I wont out, and when I came np to Dodder he
said defendant had thrown stones atb >“' btttb ®
had managed by jumping and dodging not to
have any. hit him.
The testimony here closed.
The defendant then proceeded to snrn up the
cause. His honor dropped his pen, the jury
leaned forward, the members of the bar were
Winking and nodding across to one another, and
a universal tittering pervaded the room. He
commenced, and his sharp, shrill voioe drowned
all .? Gentlemen of the JnrytThinis the fire,
time I was ever in such a pickle—never did 1
before appear before ft jury of my country.
This Mr. Dodder has brought me here, »nd I
hare to appeal to yon, not knowing whether you
are Woolly Heade, Bitver Greye, Hard Bhellaor
Boft Shells. Yet 1 think this Dodder will find
ont before I am through that I am a harder
shell than he imagined.
You know, gentlemen, that I am in the em
ploy of the Mongaup Valley, Forrestburgan
Point Jervis Plankroad Company, as a
fn my'inteEri\VaT3sty'to“a b e a e mein that
ifcHvar/.::HSS
me and the company, and its none of Dodder 8
hnainoss Now, when the company Bent me up
nlong thiß road to oolleot tolls, thu Dodder was
one of the inhabitants Ifaund there m ‘Ar iroorfi
and I will say for him that he is a very fair
specimen of the rest of the population. But
therTtsn’t any of them that seem to appreciate
all the benefits of this plankroad.
It let out to civilisation a olaaa of people who
never before had the idea there was suoha thing
as civilised live, and this Dodder te one them^
It is n fact that Boon after I moved up there, a
young woman, sixteen years old, cum down ont
of the mountains on the plank road oce day
and she had never been out before. She fairly
Beemcd surprised to see a whsteman, and after
S a few questions went back into the
wood!. This Dodder was my nearest neighbor
and a good deal nearer than I wanted him, and
I hadn’t been thero long before 1 5*
had been lying about me to one of the directors,
„d fsoo/found out that he wanted to get h.s
son, who has sworn against me, in wy, place.
But he haen’t done it yet, and if yon don t con
vict me, I reokon he won’t very soon
It won’t take long to dispose of Dodder No. 1.
He testifies that he saw me throw three Btones
at his father, and saw “ the old man dodge.
On cross-examination he says that he was in bis
own house in the woods, and had to look over a
hill twenty feet high, and also over three slab
ftnoel and two stole’ walls. Wall! if he tel a
the truth, aU I wish is that I had young Dod
der’s eyes. Ho is certainly a remarkable boy,
and oan’t deny his “Jather."
I am willing to admit that I done wrong in
throwing stones at Dodder, andlapologise to sit
the world, and this county partionlarly; for U..
The dootors tell us there are two oauwe for all
dUeasea, predisposition and excitability. i
think it was tho latter cause that moved me to
at ™Uwrefo” confeSß myself guilty of. the as
eault tut the battery 1 deny ’ and if yen find
me guilty of the battery, I will appeal from the
decision to the Court of high Heaven itself, be
fare I will submit to it. ~ ,
Now, gentlemen, you Baw Ur. Dodder and
heard him swear upon me. I asked bun a great
many questions, and I was sorry to hear him an
ewer as he did. I might have naked him more
questions —I might have asked him if he didn t
kill my cat, and if he didn’t Btone my
because they tresspassed in his woods, where
actually the rocks arc eo thick that the cite oan t
find their way up through them; but then I
k ew he would deny it, and it would grieve me
to*hear him. He admits that he was driving my
three cows up tho road, and that ho struck at
’em but says it was with s small switch. I have
nroved that this Bwitch was a pole about ten feet
long and about two inches across the butt end,
and I have nlso proved that when he struck, tho
cow fell. It is true my witness couldn t swear
that the stick hit her, he was so far off, but take
the blow and tho fall together and we can guess
the rest. If you, genilcmaa, should eeo the 1
flaeh ami hear the report, and at the same time
see the man drop, 1 think yon would say that I
shot him, although you might not see the ball
fact ia, gentlemen, that on Sunday, I
wae lying on my lounge in my house, when my
wife said that Dodder was chasing my cows. 1
inmned op and pulled on my boots and went out
of doors, and Baw Dodder and the cows coming
np tho road. It is true he Bays he wasn t dnv
ing them, but saye he and the cows were both
suing along the road in one direction, and this
las as near as I could get him to the oews or to
the truth : but it is proved that the cows were
going along ahead of him, and he was following
after them, striking at them with his Utile
ewitoh, ten feet long and two inches across the
butt, and I reokon you’ll think he was driv
ing ” them. I sung out to him: Dodder
stem but he didn’t mind my order and I just
threw a stone in that direction, whtoh went
about fifteen feet over hie head, at the same
time going toward him. He paid no attenUon
and 1 sung ont again “ Dodder stop ! Bull I be
didn’t mind me, and then I just threw another
stone: bet on he came, and on I went, and 1
threw the third etone, which he says hit him on
the back of the neck, but whtoh l think is■rath
ar Btrange, as wo were going towards each oth
er as fast as we oould go. Bat he never slacked
np and by this time were within about eight feet
of eaoh other. I halted and halloed at the top
Of my voice : “ Dodder, why in h—l don t you
stop About thon he did stop and raised his
ten foot switch as if to strike me. 1 sang ont:
“ Mr. Dodder, look out! Yon may wollup my
cows,’ but if yon wollup me with that switch,
yon’ll wollop an animal that 11 hook.
the orator made an appropriate gesture of the
head, ae in the act or hooking, which was fol
lowed with tumultuous shouts and laughter,
that continued several minutes.]
Now gentlemen, if you oonvict me, this court
can fine me $260 and jag me for Bix months, and
if yon really think I ought to be convicted of
this assault, say so, for lam in favor f f living |
*p to the laws, aB long as they are laws, wheth- (
er it is the fugitive slave law, the Nebraska bill,
or.the excise laws. I will read you a Uttle law,
however, which I have just seen ■“ “ book I
found here —(the speaker picked np a law book I
and read as follows Every man has a ngfit
to defend himeelf from personal violence. .Now
I don’t know whether that is a law or not, but 1
find it in a law book, [a veteran member of the
bar who was sitting near the speaker, remarked
to him that it was a goed law.] Well, gentle
men, here ia an old man who looks as if he might
know something, and says ’tis good law. Now
if you will turn to Barbour something, page ooJ,
you’ll find that the same doctrine is applied to
cattle —[great laughter.] Therefore I take
had a right to defend my cows against Dodder’s
ten foot switoh. Wby, gentlemen, nearly all my
wealth is invested in them three oows, and you
oan’t wonder thnt I became a little exoited when
I saw Dodder switching them wilh this ten foot
nole lam a poor man and have a large family,
consisting of a wife and six children, whioh I
reokon la doing very well for eo small a man as
I am, and I oould not afford to let Dodder kill
my oows. .
Now, gentlemen, I don’t believe yon’ll oonvict
me, after what I have said. But if you do, and
this court fines me $250, I shall repudiate,
beoauee I oan’t pay. And if I’m jugged for six
months why these Dodders will have it all their
own way up here. But notwithstanding all this,
I am willing to risk myself in your hands;
and if you think I ought to have stood by and
not done anything when I Baw Dodder hammer
ing my cows, why then I am “ gone in,’ toll

