THE case Of Henry Parish as. the

Dodgeville last week, and after last
ing two days was given the jury
who returned n verdict in favor OF
plaintiff for $1,000 damages This
suit was brought about by an acci-
dent three years ago, resulting in
the killing of two sons of Mr.. Par
ish, while driving load of drybone
through Eden township, and which,
au account of the poor condition of
the road, tipped over with the un-
fortunate lads under. A small com.
pensation for the lives Of two in

tender years should be under the pa.

there exists wide difference of
opinion as to the verdict. The
AMOUNT will not prove heavy pull

tupately, although the taxpayers are
much dissatisfied, similar to what
any person is when the result OF
anything affects his pocket.

THE FIRST jury case taken up was
the slander suit Of James Evans VS..
Robert Vial, which excited, 4 wide
spread interest on account of the
standing Of the parties, Mr.. Evans
being, and having been for many
years, regular minister in good
standing Of the M. +. church, while
Mr.. Vial is an old ard respected cit
izen Of Linden and also q local
preacher in the i NJ. church. The
preponderance Of testimony seemed
to establish that the slanderous
words allcdged in the complaint, or
their equivalent, had been uttered
by the defendant, but the jury-evi-
dently laying much stress on the
fact that Mr.. Evans had lost neither
his standing nor position as a minis
ter by reason thereof, and regarding
the whole matter as rather in the
nature Of a personal quarrel between
the parties-after a short delibera-
ton. returned into court with a YER
diet for the defendant. The case
was conducted by Messrs. Feathers
(of Winans g. Feathers, Janesville,)
Reese q Carter, for the plaintiff, and
by Messrs. Macarthur, Wilson and
Cothren for the defense. Mr.
