Ventilation for Cupboards.—In the eonstrue- ‘on of old houses, and in too many instances new ones also, a great defect 1s to be found | in the absence of any mode of ventilation for the cuphoards. This omissi is a serious one in all cases, but especially in those which are devoted to’ the reception of food or of dirty linen. In such eases these closets, with their contents, become laboratories for thc manufacture of polluted air, which from Ume to time escapes into the living rooms and makes Itself unpleasantly apparent. The remedy for this is not difficult; a few perforations in the doors will be found ser- | vieeable; but if found practicable the wall of the cupboard should also be perforatcd, so that a thorough draft could be obtained, Oat-Meal Pie Crust.—Seaid two parts of oat- meal with one part of hot water.

Fendall, executor of Lenox, was argued, and the de- cree of the court below was affirmed. This 4 | Was asuit inequity to compel the delivery of an unrecorded title deed for certain real estate in the city of Washington, District of Columbia. Thé testimony shows that the grantor in said deed, (Walter Lenox.) sada | after the execution Qud delivery thereof to the plaintiff, grantee, made her a friendly call, when he ascertained that she had not pleced said deedon record, whereupon he Suggested that it should be recorded. Grantee a en him said deed to be recorded after this the grantor died, and said deed was found among his | Papers unrecorded, by defendant, Feadail, rr jsexecntor. The last will of satd ntor, executed after the execution and delivery of said deed, and after the same had been hand- ed to him to be recorded. shows that he made specific devises of all his property, and no mention is made of property conveyed b the deed claimed by plaintiif in the will. The court below made a decree that the deed be delivered to complainant, and this decree is affirmed. ANOTHER MECHANIC'S LIEN CASE. To-day, the case of W. G. Phillips agt. B F. Gilbert, Horace Boughton, W. Bowen Moore and the Connecticut General Life In- shrance company was takenup The billin this case was filed June 11, isiJ, and states that Phillips made a contract with Gilbert to furnish materials for and buill six houses for Gilbert on lots 123 to 128 and part 12), in in Washington city, of which Gilbert is the owuer, for which Gilbert agreed to pay the sum of $52,200, being ‘$5 100 for each of two houses, and $5,200 for each of four houses, t> be paid as the work Procresved:; that in pursuance of the contract *billips had furnished material and done work on the said houses of the value ufider contract of $16,000, on which theiris to be credited for money paid and property con- veyed, $11,000, leaving about €5.000 due for said materials and work. That Phillips, on 23d May, 1872, filed in the office of the clerk of this court a noticeoflein. That in Decem- ber. 1872, Gilbert and wife conveyed the lots to Boughton and Moore,and they, after mak. ing, 2 new subdivision on February 1, 1573, conveyed the six lots to E. W. Parsons and Robert E. Day, ‘to secure the Connecticut General Life Insurance Company $6,000 on each lot. The bill asked for the sale of the property and payment of hisclaim. sh, on the 25th of June, } filed an undertak- ing to pay any judgment that might be ren- dered on account of the claim. On Septem- ber 9ih Gilbert answered, denying that tae complainant had done work and furnished materials of the value claimed by him, and alleging that complainant's work was not worth over $11,009, and that he had been paid more than that amount; admitting the ling of the notice of lien, but averring that the same is insufficient, unlawful, and void, because the claim Js made against the houses in gross without stating the amount due ou each house, for which objection, on Septem- ber 9, 1873, the defendants, Boughton and Moore, filed a demurrer (1) that the bill does not state a case for the relief asked; (2) that the claim for mechanics’ lien set forth in said bill Is Insufficient and utterly void, because the elaira is made in gross upon six separate buildings, situate upon six separate lots of ground, without specificaily setting forth the amouni claimed upon each lot. On Decem- ber 1 the life insurance company answered, admitting the loan of $6,000 on éach house, and slleging that wher: the loan was made 1€ complainant (Phillips) executed and de livered to them ‘a release of said lots from the operation of the lien, and on the faith of | the release they made the loan to Bougaton and Moore, and say that Phillips ougut tobe estopped from proceeding on the lien. On December 24, Gilbert filed an amended answer, stating that he was informed and believed that complainant in writing had discharged and released said lien in Janua- ry and that he is advised the complain- ant having released his claim forelien can have no relief in equity, ag he has an ade- quate remedy at law. “The ease was set for hearing at Special Term on the bill, an- ®wers, demurrer, and proof, and on April 30, after argument by counsel, the court , i an order direct issues io be tried - cuit court as follows: 1. Whether the defen- dant, Gilbert, was indebted to Paillips for the work cene and materials furnished for seid houses, and included in said not lien. 2. How much was due from said Gilbert to Phillips for work done and materials farn- ished for said houses included in said notice of lien, exclusive of all set-offs and claims by | Way ofrecoupment.

