on 1)11ULlr1 the provisions of
! act 23 of the statuesoi 187]1. rend
ered a judgment of $1000 in favorof
the plaintiff and the dededant ap
pealed
There are numerous bills of ex
ceptions found in the record, but
their examination is not important
in determining this case. Six of
them relate to the formation of,
and the judge's charge to the jury;
the other two relate to the admis
sion of testimony, and are not im
portant. There was no evidence
introduced on the part of the de
fendant.
All the material allegations of the
plaintif, we consider, are fully es
tablished. The plaintiff is shown
to be a man of character and re
spectability; that he has frequently
held public offices, and that he is
now, and was at the time he was
refused refreshments, in defendant's
coffeehouse saloon, Civil Sheriff of
the parish of Orleans.
It is clear that the refusal of the
accommodations asked for was made
solely on the ground that the plain
tiff is a man of color. The defend
ant has therefore incurred the pen
alty of the act of 1869 (Acts of 1869,
p. 37). We think the judgment is
therefore correct.
From this opinion Justices Wiley
and Howe dissented, on the grounds
that the damages were excessive.
Justice Wiley remarked:
"The question of damages with
the District Judge seemed to have
depended upon the color of the
plaintiff; I think there should be no
distinction. Furthermore, if defend
ant, instead of merely refusing the:
plaintiff a drink, had picked up a
chair and beaten him half to death.
the damae es he would have recov
ered would probably not have ex
ceeded $250. Shall a man's right
of personal protection be considered
less sacred than his right to receive
a drink? I think the case should
properly have been remanded for a
new trial before a jury."

HARPER'S BAZAR.
A supplement containing numerons full

NOTICES Or THE PRESS.
Harper's Bazar contains, besides pic
tures, patterns, etc., a variety of matter
of especial use and interest to the family;
articles on health, dress, and housekeep-I
ing in all its branches; its editorial matter
is specially ailapted to the circle it is in
tended to interest and instruct: and it has,
besides, good stories and literary matter
of merit. It is not surprising that the
journal, with such features, has achieved
in a short time an immense success; for
semethin" of its kind was desired in
thousands of families, and its publisherm
have filled the demand. The young lady
who buys a single number of Harpers I
Bazar is nmade e. subscriber for life. - ew
The Bazsr is excellent. Like all the
periodlicals which the Harpers publish, it
is almost ideally well edlited, and the class
of readers for whom it is intended-the
mothers and daughtirs in average fain
iles-cannot but profit by its good sense'
and good taste, which, we have no doubt,
ire to-day making very many homes hap
dier than they may have been before the
women began taking lesons in personal
and household and social management
from this good-natured mentor. -The Ni
