The umbrella, which was
An old one, and laid it away with his
treasures OF conquest as q, souvenir;
and then he went forth and purchased
an affair to replace it of the most costly
kind Thus equipped, he called upon
the lady to return the flattering loaE.-
She admitted him to her, presence, and
received the umbrella without apparent
IL aolicing the. exchange and it was not
until she had listened with becoming
gravity to his highly dramatic acknowl'
edgments tiidt the truth beamed upon
.her. She saw thatehe lahored under the
enchanting impression that she had been
smitten by his appearance.
"W Weally," said Blifkins, in sweet, po-
etc mood, .syoush tender act touched
me. Aw. it touched me deeply--it did
--'pon honaw.
.Indeed, sir" replied the maiden, with
charming Hairete, s'thore was no need
OF this gratitude on your part. As you
stood beneath our portico you obstruct-
ed my view Of gentleman at an -oppo-
site window who had been observing
ne. and I sent the umbrella as the
readiest means to get rid Of your un-
welcome pfesence" w."
Bliffkins went home and broke up the
old dumbrella, and consigned its hated
fragments to the asl-barrel

RICHMOND, VA. FRIDAY EVENING, MAY II, 1879

The GERMAN ELEMENT.-We yester-
day referred to the very palpable slight put
upon the German element of this city by
the Democratic nominating convention.
Their claims, though extremely modest,
were wholly ignored, and every single
German who aspired to nomination was
ruthlessly slaughtered. The Anzeiger of
this morning alludes to the action of the
convention in no very complimentary terms,
and predicts that as the Germans were ig-
nored by the nominating convention, the
party may find itself ignored by the Ger
mans on election day.
The Gazette, another of our daily Ger
man papers, indorses the Independent can
didature of John Rheinhardt, ESQ.,, and
speaks in the highest terms of that gentle
mans fitness for the office Of high con-
stable, of his public spirit as citizen, and
OF his genial social qualities. 1t is Justly
lncensed at the action of the Democratic
Convention.
Our German fellow-citizens are numer-
Gus, respectable, and among the most en-
ergetic and public spirited of our peo-
pie. Liberal themselves, they will not toll
crate the illiberality of others, and we are
not astonished to see them manifest pro-
per sense of indignation under the present

REMISSION OF TAXES ASKED FOR,-
Rush Burgess, Esq, collector of internal
revenue of this district, recently forwarded
to the Commissioner office, at Washing
ton, the applications of various shippers of
tobacco by the unfortunate steamer
George B. Upton." for a remission of the
taxes paid on the shipments, amounting in
all to about $4,000. The commissioner
has returned the applications, accompanied
by letter to Mr.. Burgess, saying, dThere
is no provision of law exempting tobacco so
destroyed from the payment of the tax, or
for the cancelling of the bonds, by reason
Of such destruction" 1t is understood
that the losers will ask Congress, through
Mr.. Plat, for relief, under the circum-
stances.
