An important decision was recently
made by the Supreme Court Of Mime
sofa regarding the liability Of owners
of teams for damages caused by teams
running away in cases where they have
been left standing in the public street
unfastened. The action arose in the
city of St. Paul. The substance Of the
decision is that if a team is left stand
ing in a public street unfastened or un-
guarded, and the team runs away and
does injury to persons or property, the
owner of the team is liable for the dam
ages caused by such runaways, and the
Court says: ''It is manifestly not sufi-
cient excuse that the horses were be
lieved to be gentle and not vicious and
had never been known to run away" "
The fact that they were left unfastened
or unguarded was proof Of negligence.

cannot hope to do Justice to this dark theme ana
will therefore discreetly draw veil over it's hor-
rors.
The summer vacation to the New-Yorker is tho
elimination Of the year. He may get no further
than Coney Island. and its duration may
be no more than beggarly two
weeks. But even SO, it means recreation
and change for at least brief period, and it may
be- Whit of the fresh country air There is little
danger that New-Yorkers will ever become cock
news in the London sense of the word; even the
man who has been born and reared within sound OF
Trinity's chimes is quite apt to know something OF
woodcraft, and to have high appreciation oil the
beauties Of nature. Gotham might, perhaps, dis
pence with its ball season without much serious
loss but it is to be hoped that its summer vacation
will become more extended aud more enjoyable
each year. IL is the annual protest which VIC make
against the artifciaity OF urban life.
The last remaining period of the Gotham year Is
that vague stretch of weeks between tho summer
vacation and the holiday season. much of which IS
now spent III the country when possible The spirit
of this season is expressed in tho words " Home,
Sweet Hsme" The annual fitting has brought its
pleasures but after it is all over the heart goes
back to homo with unquenchabe love. And
the old familiar roOf-trse welcomes tho wanderers
back again with an eloquence all its own. These
arc some of the greater ePochs of the Gotham year.
which, though marked in no calendar or almanac,
have become to most of Us like unto n law of the
Medes aud rersians, which altereth not.
New-York tribune., 1885-01-18
LILLE GOTUdM CALENDAR.

While we hear much Of the civil year and the
ecclesiastical year. it is rather surprising that no
student of social science has thus far said anything
about the Gotham year. For IL is u well-knOwn
fact that the Gothamlte has year Of his own,
with its clearly y-defned epochs and seasons, which
to him arc vastly more important than the anti
ouated time divisions Of Church and State There
is for instance, the holiday season, period which
begins vaguely somewhere IN December, but which
ends abruptly on tho evening Of January l. often
with shrunken purse and swelled head
Then we come to the ball season, which Is now at
its height This is tho time when the NowYorker
dons his best bib and tucker and determines to
show his neighbor how much style he can put on
when he is 30 inclined. The great public balls which
range all the way from best to worst mark perhaps
the zenith in the social life Of the city. And vet it
can hardly be said that the average New Yorker
! enjoys them thoroughly, and however select they
| may be- they do not represent New-YOrk society at
it's best They give us glimpse of the most arti-
fetal and osentatous side OF society. and there is
general sigh of relief when the season of routs and
assemblies is over.
Lent gives the ball season its quetus. This
penitential season receives peculiar recognition
in New-York. You may not dance during
Lent but you may eat dinners IN quiet sort Of q
way il YOU do not tell it unto the Church. II ia n
strange Inconsistency which fixes upon tho season
1
of abstinence as the season for dinner parties but
so il Is. 1t is somewhat parallel with the modern
evolution of Fast Day in Massachusetts, which il
usually observed bysports, pastimcs and dinners.
Lent is also the time when the New-York maids
and matrons prepare the gowns and bonnets with
out which Easter Day would DO dull and sodden
event Altogether it is grateful season aside from
its religious aspect aud bids fair to become ncreas
ingly important as the time of social. If not of re-
ligious, recuperaton.
The Easter holiday season begins for tho New.
Yorker on Easter Day and ends on the day OF the
Coaching Club parade. 1t is tho social aftermath,
whom, so to speak, society has its last fling ere
il separates for the summer vacation. 1t Is espe-
cially the season of weddings, and in it the great
annual European Hogira begins. Florists aud ca
terers arc busy and much II not all of the enforced
penitence of Lent is put aside until more conven-
lent season. Pater familas consuts with mater
familias the great question of ways and means and
the all-absorbing problem Of where to go for the
summer occupies many sleepless night. Moving
day is tragic all by itself. often extending
over several weeks which many New-Yorkers. for
their sins probably. ere doomed to endure. We

SIGNIFICANT PROJECTS.

Mr.. Theodore Thomas has q project on foot
which will make the next musical season in this city
one OF exceedingly great activity and cause deal OF
comment in musical circles. The details OF his plan have
not yet been made public but this much is certain tnat
lie has secured the refusal OF the Academy OF Music for
one day and evening each week from next Novem-
Der till the following May. 1t is said by
those who are generally advised about
musical undertakings that Mr. Thomas proposes within
this period give twentyfour symphony concerts fol-
lowing in n manner the methods Of the Boston SYM
phony Concerts which, under tho selfsacrhcng man
agement OF Mr.. Higginson and the capable
musical direction OF Mr.. Henschel and
Herr Gericke have been made so successful
that the New England capital dreams of soon riyang

of the hat factories with dynamite, and 1t Is
said that this was not the first attempt at law
lessness. The position of the South Norwalk
strikers has been indefensible from the hrst
but so long as they did not choose to work at
prices offered that was their own affair. The
moment, however, at which they resorted to
violence against their former employers and
the new workmen, they interfered with the
personal rights of others to an extent which Is
simply outrageous. South Norwalx boasts
only three constables. who are not on duty at
night. If the residents of the town wish 1t TO
retain its reputation as good place for manu-
facturers to establish themselves they ~Ould do
well to protect the capital now invested there,
even if they have to double the strength OF the
constabulary.

RlHALIE IND LIS RNRES.

The Spectator rcbukcs the English press for
the abiect sycophancy with which it iiatters
the royal household. London journalists, it
seems, are not courticrs either by training or
natural endowment. When the bctrothal.
marriage or death of royal parsonage calls
for expressions of loyalty. they seldom fail
to make guys of themselves by the elusive
ness of their language. The betrothal of
Princess Beatrice to Prince Henry OF Battcn-
berg gave occasion for newspaper compliments
of this kind, and the congratulations were so
labored and the culogics fulsome as to be
grotesque. The Queen will lose by the mar
riage of the Princess the companion of her
declining years, and is entitled to the sympathy
of her subjects. But it Is absurd to magnify
the importance of this alliance with petty
German Count and TO discuss ii in language OF
pompous ceremonial as if it were IA great affair
Of State.
II is only fair to add that The Spectator itself
deals with ceremonials OF this sort IN SELF
respecting spirit, and is decorous and sensible
wthal. 1t is an organ of progressive Radical
ism, with an ngrained conviction that Rcpubli-
canism will be, it says. the political faith of
all English speaking men, as 1t is already their
political practice But it has no sympathy
with the grudging spifit which higglcs about
the cost of maintaining the monarchy in decent
STYLE and is continually growing over the
allowances to the sons aud daughters of the
royal household. So long as royalty is wor-
shipped as n political and National idol. it
should not be dressed in shabby robes. "Let
us be done with monarchy" says this sincere
and outspoken journal, "or let us pay for it
we will not say like gentlemen, but like men of
sense" Candor such as this is Ineligible.
Adulaton is az unreasonable as it is ignoble.