THANKSGIVING DAY.
Tho observance of a day of Thanksgiving in
the antnrandf each year, has now beoome a per-
manent. ouetom of all the States of the Union;
and, this year, >1 was adopted in England. Tho
Ist of Ootober was Thanksgiving Day in the
British empire.
This custom origins ted vith the Pori tans of
New England ; and its evident propriety has led
to ita universal adoption in the States of the
Union; and it may yet become a oustom of all
Christian nations. It is a pnblio acknowledge-
ment of dependence upon a kind Providenoe;
and a token of gratitude for the bounties and
blessings bestowed by his hand in the year that
is closing. I
Though tho drought diminished tho crops, and (
many disasters on sea and land have occurred, ,
yet the people of thia oonntry have causes for ]
thankfulness thie year beyond all other nations- (
The English people have observed a day of I,
thanksgiving; yet their nation is involved in aI,
_war in which probably twenty thousand lives of I
of their young and strong men have already 1
been saorifioed; and by which their taxes, here- I
tofore agrevious harden, have greatly increased. 1
That war probably has but jtet commenced; and
it threatens to become tho mOBt bloody and ter- J
rihle in tho p""dt of Europe. To that conflict, |
aod all its apprehended consequences, the Eng-1
lieb nation, already over-burdened with debt, is I
committed beyond recall. The Amerioan people
may well be thankful for their exemption from I
the perils and disasters of that widi-opread and I
sanguinary contest. They are at peaoe, as yet,
with all the world; and no powerful adeereary 1
threatens to disturb us in the enjoyment of the |
fruits of our nations! industry. While half the |
people of the world are involved in the oalami-1
tics of war, wo cau pursue the arts of pesos j
| iVwith none to molest or msks ns afrsid.” The 1
injustice and insolenoe of foreign despots, jeal-1
00*01 onr growth and. prosperity, mey occasion
ally excite apprehension that a resort to arms
will be foreed upon os. But speedy reparation,
as in a reoent and notable instance, generally
follows.
.' Ameriosns mey well be thankful for that un
exampled prosperity with which thiß nation has
beta blessed for many yeare. Its territory hss
been doubled in half a century; its population
■ quadrupled; and i‘ a wealth an hundred-fold in
• creased; and the intelligence and enterprise of
: its people have kept pace with its material ad
vancement! From an humble condition of colo-
Dial dependent, it baa, in three-fonrtha of a
century, beoonie one of the strongest, wealthieet
and freest nations of tho-worid; and yet scaroe j
half its domains are occupied, or half its soil
brought under full cultiration. I's future is as
full of hope and promise ai its past has been of
the triumphs of industry, intelligence and free
dom. In its martellous progress tho hand of a
benofioent Proridence can every where be recog
nized ; and an annual offering of public thanka
giring well becomes a Christian nation so highly
favored.
The past year has been called a year of disas
ters Yet many of the evils that have occasioned
alarm and gloomjpay prove blessings in the end.
If boundless prosperity heretofore had engen
dered pride and boundless extravaganoe, a year
of short crops and some financial embarrasment
may teach a needed lesson of economy and re
trenchment.
But while short orops may produce high prices ,
of food, and occasion mach distress to the poor,
there is yet enough food in the country for the
BUBtsnanoe of all, and money enough in the
ooautry to relieve all its indu trial interests and
enterprises from permanent embarrasment.
Few nations can say as much this year. Abun
dant os the English crops were at firflt supposed
to b<\ their journals report what they call “fam
ine prices" for food. While this country has
known no famine, it has often fed the starving
people of other lands, and even this year it may
have some food to spare. At any rate, none in
this country need suffer for food, if the rich and
prosperous will help the poor.
We have cause for thankfulness this year,
then, in our happy exemption from tho evils of
the disastrous conflicts in whioh so many other
nations are involved; in a sufficient supply of
food; and in the prospect that tbo embarrae
menta of our financial and business interests,
may be but temporary, and soon give plaee toj
all our aoonstomsd prosperity.
But there is one duty to be performed on;
Thanksgiving day that, this year especially*
should bo willingly and liberally performed. It
is customary on that day to make collections in
all the churohes for the relief of the poor. Hone
who can spare it will have oause to regret the
loss of a dollar, or five or ten, devoted to auoh a
benevolent purpose. “•
THE GAZETTE and ITS CLIBNT.g
Xouis Napoleon has played a shabby triok on
his organ in Pittsburgh. He ordered Mr. Boule
oat of France. Tho Qaztft* and its Washington
correspondent fell to work at onoe to prove that
the Emperor had done right. Just about the
time they had'got the case much oat to their own
Batißfaotioa and nobody’s else, the Emperor him
self comes out and acknowledges he was wrong.
We heard of a lawyer once who was defending
a negro on a charge of stealing a pig. He ar
gued quite eloquently to the court and jury that,
from the testimony and character of the pris
oner, he was not, and conld not be guilty. Af
ter he had got through, and pledged his person
: al reputation for the innooence of his client, the
prisoner took a notion that by acknowledging
bis gniit he would get a lighter sentence ; so he
jumped up and admitted that he stole the pig.
The lawyer left in a hurry.
8o with the GaztUe. After proving his client
—the Emperor—-right in his copduot towards
our Minister, the Emperor acknowledges he was
wrong. It was all right for him to make a clean
breast of it; but he has got his friend of the
Gcselte into an awkward fix.

