halted mid explained to Mr. Kennedy how a
man I'niilil (,'i't ailing in this world without
oilliiT lifjlitiii; or riiiinim;.
Sir. Kennedy was limited. It was light
cnotii'li to arrest him. II' a man argues with
another man, knocks him down to enforce
his particular views, and doesn't exhibit a
meek and lowly spirit after his lit ol anger
as passed away, it is but right that he
hould be arre.-led.
His Honor, the Judge, made me take a sol
emn oalli to tell tlio truth. JIc. might have.
judged from my looks that I would tell a de-
iciato lie about a one-horse knock-down,
or peihaps he hoped I would perjure myself
mid give him a chance to send mo to State's
prison for live years.
The counsel for tho prosecution then
wanted to know what my name was. I had
lived next door to him for eleven years, but
et ho suspected '.hat I might Vie John Smith
or William ratter.son. After I had salished
hini what mv lianio was. be wanted to know
ifl lived in Detroit, lie could have went
from the couit lo my house blindfolded, but
ho persisted in liisoiieslion. Then ho want-
I to know if I lived in "Detroit. Countv of
Wavne. Slate of Michi.'.'in." Ho seemed to
sitspccl that Ihe name of the county had
been changed, and that I didn't know wheth-
cr 1 lived iu Michigan or Ohio, but 1 satisli-
him.
All this didn't lako ill) but half an hour's
i
time, and then ho wanted lo know if I saw
the dilliciilty between Kennedy and Thomas,
I was otiito sure I saw it, but ho didu'Uecm
to be. Ilo wauled to know if 1 saw tho blow
tiiick ; if I was ccitain 1 saw it ; if theio
was more than one lilow ; H lliero were inree
blown; if (here was any kicking ; and after

"Well, your Honor," replied tho other
iwyer, lacing tho desk, "the question is a
vital one a liingo question. Wo expect
that tho answer to that question will decide
tho innocence of my client."
His honor leaned back as if tho fato of
kingdoms depended upon his decision, and
the lawyers read llio twelfth Michigan re-
port, tlio seventeenth Massachusetts, tbo
ninth New York, tho eleventh Vermont,
and one or two others, and for an hour and
a half tho ease was put aside, They finally
got through, ami the court decided that!
need not answer the question. It was then
noon, and the com I adjourned until two o'-
duel:.
When the court opened iu tlio afternoon,
the lawyer resumed tho cross examination
by asking:
"I low obi aro you ?
"Ihlily-two,"
I lilrly-twouililu'lyoii lell mo Ibis niorit

"No, sir."
"Vou didn't, eh?"

Ho noted tho answer down and then ask

"Haven t you been arrested lor limn

"Never."
"What? icmenibcr, sir, you nro on oath!"
"I never was,"
"Were you ever engaged iu a t Jot?''
"Yes, sir,"
"Ah I ym weio, eh? Let tho jury mako

"In 1870."

