A Curious Case.

A peculiar case has been decided by
the courts. A man and wife induced a
conductor on railroad to pass them
free by representing that they had no
money to pay their fare. On the jour
ney the husband was killed by a COLI
sion, and the wife entered suit for the
recovery of damages. 1t was decided
that one who knowingly induces con-
ductor to violate rule of the company
Is not uuder the protection of the law,
as thereby he combined with the COZ
ductor to defraud the company. 1t was
further held that It was material, since
in her presence, the husband, acting as
her agent in procuring ber passage, to
show that the wife was informed of the
rules of the company aud made the
false representation that they had NO
money to pay :heir fare Even if she
did not know of the fraudulent act of
her hus band, she could not recover, be-
cause she could net avail herself of any
fraud on his part and hold property and
acquire rights thereby.

To the North Pole.

Captain Il. W Hawgate, of the
United States Signal Service, has plan
By which it is believed the North Pole
may be reached His plan is to estab-
lish colony at the point furthest North
attainable, from which expeditions may
be fitted and sent out to find the pole
The communication between the ex
treme northern colony and ship naviga-
ton shall be kept open by intermediate
colonies. The plan receives endorse
ment of scientific men, and all others
who feel like knowing how the currents
o: water and wind about the pole affect
the ocean, and storms.
There is no telling what great results
may spring out of an acquaintance with
the region of the North Pole.

Wooiug as a Fine Art,

To make love is one of the arts
that al fall fall heir to by nature.
Men and women employ the avenues
that nature gave them through which
to manifest their love. They WOO
each other, and they scarcely know
how. The hidden law that governs
the case of all wooing is not well un-
derstood; and still, with all the ig-
norance as to the direct manner OF
employing the law, or directing ii
where desirable, men and women get
ON quite well in the way of wooing.
They have always been a success in
that line, and doubtless will continue
to be successful to the end of time.
As to whether they will be able to
reduce "Wooing to Fine Art, to be
subject to a system of rules with
which one may become acquainted,
and use, or not use at pleasure, is a
question that time will settle.
However, let time work such
changes as it may, there is lady by
the name of Mrs. Mary Calhoun, who
proposes to take time-honored Father
r ime by the foreloek, and shake the
old gentleman up to a arealizing sense
of the fact that there is such thing

Be Killed or Have an Ear Cut Off

The case of Bob Watkins VS.. the
State was reversed anG remanded By
the Supreme Court yesterday, on the
ground of the iucompeteucy of juror
who had expressed an opinion before
bearing the testimony, and on the fur
ther ground that the indictment was
defective. Watkins became involved
in fight with a negro in Humphreys
county, got the negro down and asked
him whether he would prefer to be
killed or have an ear cut off. The ne
gro said, as be felt both ears: (" [ be-
lieb I'd rather have an ear clipped of. -
(which ear z" Watkins asked. The
negro again felt both ears, and said :
"Well, if has to lose a car anyhow,
I'd rather part wild de le;' ear" aud at
that moment Watkins cut it off with
the knife he had threatingly held above
the negrO's head. Watkins will be
taken to WaveIiy for a new trial

The Exemption Law.

Tie Legislature is considering bill
now that will prevent men from signing
away the benefits that we're intended tC
be derived by families from the $500
exemption law.
Governor Har,ranft in his late mes
sage spoke of the law as it is niscai rIed
and bis remarks have led to the pro.
posed bill, which will be published
when passed. The Governor said:
The Exemption law was PASSED fol-
the protection of the wife and family oi
the poor man, against his misfortune OF
folly. If he can waive it, it is sIul-
pie nullify, and a law that Is only a
mockrry to those it pretends to protect
had better be removed from the statute
book or amended suggest that a
wsIrer Of the law be made impossible. "

Consumption I'm Hogs,

A correspondent of the Prairie Far
mer writes as follows from Clampai IN
county, H.; " Since the coming of the
four or FIVE snow storms of the last and
this month half the hogs in the county
have been coughing more or less, and
the cholera takes on the form Of quick
consumption. of which, in the majority
of cases, hogs die in few days. AS
sn;uing the disease to be consumption,
where cure is possible, the best medi-
cines will be found to be new milk,
fresh raw beet, or horse flesh, fed as a
supplement- to the regulated corn diet,
shelter and dry bedding, and two grains
of quinlne given daily, thus parodyiDg
in the case of swine sick Of consump-
tion the treatment and most successful
ways and means adopted for the cure
of consumptive patients-cod Ever oil,
raw beef, and warm blood"

The Bill Signed President Grant
a Great Soldier and q Great
Statesman,

Last Monday President Grant
signed the bill, that was published in
these columns, that provides for the
settlement of the dispute over the
electoral vote in several of the South
ern States.
The dispute was quite a serious
one. 1t involved the States immedi
ately interested In the wrangle, and
ii involved the whole country; and
then. too, it involved the most des
spotic power.
1st- 1t involved the States, or the
people of the States, who got into
the wrangle over their own election.
End 1t involved the whole people,
because the people in the States in
the wrangle. did not settle their dis
pute at home, but came to Congress
with it.
3rd 1t involved despotic princi-
pie, for it was argued that one man
had the settlement OF all the disputes
IN question. The President of the
Senate, it was argued, had the des-
potic power to accept or reject cleo
toral votes, as his will or judgment
dictated
The bill makes a precedent by
which future troubles of the same
kind may be met, if they ever arise,
which may not again occur in many
generations
President Grant has been a Won
derful instrument in the hands of
destiny, TO bring to a conclusion great
and fundamental questions. He
stands as the first soldier of the day
in bringing to a conclusion a war
against human freedom. and he is put
by this last great act-the signing OF
the bill in question-before the world
as a great statesman, who under
stanls the principles on which the
Republic is founded. How easy
would it have been for him TO have
cast discord throughout the country,
by delivering message against the
bill, and in favor of the one man
power, the despotic power claimed
for the President OF the Senate.
Great soldiers in the past have
often settled questions in their own
favor. But President Grant is not
only great soldier, he is a great
statesman, and by his last act he VIII
be SO recorded.