We suggest this plan. The Howard Associa

and that sooiety rent a store, and open a pro

somethfog for.provisions, aall to them as far be
low cost as the foods contribnted will justify.
Ascertain as soon as possible, the amount of
funds that can be* raised: and then it will be
known how muoh food and fnel can be given
away or sold under cost The ward committees
of the association can ascertain who are ehtitlrd
to relief, and give certificates. Buck a plan has
been tried elsewhere with sueosss. It is upon
a somewhat similar plan that the French gov
ernment gives aid to the indigent of Paris.
This work ought to be commenced at once.

Fahaticibk o» Bora Sinus.—The riolent lan
guage and conduot of the Abolitionists of the
north awakens occasionally equally fanatical
language and opinions in the south. The
Charleston (8. C.) Mercury, is now adrooating
are opening of the elan trade. We hare not
seen its lead followed by any other papers. The
Mercury has a right to express what opinions it
j thinks proper ; but that the Blare trade will erer
be retired by law in this country is simply an
absurdity. The current of public opinion, both
north and south, is tending in quite the oppo
site direction. We hare no doubt that if a bill
to that effect was introduoed into Congress next
month the southern members themeelres would
rote it down, three to one, without any help from
I the north._ _ r ,
Ho». Richaud BWdhxad.— We hare receired
from this gentleman a eolnme containing the re

The great number of deaths that oooux on those
ships has awakened public attention to the sub
ject, and th* Senate appointed a committee to
inrestigate the causes, with a riew to some legis
lation relatire to the management of Teasels en
gaged in the passenger trade. It is certainly
needed. It is but a short time since a ship ar
rired, and reported haring lost forty out of one
hundred and sixty-three emigrant passengers.
I Suoh oases are not unfrequent; and undoubtedly
| oould be in a great measure prerented by Btrin-
I gent legislation.

