f . . -4 ' 1 An interesting suit for damages ha 3 just been in the (Circuit Court. Winifred Mnlcnhy sues Jam.fr> F. Givens for •The plaihtilT? complafet alleges that oh tho2dth day of last January Mrs. Bfttkahtvittad Michael, came to town from their .jplace, six miles distant, in a sleigh. That ivhile in town Givens unlawfully sold liquor to Mulcaiiy until he v'as crazy drunk. That while on“fheif wky“tiOTn e the team vtoc allowed to run away, on account ol the drunkenness, aud tliat the sleigh was upset and Mr. and Mrs. Mulcaiiy seriously hurt. Mrs. Mulcahy asks for 15500 as a recom'-pc-nse for her own personal injuries/ and for §2,000 for her husband’s injuries; which last, it is alleged, are of such a character as to forever disqualify him from doing anything towards his own and his wife’s support;

We intencf to give our “sporting editor” the bounce iFire ever gives us another itchn so crooked as was the account of the wrestling iu the issue of two weeks ago. Lagt week we had to fix up matters for Milt Makeever, and now comes Joe Paxton, whom we stated was downed by Young Iliff, and, claims that lie, the said Joe, is now a sober married man, the head of a family, and that he no longer indulges in so undignified a practice as wrestling iu public. It was Joe’s twin brother, John, who did the wrestling. In passing, we wish to remark that in case if we do connect the wrong man’s name with a wrestling match hereafter, we shall take care to say that he downed the other man, instead of being downed himself, and in that case \ve are disposed to think that we shall be much less likely to be called on to made corrections.
