Tills U H The Legal Status of Advertise ments. A curious and interesting case has been decided in the Superior Court involving new snd somewhat peculiar points of law, of interest to all who ad' vortise. The facts arc briefly as fol lows, omitting the names of the liti gants: In December, 1876, A, doing business as a wholesale grocer, dis charged B, who had been employed as head of the ten department of his store. B sued Ain the Superior Court for 8250, one month's salary. In oir oulars sent ont by A was the statement that they hod ,;thc be it* t» buyer, whose sole doty it was to wstoh the market for bargains. A's defenso was that B spent too mnoh time in the tea market Chief-Jnstico Curtis charged the jury on the trial os a matter of law that "when a man presents to the "pnbllo, in the form of a circular or 'advertisement statements, he is 'bound by those statements. It is ‘not for him to say that it is a matter 'of business, or when business is dull 'a matter of course, to issue statomonts ‘that are untrue. If, after advertising 'his wares, goods, or medicines, with •statements for the publio to act up- 'on, lie comes into a court of justice, "he is bound by those statements.— 'The law knows no difference between “pretenses that ore false, except in the 'degree of moral or criminal turpitude, "and iu the punishment that attaches "to them. The mau who seeks by "false statements iu regard to his bus- "iness through uu advertisem ;nt, to “delude the public, when he does it “to reap profit for his owa advantage, “is taking the first stops on that road "which terminates with false pretuus- “es, with forgery, with crime, and "with those acts which imperil the “interests of all of as, and which tend “to destroy the property, and per- "Imps thu reputation, of every citi "Zen." The jury give a verdict against A for 8205. It must be admitted that there is much sound practical common souse A Mother’* Oldest Girl. Wjat a multitude of affections and mud associations cluster around the June of a mother’s oldest girl I a bond of union exists be tween the two! A mother's affee tion for a son or a younger daugh ter may be just as strong, her ma ternal sacrifice just as unselfish, but it is her oldest daughter for whom she feels the most delicate re- gnrd, and in whom is centred her most perfaot trust' Her association with her from her infancy is more like that of a companion than that of a child over whom she has’im- plicit control, and from whom she would exact rigid obedience. She consnlts her fnlly on alt confiden tial subjects, winning confidence in torn, and to her she resorts in hours of trouble, seeking consolation from the ypnng and lotring heart It is a motBor's oldest girl in whose care are entrusted the young er children daring her absence, and who watches over them as faithfully as Bhe herself would. It is these same faithful hands that smooth the locks from that m.ittrnal brow and minister most successfully to her in the hoar of sickness, would, therefore, seem harder to give her np than a younger ehild.— No one else could ever take her place. No one else could ever uu- durstuud and anticipate her as did her oldest girl, in whom were com- biued daughter, sister, companion and comforter. Sereloading (be Wrong Party. Kia.

In the case lust I named the plaintiff took ndvnutngo of “'!»' t ' 10 defendant's eireulnr, offering ccr- twj tu n goods at a vorr low prico. to order a large lino on speculation. The or it der was not filled, but the court held that tlio defendants were bound by the offer made iu their circular, and the plaintiff recovered largo damage,. Both esses are of importance, howovur, as showing the praotice of onr courts in fixing tlio measure ot legal responsi bility whioh thoso mast assume who mako positive statements in advertise- ments. In a word, what a man says iu bis advertisement is regarded as his de liberate and publio statement, to whioh he can always be held, and the inter- pretation pat upon snob statements by the courts is likely to be extremely lit eral.— Ibon Age.

Andrew Johnson was a tailor. Grant, though not a statesman, wasa tanner. Abraham Linooln was a rail splitter. Millard Filmore, when fit- teen yean of age, wm apprentioed as a wool carder and cloth Grosser. Web ster and how many others were tamer boys 7 Numbers of the most noted of onr publio men have risen from like stations to eminence, many of them having been mechanics and descen dants of mechanics. Roger Sherman, of revolutionary fame, wm a shoema ker, and the Shermans of to-day and Mr. Evarts, are his descendants. It did not, remarks tho Baltimore San, require any labor parties or labor or ganizations to bring these men to the front. Nothing obetrnets the way of the mechanic or other laborer in this ooontry to the highest positions, if he has the oapaoity, integrity aod indus try requisite to the performance of tho datjes involved. Prot Rossi, Italian inspector of ex cavations, has had the look to bring to light, on the plain ot Nervis, a Roman amphitheatre, oonstmoted in very fine dressed stone of Turbia. The port of tho external wall so for uncovered, and a grand gateway, are said to of a beau ty and solidify really marvellous. Improvements in Aeronautics.— In respect to tho gns balloon, one of the most important improvements is due to the ingenuity of M. Jo- bert, his pi in being to construct one side of tho gas-lml ler of wliito, and the other of black stuff, since it is easy to turn the balloon about its vertical axis by means of a small proprili r, so as to keep either the black side or tlio white sido always fin lag thu sum, and thus, by tho healing or cooling, make the bal loon either to ascend or descend to an extent depending upon the dif ference iu the redacting or absorb ing power of thu two valves of thu ballooii. By this mentis, it in thought, thu vertical movements of the bullno i may bo controlled to a sufficient extent to render its app i- cations in meteorology of mnoh im portance. Numerous prominent aeronauts have warmly advocated, of lute, tho nso of tho hot-air bal loon. A “Corset Liver.”—Somo medi cal students in ono of the colleges of this city, dissecting a female sub ject a few days ag >, found what is called in doctor’s parlance a “corset liver." When tight lacing has been practiced through sevoral years,-a permanent dent or liollow is pro duced in the liver, which may be seen very plainly after the woman is dead aad her liver dissected oat This kind of liver oocara so freq ueut- ly in women that physicians have given it tho name of "corset liver, In the subject mentioned the hollow in the liver was largo enough for the wrist of a grown man to bo laid in it Yonng ladies who don’t want their liven put into the newspapers and made an awful example of after they are dead, had better take war ning.—Cincinnati Commercial 0.

