The Married Flirt.

Some one says cit is between the ages
of thirty and forty that women are most
inclined to coquetry, since younger they
please without effort" which perhaps
accounts for the fact that the married
futis usually woman who has passed
her first youth, whose husband has
become more or less indifferent, who
has begun to doubt her power, and
therefore puts it to the test at the first
opportunity, no matter at what expense.
whether she cuts the ground from under
the feet of another, or whether she
makes enemies OF her single friends of
her own sex. She is not likely to spare
any one; it is too great pleasure to
show the lockers on at Venice, that age
has not withered her infinite variety.
that marriage has not annulled her
charms, to be lightly abandoned. Bsin.

which If pursued by spinster would
entitle her to the credit of throwing
herself at mans head, SO to speak; the
behavior which would be bold and nm.
womanly in the one is tolerated and
winked at by the usages of society in
the other. A young gi,l may not go to-
the opera with her lover without the
Intervention of third person; but the
married 1irt may go where fancy
dictates with anybody's lover, and the
prophecies are not disturbed. OF course
this had its origin in the belief that the
married woman is SO secure in her love
for her husband that she is above suspi.
cion, and so it happens that she is at
liberty to follow her own sweet will, do
all the mischief she can, and retire
behind the @gis of the matron if anv
one finds fault. She does not remember,
perhaps, that the men who hirt with her
neither respect nor admire, though thew
understand "her tricks and her ways;
That 1t is not so much her personally
which attracts as the fact that thew are
not expected to propose at the end of
the season; that they can enjoy the
mimic warfare without the surrender:
that they can inspire admiration in their

somebody else, and yet evade domestic
cares. We do not believe that because

large premiums in full. Let the meal

association, put forth renewed efforts
toward making our fairs more than ev-

appropriation has been worthily be-
slowed.

The Tornado Case.
The following is a synopsis Of the
decision recently rendered in the
case of Jno. Spensley VS. Lancashire
Insurance Company:

A house belonging to the plaintiff was destroy
ed by tornado, May %, 1875 said house being at
the time covered by policy of insurance issued
by the defendant to the plaintiff, indemnifying
him against all loss or damage by fire " to the
property described, and expressly agreeing in
the written portion of the policy: 3" that this pol
icy Is liable for any loss or damage caused by
lightning TO the property insured, not exceeding
the sum insured nor the interest of the assured
and subject i'll all other respects TO the terms and
and conditions herein mentioned and referred
to- Due notice and proofs of loss of % light
ming " were made and served as required by the
policy. The defendant denied all liability on
the ground that lightning was not agency in
the destruction of the building insured. After
the examination of expert witnesses, motion of
non-suit was granted in the court below, and
from the judgment entered thereon this appeal
Is brought. Upon the testimony of experts to
the effect that the house destroyed by the
one agency wind, the court granted non-suit,
Justice Cassidy says 1T certainly cannot be the
province of the court in an action at law triable
by jury to determine abstruse and occult scen-
titic facts, even when enlightened by the wisdom
of learned experts, especially where their opin-
ions are in conflict. We have no disposition to
disparage that class of testimony for it sfrequent
ly very highly instructive especially when con-
fined to the admitted facts of a given case, but
its province is to aid those who are required to
determine the facts, and in such case they are
TO be determined by the jury, whether the wind
theory OF the defendants experts or the electric
theory of Prot. Tice is correct not may have
an important bearing upon the weight of the
evidence, circumstances and differences tending
70 prove or ulsproVe the presence OF dlsruptlve
discharges of electricity an agency in the des-
truction of the plaintiff s house. Assuming that
two forces were present-wind and electricity
either of which was sufficiently powerful 70 be
an agency in the destruction of the building
yet il would not be for the court to say that such
destruction was wrought wholly by the one to
the entire exclusion of the other The question
for the jury is, whether lightning an efficient
agency in such destruction, and the question for
the court is, whether, within the rules stated
there is any evidence tending TO prove that light
ming was Such an agency. The Ia alOrltN OF the
court being of the opinion that there is such ev-
idence, the judgment of the Circuit Court is re-
versed, and the cause is remanded for a new
trial.
