STORIES ABOCrXAWTEES.
Sore Passages from Mr. JTeaOireson’s
Booh.
-We have* ‘already given some- account
of. Mf.;;Jeaffreson’s-VBook, about Law>
yers,” just 'published in TEnglandpbut
the following additional anecdotes are
. readable:
JEFFREYS AND THE FIDDLER.
“Though Jeffreys delighted in music, •
he does not sbem to have held ' it 3 pro
fessors in higfresteem.aoln the time of
Charles 11. musical artist of the humbler
grades liked to be styled ‘.musitioners; ’
and on : was
sitting as Recorder for the city of Lon
don, George Jeffreys was greatly in
censed hy-a w itnesswho, in-a- pompous
voice, called himself a musitioner. With
a sneer, the: interposed-^ 1 A
musitioner! I thought 'you were a fid-"
filer ” ‘I am a musitioner,’ the violinist
answered stoutly. ‘Oh, indeed!’-croaked
Jeffreys: . ‘This is very important—
hijffily important—exfremely import
ant!. And pray, Mr. Witness, what is
the difference between a musitioner and
a fiddler?’ ; With a fortunate readiness
the -man- answered, ‘As much, sir, as
there is between a pair of bagpipes and a
recorder.’ ” , '
BARON 1 PLATT’S TRANCE.
“Of eminent iawyers who were steady
port, wine drinkers, Baron Piatt—the
amiable and popular judge who died in
1862, aged seventy-two, years—may be;
regarded as one df the last; Of him it is
recorded that ..in early manhood he was
so completely prostrated by severe illness
that beholders judged him to be actually
dead. - Standing over-his silent- body
shortly before the arrival of the under
taker, two of his friends concurred id'
giving utterance to'the sentiment— I 'Ah,'
poor dear fellow, we shall never drink’ a
glass of wine lwitb him' again;’ when.to'
their momentary alarm and subsequent
<delight r the.dead.man interposed witha
faiiat assumption of jocularity, ‘But you
will, though, and. a good, many,- too, I
hope.’ When the undertaker called he
was sent away a genuinely sorrowful
man; and the young lawyer, who was
• ‘not dead yet’ lived to old age and good
purpose.” ,■
■ WITNESSES.
“Few stories relating to witnesses are
more laughable - than-that which de
scribes the mathematical process by
which Mr. Baron Perrot arrived at the
value of certain conflicting - evidence!.'
‘Gentlemen of the jury,’ thisjudge is re
ported to have said, in summing up the
evidence in a trial where the witnesses
had Bworn with noble tenacity of pur
pose, ‘there are fifteen witnesses who
swear that the watercourse used to flow
in a ditch on the north side of the hedge.
On the other hand, .gentlemen; there
are nine witnesses who swear that the
watercourse used tofiow on thesouth side
of the hedge. Now, gentlemen, if you
• subtract nine from fifteen, there remain
six witnesses: wholly uncontradicted;
and I recommend you to give your ver»
diet for the party who called those six
witnesses.’ ”
This process, however, was hardly so
clever as that of the Irish prisoner- ac
cused of stealing a shirt from a hedge.
“Here are three people who saw you
take it, said the magistrate. “Bad luck
to them,!” exclaimed Paudheen, “lean
bring six honester people who’ll swear
they did’nt see me take it?”
LAWYERS’ QUARRELS IST TRAVELING.
“Barristers' posting 'throtigh. the
country saw far too much of each other.
