4 RIGHTEOUS DECISfON.-The New York
court of appeals lately rendered a decision
which ought to be, # il is not, followed by the
courts in every state in the Union. 1t was
upon note such as is frequently taken by
patcnt-right men and others. The swinde
attempted 10 be played in this case is one
which has often been praCticed by sharperS,
and if the courts will but put an end to it the
people Will have cause for gratitude. The de.
PENDANT in the case was applied to, to be
come agent for a patent hay.rake. He con.
scented and agreed to sign a note for 5000,
with contract in it that the note should be
paid out Of the profits Of the machines when
sold. \ regular note was made; at the bot,
tom of the note and under the defendants
signature, was n memorandum, that
the above note is to be paid from the profits
of machines when sold" The defendant was
told that the note was the same as il he had
signed below the memorandum, and so he
signed above. The memorandum was subsc-
qucntly cut off and the note passed into the
hands of a Joao fdo holder The court held
that the memorandum was part Of the note,
and cutting it off was an alteration of the
note, and thar j1na tile holder could not re
cover.

W. H. Platt, Esq, agent Of Dan
Rice's circus company, called on us
yesterday, and informed us that the
company will perform here again
about the 18th or 18th. Dan is go
ing down Bayou Lafouche to give
exhibitions at the towns along that
stream, and will show here either be-
fore or after making the trip. The
company labored under many disad-
vantages when here last, as most Of
the horses and some of the actors were
sick; but these drawbacks will not
trouble them when they come among
us again, and as the troupe has been
largely augmented by new attractions,
its next performance here will un-
doubtedly afford a first-class enter
tainment.
