A Justice of the Supreme Court recently
made use of the following language, which will
bo appreciated by many who have suffered from

"Witnesses often suffer very unjustly from the
unduo earnestness of counsel, and they aro en
tilled to the watchful protection ol the Court.
In the Court, they eland as strangers, surround

to an embarrassment known only to themselves,
and in mere generosity and common humanity,
they aro entitled to be treated, by those ac
customed to such feencs, wilh great considera
tion; nt least until it becomes manilest that
they nre disposed to be disingenuous. The
heart of the Couit and jury, and all disinter
ested manlines', spontaneously recoils at a harrh
and untair treatment ol them, and the cause
that adopts such troatmen is very apt to suffer
by it. It is only where weakness sits in judg
