A SATE WAGER. Buston leradd. Not meany weeks ago a. gentleman engaged apartments at one of our fashiovable family ho- tels.

After several days’ sojourn he had succeeded fn making limself disagreeable to all those he came in contact with. On the eleventh day after Tis arrival s middle-aged and a young lady en- terea ‘tne hotcl-oflice, and, ' registering * their names- as mother and daughter, cngaged an apartment.

Our awkward_friend, the first arrival, was among the candidates for the damsels favor. His repeated _advancements and obtrusive re- marks to her brought down on him the justly- werited ridicule ot al, especially those interest- ed, und more particutarly of one young man who was possessed of considerable wealth and a lim- ited supply of brains. 1l declarcd that the ugly fellow’s attentlons, were insulting. to the fair lady, while she homely memberof the race thought that he was more acceptable in the young fady's eyes than any other man in the hotel, and with a_taunting boost offered to Let the rich young man $500that before twenty-four hours he would be on Luniliar terms with the young lady, snd would sccompany her to the theatre. 2 Toolish as it may seemn, the young 1van took thie bet, and $1,000_were placed iv the hands of the hotel clerk. True bo bis boast, within the prescribed time the wely man 1ook the band- some woman to the Globe Theutre. On return- ing to the hotel the.- clerk handed him S1,000.

LIBERTY OF BEQUEST. An Englishman's Right to Dispose of His Own Property—Only Two Restrictions Im- posed on Him. London Spectator. Itis very difficult to wake the average En- glishman listen to a wora against the liberty of bequest. e holds that such a worl impugns his right to do what he likes with his own prop- erty, that it threatens his authority over his own family,—which is not maintained here, as it {s in many countries of the Contincnt, by posi- tive law.—aod that it is put forward, in some mysterious way or other, inthe interest of French democratic opinlops. Any Interference, he thinks, must take the form of insuriogcom- pulsory cqual division at death, and to that di- vision, tnough be very ofien makes it, the En- giishman is in theory stoutly opposed. He has, fherefore, partly through legislation, partly through continuous verdicts,and partlv through a steady. gressum of opinion, sccured himself comblete liberty of bc:luest, with two or three Jogal restrictions and one’ very odd practical Jimitation. A man cannot make a bequest for an immoral or anti-social purpose. he cannot Jock up money to accumulate for any long period of time. and fie cannot make conditions which the Judges will declare is- contrary to _public policy to observe. A legacy, for example, con- tingent on the legatce acquiring a Peerage, has Deen declared, after a greas struggle, to be vold, ‘V}t\l 'i]hcne exceptions, his right of bequest, it only be s in possession-of the property, is_limited only by certain restrictions, for- mal and inforinal, as to his - method of signifying his - autoeratic decrce. Nothing either in law or executive opinion binds him to select any heir or heirs other than such persons as_mayto him seem’ good. He may leave his wife a pauper if he ‘Yleuses; + disappoint. every expectation of his children, and leave all other relatives, whatever their claims or -their necessities, absolutely unnoticéd, and no Jaw- ver, however speculaive, will eriously attack the will. There bave been cases in which a tes< tator, after enjoying grest rauk for years, has left next to nothiug to support his title, be- auesting his property to comparative strangers; orbas leftawife, apparently dearly- beloved, fn absolute poverty; or bas distinctly cheated adopted children by fulschoods, steadlly main- tained up to' the very last moment of ~his life. In one case, which became important -from a decision under the mortmain law, a wealthy law- yer adopted a nephew, bred him up delibe‘megfi ‘without a profession, because he would not net one, remained toward him in the relation of an affectiopate Iather to a dutiful son up to the moment_of his decense, and neverthieless be- queathed every shilling he possessed to glorify Lis own name as the donor of small annuities to aged townsfolk. - The nepbew got nothing what- ever. No power so complete exists in any other conntry of theworld except the United States, and in the United States, though seldom lmit- cd by law,—there is, if we recollect aright, & law protucting widows inonc or two of the States, —it_is materially affected in practice by the Treadiness of juries to declare that the, iniustice, or- oddity, or vindictivencss visible in a will is proof positive by itseif of the testator’s inea- pacity to make one. Eungland, however, it is of 10 use attacking such a 'will on the merits. The Judges will always rule the jurymen bave nothing to do with the injustice of 2ny disposal ‘of property, ‘but only to detide what” that dis- posal was, and jurymen who holda bequest and a ify to beidentical think that dictum perfectly right 80d proper. . A man bas 3 right to spead his own money ashe likes, anda bequest is only to the averaze English mind, which is not open to theories sbout implied contracts, a method of expeuditure. This liberty, however, absolute as it seems, is limited by _two restrictions on the method of muking Wwilsof o very operative kind, though one of them fs not_ recoznized by auy statute. A man must by Iaw continuc to live for six months after he has made a bequest to = relizi- ous or charitable obdect., ar his bequest is void. Heis not preveoted, asa great many pecple to this day imagine, from malking the bequest. On that point bis right is as absolute asit the charity to be benefited were his child, but he must live on for sIX months after signing his will or his intention falls at once to the ground. And a man raus} so manage that the person who drafts his will shall not'be the chief, nora fortiorl the only beeficiary under his will, forif heis the chances are that the will will never. be car- ried out.. There Is no law whatever aouinst such an occurrence. No man is prohibited from drafting & will inhis own favor. No Judee would fay it Gown as rule that such a will was invalid, but the prejudices of the common sense of mankind triumph in this one case over En- glish liberty of bequest, 2ud a will so maderuns a very great, chance, if the property is large, of being at last npset. . Jurymen will not bear that men like themselves shomld beso tempted.
