Sarcastic Sentence.

Old Elias Keys, formerly first Judge OF
Windsor County, Yt., was strange COMPOSE
ton of folly and good sense, of natural ysbrewd-
ness and want of cultivation The following
sentence, ii is said, was pronounced upon a
poor ragged fellow convicted of stealing pair
of boots from Gen.. Curtis, man of consider
able wealth, in the town of Windsor; La
Swell, 2; said theaJudge,s very gravely, be-
fore pronouncing the sentence of the court,
undertaking to read the fellow lectures
ssyou're fine fellow to be arraigned before
the court for stealing. 7 hey say you are poor

dare YOU, being poor,s have the impudence 70
steal pair of boots Nobody but rich pso-
pie have a right to take such things without
paying, Then they. saye5yop are Worthless
that is evident from the fact that no one has
ever asked Justice TO be done to you; all by
unanimous consent, pronounced you guilty
before you were tried. Now. you might know
YOU would be condemned And now You must
know that it was great aggrayation that you
stole them in that large town of Windsor In
that large town to commit,such an act is most
horrible. And not only go into Windsor to
steal, but you must steal from that great man,
Gen. Curtis. This caps the climax of your in
| iquity. Base wretch. why did you not go and
stealthe only pair of boots which some poor
man had or could get? and then you Noald
have been let alone; melody would have trouo-

1.-THE Detroit Democrat relates the fol-
lowing amusing incident which it says, occur
red in that city recently:
A clergyman came into Detroit yesterday
from the north, aud on coming out from tea,
found his umbrella gone, and another similar
one in its place, which he took, and walked up
Woodward Avenue. He stood talking In the
street, with his umbrella spread, with one OF
his neighbors whom he chanced to meet, who
looking at the umbrella, remarked, ssWell,
Parson, always took you for a candid man,
who would be free to confess fault if one
were committed, but Il think you are carrying
that virtue to extremes and he pointed to
the line displayed in large white letters on
the black umbrella. $40 81 rsT-
ssI stole this umbrella afrom---."ses &
The parson took a look at the clouds, and
concluded the rain was about over, shut up ms

humility,
