THIS bit of biography is OF renewed
interest At college Chester A. Arthur
had determined to become a lawyer. Ac-
cordngly, upon graduation, he went to
law school at Ballston Springs, and
there remained diligently studying for
several months. He then returned to
Lansingburg, where his father then re-
sided, and there studied law. In 1851
he obtained situation as principal of an

CT YCORDTAL,

From late Danish papers to hand we no.
tice that a lawsuit had been instituted by
the well-known Cherry Cordial manufac-
turer Peter T. Heering against q Hamburg
firm, for imitation of his labels. As the
case interests importers here, we give the
following regarding the same:
p. +. Heering has manufactured since
1918 his we'll krown Cherry Cordial,
which was early initiated, chiefly by Ham
burg firms, who exported large quantities
of their article to America and Asia. Heer-
ing has ip spite Of all proofs not been able
to obtain judgment against these coun-
terfeitors, but after the establishment in
1879 of a Trade Mark Convention between
Denmark and Germany, Heering regis
tered his label and bottle 10 Germany, in
consequence of which bis mandatory en-
Joys the same protection as German Trade
Marks.
Meanwhile a Hamburg firm, i. Ferdi-
nand Nagels Nachfolger, continued with
its limitations, for which Heering instituted
proceedings against it and obtained judg'
msnt according to which the Hamburg firm
was senterced to pay q fine OF M60O or gu
days Imprisonment, as also the expenses OF
the suit, and further to publish the sentence
in a Hamburg paper.
1t is of Importance that although no ex-
act likeness was found between TIE origin
al label and the imitation, the defendant
was nevertheless sentenced, as his intention
to detraud was shown. Ga the imitation
label ]. F. Nagels name was found instead
of Heering's, the blue colour was darker
than that on the original. the coat OF arms
and motto were different, but the entire
impression was that they were so essential.
ly equal, that there was a possibility OF
substitution both with regard to the label
and the bottle itself.
The Hamburg house is said to have
sold during one year $4,000 half bottles,
an activity which might have been more
satisfactorily applied in the service OF .

ness TO the State. He has been Il
most safe, prosperous and intelligent
business man, an enterprising, just,
and liberal minded citizen. These
qualities carried into public life by
an honest man cannot fail to give us
a good representative. Mr.. Camden
docs not live in the Third District
as Senator Hereford does, but no one
IL more largely interested in the way
Of Investment in our part of the
State than the Senator elect. He is
largely interested in mining proper
tyin this county and is ono of the
largest owners Of the White Sulphur
Springs in Greenbrier county. But
independent of PLACE Of residence or
ownership ofproporty, we feel as
surod that Mr.. Camden's ideas Of
representation citizenship is at least
us extensive as the boundaries of his

Congressional Appointment.

Tho census returns are complete,
and have been transmitted to Con.
gress. The whole population is So.
1886. Representative Cox has in.
troduccd an apportionment bill
which will probably pass the present
session. The ratio Of representation
will be about one representative to
10000 OF population, making the
House to consist Of 30l members. II
this bill passes, West Virginia will
be entitled to four Congressman in.
stead of three The present Legis.
laturo will have to re.district the
State, making four districts instead
Of three. This speaks well for West
Virginia. While several Of the older
and larger States lose one or two
representatives, aud many Others
barely retain their present number,
our Mountain State gains one with
fraction Of population 10 spare.
