The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger suy : The House |Judiciury Committee have agreed to adhere to the House joint resolu tion to amend the Constitution on suffrage us heretofore reported by Mr. Boutwell. aud the House will insist on Its resolution. The fcouate is equally determined on its own proposition, and there is a dead-lock be tween the two Houses on the suffrage amendment, tbs difference being that the House gives the negro the right to vote upon the same footing as tho white citizens, leav ing to tho States the right of fixing tho qual ifications of voters, whilst the Senate insists on giving the negro the right to hold office, .and forbids property and religious qualifi cations. Neither House is inclined to give way or compromise, and the suffrage amendment is regarded,ns a failure at this session. TIPS TjAJN CASTER WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 534, 1869.

Verdict in favor of plaintiff. Iliesterand Brubaker for plaintiff'; J. B. Am wake and Kline for defendant. A synopsis of the following case tried during last week’s session of Common Pleas Court. J udges Long and Libhart pres ent—the former presiding—has already been published. But as the case involves the discussion of “ Telegraph Law,” a subject of practical importance to our business men, the following more elaborate report has been prepared : • D. K. Wolf A Co,, vs. The Western Union Telegraph Company. Action brought to recover damages for failure of defendants to deliver a telegram. On the 22d day of October, 18GJ, the plain tiff presented a telegram at the office of the defendant, in this city, for transmission to J, B. Griilen A Co., Buffalo, N. Y. The message was written by plaintiff on one of the blanks issued by defendant to their customers, on which were printed eertuin conditions aud stipulations, and signed by plaintiff'. Among the printed conditions were the following: “ It is agreed between the sender of the following message and the Company, that said Company shall not bo liable for mis takes or dolays in the transmission or tie livery, or non-delivery, of any uurepealed message beyond the amount received for sendiiu: tho same ; nor for mistakes or do lays in the transmission or delivery, or for nondelivery of any repeuled message be yond fifty times the sum received for send ing tho game, unless specially insured.” ‘•The Company will not bo liable for dam ages in any caso where the claim is not presented iu writing within sixty days after sending the message.” The pluintiff paid the fees fur sending the message, but did not order it to be repeated, nor did he pay for repeating. The message was forthwith sent from ifio office in this city to Buffalo, by way of the City ot Phil adelphia, but it was never received by Grif fon A Co., at Buffalo, to wbotn it was di rected. The questions raised at tho trial of tho case appear from tho points which were presented to the Court by the plaintiff und defendant, and the answers of the Court to said points: I’LAlNTll’l’s' POINTS. I, The plaintiff’s are entitled to recover in this case, ovi*u though the telegram to be sent wus not repeated, and it matters noth ing that plaintiff produced no proof that a statement or bill of their claim was pre sented in compliance with written condi tions. 2. Plaintiff's having prepuid the charge to Buffalo whore defendants line extended, and having boon sent no further than Phil adelphia, and no reason having been as signed by defendant wherefore said message was not sent to Grifflu A' Co., such failure presents a case of gross nogligence against the Company in performing its undertaking and in consequent llalrility to plaintiff for such dumage as plaintiffs hnd sustained. 3. The telegram never having been sent to Buffalo, nor delivered there to Griffin A Co., tho written conditions or exceptions to order or telegram of Oct. 23d, 13(3(1, do not apply. 4. Tho mensuvo of damages is Ihe differ ence of tho value of the Hour nt which and for which plaintiffs would have purchased tho flour, had tho telegram in question been sent and delivered, nnd the price plaintiffs actually paid or had to pay for the same whim the name was purchased of them, with interest on such differences. defendants’ points, ]. Telegruph companies are not common curriers, but bailees for hire—bailees per forming through their agents work for their employees according to certain rules and regulations, which under the law they have a right to make. 2. If they are common carriers, they are sui gcneriSr and if they are to be treated as having liabilities imposed by law in addi tion to those arising from their contracts the law must lirst heur what functions nnd services they promise to perform. The Company having undertaken a new busi ness must be permitted to say wbat things are necessary to make it certain that a per son in Buffalo shall receive the mental im pression intended by a person in Lancaster. 3. Common carriers nave a right to limit their liabilities—subject to the qualifica tion that they will not be protected from the consequences of gross negligence, and' under the laws of Pennsylvania the burden of proof of negligence lies in the plaintiffs. 4 The notice contained on the paper upon which the message was written is sufficient notice to limit the liability of the defen dant in this case. By writing tho message under it and signing and delivering the same for transmission, the plilntiffaccepted the proposition whether he read it or not, and it became an agreement binding upon the defendant only according to its speolflc terms or conditions. 5. A Telegraph Company may reasonably require that for tho purpose of avoiding errors the message shall be repeated, or that the Company shall not be liable for any mistakes or delays in the transmission or delivery or for non-delivery of any unre peated message beyondtheamonnt received for sending the same, and inasmuch as the plaintiffs had notice that such repetition was necessary to secure the delivery of their message, and failed to take the proper Bteps to have the same repeated, they cannot re cover in this case, and the verdict of the Jury must be for defendant. 6. The plaintiffs did not present their claim tor damages in wriliog within sixty days after sending the message as provided in the contract, therefore they cannot re cover and the verdict of the jury must be for the defendant. 7. Under ail the evidence in the cate, the plaintiff cannot recover, »nd the verdict of the jury must bo for the defendant. 8. Under the contract as set lorth in the printed conditions, the amount of damages which could, under any circumstances con nected with this case be recovered by the plaintiffs, is limited to fifty times the sum paid by them to defendant—that is the sum of#K>. The Court, after stating the facts of the case, instructed the jury that tbe questions j raised in the case were entirely questions ■ of law, and referred to the answers to the points of plaintiffs and defendant for the ; views of the court upon the law of the case. The answers to the points were as follows: , TO PLAINTIFFS’ POINTS Ist. “This point is answered in oar reply to the defendant’s Gtb and 7th points.’’ 2d. “According to the facts set forth in this point the defendant would, in our view of the law, oe guilty of gross negligence and liable to such damages as plaiutiff has sus tained, unless he has failed by his laches or neglect to give notice to the defendant ofhls damages within the time agreed upon and consented to by him.” 3-1. “This we shall answer in our response to the defondant’s G:h and 7th proposi tions.” 4th. “If the plaintiffs can recover, the rule herein set forth would be the correct stand ard by which to measure the damages sus tained by them.” TO DEFENDANTS’ POINTS, Ist. “ Telegraph Companies, it not com mon carriers, are supposed to be closely allied to them as regards their responsibili ties and liabilites. and in performing their functions, they cannot adopt rules which would be inconsistent with the rules of law established for the protection of those by whom they may bo employed to transmit messages. ” 2d. ” This is correct, when applied to the regular transmission of telegrams, but would not beapplicablo, wepreaume, where the Company was guilty of gross negli gence.” 3rd. “ Answered in the affirmative.” 4th andoth. “ This would be correct if the teleyrum had been regularly transmitted and with due diligence, but would not be applicable to n case of gross negligence ” (3th and 7th. “ In the notice aunexod to the order for the issuiug of the telegram uro contained certain conditions, upon which the Company agree to transmit the com munication. Tht'.so conditions or agree ments were signed by the plaintiffs in this case, when he lett his order to be transmitted to Buffalo. Ho having sign ed these conditions it is reasonable to presume that be was awaro of them, and al though most of them are inapplicable to this case if the defendants were guilty of gross negligence, yet there is one by which we think he is bound. We allude to that brunch of the terms wherein the company declare that they will not be liable for uny damages in any case where the claim Is not presented in writing within sixty days of the sending oflho tnesMigo. According to our view it was incumbent upon the pluintiff-j to show and prove that lie had gfvt-n such notice, and having tailed to do so. they cannot re cover,.and your verdict should bo for the defendant.” sib. liven if plaintiffs could legally ru over, wo doubt whether, under ull the cir eumstunce.s and tlm conditions to which they subscribed, damages should bo given to a greater amount Until $5)O ; but it'our answer to the bill and 7th poiuts of the de fendant be correct, this answer is imma terial.” Thu jury rendered their vordict for iho defendant.

