A Tree Imbroglio.—The case of the mutilating a tree by an amateur mu tilator°which we casually relerred to last week is assuming an importance which the actual value of the damag­ es involved would hardly seem to warrant. As the merits of the case are feeing freely discussed about town itrciay be as well that we should place our read »rs in possession of the Facts of the case as succinctly as w.e can, Mr. Titos. Fowler, now of Galt, owns a property on the south side of Rat tenbury St., which is leased‘and oc­ cupied by Dr. Blackall, our popular “vet.’J On this property there are;a number of Iruit trees of vigorous growth, and generous umbritgeou- ness Of all the trees on the proper ty the one most prized by the owner as well as by the tenant is an apple tree growiug near ’he line fence separating this property from that of Mr. S. Davis adjoining. There is not.hing mean about this apple tree. It might have confined its extending arms to the property on .which it stobd and from which the parent stem has received its nurture ever since the- original prarirefj"M'r.Daahe; mfiny-vears ago, in its weak and pul-' ing infancy, entrusted, its pap seek* ing rootletB to the mellow soil, but if would not deform itself if-even in its attempt to preserve its symmetrical, pjopoitio'ns it should make glad the heart of the owner of the neighboring property. The consequence has been that the tree-flourished and grew in lavor with every iover of the .beliuti ful in leafy nature, and it waxed ex*, ceedingly strong apd,‘became fruitful ami afforded’ a liberal supply ol luscious apples to the owner Of the . property OU which- it stands ' The gracefully extending arms that pro jeetgd over the • adjmning property also made glad the hearts of the oc •copiers thereof. Alas tor the iaiehrl"' apple tree, thy fruit .lii'st-. templed our first parents and so brought sin anil'discord ami envy and^strile and all manner of unchaiitalreness’ ,nto a hitherto pleasant .p;ar>idise../1’hy accursed taint of 'piyciihWug.\eVfl seems by the inflexible law's o. bered ;ity-to have-pas8ed’<lown-the inng line of ages-and been-tri'ansmitted. |bo thy offspi ing ol even ibis day and gener ation. O rosy cheek’d;.apples with , t'ich and vai.ir.coloied coats glistening in the sun; and the memory of thy tart'sweetness still lingering in the p tlate I Wlat mbonligl t mara'uding hast "though been the l'em|. ter to? And as the pa/e surface of Luna has been veiled by passing clouds how many times and in- what numbers have thy victims appropriated thee regardless .ofthe laws of jnium and lullin'! Yes indeed and not content with thy conquests over impression uble youth thou must even at this late (toy-throw—thy-weird spell over those of maturer years. The mystic spell that we now refer to was th.it -which caused gome one to cut off sev­ eral feet of extending branches of the tree-referred to in the first part ol this o er true tale.. We believe the offence involved in mutilating the -tree would come witliin the provihee of a Stipendiary magistrate to sum­ mary deal with, this is stated ip pass- ing', as at least one case which might be relerred to in vindication o, the appointment of such ah official. As ■ tlie.-matter now stands it peetns noth ing .short of a series of chancery sui.ts can settle'.the issue involved.- It is held ~T>y some that a good case of; mayhem can be made out against ' tli'FWFtiWtQraw com" sistsfn “the deprivation of- some es, sen tial parts ’. But" the ' question* arises are lhe extremities of 'the branches of a tree essential parts, apd it so, essential parts of what ? Well, conceded that' they' 'are’\essential ' parts of the tree and,that their loss ‘ is an actual damage to the tree, ^.to whom should sUch damage be paid ?

It will beTfeolb’Cted that Btdlutn’s ox ran away and jumped aboard of Bomem'a flat boat moored'at tlie rivtr. The boat, by the sudd n impetus given it by the accession of its four footed passenger, broke loose. Boat and ox were both lost. Boatem claimed damages from BuTlum for the lo^s of bis boat, and Bulfom claimed'dumag. es from Boatem for the loss of his ox. The Supreme Court decided that Boatem was the injured party, as Jiad not Bullum's ox taken unlicensed possession ot his boat she would have remained moor'd, although the wor­ thy j dge admitted that ifrit had not been that Boatem’s boat was access­ ible to Bullum’s ox the animal would have taken to the water and would likely have.swam to' the opposite shore instead of sailing down to the .open sea and getting drowned. Now then, says thejpwnerof lhe tree, if the owner of the adjoining property had so fenced&^p / 'is. kigh fence the branches ot this tree could not have extended over his property a id they could not have been cut off f r so overlapping. In fact the owner of lhe tree is understood to have beep advised that if he cannot ‘find the mutilator of his tree that lie will have cause - ot action against-tliet ow ner of the adjoining property on whose premises the damage to .his tree was done. Of c.ourse’the owner of the said adjoining property would ’lfave redress against the mutilator, when found, and compel him to re­ coup him for any damages he might be mulct’d in hy the proprietor ot the . tree. An effort is being made by the, friends of all partiesa$to have what promises to be an interminable case, . a. very Jam iyce vs Jarndvce, settled without recourse to legal proceedings. As nearly all the parties are neigh­ bors, it-is to be hoped that:, mutual friends will use their good offices to­ ward preventing the lawyers from .plucking'them all. GiHlerlch Township. .
