either express or imply that parties pur-
chasing for use or for sole are liable for
damages for selling or using machines
that are an infringement on any other

2. Can parties procure letters patent

uses a machine that contains any in
fringement of lawful patent does 50 at
his own risk (unless the seller covenants
to protect him and is able to do it,, aud
the fact thatthe machine he buys has been
patented will not avail to shield him

Fremont Marble Works.

Whatever other may say about trade
being duh it is truly refreshing to us,
weekly, to pay visit to Messrs. PURDY
& GUsT's Marble Works, on the East
Side. Go when you will they are steady
at the wheel. We, this week, found
them in receipt of the finest, and proba-
bly, the largest consignment of marbles
ever brought to this city. Being prac-
tical mechanics they are excellent judges
and secure, none but the best of stone.
They buy very heavily direct from the
quarries-pay cash-get discount, and
offer their work at prices that defes
competition. Particularly did we notice
among their execu, ID work ON hand,
three very handsome spiral monuments
one of them, in mottled blue marble,
being singularly uniqe and attractive.
In the way of monuments, tombs, head
or foot stones, no State can surpass
them for artistic design, execution OF
moderate prices. They are resolved
none shall say they cannot afford to
mark the last resting place Of their rel
atives on friends, and have brought their
work down to that minimum price that
the humblest may, alike, with the rich,
do lasting honor TO the departed.

Arrested on Suspicion.

On Wednesday morning last, officer
Moore noticed two rough looking custo-
mers get off the train at the depot, and
as one of them bore strong resem-
blance to tie description of one of the
persons implicated in the murder of po-
hceman Kiel of Cleveland, he took them
in charge and lodged them in Jail, mean
while telegraphing to the Superinten-
dent of police of that city for some one
to identify the prisoners. A detective
arrived in the evening, but failing tc

over night. In the morning they were
allowed to leave town.

To their dismay they were unableto find
fresh water, and the only food II yielded
was a few cocoanuts. Foreseeing that
they must soon perish if they remained
there, the captain resolved upOn q des-
perate attempt to reach Tahiti. With
six men he started on the following day
in an open boat. On the second day af-
ter leaving the island they were picked
up by the Tahitian schooner Island Belle,
which Immediately started for the is
land and rescued the remainder of the
party in an exhausted condition. The
captain of the Island Belle fed and cared
for them, and transported them to the
island of Awsa, where he transferred
them TO the schooner Mary, by which
they were safely conveyed to Papete,
where they arrived twenty-six days after
the loss Of their vessel. Captain God
frey and his men will arrive in this city
in few days on the Greyhound, barring
accident.

AN AWFUL NIGHT.
A Ship Tnrns Bottom up in the Paci-
tlc Ocean, in Storm and Darkness
---Frightful Loss Of Life.--Suffer-
ings Of the Survivors.


Thd Sanfrancisco Chronicle of May l
says: The British bark Mariana, which
arrived yestarday from Tahiti, brought
news which explains the non-arrival Of
the schooner Margaret Crochard, which
was long overdue. The advices are from
the Captain of the schooner, and from
the master of an English vessel, who was
apassenger on her. From them it appears
that the worst apprehensions regarding
the Orockard were true. The schooner
left Papete on the 22d of February for
this city, with complement of eight
men, including the officers, and a light
cargo of oranges and tamarack logs. She
had on board as passengers a Mr.. Os-
good, of Papete, and the captain and
crew-twenty-one in number of the
British ship Airey Force, which was
wrecked about three months ago on
Mangariva Island, in theSouth Sea. The
men of the Airey Force, aftera ser
les of adventures and hardships, succeed
ed in reaching Tahiti, where they were
cared for by the British Consul, who
placed them on board the Crockard for
this port on their wayhome.
During the first day out the Crockard
experienced fair weather, and being a
fast sailer she sped rapidly toward her
destination. On the second day she en-
countered stiff breezes and heavy seas,
but being staunch craft, no fears were
entertained, About dusk the gale began
to come in squalls and the rain fell. Al
half past eleven O'Clock heavy squall
suddenly struck her, with such force as
to throw her on her beam ends. The
halyards were let loose and an attempt
was made to get the sails offforward, bui
after mOmentary struggle the vessel
yielded to the force of the element and
turned bottom upward.
The calamity came so suddenly that
those who were below had not time to es
cape. Many of them awoke in the wa
ter, with every avenue of escape cut off
The crew of the schooner being on decl
had time to realize their peril, and make
their way to one of the boats. Captain
Godfrey, who had just before gone be
low, escaped through a skylight. OF
the four passengers in the cabin, Cap
tain Collier, of the Airey Force, alone
succeeded in making his way out o
his men, who were all below, but sever
were ever seen afterward. John Elder
the second mate of the Crockard, VIII,
was asleep, was drowned, and OsgooC
met the same fate. Fourteen men, in
cluding the two captains, succeeded il
reaching one Of the boats and getting
clear Of the vessel. They remained nea
her until daylight, when they succeede,
in picking up few oranges and kit o
mackerel With no other provision
but these they set ont for the island o
Matahiya, 13Omilaa distant, this beingthl
nearest land. After four days, durinl
which their Buforings from hunger ant
thirst were intense, they reached the Il
land, which proved TO be aninhabi6ed

Replies and Decisions on Questions Of
q Practical Nature.

