j Mr. EitsKINE, of k.iarnross, a pleader at the
Scotch Bar, was of a very diminutive size. lie had usqally
stool brought to him to stand upon when addressing the Court,
which gave occasion for a rival Barrister once to observe, that
" that was one way of ris:ng at the Bar."
A French writer relating that the great Duke
of MAnr.nonotiGn broke an officer, translated it by reu:,
" broken on the wheel."

GENTEEL APPELLATION.—Dr. D.tvr sny'S the
name of the officer, who commanded the drummers and trum-
peters of the King of CANDY, was " Tumboroo-Aurarr.pct-
too-t•rito-mahatn-diranz-nihami."
The names of several of our trades are now be-
come obscure as to the reason of their appellation, by means of
the synecdoche, or the putting the whole for a part, for whet
were formerly general names of trades, are at this day appro-
priated to particular branches. Thus a stationer is now ono
that sells paper, pens, &c. but formerly meant any one that
kept a station or shop. A mercer is now one that sells silks
and stuffs but formerly was any merchant. A grocer is one
that sells tea, sugar, &c. but formerly implied any large dealer.
