THE TAIL ON THE WRONG PIG.
We heard Of an auecdole on Saturday, which
we deem worth publishing, though we do not
vouch for lis accuracy in every particular. As
we know not the parties, and OF course are not
about to call names, they viii doubtless pardon
us for extracting smile from the mere incident,
"absractly considered" as the philosophers
say; particularly as it affords fair exempli6-
cation Of that glorious privilege, which, as
freemen and as christians, we enjoy and exer-
cise--to wit, the right Of placing in durance
vile, those bodies VINO owe US monies.
A slaunch advocate Of this prerogalive, on
the occasion of recent failure, was declaim-
ing vehemently in favor Of its execution upon
the person OF the unlucky delinquent His ar
gument was principally directed 10 an officer OF
the law, upon whom he was stro ely urging the
| immediate enforcement Of those benevolent lc-
gal prov .sions, should said "docr Of the law
Iii the case aforesaid, be required TO serve meSne
processes, for that, and so forth, provided, ne
vertheless, whereas, and Notwithstanding CT
is impossible TO talk law, or write law, withou,
plenty of these terms
The officer, however, was Of opinion, that
he should receive no orders 10 imprison any
individual But during the debate, writ
came into the Office, with directions to levy
| upon the goods and chattels, and for want
thereof, to do the other thing On pcrusing
this instrument, The officer confessed himself
mistaken. 'Here,' said he, lis actually an order
to take the body We'll then, answered the
patron of the law, do your duty; put it on to
him without delay 'Bul would you give no
| time for bail!'-'Not one moment Then, ex-
claimed the officer, thou art the man! SO, Mr.
Wiggey, come along 10 quot
1t is scarcely necessary to add, that this shock
produced new twist in the argumen'-so very
mutable ard wry-cornered are we frail mortals!