"Wo liting a lawyer to n lnnip-post lor
"Vliat,"he yelled, shaking bis li.sl, "am I
to bo insulled by this witness, your Honor?"
Tlio two attorneys thou brought in anoth
er pile of law books, and alter arguing for
an hour tho court decided that tho defence,
had no right to ask mo those question."
The cnns-exaiuiiiatloii was then resinned
by his asking:
"You say you saw tins dillieully ?
"Yes, sir."
'You swear to that?"
"Yes, sir."
"And yi i say that the plaintiff struck tlio
defendant lirst?"
"No sir: it was tho other way."
"Now, sir, look mo in the eyo and lell me
which man struck lirst."
"Tho defendant."
"Ho did?"
"Yes sir."
"Look out, Mr. tj.ua(l, yoti are under oath,
and if you swear lo a lie the punishment will
not be les i than a year in State prison. 1 lo
you say that my client hero kicked the de
fendant iu the stomach?"
'No, sir."
"Ah, I thought my warning would touch
you. bo my client ilidu t kick tho plain
tiff?" "No, sir."
"Nor bite bint?"
'No, sir."
"Nor hit him with a club?"
"No, sir."
"Nor drew a revolver on him?"
"No, sir."
"Well, that's all, .Mr. ('uad-that is all.
Oh I by the way, did you ever have a light
with my client?"
"No, sir."
"Didn't you threaten to shoot him about
a ye,ar ago?"
"No sir."
As I was tlio only witness, tlio lawyers at
once went to business, and on tho third day
after the suit commenced, the case was given
to tho jury, and tho jury promptly cleared
the defendant, possibly on tho ground that I
never voted for Andrew .Jackson,
Tliidwing Old Shoes.
Very few, probihly, of the, thousands who
throw old shoes after bridal parties as they
nro leaving homo know anything of tho
origin ol the custom, Like almost all ol
our common customs ils origin is ancient,
and can bo traced to lliblo limes. It was
then tho custom for the brother of a childless
man lo marry his widow, or at least ho had
the refusal of her. If ho chose to reject her,
tbo ceremony was public, and consisted in
her losing bis shoo (rout his loot and spitting
in his lace, llisgivmg up llio shoe was a
symbol ol his abandoning all dominion over
her, and her spitting in Ins laeo was an as-
set lion of independence. There was an af-
fair of this kind between liiith and lioaz,
In somo parts of the l'.ast it was a custom to
cany a slipper belore a licwly-iuarrieil couple
as a token of tlio brides slihieclioii. J ho
custom a-, it exists with us is very old in
Lngland and Scotlaiiil. Iho usual say in,
is that it is throw n for luck, and that is Ihe
idea in this country, but originally it meant
a renunciation of authority over the bride
by tho parents. It was formerly a cti-tom
among the Hermans for the bride when she
was conducted lo her bed chamber to lake
oll'hcr shoe and throw it among the giie.-ls.
Whoever got il, m a struggle to obtain it,
leceived it as an omen that he or she would
soon no nappiiy married, i rain, in ins nis-
tory of the "Islo of Man," says: "On tin
biidegroom leaving his bouse, il was ciisto
mary to throw an old shoo after him, and
in like manner an old shoo after tho bride?
m leaving her homo to proceed to church
in order to insure good luck to each respect
ivcly, and if by stratagem cither of Iho
bride's shoes could bo taken off by any in-
speetor on her way from church, it had t(
he ransomed by the brido-aroom." Iu Kent.
Kngland, after the couple havo started on
their tour tho single ladies are drawn up iu
nno rmv .ln,j n,0 bachelors in another. An
old shoo is then thrown as lar as possible
and tho ladies run for il, the successful one
being supposed to bo the first femalo who
will gel married. She then throws tho sjioo
at the gentlemen, and llio one who is hit by
it is deemed to ho the first malo who will
enler into wedlock, (ienerally it is consul
cred tho older tho shoo the better.
Scll'-Ki'liance.
There is nothing more likely lo result in
the stiecosslul career of a young man than
confident self-rcliaiieo. It is astonishing how
much moro a youth will accomplish who ro-
lies upon himself, than ono who depends on
others for assistame,
Having first asccr-
tamed tho direction in, nnd the means liy,
which Ids object is to bo reached, let him
put his whole energies to work, and, with
unflagging industry, press forward. Tho
voting man who, instead ol Using at five,
sleeps till seven or eight, and who spends
his evenings on tho corners or iu the com
paiiiousbip of tho-o who aro wauling iu lau
liable ambition, rarely ever wins a position
of honor, or achieves a lepnlalion above that
enjoyed by tho common masses,
In a country like ours, wheio tho avenues
to honor and wealth nro open nliko to all,
thrio is no reasonable excuse that can bo of-
fern! for a man's failure lo achieve ono or
tho other, or both. Hl-hcnllh, or extraordi
nary mi-fortuno may keep him down, but
I lhco nro tho exceptions that establish tho
rnc, Few men know of how much they are
capable until they havo first thoroughly
tested their abilitlis, Tho amount of labor,
literary or mechanical, which a person in
vigorous health can perfoim, is almost with
out limit, if a systematic method is adopted,
ami the proper spliit incited to the cll'nrl.
An hour of i nch evening spent with some
good author, or iu tlio study of somo branch
of useful science, will, lu llio cotirso of a few
years, give to a young man who thus devotes
the small poi'.lon ol his time an amount ol
information (llteriny or scientific) which
cannot fail to fit him for positions to which
lio iniild never piopuly tuqilro without this
attention to study,

