SUIT OF MALPRACTlCE.-A suit has been IN
progress for the past two days in Saco against
DR.. Hersom of this city for malpractice. Last
evening the case resulted in an honorable &C
quittal for DR.. Hersom, much to the delight of
his many friends in this city. 1t appears that
one Mr.. Goodwin of Sanford, York; county,
was thrown from a wagon two years since and
fractured his left leg near the ankle joint, in
ducing what is known among surgeons as
''Pot's fracture" and is regarded by them as
a very difficult one to treat without deformity,
and is a peculiar injury, very rare in its occur
renee.
The case was tried before Judge Virgin, who
by his occasional and apt interrogatories ma
terially aided in calculating the facts in the
case. Drs. Tewksbury and Green of this city
were summoned as witnesses, one for the de-
tense and the other for the prosecution. Theil
evidence was subs santially the'same, and fully
iustified and sustained DR.. Hersoms treat
ment in the case, which was demonstrated to
be eminently proper and the only course to be
pursued. The result of the trial is the entire
yindication of DIR. Hersom, who row stands
even higher with the profession than before.

miles Off that at the time of their marriage he was
IT years cd and she 10; that they lived together
about twenty months in his fathers family that al
ter the first wear Baptist clergyman by the name Oh
Gardiner with his wife commenced boarding IN the
same familv this Gardiner became quite loo lamihar
with his wife he demonstrated, she pouted anu as
certed her innocence and declared her independence
ond ;nd;ference to what Mrs. Grundy might say.
The rasu,t was she returned to her fathers house,
and be remained in his In October, 1873, he came
to Portland attended the commercial college awhile,
worked in one place and another TIL year expired,
ord then filed this libel. He is now twenty-one
years of age.
Several witnesses came from New York State to
show that Harriet Elizabeth has been behaving I'M
prettv. One Nelson Myers of Pownal VT, says that
be came as dress maker to his house and fascinat-
ed his widower son Delos Myers of thirty, who at
one time was willing to marry her, but she behaved
en- badly with other men that as Yankee Hill says, he
has taken mis-likng to her. They are now at
swords points. His honor suspected collision and
endured the whereabouts of Delos, when it turned
up that he was in Portland awaiting the result Of
this trial. for what nobody could explain The
Judge asked the witness if there was not collision,
the witness innocently answered that he thought
there was.
The presidng judge was Of opinion that the libel
ant had not resided within the state for sufficient
length of time after he became of age to give the
court jurisdiction and for that reason dismissed the
libel.

Mr.. EDIToR-In your issue of the 18th inst,
it is stated that the new numbers "are ill ar
ranged and houses close beside each other are
ten numbers apart" Sections of the Ordi'
nance of the City Council relative to street
numbering are as follows: Sec. 2. 'There shall
be number for every lot not exceeding twen-
ty-five feet of land fronting on street, and a
mum Der for every additional twenty feet or
fraction thereof, excepting that on those streets
that are compactly built up, a plumber shall be
assigned for each and every door, and to ad-
joining vacant lots proportionally. Sec. 3.
1.-THE Board of Mayor and Aldermen may re-
ouire the city civil engineer, or they may en-
poy some competent persons to make plain
skeleton plan of each street, designating the
numbers and dimensions of all the
lots" etc. The said engineer has loca.
ted every house and door on the
street by actual measurements and has
laid down the same on a plan as prescribed.
On this are indicated the several lots with
their respective numbers, which have been
given to all applicants. If the numbers given
have been affixed, there is no place ON the
street where houses close beside each other are
ten feet apart A distance of twenty or TWEEN
ty-five feet makes but little show on street,
but the street is made up. OF such distances,
any one of which may hold a building at some
time, The city is not yet finished for any
great number of consecutive Twenty-Five feet
lots. Every applicant for the new number has
received certificate thereof. 1t it can be
shown that the plan shows ill arrangement IN
the specification of the numbers, the engineer
should be held responsible; otherwise an untrue
statement should not be published as true, or
as probable without due investigation. u.

had not recovered from his late illness. Under
such circumstances criticism would be unjust.

Mr.. Calder's rendition of Bob Briefly, which
was, all things considered, very creditable.

to assume their parts as originally cast. Even