Staui.k Buiinkd.—'The stable belonging to Mrs. Sarah Hurford, situated on the al ley back of her residence in East Orange street, was almost entirely destroyed hv fire last evening, The fire was doubtless the work ot an incendiary as we are in formed by parties who urrivedSit the stable shortly alter tho fire was first seen that the door was standing open, indicating that the incendiary had entered aud set fire to tho building and then made an hasty exit out of the door. Tho lire broke out about St o’clock, and, on account of the darkness of the night, for a time made quite a bright light. There was some wood stored in the stable but it contained no articles of any considerable value. The building was a log structure, and was not insured. The loss is probably $75. The firemen, not withstanding the disagreeable weather, were promptly on hand, and by their ex ertions soon subdued and prevented the spread of the llames. Fires in (’oi.rMnrA.— The states that ou Suudtiy evening directly after the church es had been called, a lire broke out in a frame stable belonging to the Pino Creek and Seven Stars hotels, owned respectively by Cornelius Tyson ami P. S. McTague, situated on Front street, between Union and Perry streets, entirely consuming the building ami contents. The firemen wore promptly on hand ; “ YouDg America,” a compuny composed of boys, with a crank engine, ran to the river, fillodjheir engine, and were loudly cheered when they threw the first stream on the lire. The fire is sup posed in he (he work of an incendiary. ’On Monday, a little before one o’clock, nur citizens were aroused by the cry of lire, which soon brought forth our fire depart ment and u large number of people. The lire originated in an unoccupied building on Commerce street, belonging to D. L. Baumgardner,and known as the rope-walk. The building was entirely consumed ; loss trilling. An attempt was also made to fire the Sus quehanna Planing Mill but a watchman trightoned the party off’. Skuioum Accident.—Oll Saturday morn ing last, whilst Ed. N. Smith, son of K. K.

