The Tribunal Of Correctional Police has )uat tried
a singular Case A fshwoman at the market was
summoned by a lady named Grebuebet. 10 answcr
for damages done to her nose by onc'ol The ishwo
mana Holsters Mad. Grebuchet, il seems, wish
ing To treat her husband to something unusual on
Ascension day. was bargaining for the lobster in
question, but examining it closely, threw 1t
down, declaring that il was not fresh. The dealer
insisted that il was alive, which Mad. Gehuchet
denied. and went far as to gay that it smelled
bad To satisfy herself definitively that such wa1
the case, she applied the lobster second time to
her nose, when the crustacean, as if to prove its
owners veracity, seized Mrs. Gebruchet's nose
with ito claws, and gave it an awful nipping Mrs.
Grebuchet screamed. and the fshwoman and her
friends INDUCED in uproarous hilarity. They
finally thought proper to detach the lobster as tho
victim fully convinced of its freshness
For the injuries sustained Mrs Grebuchet claimed
thirty france; but the fshwoman mAint tanned that
she not at all TO blame and that the mischief
was the lady's own doing, who would put her nose
between the Holsters claws when che was told il
was alive. The Tribunal took the same view of tho
case. and dismissed the complaint, ordering the
plaintiff to pay the costs.
Speaking of loGsters, did you ever hear the an
ccdote of Cuvier, commenting on the definition
given of that word in the dictionary of the Acade-
my? Culver looking over the work and cx
aiming il in reference to his peculiar spec-
atty. Coming across the word homard, (lobster,)
he read, "a red fish, that walks backwards" lie
wrote against il in the margin, at is not fish, it
is not red, and it does not walk backwards; othcr
wse the definition is correct" FRANCO.
