An itinerant player, possessed of more wit than
money, was, few days ago, driven by the hard
master hunger to commit the high crime of poach-
ing, near Birmingham; and being unluckily detect
ed in the act, was carried forthwith before bench
of magistrate, where the offence was fully proved.
The knight of the buskin, however, being called
upon for his defence, astonished the justices by
adapting Brutus' speech to the Romans on the
death of Cesar to his cause, thus: ~ -, sLRtt
"BritonS, hungrymen and epicures! hear me for
my cause and be silent that you may hear, believe
me for my honor that you may believe, censure me

judge. If there be, in this Assembly, any friend of
this hare, to him Isay that a players love for

as he was eatable, / slew him. ~ Ia
Here, the gravity of the court was Obliged give
way; prosecutors spectators and all burst into
laughter at the ready wit displayed by the "poor
actor" The information was Withdrawn and the
player was suffered to go tunwhpt ofjustice.'

EPISCOPAL CONVENTION IN CnILLIcoTHE-Onth the
opening of the Convention on Wednesday, VIM.
X, Bond, Esq. lay delegate from St PauPs Parish,
Cincinnati, offered q resolution proposing com
mittee to investigate and report on the financial
history of the Theological Seminary and Kenyon
College, Notwithstanding said committee to
prepare and report, for the consideration of the
next Convention, some plan system for the safe
investment of all moneys arising from any source,
| for the support of those institutions.
| Rev. Mr.. Burning, of Massillon, proposed an
| amendment, that the Trustees also appoint COM
mittee to act in conjunction with the above.
| This proposition was opposed by the orig,nai
mover, and an animated discussion ensued, which
| continued until the Convention adjourned for Dr.
vine Service, at which the Rev. r. s. Nash preach
ed the sermon (; and the Rev. t. b. Dooley and
Rev. John Boyd ofliciated in the services.
| QUEEN VIcroRrHs VIsrr TO BELGIuM.-The Lon
don Spectator observes, and there is force IN the
remark, that although nothing political may have

UNI, it is not withoutimportance IN that respect
1t must remind the French President that person.
al ties unite the British and Belgian soverelgns as

geneous with the existing balance of power on the
European Continent than the old almanacs OF
1875"
FouR LAWYERS practised in the same court in
North Carolina-their names were Hilmon, Swain,
Dews and Dodge. While the last named was
making speech in cause, the three first wrote
on strip of paper eptaph, and cast it directly
before Mr.. Dodge, where he must necessarily see
it, as follows:
Here lies Dodge, who dodg'd all good,
And dodg'd deal of evil;
Who, after lodging all he could,
He could not dodge the devil,
He raised the paper-Iead it, and instantly COM
posed the following:
Here lies Hilmon and Swain,
Whose lot let no man choose; ~.
They liv'd in sin and died in pain,
And the devil got his Dews (dues).

Mr. EditOr:- I wish to keep the public
advised of what is going on in King AL
cohols dominious in our beautiful village
Another victim to drunkenness was bu-
ried few days since. He was young
man only twenty years of age, who for
twenty years has had the example of an
Incorporate father and Incorporate broth
ers to cheer him on in the downward road
TO ruin, and has had the privilege OF look
ing on one brothers. corpse, who died
when drunk.
The young man to whom allude, had
been on a spree ever since our late
Thanksgiving day but at length nature
could endure no more--he fell in a fit,
and Immediately expired.
On the Sabbath following, a minister
was called to attend the funeral at his
fathers house. A bible was placed on
the stand, as though his friends desired he
might read on the occasion. The minis.
ter took his seat by the stand, and opened
TO Amos 4, -, and read in solemn tone,
" Prepare TO meet thy God" He then
closed the Bible and addressed the peo-
pie as follows:
"Friends, we have assembled to carry
to the resting place Of the dead, another
victim of strong drink. This is the fourth
instance which has occurred in this neigh
borhood within few weeks. Where are
the rumsellers who are at the bottom of
all this mischief? Why are they not
here? Why have they not been invited
as bearers OF their victims? Are they so
busy in their work of death, that they
cannot spend time to bury their dead? 1t
is pity they could not be made to wit
ness the effects OF their wicked course {;
see the grief they have introduced into
this family, behold the anguish of their
hearts, and see the lifeless remains of the
young man they have ruined. 1t may
be, If they were here, they might feel
some reentings, the sight of their eyes
might affect theirhearts. Itmight induce
them to pause in their work Of DEATH
o, if they were here, would solemnly
repeat the words of my text; it should
once more fall upon their guilty ears. 1t
is only when we find them around the
bed Of death, that we can bring any truth
to bear upon them, for they in general
s;udiously avoid the regular ministry o.
the word. o, that | had an opportunity
to entreat them to heed the warning

American Lutheran, the Congregational and
Presbyterian Churches They are accustomed
to act together on such subj iects as seem to them
10 demand united action. At recent and re-
gular meeting, he'd in the Lecture Room Of
the Second Presbyterian Church, the subject Of
addressing Kossuth was discussed, and it was
resolved that the Association, as a body, would
give him a cordial welcome. A committee Of
five was appointed to prepare an address and
make the necessary arrangements. In their
action the Association designed to represent on
ly themselves. They supposed that in this free
land, any body Of men who might choose,
could resolve to welcome Kossuth without being
charged with illiberality in not including others
who did not associate with them as members
Of their body.
They did not design to represent the clergy
Of Cincinnati and vicinity. Indeed it was un-
derstood, (how correctly we know not) that
number Of Ihe Protestant clergymen Of the
city, not associated with us in our monthly
meeting, had resolved to do the same thing.
Whether It is best for all the clergy Of the city
to unite in suitable demonstration Of respect
to an illustriOus guest, is an open question. But
whether portion Of them in their associated
capacity, have the right TO make such demon
obIdliou WllhOuJ uepIlFlnB OlueIb OA tAO edlho
privilege, is not an open question. In availing
ourselves Of this right, we were not aware that
we weexposed ourselves justly to the charge Ofillib-
erality.

The notice to which Mr.. Fisher refers, as

port Of the proceedings at Smith g. NiIon's
Hall, except such small parts that readily ex.
press different origin; this is not denied in
the above. Or. Fisher mistakes, if he supposes
that any exception was taken to the action Of
the Association, for which he claims certain
rights, and all that sort Of thing, which were
not controverted for a moment-on the contra.
ry, the point and direction Of the action Of the
Association was approved, so far as they went.
The objection was, the Association did not go
far enough; it might be evangelical, but it GER
tainIy was not catholic in its spirit, movement
and comprehensiveness. If Mr.. Fisher and
colleagues have any cause of dispute, it is with
the clergy-certainly not with the "Press, }"

could get at them in dense fOg.--ThneS