It was a flood-height. A’ footbridge crosses it. Twosmall boys by the name of Casey (brothers) were on the bridge. One of them, while playing in the water, jost his balance and fell in on the upper side, and was in- staptly swept under the bridge. His little brother, with great nerve and judgment, took position and seized him by the hair of the head as he emerged on the other side, and thus pulled him out and sayed him from drowning.

FowLe a Victim oF Four | PLay.—Inasmuch as all sorts of rumors and misstatements are in circulation in regant to the trouble in which Captain Fowle has fallen, we deem it best to give the true his- tory. "When he was selected to manage the Montpelier lottery, with the purpose of try- | ing to revive {t, and secure its further ran- ning on asafe basis, and with the laudabie view, as it was stated, of returning their money to the ticket-hoiders, it was deemed best to convert the money then in bank Into bonds, that it might not be lying idle. Tuis was done, and the funds, except such as were required for current expenses, 10 wit, 28,000, were Invested iu 3-65 District bonds, ata low and safe figure. Burke & Herbert were requested lo take charge of these, but, on their informing Captain Fowle that they could not be re sponeiti Stolen, he concluded to keep them in his own posseseion, and unfortunately took them in traak to Ricimond, tll he could advise h the directors. Ti ere was his mistake, bere a month, when,on the Ist of Jaouary, he feli in with Judge George Stevens, of Nelson county, and subsequently with one George Hill, a professional bler. He drank ehampagne with Sw lafter that has a most confused recoilec- tion of what happened till he realized the fact that his bonds were gone. He e graphed to his friends, Mr. Alexander Hanter and Mr.T. J. Beckham, and th Iiehmond, removed Mr. Fowle. still under the intinence of the s w lt they put on him, and the former obtained $3.00) of the > was bonds from Stevens, aud the latter $1,000 ia money from Hill. Thus the matter stands. Judge Stevens has resigned his office, and it is not known whether the legislature or the Montpelier Association proj to take any action in the case. Mr. Fowle himself wiil take none, his friends having given that pledge, on receiving the money. His misfor- Lune is deeply deplored here.—[Sen‘inel, 20th. STRAN Conbvuct.—The friends of Mr. herwoo!, who kept a grocery store on the correr of Princess and Columbus streets, and who was also a partner in the firm of Johnson & Sherwood, were much Surprised and grieved to-day to hear that he had drawn all the money to the credit of that firm in the bank, and £200 more, amounting altogether to about $600, and gone to Dau- ville, leaving a letter addressed to Mr. Scho- fleld, telling him to settle up his business, as he was tired of carrying it on any longer. His family knew he was going away, and bis destination, and expect him back.’ He left property more th: enough to pay all his debts, and bis condnet Is inexplicable. AMPUTATION.—Mr. John Hawxhurst, the injury to whose foot by a saw was brictly mentioned yesterday, had the injured mem- ber amputated this ‘morning by Dr. Lewis, assisted by Drs. Gibson and E. A.

ABbovurT MUSICAL BoXEs.—At times when business is dull, or when losses and disap. ointments of various kinds make life a purden, we look around us for something that shall keep of exnt or sootne the troubled mind, and sometimes we find it no easy matter to meet with the charmer who bas the power to “drive dull care away.” Such & magician has, however, been pro- vided lately in the form of @ musical box, Which, without any trouble on the part of the possessor, will perform the duties which atall times have been asked from the musi- cian by those who have been vexed by a melancholy if not an evil spirit. Mr. J. T. Heller, of Berng, Switzerland, has brought this instrument to the highest degree of perfection. At the Exhibition of Nienna, where Mr, Heller obtained the Medal of Merit for his musical boxes, they caused the greatest sensation; their richness of tove, and the great variety of airs played by them, made them one of the great centers of attraction, and excited the admiration of all who could be ‘“‘moyed by concord of sweet sounds.” They have been introduced into several large hotels, and have proved highly serviceable in ministering to the en- joyment of the visitors. Few things could be more sultable for a present to those by whom we desire to be remembered than one of these instruments. Such a gift would not be likely fo be lald aside and forgotten, bat often called upon to raise its tuneful voice it would not fail each time to remind its possessors of those from whom it had been received. Mr. Heller’s musical boxes are sent to all parts of the world direct from the manufac- tory. Illustrated catalogues with the prices are forwarded gratis to those applying for them, and the smallest orders receive prompt attention. 20,253 ——— For THROAT DISEASES and Affections of the Cilest, *\ Brown's Bronchial Troches” are of value.
