Miscellaneous. LEOAL INTEOUITY. "Young men," said Judge Lurlington, ad- dressini; liall'-a-dozeiv young lawyers, "never advocate a cause into tlio work of which you can not enter with n clear conscience. Never accept a client whose cause you do not believe, to bo just." "Can that rule be always adhered to ?', asked one of the listeners. "It can," answered Lurlington, emphati cally. "It is a lawyer's firm rock of founda tion, and the only sure point of departure to the respect and confidence of his fel lows." "Hitvo you always followed that rule, Judge." "I was never tempted from it hilt once" ho replied. "I will loll you tlio story, if you would like to hear it." Of course they would liko to j and hav ing laid aside his pipe, tho old man com menced : "One day I was waited upon by a man who g.ivo his naiuo as Labiiu Sarfurt. lie was of jniddle age, well dressed, and at first sight appeared to bo a gentleman ; but tho llusion was dispelled when approaching business. Ho was hnrd and unfecling.uiid naturally a villain. Success in speculation had saved him from being a thiet or high wayman. I heard of him as a heavy dealer in the up-river lands. Ho asked mo if I was willing to underlako a job which would call me tn Sliireton. I told him I was open to anything legitimate which would pay." "Mr. Lurlington," said he, tapping me with coarse familiarity upon tho arm, "1 want to securo your services You must not bo engaged on tho other side." "I told him if ho would explain to mo tlio case I might be belter able to give him an 111 suit. He bit au enormous quid ol tobacco from 11 black plug, nnd having got it into shape between his jaws ho went 011 with his story : Tlio oaso was one of ejectment. An elderly man, named l'liilip Acton, had died leaving a valuable i slale. There was nearly a thousand acres of laud, willi opportunities for developing immense, water-iiovver, uml ere many years that land would bo worth more than a million dollars. At present, upon tho estate, and claiming it as a son of t.10 deccnsei', was a man calling himself Henry Acton. "lint," said Sarfurt,"ho is nut n legitiinato child, His mother was Hetty Totwood, at oni) tnio a gill in Acton's employ, Acton, I know, was never married. Ho brought the boy up and educated him, and now tho fellow thinks ho will step into his protector's shoes. I can prove that I am tho only liv ing relative of l'liilip Acton, llowaimy uncle my mother's brother and, to a law yer as smart iuyoii.thero can bo no dilllculty iu proving my title. I can bring the wit nesses to your hand," "Ho lolil me bu would give mo five hun dred dollars if I would undertake Ids case, and an additional thousand if I gained. That was a big lee far moro than I had then made in all my pleadings. It was tempting. And yet I saw that it was not perfectly clear not entirely hon est. "Tho probability was that this Henry Acton was Philip's child! and it was not Im possible (hat l'liilip hud married lletsy Tot wood. It struck mo that Labnu Sarfurt was a villain, and that ho fancied h lind young Acton so lar (n Ills povyerthat lie cmid eject hiui from the tltlo. Rut wliat'had I 'partic ularly to do with that f If I accepted n client, I must serve him. I had no business but to serve his interest. "I finally told Mr, Sarfurt that I would think tho matter over. I should probably liuvo business in Sliireton during the session of tho court anil I would call 011 hi 111 there and examine moro fully, I could not take Ills retainer, until I had further light.'' "Hut," said he, will you promise not lo ttko up for the other side ?" "I told him I would do nothing without further cwmullatiou with lilir. "I!c?ause," ho ndclec), "If you nro tor me ! I run mro to win. Acton can't find a law yer that can hold a cnndlo to vou. I know them all." NlTmntlor whether I believed him nr nut I did nut feel flattered." Two weeks latter I received a letter from Sarlurl, promising mo fivo thousand dollars It I won. "I'lio five thousand dollars was a strong argument j but was not law really a gamo of chance, iu which tho strongest hand and longest purse mut win ? I told myself yes. Yea mul I sat down and wroto a reply. Baying that I would tako the caso. Hut I did not' mall It at onco That night I tint it tinder my pillow, and slept ovef" It ; and on tbolfollowlng morning I throw it Into the fire. I would not make up my mind until I had seen other partics-until I had been on tho grounds. And 1 wroto to Laban Sarfurt lo wait, "Two weeks latter I harnessed my horse, to tho wagon, and with my wlfo and child, started for Sliireton. I had been married two years, and our little babe, a girl, was a year old, our pride, our pet and our darling. Sliireton was distant about thirty miles. Wo had been having rainy weather, for a week or so, and it had now cleared off bright and beautiful. Wo stopped nnd took dinner at a wayside inn, four miles beyond which was a stream