FELT VS.. BLACKSTONE In certain town
in the good old County of Lincoln, State of
Maine, on Fast Day last, worthy divine de-
livered a practical and impressive discourse
from the text, Buy The truth, and sell it not
During the sermon he took occasion to speak
of the various temptations to which poor hui
man nature is every day exposed, in this age
oftrade and traffic, and in touching upon the
different professions and avocations, he alluded
TO the inducements which the la,cyer has TO
sell the TRUTH by suppressing testimony which
makes against his client.
After service was concluded, as the crowd
were vending their way homeward, various
remarks and comments were passed upon the
discourse. Yes, yes says B, little halter,
with voice on c. sharp, who for years had
pulled the wool over the eyes Of most of the
old men in town, in shape of 'broad-brims and
sugar leaves; yes fine sermon inst the
thing capital hit that at the the lawyers!
True says E, lawyer of the old school,
who happened to be just behind and heard the
remark many a fell hat has been sold for
6earer.' The accelerated velocity with which
the poor halter hurried to his Fast Day dinner,
showed something else had hit him beside the
sermon.-Ken Jour.

A KEEN REToRr.-Coarse abuse is pitifui on
account Of the want of talent it betrays, while
keen and delicate retort has an edge to it
that Hays an assailant alive without seeming
to notice him much. We recollect the follow
ing instance of such a retort in Congress. In
the course of the debate on Mr.. Fairfeld's res
olutions, for committee to investigate the
cause of Cilley's death, Mr.. Garland, of Louis
lana, charged Fairfield with intending to give
party political turn to the transaction. Mr..
Fairfield said in reply. If the gentlemen from
Louisiana can find no other motive for my con-
duct in moving an inquiry into the death of
my friend and colleague, than political or
sinister one, cannot dignity the feelins l
entertain towards him by calling it resentment.

IMPORTANT DrcfsIoN.-The Supreme Court


IMPORTANT DEcisToN.-The Supreme Court
at Washington, has made an important deci-
sion in case growing out of,he Warehousing
system. 1t was claimed that the owner Of
certain imported goods had the right to store
them 4 Wareham; Mass. It was ruled by the
Court Chief Justice fancy giving the opin-,
ion, THAT they had no such right, for the rea-.
sonthat Wareham was q port Of Delivery, and
not port Of Entry. The Court held that
goods could. be ~warehouseds only a. a port. of
Entry, except when the Secretary of Treasury
exeed@d a power granted him under an old
act Of congress. In the pending case no such
power was exercised. The principle sustained
is, that goods can be warehoused only alta port
of Entry.

French Spoliations.

The Washington correspondent Of the
Portland Argus, under date April II, writes:
Mr.. Brsdbury's speech ON the bill provid-
ing for the payment of The claims Of AmeIi-
can merchants for spoliations upon our CON-
merce prior to 1900, like bis Report as
Chairnian Of the Select Committee on that
."hise,. was a clear. compact aud forcible
the objections embraced in the speech of
Gov. Felch, of two days. These claims, the
payment of which is clearly provided for by
treaty stipulations, have been before Con-
gress more than twenty years, during which
period many able Rerorls have Teen made
IN their favor, by The most distinguished
statesmen in both branches; and yetby some
strange fatality the bills for their payment
Except in single insIance,) have failed 10
be acted upon, or have been defeated. My
private opinion is, that the Reports hereto
fore made-athough they were documents
OF great abilily-have been so voluminous rs
moi TO have been generally read or exa mined
ny the members. And, when the bills thus
reported, have been called up for action,
they have been involuntarily strangled by
their friends, in an honest endeavor TO sus.
tain them by elaborate discussion. OH 'sa.l
Mr.. Bradbury carefully avoided these err
rors in both his Report and his speech. The
former did not occupy more than three or
four pages, and yet it embraced all The i'm.
Portant facts upon which the claims are
based, in the most lucid and concise form,
with The deductions irresslibly resulting
from Them. Indeed, it is the unanimous
opinion of the friends of the measure here,
that it was just such document as was hest
calculated to accomplish the object intended.
The speech was equally well conceived, and
confined TO the points at issue. 1t showed
how much can he proved in few words.
And, although The subject has been discussed
many times before in both branches, by the
most learned and eloquent statesmen, whose
speeches form a part of the history Of the
country. yet Mr.. Bradbury presented new
views, Of the case, and sustained il by afgu-
menls not before urged, 10 which no Senalor
attempted reply. cd t.....t...4. ...-
= 1t is TO lie hoped that this matter, which
has occupied so much Of the time Of Con-
gress, will now be finally disposed of and
that the claimants who have heen SO long
delayed, will at last receive their honest dues
from the Governments.
Il Should that be tile case, they will be un>
der large obligations TO Mr. Bradbury for
success. amer aHs1. sd rqya brs fl' iisr

On Saturday, the 10th inst, as Mr.. SAM
uel Hanna, of Whithhy, was passing through
his sap bush, accompanied by his wife, a tree
that had been lodged for several years was
agilated by the wind and begun TO descend.
From the proximity Of the tree, and the po-
sition in which it was falling, as well as the
rapidly of its descent, there was but one al
tentative, either 10 save his wife or himself.
With the instructive generosity ofa husband,
he soon decided, and had just time TO seize
his wife, and while in the act of showing her
to one side, the tree struck him in the shout.
