my pay! The law provides a way to obtain
it, and I mean to have it, at once if possible.

he can appear so cheerful and resigned un
der such a burden of affliction and discourag,e

leans for sopport.upon an arm that is strong
to uphold the care-worn and sorrowing chil

broken; your views and aims assume that

of culture and expansion, while the ages of

what privations the poor often endure. Above
the drear regiono of want, the children-of

Squintang Jury.
The Washington News records the following I
ROI ts-iot-teminisence:
Once upon a time, or, to be 'a little more
particular, nearly half ecentury ago; 'there
dwelt in the Vitro of in old England, a
remarkable* oddity, in the person of an at
torney-at-law, who, although not fair to look
upon, (for be was, in truth, one of the home
liest spktiimens of humanity ever beheld by
mutat man,) was withal person of sound
judgment, great benevolence, varied learning,
a poet,* painter, and a wit of no mean order.
It solappened that the aforesaid gentleman,
G El., was appointed Wei
Sheriff of the town of a man
of fortune, and bad a kind heart, as many a
poor . prisoner could to:wily who partook of
the scrod swhi.ts sho
were liberally supplied at Christmas acid
other well-known festivals, from the ?fixate
house of the High She.itl.
• It was,' of course the duty - of the Be
Sheriff to summon a Grand and Pe•it Jury,
to attend at the Qurter Sessions, of which
the Recorder, Mayor" and Aldermen of the
borough composed the Court. In the. pei
fornianee of Ins official•duty in summoning
the Petit Jury, our IligirSheritT indulged in
sortie of the drollest and strangest freaks that
have probably ever been hard of in any'otb-
er town or country. _
In the first place; be summoned for the
October Court a Jury con-hting of twelve of
the fattest men be could find iu 'Me - borough,'
and when they carne to the book to be
- sworn, it appears that only nine -jurors could
sit comfortably in ...the box ! Alta' a good
deal of sweating, squeezing and scolding, the
pannel was litterally jammed into the box't
and, when rested, they pre•ented to,the eye of:
the Court, the barristers and audience, the
" tightest fit!' of &jury that was ever;Seen in
a court-room.
_Literally, they became, much
to the truitusement of the court and its robed
advocates, "a packed jery," aud no mistake.
For the January term, our facetious High
Sheriff (in consequence, it was said, of some
hint from the Recorder that there should be
Edmore fat pannela summoned to pis Court,)
went to the opposite extreme. He sornmoned
twelve of the leane-t and t illestNinan he could
find . in the borough ; /and when they
,took
their cents in the bux, it appeared compara
tively empty=there was . indtei room enough
fur twelve inure of the same sort and dimes-
At the AO] term of the• Court, our hu
morous functionary summoned a jury con
sisting
of twelve barbers! ,I , tow, it happened
that among the, latter were the very petru
quiers who dressed the Recorder and barris
tem' wig and, come of the latter, arriving
lattiat the bar, had to appear that morning
in court with their . wigs undres4ed, so as to
cat a very ridiculous figure, amid the millet=
the rgtt tent Lriy,4ergth Innr4ry,
but looked "grave as a Judge," a bile be toed
to keep silence in the coin roam.
But the crowing joke of this waggish fun
tionary occurred at the summoning of bib t
-
fourth and last jury at the summer session in
For that term of the Court, the High
Sheriff, not having the fear of the Recorder, the
the ildaydiV, and the Aldermen before his eyes,
actually summoned a squinting jury, twelve
as queer looking bipeds us ever took their
rear; in the jury box—a jury that was pro
bahly more looked at and laughed at than
any of, the appointed twelve that everyvere
. sworn to "well and truly. try, and true de
liverance make, between their Sovereign bard
the King and the prisoner at the bar." .
But the scene was so irresistably droll that
the learned Border could not maintain his
gravity. The,Mayor and Alder Men followed
suit;-. The barristers laughed while their gigs
'became bald, powderless; nay,, even the poor
prisMaers in the dock, who were 'to be put
upon their trial,'arnd some of them to undergo
~transportation, could not refrain from joining
in the general oachioation. And when the
Recorder 'commanded the' ll'gb • Sheriff to
bring the court-rocFrn to order, and intimated
with a half suppressed latigholit, the latter
ought to be ashamed of himself for summon
ing such a jury, the drollery of this (mart'
scene was considerably heightened .by the
quick, read* and sonorous response of the
High. Sheriff, who. looking at the same . lima
at the squinting jury, exclaimed—" All good
and liwful.men, your honor."
But our huinorous functionary has long
since "sh'ufiled of his molts! coil."
The Slave Trade.
Is an article relating to the let reports• of
the large number of slaves tecently landed at
the South, the New Orleans Crescent says :
The Northern papers have been terribly ex
orcised about what they choose to term 'a re
opening of the African slave trade.
We have enjoyed the spectacle, and take
great pleasure at all times in .witnessiog the
contortioas or the Pharisaical friends of the
Afr:can race. We hke to see a fanatic arid
hypocrite invent a falsehood. and then irnpale,
himself upon it for the edification of the
careless public and the amusement Cell sen
sible men. It is so funny. •
Perhaps we' have helped on`the delusion
under which so many of the• free soil papers
of the North labor. If so, we shall not beg
pardon of anybody. We have alluded to the
matter on several - occasions, and assumed
neither positive nor negative ground'. Indeed
we are not sure but Mat we encouraged
the idea that the - African slave traria-was in
