The eiae of CoUiOay tn. Baird, reported in fourth Phitaatlphia Rnimtt. 139, ueeided in tbla oourt, in whloh my brother Ludlow delivered an elaborate And well*considered opinion, seems to be the only re ported decision in this State upon the subject. Tw New York, the subject of trade marks has been fieautntlv presented for judiaial consideration, and in &e deeisioDs of the courts of that State and of the Tg». g Hmh tribunals,with one or two from other States, we find the sources of the Information required for the investigation of the ease before us. It is well settled that a oourt of equity will exer cise its power for the protection of the owner of a trade mark in the exclusive enjoyment of that device or symbol chosen by him to designate hi * goods or manufactures xnd to distinguish them from those of others. Every man has a right to the producU of hw own labor, and is entitled, so to diftinguish them, tost persons dealing in or purchasing: hj» commodities, Kf^S£S*SsSs2 2? (rom tiie tfibrt. of other, who would !°. b * P™““ »sp o 7 hi. enterprise or .kill, and, by inotation de.vor to impose upon the publio and him of the lu»t reward of hia industry. to The adoptSn of a trade mark or device to Indi cts the manufacture or origin of a certain article dora not give any right to the exclusive production of tie article to marktd. Any article of manufacture, ur.less it be protected by a patent, may be made and sold by any person. There is no such thing as an exclusive ngbt to any particular branch of Industry. The only leitiiction is that etch party shall stand upon his own merits, and none shall be permitted by the useiOf marks or symbols to pretend that the goods < fi'ered by him are the products of another.—6 Baiv. 72 Berry vs. Trvtfit; Coffeen re. Brinton; 4 McLean, 616. This rule has even been applied to cases where there was no intentional deception; as where the manufacturer of steel was prohibited from stamping upon his manufacture certain words wbioh he supposed were descriptive of a particular quality of steel, but which were in fact the name of the original manufacturer and indicated his owner ship.—Millington vs. Fox; 3 Myl & Cr. 313. The “trade mark,” to be capable of an exclusive use, must be such as will identify the article to which it is affixed, as that of the person naming it and distinguish it from others. A word which is the name of the article, or indi cates its quality, cannot be so appropriated. Every one has the right to manufaotuie the same article, and to call it by its name or descriptive character. In doing so there is no violation of propriety or of truth, nothing which intrudes upon the distinctive province of others. Singleton vs Bolton, 3 Doug. 293. Canham vs, Jones, 2 Ves. 4* 8., 218. Amiskeag Man. Co. vs. Spear , 2 Sand S. C. It, 599. 17 Barb. 608. 'Were It otherwise, monopolies might be created which would be destructive of the freedom of trade and restrictive of The free exercise of talent. The name of an article cannot become the exclu sive piuperiy of the maker, especially if that artiele la a known substance or production. It oouid not be supposed that the exclusive right to prepare the extract of a particular flower or of a medioinal bark could be obtained merely by the use of the name of such flower or bark. Oouid it be tolerated that one manufacturer alone should have the right, to make Xhe extract of roses or of Peruvian bark because he adopts tiie name only ? This principle has been elaborately considered In several eases: Amoskeog Man. Co vs. Spear; Stokes tts. Landgraff, 17 Barb . 608; Fttridge vs. fVttlls, 4 Ab bott’S PT if., 144. “In short, n s»y» Judge Duer, in tLe last cited oase, “an exclusive right to use on a table or o«her trade mark ihe appropriate name of a manufactured article exists uuly in those who have an exclusive property in the article itself, and it is not pretended that the plaintiff*or hia firm have any exclusive property in The preparation or compound to which the well sounding name of ‘Brim of a Thousand Floweis 5 has been given. It is only the seductive name that they claim as their exclusive property.** , r „ So, in Stokes vs. Landgraff, it is said: “In ro spcct to words, maiks, or devices which do not .de note the goods or property or particular place of business of ft person, but only the nature, kind or quality of the articles in which he deals, a different rule prevails j no property m such words, marks or devices can tie acquired ** "Whether a word which is not the name of any known substance, but entirely the invention of the party using it, can become so exclusively the “ trade mark” of its inventor as to call for the protection of a court of equity against toe use of the same word, or of another word closely resembling it, by others, seems not fully determined. “It does not seem to me,’* says Lord Laugdale, “tiat a man can acquire a property merely in a Dime ormaik; but whether he can or not, another has no right to use that mark for the purpose of de ception.