York, says:
" The wife Of man of means and the daughter
Of wealthy citizen Of this cty-people, too fond oil
show-recently died. She had been called beauti-
full before family Of children had gathered round
her, and she had not renounced her claim to that
title. She died, and large concourse was invited
to the funeral. The coffin was made of rosewood
inlaid with silver, lined with plated satin. The
whole top was removed, and the deceased lay in
state in her narrow home. She was dressed in a
white merino robe, made like morning gown,
faced with white satin, profusely quilted and orna-
mented. The sleeves were open, similarly lined
and wrought-a stomacher of the richest embroid.
covered the breast whence all life had forever
fled. The head was covered by cap of choice
lace, and wreath offresh flowers arranged around
The hands were crossed upon the breast with the
fingers coveyed roith erpensips jstDelry, which
seemed to SPARKLE if il glad pride that the bright
eye was dim forever. Thus bedizened, poor food
for worms, she went down into the grave, there to
await her God !"

A cause came on to be tried soon after the ne W
code was enacted, before Esq. H, of this
county. Counsellor B. appeared for the plaintiff,
and Dick M. for the defendant Dick, though not
irregular lawyer, is celebrated "petifogger,"
and man Of no mean ability. He happened to be
a member Of the Legislature when the code passed.
In the course Of the trial the Justice got very
much in the fog, through the aid Of the opposing
counsel, as to the true intent and meaning" Of a
certain section Of the code. The attorneys had a
long brush over the question, when Y, fancying
that the Justice was against him, suggested thai
Dick M, the opposing counsel was a member o
the Legislature when the code was passed, and
proposed to call Dick as soitness aud prose uhssi
ths trou6lssoms section ~ssant. l
Dick opposed this vigorously, as unprecedented
and absurd, but the magistrate, after due delibera
ton, decided that he would hear the evideMcs
Whereupon Dick was duly sworn, but Counsellor
Y. made nothing by his motion, as Dick swore that
he did not know positively what the section
meant--inasmuch as he happened to be out rolling
ten pin" when that particular section was en-
acted. [Knickerbocker. 7eE }a.

An Ameient IMrkey-It is stated in some pa
per that in the late tornado large turkey was
raised from the ground, and so violently thrown
against wall as to dash it to pieces! 1t means,
undoubtedly, that the turkey was dashed to pieces
and not the wall. Had the turkey that we encoun-
tered at printers supper few years ago, been in
the place Of the unfortunate gobbler that suffered,
he would, we think, have stood the force of all the
gale, and not lost a feather. We saw two hungry
printers devote all their energies the dismember-
ment of this antique bird but without avail, and
we have pressing fear whenever we attend a
public collation. that same turkey will be there.
We are positive that time could never cause its
decay.
