John Smith, a young attorney, Piet admitted
'to tbo bar.
Wu sober and sagacious as=—u young attor-
ney's sre; -
And s fr:Ara of deep abeitaction held the
acizin - of his face
The result of contemplation of the rule in
• Shelley', case.
Ono day in term-time Mr. Smith was setting
in the Court, •
When some good men and true of the body
of the country did on their oath report,
That heretofore, to wit: upon the second day
of May, L. 1).1881, about the hour of
• noon, in the' county and State aforesaid,
one Joseph Scroggs, late of said county,
did then and there feloniously take,
steal and carry away
One bay bored, of the value ; of fifty dollars,
more or less
(The same then and there being of the pro
._ • perty, goods and chattels of one lleze
lash Hess );
Contrary to the statute to such case exprcasty
made
And provided; and against the peace and
dignity of the State wherein the venue
had been laid.
The prisoner, Joseph Scrogga, was then ar
raigned upon this charge,
And, pleaded not guilty, and on this he threw
himself upon the country at large;
And said Joseph being poor, the Court did
graciously appoint
Mr. Smith to defend him—much on the same
principle that obtains in every charity
hospital, where ap - oung medical stu
dent is often set tlrectify a serious in
jary to an organ or a joint.
The witnesses seemed prejudiced against
•
poor Mr. Scroggs;
And the District Attorney made a thrilling
epeech, in which
,he told the jury that
if they didn't find for the State be
- reckoned they'd have to "walk their
logs;"
Then Smith arose and made his speech for
the defense,
Wherein be quoted Shakespeare, Blackstone,
Chitty, Archbold, Joaquin Miller, Story,
Kent, Tupper, Smadee and Marshala,
and many other writers; and everybody
• Said they "never heered aiela a bust of
. eloquence."
And be said: "On this hypothesis my client
must go friZe;"
And: "Again on this hypothesis, its morally
impossible that ho could be guilty.
don't yon see ?"
And: "Then on this hypothesis you really
can't convict;
And so on, with torty-six more hypotheses,
upon noire of which, Mr. Smith ably
demonstrated, contd. scroggs be dere-,
hat.
But the jury; never stirring from the box
wherein they sat,
Returned a verdict of "Guilty;" and his Honor.
straightway sentenced Scroggs to a
three-year term in the penitentiary and
a heavy tine, and the costa on top :of
And the prisoner, in wild delight, got up and
danced and sung;
And when they asked.him the reason of this
strange behavior, he said; "It's because
I got off so easy —for it there'd ha' been
a few more of them darned hypotheses,
I'd have been hung !"
James Bartle and his Knife.
-James Bowie lay for months in his
bea ) in the City of Natche z, before he
recovered from his wound, He , was a
_
man of much mechinical'ingennity, and
while thus confined ~ whittled from a
piece of white pine the model of whunt
jog-knife, which he Sent to two brothers
named Blackman, in the City of Natch
ez, and told them to spare no expense
in Making a duplicate of it in. ' steel.
This %vas the origyi of the dreaded
bowie knife. It was'made from a large
sawmill file, and its temper afterward
improted upon by the Arkansas black
kinith. This is all that can be top
about the origion of that death-dealing
implement. Since James Bowie became
somewhat prominent in his efforts to
advance the spread of republican institu
tions it is pijOper to speak of what he
did. He seemed to have a natural dis
position to rProtect the weak from the
strong. At. one time lie was riding
through the parish of Concordi:i. La,
and saw a man lashing his slave with
his whip. He told the man to desist,
but he was met with curses. He dis
mounted from his horse,. wrestled the
whip from the master, and laid it over
his shoulders. This led to a shooting
match, in which the slave-owner was
badly wounded. BoWle, after submit
ting himself to the law, paid the doctor's
bill, purchased - the slave at donble his
value, and gave him his freedom,,
In after years a Methodist preacher
told the writer this: He said he, was
one of the first Methodist ministers sent
to Texas by the Methodist Conference.
He traveled ou horseback, crossing the
Mississippi below Natchez; that the
first day after crossing the Mississippi
River he was overtaken by a horseman
dressed in buckskin, armed with a rifle,
a pistol and a 'knife. They entered
into conversation and he found him to
be intelligent, 'pleasant and well ac
quainted with the geography of the
country.. Neither one inquired the
name or business of the other:\ Both
were aiming at the same destination,
Texas. Finely . they reached ' a new
town filled with Wild, desperate charac
ters from other' States.. He posted a
notice 'that he would, preach! at the
Court House the first evening of his
:arrival there. At the "hour named he
- found the rude structure thronged to
overflowing—with men onlyt He gave
out a hymn, and all joined in' singing
and sung it wt-11, but when.he announc
ed bis text and attempted to preach,
one brayed in- imitation of an sass, an-
other hooted like an owl, etc. Ire dis
liked,to be driven from his purpose and
attempted to preach, but was stopped
4
by the same species of interruption.
He stood silent and still, not knowing
whether to vacate the pulpit or not.
Finally his travelling companion,
whom ha did not know was in•the house
arose in the midst and with stentorian
voice said: 'lien, this man has come
here to preach .to you. You need
• preaching to,'nnd be if he
shan't preach to you! The next man
that disturbs him shall fight me. My
• name is Jim Bowie." The' preacher
said that after this Ainouncenient he
never had a more attentive and respect;
fitl audience, so much infl nence had
Bdwie over that reckless and dangerous
element.—.StniFrancisca Cht`ol2 kit%

