A Curious Case.

Day before yesterday" says this
mornings Register, " a very curious case
was up before bis Honor Esquire Win.
tiers for trial, which, to say the least OF
it, created considerable amusement.
The evidence showed that some time
since DR.. VIM. w. White offered to and
did trade horses with Mr.. John d. Wal
dram, agreeing at the time to pay Wal
dram something to boot. Dr.. White (his
two elder brothers and his mother not
being satisfied with the trade) re-
plevied the animal upon the grounds,
as the evidence showed, that the doc
tor was yet, in the eyes of the law
an infant (under twenty-one years
of age), and consequently invalidated
from making bargain or contract. Mr..
Waldran based his defense on the fol
lowing points: First-That horse was
necessary to practicing physician, even
if he was an infant in the eyes of the
law. Second-That DR.. White had de-
ceived him by representing to him that
he was full grown man and graduated
physician of the Louisiana Medical Col
lege, which, DIR. White stated, requires a
graduate to be twenty-one years of age.
We give the simple facts of the case
without comment. Squire Winters has
not yet rendered his decision"

the action Of the Grand Jury. John is

A GREAT TIME in DANBURY.
The Reason why Mr.. O'CIarenee

The Reason why MIR. O'CIarene,
did NOS Appear I'm the Firemen'i
Procession.
From the Danbury News.l
The iremen had a parade on Satur
day. 1t was a fine affair, but the ab
sence of Mr.. % Clarence was deeply felt
not by the department, but by the pub
lie. Els long and faithful services al
| the business meetings and festivals, and
his splendid bearing on parade, has
given Mr.. O'Clarence an enviable posi-
| ton in the hearts of his countrymen.
We ere sorry he was not present Satur-
day. But an unlocked for and very
painful accident deprived him and us OF
a great pleasure.
The night which preceded the last an
niversary of our national independence,
he took home twenty-five dollars worth
of fireworks for splurge on the next
night He calculated he had glory
enough in that package to iill with graft
tude and admiration every taxpayer on
North street, and his wife, after care
fully examining the lot, was equally
confident that the neighbors would see
something that would make their eyes
"bung out, as she pensively ex-
pressed it.
The next morning O'Clarence got out
the bundle to look at it again and feed
on the anticipation. There were these
cannon crackers = several packs-and
roman candles, and blue FIRE, and pin
wheels and rockets and the like-a very
creditable assortment for any family.
Mr.. Wickiords boy from the next house
was in, and sat on the floor holding a
piece of lighted punk in his hand, and
had both his eyes and mouth wide open
enjoying the sight. 0'Clarence was
sitting on his launches, holding a PIN
wheel in his hand and explaining TO
Mrs. 0'Clarence how cheaply they could
be made in China, and how superior in
industry were the Chinese to all other
races. None of them know how it hap
pened, but O'Clarence remembers that
there we're two open packs Of cannon
crackers Just under him, and thinks
Wickiords boy must have in some way
dropped the punk in among them, and
in the general interest forgot that it was
afre.
At any rate, there was a sudden hiss,
right under Mr.. 0Clarence, followed in
the next instant by tornado Of sounds
and sparks, and that gentleman at once
shot toward the ceiling in a blaze Of
various colored lights, while the air be-
came thick with sparks, blue lights,
blazing balls, Industrious piRwheels. in
sane sky rockets and sereeehing crackers. |
Mrs. O'Clarence fell over a chair that |
cost eight dollars when new. and struck /
the back Of her head against the stove |
hearth with violence that added ma
terially 70 the display Of fireworks al /
ready going on. Wickford's boy was
struck in the mouth with a sky rocket, |
and two-thirds OF his hair taken Of by a |
Roman candle, and was knocked through /
a doorway by q piece Of ordnance just
introduced this season, aRd which will /
undoubtedly become popular when IN
