N0NSUITING A CREDITOR.

There was certain lawyar in the
Cape, a short time ago. the only one in
those "diggins" then, and for aught I
know at present He WAS a man well
to do in the world, and what was sur.
prisiag in the limb of the Law, averse to
encouraging litigation.
One day a client came to him IN
most terrible rage.
Look here Squire" said he, "that
are bl4sted shoemakar to Pigeon Cove
has gone and sued me 20 the money for
a pair of boots owed him "
'Did the aoots suit you -
Goa yes-I'se got them on now

"bais price ?"
"Oh yes"
Then you owe him the money hon.

"Of course"
"Weli, why don't you pay him ~
"Why cause the blasted snob wert
and sued ne and I want to keep him out
of the money if kin"
SIT viii cost You something"
81 don't kecr a cuss for that. How
much do YOU want to begin :"
''Oh ten dollars viii DO"
as that al Wei here's an X, So %
ahead; :" and the client went out, very
we'll satisfied with the beginning.
Our laver next called on the shoema-
keT, and asked him what he meant By
commencing legal proceedings against N.

him till l got tired. ! know'd he was
able 10 pay-and l was determined to
make him; that's the long and short CT it.
"Wcll," " said the lawyer, he's been
good customer to YOU, and think you ac-
I'd too hasty. There's trife to pay on
account Of your proceedings, but I think
YOU i better take this five dollars and call
it square"
'Certain. squire, if you say SO, and
darned glad to get it."
So the lawer forked over one Y, and
kept the other
In few days his client came along,
and asked him how he got on with his
suit.
"Rapidlyr' said the lawyer, awe'vo
nonsuited him, and be will never trouble
you"

client I'd rather gin fifty dollars than

4 NV MoTIvE PowER.-The Wor-
ce>ter Spy SAYS, that an ingenious ne
chanic Of that city Las invented ma
chine for supplying motive power, which,
ii Is believed by praeticl men, will su-
persede the steam engine. The iuvcn-
ton Is thus described The machine Is
called 'vapor engine ana tie propen-
ing power is produced by the expansion
OF AIR in the cy finders by the application
Of steam. The invention comprises two
features, one entirely mechanical. The
first consists Of the peculiar arrangement
Of the valves, by which the atmospheric
resistance Of the exhaust Is not felt.
consequently a saving Of fifteen lbs. TO
the square inch IS effected, which in
common practice IS equivalent to a saw
in5 Of thirty-three per cent. The pecu-
har mechanical instruction Of the valves
and their connections are also prominent
features IT, the invention on the score Of
wear and tear "The chemical features
IS that Of rendering atmospheric air more
sensitive to the action Of caloric than is
laid down in the books, VIZ: doubling its
volume under a temperature of PIP de
erees, whereas u temperature Of 400 de-
erees has been considered requisite to
dilate air to twice its normal volume. -
It is claimed by the inventor that the
combination Of these two Inventions gives
a result as six to one in favor Of his IL
vention over the ordinary steam engine,

for these vast tracts of the public domain
that is annually granted to States for inter
nal improvements and otherwise. In thus
parting with tythe of its wealth, it en-
hanceS the value of, and makes available
vast amounts of the unproductive and dor

earth that bountiful crop may reward
him for his labors.
But if we cannot have the ocean steam

above and beyond the discretion Of the
Postmaster General. If we cannot have
an ocean steamer from San Francisco to
the Sound, let us have the mail from one

then in a canoe; at all events let us have
the mail.
We earnestly trust that the members
who compose our Legislature may have an

have such mail facilities as when persons

that they may have what in other coun-
