THE REGICIDE'S CHEESE AND RpoOaT
CT,T(ry

Blackwood has good article in the March
number, relating to the Regicides who tool.
refuge in New England, from whish the fol-
lowing incident, both of historical and local
interest, is taken -
GA story is told of one of the Regicides.
while living at Cambridge. which deserves
preservation, as it not only illustrates the open
manner in which they went 10 and fro, but
also shows how well exercised were the SOL
diers of Cromwell in military accomplishments.
a fencing master had appeared at Boston,
challenging any man in the colonies to PLAY
at swords with him and this bravado he re-
peated for several days, from stage of Thes.
plan simplicity, erected in public part of the
town.
"One Gay, as the mountebank was pro-
claiming his defiance, to the terror and admit
ration of crowd of bystanders, a country bred
fellow, as il seemed, made his appearance in
the assembly, accepting the challenge, and
pressing to the encounter with no other wea-
ponry than cheese, done up in a napkin, for
a shield, and broomstck, we'll charged with
Tuddle- water, which he fourished with quiX-
otto effect as a sword. The shouts of the rah.
bic, and the confusion of the challenger, may
be imagined but the countryman, throwing
himself into position, Justify defled the man
of foils to come on. A sharp command TO be
gone with his nonsense, was all the notice
which the other would vouchsafe; but the rus
tic insisted on having satisfaction, and so stub
bornly did he persist in brandshing his broom
stick, and opposing his cheese, that the glad
iator in towering fury, at last drove at him
desperately enough.
The thrust was very coolly received IN the
soft and savory shield of the countryman,
who instantly repaid it with dexterous daub
with his broom, soaking the beard and whis-
kers of the swordsman with It's odorous con-
tents A second and more furious pass at the
rustic was parted with mastery skill and ac-
the bEoomstick, which ludicrously besmeared
roar of merriment at his crest-fallen appear
ance.
CA third lounge was again spent upon the
cheese, amid shouts of laughter; while the
broomsman mopped nose, eyes and beard, of
his antagonists putting and blowing physiog
nomy. Entirely transported with rage and
chagrin, the champion now dropped his rapier
and came at his ridiculous adversary with the
| broalsword
"' Hold, hold, my good fellow said Broom
stick, so far, alrs fair play but if that's the
game, have a care, for shall certainly take
your lifeH
cat this the COMPOUNDED gladiator stood a
ghast, and staring at the absurd apparition be-
fore him, cried out, amid the jeers of the mob;
"| Who is this There were but two in
England that could match ME 1t must be
COTE, Whalley, or the Devil = And SO it pro-
we'd, for it was Goffe.'

justice Winslou-What do YOU know a.
bout John Wadleigh's sleeping in meeting'
Witness-I know all about it; faint no Sc
cret, guess
J,.stice-Then tell us all about it; that's
lust what we want to know.
Understanding his head)-Well, the
long and the short of it is. John Wadleigh is
afard working man; that is, he works mighty
hard doing nothing; and that's the hardest
work there is done. 1t will make feller
sleep quicker than poppy-leaves So it stands
to reason that Wadeigh would materially be a
very sleepy sort of person. Well, the wealth
er is sometimes materially considerable warm,
and Parson Moody's sarmons is sometimes
rather heavy-like-
"Stop, stop p said Justice Winslow. <' No
reflections upon Parson Moody that is not
what you were called here for.''
u itnessI don't cast no reflections on Par
son MoodywI was only telling what know
about John Wadleigh's sleeping in meeting
and it's my opinion, especially in warm wealth
er, that sarmons that are heavy-like, and two
hours long, materially have tendency
stop, stop say said Squire WinsIow;
ss if YOU repeat any of these reflections on Par
son Moody again, I'll commit you to the cage
for contempt of court"
W1tness--I don't cast no reflections on Par
son Moody. was only telling what know
about John Wa1leigh's sleeping in meeting.
Squire Winslow-Well, go on, and tell us
all about that. You wern't called here to tes-
tifv about Parson Moody.
Witness-Thats what | am trying to do, if
you wouldn't keep putting me out. And it's
my opinion, in warm weather, folks is con-
siderable apt to sleep in meeting; especially
when the sarmon-l mean especially where
they get pretty tired. know | find it pretty
hard work to get by seventhly and eighthly in
the sarmon myself; but if l once get by there,
generally get into kind of waking train
again, and make out to weather it. But 1t
isn't SO with Wadeigh; Eve generally noticed
that if he begins to cape at seventhly and
eighthly, it's gone goose with him before he
gets through tenthly, and he has to look out
for another prop for his head somewhere, for
his neck isn't stiff enough to hold it up. And
from tenthly up to sixteenthly he's as dead as
a door nail. till the amen brings The people up
to PRAYERS, and Wadleigh comes up with a
Jerk, Just like opening jack-knife.

THE GREAT WEsT.-The circumference or
border line of the U. S. is about nine thousand
five hundred miles in length. 1t may be di-
vided thus:-Boundary in common with Brit
ish North America, 1900 miles boundary in
common with Mexico, 1900; coast of the
Pacific 700; coast of the Gulf of Mexico, 1000;
and coast of the Atlantic. 800. The terrific
~ thus enclosed includes also nearly ten
thousand miles of river and lake navigation,
of which two-thirds are in the valley of the
Mississippi Geographers of foreign coun-
tries have admitted that this extensive coun-
try has the most varied soil, climate and pro-
d1ctions of any country on the face of the
earth. The inevitable consequence of this is,
that it's capabilities for population and wealth
are correspondingly great.

Important Decision.-A decision has just
been given by Judge Parson, in case in Phil
adelphia, of which the facts are briefly these:
"Holdon & McMackin were equal partners
in the ownership and publication of the Sat-
urday Courier Holden died. His widow
claimed one half of the establishment, by right
of her husbands ownership This McMack
in resisted, on the ground that the good will
of an establishment could not pass to the heirs
of deceased partner. He offered to buy the
widows interest at $4,000; or to sell his half
for s22 .O00-thus estimating the good will of
the establishment at $4,000, which he was
not willing the widow should have the bene-
fit Of The offer was declined. and suit was
brought; and his honor decided that the wild
ow could recover remuneration for the good
will of the Saturday Courier. By the decl-
sion, if the matter cannot be settled in any
other way, the Office will have TO be disposed of
at public sale. and theproceeds divided equal
ly between the plainfif.and defendant"
