    Oitor Tnm Marshall.
I never but once heard Kentucky e
greatest natural orator, and Uiis oc-1
casion 60 impressed itself upon my
memory as to be indelible.
In 1S)2 a friend said to me one
day that the renowned Tom Mar-
shall was at the court house in Chi
cago, and was shortly to make a
speech in a case before the Circuit
Court I hastened to the court
room, where 1 found that the quietly-circulated
report of his presence
had accumulated a lame audience.
The case was a suit for mplicious
"lander, in which the leading Jaw3'er
for the proecntion5 was a Mr. Mar
tin, now a resident- of Wisconsin,
and one of the most genial and
pleasant centlemen one will meet
in a week's travel. Alter the old
Kcglih custom, as well as the cus
tom which prevailed to someexteut
in early days in our Eastern States,
Mr. Marshall usually bore into
court
with bias a green bag, in
he " carried his briefe, and
which
Buck law books as lie Lad occasion
to use in the trial of his cases. Of
this bag more anon.
As I entered the court room Mr.
Martin was concluding his speech
fur the prosecution. It appears that
Marshall had just been introduced
to the court as assistant counsel for
the defense, a few minutes before
Martin began his speech. It was
understood that the great Kentock
ian had been on a prolonged lark,"
and had volunteered in this case as
a mere freak, and to furnish sport
for a number of friends. Martin
was evidently disconcerted by the
appearance of such an antagonist,
and I found him making a depreca
ting appeal to the jury. " 1 warn
you, gentlemen," he said, " against
fieing dazzled by the brilliancy of
"the celebrated orator wlo is to fol
low me. I have endeavored to pre
sent you the fact in this case ; and
it behooves you to be faithful to
vour oaths, and kep your minds
- -upon
tne trulii. so as not to oe se-,
duced therefrom by the poetry that
your are about to hear."
Martian arose. He was then1
about ( years of age. and the in
tensity with which he had lived
made him look older. He was very
till, with a massive frame, and
eyes that no ace could dim, glaring
out Ironi cavernous sockets. He
raised his spectacles from his gieat
forehead, and looked from one jury
man to another until he had sur
veyed the whole group. When he
began speaking his voice was so
liut-ky that he could hardly be
heard by those nearest to him. He
had a severe cold, which had set
led upon bis lungs, and seriously
impeded his speech throughout ;
and yet before lie bad concluded I,
for one, forgot that threws itnj"
impediment to his eloquence. From
notes taken at the time, I reproduce
as nearly .is possible the substance
of his opening remarks :
Gentlemen of the jury. I have
come, before you, a stranger in a
strange community, to plead the
cause of a poor man against a con
spiracy to fix a stigma upon his
character, and to crush him with
the weight of an enormous amerce
ment, or incarcerate him in a jeni
tentiary dungeon. All unprepared
as I am, I appear, by the courtesy
of this court, to make such poor
plea as I may in behalf of a fellow
citizen of our common country.
where speech should be everywhere
as free as the air we breathe.
"The learned gentleman who has
preceded me has warned you, my
countrymen, to beware of the poet
ry that I should introduce. Gentle
men of the jury, God pity me, I am
no poet ! 1 would to heaven that I
were ! I have never made one true
rhyme. 8o much the worse for me !
I have never drunk of the Helicon
ian spring. But, gentlemen, 6ich i
the strength oi this case, and such
is the wrong attempted to be perpe
trated upon my client, that it might
will draw tears from the most cal
lous heart ; and should I, stirred by
its thrilling interest, be moved to
words of fervor, I pray you to re
member that what the distinguish
ed gentleman may call poetry
may nevertheless be the burning
truth.
" Truth, gentlemen, is coeval with
poetry both are immortal, eternal :
and it grieves me that a member of
the profession in which it is my
pride to be enrolled, and the pleas
ure of my life to serve should seek
to dissever these twin-sisters.
" When the gentle bard of Avon
tuned bis harp to strains that ech-1
oed to the farthest ends of earth and 1
rang down the listening and enrap
tured aces, did he not crystalize in
his undying verse the truths ofhu-,
man lite, and record in truth's own
essence the beatings of nature's
rhythmic heart, to be read till time
shall be no more?
" When Milton, the blind prophet
of the federation of humanity, sang
such strains as woke the conscience
of great Kngland, what but clarified,
eternal, omnipotent truth did he ut
ter, 6weet though were his measures
with the fragrance of the softest Ital
ian airs?
"And, wIxmi Iavid sang in the
courts of Jehovah-Jireh. or when
Miriam went forth with timbrel in
hand to shout over Egypt's dnrk
sea the freedom of her people, did
either of them s-ing anything but liv
ing, breathiug, glowing, heavenly
rrntK
When the morning stars sang to
gether for joy 'twas the first song of
time, the primal poem of the uni
verse. Thus you see that the Al-
mighty begun Hi grand Providence
witu'thoral harmony, which has
continued to this hour, in the roll-
ing seasons, in the requiem of htav-
lng ea and breaking surf, in the
carols of birds, and in the murmars
of rippling streams.
" The gentleman should haveris-i
eh as 1 did. th:3 morning, and gone
out to see the glorious orb of day
mount up the horizon from out of
the bosom of your sublimely beau
tiful lake ; and I ask him to gaze,
m the morrow, upon that splendid
and mftjrrtie cene,v nd then -tell
me, though it be a poem repeated
by a beneficent A 11 -Liner in his in
finite loving kindness day by day
for the comfort and delight of the
dwellers in this rarely beautiful city,
it it be any the less a radiant
truth.
May God in his mercy, and
may you, gentlemen, in your kind
ly commiseration forgive my learn
d opponent for his sacrilegious on
slaught upon tbe divine gift of
ueaven to a la.len world ; and may
ne long uve to repent h:m ot his so
great wrong. It may be that, in
me mysterious depths ol yonder
green nag, tne protound and original
counsel for the prosecution may

