Law for Farmers Cattle in the Highway
Mr. H. g. Haigh, LII. B, Of Detroit,
gives resume OF the laws on the above
subject, in the American Agriculturist for
June, from which we extract the follow
ing:
1t is a general doctrine of law in this
country that the land in the highway be
longs TO the owners of land lying along
each side. With few exceptions the
American farm extends to the middle of
the road, and the public has only the
right TO pass and repass there in an order
ly manner, and the right to keep the way
in repair Every other use of the high
way which does not interfere with this
public right, belongs to the farmer own
ing the adjacent land. He owns the soil.
grass, trees, stones, and gravel. ard
everything else upon the surface or under
il, and may use them all in any way that
does not affect the public right Of passage );
and the law will protect his ownership in
them lust as much as though they were
inside his fence. No other person has anv
more right to pasture his stock there than
in inclosed lands; nor can he hitch his
horse to a tree there without being liable
for the trespass, especially if the horse
should gnaW the tree or do other damage
he can, in fact, only pass orderly along
AS to road fences, the laws do not, with
the possible exception of those of New
York above noted, impose any obligation =;
and the farmer may, if he chooses, re
move such fences, without impairing his
right OF action against the owners of any
domestic animals that enter and do dam
age by that means. 49,.
If a person lets his cattle go in the high
way, he is liable for the trespass they
commit by simply being there unlawfully
for the grass they consume, for the injury
they occasion to the sod or by barking
the trees, and for any other damage they
may do If while there they hook, or
kick, or bite any person lawfully using
the way, he would be liable for the injury
... A man once turned his horse into
public place where children were play
ing, one of whom began switching the
horse, which turned and kicked and killed
the child He was convicted of man
slaughter. ...
Notwithstanding the fact that the farm
er OWES the land Of the road, he cannot
use it himself for any purpose which at
all interteres with the public rights there
He can not put his wood piles, wagons,
or pig pens there; and if he does, and the
traveller runs into them in the night and
is injured, he would not only be liable for
the private damages sustained Linsley
vs. Bushnell, Is Conn. 225) but he may
be indicted for obstructing public way.
The wash used for fruit trees at the
government gardens at Washington is
prepared as follows: Put half bushel
of lime and four pounds of powdered sui
phur in tight barrel, slack the lime with
hot water the mouth Of the barrel being
covered with cloth; this is reduced to
the consistency of ordinary whitewash;
add at the time of the application hall
an ounce of carbolic acid to each gallon

Pistol Ball lin the Head

Last evening German named William
Harmon was brought to the hospital in this
city from Westport for treatment. He was
fooling with a cheap pistol when the same
was accidentally discharged, the ball entering
the head at about the center of the forehead.
Last evening he was suffering considerable
pain, but whether the ball, which had not
been extracted, reached the brain had not
been determined. The indications, however,
were that it had not, as he appeared to be
perfectly rational and was walking around
his room. 1t is reported that the man in
tended to commit suicide and so told the at
tending physician at the hospital. His fore
head was badly burned with powder and an
ugly wound was made by the shot.

feeling of deep sorrow at the loss of
Professor Barber psrvaded the meeting and
informal remarks were made in heartfelt Gu
logy of the deceased. The loss sustained had
been no common loss. Few were so highly
esteemed by all while deceased held high
rank in the musical fraternity of the city and
was man of kindly heart and noble oharac-
ter. The feeling of the meeting was voiced
in the following resolutions, which were
adopted:
''The death of our fellow citizen and friend
Edward b. Barber having filled our hearts
with sorrow, we, members of the musical
profession of which he was SO noble repre-
| sentative, and personal friends, have gath
cred to express our grief and to pay tribute
to his memory. The eminencs which he at
tanned in his life st 1y, the powerful infiu-
| ences for good which he exerted over the
musical culture of our community the uni
form kindness of his heart; the generous
assistance which he SO freely gave to others,
particularly to young musicians; the honor
able, cordial and SYM pathetic nature of all his
dealings with US and the world at large, and
the unselfish devotion which he manifested
| toward the advancement of the arts and the
good of his fellow men are characteristics
which distinguish him in our memory ana
deserve public expression. Deeply deplor
ing the loss which his death brings to each
one of us. we extend our tenderest sympa-
thies to his family in their great affection"
The musicians of the city and the pupils
of Prof E B. Barber are requested to meet
at the house of Prof. Wehner, 544 Chapel
street. at $3.50 this afternoon to attend the
funeral services of Prof. Barber in a body.
The services take place at the late residence

The mate of the ship Northern Light was

The vessel had been towed into New London

in irons, one of whom was Francis Murrin.

! found to have sheath knife. He refused to
| give it up. Just at that moment the crew
made rush for the quarter deck. The cap

vers and ordered the mutineers back at the
peril of their lives. During the disturbance
Mate Knowles attempted to put the hand
cuffs upon Murrin, and while thus engaged
