Qoncrul Gridley had beMt ined #3 by the city authorities for aUt^ing snow to remain on the side walk of certain premises owned by him, contrary to the provisions of ii certain city ordinance. The case was appealed, and the judgment of the court below reversed. Judge Scott who rendered the opinion of Ihe Su­ preme Court, said: Keeping streets and sidewalks In re- dr and free from obstructions that jM§*v»ve! or render it dangerous fa referable to the same pewer as for ooMtraeflng new improvements. The aidewalk. as was declared in the case «lte<l,l* as much a public highway, free •o the me of ail, as the street Itself, and upon principle it follows the citi­ zen cannot be laid under obligation, under our laws, to keep it free from obstructions In front of his property, •Mils own expense, any more than the •trsat itseJf either by the exercise of the police power or by 9nee and penal­ ties imposed by the ordinance or by direct legislative action. Our conclu­ sion is, the ordinance in question is Invalid, anil the judgment must be ijiversed and the case demanded.--" reversed."

Dr. Underhill, the well-known grape-grower of Croton Point, died in 1871. Some of his heirs entertained temperance views of such extreme kind, that they were unwilling to allow the stock of wines then on hand to be sold or any more to be made. The giupeis liavt suuaetiuies becu »ent to market, and sometimes left to decay upon the vines. It is only now that the other heirs have succeeded in arranging for a settlement of the estate and the sale of the wines on hand. Among these is a wine of the vintage of 1864, described as a " Sweet Union Port," but suggesting the Imperial Tokay more ~ " id : wine of A 'y. age 1 remarkable, and both pi than any other European wine, am 'ly unlike any oth< growth. Its purit wholly being unlike any other wine of American and mellowness are th physi cians and wine- ciaf interest in it as the fanciers have a specia oldest native wine now accessible in any COIH siderable Quantity. The whole stock is in the hands of tne well-known wholesale grocery house of the Thurbers.--iV. Y. Ttihme, Nov. zg, iSfj. The above speaks tor ltsel( but we woold add (hat this is the pure juice of the grape, neither drugged, liquored nor "watered; that it has been ripened and mellowed by age, and for medicinal or sacramental purposes it is | unsurpassed.