Mark Twain on Bine Jays.
Mr. Mark Twain's two volumes of
European travel, entitled "The Tram.
Abroad." contain his estimate of the
blue jay. With bis well-known pro
clivitylor modesty-the author presents
•this estimate itithe words of a certain
"Jin" Baker, a California miner:—
'There's more to a blue jay than any
other creature. He has got more
moods and more different kinds of fed
ings than any other creature; and mind
.you, whatever a blue jay feels he can
pat into language. And no more com
monplace language; either, but rattling,
,out and out book talk—and bristling
with metaphor, too—just bristling! And
as for command of language—why you
never see a blue jay get stuck for a
wind. No maul ever did. They just
boil out of him! And another thing
I've noticed a good deal—there's no
bird, or cow, or anything that uses as
good grammar as a blue jay. You n4y
tiara cat uses good grammer. Well,t a
eat does—but youlet &cat gel to pull
ing fur with another cat on a shed,
nights, and you'll hear rammer' that
will give you the lockjaw. Ignorant
people think it's the noise which fight
ing cats make that is so aggrieving, but
it ain't so; it's the sickening grammar
they use. Nor I,ve never heard a jay
use bad grammar but very seldom; and
when they do they are as ashamed - as
a.human; they shat right down and
leave.
"You may call a • jay a bird. Well,
so he is, in a measure—because he's got
feathers on him, and don't belong , to no
church, perhaps; but othewise he- is
just as much a hnman as you 113 e. And
I'lliell you for why. A jay's gifts and
instincts and feelings and interests
cover the whole ground. A jay /hasn't
got any more . principle than a Con
gressman. _ A jay will lie. a jay will
steal, a jay will deceive, a jay will be
tray. and four times out of five a jay
will go back on his-solemncst promise.
The sacredness of an obligation is a
thing which you can't cram intcy:io blue
jay's,; head. Now, on the top' of all
this, there's another thing; a jay can
. out.:4vear any gentleman in the mines.
Yoli:think a cat can swear. Well, a cat
can; but you gine a blue jay a subject
tfiat calls for. his reserve powers, and
where is youi cat? Don't talk to me—l
i know too much rabout this thing. • And
' there's yet another thing=in the one
little particular of scolding---a blue jay
can lay over anything, human or divine.
Yes,. sir, a jay is eVerything that a man
is. A jay can cry, a jay can laugh, a
jay can feel shame, a jay can reason
and plan and discuss, a jay likes gossip
and scandal, a jay has got :a sense of
humor,".a jay knows when he is an ass
just as well as you do—maybe bettor.
*
If a jay ain't human, he'd! bettei take
in his sign, that's all." i

