Thc following is published as a spe¬ cimen of western eloquence and juris¬ prudence. Here in the cast the gentle¬ men of the green bng offer Judges pret¬ ty much the f-anio incense but never openly present the whiskey.
" Judge," fnid the counsel for the de¬ fendant, " your time, 1 know, is precious as must be the case with so able .ind val¬ ued member of society. This case is perfectly clear, and 1 know your learn¬ ing and lucid infelligence bus pierced through it at the first glance. For mo to argue, would not only be a waste of time, but an insult to your penetration. Mucii might be said, hut nothing is needed. Before any other Judge I might lay down the laws, but' here, I know they have been deeply studied and wisely understood, I look around me and behold a humble house of logs; yet see before me tho spirit of truth, the unpurchased distributer of the law, and the old tenement rises before my mental vition proud nnd beautiful as a majestic tempi* lo justice. Judge, I hare a bottle of old prims Alonongnhe- la in my pocket; for tho respect 1 bear your character, alluw me to make you a present of it.'

" A similar event," replied tbe latter, " took place in Balam's time, bul such things are of rare occurrence at the present day."