It seems that as they were passing under the railroad bridge, below the round-house, the Lancaster train, which leaves this place at 8:30 A. M., passed oyer, frightening their horseß, which be coming unmanageble threw both parties mu on the track of the .Columbia A Port Deposit Railroad ; tho former striking his chin on a rail, breaking both jaws, cutting his face and head severely, besides receiv ing other bndil}’ injuries.

The deceased, who was in moderate circumstances, was of temperate and industrious habits, and the only cause assigned for taking his own life is the fact that he was fearfulofiosicgsome money which he had invested.

Prospects of the Lumijer Trade.— Our exchanges from up tho river state that tbe recent warm weather indicates an early rise of tho Susquehanna and its tributaries. These lattorare already in most instances free from ice, and the lumbermen along them are busy in getting their sawed him her, square timber and logs ready to final down the river to market. From present appearances there will be a much larger amount of lumber run down the Susque hanna this spring than there has been in any one season since tbe completion of the railroad. This is owing in part to the ex orbitant rates charged on local freights, and to the fact that last fall when tbe lumber men desired cars to ship their lumber to market before tho winter set in, they could not be obtained. “Every Saturday !”—“ Every Satur day.” ns it* title indicates, Is a Journal of Choice Reading, selected from Foreign Cur rent Literature, published every Saturday, It is invariably filled with most entertain ing and interesting reading matter, and is an almost indispensable companion either for borne or travel.

C. THOMPSON A 4 0., feb 20 4w) ISO Federal .Street, Boston, Mass. I want to rouse each sleepy bead, Who stands upon ihe brink, Where yawning gulls disclose tbo dead, Who might, but did not, think, I want to warn the living ones Who'bllndly grope along. Yo lathers, daughters, mothers, sous, What perils round you throng ! Look out, my reader, are you free, (Jr do you wear the mark ? Most all are blind Hnd cannot see, Yea, groping In the dark. Catarrh, a demon In the bead, Consumption Is its sou; Kdls hosts, yea, oouiHlo<s million*, dead, Perhaps yc.u may be one. That backlog, hawking, spilling, »hows, Catarrh aEects your dead, Matter and slime lu throat oruose, Runs down your throat instead. Your lungs and liver soon will show, Consumption has its birth “ . Catarrh, Us sire, will feed It too, 'Till you reiuru to earth. If colds affect your head and Annihilator buy ; Now dou't forget what I have wrote, Or think this subject dry. Wolcott’s Annihilator cures Catarrh— the demon files; It saves the lungs, good health insures. And Catarrh quickly dies,] I want to gratify my friends, Who wish to understand About Pain Paint, Us use, Its ends, And why its-greut demand. I want to show you, plain as day, Why Pain Paint stopratTpain, That you may never have to say “I’lnottry palntagaiu.” Pain Paint will cool but never stain ; Pumps inflammation out; ’Tin harmless on the brnast or brain, A trial stops all doubt. lnflammation leaves the frame, All pain will cease at once; Remove the cause. Tls all the same; None doubts unless a ounce. The pores will ope and drink Pain Paint 1 Absorbents Oil with ease; * ’ Restores the weak, the sick, the faint Toe greatest skeptic please. ’ , Evaporation cools the placo As Inthunmalion files; Hoi blood at tbe absorbent’s base Makes Paint In vapor rise. Tls thus Pain Paint removes all doubt Removes tbe very cause By pumping Inflammation out; On this we rest our cause. WolcoU's Pain Paint Is sold at all Drug Stores; also, Wolcotts Annihilator, for the cure 01 Catarrh and Colds In the head. Sent by Express on receipt of tbe money, at 181 Chatham Square, N. Y. R. L.
