of much importance, embracing, as it does, numerous other suits of a like nature, upon which action will, it is understood, be now commenced. The case is of long standing, andconsists of an action against the Mail\ Jj Company to recover damages (85,-,000) for the 'negligence (so stated)I of the Company’s employees and the subsequent death of SappiDgtdn. The principal ruling of the Supreme Court is chat the burden of the proof rests with the Mail Company,|and that, therefore, they are compelled to show why such neglect and death occurred. The Mail Company will probably appeal to the Su pretne Court of the United States. The minutes of the case are of interest, aud we would like to give them in fall, but lack of space forbids more than this brief mention. Messrs. Harrington Korbly, of this city, whose very able brief in the case has attracted much attention, are the Appellee’s attorneys.
