A PRECOCIoUs YOUrH.-Some time during
the last year, young sprig of the law was adj
mitted to the Suffolk bar His father a pru-
dent old codger, gave him hundred dollars to
purchase library of books and told him that
was all he could do for him at that time, but
that by industry, prudence, and immediate en-
forcement Of payment of all sums that might be
his due, he had no doubt that he would get
along. A few days after, the old man dropped
into Johns Office and borrowed fifteen dollars of
the money he had given him, promising to pay
1t by IL o clock next day. ''An right, dad, said
John, ''give me your memorandum. The next
day, at twelve, pa did not appear, and John i'm
mediately served writ upon him, and put a
keeper in his house, just as the old man was sit
ting down to dinner That is what We call an
instance sharp practice.

STRANGE INCIDENTAL curious incident oc-
Cured recently at the Cambridge Observatory,
where Messrs. WhIpple Black were engaged

are at present unable to explain this singular in
cident. II will probably be Investigated by SCI
entiac men.
