A LAWYER AT FAULT--Every body in Phil
adelpha, and out of Philadelphia, we believe,
knows, or has heard of Gotleib Scheerer, a tall
robust, well formed German. with small twink.
ling eye, and look that tells you, quite as dis.
tinct as language, that he "knows a thing OF
two" Being called upon :he stand as a witness
one occasion, he was caiechised rather severely,
(as the story goes,) by Mr. Dallas. who expect
ed to make out strong point, by eliciting
something from the following questions:
''Were you at Harrisburg, Mr. Scheerer,
in December :"
"At Harrisburg in December, did you say Mr.
Dallas ~
"Yes, sir. l said Harrisburg in December
Putting his head down thoug ghtfully for a mo-
ment. he replied:
No, sir. | was not"
Were you at Harrisburg in January, Mr..
Scheerer 2"
AT Harrisburg in January. did you say MIR.
Dallas 2s'
"Yes, sir, at Harrisburg in January"
Relapsing into thoughtful mood for a mo-
ment, he replied:
" No. sir, was not in Harrisburg in January. u
We'll, Mr.. Sheerer, were you at Harrisburg
in February ~
Did you say Harrisburg in February, Mr.
Dallas Z"
Yes. sir-answer me, if you please-I said
at Harrisburg in February"
Studying for moment OF two, as before -
" No, sir, was not at Harrisburg in Februa-
ry."
Getting somewhat out of patience with him
Mr.. Dallas. eevatng his tone, demanded:
AT what time then, sir, were you at Harris
burgl'
AT Harrisburgf At Harrisburg, Mr.. Dallas +?
'eas nerer at Harrisburg IN my l.ti, SIR"
Of course the court adjourned lnstanter.

LAND TITLE DEcIsIoE.-Judge Barbour, oi
the District Court Nevada county, at the last ses-
sion of that court decided somewhat import.
ant case relative to the rights of settlers under
the State possessory law, on lands containing the
precious metals.
1t appears that the plaintiff, Moore, had taken
up tract of I6Q acres of land, in Nevada coun-
ty, and that sometime thereafter the defendants,
Kaneen and Kerr, found that portion of it con-
taiued gold. They dug it up, and worked it as
miners generally do, and built them house
thereon, which they used only as bowling al
ley and ball room. This action was brought by
the plaintiff to recover possession Of their occu-
pancy on his claim.
1t does not appear that the defendants were
then mining, or, if they were, that the occupan-
cy of the house on his premises, or any portion
of the land claimed, was necessary to enable
them to prosecute their vocation as miners. The
Judge held that, although claimant under the
State Possessory Act may have complied with
all the conditions thereof, yet, if mineral lands
are enclosed in his claim. other parties have the
right, under that law, TO work the mines with
out let or hindrance; that the locator for grazing
or agricultural purposes, must give way to the
rights of the miner; but that the property for
the recovery of which the suit was brought, was
not essential to those rights, the plaintiff should
recover.-iState Journal.

PERPETUAL MoTIoN.-The London Leader
says:-We have just been given to understand.
that an artisan in very humble circumstances,
residing in Ipswich, has, after three years labor,
succeeded in constructing model of machine,
acting, after being put in motion by screw. 1t
has turned grind-stone against the power of
one person who held an iron bar on the stone.
1t has kept in motion upwards of 36 hours,-
the end of which time the speed was not dimn-
ished and the constructor, whose name is Tho
mas Stamford, contends that the machine will
keep in motion as long the materials will last.
The invention was offered to several firms in
Ipswich who declined taking it up. since which
three persons belonging to one of the first firms
of eng gineers i'll London. have visited Ipswich,
and examined the machine, and have been in
duced to pay the inventor liberally, and have
taken the machine and the inventor to London,
TO prosecute inquiry.

n 1t is stated by the Baltimore SIN. that
the mercantile navy of the United States, is a,
present greater than that of the United kingdom
of Great Britain, and the tonnage of The single
city of N. York is within a triAe of being equal
to that Of London aud Liverpool put together.
According to the statistics, our mercantile ma
rine was, at the close of last year, upwards OF
4OO0,00q tons, whilst that OF Great Britain was
only 3.30090O. Seven years ago the tonnage Of
New York was considerably less than that OF
London. AT the epd OF 1853, it exceeded 900.
600 tons, whilst that of Lf'ndon was 6sa 900
tons, and that of Liverpool 634 4,0Q0 tons. These
are marvellous facts