to or lncoiupuuoie wun irnm ; nut;aeai at times, nan discharges from
neither in my collegiate curriculum ears, unable to breathe through
nor in the course of professional ' nose. Before the second bottle 'of
practice which, as you see, is wear -
ing toward its close, bare I eyer be-
fore known such a position to be
periouflr maintained in the presence
of an intelligent jury or 01 any oin

tleinen that if he shall succeed in
(establishing this new lejral maxim a
meed of fame is in waiting for him
i beside which the bays that encircle
j tne heads of a Bacon, a Littleton, a
fYilf. a K arkRtone. or a Morv. win
wither and shrivel, and leave him
and his preen bag alone and unap
proachable in their supreme immor
tality." And Marshall then proceeded to
a review of the points in the case as
he had been enabled to gather them,
in the course of Mr.,Martin' speech,
from the eounsel for tbe iefens, and
one by one he attacked the argu
ments of the " jrentlemau of the
green bag," analyzing the whole
case ith & keeuness and vigor which
constituted a new revelation to me
in legal oratory, lie seemed to be
thoroughly wrapped. up in tbe case,
and his intense earnestness commu-
inicated itself to the audience, which
j he carried with him, nn did he also
the jury, to the end of hie wonderful
speech.
The closing of Mr. Martin was ut
terly ineffective to stern the tide of
sympathy that set in in behalf of
the defense, and the jury rendered,
if my memory serves me correctly,
a verdict for "the accused without
leaving their seats.
As Marshall was retiring from the
court-room, I heard one of ' his
friends ask him, (referring to the
passage in his speech about the sun
rise on Lake Michigan) what time
he rose that morning.
" 4 N'omore of that. Hal. as thou
lovest me ! " replied that mimitaule
Tom, grimly smiling, "You know
devilish wefl I had only gotten out
of bed, and swallowed my cocktail
and breakfast, when I came into
court" - ' - ( ' :

I ' ' A CARD.
Editor Herald : Tbe manner in
which I am assailed by Dr. B. A.
Fichtner ol Confluence in your pa
per of Nov 12, would seem to justify
a word in reply.
Tlie jSoMKTwr Counh Signal is
not printed for the purpose of pub
lishing Liquor License Petition by
the yard, but it has and will pub
lish the names of such persons as
sign fcaid petitions, not to defame or
impugn the motives of any, but
to give the public knowledge of the
men who make themselves responsi
ble for the -ale of liquor in the com
munity, and are responsible for the
inebriety caused by licensed whis
key. The nr.Csa.yJ4 "publis hed the
names of highly respectable citizens
of Confluence in a wrong connec
tion.'' If so, it is because those
names stand on whiskey papers "in
a wroDg connection." ; 1 t
If any one doubts the fact of any
names which I have published
being on License Petitions, let him
go to the Prothonotary's oflice in the
Court Hous9 and examine and read
the original petitions, from which I
obtained the name6.
Mr. Fichtner would have the read
ers of the Herald believe that fthe
and those associated with : him'-ip
helping certain applicants get their
licenses in Confluence did nothing
in that direction whatever. lie ad
mits in a former article against me
that he did sign a "letter of prefer
ence." What i3 a letter of prefer
ence but asking that a certain man
have license in preference to another
man (.?) asking for them.
I append the article which ap
pears in the Signal of November,and
which seems to have stirred the
wrath of Mr. Fichtner to a boiling
pitch, but which he utterly fails to
answer :
WHAT IS AN APPLICATION
FOR LICENSE,
DOES D.T. FICHTKEK KNOW? Our
answer is : A petition with a num
ber of names attached, requesting
the Court to grant the privilege of
selling liquor to a certain man re
siding in the same vicinity in which
the petitioners reside. If the Court
holds such Petition or Petitions over
until further iufornatiou can be ob
tained as to the fitness of the party
cr parties applying; or, for other
reasons, the license is not yet grant
ed; if citizens express their prefer
ence, and pray by certified letters
that license be granted Mr. F.,'and
other citizens express their prefer
ence similarly and pray that license
be jiranted Mr. S., and botn r. and
S. have license eranted them, what
have those citizens done but petition
ed the Court errant license to their
favorite applicant? -
"Doctor'1 vou may call it what
you please "Letters of Preference,
or l,a choice between two men.
Such expression of preierence is
nevertheless, petitioning the Court to
erant license, and such letters of
preference are whiskey papers, not
withstanding their irregular form, or
lateness of date. The applicant who
solicits the signatures to such let
ters of preference, simply renews
his efforts for license, and "in that
sense he re applies." Hence we have
no correction to make, as demanded
by Dr. fichtner, concerning our
statement in the last issue of the
Signal with regard to the applicants
at Confluence. It appears that the
Dr.. in his efforts to have olenty of
whiskey in Confluence, whether for
his own convenience or to make tne
town lively ? (deponent saith not,)
wanted the fact that he was giving
prominent assistance in that direc
tion concealed from the public, and
"got left" He will have to cover up
his tracks better than he vet has or
he is left again.