Were starring feudal slaves; religion was main* .
iy superstition; ignorance waa dense and morals
wefe debased ; and little control was set upon
the passions. Vessels with dead crews drift
ed abont in the Mediterranean, and brought
corruption and infection to the shores on
which they stranded. In what spirit did the
people, superstitious as they were in those old
times meet the calamity 1 Many committed
euioide in frenzy. Merchants, and noh men
seeking to divert the wrsth of Heaven from
themselves, carried their treasures to the
chnrches and moußteries, where, if the monkß,
fearing to roceive infection with it, shut their
gates against any Bnoh offering, it was desper
ately thrown to them over their walls. Even
sound men corroded by anxiety, wandered about
livid as the dead. Housee quitted by their in
habitants tnmbled to rains. By the plague and
the flight of terrified inhabitants, many thon-1
sand villages were left absolutely empty, and si
lent as the woods and fields. The Pope, in
Avagnoa, was forced, because ell the church
yards were full, t o oonseorats as a banal place
the river Rhone, and insure to the faithful an
interment, if not in holy ground, at least in holy
water How the dead were carted out of towns
for burial in pits, and how the terror of the peo
ple ooined the fanoy that, through indecent
haste, many wore hurried.oot and thrown into
those pits while living, every one knowe—it was
the Incident of plague at all times. Italy wao
reported to have lost half its inhabitants. The
Venetian* fled to the islande and forsook their
city, losing three men to four ; and in Padoa,
when the plague ceased, two-thirds of the in
habitants were missing. This is the black
death, which began towards the olobo of the
year 1848 to ravage England, and of which
Antony Wood eayo, extravagantly, that at the
olpae of it, scarcely a tenth part of the people
tmained living-

Washisotok, November 17.— The latest news
from the West Indies represents the concentra
tion of a considerable British fleet In the harbor
of Ore;town, in anticipation of another visit
from the American squadron in those seas. This
statement is probably well founded, but I hare
reason to believe that negotiations are going on
here, which hare progressed so far as to remote
ail danger of a oollision between the naval forces
of the two countries, at least ae far as any ques
tion regarding Central Amerioa is oonoerned.
The pressure from without has brought about
a better understanding between the negroes and
mnlattoee of Hayti and the mulattoes of Domini
on The French consul, in order to prevent the
occupation of Samanu by the Americans, has
suggested an agreement by which Dominica will
become a semi-independent State of the Haytien
empire, reserving to itself the choice of ita own
rulers and the management of ita looal aflalra,
and more especially of its religion, which has
heretofore been the chief bone of contention be
tween the eastern and western ends of the is
land. If this arrangement be oonsnmmated, it
will nip in the bod the inoiptent treaty for the
partial annexation of Dominion to. the United
States, and will bring to a prematura olose the
miesiou of Mr. and Mrs. Casneau among the free
colored republicans of the west end.
g sow is Cas ana.— Persons from Quebeo re
port that there has been excellsnt sleighing ut
that vicinity since the first of the present month.
At the latest dates thoro was every indication
that the usual flve months’ sleighing would be
enjoyed the present season by the residents of
lower part of Canada East- , f .
Ton Lost Tbxasck*. — We understand that
the treasure ($153,000) Bhipped by Page, Bacon
& Co., on the Yankee Blade, wae insured at $l.
per ounce; eo that the house will lose only
$6,000 by the accident. It is thought that the
speoie will never be recovered.
MoEJtoKa i3J Kassab. —A mormon settlement
is beiog made in Kaosas. About 2,000 families
go out in charge of Elder Erastas Snow, one of
the Twelve, to a point aboat 100 miles treat of
the town of Kansas.
Hsavt Daks Robbsbt. —The Windham Bank,
of Windham, Conn., was robbed on the night of
the 17th inet. of twenty-two thousand dollars.
This is the most extensive depredation of this
charaoter that has occurred for a long time.
The Northern” Bee, of St. Petersburg, pub
lishes a list of voluntary contributions made by
the inhabitants of Taganrog and Roatoff, to buy
ships to sink, in order to block up the Kertch
Straits, leading from the Black Soa to the Sea
of Aaoff. The subscriptions amounted to up
wards of £20,000 sterling.
The year 18W began on Sunday, jand will end
on Sunday, thus‘haring Sundays.
January, April, July, October aqd December
hare each fire Sundays- Such an- array of
Sundays, it Is said, will not occur again until
1882. _
