LIABILITIES OF ExrREss CompANlEs.
AN interesting case has just been
decided in Georgia affecting tho liza
bility of Express Companies, which
may bo of intercst to our. readers.
a jewcler in Atlanta, e. u. Earnest, i,
was in tho habit Of sending and re-
ceiving valuable packages through
the Southern Express Company. In
, February 1869, he went to the agent
in Atlanta with package containing
four diamond rings worth $785. The
package was wrapped in brown paper
without any value attached: The
'plaintiff refused to. give any values
although shown the stipulation of the
Company to pay only $50 in case of
loss of unvalued packages. 1t was
shown that while valuable packages
rwere carried in an iron safe, ordi-
mary packages were carried in
wooden box, and receipted for in
bulk. The cost of carrying the
package was ST. 90; had it been
valued, the cost would have been
t$3 so. The package was stolen at
Dalton by q ser 5ant Of the Express
agent. Tho plaintiff brought suit
and tho jury awarded him $50. lie
moved for new trial on the ground
that the jury by returning verdict
for damages had decided that the
Company was grossly negligent and
continued that if liable at all, it
should be liable for the whole value
of the lost articles. Judge Woods Of
the United States Circnit Court of
Georgia, ovorrulod the motion for
now trial. The points made by the
Judge are, That common carrier
may now, by express contract,
or by notices. brought to tho knowl-
edgo of tho owner of goods if assent
ed to by tho owner, limit his common
law liability. BY contracting with
him the owner agrees to regard him
in tho special transaction as a mere
bailor for hire. In this country, how.
cvor, it is held that common carrier

list what he saw in Holland:
In Holland it has been the Office of man
to subdue the sea and cause it to withdraw
from the marshy beds and broad lakes of
which it had so long held possession; and
then to make on the soil thus created a field
for the most profitable industry, and a
home for people which in many respects
is the most remarkable of the world.
We pride ourselves, and justly, on the
energy which has sent our pioneers into
the forests TO turn the virgin fertility of
their soils into the useful channel of profit

the waters back foot by foot, aud after

that have no equal in Christendom. In
some res;; sons, after the waters had been
iaorosed with ponderous dykes and then
pumped out by windmills, there were devel-
oped only vast beds of barren peat several
yards in depth. This was cut into blocks
and piled up to dry, preparatory to being
sold for fuel; tho vessels which took it to
market brought back the accumulated
refuse Of the towns, and this was used to
make a fertile soil in place of the infertile
one that had been removed. Thus the
