TIE CANAL SUIr.-The canal case has taken
| another step by the filing of exceptions by the
city to portions of the report of Commissioner
Fowler. The commissioner has. it is thought,
been wrong in holding that the taking by the
state of Virginia of the three-ffths of the city
stock In the canal was intended as purchase
in the market. 1t is urged that this exchange
OF money for the stock by the state of Virginia
was in fact intended as a gift to Alexandria,
and that the transfer Of the then valueless
stock was q mere matter of form: Questions as
to the application of some credits will also arise
on the exceptions to the report, and it is ex-
pected that the case will be q very protracted
one.

MIRTH IN THE SUPREME COURT.
Mr.. John 8. Wise on . Question Of
ssReinfOrced Drawers.'

II Mr.. John 8. Wise continues to practice be-
fore the Supreme Court of the United States,
and if there is any fattening virtue in laugh
ter, then the avoirdupois Of the Supreme
Bench will be soon increased to an alarming
degree. Yesterday the Virginia-New Yorker
established a precedent that the most radically
minded attache Of the court would have re-
garded as revolutionary. Heretofore the JUS
tees Of the Supreme Court have listened with
the utmost solemnity to the arguments Of
counsel Very rarely would anything humor-
Gus crop up in q hearing, and when it did come
the man who had been guilty Of the apparent
breach Of court etiquette always looked as
though he was ashamed of himself. On two or
three occasions the court has smiled at the
quaint remarks of some unawed lawyer, but it
never before yesterday gave vent, in its Judi
cial capacity, to real loud laugh. Mr.. Wise
peared in behalf of the defendant in a
suit for infringement of patent The patent
in the case was that granted for the reinforce
ment of such articles of underwear as drawers,
at places where those garments are likely to
split or wear out. Mr.. Wise's client manufac-
tured drawers and reinforced them in the same
manner as those made by the patentee; hence
the suit. A pair Of the patented articles was
produced and submitted to the inspection of
the court, accompanied by assurances from the
REINFORCED
pair was equal to two ordinary pairs, and that
splits were simply impossible. These state
ments were contradicted by Mr.. Wise, and it
was in his contradictions that the fun came in.
He contended that one pair could never be as
good as two pair, and he stated his willingness
to prove the truth Of his assertion by engaging
with his legal adversary in q little game Of
draw" On the question of "splits" MIR, Wise
said that the plaintiff was endeavoring to
reverse the true order of things, for in
''faro" the 'splits" were in favor of the
dealer, while in this case they we're against
him. These references were greeted with
laughter by the entire court. Mr.. Wise con-
tlnued his argument at some length to show
that the plaintiff designed, by the power of a
patent which should never have been granted
to usurp the privileges of the home; he pro-
posed to patch drawers before they needed
patching, before they were torn, while draw
ers never should be patched until after they
had been torn. and then the mending should
be done by the wives, mothers and sisters
whose proud prerogative it was to do these
things. The patent he claimed, was aimed at
one of the most sacred privileges of the do
mestic hearth. As Mr.. Wise went on in this
and similar strains the mrth increased until
at last there was an almost continuous roar.
Nothing like it was ever before heard in the
Supreme Court room. and had the justices rem
dered decision on the spot Mr.. Wise would
undoubtedly have been victorious. He may
win anyhow. but the court has reserved its
decision and will not announce it until it has
recovered from its cachinnatory effort.