A HACK MAN'S TRICK. —A Mall stepped
up to one of the hackmen l it the Union .,.
Depot yesterday and wan, f
ed 'to know
j
where he could procure I a , bottle
whisky... "Jump right in, and I w 1
take yon where you can get - the limit
kind'of whisky very cheap." The un
suspecting individual in response to
the invitation jumped into the hack
and was being driven, down the street
at lightening speed before he had time
to collect his thoughts.' ,The mercenary.
hackman Amy() out ,to Grand avenue
and iihrtli on that thortiughfare until
he reached Washington avenues. when
when
he turned east and directed his course
toward the river, Stagily halting in front
of a saloon near Sixth street. •Hpre he
jumped from his box and opened the
door of his coach, when the stranger
asked him why the "mischief" ho bad
taken him so far.
Well," retorted the hackman. 'lon
wanted me to take you out to get a bot
tle of good whisky and you can't get
that everywhere."
Seeing it was useless to parley with
the .backman the stranger then procur
ed the whisky and asked to be taken
back to the depot, us soon as possible,
as lie desired to take, he train. ,
The hackman said ho had other en
gagements and couldn't afford to do it
unless he received a dollar for his
trouble.
As the stranger imagined it 'was five
or six miles to the depot, ho paid the
dollar and said: 4 -Well, then, go ahead.
I presume I must stand it.'" In about
four minutes, to the , - man'S astonish
ment, the hack halted in front of the
depot. He couldn't underst i and how it
took him such a long time to reach the
whisky shop and only a few brief mo
ments'to return. Bat that didn't alter
the case any, as the hackman had the
dollar while the stranger bad nothing to
shOW for his trouble but a little exper
, rience and a bottle of whisky.---St.

THE GEEATEST FLEE OF THE AGE

OZONE
A New Promo for Preservini all Perislidle Articles,, Anima
This Preservative is not a liquid, pickle, or any of the old and exploded processes, but is simply
and purely OZONE, as produced and applied by an entirely a new process. Ozone is the an
tiseptie principle of every substance, and possesses the power to preserve animal and vegetable
structures from decay. There is nothing on the face of the earth liable to decay or spoil tehi:h OZONE,
the new Preserratire,.will not preserve for all time in a perfectly fresh and palatable condition.
The value of OZONE as a naturaipreserver has been known . to' our abler chemists for years. but
until now no means of producing it in a practical, inexpensive, anti simple manner have been .
discovered.
Microscopic observations prove that decay Leduc , to septic matter. of minute germs that develop
and feed upon animal and vegetable structures. OZONE, applied by the Prentiss method, seizes
and destroys these geimsat once, and thus preserves. At our offices in Cincinnati can be seen'
almost every article that can be thought of preserved by this process and every visitor is well.
come to come in, tastmemell, take away with him, and test in every way the merits of OZONE as
a preservative. We will also preserve, free of charge, any article that is brought or sent prepaid
to us, and.return it to the sender, for him to seep and test.

tion, and the eggs as fresh and perfect as on the day they were treated, and will sell as strictly
,
: "choice." The advantage in preserving eggs is readily seen; there aro seasons when they oau be
bought sor e or 10 cents a dozen, anti by holding them can be sold - for an advance of from one hun
dred to three hundred per cent. One man with this method can preserve 5,000 dozen rt day.
FRUITS may be permitted to ripen In thelr native climate, and can be transported to and.
part of the world. . The juice expressed from fruits can be held for an indefinite"pe
. clod without fermentation—hence the great value of this process for producing a tiimperauce
beverage. Milk and cider can be held perfectly sweetany length of time. .
VEGETABLES can be - kept•for an indefinite period in their natural condition, retaining _

FROM COL. L. T. POSTER.
Youngstown, Ohio, May 10th. li'O.
Dn. B. J. KERDALL k COECI Lad a very raint
ble Hambletonian colt which I prized very high.
ly, he had a large bone spavin on one joint and
a small one On the other which made him very
lame; I bad him under the charge of two veteri
nary surgeons' which failed to care him. I vas
one day reading the advertisement of Eeridadx
Spavin Cure in the Chicago Express. I detemin•
ed at once to try it, and got our druggists here
to send for it, they three bottles; I tot
them all and thought I would give it a thorough
trial, I used it according to directions and the
foueth day the colt ceased to be lame, and the
lumps have disappeared. I used but one bottle
and the' colts limbs are as free from lumps and
as annooth , as any horse in the skU.. lie Is en
tirely cured. The care wis Wreruhriable that
I let two of my neighbors. have the remaining
two bottles, who are now using it.
