~ A lady's leg was recently sezed--(O,
horrible! most horribie.)-by deputy Of the
Sheriff Of New I0ieans. 1t appears that
lady OF The Crescenl City had ordered and re-
ceived an artificial leg from The manufacturer
for $3.50, and afterwards declined paying for
the same. The maker had writ issued, re-
quiring The Sheriff 10 take The leg inio his pos
session. That gentleman gave his deputy 'he
disagreeable job, and the latter funciionary,
after some trouble, obtained the litgated limb
and il is now In the SherifTs Office at New