**—Perryvtt. Tru'fit, 0 Beav 72. This question was considered in the case of Bur* net vs. Photon in the Supreme Oourt of New York, and an Injunction gianteti—but upon the ground that the wold “ Cocoaine, 11 by the plaintiff, was not a word known in the languaee—and that the use of the word “ Cocoinep * which closely imitated the ; trade-m&ik of the plaintiff, must bB presumed to I have bein made for the purpose of inducing the ; public to believe that the article was that of him ! whose trade-mark was thus imitated, and for the - purpose of supplanting him in the good will of his trade or business. Hut even in that oase the judge remarks: “ That no one can appropriate a word in geTieral use at his trade mark, acd restrain others from using that word. Burnett cannot acquire a property in the words gin, wine, brandy, or ale, or in any other word known to the language, ana in common use, to desig nate things or qualities of thing*.’* So ic the case of Wolfe vs Goulard , decided in the Supreme Court of New York, 18 How. Pr. Bp. 64, it was held that the words 1 1 Scheidam Schnapps. l3 as designatseg gin, were simply the proper name of the article solo, and that, though a person who forms a new word to designate an article made by him, which has never been used before, may obtain a right to me such word as against others who attempt to use it for a similar article, that such exclusive right can never be successfully claimed of words in common use previously, as applicable to similar articles. In the present case the plaintiffs claim to have compounded a new perfume, and to have Invented a name for it, to wit: * Extract of Night Blooming Cereus.” They do not claim any exclusive right in the perfume itself. They have thus chosen the name of a rare though wdbknown flower, and claim in the name alone an exclusive light as their “trade mark.” They admit that the name is a deception as far as it is used to indicate the real character of the com pound; that the perfume is no extract from the flower, and that the trade mark is in that respect a pure invention. “The Night Blooming Cereus,” however, exists, a flower well known by that name, which, when firmt introduced to publio notioe, exci ted much attention. An extract may be made from, that flower; any perfumer has the right to make such an extract, and to call it what it is, by the name cf the flower. If this be to, the name of the flower cannot be ap propriated as a trade mark. This seems a clearer case than any of those re ferred to, and the name naed must be classed with “Gin,” •‘Wine,” “Schnapps,” and such other words known to the language and in common use to designate things, or their qualities, in which no ex* elusive right can be acquired. The plaintiffs here make no specifie claim to any thing but to the name. The resemblance of the label used by the defendants to that of the plaintiffs was not pressed, nor indeed could it be, as the re* spective labels are so differeut in color, shape, size, and character, that any one who had seen that of the plaintiff could scarcely mistake the label of the de fendants for it; betides, the most distinctive words upon the defendants’ label are those indicating their name and residence. There was nothing in the case to show that the defendants used any art, by a close imitation of the label, to di'pote of their perfume, under the false pretence of iis being the plaintiff’s. The exclusive right to the name was all that was claimed on the argument, and far the reasons given, we think that 1o this the plaintiffs are not entitled. But another principle which seems well settled stands in the plaintiffs’ way, that is, that equity will not protect a dishonest claim. As an exhibit, the plaintiffs produced an adver tising card, used to give publicity to their new pre paration, upon which card they declare that the new perfume is the extract of the “ Night- Blooming Oereur, distilled from this rare and beautiful flower, from which it takes its name.” It is not pretended that this is true. The perfume is an alcoholic compound, not an extract from the flower. This is a deception, intended to impose upon the public by exciting curiosity to learn the nature of the perfume of the rsre and beautiful flower. It may be that the deception is harmless. The manufactured perfume may be better than the genuine extract would be 5 but still it is a deception, and the plaintiff has no right to expect a court of equity to aid him in carrying it on. Pidding vs. How, 8 Simon, 477. Perry vs. Tru?Ji£, 8 Beav., 66. Flavel vs. Harrison , 19 Eng. L. and Eg., 15. FedrUtae Vs. WeUs, 4 Abb. Pr. Rep., 144. Thus the case stands upon the plaintiff’s own showing. The defendants, by their affidavits, deny fully that the name upon their labels'was used to imitate the plaintiff’s labels, and they show by the affidavit of the lithographer by whom the label was drawn and prepared, that be did not know of the ex istence of the plaintiff's label when he designed and drew that of the defendants. The labels are