llciiiai'lis of .Iinlgo llltvell, nt tlio Normal
School Meeting, Sciilf inlitr (I, 1S75.
Itcpoitcd by Prof. Walker.
The meeting having boon duly organized,
iu puisuunee to a call .Imlgo Elwcll spoko as
follows :
It is well-known lo you all, eiliens, tlio
alamily which befell this town on Saturday
afternoon it calamity more severo than
almo-l any other that ever happened to this
community. One of tho most lloiirishlug in
stitutions of the ('oiiinionwealth has met
with disinter by lire ; and wo nro convened
this morning for tho purpose, ho far as prac
ticable, as possible, to ovcicomo tho (lilllcul
ties thai are caused by icasoii of that calam
ity; and, lu order to do that, it is necessary
that tho citizens of this town (inasmuch as
they am each and every ono interested in tho
property of this institution,) that tho citi
zens should lako measures imiiioli.ttoly lo
inako uiicli provisions for students as will on-
ililo them lo remain and tho school to con
tinue. Wo havo yet remaining the original
school building tho one in which a largo
part of llio scholars cm he, laiight. lint the
boarding hall and the dormitories are ih -
stroyed, and thcro is an immediate necessity
therefore, and ono th.ilealh together this
meeting, that of making provision for theso
students so that that important part of car
rying on tlio Institution may bo provided
"or, and suitable boarding rooms for the
scholars.
The school stalled oil' with excellent pros-
peels for the present term belter than at
my time sinco ilsiirgaiii..itioii. It lias been
gradually under the present administration,
on the increase in favor willi tlio communi
ty, lis lcpulalion extends far and wide.
It has become not only a great attraction
but an indispensable necessity. It must not
bo allowed, for ono moment, although so
great a calamity has befallen il, lo be stayed
in ils course. And it is upon the citizens
now that rest what I may term the responsi-
ilitics involved in this matter. It U not
merely the trustees, a few individuals who
iro citizens of this town, they are not tho
ones solely interested in this institution any
moro than any other citizen, no moro limit
huiidreds or the citizens of this town. Every
citizen feels that it is a matter in which ho
is concerned, that he is not only personally
interested iu it, but that there is a duty
resting upon him lo step forward, and in
every possihlo way to aid this enter-
prise. As it appeals lo my mind what can
bo (lollO is t() continue tho School. JilltKOnlO
may say, 1 his is merely a temporary mat
ter. The building is insured. Tlio insur
ance will be got and the tiustees will put it
up again, and if the school should slop for a
little while that won't make much dill'er-
ence ; H will go on again.
I'liose who reason thus reason without un-
deilaniliiig the facts in thoniattcr. Can we,
if the institution or the school should closo
now for any length of time, do over again
Iho same work that has been doing for years
to bring it up lieforo the people and to place
it upon the foundation where it is now?
As to the matter of rebuilding, that should
be, must be, ought lo be done; but those
who conclude that Iho insurance money (not
vet received and no ariapgeineut inado
concerning il,) is gdrglo t'o lie V(il;

upon the coupons or rather with coupons
hie. It owes for borrowed money somo Sjll',-
(100 or $17,0I0. It owes numbers of smaller
lebts, how much 1 don't know, but say ",-
HDD. It is s.-)0,U()tl iu debt, at least. There
fore, to say that tho thirty thousand dol
lars insurance will rebuild it, and that other
citizens should do nothing in reference to it,
is to reason ip a way to throw cold water on
the whole thing, and it would inevitably go
down under such a stale of things as that
Tlio direct object of this meeting this
morning is to ascertain who of the citizens
will take students as boarders, how many
they can take, and what provision they can
make in tho way of nanus mid all Ihal; for
it is necessary to provide immediately for
these scholars- for llio limo being. In what
particular way wo shall ascertain about that,
I H...I ...... 1... 1 1 ...I.., I ,.., l...

done in that respect, wo want lo determine
now if wo can. l'erhaps il will bo done by
the pi'csidcnl'.s calling upon thoso who are
willing lo take bo.irder.s to see how many
they will take.
1 suppose iu reganl lo tho matter of re
building, of cour.-e the eiliens are not pre
pared this morning lo take action upon that
subject. And yet I am aware thai belore
we adjourn it would be well that a commit-
leo bo appointed to tako subscriptions for the

.Ii'tii'iials Two Thousand Years Ago,
The Hist Unman journal, over 2,(i(JH years
ago, appeared only onco a yoar. Mils pa
per, intended especially to lie lead by llio
public, was known by the title Anniilii Mux
iuii. Tho editor of Ibis paper was the
l'ldilrifex Maximums wlio.-o duly it was (o

