wake me child, as tuk sick wid the masles, and is buried in
St. Giles'6. Sis he to me, Ain't ye ashamed o' yourself,
M.sthress Cronin ; you can't be a good " Roman" not to let
the poor baby be waited like a Christian ; but says he, bad
luck to me ould shoe if I don't owe you one for chating ma
out of a drunk. Plase yer Honour he couldn't find nothink to
lay ahoult of till last Sunday, whin both Mike and his wife
beg,tu to call me all the unsinsible names I'd be ashamed to
minden, and then bate me head and shoulders as black as yer
Wurtship's hoots. I'll take off me gown and stays,and show
ycr Wurtship me marks.

The complainant was rapidly proceeding to suit the action
to the word, and was only prevented by the exercise of er,nsi-
derable activity on the part of the officers, from givi:ng the
Bench oceular demonstration of her bruises.
Mr. CounTov--Notv, Michael .Lynch, what have you to
s,y? Mike—She &slit begun wid a kettle of boding water,
which she poured over me wife's bead, and scaldtd her hair off
like a pig, She thin tuk tho tongs to me back, and there they
.e (placing the tongs on the table), they'll spake for them-
elves, for they couldn't have come honestly into the fight, if
she hadn't brought them.
Mr. Cocwrov—Call in the svitncsses.
A great hubbub here occurr,d as to who sbouli Epe k first.
for both parties being from the Emerald Isle, each can e pro-
vided with a host of partisans prepared stoutly to shear to

called lona ard and sworn.
Mr. COURTOY—NOW, Bridget Johnson, where were you on

much liko to evade the question.
MitotsrdATE—Why don't you answer, woman? 4Vou have
come here to speak t:!e truth, recollect ? Miss Biddy—Thin,
if I must spake, I was taking a cup of tay, in me own room.
but without the lave harm in-life, wid Teddy Morris, who's
jlst come over fur the hay-making_
Mr. Corterov—lliii 'von see- any hot water poured upon

Axes was me kiddie empty, beltase, says she, if it is, I'll
ltruhble you for the lend, or it. Says 1, there wasn't more at

'aid mine. So say's I just till the pot avid the last drop, as
the strong of the toy's ut the bottom. She took away the
kithitc, sad be the same token 11,ore wasn't any wackier in it.