which must bo forded. Tlio inn keeper told 1110 that tho stream was some what swollen from the late rains, but that if my horse was trusty tlicro could bo no danger. "Arrived at tho stream tho Wnmpatuck river I found tho water indeed risen, and the current strong. Hut I saw that others had recently gono over, nnd I resolyed to venture. I knew my horse nnd had faith in him. My wife was anxious, but slio trusted my judgment. A third of tho way across tlio water was over tho hub of the wheel. A little more and it would reach the body ot the wagon. I began to bo alarmed. I feared I had left tho true track. Presently my horso stumbled and Btaggcred, having evidently stepped on a moving stone. The wagon swayed and tipped, and tiio flood poured In upon us. My wife slipiied, nnd in a moment moro wo wero in tho water, but with one hand I grasped tho harness upon tlio horse, and with tlio other I held my wife, I was thus struggling when .1 wild cry from her lips startled tho air. Our child was washed away, "Ob, my soul I lean not tell you what I suffered during those moments. I could not help our darling! If I left my wife she was lost. I clung to tho horse and clung to my shrieking wife shrieking to Ood for mercy for her child. The horso was struggling for the shore. In the distance, upon tho bosom of tho surging flood, I could sco our little one, her whito dress gleaming in tho suu, being born swiftly away. "A moment moro and I saw a man piling" from tho bank into the river. I saw thus much, and then an intervening point of land shut out tho scene. Tho horso was now rapidly Hearing tho shore, and ere long my wife and I wero upon dry land, witli tlio horse and wagon. As soon as I was sure my wifo was sale, I left her to care for the horse, while I posted olfdown tho river bauk in quest of the swimmer nnd the child. "You may well understand that all this time I was frantic. I was a maehino being operated upon by a surging and agonizing emotion. How long or far I wandered I do not know ; but at length I met a man wet and dripping, with my darling in his arms my darling safe and sound I "He told mo ho had caugh tho child with in a few rods of the fall, and that in landing lie had cleared the fatal abyss by not more than two yards ! lie was a young man not moro than twenty-live handsomo nnd stal wart. Ho said ho had seen my wagon tip. and was coining to my assistance when ho caw tho child washed away "I threw my lifo into the balance," sail he, with a peuial smile, "and thank God both lives wero saved." "I asked him how I should ever repay him. IIo stopped mo with an imploring gesture. "If you talk of moro pay than I have al ready received," ho said. "If you can rob 1110 of tho onlv solid reward I can claim Mercy I if saving tho life of such a cherub is not enough reward of itself, then hard I tho heart that can cravo more." And witl moistened eyes ho told me that he had a child of bis own at home an only child of nearly the same ago. "I asked him if ho would tell mo his name and with a smile he ausivered that it did tint matter ho was not sum that lie bad a name. I then asked him if ho knew me. He nod ded, and said ho thought I might bo Mr. Lurlington, of Iialdbridge, and when I told him ho was correct, ho said that I must ex cuse him, He was wet and must hurry home. And with that ho turned away. I was ton deeply moved to stop him, and when ho had disappcaied I started to rejoin my wife with n dawning impression that tho man might be slightly deranged. Hut my darling was safe her broad, fleecy cloak had floated out and kept her head above tho water and I went 011 my way rejoicing, resolved that the preserver of my child should not bo for gotten. "I will not tell you tho emotion of my wifu when sho held her child once moro in her arms. Wo reached Sliireton before night and found quintets at a comfortable tav ern. "Ou tho following day Laban Sarfurt called upon me, and was about to spread his evidence for my inspection whev I inten opt ed him, I told him I could not accept his confidence until I hat mado up my mind tn tako Ills case in hand. Something seemed to whisper that there was danger ahead, I I di'd nut feel comfortable, Iu that man's presence, I felt us though ho was trying to buy me. Tlio court would sit iu four days. I told him I would sit lu four days. I told him I would give him a final answer In two days from that. "That evening I made a confident of my wlfo, and asked her what X should do. 'If I tako tho case,'' I said, "I am Buro of fivo thousand dollars." She bade me do what was right. God has been very kind to m, she said. Let us look to Him fur our guid ance," 'After this I callfil on tho clergyman of tho place whose sou bud been my chi&i-nialo in txiliege and whom I had omu belbru visited. Horeceivid me heartily, ami by and by I naked him about Henry Aeton Tho result of all bo told iuo may be sum mul up iu Lis cloaiug itcuteure.

