BlJE BOPE OK THE JCRY. "Boys, UiJ
1 ever tell you 'bout the time I sot onto a
jury with Eije Bope ? asked Joe Duskin,
taking a wig out of tho demijohn.
No, we answered.
Bije. you see, continued Joe, was jest a
lectle the contrariest, ovcrbearinest, crack
lieadedest cuss that ever rallied a com
mnomtv'a tennier. He bad bluebearded
j .
three wives to death, an' Led jest tackled a
fourth. In fact, the honey-moon was hand
over though I guess there was moro vine
gar 'n honey into it when Bije an' a par
cel more on us was yauked up afore Judge
Grimm to serve onto a jury.
In ev'ry case we tried we stood "kven to
one, an Bije was one. The jedge got mad
at last, an' thraitened in the next case that
come up he'd keep us at it till we did agree.
It was one of them jKsky hoss swappin'
cases. Bill Banter d put of onto Hi Greene
a sor'l critter with a false rye an" a artifi
cial tail. The eye was found layin into
the mang'e one mornin', an' the furst time
the boss got wi t his tail came onglurd and
drapt oft.
The evidence showed that Hid boon iiar
tic'lar to ax about the eyes, an' Bill 'd said
the animal had as good an eye as the next
boss. Bill, howsoever, offered to prove
that the Dext boss to his'n at the time was
t tone blind, but the court ruled that out.
After a sardi'm' charge from the jedge,
we retired to our room, his honor lust ad
nionishin' us that, ef we didn't agree this
time, he'd make an example on us to all
futur' juries.
It looked like a plain case most on us
thought, an' we'd strong hojes that for
oac't Bije would listeu to reason. But the
fust vote we took showed how fur we was
out in our reck'uin. 'Leveu on us stood
for givin' the plaintiff damidges, but Bije
was unanimous for the defendant, an' he
said he'd be drot ef he didn't cat his boots
afore he'd cave.
We tried to argy with him ; insisted that
it was a clear case of fraud, an' called at
tention to the strong points in the judge's
charge.
But Bije had his owu views, lie said
Bill 'd only eaid the boss bed a good eye,
which couldn't be constrood as uieauiu'
tiro good eyes ; while, in regards of the tail,
nothing d ben 6aid, nary way ; an' where
there was no warrantee, a man's eyes was
bis market. He said that was good hof-s-law,
an' he knowed it, an' didn't care a
continental tchat the jedgc said.
So we jawed over 'n over it till v. c was
tired, but no use : Bije still bung out.
When the court let out, the jedgc ordered
us io tie took to supper, an' then to bo lock
ed up.
I don't want to dwell onto the miseries o'
that night. We worried through somehow
till the court took up next mornin', when
the jedge bed us bruug out, lookin' for all
the world like so many pennytent tomcats
arter a night's mootooal misondcrstandin'.
"Hev you agreed onto a verdict, gentle
men ?" tn'ii he.
"Xo, we heven't'' says the foreman,
sulkin'.
"There's no hurry," says the jedge
btnilin' ; "le terruH laat covplc of xreds
yrt. The sherifTH take you to breakfast
now, an' then you may reoom your delib
erations." Arter breakfast we fell a little pearter,
an' some on us picked up heart to make
another set at Bije ; but he was headslrong
er an' ever, an' said we'd ought to be
ashamed on ourselves, so we'd ought, to
take advantage o' numbers to bully an
honest man's conscience.
While we was a breakfast the foreman 'd
managed to get bold o" the county iTtjier,
which had jest come out that mornin', and,
to while away the time, he logan to road
it.
"Hollo !' fcaid he ; "what's this y
"What's what ?" says we.
"Listen here," says he, proceedin' to
read :
"Siartlinrj Humor. The town is greatly
excited this morning by the rumored elope
ment of Mrs. B., the wife of a prominent
citizen. She took advantage, it is said, of
her husband's absence on public duty to
carry out her plan. A marked feature in
the affair is that the lady has scarcely !n;cn
married a month'
"Woat's that ?" screeches Bije Bope, in
an outburst o' terror.
"The foreman read it over agin1 slow an'
solemn. Xow Bije was as jealous as that
'ere dark-complected chap in the play.
Besides, there wa'n't no other Mrs. B. in
the place lately married, and thcu there
was the circumstances of the husband'e
absence on public duty. Bije had no doubt
that the Mrs. B. allooded to was his own
wife.
"Let me out !" he yelled, runuiu' full
butt at the door.
"Not till you've agreed onto a vcrdie',"
says the bailiff, through the key hole.
"I I I'll agree to anything !" splutters
Bije. "For goodness sake, hurry gentle
men a thousand dollars damidgos, if you
like !"
Wc said we thought that was rather
ny thirty, eo it's done quick !" he gasp
ed, ag'ny. We could hardly keep him from
junipin' out o' the winder, while some on
us portended to dicker about the amount
we should bring iu, jest to tormeut him.
At last rv'ry thing was fixed, an we
went into court, give in our verdie', an'
was dooly discharged.
Bije was rnihin' out on the double-quick
with murder in his eye, when the foreman
topped him :
"I think you're lab'rin' under some mis
take, Mr. Jojie," says he : "that there jiifc
I rrod, i0" Kft, frohi a California 'r,

