TtilE TKCTT jkErfALb,:Jb(liY, ARIL 17, 1878. TUXtfil SMtiuff A4rrMaUf. Under the tboro head tho Philadel phia Ileal $tato Journal says: A curions and interesting cam has been decided la tho Superior Court, in Yoking now and somewhat peculiar points of law, of interest to all who ad vertiao. Tho facts aro briefly as follows, omitting tho naves of tho litigants : In December, 1870, A, doing business ns a wholesale grocer, discharged B, who had been employed as head of the tea de partment of his storo. B sued A in tho Superior Court for 230, one avonth's alary. In circulars sent out by A, was the statement that they had the best tea buyer, whose solo duty it Was to watch tho market for bargains. A's defense was that B spent too much timo in tho tea market. Chief Justice Curtis charged the jury on tho trial as a. matter of law that "when n man presents to tho public, in tho form of circular or advertise ment statement, 'hu tn bound bythotxj statements. It w not for him to say that it is a matter of business, or when business is dull as a matter of course, to issuo statements that aro untrue. If, after advertising hi wares, goods or medicines with statements fur the public to act upon, ho conic into n court of justice, ho is bound by tlioso statement. Tho law knows no diffcrenco between pretenses that aro falsi except in tho de- See of moral or criminal turpitude, and tho punishment that attache to them. The man who seek by f'abo statements in regard to liU busiuesi through an ad vertisement to ileludu tho public, when he docs it to reap profit for bis own ad vantage, is taking tho lint ttcp on that road which terminates with falso pre tciucs, with forgerv, with crimo and with those nets wliicli imperil tho inter ests of all of us, and which tend to de stroy tho proper!, and perhaps tho rep utation, of every citizen. Tho jury gave a verdict against A for 92t3. It must lie admitted that there is much sound prueiic.il common senso in Judge Curtis' deeiiiuiu This is a very diltercnt pi nut trom that covered in tho decision in tho ca.w of Hull v. Hull, Kimhark & Co., which our readers may remember. In the. caso Ut named the plaintiff tonic advantage of tho defend ant's circular, otll'iing certain g'uods at a very low price, to order tv largo lino on speculation. Tho ordir was not filled, but tho court held that the iL'ieiulantrf were hound by tin offer inuda in their circular, and tho plaintilf recovered largo damage.!. J'ctli c:cs aw of importance, however, nH showing th i practice of our courts in lix.ng thu measure of legal re sponsibility which they must nxsmuc who make pofiitiw statements in udver tiscment.i. Mn. Adam Baueau, United States Consul General at London, iu a dispatch to tho Stato Department at Washington, refers to tho annual report cf tC3 Consul at Manchester, mid invites particular at tention to tho influx of workmen from tho United States to various points in Great Britain, whether as carpenters to Manchester, masons to Louden and Glasgow, or miners to Derbyshire, in consequence of a notion spreading among American mechanics that tho labor mar ket on tho other sido of tho Atlantic is better tlian in tho Unitod States. Ho says that, utilc&i tho mechanic has pre viously obtained a contract Insuring liim employment, ho-now irencrally find him self without cither money or work ; his condition rapidly becomes wor.se, and he u obliged to part with his clothintr. in ord.T to obtain food and lodging, until finally bo appear at tho nearest United States Consulate, half BWrrcd, and with hardly buflicient raiment to cover his nakudticM, begging to bo sent back to the United States. Tho Consul General urges tho importance cf bringing beforo Ameri can mochanii's tho improvidence of their course in Evoking wor!: from Rtrangcrs und at a distanco from home, without having iwsitivo aasuranto that tlioy will bo cue eesKful, nud especially to warn such per sous that the Connular officers of the United States aro not authorized to grant them any relief whatever.

The object -fa to free tho air from dust, cacossive damp ness, and possibly from tho germs of malaria. Tho contrivance oonskts es sentially of a . fibrous woven fabric, strengthened by brass wlro. , It is to bo applied to windows and ventilators, and may bo of service on railway cars to eulade dust. It hat tho merit of chocking drafts while admitting air. Its general use might tend to prevent tho spread of malarial diseases, and modify the dangers that dirty streets occasion to tho health of city residents. Toko say ten gallons, new eider, and suffer it to ferment fully, which will probably bo in about two weeks if the weather bo warm ; then add about eight gallons of new cider for producing a sec ond fermentation, and in about two weeks add a like quantity to produce a third fermentation. Stop tho bungholo of the barrel with an empty bottle with tho ucck downward and expose to tho sun. When the vinegar is come, set in a cool place. When making let there bo a moderate degree of heat and free access of external air. Tho process is hastened by adding td tho cider a quantity of mother of vinegar, as it is called, a whit ish, ropy coagulum, of mucilaginous ap pearance, which is formed in vinegar and acts as a ferment. Tho strength of vinegar depends upon tho amount of sugar or starchy matter to bo ultimately converted into acetic acid. Cider made, from late apples is esteemed tho best for vinegar.

Tho amount of sugar annually con sumed in Great Britain is 000,000 tons, being about 00 pounds for every one of tho population. Haw Migar, when im ported, contains from - to 3 jkt cent, of impurities. As much as three tons of htonn have been found in a singlo cargo. According to experiments mado by Dr. Cameron of Dublin and Dr. Ilmwcl of London, ns many its 100,000 mites are sometimes found in c pound of raw augur. A case was lately beforo the Circuit Court, Glasgow, which showed that arsenic was mixed with sugar. A captain was charged with causing tho death of several seamen by serving out putrid pork to them, but on tho sugar being analyzed by Dr. Maclagan of Edinburgh, it was found tu contain sufficient arsenic to cause death. This Migar was supplied to tho ship at Callao. A Dutch sonman, being condomncd to death, bad lib sentence commuted to banishment for life upon St. Helena. On ; being landed thero ho btolo a coffin, mid, naving marlo n rudder ot tho luJ, ven tured to sea in it. When lib guards on the ship, which had become becalmed within a league and a half of the island, saw tho strango craft floating slowly over tho water, they at first imagined a bpec Ire, but, on recognizing tho fugitive, they took a voto of the officers and crow, and it was decided to show mercy to tho cour ageous fellow. Ho was picked up, taken to Holland, and supported by tho crew until pardoned through tho intercession of tho late Queen. Tho latest design for a funeral piece w a ship, with black crap sails.