Easton, Xov. 20. Since the burn

detectives have been trying to find
out how the fire started. Late yes
teruay they found three boys John
Thomas, aged six years, Henry
Yonson, aged ten years and Frank
Keischer, aged eleven years, bad
set it on fire. The boys were taken
to the police station one at a time
and each admitted his guilt. On
the day of the fire the lads gather
ed a lot of greasy waste and crawl
ed under the depot. They then ap
plied a match and became frighten
ed and ran uwav when the fire
became so they could not extin
guish it. It was not their intention
to burn the building, but to start
saiail hre to keep them warm
While at the 6tation Keischer said
it was a good jub and that a new
depot was wanted here anyhow.

One Kind of Christiunif y.
On a holy-tlay aot long since, a la
dy teloi.ging to our "upper ten"
went to Trinity Church and seeing a
lady alone in a favorable pew went
forward and entered the pew. The
occupant looked up from her prayer
book and said : "This is my pew ;
and if others come there will be no
room for you." The lady in question
bowed and left, and on seeing only
one person directly" in front of the
seat she had just left, stepped into
the pew. At the same moment the
first Christian (?) leaned forward
and spoke u few words totheseftmd
who said to the stranger : 1 think
friends may come, who will require
these seats." Upon which the siriin
gerh?fthe second pew: and whilj
standing for a moment in the aisle
wondering if she could have made a
mistake in the church, an old friend
and one of the most distinguished
members of the congregation, open
ed bis door, inviting her to enter.
After the service he told her that
she "would be welcome to a seat
there at any and all times."
The two Christian women were
evidently surprised at the stranger's
tnend'y recepticn, ana afterward ex
pressed this chagrin, particularly
as their not recognizing the thought
to-be intruder was a reflection upon
themselves. Should this meet the
eye of either of those ladies it is to be
hoped at another time they may
consent to be more courteous and
more worthv to be numbered among
Philip Brook's flock.
The Oldest Man in snomerset
As well ad the handsomest, and
others are invited to call on C. X.
Boyd, and get free a trial bottle of
Kemp's Balsam for the throat ami
lungs, a remedy that is selling en
tirely upon its merits, and is guar
anteed to cure and relieveall Chron
ic and Acute Coughs,Asthma, Bron
chtis, and Consumption. Pries 50
cents and 1.00.
Feeding Turkeys.
. This season of the year, juut pre
vious to the time for making tur
keys, is the most critical stage in
fetding, with the exception of a
few weeks after they are hatched. It
is customary with sorne farmers to
pen them up and throw the feed to
them carelessly, allowing them to
tramp it under their feet in all the
filth of the pen, before half is eaten
The proper way is to place them in
a pen with slats spaced sufficiently
to allow them to put their head
through. On the outide should be
place a trough for corn, in a con
venient place one for water, and if
they are fed whole corn, one for
gravel. By exercising a little fore
thought and care the turkeys will
improve wonderfully within a lew
days and will repay for the labor
expended,
A Sensble Man
Would use Kemp's Balsam for
the throat and lungs. It is curing
more cases of coughs, colds, asthma,
bronchitis, croun. and nil throat and
lung troubles, than any other medi
cine. The proprietor has authorized
C. N. Boyd to refund your money if,
after taking three-fourths of a bottle,
relief i3 not obtained. Trice 50 cL-t.
and $1. Trial size free.