During the bright Lexington of yoath he had met a Baymiller street belle who smote him heart end sonL Mr. Culpepper’s intention in coming to Cincinnati was to serenade hie love.

Claude believed wae the sheltering fold of his dear lamb. He made a mistake of 100 in numbering the booses, and it was John Sanseript’s humble abode that was about to be honored with • serenade. John, however, is one of those misanthrop ic men who never seems to recog nize a favor when they meet one and when he woe awakened from his slumber by "Don’t you remember sweet Alice, Ben Bolt?” sung in one treble, one tenor, two basses and four keys, be was, to drew it mild, ruffled in his temper. Mrs. Son script heard the melody, too, and whispered, "Them’s serenadere.” "I’ll serenade them,” snarled John, getting np, opening the blinds shyly and looking down npon the choristers below. "What in the name of the Narai- dian hen are yon going to do ?” asked Mrs. S., rather uneasily. “Just wait and see,” said he, gathering np an armfal of boots and laying them down handy near the window. Jnst then the boys tuned up— Thou art so near, and yet so far I “Not so far as you imagine,” growled Hauscipt, as he dumped the cool from the Seattle conveniently near tho window. Then ho tugged the brimming slop-bucket across the room aud added it to his armory just ns the gay gamboliers switched off into— What has a poor girl But her name to defend her? "She sometimes find her father does that pleasant duty,” muttered •he desperate man. The boys were singings medloy, and while Ban- script was gathering in the tongs and Bhovels, they began to warble: My heart is broke, God knows it is I “And your bead will be in the sarao condition when I get through witq yon,” panted the avenger. Then be added the Bible and Web ster’s unabridged dictionary to the pile of missiles by the arindowat tbs very moment there floated np from below— I shall ne’er forget the day f "Nor will you ever forget the night when yon come to serenade my hooae,” smiled the old man, reaching for the oil can.

Itwss always supposed that his remains rested in the cathedral in Havana, bnt wbilo some repairs were being made in the cathedral in Son Domingo, a leaden casket was discovered, oa which were inscriptions proving that the remains of the great set captain were enclosed therein. The troth of this discovery is vouched for by prominent officuls in tho Is land of San Domingo. dared Senscript, os he eoooped np the hair brash and the toilet set from the dresdng case.

Open the window, my aweet one, "Darned if I don’t,” grinned Son- script, as he added a pailful of ashes to the pile o! destruction by the window. Come, birdie, oome— Tm ooming, yon yelping hound,” yelled the old man, thrusting bis only ten seconds of standard time to pitch boots, shoes, coal, hair brosbes, books, toilet sets, ottoman, ■ slops, indies and ail npon the beads of the horror-stricken serenaders below. Before the quartette real ized the situation, the stofM was over. They all survived, Wt were- unmercifully demoralized. And' when a voice came above, articula ted in the key of J the one word "git,” - they got Organization or MimTIa.—Senator Davie, of West Virginia, who hoe been giving much attention to fits subject, lias concluded to address faiuMsfltothe preparation of a plan to encoangv the organization of the militia of tbe State through the aid of the General GS*> ernment Senator Davis has comma-' nicuted his views to a number of Sea-' ators and members, and find* that they moke a very favorable impreaaiop. Senator Davisjprocoeds on the; idea, and in this he is sustaiued by very many, that the true way to insure do mestic peaoe and .tranqnilify is not to increase the regular army, bat to pro vide an efficient militia. This is olio tho view of a number of the Houm, who ndvocate an army reduction. It is held that tho regular army in time of peace should bo brought down to tbe lowest standard consistent with tho proper care of the publio works, fortifications, etc., and the necessities of frontier duty. Then let tho Gener al Government supply arias, ammuni tion, eta, to tbe several States, snd also make annual appropriations in money to aid them in putting tbeir militia on an efficient footing both as regards pereonnet, material and esprit du corpus. These are propositions which will be submitted fortheoon- sidorution of Congress, and they ore likely to meet with popular approval. Cotton Manufacturing In tho South. Mobile's cotton factory appears to be an established foot, A company is organized, and though not all the capital stock that was desired fua been subscribed, the directors ore about to start tbe enterprise with 1,846 spiudlea, which will consume about 800 boles of cotton yearly and replace it with $100,000 worth of yatn. The Register says tbe com pany has tho advantage of three oenta per pound over the New En gland manufacturers, which is $12,- 000 for the 800 bales, a handsome dividend in itself, while at the same time labor is cheap, the weather has inolement, and there Is a market right at home. Though this assy be the beginning of competition . with eastern manufactures, the worHf is large enough for all, and we wel come anything that promises* new prosperity for the south.
