THE DECISION AFFIRMED.
An Owner of a Vessel Must Comply
With the Contract in the Bill of
IadfnE

An Owner of a Vessel Must CompI,
With the Contract in the BiII of
Lading.
The supreme court has just affirmed
the verdict and decision of the city court
in the case Of Hoist & Weber against
Robinson. master of a steamship char
tered to carry cotton 10 Spain and Italy
The vessel went first to Genoa, by rea-
son Of which a heavier duty was charged
by the Spanish government on the cargo
consigned TO Barcelona. The consignors
sued to recover from the owner of the
vessel on the ground of breach OF con
tract, and a verdict for the amount
claimed. with attorneys fees. was rem
dered in the plaintiffs favor. The de
cision rendered by Chief Justice Simmons
says:
Where the owner of ship who has
chartered out the hold. retains control
or the navigation of the vessel and bills
OF lading for goods consigned therein.
which tNmselves contain the contract
OF anreightment, are issued by the mas
ter at the instance of the charterer TO
the consignors, the owner is bound
the performance of the con-
tract of ahre;ghtment as con-
tanned in the bills of lading, and the con-
signors are not affected by provisions of
the charter party inconsistent with such
contract
Where in such case the goods were
consigned to a port in Spain, under bills
Of lading reciting that the vessel was
bound for that port, and the vessel went
hrst without necessary or reasonable
cause, to a port in Italy. not in the usual
course of vessels bound from Savannah
to the Spanish port. thus subjecting the
goods, when delivered at that port, to
an extra duty under the law of Spain.
this was such a deviation as would au-
thorize the consignors to recover in an
action against the owner of the ship for
loss thus occasioned.
THE contract upon which this action
was founded being unamb. guous, and there
being no conflict in the evidence as to its
breach or the amount of the damages
thereby occasioned to the plaintiffs. there
was no error in directing verdict in their
favor to the extent of that amount. Ii
not appearing, however, that the defend
ant was stubbornly litigous or acted in
bad faith, the recovery of attorneys fees
was Illegal; and accordingly direction is
given that the amount of these fees be
written off from the plaintiffs recovery.
Judgment affirmed with direction"
Messrs. Hoist & Weber We're repre-
scented by Messrs. Charlton, Mackal &
Anderson, and the owners of the vessel by
Mr.. c. N. West. There are several other
suits of the same kind on similar grounds
now pending in the city court.

The nunch Yam snstnined.

In the June 1 issue of your valuable
publication we notice that Mr. Wilson Of
Miakka, Fla. writes in very unfavorable
terms of the bunch yam sweet potato,
says H. b. c., in Home and Farm
We are disposed to believe that Mr.. VIII
son did not have the genuine bunch yam.
Because, we know from experience, that
it is the most prolific sweet potato that
grows, in so far as our experience goes,
and we have tried nearly all Of the pop
ular varieties of the sweet potato.
We have found the bunch yam superior
to them all in several respects:
First, because its vines do not run, but
grow bunchy and upright, as its name sig
nifies.
Second, because the potatoes cook well
and are good to eat when young and
small.
Third, because both vines and tubers
grow fast and mature in a short season,
thereby making IL a potato that can be
set out late, and yet mature before frost.
Fourth, because the bunch yam is n
prolific bearer of long, yellow, sweet ana
rich tubers.
Fifth, because It can stand dry weather
and thrive. The vines are just about
high and heavy enough to shade the rows
well, and so keep the ground about the
roots cool and moist even in dry seasons.
Sixth, because the vines do not run all
over creation, but stay with the roots,
so to speak, and permit frequent and late
cultivation ea-fn~ W. ~ fr-gY ..-
The bunch yam sweet potato that we
speak of originated in Lowndes county,
mississippi, on the plantation Of James
Harvey. 1t is also grawn extensively by
2. c. Barksdale of the same county. We
know it is a good thing. is true to name.
and that 1t is not fraud, for we have
tried il to our entire satisfaction.
We have planted the slips as late as
the Fourth OF July, and matured the TO-
tatoes before the vines were damaged by
frost. On other occasions we have had
the frost injure the vines, but have sue
ceeded in maturing the tubers by cut
ting the vines off Immediately close to
the ground.
This is a fact that my be unknown to
a great many, yet it is true, not only OF
the bunch yam. but of any other kind Of
sweet potato that If frost killed vines are
cut off promptly near the ground the po-
tatoes will still grow good deal, particu-
lary if rain and warmer weather should
follow the frost, which is quite frequently
the case.
And another point: Should late frost
in the spring fall on the vines, they may
be saved from damage by taking an or
binary water sprinkler and sprinkling the
vines thoroughly before the sun has a
chance at them. The water washes the
frost off, and prevents blighting almost
entirely. Il. y. G.

The first essential is to have good ten
der, sweet corn, and as fresh from the
fields as possible, says an exchange Cut
the corn from the cob. To six quarts Of
corn add one ounce of tartaric acid, dis
solved in cold water enough to cover the
corn. The tartaric acid should be put
into water first and the corn added while
the water is cold. Let 1t come to boil
1t will foam In boiling considerably and
must be boiled until the froth settles
when it is ready TO can. If there is not
enough water to cover the corn, more
may be added at any time, afterward stir
ring it well. Put in glass while hot and
seal tightly. This is a safe and simple
process; the corn is almost absolutely
certain to keep indefinitely. The skill re-
quired is in the preparation for the table
open the can four or five hours before
it is needed and stir well through the
corn with the liquor left over it,, one
teaspoonful of baking soda" to each
quart and let it stand, stirring it occas-
ionally until time to prepare IL for the
table, which need not take moro than ten
or fifteen minutes, then bring it to the
boiling point and season to taste just as
you would in summer. Your teaspoons
may be a little too large or small. and you
may not get enough, or a little too much
soda in. 1t is easy to add a little more If
the corn is not as sweet as 1t should be.
If there is too much in the corn will be
yellow; in this case there should be at
hand a little of the acid that can be added
in small quantities until the proper color
is obtained. Corn preserved in this way
retains the crisp tenderness of the summer
vegetables, and when skiilfully prepared
may easily be mistaken for fresh corn. In
some cases a little sugar is an improve
