ing her to The New Century, This
young woman had been sent ON a
visit TO some friends Of her family
living about twenty miles from
town, and while there quarreled
one day with her hostess. Without
more ado she ordered her horse to
be saddled, and, attended only by u
young servant boy started to ride
to London. She reached Black
heath in salty, and there, of course,
she lost her way. But after u
while, seeing a horseman at some
distance, she cantered boldly up to
him ard asked him to direct her.
He was a good looking man, with
a fine manner and rode--the incon-
testable sign Of a gentleman then
a remarkably handsome horse. He
was very, very courteous, not only
showing the road, but. escorting her
for several miles, chatting very
pleasantly by the way, till the houses
of London were in view, When
he was about to leave her he said;

The Cincinnati Commercial of
Saturday last has the following Su-
preme Court decision in an agree
ment changing a general marine
risk to fire policy;
Alex NJ. Halliday VS.. the Eureka
Insurance Company: Before Judges
O'Oonnor, Tilden and Yaple, on a
petition in error. The plaintiff
sued the defendant on a policy of
insurance issued on the steamboat
Jennie Howell, in August, 1872.
On the 26th of July, 1873, the boat,
striking a snag near the mouth of
the Ohio river, below Shawneetown,
sunk and became a total loss. 1t
appeared that in the spring of that
year Captain Halliday, promising
to have his boat laid up, desired, as
she would not be exposed to the
marine risks, to have the policy
changed to a fire risk, the under
writers to remit, in consequence
thereof, a portion of the premium.
A verbal arrangement to this effect
was entered into. After the loss
the company claimed that they were
not liable, the boat having been lost
by one of the perils of the river.
At Special Term a verdict was re-
turned for the defendant, and judg-
ment being entered on the verdict,
this petition was filed to reverse it.
The principal error assigned is, that
the Court erred in admitting testi-
mony Of a parol agreement chang,
ing the written terms of the policy,
and the question is as to the effect
of the verbal agreement between
the parties changing a general ma
rine policy to fire risk.

New YORK Ledger.l
Tobias Smollett, the novelist.
poet, genius, and traveller, best re-
membcred, perhaps, by the average
English reader as the author of
-" Roderick Random" lost his father
at an early age, and as his mother
had been left poor, he was taken in
charge and educated by his grand
father. At the age of nineteen he
had served a term of apprentice
ship with a physician in Glasgow,
when, his grandfather having died
without making further provision
for him, he went to London, there
to strike out for himself. He car
ried with him the manuscript of a
tragedy, called the "Regicide,"
upon which he placed great reli-
ance, but he found no manager
willing to read it; SO he threw aside
his pen in disgust, and obtained a
position as surgeons mate on board
an eighty-gun ship, where he
learned much of life. He was pres
sent at the ill-fated expedition
against Carthagena where he gained
a rich experience which he after
ward incorporated into "Roderick
Random" When he again turned
his efforts into the literary channel
he was better able to battle with
opposition, and as he produced
works Of real merit he became
popular.
Smollett had grown from youth
to middle age when he concluded
once more to visit his native land.
His fame had gone before him, and
his reception by the dignitaries of
Scotland was cordial and hatter-
ing. But he had promised himself
the greatest pleasure in meeting
with his mother, whom be had not
seen since his beard began to grow.
The battle of life, and the travel
into foreign chimes, had left their
scars and their tan, and it was
thought that his mother would not
know him.
Mrs. Teller, his sister, introduced
him as a gentleman from the West
Indies, who had known Tobias when
he was there, and the better to sup
port his assumed character, Smol-
lett put on a serious look, amount
ing almost to a irown but while
his mothers eyes were riveted upon
his face-the old eyes, with the
kindly gaze that he remembered so
well-he could not refrain from
smiling. In an instant she was
upon his bosom, with her arms
around his neck.
90, my son! my SON ! have
found you at lastl Alb, she added,
as she held him off, and gazed upon
him, chad you kept the austere
looks and the gloom upon your
face, | might have missed YOU, but
the old rogpish Gmile-it betrayed
you at oncc!