so little alike, and the name of the defendants so distinctly printed upon theirs, tint, as has already been said.no one purchasing Wright’s Night Blooming Cereus could suppose he was buy ing Phalon’s. It is very manifest that the defendants did not sell their preparation as that of Phalon; they dear ly merited it as tbeir own production, and we have been unable to discover in the case any ground upon which we could properly interfere by injunction. The motion for an iojuaction is dismissed. Supreme Court at Kiel Frlus-Judge Ag- The following case of considerable iutereat to stockholders, and ia face to all interested in stocks, or their transfer, was decided on Saturday by Judge Agnew: Charier B. Dungan and Henry D. Soever vs. John H. Dobnert. This case came up for hearing on a de murrer" to the bill filed, and was argued by Bullitt and Dickson for complainants, and by George W. .Biddle for demurrer. The facts set forth were these: Complainants agreed to-tracefer to the defendant certain stocks in payment of a debt, among them two hundred shares of the Syracuse Gaslight Company, with a reser vation that the defendant “ should pay or transfer to said Dungan and Steever any and sli extra divi dends which may be declared on said two hundred shares of the Syracuse Gaslight Company, either in money or stock, or both, prior to the Ist day of January, 1863; said Dohnert, however, is to retain the regular dividends so declared as his own.” The stock was transferred, and ia November, t 862. the Gaslight Company declared an extra dividend! which was set apart to thestoekholders In this wise: New slock was issued to them at the rate of three* fifths for every share held by each, and the extra -dividend credited upon the new issue at $8 33>£ per share. This gave to the defendant one hundred and twenty shares of the new it sue as his proportion upon which the extra dividend of $8 33 was credited as paid. The effect c»f these transactions was this ■ The defendant being the absolute owner of the old stock, all rights inhering in it became his. The right to the new Issue e.'early inhered in the ownership of the old. Whatever benefit, therefore, oould be de rived from the newisiue, belonged to the defendant, subject only to the reservation in the agreement! What waitlist? It wae “all extra dividerah” de. cl.mi on tbe two hundred share, before the Oral of JanuaiY, 1863, In 11 money or stock, or both,” and these, we have «een, were the exaot sum of $8.33% upon each of the one hundred and twenty shares. V*®* "* re w*ML 26 , thus leaving two-thlrds of each the certificate, “sab ly tte Wrd or dlVeoto*. 1 ttom * lme *° Ume ! a hl ? option, delivered Saturday, affirms both points raised in the demurrer and d el rides, first, that the circumstances ofS2SJI» -S forth’ in the bill pr, .rated no grouU foe “I %t couebt 5 second, that in Fennsyivanla an agreement for the delivery o! stock Dot the subject of •oifio performance by a court of equity. v In disposing of the second point, he says : 11 If the point argued, whether equity will decree a >peelfia performance of a contract for stock were the onlv ■que»tioD,‘it would be doubtful. The Englishea.es cited are unsatisfactory. Before Dunur vs. Al brecht, 12 Simons, 182, decided in 1841, it had been the settled doctrine of chancery that speolfle per formance would not be enforced pf a contract for the sale of stock. _/ Caddre vs. Butter, 1 P. William., 670, and 1 Lead ing Cases in Equity, (40, Ispur vs. Haines, Banbury, 136; Nnttrown vs. Thornton, 10 Veaiy, p. 161; Bax ter vs, Lister, 3 Atkins, 3SI. The esses or Wltby vs. Cottle, and Doloret vs. Botbsehild, 1 Simon Jc. Siew.rt, 174 and 190, deolded In 1823, were not exceptions. Both were deolded upon peculiar features, which, in the opinion of the vice chancellor, prevented the complainant, from .having an adequate remedy at law. ' Tl ' e features of Doloret vi. Botbiohlld umat be noticed, m tbia ease serais to have been file chief authority upon which Dunur ft vs. Albrecht and subsequent eases rested. Kothsohild negotiated the Neapolitan rentes or stocks, and the ease wae put on the ground that the bill prayed for tbe de livery of tbe certificates, and that the plaintiff, not being the original holder of the isrlp, but’the kbabbh only, might not be able to maintain an co tton M lew upon the contract, the title lylngonlyin Butin Dunnrft v«. Albrecht the Ylce-ChancaUnr thought there was a difference betVeeiT pnbUo stocks, snob as three per cents, which could easily be procured in the market and railway sharesj and that as to the latter, specific performance might be enforced. This distinction was reoognized in Oheate vs. Kenward, 3 DeGex, &o. 27. The Master of the Rolls In Pool vs. Middleton; 29, Beavau, 646, was of opinion SDecific performance of stock contract could he enforced, but referred to no authority and tonodtaSSSS’ But in the Oriental Inland Steam Comnanv vs Briggs* 2 Johnson & Ob. K, 625, de eidedln 1861, the Vice-Chancellor manifestly r& ceded, remarking that, “ Independently of these ob servations, I would hesitate muob.in the absenoe of authority, before decreeing specific performance of a contract to take shares, without special grounds (which no doubt may easily exist in particular cases) to show the inadequacy of the remedy at law-” This accords with the view of the law taken in the early cates, and the peculiar grounds of deci sion in Witby vs. Cottle and Doloret vs. Rothschild, l Simons A S.» 174 690. 