rabhiss hs susy-A Verdict &c.
Aside.


]
Az overdose Of poison acts as It's
Own anudoto. 80 an unjust verdict
awarding grossly excessive damsess
defeats itself. This truth Is well
illustrated BY the setting aside yester,
day OF the outrageous verdict recently
obtained sgsisst the Herald BY a man
named Malloy.
In publishing an account of q large
hre IN the little town Of Edgefeld
South Carolina, in October, 1881, the
Herald published a dispatch contain.
ing statement derogatory 10 zone
Malloy." Thereupon a certain James
Francis Malloy came forward to
i5sas!ty-himselt as the person iode6
nitely referred TO as lone Malloy. :"
aud then complained that the state.
ment was a libel on him. The essence
Of libel is malice. We had no
malice toward Malloy, no purpose to
lnture him, no disposition to do him
injustice. We did not know him and
had never before heard Of
him. The dispatch came to
US by telegraph from a
then trusted correspondent at that
place. 1t was received and published
as news in the regular routine Of busi>
ness. On complaint of Malloy we
found that the statements which he
alleged applied to him were erroneous
10 vindicate and do justice to him, as
we'll as to put ourselves right, we
acknowledged the error into which
we had inadvertently been led and
published a conspicuous correction.
To any reasonable being this would
have been entirely satisfactory. But
lalloy did not seek merely vindica-
ton or justice He wanted money.
and ho found jury reckless and auda-
clous enough to give him verdict for
$4,000. Had he succeeded 10 getting
only one twentieth OF that sum the
damages would have been in
excess OF any possible injury sus~
tanned by him. AS the Court
remarked yesterday in settine
AoiNO bhO NOAuiOt Ouo puOliChLlOu COM
olained Of could not seriously ipiur,
him in the estimation of the immedi
ate community in which he lived"
while no person at distance who had
not read the evidence of identity vol
unteered by Malloy himself would be
likely TO know or suspect that zone
Malloy" was James Francis Malloy.
Under these circumstances the rem
dering of a verdict awarding the
grossly extravagant damages Of 1000
was simply robbery by jury. That
such a ridiculous verdict should be
set aside was a matter Of course. The
result, however, is a cause of con.
eratulation, not merely to the Herald
but to the press generally. For if a
verdict so Asgrantly unjust we're al.
lowed to stand every respectable and
responsible newspaper in the country
would be exposed to similar raids and
liable to be outrageously mulcted by
any reckless or unscrupulous iury.

You state that you are seventeen years

your future. Ii many thousands of the
youth of the Southern country would
engage in useful pursuits Of that and

some do, the country would be in a
better condition. Always recollect
that all labor that is useful is honor.

An Indian Relic



Our young friend, Dick Gibson, re
Gently came into possession of a vail
liable relic in the shape OF discoidal
stone used in the Indian games away
back in the days of the aborigines.
The stone is handsomely chiseled out
for the rude artisans of that day, and
the variegated colors selected would
be creditable to a modern artist. The
stone was used by the Indians in a
game which required an object to be
placed in the ground some distance
away, at which the stone, disc shaped,
was rolled. 1t bears the marks Of
long service, and yet preserves the
original beauty Of the stone. 1t was
found near Clinton by a country boy,
who sold it here, and has since been
purchased by Mr.. Charles Stratton,
who is the fortunate possessor of a
most valuable collection of old relics,
which have been accumulated at the
expense Of much time and outlay.
The Boston Museum, we learn, offer.
ed $50 for this specimen.

a Collision the New England Road Ike
suits in the IBstsnt Death OF Two Men and
Injury of Others.
HARTFORD, Conn, July An ast-bound
passenger train on the New England Road
collided this evening with gravel train, a
mile east Of Plainville. The engineer es-
capped. George KDickerboker, engineer of
tn passenger train, remained at his post and
reversed the engine, and was caught in the
wreck. He was horribly crushed and in
stantly killed. His brother, the fireman,
jumped and escaped. Charles w. Church,
the express messenger, of Hartford, and
Charles Griswold, of Waterbu v, were in the
baggsgs-car. The car was smashed, and the
men thrown forty feet into the sd joiniUg
field. Griswold's body was thrown over teIe-
graph wires and he was instantly killed.
Churches injuries are probably fatal. The
passengers were badly shaken up, bus none
seriously injured. The accident was caused
by the failure of the telegraph operator at
Plainfield 10 give the conductor of the passen
ger train orders TO wait at the station for the
gravel train to pass. The operator, Charles
A. Welch, it is reported, was arrested.
