Bostcrr vs. RAGORD —The two parties, plaintiff
and defendant, presented themselves to thermagistrate
—the one running and hopping along, the ober with a
staid gait, and grumbling with all the anger 'think it
was possible to be expressed. The first, howassor,
was rather an old man, and the other might, by heed
squeezing, pass you a young man.
Judge—Bat:wet, whet do you sue for?
Boniest—My due, your worship—nothing erten -
than my due; eighty francs premium money, which
were agreed upon in a trade which took *who
tween NI Lagord and me, And a pretty job be has
4. ,
made of it.
Lagord—Yes, a fine affair. I've got the wont
of it; as the corner of the box said when it tolled
down toll.
Bost vet—Never mind tbat, now. You are a cuts.
ning one, you old fox; you know which aide of your
bread is buttered Come, come, pay me my eighty
f.rine* premium. You shall see, your worship, lowa
ed a little box, a sort of cottage; but 1 was living in
Paris and my property was situated near Meswt ais
Brie, it was 1-nightly inconvenient to go down don
every evening, at my age, with my rheumatic leis..o
The house and stable were too for of, and sal wished
to get rid of them. I don't mean to say my legit, but
my property. I had some conversation with al Li. I '
