day IN question, menagerie was ex,
pected in the city, and the people were
naturally on the qui vise for the ap-
proaching sIghts--an interest in which,
as the sequel shows, his Honor, the

progress of the mornings business, a case
Of continuance arose which the Judge
was evidently not at all inclined to favor
His countenance, indeed, grew absolutely
stern with disiavor. The lawyer in
charge, having urged his plea with all
the ingenuity and ability at his command
was at length in the act of yielding the
point in despair, when brother lawyer,
especially up to snuff. rose and whisper

arrived, and the elephant would swim
the river, The suggestion was big with
relief. Frightening with hope, the willy
lawyer at once drew himself up deferen-

banks to witness the extraordinary feat"
The hi; was pal lpabe. The intelligence
Of Buchanan's election could hardly have
wrought more wonderful change in
tue bearing of his Honor. His stern
countenance at once relaxed into the
most genial compIacencv, and, in a tone
Of generous excitement, he remarked -
Gentlemen, | grant this continuance,

any other pod, and that too, in a shorter
time than on the most nutritious grains.
In an experiment made to test the value
of the article, four turkies were taken