I
j ,1... I.,, i , ,.i' il,,,
The news was wiilten on white wood
en tables and attached lo the residence
tho cili.cns. It must havo been
must Juno been a very
uiious sight lo seo tho old Unman crowd
ing round tho tablets to gel a look at tho
latest news, Hut the Ihiist after knowledge
and tho curiosity of llio peoplo grew rapidly
and iu such a measure that llio government
tho only issuer of the journal, found itlclf
obliged to isuo a daily. Kmio of these
journals 2,010 yearn after, aio still in ex
istence. i he namo ol this journal was ca
'onii Humaui Diurmt, und appeared dally
on cither tablets hung mil lu piddle, or the
contents written with ud chalk on tho walls
of tho houses, Tho contents wero simply
news ; from iho want of Ihe iicceaiy ma
terials political aiticles were not to bo had.
Nevertheless, accoidlng to the view of Un
man government, it was a true journal, and
intended as a reading matter for llio publl
which mii.dit also lie iufeired from the fact
that llio archives ol the Wato were carved iu
bronzo and luacecsiblo to tlio public.
Fur Womankind.
"H is belter to lovo a man you can nover
marry than to marry a man you never lovo.
This is a short text for a long sermon," says
somo wiso man or woman. A loveless mar
riage is much womo for a woman In every way
than for n man. In tlio first place woman
has her credit, whethershodeserves It or not,
of being much moro rellncd, of possessing
much moro delicacy and sensibility than
tho "stronger sex." Ileing thus higher, her
degiedalion, when it comes, is much moro
thorough and terrible. Few things can con
duce to this result in a greater degree than
the constant nnd intimato relation of mar
ried life with a man she docs not' love. We
havo heard refined young women speak with
disgust of the coarseness of tho conversation
of a class of their married lady acquaintan
ces, mid in many eases have traced this (lis
agiecablo trait back (o lis cause a well
known loveless wedded life. Then again,
perhaps, tlio woman who marries forsilppoit,
for a home, an "establishment," or becauso
she lias never loved any one and fears that
tho present will bo her last ehanco (dreadful
thought), afterwatds meets somo one who she
cm and does love. The result is casly fore
seen, either a life spent in tho terrible dibit
to subdue an unhappy passion or tbo divorce
court. After nil, tho good old Quaker cus
tom is best, duo deliberation find relleclion
before "entering into tlio married state."
Marrying in haste to repent at leisure is
very fashionable now-a-days, but it is a
fashion which can bo profitable or pleasant
only to tho lawyers, and not lo them if they

Antiquity of the Watch.
"Watch" is from a Saxon word signifying
'to wake.' At lirst tho watch was as largo
as a saucer; it had weights and was called
"tho pocket clock." The earliest known
use of tho modern namo occurs in a record
of 1212; which mentions that Edward I,
had 'onn. larum or watch of iron, this case
being likewise of iron gilt, with two plumcts
of lead.' Tho lirst improvement, tho sub-

There is a watch in tho Swiss Museum

iinerted iu llio top of a pencil case. Jts
hands indicate not only hours, minutes and
cconds, but also the days of t'.io month. It
is a relic of old times, when watches were
inserted in Bimll boxes, shirt studs, breast
pins, bracelets and finger rings. Many wore
fantastic, oval, octangular, cruciform, or in
the shape of pears, melons, tulips or eolliiis.

Alniost every morning at
breakfast the heaitless husband expressed
the hope that he might li vo to seo tlio day
when he should get. such coffee as ho Used to
havo at homo. Or such corn-bread as his
mother was wont to mako and bake. At
dinner Ihe meat wasoverbaked in tlio range.
To be sure bis mother used to roast Ihe meat
in an old-fashioned Duleh tin oven, and the
piece was always done to a turn the la
turn of tho revolving spit. Those days were
forever gone. Itut ho might and ought to
get such a green apple phi with new cheese
as his mother used to give him. Al length
tho long-siilferiiig wife arose in her wrath,
upset the table, sending the dishes and their
contents crashing lo tho carpet, slridcd over
to her astounded husband, gavo him a box
cm the car which knocked him oil' his chair,
and remarked : "There's a clip over tlio head

you when vou was a boy, golilurn yer.
