verdict Against the p, w. &B.

MEDIA, Pa June 23.-An interest
ing tuit for damages against the Phila-
dlephia, Wilmington and Baltimore
Railroad Company was concluded to-
day in the Delaware County Court Of
Common Pleas. In December last Pen.
mock Powell, doing business in Phila-
delphia, but residing at Clifton, on the
Media brar Oh, lost his quarterly COM
mutation ticket between Philadelphia
and Clifton. He went to the office OF
the Company at once and reported his
loss and asked to have the tickes re-
newed.
The clerk in charge at the General
Ticket Agents office, however, told MI.
Powell that he would have to purchase
q new ticket, aud at the end of the
month, II The lost ticket WAS not used
by any one, his money would be re-
funded him. Mr.. Powell said he would
see about 1t and went away. The same
day he found the lost ticket and began
using 1t again without notify ing the
company that he had found it.
He rode upon it two days, and on the
third 1t was taken from him by the
conductor, who, although well aU-
Quainted with Mr.. Powell, said he
wou Id have to obey his orders, which
we're to lift the ticket no matter in
whose hands 1t was found. Fare was
also demanded after the ticket was
taken from its owner, and upon refusal
to pay it Mr.. Powell was elected from
the train. The representatives of the
railroad claim that the plaintiff had or.
dered them to have the ticket taken up.
Or the other hand, Powell testified that
he gave no such order. The jury, after
being out nearly twenty -four hours, re-
turned a verdict for the plaintiff in the
SUN OF 81 900.

Funeral Extravaganza.

The Freeman 8 Journal in speaking
of the extravagance that is frequently
INDUCED in at funerals says:
The "Gates Affair."" the "Broken Phi.
lar" the "Cross and Crown" The
"Sheaf of Wheat, "And another hideous
invention OF the funeral florist, the
"Vacant Chair. "were all there. Enough
money had been spent in these useless
and osten tatious things to keep the
deGd mau's family for several mouths.
His coffin was piled high with "horal
enblems," and twenty-five carriages
waited around the corner to join the
regulation six which were perm itted to
stand before the church door. This was
a pleasing way of "getting ahead of the
priest" who had wisely forbidden that
more carriages than the half dozen
should attend any Of his p1rishontrs'
fuGeral. The next wees the friends of
the deceased were engaged In arranging
a collection for the procuring of sew

Tho ExpeIled PRINCES.

PARIS, June 23-The government, at
8 O'Clock this afternoon. will issue a
decree expelling the French princes
from the country. The princes will
leave France tonight. A number OF
the Royalist senators and deputies have
gone to the Chateau d'Eu to condole
with the Count Of Paris. The police
have been ordered to arrest all persons
who make noisy Loyalist demon stra-
tions in Paris or elsewhere on the occa-
sion Of the departure of the expelled
princes. Count Fouoher de Carroll,
am bassador TO the Austrian Court, hes
resigned In protest against the action OF
his government In eKpelling the French
princes.
1t is believed that M. waddineton,
French ambassador to the Court Of St.
James, will resign in consequence OF
the expulsion Of the princes. His
resignation is momentarily expected.
The Royalist press proDounces the pas :
sage of the expulsion bill the forerunner
Of the downfall Of tho Republic. The
Moderate Republican papers generally
criticise the measure as unjust The
Opportunist journals urge the Govern
ment to discard the demands of the
Irreconciliables and Radicals and they
demand q firmer republican policy.
The Count and Countess Of Paris and
their son, Prince Louis Philippe, after
receiving their friends TO morrow will
embark at Treport in. the afternoon,
One Thousand persons called Mt the
Chateau Eu and inscribed their names

pressed his thanks. The Counts mani.

t'ortune-nuntIng In England.

The degree in which girls with money
are pursued in England goes far beyond
anything known in America; yet even
in this fashion has as much influence as
wealth. Some years ago there was a very
wealthy and good-looking, American
girl in England, and it is stated on abso-
lutely trustworthy authority that for
weeks together she had on an average one
offer of marriage day. These were
mostly made at places in the country
where she was visiting, and were chiefly
those of the nobility. She very often re-
ceived proposals from aristocratic fortune
hunters whom she had not known Tor
twenty-four hours. This was aided by
no forwardness on. her part, for she was
modest and retiring beyond most of her
sex. She ended by marrying great title,
saying that she had no faith in any mans
sincerity, judging by her experience, and
that might as well secure at least title,
since there could be no other advantage
to her In a husband.

