Gen, Buvler, on bis arrival, said the first ques- Hon to be settied was whether the communtea- tens maée to Mr. Riddle by plaintiff are to be = ec out; and he asked if counsel ins’ Mr. Peter said the point was so important to the bar and public that he preferred to re- serve his exception. ‘The court said that he would hold that all communications between counsel aad client, save those which were to be communicated t) Mr. Cameron, came within the rule, and were Proseribed by the law; and he would instruct bee ony lo disregard the testimony to tex. Gen. Butler remarked that there was a ques- tion whether when the comiaunica‘ions were made the relation of client and counsel existed. He quoted from an Ohio case, and was pro- ceeding when Judge Cartter intimated that he would lixe to bear from the other side. SHARP PASSAGR BETWEEN GEN. BUTLER AND MR. PETER. Mr. Peter said that he did not wish to be led into a discussion of states’ rights, and if the battles of Big Bethel and Fort Fisher were to be fought over again, he did not know wien the exd of the case would be reached. He had beea taught from his youth to respect the highest tribunal in the land, and he claimed that the Supreme Court of the United states had settled this point. The Court intimated that how little matter of fact there might be about this case, there was much law, and he wished to hear It. Gen. Butler said that he had seen no occasion to bring in any vulgar allusions, or aay need to refer to events in his public life. He was per- feetly willing to let his country judge of his acts in connection with the events mentioned tn con- trast with the experience of the gentleman in the Old Capitol prison as a traitor. Mr. Peter protested against the use of the word vulgar, and he hurled it back with coa- tempt. G ep, Butler replied that when allusions were made to events outside of the case for the pur- of belittling a party, it was vulgar. He Enew the full meaning of the word, and so used it, and would stand by it. Gen. Butier resumed argument. Tie Court decided to adhere to his former ruling, saying he would rule out the communi- cations with the exception or those which were to be given to Mr. Cameron. GEN. BUTLER ASKS A NON-SUT Gen. Butler asked for a non-sult, say where there ts no conflict of testime was all one way the court could apply t aud direct a verdict. The receipts were not disputed er challenged and they were a bar ty the aciion. He read a number of authorities and the receipt “in full,” which she said she | signed with a mental reservation. The law Says that this is a fraud; that there can be no mental reservation, and the right of the court to direct the jury is undisputed. He cited the ease of Susan B. Anthony for illegal voting, where Judge Hunt (of the Supreme Court of tue United States) not only directed the jury but refused to let her make a defence. The court sald there was no doubt on this subject. General Butler said that here was a full re- lease given, after months of negotiation, Mr. Cameron for bey Laced gnc s Leper ee wo- Ikan, agreeing to pay her to get rid o mass orflthe He “wanted to. get rid of her, that neither be nor his family should again hear of her. And in order that he might hear no more of “teads bone tea,” and that there migbt be ‘ace, he consented to pay a thousand dollars. it was with the understanding that she should not again trouble him, that she took the money, Signing the receipt but twenty-four days be- fore bring this suit, “Received of A. G. Rid- dle of $1,000, in full for all claims on Simon Cameron.” Mr. Peter said they eertatily did not agree . Peter ey CFI no’ as to the facts, for Mrs. Oliver had expressiy said the payment was not made for the breach of promise, aud Mr. Riddle had sald there was hone. ‘The court suggested that the evidence shoulda be referred to. MR. DARNIELLE’S POINT. Mr. Darnieile, for the plaintiff, contenacd = the oo Coir pe tenet teat and argued this point at some length, citing from the rules of this court on the subject. The court remarked that he had no doubt as to his pover to withdraw the case, but he wished to know aboutthe receipt. If thestate- ments laid down in the receipt were not contro- verted he should hold it a bar to this action. A recess was taken, during which the room became well filled. AFTER RECESS. On reassembiing the Court said he wished to know where the testimony left these receipts. Mr. Toney said if the motion was for a non Suit he desired to submit some authority. Mr. Butler.—We ask the Court to direct a ver- dict. A non sult is taken when the party has @ case or can make one Mr. Toney then said {f the motion was to instruct the jury it should not be granted, for Mr. Riddle had testified that the complaint ‘Was seduction and not breach of promise. Mr. Butler argued that the receipt included pei dae a that Mr. Cameron was destrous of closing all relations Le had with the woman; that all the claim she had then was the baby. and the marriage was thought of afterwards. After further del the court sald that if there was gory be! ea to act uy) would not take case fromthem. The re- ceipt was ipo a enough to cover all unless there was a rstanding, in rebuttal she testified that the money was received to pay expenses of her sickness; and shadowy as this Ipay seem, yet it was a question that the jury may debate over. He uniformly for fifteen resumed that the jury would not and would not take this case m he es District Government Affairs.

And this is the effectual method of putting an end to the ca bage butterfly and the destruction wrought by its slug progény. But you must catch the butterfly kill it, and the question now is, how is this to be Made feasible? Some ingentousartisan ere this Should have contrived an {nstrameat at small Cost to catch these Insects,and have had them tor sale all over the country. The insect wiil mit one to apnroach within four or five feet without frightening them, then a light long handled scoop-net would do the business of can- turing them very easily. Perhaps two nets to close ‘readily with long handles operating on the principle of blacksinith tongs would be a better implement. But something should be constructed to catch them, and the work of de- struction should be commenced by ali cabvaze growers at the first approach of the battertlie- next spring, and be vigorousiy prosecutei through the season, if need be.

The Paris correspondent of the Boston Cour i referring to his recovery from a dangerous ili- hess, says: 1 mention this illness that I may tet! you how easily I was cured. I was bent doub‘e bt I could not breathe. My physiclan ordered me to take a flatiron and heat It as hot as I could bear, put a double fold of flannel on the painful part, and move the fron to and fro on the flan- hel. Iwas cured by enchantment. My doctor told me that some time since a professor in one of our colleges, after suffering some days beuralgia in the head, which he him: tried to cure, sent for the former, who p @ hot flatiron. The next time the doctor profeesur the latter exclaimed with mock ange; “I realy shall not pay you any fee! what! 1 had no soon applied the heated tron tomy heud th instanuy all pain vanished! That is a3 simy as gocd-day; surely you capnot expect a feo fo ity” My E ysiclan was summoned recently to the bedside of a wornan who had neuralgia in both sides, and so violently she alarmed the whole neighborhood by the screams which her intolerable anguish wrung from her. She was taken from ber bed and borne hear the fire. In such severe cases a heated iron is” not energetic enough. He has an iron rod fastened in an ivory handle, He heats this rod to white heat (which causes less pain than red heat) and apples It very slightly to the seat of the pain, first in longitudinal, then in latitudinal lines.’ The application 13 so light that no trace is left but red lines on the epidermis, which are soon effaced. In twenty minutes the woman walked back to bed. and the third day afterwards quitted {t entirely freed from neuralgia, This instrument ts not to be entrusted to awkward hands.

The nearest doctor was sent for. “I can do nothing which will give you immediate relief” The artist 1s a patient of my physician, He told the doctar wiat to do. ‘The latter declined taking the responsibilt- ty of any such violent treatment, “But 1 as- sume all responsibility.” The doctor applied an tron rod beated to white heat, but so awkward- ly that the artist has scars the size of a five- franc piece on his thigh.
