Judge Davis was traveling on his circuit and while holding court in one of the interior towns was impressed with the woeful visage of a defendant, whose cose being called, arose himself and asked for a postponement, because his lawyer was absent. The Judge permitted the case to go over for a day. The next day, when the case was called, the defend ant's lawyer was still absent; but the de fendant, who was an honest old farmer, was permitted to conduct his side of the case himself. This was his plea to tho Jury: "I'll tell you the whole story. Me and my mother have lived on that farm for nigh on forty years. It's all she's got In tho wide world. It wasn't much of a place when she got It, and It ain't a fancy farm now, but it all me and mother have. My father died the year the war broko out and we burled him under the big apple tree in the medder. Three of our boys went Into the war and left me with mottier. Hiram, he got killed down In Missouri. They sent him home and we laid him under the apple tree. John was shot at Fort Donel son, and me and mother burled him. Then Thomas he got taken prisoner, and the rebels kept him In Andersonville prison nigh on ten months until he was nothln' but skin and bone. Me and mother went to meet him when he got exchanged, and If you bolleve. me, Judge, I did not know that boy, nor mother neither. We brought him back .to the old place, howsumever, and tried to get him well, but 'twarnt no good. He sickened and sickened and died, and thar he is under the apple tree. Now, judge, me and mother set aj lot o' store by the old place, and 'twould Just about kill the old lady, let alone me, If we lose It. Of course we owe the money, and we'd Co most anything to pay it, but I leave It to you, judge, and you men on the jury. If they ought to take that farm away from us." In telling the story Judge Davis said: "Before that fellow got through al most everybody In the court had tears in their eyes. One of the ablest lawyers In the state was counsel for the plaintiff, and there was nobody except the defendant and myself on the other side, but, by Jove, we won the cose and those people kept their farm." AN OBJECTION: "Yes," said Mrs. Hunnlmune, "she seemed like a very good-natured and ca pable servant. Buf I couldn't keep her." "Was the work too hard for her?" "No. She said the place was Just to her liking In most respects. There was only one ODjecuon. "What was that?" "My clothes wouldn't lit her."-Washlng- ion eiar.

Sala's recently published Rem iniscences an entertaining anecdote is told of Lady Harriet D'Orsay. She was presiding at a stall at a vente de charlte, or bazar, held In aid of the fund of some asylum or another when there came up tho Duke of Orleans, son and heir of King Louis Phllllppe. Tho duke, after some polite small talk, began to extol the beauty of her hair, and. Indeed, her Henrietta Maria coiffure had never looked gloHBler and softer than it did this day. "Oh," said his royal highness, "if I could only possess one of those charming ringlets!" "How much would monselgneur give for one?" asked Lady Harriet, gravely; "5,000 francs?" "Five thousand francs!" re peated the duke. "A mere bagatelle." "Six thousand francs?" "Anything so charming lady chose to ask." "I will not be extortionate," pursued Lady Harriet; "we will say 6.000." And then she very composedly produced a dainty little pair of scissors, snipped off the adorable Hen rietta Maria ringlet, wrapped It tn a silver paper and handed It with dignity to the duke. His royal hlghnes looked very straight down his nose and, returning Lady Harriet's salute, stalked somewhat gloomily away. But his privy purse duly forwarded the money next day. Dr. Burton and Dr. Oage were ministers of two Congregational churches and ex cellent friends. Like many other reverend gentlemen, they loved a Joke, especially at each other's expense.

Not long after Dr. age's house was entered by a burglar. Dr. Oage was giving Dr. Burton an ac count of the affair.
