This, it seems, is a mistake. An inter esting decision Teas made last week, by Justice Sanford, at Newark; ji. J., in a..<nvil anil One man sued another for the paymentfor the board of his wife fur sixteen months at six dollars a month. The defendant set op that that be bad advertised his wife, and giveu public notioe that he would pay no debts of her contracting. The justice decided that while this might serve as a warning, it was no legal way of getting clear of lhawife’s liabilities—-that the husband, in' the eyes of the law, was liable for the wife’s debts, so long as rite continued snob. Judgment *war accordingly given for the plaintiff in the full - oach.mnoticedetersothersfrom jgw-' mg credit to a wife so adrertiseed, ’does It; Aunoapt to anything. .

We are not disposed ip question the legality of the decision when applied to such cases as are men tinned in the last sentence of the ex tract quoted, but we think there are cases in which it would not be just. We re member a case which occurred in this, place hot long since, in which such a de- s cision would, we believe, be entirely wrong. A woman who had nothing but tyro children, formed a matrimonial alii, ance with a man who possessed a little property in his own name, which, we feel sure, could have been the only charm he possessed. After living with him some two Weeks, she deserted bis bed and board,-but continued to make purchases for herself and . children on his account. It would seem that she had njarried him lor the sin gle purpose'of making him responsible for her debts, and that she did not intend to live with hitn. He complained of her leaving his bed-jjwt ai a time when a bed- was most needed,..and very natural ly refused to pay bills of her contracting, unless she Would return to him.. As has been the custom heretofore, he advertised her, and we believe that, were he to be sued for debts of her contracting since the date of the publication of the caution to the public, and a decision as above to he given,it would be unjust, although it might be legal. We believe women marry men, as often as men advertise their wives, from bad motives] and that a decision which would be right in one case would be wrong in another $ consequently the decision aboye should not bo considered unsettling the question of a husband's liability for ! his wife’s debts. Letter from Harrisburg. ChrrtspontUn ce »f the Tribune. Habbisbubo, Jan. 31, 1860. A long array if petitions rolled in again to day, on divers subjects—many of which the au gust committees will never do the honor of open ing, especially those asking for the abolition-of the office,of County Superintendent, and Ujose asking for the passage pf an unconstitutional “personal liberty” bill. I-have heard of a scheme on foot for the for mation of A new county.out of parta of C/iqpbria, Clearfield, Huntingdon, Centre, and Biair,-to be called Logan, and Tyrone City tg be the county seat. The .whole thing looks exceedingly nice mapped but to suit those who are pecuniarily interested, andthere is no doubt but the town ships proposed-" to lie taken for this purpose wottldibm avery j beat little couuty—but, will the counties thus. to be curtailed of their fair proportions, submit to without a kick, at least ? Blair'Won’t I know, for it is conceded thet this (munty rn already small enough. But where is the use of talking?—they could not carve out a hew county that would meet the re quisition of the late amendment to the Consti tution. . To-day the Committee on Vice and Immorality reported a bill entitled an “An Act to prevent recovery for the sale of adulterated liquors.”— This is a wholesome law. A .case was in L|ncaster last fall, in which a fiquor dealer tried ttT recoverby law for a. number of barrels of VOIJ Eye.” . The: defendant proved the “old rye” to have been nothing jbut strychnine torn juice, and so the plaintiff failed to get a verdict This .action was tried ftt common lajr- What is : noW“ proposed is a special law to meet the case at .opoq, and will.be a good ope—providing it will not, Hke only too many others, be a dead letter upon pur .statute hooks.

