The last Harrisburg Telegraph contains the
'following synopsis of a decision in n curious
Case,". by the Stipmme Court, now in
~@
Long vs. 'look. Error to Iletlford. In this case
the testator made his mark—the scriv iner attach.
'ed the wrong name to it—Jacob Long instead o
David Long. The will was dated in 1544. Tes
tator died in 1848. The Court below rejected
the will.
Gibson C. J. Under the act of 1833. this exc.
'cation would be imperfect; that act allowing the
'name of the testator to be written by another.
But this is not the name of the testator. The
(right to make wills is a possitive, not natural
right; and the directions of the statute must be
'followed.
-rut the act of 1848, when a mark is made,"
dispenses with the name, as an essential part 0
'the signature, as it dies with the mark, when the
name is written by another by his direction.—
The impertinent mark, as it could not corrobo.
rate, ought to weaken it. True, a name is an
index to the mark,- but -does -not conclusively
point to the marksman ; he may be individuated
by proof aliurade. Had the act of 1848 said nosh•
ing about the name, the mark without a la
ble attached to it—and the name is no more
than a label—would have satisfied the statute,
-And nothing else would have done it. As we
have the testator's true and proper mark, the at
tachment of a false and improper label to it, is a
surplusage which never vitiates. The mistake o
he scrivine.r in affixing such a label, cannot
avoid that which was perfect without it. The
fallacy is in supposing that the name under the
testator g,oeerns the mark, when there is one, in
stead of-being, governed by it. The name affix.
ell by the scriwiner may intimate a falsehood;
hut the mark, when it is made by the testa
tor, never, The latter when proved to he genu
ine may satisfy the statute; the former without
the testator's authority, cannot.
This will was made before the act of 1848,
but the death was after it—and the will, contrary
to the opinion of the court below, is ruled by it.
Judgment reversed.
Professor Webster's Case
The Committee on Pardons, held a session on
'Monday July Bth, and the parties have' been re.
quested to appear before them, and present all the
&moments they intend to offer in the case, and a
hearing will be granted to any argument they
may choose to make as their final one.
It is generally understood that one (tithe clues.
lions submitted to three eminent surgeons, was,
whether with such a stick as that described in
'the confession, a single blow could be given,
which would cause death in ten minutes, in the
!manner descrided. The answer Was that it. was
!improbable. The two other questions arc also
!stated to have'been answered adversely to the
'confession.
Another point of doubt is, that the sink in the
room where the confession states that the body
'was dismembered, does not contain a stop-cock
'Tor Cochituate water. The confession states that
`The Cochimate water was turned upon the body
'in this sink.
Tall Fishing
Several gentlemen left this place last week,•
says the Easton Whig and Journal, on a fiA•
'ling excursion to the Tobyhanna. They were
.'fully eqUipped for the expedition, and camped
' out during their absence. They were engaged
in angling five days and caught 9,493 trout, be
sides some fine pike and other fish. Some of the
trout were very fine,
_Weighing from two and a
half to three pounds.
From the Carbon County Gazette, we learn
that a number of citizens of Mauch Chunk, re
paired to the Lehigh a short distance below
'Weisspert, where . they "cast their nets" and a!
the first haul brought ashore one thousand and

They made five other hauls and the total num

Another Gas Discovery
A letter from Ncw York, in the Lancaster E
xaminer, states that on the 19th ult., Dr. Abraham
Gesner of Halifax, N. S., submitted to the exam•
ination of several scientific gentlemen and mer
chants, of that city, a discovery which he has
made in the manufacture of gas, which will pro_
duce a revolution in that article, ensuring light
io the public, of superior quality, at less than half
the cost of gas from coal. Dr. Gesner has just
returned from Washington, where he has obtain
ed a patent . for his invention. The examination
was held at 79 John street, in the basement of the
store of Messrs. Walworth' Mason &
where an apparatus was fitted up and the lights
• set .burning. The soft and beautiful brilliancy
of the light was the theme of admiration of eve
ry one present. It 'was' produced from papilla.
A Step Downward.—Mmst of our citizens will
recollect Eldridge E. Eastman, formerly a prin-:,

to Knoxville, Tennessee. Subsequently he was .
appointed to a clerkship at Washington, by Pres 7;
ident Polk, which, after holding a short time, he
resigned, and went to Nashville to take charge:
of the “Uttion" in that city. Last of all, to cap
the climax in his downward career, he was chief

that the attendance will be very considerable.—
Those from the northern portions of the State
will assemble at Cleveland, and proceed thence,

of meeting.
Great preparations are being made, and it
expected that, while the meeting will be strong in

others. A great number were seriously injured
by the falling of the seats—one or two children
so much so that very little hopes are entertain•

Our friends of the Iron City have had a tri•

:river by the people residing about that town,
which %vas especially injurious to the city of
