 wayland Knowlton, lawyer of Belfast, Maine, is the plaintiff in c remarkable lawsuit. He seeks to obtain 5000 on the death of child ten years ago. The writ, drawn by MT. Knowlton himself, says in substance that in 1881 he hired the Monroe House in Belfast, now owned by J. D. Tucker; that the house was warranted to be comfortable and warm, the furnace good and ample to heat the house. But, on the contrary, the cellar walls were cracked, which let in the cold, and the furnace was old and insufficient. In con- sequence of these defects his little son took cold, followed by croup, and after great suffering died. MT. Knowlton says he was greatly injured in body and mind, injured in his business and put to great expense. He thinks that 5000 will heal his mental suffering.

HARD TO CATCH.

A we'll meant law doesn't always work according to the intention of it's makers. It struck the legislators of Michigan that it which would catch mortgages for taxation. Accordingly law was made. It provided that every county register of deeds should report to the assessing officer in his county all undischarged mortgages held by resi- dents of the county, and all other mort gages held by persons in the State to the registers of deeds in the counties of which the mortgages were residents. The effect was to put every register of deeds in the State in possession of list of all residents of his county holding mortgages on prop erty anywhere in the State, and through the register to put the assessing officers in possession of information as to all mort gagees living in their districts.
 The plan is said to have worked we'll for the purpose of catching the mortgages. That it has worked well in other respects, or met the expectations of it's authors, can not be affirmed with truth. Two things have been discovered: First, that on new evidences of debt the mortgageor pays the tax, when it is paid at all. It is paid under the Michigan law in cases where the mortgagee lives in the State. In cases where he lives outside of the State the tax is not paid. The Michigan collector can not get tax out of nonresident lender the law does not require him to accomplish that feat. The tax is collected from the
 resident lender, but on new loans he col lects enough from the borrower to cove, the tax.
 But it has been discovered, in the sec ond place that residents of the State who
 have money to lend on mortgage security lend it in other States and not in Michigan Residents of other States can lend il
 Michigan and avoid the tax. Therefore they can afford to lend at lower rates thar can residents who are reached by the tax
 ing machinery. But the latter can talk
 their money to other States where the. can loan it and not be reached.

 There is @ naturalist whose hobby consists in collecting the fine dust with which the wings of moths and butterflies are covered and forming it into the most artistic and picturesque designs.
 He mounts each single grain of dust sep arately, so as to make bouquets of flowers, fern leaves and butterflies lowering around. This he does in a space occupied by the eigth of an inch.
 In another design he has vase of pas, sion flowers made of upwards of 500 grains of dust; and again he has represented 6 pot of fuchsias with butterflies and birds in three sixteenth of a square inch.

ALL HAPPY.

ALL ktAFFxs
 Democracts are usually pretty unani- nous, and therefore it is not surprising to find the prominent Democrats and the Democratic newspapers unanimous in de- claring that the decision concerning the "For" ballots doesn't amount to anything; that they knew long ago what it would be, and that if it had been anything else they would have been surprised and grieved, etc etc.
 As nothing has pleased the Democrats hitherto during the whole controversy it is relief to find one thing that they are all satisfied with. And the Republicans too are pleased with the decision. It sup ports the position that has all along been held by them, and their view as to these ballots is declared sound by the highest authority in the State.
 We invite Brother Totten's attention to the pleasure exhibited by the Democrats on account of this decision. It is curi- ous sign of the times. Perhaps they will be still more pleased when Judge Morris claims are still further knocked out.