Met sey died soon after tho child was born, and wo know that l'liilip always treated tho boy at a legitimate child ; and that he loved him as such I can confidently nlh'rin." On the following morning nftcr breakfast, as I sat by the window iu tho bar-rooui, I saw coming up tho street the man who had naved my child. He was walking slowly, like 0110 In trouble. I painted him out to my host, and asked him who he was. "That is Henry Acton. I'ethaps ou havo hpard of tho trouble ho is likely tu have with Laban Sarfurt V I said I had heard. "I hopo ho may como out all right," tho host added j "but I am fearful. He has got a hard and heartless customer to deal with." "I shut my mouth and held my peace un til Laban Sarfurt called for his final answer. I said to him : "Mr. Sarfurt, I havo been considering all this titno whether 1 could undertake your case with a clear conscience whether I should be helping the sldo ol juslico and right in helping you. I had concluded that I could not do so before I had seen Henry Acton, to know him by unino. I nor know him for a man who nobly risked bis own life to savn tho life of my child. I'or that, in deed, I will reward him If 1 can. I havo as yet accepted not one of your privato disclos ures. I have gained from you nothing that you could wish to keep from tho public. I cannot tako your case, but I tell you frankly that if you prosecute, I will defend Hciiry Acton." I did not mind Sarfurt's wrath. He raved and swore, and then ho went oil' and engaged two lawyers from Herkimer to tako his case. I called upon Acton and told him I would defend him if ho accepted my service as I had accepted his. Ho took my band and thanked me. I havo made a great many pleas In my life, but I think I never made a better one than I made to the jury ou that oeciuion. Iheywero not out over fivo minutes, lly their verdict Henry Acton was tlio lawful possessor of the estnto his father had left. From that day I never hesitated to refuso n caso to which I could not give my heart. Such a stand on tho part of a lawyer becomes known, and the public, feels it ; nnd wiiat the public feels, juries are sure to feel. Conetrning Henry Acton, I will only add, N10 became my bosom friend. He always felt that be owed bis title to bis valuable piopcrty to me; and I.knew that I not only owed tho lifo of my child, but that to him I was indebted for tho home that was mine for thirty years. He was very delicate in the gift of that piece of property. He deeded it to my wife. The husband of my oldest daughter is his oldest sou Spiiutuai.istio Phenomena. The per suasive spirit ot Katie King, which so deep ly influenced Mr. Wallace and other men of science and note in England, was unablo to copo with the unsparing rigors of our cli mate, and turned out to be a very simple deception. The more recent wonders of tlio samo kind also have been wholly deprived of their miraculous character. There are. however, instance!) of singular responses made by the "mediums" to certain questions evidences of knowledge of things pecu liarly intimate and personal, which are cu rious and surprising, and for the explanation ol which the key seems not to have been found. These, however, may fairly be class ed with all well-attested phenomena of the uijiiii sniu ui nature. nu as many other apparently inexplicable phenomena occur ring at the same time nnd under tlio same circumstances are attributed by the opera tors to spiritual agencies, but prove to bo tho result of exceedingly material forces, it is illogical to assume that tho rest cannot havo a similar explanation. Many, fortunately requiro noue. Tho poetry of the departed Shakspeare and the wisdom of tho translated Bacon or Franklin aro plainly duo to lunar Influences not in heaven, but upon earth. Consolation administered by spry table legs and assurances of immortality proceeding from tambourines happily do not cry for ex planation. They explain themselves. Sig- nor Blitz could give such spirits the odds and win the game. One of tho recent avatars was that of a woman, who, being tied fa3t, was in some manner waited upon by mysterious agencies which did what no living person could do who did not use arms, hands, feet or body As usual, tho things wero done behind a serene. The "spirits" arc not content with their own invisibility. Tho laws of tho spiritual world, it seems, requiro that the medium through whom they manifest them solvis should be invisible also.

