LaWYers, Hereafter.

"Tell," correspondent of the Boston
Post, wrote the following, which contains
wicked word, and should not, therefore, be
read by anybody.
County Court was sitting while ago, in
-, on the banks of the Connecticut. 1t
was not far from this time of year--cold
weather any low--and a knot of LAWYERS
had collected around the old franklin, in the
bar-room. The fire blazed, and mugs of flip
were passing away without groan, when in
came rough, gaunt-looking 'babe of the
woods" knapsack Oh shoulder and staff in
hanl. He looked cold, and half perambula-
ted the circle that hemmed in the fire, as with
wall of brass, looking for chance to warm
his shins. Nobody moved, however; and,
unable to sit down for lack Of a clair, he did
the next best thing-leansd against the wall,
"with tears in his fists and eyes doubled up"
and listened to the discussion on the proper
way of serving referee on warrantee deed,
as if he was the judge to decide the matter.
He soon attracted the attention of the COM
pang. and a young splig spoke to;him. "You
look like traveller" "N2ll, spose am;
come from Wisconsin afoot Il any e.
From Wisconsin, That is distance to
go on one pair Of legs. say, did you ever
pass through hell in your travels ?" eYiss,
sir" he replied, a kind of wicked look steal
ing over his phizamanogany, II have been
through tn. outskirts 'Ithought it likely.
Well, what are the manners and customs
there +? some of us would like to know."---
"oh," said the pilgrim deliberately. half
shutting his eyes; and drawing round the