Calhoun does not propose to simply
awaken old Time and announce to
him that wooihg may be reduced to a
fine art, but she proposes to spread
the announcement to the whole world,
and cause people of this time to look
at her and hear what she has to say.
She proposes lecturing on the sub
ject of Wooing as Fine Art be-
ginning in the Academy of Music in
Philadelphia, some time next month.
Among those who recommend Mrs.
Calhoun are Henry C. Cary, Morton
McMichael, James a. Claghorn, Ben
iamin Harris Brewster, Richard Vaux
and other well known gentlemen.
There must be something about the
system as explained by the lady that
has merit in it, or these elderly citi-
zens of the Quaker City would not
have patience to give it attention.
Too late, gentlemen, too late, for men
of your years. Perhaps they simply
desire to endorse it for the younger
men.

Bull-Dozed,

Ons Of the greatest mistakes ever
proclaimed on the floor of the United
States Senate, was that Of Senator
MOrton's, when be declared that the
people Of this country were Bull duzed
into plan to settle the dispute over
the electoral vote. If the Senator be-
i:eved what be said, be has less judg-
ment than the country gave him credit
with having. HIs''mistaken view as to
the real cause of the people favoriug a
pesceable settlement of the dispute,
and the mean imputation of cowardice
buried at them for their desire to settle
the controversy in accordance with the
spirit of the Institutions of the country,
have put him st heavy discount.
Oliver z. Morton to-day is not the
man in the minds of the party that
honored him by giving him honored
place, that he was six weeks ago.
The party know that he told a
falsehood when he declared that they
were intimidated, bull-dozed, into fav-
oring the bill that has become law, and
under which the dispute will be settled,
and the dangerous doctrine that one
man alone-the President of the Sem
ste--has the power of deciding the
momentous question of who shall pre-
side over the Republic, when the ques-
tion of dispute as to the Presidency is
az earnest dispute in a number of
States. To declare that one man has
such powers in the Republic is a mon
strous political heresy, aud bad enough
without adding to it the insult that If
the people do not accept the beresy,
they are bull-dozed. To charge the
country with cowardice comes with a
bad grace from a man who is hobbling
about on two sticks and would make
that an excuse always to keep out OF
harms wsy. The mass Of the Repub-
lican party send the charge of coward
ice back into the mouth of the Senator
from whence ii came with scorn.

Bold Attempt at Robbery.

The house of John Gable, in Cole
rain township, Lancaster county, was
broken into un Saturday night. the 10Th
inst, with the inteatiol Of robbery.
but the burglars were alarmed and fed
before they accomplished their pur pose.
Mr.. and Mrs. Gable are aged people,
(,he former over 80 years Of age,) and
live alone on their farm, their son in
law, David Burnite, who farms the
place, occupying q house about one
fourth of a mile distant The par,icu-
lars, as given by the aged couple, says
the Oxford Press, are that about twslve
o'clock at night, Mrs. Gatle hearing a
noise, arose from her bed and struck a
light. Then hearing a slight knock at
the door, asked who wa. there. The
response came in the form Of an inqui-
ry,"Can We sleep in the barn to- night ~
On consulting her husband Mrs. table
informed the outside party that they
could do so prosided they had no
matches about them. Mrs. Gable then
went back to her he'd room, situated on
the first floor of the house, and all was
quiet until about two o'clock, when they
were aroused BY crash from the break
/ ing in of the lower sash of the window
close beside the bed, followed by the
sudden entrance of the form of man
across the bed, who in loud tones sew
eral times demanded their money. Mrs.
Gable, with commendsble presence Of
mind took hold of the intruder and told
Mr.. Gable to get the gun. This had the
effect Of causing the burglar to beat a
hasty retreat through the window, when
the old folks proceeded TO an upper
story window aud called uAtii they sue
ceeded in arousing Mr.. Burnite, who
came to their relief. But the robbers
had made their escape. On going to
the barn next morning Mr. Burnite
found two of the horses bridled ready
for the fight of .he robbers, it is sup
posed had they succeeded in their de-
signs. The scoundreIs had tied bags
around their feet to prevent their foot
falls from being heard. They had
broken In the window with a heavy
piece of wood.
On the previous Monday evening two
negroes called at Mr.. Cables and OBJ
tslne1 something to eat, whose ques
tons aud conversation at tina; time led
Mr.. and '.rs Gable to suppose that
they arc the parties who thus boldly
attempted to rob them, as the old lady
IS certain from the odor Of the burglar
wLe came in such close contact with her
,hs. be was black man. They de-
scribe these men as follows One a jet
black man, hair cropped very close,
wore drab coat, would weigh about
$50 pounds and was pleasant aud cor
rect talker The other was of large
size, about six feet in height, wore a
slouch hat and light ovealls, much torn.
A reward of SIC will be paid for the
arrest and conviction of the burglars.
