late disgraceful Boston Corner prize fight,
on the 9Th inst, he was brought into court

With the statute, he was sentenced to pay a

ney, who returned on Sunday last, when

DEATH or Mr.. JUSTICE HAILE.-Levi
Halle, one OF the Associate Justices of the
Supreme Court Of Rhode Island, died at
his residence in Warren, on Friday after
o last, after an illness Of only eleven
hours. He was seized with cholera at FIVE
o'clock in the morning, and at four in the
afternoon, his earthly existence was termi-
mated.
Judge Halle was born in Warren, in the
year 1897, and has resided there the whole
Of his life. He was educated at Brown
University, and graduated in the class Of
1921. AT the time of his death, he was
one Of the Trustees of that Institution,
having been elected to that Office in the
year 1880. After leaving college, he
studied the profession of law, and entered
upon its practice in his native town. In
MAY, 1924, he was elected n member Of
the General Assembly, and held that place
by %skmi-annual election until June, 1885,
when he was appointed one Of the Justices
of the Supreme Court. The arduous and
laborious duties Of that high Office, he most
faithfully and conscientiously discharged
down to the very day of his death. He
was a man of amiable temper and much
beloved in all the relations of life. As a
member Of the Court, he was patient, atten-
tive to business, and kind and corteous in
his intercourse with the bar. No member
Of the Court was more familiar with the
judicial history OF the State, and with ques-
tons of local law and practice, than Judge
Halle.
The funeral Of Judge Halle took place
from the Baptist Church in Warren, yester-
day afternoon. A discourse was delivered
by the pastor, and a eulogy, highly appro-
pirate, impressive, and eloquent, was pro-
nounced by Rev. DR.. Babcock, a class
mate and intimate friend Of Judge Halle
We hope to be able to obtain for publication
a copy of this exceedingly elegant and dis.
eliminating tribute of warm-hearted affec-
ton. Ia. very large number of people were
present TO testify their respect for the char
acter of one who has been for many years
justly regarded as the first citizens of the
town. The late Chief Justice Greene,
Judge Staples, Judge Bryton, the MayoEof
Providence. many members of the bar, and
other personal friends of the deceased, from
this city, were among those gathered on
this melancholy occasion.-Pror Journal

Death by Cholera Of Er-Justice Merritt.
Henry w. Merritt, Esq, Ex-Police JUS
tice, died suddenly yesterday morning, at
his residence in Houston street, after a
brief illness. He was attacked on Wednes-
day or Thursday with cholera morbus Of
a mild type, and taking no immediate steps
to check the disease, it merged into the re-
al cholera, which defied the combined skill
of the most eminent physicians in New
York, and terminated fatally. Mr.. Merritt
was a man of extensive acquaintance, and
universally respected. At the time of bis
death he was at the head Of the Bank Pc.
lice, organized a few months since for the
detection and arrest Of persons pcrpetnting
forgeries on the monied institutions of Wall
street.-N. Y. Express.

~ Some years ago a Philadelphia mer-
chant sent a cargo Of goods to CONSTANT
nople. After the supercargo saw the
bales and boxes safely landed, he inquired
where they could be stored "Leave them
here, IL wont rain to-night," vas the reply.
But | dare not leave them thus expos
ed ; some Of the goods may be stolen"
said the supercargo.
The Mehomedan merchant burst into a
loud laugh, as he r~eplied-"Don't be alarm
cd, there amt a Christian within fifty miles
Of here"