Doubtless there aro many honest people who went to tlio ex iiitiiiinns ot 1110 medium, paying money at the door, and who camo away firmlv con viuccd that they had witnewd superuutura phenomena. For how could a woman witl her hands tied behind her back thrum a guitar, put a pail upon her head, drive a nail into a board, blow a flageolet, or tlo a knot iu a band around her neck ? These woro precisely tho questions which .Mr. w . Irving Bishop undertook to answer, That such things could bo done by spirits ho did not propiHo to question. Ho would onlv show that they could bo dono by men and women also, if ho could do this, tho "su pernuturi.1" would vanish, and the "mo dlum would bo compelled to prove that they wero not none by ner clever self behind tht screen. If, again, sho could not provo this she must bo constdeicil as an exnosed hum bug, and "spiritualism" would have severely suiiereu, us when poor Katie King yielded ta tlio plttlloa coiifessloa of Mrs. Somebody in Philadelphia. Mr, Irving Hishop did what lie promised. In company with committee of well-known citizens of New 1 ork of high eh,ractor, ho appeared upon tho platform at Chickcring Hall. Ho was placed in a chnlr, and his bauds wero tied closely to a ring in a postbehlud him. and his neck was. tied to another, as If he were about to undergo the punishment of tho gar- rote. ill feet were also tied together by ropo, tho end of which was held by a iec tlor. A tambourine was then laid uihm nu lap, with ueveral toll. ud. like th "medium," he was then hidden by a curtain drawn ueiorp mm, Instantly tho tambour iuo ri'wuudfd, the toll rant, nud, Lqtli Uu. bourine and bells camo flying over the cur tain, which was at once withdrawn, and Mr, Hlshnp was found closely tied. It was obvi ously mysterious, and probably tho work of sjiirita. Perhaps Plato nnd Galileo Were thus illustrating the immortality of tlio soul. A board with a nail and hammer wax laced by his side, tho curtain was drawn, and Instantly hammering was heard. Tho rtaln was pulled back ; Mr. Bishop was tied close, and the spirits had hammered tho nail fast Into the board, A pail was placed pon his tap, tho curtain drawn to supply the proper spiritual conditions, and the next moment ho was seen with tho pail, llkc'n ight-cap, upon his head, A doll was cut from paper, a guitar was plavcd, water was drunk from a tumbler on his knee, while his feet were held fast and his neck tied close to a ring behind him. Atl was done behind 11 screen, nnd If it was not spirits, what was it? It is the question which very honest and intelligent and scientific men havo asked. No man bound in this inannor could possibly do theso things. Hut they are dune. No human collusion is possible. What docs them ? "My bauds." answered Mr. Hishop. And forthwith, bound as ho was, and in full view of the audience, he re peated what ho had done behind the curtain and showed that it was due to suppleness, agility, great quickness, and self-possession.

A gentleman is a person not merely acquainted with rer tain forms ami etiquette of life, easy and self-possessed in society, able to ftpeuk aiid move iu the world without awkwardness, and freo from habits which are vulgar uml iu bad taste. A gentleman is something be yond this ; that which lies at tlio root of every Christian virtue. It is tho thoughtful desiro of doing in every instance what others should do unto him. IIo Is constantly thinking, not, indeed, how he may give pleasure to others for the mero sene of pleasing, but how ho may avoid hurting their feelings. When ho is iu society he scrupulously ascertains the position and re lations of every ono with whom ho comes iu contact that he may give to each his due. honor, bis proper position. lie studies how ho may avoid touching In conversation on any subject which may needlessly hurt tiieir feelings how be may abstain from allusions, which may call up n disagreoablo or oll'en- give association. A gentleman never alludes and never even appears conscious of any de fect, bodily deformity, Inferiority of talent, of rank, of reputation, in the person lu whoso society he is placed. He never as sumes any superiority to himself, never rid icules, never Bticers, never boasts, never makes a display of hit own power, or rank, or advantages such as is implied in habits, or tricks or inclinations, which may bo of fcusivo to others.

On Dupont street, between Sacramento and Clay streets, there are not less than fifty basement apartments devoted to tousorial operations. At first blush the wonder aiises why so many of tboso establishments nro needed ; but stand on the streets iu the quar ter and glance at tho head of eaeli passing Chinaman and the mystery is dispelled. Among them no toilet is considered complete which does not involve a shaving of 11 great er portion of the head and neck, n thorough cleansing of tho eyes, ears and nostrils, ran.d even a trimming and penciling-of thet eye brows and lushes. Itnzors, probe", and lan ces of peculiar construction, are among iho instruments used by these skillful artists. The process of shaving and e'teniising is ne cessarily a long one, and when a Chinaman emerges from one of there shops he may bo safely counted as thoroughly clean aboyo tho shoulders Tim combing nnd braining of cues consumes no Iitile time. Every Chinaman of adult years regards nn occa sional temsorinl experience as a sacred duty. The closely shaven head must bo scraped over often to preserve tlio appearance eo much desired, and all this, in a place tn populous as tho "quarter" in this city, re quires tho constant service of n ntimerpus force.
