that would darken his character.
The court said that the witness being
competent, was protected from answering
improper questions. His pardon by the
Governor made him new man, and he was
entitled by law to the same protection as
any other citizen. The defense has right
to investigate the character of the witness.
At this time Judge Abel announced that
his physical condition was such as to rem

Suit for Wages.

A case of considerable importance to manufacturers was recently heard in the Common Pleas Court at Hartford. The Post gives the poinls as follows " Suit was brought by two men against Landers, Frary & Clark, of New Brit ain, Conn.,, to recover wages due for labor. The defense claimed that suit was commenced before the regular pay day, and that the men had left the em- ploy of the company without giving four weeks notice, as it's rules require. Both of these points were admitted, but in answer it was said that the company made 8 small deduction on the price previously agreed upon, and that the company, by denying all liability on the ground that what would otherwise be due to the men was forfeited by their leaving without notice, waived their right to insist upon the mems waiting until the regular payday be- fore obtaining wages or bringing suit. Judge Stoddard (then holding court) found that 8 reduction in the price agreed upon by the company made a new contract, and the men could not be compelled to remain four weeks under the circumstances. He also held that the denial of any liability on the part of the company gave the plaintiffs the right to sue at once. The defense have carried the case to the Supreme Court "

The Protection of Game.

At the first meeting of the New York Association for the Protection of Game for the season of 1873-74, the counsel for the club made statement of the prosecutions which had been commenced since the ,14th of March last, showing that twenty-seven suits had been insti- tuted at cost of about five hundred dollars, all of which had been decided except two or three. and those that had been decided were in favor of the asso- citation. The association had stopped the sale of game out of season in New York, but the sportsmen of Long Island, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Connecticut, and the far West had not made the slightest effort to prevent the wholesale destruction of game. The club had done great deal of good in instructing the people as to when the different kinds of game were and were not in season, and it seemed as if they ought to get some little assistance from the country clubs,

After the Verdict.

A New York paper, describing the trial of Wm. M. Tweed, says: Sitting near Tweed on his left hand was Rich ard Tweed, the brother of the accused, an aged, white-haired and white bearded man, with the same prominent features noticeable in all the male members of the Tweed family. Richard Tweed seemed greatly moved at the disgrace of his brother. Closer in the circle sat young Tweed, or General" Wm. M. Tweed. The young man is 8 dark-vis- aged person, with side whiskers, and has the name of a good-natured young fellow about town. His eyes were red with weeping, and he seemed over whelmed with the disaster which had befallen his father. Behind the prison CT sat his son-in-law, Ambrose Magin- his, of New Orleans, whose bridal hour had been crowned with diamonds and silks. Mag1nnis' face betokened real sorrow. At the right of Tweed sat Charley Lawrence. He wore glasses, and looked at Judge Davis appealingly, but that face was like the face of rock set against storm. Tweed himself seemed struck with dismay. His face blanched as his old political companion, " AAoA WAOH A0 AdO 1Su III IuHuy WdrQ and General Committee struggle, placed his hand on his shoulder-the hand of the law-and asked him if he was ready. Tweed tried to smile, nodded his head that he was ready, and Sheriff Brennan beckoned to his deputy, Shields. Passage was made slowly, and the numerous bands of Tweed sympa- thizers gave way on either side-Tweed and his friends passing into an adjoin- ing room. The doors were shut and the prisoner disappeared. A small group gathered in the ante chamber, and Rich ard Tweed shook hands with his broth CT and said to him:
 "I guess it will be all right in the end." +...s '.@.f...H
 "I hope so, am sure," said Tweed.
 The Sheriff and his deputies went out to get carriage and to elude the ex- cited crowds, and mass after mass of the people poured out and through the immense Court House. Down the TO- tunda they rushed and out into Cham bers street, cursing and swearing and tramping on each other. A carriage drove rapidly down Chambers street from Broadway. Sheriff Brennan came quickly from the west side of the Court House with Tweed and Deputies Shields and Carroll. The door was slammed to with sharp dash, and the horses heads were turned towards Broadway, the crowd rushed after the carriage hither and thither among the horses feet.

A Cool Proceeding,

During the trial of case before the Justice Court, in Providence, recently, when a witness, a North Providence officer, was called he was not there. Inquiry drew out the statement that he was gone to get 8 lunch. The court waited some little time for his return, and as he came in his honor called him to account for his absence. He replied that he had been out on business. The court then fined him $5 and costs for contempt of court, saying that under ordinary circumstances no notice would be taken of such action, but he was an officer and knew better. With cool ness inimitable, the officer took out a well-flled pocketbook, and saying that he met man on the street who owed him $400, and he went with him to the bank and got it, he handed his honor the required amount and coolly took his place on the witness stand and went on with his testimony as though nothing had happened, though every body in the courtroom manifested a deal of agitation. ..

CHOLERA AND PAIN IN-KIL1ER.-The eff cacy of Perry Daviss world renowned Pain Killer in all diseases of the bowels, even in that terrible scourge, the Asiatic Cholera, has been amply tested by the most convincing a1- thority. Missionaries in China and India have written home in commendation of this remedy in terms that should carry conviction to the most skeptical, while it's popularity in commu- mites nearer home is ample proof that the vir- tues claimed for it are real and tangible. The Pain-Killer has been before the public over thirty years, and has won deservedly high reputation as an alleviator of pain and pre- server of health. It has become household remedy, from the fact that it gives immediate and permanent relief. It is purely vegetable preparation made from the best and purest materials, safe to keep and to use in every family. It is recommended by physicians and persons of all classes, and to-day, after public trial of over thirty years-the average life of man-it stands unrivalled and unexcelled, spreading it's usefulness over the wide world. It's large and increasing sale affords positive evidence of it's enduring fame.-Con,
