The ease of Major Halos and Fenton, in Ireland, in which the formekgen9ealail Was shot, is nit illustration. The Judge: in sum ming up the evidence, said to the jury: ".Gen tlemen, it is my business to lay down the law to you; and I will. The taw says the killing a man in a - duel is naurde,r 7 and lam bound to tell yoti it is murder; therefore, in the.dis charge of my duty, I tell You sot but I tell you, at the same 'time, a fairer duel thmi this I never heard of in the Whole course of my lifer Two physiciani, 'by the ini'me of Mead and 'Woodward, fought in - Englantcana the . latter slipping, his opponent exclaitned—"Take your lifei." To which the prostrate Galen re• plied, "Anything but your physic." • "Old Pat," one of the heroes of our revolu tion, was very odd also in his ideas of the dock. He agreed to meet a British officer at a specified place and hour, without seconds. When k Briton repaired to the spot he was greeted by a shot from "Old Put," lying'' in perdu about. thirty rods off. While "Put" was re-loading, the—officer approached and 'asked, "what are you about to do? Is this the conduct of an American officer and a man of honor?" "What am I about to doi" replied the General: "A 'pretty question to put to a man you intend to murder I about to kill you; and if yon doe% beat a retreat in less time than it takes old Heath to . hang' a tory, you are a get,ue dog." The o ffi cer fled. . • The old Volfaunter accepted another challenge from a British officer. .At the ap pOinted time and spot the officer found him seated near a barrel—apparently of gunpow der—smoking a pipe. He asked the English man to sit on the other side of the barrel, and remarking that "thePe'Was, an ettiial. chance for both," set fire to the match. The officer retreated in a hurry, when Old Put laughed ut him; saying—"you are just as brave a man as I took you to be; this is nothing but a bar ref of onions to try you by';‘ but you don't like the smell."

DEFINITE: CoNewitoN.—Noah was unfortunate enough in hi's old age to be come addicted to rather strong potations, and when under the intluence of spirits was more . than usually re*ious. Now, on Saturday af ternoon, baking day, his Wife, who was a very iodo*trioo old 144 y, and in every way a mod.. elhouse,wifc, asked Noah to go into the yard and split some wood to heat the ove Noah concluded before he set al..* it, to istarcotf tothe tavern and "imbibe," Wherebv, of course, the baking was neglected. Coming back in a short time, and utterly oblivious of his good woman's request, he seated himself' in the old chair. Noah was very much attach -ed to 113*, : , old. chair, ,for like him, age had 'n'iadeViotter in the legs and somewhat weak in the hack. "Wife," said he, "wife, do you think the Lord in his goodness (hic) kin send vs into the fire everlastin'?" Mrs. this time made no answer. . "Wife, (hie) do you think the Lord means (hic) to burn us all (hie) in fireeverlastin'?" This was more than human patience could endure, and she could .not hold her tongue any-longer; she'd speak out if she died for it: "No! yer, old fool yerl ,iot if he we itsfrryou to split the wood. " ' Mr' A ctinCvmAN in one of our neighbor- i ing towns wished to move one of his buildings a short distance; and took the hereinafter Men tioned cheap and convenient method of aecom -4 plishidg his' purpose. The Sabbath before ; Thanksgiving he read, as usual, the .Gover ' nor's an anal Proclamation fora day of Thanks-,1 'giving and praise. .After giving notice of a meeting to be,held in the forenoon, and add. ing his own persmal request to that of the Ex ttetitie for his congregation to refrain from all labor on the day, designated, he closed in this wise: "If any of the brethren are - at lei stre in the afternoon, I should be pleased to ec theM at my house, ms!

These prices and conditions are not withheld from the convicts. Thus knowing how and for what they am working, they strive to make all the overwork in tittle power, and are the more profitable to the County. In view of these facts, we have taken steps to procure the necessary legislation foe authority to resnovefrom the Penitentiary the remaining convicts there flout oureoan. ty—which action we hope the court will Nu:idiom. We have only three convicts there now. The sentence of one will expire 1n this,*yetar, the ether two we propose to."' move t. their sentences will expire in %SS and 1859. STATEMENT A shows the amount expended fbr pur poses unconnected with either maintenance (restock, and is theretnre designated as the general expense account. STATEMENT B shows the expenses for maintenance, Or forall the provisions purchased during the year.

Deducting the amount of prison costs, de. received by the keeper, and by hint paid Into the County Treas ury, the cost of maintenance Is reduced to a fraction over 12 emits per day. STATEMENT G exhibts the amounts expended for fuel for the last two years, repairs, printing, light and medicine. It will he perceived that these expenses were very light: particularly the fuel aeconnt. STATEMENT D exhibits the salary account of officers. STATEMENT 41,the stock account, from which It ap pears that a nett profit of $2.996 14 was realized. :STATEMENT V. the Weper's cash account. It will thus be perceived that the cost of maintaining a. prisoner per day, exceeds that of last year about 3 cents. This is accounted for by the high prices of provisiom. such as potatoes, hoef and flour. Nevertheless, the pro ceeds of profits exceed those of last year, and in therrhole exhibits a" mere favorable result—leaving a balance of $1,03 10, after paying for the provisions and ofileene sala ries. l'cr insiahce.
