the amount Of the damages they had sustained by
the destruction of certain rights to take wharfage,
cranage, etc.

the original trial the city was represented by william
e Whitney, then Counsel to the Corporation, and the
complaints were dismissed. Upon appeal however,

Stopping the Paper.

The Weiser Leader says: After you
get upon your ear and make up your
mind to stop" your paper to make
your editor feel humiliated, Just poke
your finger in water and pull it out
and look for the hole Then you will
know how sadly you are missed.
The man who thinks paper can net
exist without his support ought to go
off and stay awhile. When he comes
back he will find that half his friends
did not know he was gone. The other
half didn't care cent, and the world
at large hadn't kept account of his
movements whatever.
You will probably find something in
your home paper which you cannot in
dorse. Even the bible Is rather plain
and hits some hard ticks lfyou were
to get mad and burn your bible the
hundreds of presses would still be
publishing. And what is more, you
will sneak around every day and bor-