To bouncing boys at play ;
And youths by maidens fair caressed,

And old men silver gray.

memento of the Ingenuity and perseverance ap
pertaining to the identity of progression, plyiug
our vocation with the highest style of art and

To suit the people about the town.

Dr. 4. Walker's California Vine

extracted therefrom without tho use of
Alcohol. The question is almost daily
asked, " What is tho cause of the unpar
alleled success of Vinegar Bitters t
Our answer is, that they remove tho
cause of disease, and tho patient recov
ers his health. They are tho great
blood purifier and a life-giving princi

compounded possessing the remarkable
qualities of Vinegar Bitters in healing
the sick of every disease man is heir to.
They are a gentle I'urgativo as well as a

EARLY SPRIXC.
Now nature wakes from out her wintry trance,
Rejoiced that winter's gonp, and spring's at
hand i
Fair, blue-eyed spring, who, with a proud ad
advance, Hath marched into the land. - -
Strangely the sky hath aoftenea, like the eyes -Of
some coy maiden just begun to love ;
The woods are starred with flowret8,as the skies
Are starred at nights above.
There drifts of lilies mimic winter' snows,
'Neath branches late by wild winds bent and
riven ;
And the sky hyacinth that earliest blows
Brintrs down the blue of heaven
Each morn gives birth to fresh life-giving airs ;
And lightly, blithely throb through every
thing All vernal impulses, all vernal stirs,
The spirit which ia spring.

Do Frcits Mix t We notice that the belief is
entertained by some leading pomologists that
not only strawberries will mix bv havinir differ
ent varities in juxtaposition, but that par$ will
ao tne same thing ! We have onr doubt of this;
at least we have never observed anything of the
kind among our own fruit, though growing side
Dy side, tve all know that pistillate straw
berry must be fertilized by a staminate variety
aud this staminate may be changed year after
year without modifying in any degree the nrigi
nai berry. We all know, too, that continuing
this practice, the Allen raspberry by itself U a
poor bearer of small fruit, but If fructified bv
another raspberry whose inflorescence occurs at
me same time, it will produce larger, better and
three or four times as much fruit, but thev are
strictly the Allen still. We also know the same
io oe tne case Willi grapes when vines of different
varieties are placed io Juxtaposition. We must
have very strong proof before we can believe that
tne pollen or one Trait transmits to another fruit
belonging to the tame family anything mora
than, when necessary, an assistance In its pro
ductive capacity. Germentoten Ttltgraph.
Mancbisc. Small Fruits. A corresDondent
desires to be informed what small fruits are
most and what least benefited by manuring. Ia
answer, we would say, in a genial way, manure
such small fruits as are perfectly hardy and
which overbear, and avoid manuring rampant
growers, the productiveness of which ia dimin
ished too much by growing rapidly. Hence you
will rarely find such great bearers as the Wilson
strawberry manured too much, while blackber
ries, which often grow seven or eight feet in a
year, will commonly do better, bear better, ripen
their wood more perfectly, and become hardier,
if manured little or none ; and on naturally rich
soils, they often do better to allow grass to grow
in the rows. Slow-growing grapes, like the
Delaware, are better if enriched ; strong grower
succeed best if merely cultivated without ma
nuring. The practice must of course vary with
the previous condition or fertility of the soil.

Raising Fbvit in the Shade. A writer in
the Fmit Recorder contributes the results of ex
periments in raising fruits in the shade. A
parishioner objected to planting raspberries be
cause be had no place for them except the north
side of his barn. In 1863 I planted two rows of
raspberries, about sixty feet long and three feet
apart ir the rows, directly west from a two story
building and under the north side of a tight
board fence, so that they got no sun till after
noon and not more than two or three hours of
any day; and from that plantation we have
picked two bushels in a season of Ked Antwerp
and Brinkle's Orange, that were the admiration
of our neighbors. The finest Blackcaps lever
raised were directly under the north side of a
high bars.. I have raised a full crop of straw
berries (Russell's) In the same location, and
thus lengthened out the strawberry season, a
they ripened a week luier than those that had
the full benefit of the sun.
