MOST STARTLING CONSIDERATIONS /!
ReAec for the Thoughtful.

Strange that countless human beings exist and
drag through life as do the beasts of the field, or
the insects of the EARTH evincing no more thought
Or reflection than though the noble faculties OF mihd
were not vouchsafed To them
MANY such are husbands and fathers, upon whom
are dependent the health, the we'll being and the
hap,,iness of a suning and ahectionate wife, with
perhaps a family OF children

The Courier des Et1ts Unis thus hits of the
course OF examination allowed in the W aker divorce
trial. lately pending in New York. and whose inter-
miBabe length was an intolerabe bore:
At one tune one OF the counsel rises in the HlIds;
uf ar important examination, and fixing or the WIT
ness triumphant ana insulting ioOk, qtestlons
him after the following manner:
'fWhen five years since you saw, as you say, NJ.
K pass his arms around the waist OF Mrs
W, the plaintiff. did YOU wear new boots or
did you have on boots which had been men1ed p
Be careful what you say Consider before you an
swer."
But the counsel for the opposite party rises in
turn-his eyes flashing with Indignation. He for
bids the witness to the question, for his boots
had nothing to do with the subject of the suit. A
learned aud lengthy discussion ensues. One sup
ports Ills argHment with Blackstone the other re-
lies on Kent and recent American decisions. Both
sides get heated the whole audience Is excited no
doubt the life, at any rate the honor of the accus=
ed depends upon the boots worn by the witness. In
the meantime the court adjourns, and for an hour
or two you may groups lingering about the cor
ridors of the City Hall, discussing earnestly the
question of the boots. The Court at last re-
opens, and each one takes his place. In the mean
time the witness, fixed in his seat mute and i'm
movable has become the target for all the eyes,
which eagerly and wOnderingly directed to-
wards him. It has come to the Judges turn
10 SPEAK
''lf tire question merely regarded such or such
boots, undoubtedly it would be tyrannical stretch
of authority to force the witness to answer but
inasmuck as II was question concerning boots worn
under such and such circumstances, in view of such
and such precedents, and on consulting such and
such authorities, and whereas article 3rd of snch
statute places the witness unreseryedly in the hands
of counsel the Court is Of opinion and decides that
the witness must answer the question proposed to
him."
Each one of tire spectators holds his breath and
raises UP on the points of his toes to hear the an
swer. dead silence reigns through the room,
The plaintiff becomes pale the jury look more and
more serious zone the lawyers bites his bps with
anger, while his adversary smiles slightly. The
Judge is as dignifed and impossible as the law
The crier calls 'Silence!" At last, in a distinct
voice, the witness answers
II did not wear boots at all on the occasion-I
wore shoes!
All breathe freely again, and they pass to another
deposition.
