A Curious Law.

Extreme explicitness would seem to be required when trafficking with French men. In 1870 lady purchased two hundred pounds worth of jewelry in Paris, the jeweler giving her a written promise to exchange the articles if not approved. She wore them for half a dozen years, and then intimated to the astonished man her desire to change them for others of newer style. He naturally demurred, arguing, as his ad- vocate urged before the civil tribunal, that it was unreasonable that he should be called upon to accept at the price originally paid for them, trinkets that had been used constantly for six years.
 The court, nevertheless, decided that the agreement did not define the period during which the exchange might be made, and he must do his customers bidding. This might be law; equity it certainly was not. As we write, a case of a very similar kind has just been de- cided in London against MT. Streeter, the well-known jeweler, who, having promised to take back diamond ring if not approved of, was obliged to do so, though his customer had retained it for years. ...t-s..l s,4

Snake In his Eye.

The horse with snake in his eye was in town last week in Penn Yan, the Ec- press says. The reptile is comfortably located in the watery humor of the left eye, is three feet in length, perfectly formed, of white color, and about the size of an ordinary alarming needle. It is plainly visible, and is constantly on the move, wriggling and twisting in every direction. Its. presence does not seem 10 annoy the horse in the least, and has evidently created no inflammation in or about the eye. It has, however, changed the color of the eye-ball, it being of 8 lighter shade than that of the right eye, and has affected the sight somewhat. The snake was discovered about two months since, when it was somewhat smaller than it is now. How it came in the horses eye IS @ question which pug zles scientist. Ehe horse is owned by 8 gentleman residing in Clyde, and will prove to be very valuable animal.

A Royal White Elephant.

,
 The Times of India says: The oldest of the white elephants, which was born in 1770, died in it's temple of Bangkok in November last. Every one knows that this famous white elephant, before which whole people bow the knee, is the em- blem of the people of Siam. It is hon. ored with the most beautiful presents, for the Indians, full of the idea of meta morphosis, still believe that 30 majestic an animal could be animated by only the spirit of god or of an emperor. Each white elephant possesses it's palace, a vessel of gold, and harness resplendent with jewels. Several mandarins are at- tached to it's service, and feed it with cakes and sugar cane. The King of Siam IS the only parsonage before whom 1t bows the knee, and similar saluta- tion is rendered 1t by the monarch. The deceased idol was accorded magnificent funeral. A hundred Buddhist priests othciated at the ceremony. The three surviving white elephants, preceded by trumpets, and followed by an immense concourse of people, accompanied the funeral to the bank of the Menam, where the King and his noble lords received the remalns, which were transported to the opposite bank for burial. A process sion of thirty vessels figured in that curious ceremony. All the floating houses, arranged in double file on the Menam to the number of 6O,OOO, were adorned with flags and symbolical attri- butes. ft.. -si'. - n

D.. r..+-t Adulterating Milk.

A New York city paper in speaking ot the milk deliberations, says: While pure milk is heavier than water. skinned milk is heavier still. So milk men take out twenty or thirty per cent. of the pure milk and fill up their cans with skinned milk and water, and the mixture comes up to the standard of 100 by the lactometer. As the skinned milk costs them very little, the dishonest dealers are enabled to sell at five and six cents quart where dealers in pure milk cannot afford to sell at less than eight cents. Many of the best hotels and restaurants, as we'll as the smallest vendors, are selling this fraudulent mixture. We had large number of samples of milk bought in different parts of the city and tested in cream ometers. About one-haf of them proved to De aduIterated with slammed mlIk and water, in proportions ranging from three to ninety per cent. The public attention thus attracted to the matter brought about the enactment of laws by both the New York and New Jersey Legislatures last. winter to provide a remedy. Those who bring skinned milk to New York, where large quantities are used in the making of schmierkase, or pot cheese, are now required to have their cans labelled with the words "skim milk" in large letters, under penalty of fine or imprisonment. If this law is properly enforced, the terrible death tables of this city ought to show a decrease in the waste of babies.

A Case of Pardoning,

The Governor of Iowa pardoRed a man who had been sentenced to State prison for ten years, on the conditions that he should, during the remainder of the term, abstain from the use of intoxicating liquors as beverage that he should exert himself for the support of his mother and sister and that he should not be convicted during the term of the sentence of any violation of the criminal law. The act of pardon provided that, as to the first and second of the condi- tions, the Governor was to be judge, and that, in the event of the violation of either, he should have the right to re- mand the prisoner to custody for the re- nainder of the, term of tho sentence. The prisoner accepted the conditions and WAS released. Subsequently he fell into drunkenness, and the Governor ordered his return to State prison. The question as to the validity of this proceeding came before the Supreme Court of Iowa, and 1t was held by the Court that the Gov ernor had the right to grant condition- al pardon, and upon the failure of the party to fulfil the conditions specified, to replace him in the position in which he would have been but for the pardon,

The Wisconsin Panic.

It is now known that there was nc real foundation for the panic which drove hundreds of settlers from their homes in the forests of Wisconsin. though the origin5of the panic vas peculiar. The Chippewas, it seems, are fascinated by a new dance recently imported from the Cheyenne country and are, deyoting their time to learning it. to the neglect of hunting and fishing, which goes to show that the Indian nature, in some respects, is not dissimiati from the white The constant repetition of this dance aroused the fears of the timid Swedish settlers, apd they hastily abandoned their cabins.

stephen Girard's Estate.

The Philadelphia Record says :- Nephews and nieces and heirs of Steph- en Girard filed bill in equity in Oom- mon Court. No. 3, in which they claim that the Board of City Trusts are not ad- ministering the great philanthropist's will to the strict letter. They claim that in his will Girard gave express djrec. tions for the construction of Girarfl Col lege, and set apart fund for it's main tenance. The Board of City Trusts, they say, ln violation of these directions, are erecting buildings, on, the college grounds, the cost of which is being taken out of the income derived from the estate within the city limits!' By the will, they aver, it was Girard's intention that the college should be maintained entirely out of the proceeds and income of that part of the estate lying outside, ot Philadelphia, and that the income with in the city was not to be devoted to thia purpose until other sources should prove insufficient to maintain the college as established, and that the devise of the real estate within the city contained within the will was impossiblerto be car ried out, and that it's meaning is uncer- tain and, therefore, 1t is,voids In view of this the plaintiffs, as his he1rs, claim that they are entitled to the ,accumula- ted income of all the real estate within the city limits. Besides the Board oi City Trusts, the city is joined as al de- fendant, and in their prayer they ask for an injunction to restrain the .expen. allure of any part of5the income on city property, and for decree of surrender to them of all the property built upon and improved by the use of thie income. Six of the heirs are French, and reside in Paris.
