A GREAT SPEEcH.-Hooper, Of the Mont
gomery Mail, gives the following report of the
greatest speech he ever heard:
A fellow was indicted up in old Min, when
Tom CT was a solicitor for gambling,
to wit, playing "short cards." at certain To-
cality known as Frog Level. Col. "
defended him, and contended before the jury,
that his client with bottle Of liquor in his
pocket accompanied the crowd who, it was
shown, did actually play, yet it never did with
absolute certainty locate him as one Of the
players Said he, by way of expostulation
"Gentlcmen of the Jury, the witness have
told you that Peter Wyatt was thar, and a
playing; for he noticed his hand, and it was
full on Queensl
Harry Snow was thar, and HK was playing,
for HE hilt two little par.
William Upton was thar, HE played, cause
witness noticed in particular, that HE had
nothin' but an ace
Bill Connor was thar and HE played gen.
tlemen for he had the bully hand-four high
heeled Jacks!
But, gentleman, when / come to ask him
about Abraham Ptkin-my clients hand,
what did he say, gentleman Why, nothin,
gentleman, except that if he held any hand,
he disremembered what was in it! And now
gentleman of the jury, if my client was seen
going down to Frog Level with a bottle of
liquor in his pocket. and the witness can't re-
member if he hilt any hand at oil, when bnlly
hands was out, and him the best player in the
crowds that say. gentleman Of the Jury
is that any reason that my client was guilty
Of the crime of Gambolng?

tleman who was travelling eastward, a short
time since went to the clerk of one of the

Our friena went in the direction indicated,
but opened the next door to his own, marked
A, where he discovered lady passenger ma
king her toilet, who, upon the strangers ap-
pearence, uttered a low scream.
"Go away! go awayw screamed the lady.

A TOUCHING APPEAL-The editor of the
Binghamptou Standard thus addresses his
patrons:
Where is the money coming from to pay
for paper for our next issueg We cannot
get quire without the cash in advance We
have borrowed until our credit is gone We
have worked two years for nothing and board
ed ourselves-or rather our wife has boarded
us, ''free gratis for nothing" Our compost
tors want their wages. Our landlord wants
his rent. Our children want shoes and our
wife wants new calico dress. We are out
of wood, out Of potatoes, out Of -four, out
OF meat, out Of butter, out of sugar, out Of
patience-in short, out Of nearly everything
except clear conscience We lodged the
sheriff until we could dodge no longer; and
have lodged our creditors until we are tired.
We have not shilling in our pockets, and
you owe us two thousand dollars! We are
trying to live christian life, and hope to get
to heaven. 1t affords us no satisfaction to
think we shall not meet you there. We
should prefer to have you pay us, and there
by remove a very great obstacle in the way
Of reaching that place OF rest.

UYMITIGArED BoREs.-There is no greater
and more intolerable bore than your idle vis-
itor, who either for want Of brains, or want
of politeness is perpetually, intruding his So
ciety at the most unreasonable times. The
truth Of the assertion is more forcibly realized
by editors than the members of any other
profession. Some people will not realize the
fact, that an Editors brain, embracing his
education, knowledge and experience in life,
is his capital:- that he cannot write like a
machine, and expect to CLEAN either benefit
or pleasure from such writing; that like
Richard" he must feel "in the vain" to do
justice to any particular topic, and finally,
that he must first experience certain inspi-
ration relative to his theme before he can do
it, or himself credit. We therefore republish
the following curt and satirical comments on
the conduct Of unthinking and idle visitors,
hope that it will. for time at least, cause
cessation Of the annoyance Sunday
Times.
Editors are sometimes afflicted by idlers,
who "just dropped in" to overhaul the Eek
changes" and to borrow some of the most
valuable ones When choice Magazines hap
pen to reach the editors table, Paul Pry is
on hand, mutteringsy wonders why the
leaves have not been cuti" Asks the editor
if he ever expects to read all these papers?
Thinks his task must be hard one; while
he, the sympathysing Mr.. Pry, occupies his
time and table and sometimes his scissors
After exhausting the patience of the good
natured editor, CHATS u.s. Mr. Pry very
coolly requests him to save" certain papers,
"if he don't wish to use tbem,' until he calls
again Mr. p. cannot afford to subscribe-be-
sides the papers are so full of trash that he
is utterly disguised with the whole of them.
But he likes to glance over them.

pd-In lecture on China, DR.. Bowring
said it had been calculated that if all the
bricks, stones and masonry of Great Britain
were gathered together, they would not fur
nish materials enough for work such as the
Wall of China; and that all the buildings in
London put together would not have made
the turrets and towers that adorn il.
