EMERSON ON WEBsTER-Rhapsodyv VS.. Logic.
The Boston Transcript thus humorously takes off
Mr.. Emerson's stump speeches against Webster:
Unhappy Mr.. Webster! A sayer of sayings
has gone out against thee A man cunning of
speech is darling epigrams and aphorisms at thee
Thou art to be laid low by dainty illustration,
and shot with a crystal bullet of mystical poetry
By a mistake of the press, man was said to
have been found dead with long word (instead of
sword) sticking in his throat. Such is the fate
prepared for Mr. Webster and it becomes him to
set his house in order. Indeed, since the has
spoken, it is a great piece of presumption in him to
be alive at all -

A QUEER SUIT. The Waukesha Democrat
gives the particulars of suit brought by physi-
clan of that place against two persons, who took
possession Of human body under the process of
anatomical preparation. An inquest was held, and
the remains were committed to the grave. The
plaintiff brought an action against the inquest for
damages and in the prosecution of the suit, there
appearing no evidence that the plaintiff was un-
lawfully possessed of the subject that the defend
ants acted under due authority, and the Court de-
Gliding that human skeleton prepared for anatom-
cal purposes possessed value and should be regar-
ded as property the jury, upon the evidence before
them, returned verdict of fifty dollars damages
for the plaintiff. From the evidence offered, it
appears that body is worth $40, and a perfect
skeleton $50.

Mercantile Honor,

The Philadelphia North American men,
 tions that most estimable and excellent
 citizen called to see the editor, and, as he
 happened to be absent at the time, left upon
 his table a note, from which, though in-
 tended for the editors own perusal, it ven-
 lures 10 make the following extract:
 "You may remember that many years ago 1 was unfortunate in business, and was
 obliged to ask the indulgence of my credit ors, from whom l obtained full release Since then l have been favored to such an
 extent in my affairs, that today am pay ling off my old debts, amounting to over I60,000 dollars. 1 need not say that this is
 the happiest day of my life; and that the Iconsciousness of being able to discharge this duty has brought with it peace of mind more valuable than either silver or |gold."
 The North American adds:
 "Here is an instance which we desire to commend to imitation. The gentleman al- luded to was under no legal obligation to make the payments which he did, and his former creditors had long ceased 10 look upon him as their debtor. But he felt and felt truy-that no lapse of time could Iextinguish his moral accountability; and in the spirit of just man, and an honest merchant, he took the first opportunity of reimbursng those to whom he had been in- debted, without regard to merely technical considerations. Such an example is cer- tainly worthy of all praise; and we accord it in this particular case with all the more as we are sure the act was prompted by a high sense of integrity-an earnest and anxious disposition to do right, for the sake of right, uninfuenced by any other motive.''

0P The Census Returns exhibit some curious facts in regard to population. For instance, in Pike county, Ky, there is family, the husbands age being 25 years, the wife's 2l, and in which there are five children, the oldest 10 years, and the youngest one month old. The Assistant Marshal challenges the world to beat it. The Seventh Ward of Boston equals, if it does not beat the above, viz: the husband lis 5, the wife 9, with five chiIdren-the eldest IA, and the youngest four years old. But there is family in Muskingum county, |Ohio, containing If children-the husband is 62 years old, and the wife 42-the ages of the children being, 2l, 20, l9, l6, If, l2, 10, 9, s, and 6 years two boys, twins, 4 years, and two daughters, twins, seven months old, which we think bears off the palm.