Tbe young man says tbe experience of that night has taught him a lesson which temperance lectures never could. Wrestling with an Elephant. 5 A rather curious scene occurred in Philadel phia, on Monday during tbe perfor mance iu tbe menage tie. A young man, who bad for some time, been carefully observing tbe monster elephant, determined, like a fighting gladiator of old, to try the strength of tbe huge bulk ot flesh with his own. There is at the end of the elephant’s tusks, which are of largo sire, an iron rod, binding one tusk to tbe other Our hero seized hold of this, and leaned his whole weight upon it. The elephant not altogether liking this sort of treatment, determined fur b i part to punish bis antagonist. He raised bis great head aloft, and the young fellow w*B swung from the groun 1 until he almost touched the canvass covering, and was no doubt much higher than bis most wjld ambition ever carried him. The animal repeated this, and a second time he descended to the ground, when the ele phant, perhaps thinking it best to temperjus tice with mercy, wrapped bis trunk round the hapless and now thoroughly bumbled youth, ami very unceremoniously laid him in the mud that overspread the floor. The wrestle was en ded, the elephant coming off the victor, while his combatant picked himself up. and, amidst the hearty laughter of the spectators, vanished. Heard From. —Adam Kemerer, the default ing and absconding Millville' Constable, return ed to, the home of bis father, in, Westmoreland county, some week or two ago. Soon after his return, he wiute x to his wife at this place, re questing lier to come to him, and telling her tlmt he was the victim of misplaced confidence. Ills story is, that while on his way to Blair county to execute a warrant, ho fell in with severa! Englishmen, who induced him to accom pany them to Canada. Alter his arrival there, his new friends further induced him to try bis band nt a little gauie of cards. Being but a novice in the tricks of the game, his companions always managed to hold the best bauds, and fi nally •• sewed him up.’’ lu short, they cheated him out of all his money, not leaving him enough to come home with. Ho also says be wrote to his wife from Canada, informing her of his whereabouts nud misfortune, but so fur as we cun leuru no such letter was ever received by her. This, however, is his story, and we give him the benefit of it without comment.— Our readers, who are ncq-iinted witn the cir cumstances of his disappearance, can form their own opinion as to its probability. His wife has complied with his request, and is now with him in Westmoreland county. —Johnstown Tribune. A Respectable Scoundrel. A clerk, or salesman, in the large mercantile establishment of Wood, Murrell & Co., Johnstown, named Stephen G. Evans, was detected und arrested, s nue two weeks ago, while on a wedding tour in Philadelphia, for robbing the Company of u considerable sum of money. It is not known to what extent he carried his thefts, as he was a very fast young man, but the amount of nl ie teen hundred dollars was traced to him—thir teen hundred of which he was forced to dis gorge, and his note taken for the balance, when he was permitted to depart. ‘-SteVe,” snys the Echo , “ played the respectable so well, and assumed so many winning ways, as to enable him to captivate and marry one of the gayest of our gay boiles—the daughter of one of our most worthy and respectable citizens. The gay young buck was too respectably connected, nud tiie amount stolen was too large, to justify a prose cution. it is only when a wretched, destitute urchin purloins a small sum, or when some poor man or woman steals n hum fur a famished family, that a prosecution and punisbmenpis deemed necessary." Mr. D. W. Roy, editor of the Vicksburg Shn, was shot deat|, last week, by Daniel ,S. Shepherd. The latter was employed as book keeper in the Sun office. Mr. Roy held the of fice of collector of the port at Vicksburg, and entrusted all his business to Shepherd. While Shephard was on his bridal tour, a few weeks since, Mr Key caused him to be arrested, in New Om-nns. on a charge of'embezzlement.— Shepherd was released on a writ of habeas cor pus. and, immediately proceeding to Vicksburg, demanded an investigutiou. He was examined and acquitted. Health Rules.— The celebrated Abemelhy’s rules for the preservation of health were simply tlie following ; "Keep the feet warm. the head cool and the bowels 'hpen,” The Indians understand fully the necessity of protecting the feet; and although ninny tribes dressed so scantily as to appear almost naked, yet their feet Were guard ed by well used mocassins. And when they re pose in their wigwams they always lie down with their feet towards the fire. When travelling and obliged to encamp in the open air, they dig a hole in the ground, *sn which they build a fire, and then lie down in a circle, and each one ban "a his feet and aud ankles in the hole. 'Fast Tbavelliks.— On Tuesday evening, the 1 24 th uU., says the Brpokville Jeffersonian, a number of invitation cards were received by the 1 printers of this piece, to attend a banquet andM bail in Pittsburg, oifthe 17th of January, the I birth-day of Benjamin Franklin. As a matter j of course no one attended, as the invitations I were received seven day* after the ball took i place.

In this view of the case, we do not know how the humand and benevolent can do an action more in accor dance with their philanthropise views, than by calling the attention of their afflicted friends and acquaintances to the fact, that Dr. Situ S. Hanoi, of 103 Baltimore street. Bal timore, M.

Among those who have been perma nently cured, we might mention a member of the family of James H. Beadle, Huntsville, Alabama; Mr. M. P. Sledge, Cabin Point, Surry county, Va.. and Mr. W. P. Ligou, Grenada, Mississippi.. We might go on enumerating a number of others, until we had entirely filled up this col umn of our paper; but we think wa have\*aW sufficient to satisfy every person that the subject under consideration is one of vital importance to every one.
