LIABILITY OF LANDLORDS. = The
Detroit Post of a recent date, had the
following item of interest TO hotel
keepers: "The case of Henry Colgate
against Luther Beecher was tried in
The Superior Court yesterday, and re-
suited in verdict for the plaintiff for
the full amount claimed, some $500.
IN June last Colgate, who was travle-
ing agent for a New York firm, was a
guest at the Biddle House, Of which
Luther Beecher was the keeper. On
the night of the. 18th of that month
he retired at about IL o'clock, placing
his vest, in the pocket of which We're
$500 in money, and watch worth
about 800, on table by his bed. The
night was warm, and the transOm over
the door was left open for the purpose
of ventilation. During the night some
thief entered the room through the
tmnsOm, or succeeded through that
opening, as it is supposed, in getting
hold OF the vest, in some manner, and
walked 7 Off with it and all it's con-
tents, which have not since been seen.
The Court held the inn-keeper liable
for the robbery of his guest, and the
Jury returned a verdict for the full
amount stolen. The defense sought to
prove that the hotel provided safe
for yaluables, and that notice was Civ
en- on the hotel register and bills of
fare, that the landlord would not be
responsible for valuables not deposited
in the safe, and a nice question arose
whether the valuables of which the
plaintiff was robbed were such as
ought properly to have been deposited
in the ssafe.p IAW

A Postal Romance.


THE Melbourne correspondent of the
Hay Standard tells the following very I'M
probable story Of Sir George Bowen: Sir
George Bowen, it must be remembered,
resided, at the commencement OF his OH.
cial career, in the IOnian Islands, and
there il was he met the lady who now
bears his name and title. At the time OF
their first meeting, Lady Bowen was then
a widow, / believe, with a firm determine
ton TO remain such, and this, having come
TO the knowledge of the young attache,
prompted within him mischievous spirit
to test the lady's strength of will. From
his diplomatic education, he considered
that he could safely carry on the siege
without danger to himself, and possibly
he might have done so, only, as the i'm
mortal bard says, there is tide in the
affairs of man." and so in the end found
the youth who had schemes against
woman's resolve. The charming widow,
in reality, was tired of her solitary life,
and was by no means averse to changing
her state Of single blessedness, and the at
tache was far from Indifferent to her, but,
neither in the Ionian Isles or elsewhere,
would lady acknowledge almost TO her
self such weakness The game began
and was carried on with ardor on one side
add apparent indifference on the part of
the lady. The youthful state man, be-
tween inditing state documents and anna
tory verses, was fully occupied, SO much
so that one day he composed two papers,
one for the widow and one proposing a
certain demand to friend on matter
which he said they had long been con-
sidering, and if it was agreed upon re-
ply was to be forwarded. With due Off
cial care the letters were dispatched, and
no more thought was needed in the mat
ter. The lady and gentleman met few
days after, when one morning near rela-
tive of the lady calls and informs our di-
plDmatist that his offer is accepted by the
fair widow, while his friend drops in to
know what the deuce he means by send
ing him an acrostic and passionate verses
of the power of his eyes, which everyone
had acknowledged very Indifferent Our
poor diplomatist found, as did Sam Wei
Ter, that the widow was too much for him,
quietly struck his colors and surrendered
himself captive to his Greek enslaver.
Lady Bowen is woman of high accom-
plishments and dtstsngus manner.

Eating without an Appetite.

1t is wrong to cat without an appetite,
for 1t shows there is no gastric juice in
the stomach, and that nature does not
need food, and not needing it there being
no fluid to receive and act upon it, it re-
mains there only to purify, the very
thought of which should be sufficient to
deter any man from eating without an ap-
petite for the remainder Of his life. If a
tonic is taken TO whet the appetite it is a
mistaken course, for its only result is to
cause one to eat more, when already an
amount hae been eaten beyond what the
gastric jui64 is able to prepare. ~
The object to be obtained is a larger
supply of gastric juice, not larger sup
ply Of food; and whatever fails to accom-
