John V. Masury and such other parties as may, for a valuablo consid- oration, ba by him liconsed to mako, sell, and uso such cang, It appoars that; In 1859, John W. Masury, of tho City of Bmakiyn, sccurcd o patont for an improvement in paint cans. Tho improvemont, it sooms, conaistod maluly of arimor ring of. brass or othor soft motal” around tho top of an ordiuary paint can, with. a cap of thick. tin to prosorve tho strongth of thacan inits saliont parts; tho purposo being to uocuro a can thedto) of which could be roadily ont out smoothly af the edge. This can Mi. Masury hns continued to munko and uso in his business _ever bince, and othor partles lave also mado and usod it under liconso from him,' 7t In tho meanwhilo tho demand for tin enns hns incronsed enormously, and many partics, who dony all knowlodgo of Mr. Masury's patent, have ono into tha business of manufacturing them. gomo of tho makers claim to have mado thom before Masury appliod forhis patent,just as thoy ave now making thom, to-wit: with one end of thin tin, knowiy'as taggoratin ; so called bocauso it.was first usod in malnng tiu togs or taggoers for tho onds of shoo-strings. DBut in 1871 Alas- ury, in a suit in tho United ' States : Court, got a‘;{nnreu sustaining his patent ;- and lnst spring, in another suit against Anderson, Piorca ho obtained p docroo enjoining the use of cnns with ono ond mado of ‘tin or taggers tin...This gcopo, it {8 slleged, was givon to his patont on tho supposition ‘that taggors tin -ia block-tin rollod into tin shoots, whoraas iu truth it is ivon contod with tin, a8 fy tho case with all tin-plates. Haying got this deores, Masury wont to worl to got an oxtonsion of his patont. Ife also sued the Borden Condonaed Milk Company, and it was .understood that he intouded to muko tho milk. compnnies gny him $100,000, ond the t trado anothor $100,000, sud thoso engaged in canning fruits; flah, monts,’ yogotables, etc., othor. vast sums, This, of course, oxoited » great commotion among the makers and users of tin cans, and 88 over ton millions of cans aro mado annnanlly, the mattor assumed:formidablo pro- portions, : The Borden coml:my filed an_oppo- gition to the oxtension of .tho patent, and so- oured a decision that Masury was limited to **an _ annuluis of thin brass or other soft metal;" that “'ho was not tho first to ronch tho gonoral re- sult,” and thorefore * could not invoke the doc~ trino of equivalents,” which mesus that tin cans woro mads with onds that could bo cut out before Liis'patout was applied for, and that Fuuplu who do not infringo upon his ** annulus of thin brass or other soft metal " ecan go on making tin cans ad libitum. ENAC ‘I'he cato nfininat the Borden Company oame on beforo Judge Blatehford on motion for an in- junction restraining them from making or using tho cans during _tho -pondency of tho nction. Messrs, Niles & Bagloy, tho counscl for tho Com- pany, opposed tho motlon on , afMidavits showing thag [ho shoot tin of commorco Is nob o soft motal, and that the defendants hod medo iheir cans with ooe ond of thin or taggors tin, a8 thoy do now, sinca May, 1838; also that Boston firms Liad douo tho samo thing since 1856 and 1857. The Hon. William W, Niles mado an extonded and powerzul argumont for tho, defendants, and Judgo Blatehford ook tho m&mm aud rosorved his deoision. Tho result islooked for with in- tenso anxiety by thoso concorned, as it involves largo Interests in difforont J;ms of the country. Tho royalty flcmnndud‘l:f' o patontoo is threo conts a ean, which would give him $800,000 a year on tho 10,000,000 cans annually mauufac- tured, or $2,100,000 for the soven ?ama for which hig patont is oxtended., But if it .shall be de- cided that his patout doos not -include taggors tin, ho will be ablo to get no roynll.fl at oll from the partios who use that metal in the manufac- turo of thoir cans. s —_— A Cholera Incidont of 1833, From the Carlisle (Ky.)

Auothor caso, however, of this kind, g describod by Prof. Friedricn in Virchow's Archiv, possossea peculinr interost. Boucerotto's case was that of a man, aged 80, tho weight of whora body roso, in tho spnce of four yenrs, from 119 to 178 pounda, by tho in- cronso of his bonos, the musclos all tho whila while wasting.

Just at this time thoro is a big jam of logs in tho 1iver, some govonloen rafts In all being tied. out from the -boom to tho Byistol * streot = bridge, . and the within this torritory is & complete jam of logs in rafts. Tho nmount is ostimated at 85,000 piccos, or about 17,000,000 foat of logs. Of this amount, iwelve rafts belong to tho ‘Wittabuwas- soo, two to Cass River, and threo to Bad River, The Cnes River loga aro under the management of Will Bridges, and,the Bad Rivor logs, which como down tho Shinivassos, undor tho charga of Tom Creswell.

Having fiulnml this posi- tion, Bridgos moved down another raft, aud, by a combination with Cresswoll, tho Bad Rivor logs aro_moved down to tho Cues River logs, thus making & continuous string of five rafts, allof which will have to bomoved boforo tha Tittabawnssoo mon can got out ouy moro logs, “Fhoro aro probably more logs in the river at this time than at any ono time bofore, and the sight prosonted is g fine one.” —— The Xattle of the lRullfrogs.
