I'm A LAwYER.-We lad always considered the
character in the play of Uncle Toms Cabin, who fire.
quently Gays I'm lawyer" fictitious one, until
Saturday, when we were waited upon by the original,
complaining Of his name being reported in the pro-
ceedDgs of a meeting Of the Temperance Alliance.
The point of grief was that we had made il known
that he a temperance man. greatly to the injury
of his business. Because, says he "Im lawyer,
I" and temperance men don't employ me, and as soon
"as it is known that take part in temperance meet
"ings shall not be able TO get any clients. par
"ticularly requested the reporter not to print my
"name. If ] am to be reported every time, shall
take care not to attend any more temperance
meetings"
We respectfully suggest to this individual and others
like him. that the best thing he do is to stick to
his trade and leave temperance entirely alone.
MILITIA FINEs.-One of the Sunday papers says:
There seems to be misunderstanding relative 10
the militia law particularly concerning those per-
Sons who exempt from its provisions. The law OF
1854 expressly declares that the Assessors shall
"determine who are exempt or not liable TO do
"military duty" they required, also, to make
/" certificate list of the of all persons whom
they shall determine to be exempt, and shall file
"he same in the office of the clerk of the city town,
DOR ward where they reside, for the future examine
"ton and guidance of the Assessors" Conse-
quently, if the Assessors do their duty, those who
are exempt and notify the Assessors need not again
be troubled about militia duty. The law also directs
the Commissioners Of Jurors to provide register in
which shall be entered the names of persons exempt
by law from military service in the City OF New
York but as it appears from the law, the proceed
ings in the latter the same as required before
the Assessors and are Of greater benef! to those
who are exempt.