From the New York journal Of Commerce.
Question: wife of resident of the
State of Connecticut goes into business
in her own name, buying and selling,
and contracting debts here and in the
State of New York, Failing to pay her
debts, viii the laws Of Connecticut or
New York give her creditors lien on
the property of her husband Or if the
Connecticut laws give lien and the
New York do not, can the New York
creditor avail himself of the Connecticut
laws, the debts being contracted under
the New York laws
Reply.-The husband is not liable in
any case where the married woman is
lawfully carrying on business in her own
name. The Connecticut act Of 1872
makes provision that such married
woman may be sued upon a contract
made upon her personal credit, and also
that no action upon such contract shall
be maintained against the husband Of
such married woman. And this is the
law in each of the States mentioned.
The husband in such case is not liable.

This unmitigated demagogue and mercen-
ary adyenturer, after being driven from
Europe as a dangerous disturber of the peace,
distrusted by all parties there and hated
even by his associates, came to this country
and commenced double career of crusader
against God and religion and traitor to the
laws and peace of his adopted country.
Here the same results followed that charac-
terized him in Europe--he was soon despis-
cd and eXecrated by his associates. Attaining
high place at the hands of the Republican
party, he betrayed it as soon as he found
himself despised by it, He Joined the Lib
erals, but true to his instincts he betrayed
them before he got out of the chair of the
presidency of their National convention.
After that, finding no further occupation in
this country, he returned to Europe, where
he so far succeeded in impressing the Roth
childs and ether bankers and heavy holders
of American bonds with his importance and
influence as politician in the United
States, that they hired him to return and
make speeches in favor of further sudden
and severe contraction Of the currency, with
out regard to the interests of the people here
but in great furtherance of the interests OF
European bondholders and money lenders
In speech recently made at Cincinnati the
God defying rascal announced that he and
his followers were not committed as to who
or what party they would support at the next
Presidential election. The plain interpreta-
ton of this declaration is that he and his
followers (if he has any are in the market
for sale to the highest bidder, 1t is of little
consequence who becomes the purchaser
but for decency's sake we do hope he
will not be guilty of the meanest of all acts
and come into the Democratic party to dis
grace it by his presence. lie is scoundre
and knave.
The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1875-10-01

The city press, in the interest of brokers
and shavers, declare than not to contract the
currency is repudation. That philosophy
is perhaps neither convincing or logical and
very possibly it would be better not to make
people too familiar with the crime, as they
delight to denominate it. According to these
blind teachers the money gamblers may
cheat the people till doomsday and there is
no moral offence in it, but if thepeople cheat
them in order to square the account it is Il
crime. But we do not propose to discuss
ethics just now.
Reputation will not come while the peO-
pie can pay. But if contraction is forced to
the extent of so completely stripping them
hat they can not pay, who then will call it
a crime in them not to do it? People will
not starve themselves to raise money to pay
interests on bonds the principal of which has
already been paid two or three times, and
there is no class who depend more upon the
retention of the good will of the people than
bondhOlders. BE gentle

Libels upOn Judge PershinF.

1t would require sheet as large as an or
dinary bed quilt to correct all the erroneous
statements of the Republican papers in re-
gard to Judge Pershing's votes in the Legis-
lature. But we may here state that it is not
true that he voted against the soldiers being
permitted to vote in the field, and it is not
true that he voted against the bill to prevent
the payment of laborers in store orders, 1t
is not true that he voted for the calamity
act" restricting damages for railroad acci-
dents to $4,000 for injury and $4,000 for
death, and it is not true that he voted for
the repeal of the tonnage tax. He is also
charged with voting for and against sundry
proposed enactments when he was not a
member of the Legislature at all. 1t would
take man not less than ten years of steady
voting to vote for or against all the measures
that are now attempted to be saddled upon
him.
1t is to be noted that all the time during
which Judge Pershing was member the
Republicans had the Governor and major
ity in either one or both branches of the
Legislature, and that that party is RESPONSE
BILE for what was done during that period.