1 This is also the doctrine of the American cases. The authorities will be found collated in the note to Cuddre vs. Rutter. 1 Leading oases in equity 653; top 766, ed. 1869 by Hare & Wallace. Ia our own State the law is necessarily so, as the jurisdiction Is conferred only “ when a recovery in damages would be an inadequate Temedy.” See, also, MeOwen vb. Remington, 2 Jones, 66. There must be some special eircumstauoe in the case which clearly renders the remedy at law inade quate, as where there is something speolfio in the subject of the contract which cannot be represented in damages, or where the damages are not ascer tainable, owing to the uneertain nature of the sub ject. In an ordinary contract for the sale or transfer oT stock, where there is no fiduciary relation between tee parlies, no peculiar circumstances attending the stock, and no trust declared or arising by operation of law, or other fact in the contract which would make a verdiot for damages an inadequate relief, there is no reason for ipecltioperformanoe other than in every case of a sale of chattel The non-delivery or refusal to transfer can be easily compensated in damages. In the cases before us, not only is there nothin? peculiar or difficult which oannot be compensated in damages, but additionally there is gross want of equity in compelling the defendant to yield un th« two-thirds of the new issue, to the advantage nr which he is entitled, and as to which there was no contract and no offer of indemnity, while the dividend is a measured sum capable of payment with interest and any premium it may brin? as stock. I must therefore sustain the demurrer n». murrer allowed by the court. ± '° Court or Quarter Session*—Judge Ludlow.

At an early hour on Saturday morning, Polios Officer John Jeffries, who had not been oo the force over two months, was shot by a robber in the arm, hip, and two places in the baok. The robber effected his escape. Between 12 and X o’clock, Officer Hut chinson observed a mra coming from an alley near Race and Water streets. The fellow, on observing the officer, crossed the street diagonally. The tho roughfare being muddy, the suspicion of the officer was at ance aroused, and he also crossed. “A wet morning, sir,” said the stranger to the officer. “Yes,” replied the official, “it is rather suspi oious that you are out at such a time, in suoh a place; yon are nnder arrest.** The stranger submitted quietly. Officer Hutchin son blew bis whistle. This brought Officer Jeffries, to the custody of whom the prisoner was trans ferred. Offer H. then proceeded to the alley whence the prisoner had emerged but a few moments before. Presently he heard four reports of a pistol in very rapid succession, indicating that a seir-oocklng re volving pistol had been fired. He hastened back, and discovered Officer Jeffries partly reoliningon the curbstone. The robber was fleeing. Officer Hutch inson gave chase, but the fugitive escaped in one of the dark thoroughfares in the Yieinity or Vine and Water streets. Officer Jeffcies was removed to hia residence, on North Seventh street, where he was attended by Dr. Pancoaet. On making an examination of Wilson’s bakery, near Race and Water streets, it was ascer tained that the fireproof had been bored into, and there was other evidence of preparation to blow it open. Several arrests were made during Saturday, or thieves and other parties, upon suspicion of being implicated in this affair, but they were all dis charged. [Before Mr. Alderman Davila ] Alleged Hotel Thieves. Edward Taylor and John Perry were arraigned on Saturday, on the charge of purloining an overcoat from the billiard-room of the Continental hotel. The defendants attempted to pawn It on Friday evening in the vicinity of Fifteenth and Market streets, when they were taken into custody. They were committed to await a further hearing. [Before Mr. Alderman Patahel. 3 Disorderly House. Louisa Rodgers was arraigned on Saturday, on the charge of keeping a disorderly house in the neighborhood of Broad and Sansom streets. Three young women in the house were taken into custody. They were put under bonds to be of future good be havior, and the alleged proprietress was held to an swer at court. Robbery. It was reported at the Central Station, on Satur* day, that the American Protestant Hall, on Locust stieet, below Fifteenth, had been forcibly entered and ransacked. The books, containing the work of the order, were stolen. This seemed to be the ob ject o! the intruders. PHILADELPHIA HOARD OP TRADE. GEO. L. BUZBY. J BDW. G.