Biekerisgs and feuds arose; and some
times the ‘sad apprentices’ having or
dered the horses to stop exchanged shots
at the half-way house of a long posting
stage. Even where they restrained
themselves from expressions of hostility,
mutual self respect was utterly destroyed
by undue familiarity. No judge ever
named as guardian to his children, or
even aB executor, the brother-circuiteer
With whom he was wont to post in days
when they were at the bar. Greatly
conducive to these petty squabbles was
the irksome slowness of traveling. Of
course the lawyers in §ood practice work
ed at their papers while the posters can
tered up hill and down dale at the
average rate of eight or nine miles per
hour: but briefless juniors, unless they -
were rare and- mo3t exceptional impos
tors, could not through a long day’s
drive feign earnest application to
the statementsof dummy briefs. Usually
they shortened the hours with cards
•or dice; and’ where four men'posted
together in a double-seated coach, they
would play whist on a table made by
a plank fitted into the windows of the
■carriage. : ' ' -’ ’ -
“This custom gave rise to a painful
scandal concerning a barrister, who,
after winning'high honors in his pro
fession >is still alive. The story may be
told; but the great man’s name must be
held secret. Many years, since ,the law
yer lost an aged aiiht, whose will re
quired her body to be interred in a dis
tant part of the country. Like a dutiful
nephew, and in a manner becoming his
aunt’s .executor, the young barrister,,
together with other gentlemen (closely
connected - with. the deceased lady, by
Wood or business), journeyed from Lon
don to the place of sepulture. The hearse
•containing the embalmed body had been
sent forward, and the mounters folio wed
it at an interval of a few days’ journey.
The first day was very tedious; and as
several days would'follow it ere the
place of interment could be reached, the
nephew, on the second morning of the
dolorous expedition, proposed to his
companions in grief that they should
have' a rubber. He had cards in his
pocket, and at the next roadside inn
they could get a board that would serve
them for a table. ,
“The suggestion was unanimously
•adopted; and throughout the remainder
-of the com for flesh-progress, the mourn
-era played steadily with complete ‘in
difference to the scenery which sur
rounded them, and with. that superb de
motion to ‘the game, which character-!
izedwhiet players halfaeenturysince.
Under the circumstances the mourners
•progressed as favorably as could, be ex
pected.’ Their spirits rose; much money
changed hands; and when the four gen
tlemen stood in theold lady’smausoleum,
the two who had won were sustained
by an enlivening sense Of-Worldly pros
perity. and the two who hadlbst thirsted
for revenge on the homeward journey.
Unfortunately, however, certain local
gossips of the puritanical district where
the old lady was buried, -Jiad either seen
the mourners at whist or heard how
they amused themselves. The story
passed from mouth to mouth, and
reached. London almost as soon as .the
melancholy whist players. Of course, in
London the story lived, and year. 3 after-,
wards, when the nephew had risen to
eminence in politics and law,people were
told at dinner-parties how the great

CO.’S PATENT-GLASS CABTOB
;These wheels are designed lto Pianos, Bedsteads; 'Ac.
we claim that they, give to Pianos a greatly increased
feted of sound, without detracting from the harmony
and melody of the Instrument, rendering every! note
more distinct to the esr. This is'so apparent that they
tye now belng applied by.many to these yamalile mu
sical Instruments. Dr. Valentine Mott, previous to hit
death;pronounced the Glass Castor Wheels an In
valuable invention for bedfast invalids, who art
guarded against the damp Boors'after undergoing tht
process of cleaning, or where, dampness la .produced
from any other cause. Aside from this;
are relievedftpnrthe dread of having, their carpets cm
or torn; as frequently happens from those' now In nse
often caused b^a-rust, which adheres .with gluedlke
.tenacity. Iso such annoyance can possibly proceed
-from the Glass Castor; wheelsjlaa we: all. know? thar
glass 1b non-corrosive.. -There are no rough or umin
' lehed edgesto llie Glass Wheels, such as woollen find
In those of Iron, and the latter, though, smoothly Bn
Sd. will soon rust, from the dampness of theatmoa
re, if nothing else; producing,roughness on thesur
,or edge, while the former will always' maintain
the smoothness of glass, Inst, as they are finished.
• i By Bleeping upon glass wheels you retain all the elec
tridty yen had la your body, on retiring, and yon gel
up In the morning feeling as fresh and. active as s
youngman. Glass being a non-cohductor, the elec
tricity gained while In bed cannot pass oil; . Ask your
Vector what he thinks of the Glass'Castor Wheels
Ask him if *ll diseases, with the exception of chronic
diseases, are notr caused IrOm'the want of electricity
We have a man Jn our place whom the doctors pro.
Pounced.past curing,. with' the Inflammatory rhea
mattorn. The wheels cured, him Jn less than four
weeks. He Is today detent healthy-mail. These ore