Circumstantta, Evidence.

The danger of relying too strongly on
eircumstantial evidence in murder trial
was forcibly illustrated recently in the
case of Miss Journeaux of the island of
Jersey. This lady, it will be remem-
bered, went out for a short row with q
male companion named Farne, and after
they had rowed some distance he lost his
oars overheard and leaped into the water
to regain them. He could not get back
to the boat, as the tide was running
rapidly, and Miss Journeaux soon lost
sight of him, though he managed to reach
the shore. This was on Sunday night,
and the poor girl drifted helplessly about
in the frail bark until Tuesday morning,
when she was picked up by a French
fishing vessel of st. Malo. She was kind
ly treated by the captain and crew, and
landed, after a voyage of twenty six days
on the shore of st. Georges Bay, New
foundlaDd, from whence she was sent to
st. Johns 20 wait for a vessel bound to
France. In the meanwhile Farne was
arrested for murder and imprisoned, and
was not set at liberty until telegram
arrived announcing the safety of his for
mer boating companion.
How different might have turned out II
Miss Journeaux had been lost at sea! He
might have been hung for crime which
he never committed, and all his protesta-
tions Of innocence would have been re
garded as the wild pleadings of u man
who desired t0escape the just penalty OF
his misdeeds. No power on earth could
probably have'saved him, and he would
have gone down to posterity with the
brand of Cain upon his brow. Only the
interposition of Divine Providence seems
to have saved his neck from the halter.
The opponents of capital punishment
will find strong argument in this case
for the abolishment of the death penalty.

Farmers have begun TO cut their
wheat in Maryland, consequently occa-
sional accidents may he expected unless

Casey, residing near Milltngton, while

his now Osborne reaper and binder WAS
not working properly, and thrusting his
hand into the mAohiue to clear out the
loose stalks which bad collected, he
stumbled over 3 sheaf, and falling for.

his hand with the thread, fastening ii
no he could not withdraw it. The horses
were Immediately stopped, but some
fifteen minutes elapsed before he could
be released from his painful position
A physician WAS Immediately called in
and afforded the necessary surgical aid.
II is hoped the bone may knit, although
badly shattered, and amputation will
be avoided.
Another farmer, Lemuel Leager, had
his hand caught in q machine, when
his fingers were 30 badly crushed rs to
render amputation necessary. These

Death of L. H. Coates.

Twin n. Coates, 924 Spring Garden
street, Philadelphia, we'll known by
many in Wilmington, died At his resi-.
dence yesterday, aged 70 years. About
Ave years ago he had fall, which was
followed by an attack OF typhoid fever
and two slight paralytic strokes. These
broke down his health, and subsequ uent-
ly he suffered from diseases Of the kid
neyB aud bladder. For two months
before his death he was confined TO his
room. He was son OF the late DR.
Caleb Coates, OF Philadelphia. He was
educated In the public schools and
learned the tailor trade. Afterwards
he became we'll known rs q merchant
tailor, and remained In that business

with various reform movements, the
principal OF which were the tenn perance
reform and tho movement for the Aboli.
tion of slavery. He was an active anti

such. With William Lloyd Garrison,
John G. Whittier, Robert Purves
LucretiA Mott and other famous per
sons, he participated in the organiEa-
tion, and was Afterw ards an active
member Of the American Anti. Slavery
Society. His own home, then at Sixth
and Cherry streets, was one OF the
stations on the e'underground railroad, y
At which fugitive slaves on their way
TO Canada were sheltered In daytime
and from which they were forwarded
on their journey At night.
In politics Mr.. Coates was an ardent
Republican. and his ability as a cam
pAign speaker brought his services into
wide demand In Pennsy lvania rs well al
in other States. His faculty in rein
forcing his argument by quotation and
ILLUSTRATION made him popular orator
