WITNESS

VI ANEOo.
Isaac Brown is carpenter. living IN
The Sth Ward He had some bnsi9sss
transactions with John Smith. and cave
him a note for $75, which, IL is alleged,
he did not meet when due. Smith
went to dun him, for the iftieth time.
and Brown came TO the conclusion mai
lhls impertience was iutolerable. Ho nc.
coFdingly Knocked him down upon the
side walk, and told him 70 bo on. And
"not bother him any more about thai
aocursed note" Smith was displeased
with the treatment he received. and had
Brown arrested for assault and batte.
! ry.
The case came up in Special Sessions.
aud the complainant swore 70 the facts
stated. Brown proposed TO prove that
smith struck the first blow, aud his first
witness was the physician who attended
( the complainant, who swore positively
that he knew nothing about Il. The
next witness was an old man, who saw
the skirmage from window, on the
/ opposite side Of the street.
The Court asked "Did you SOC this
fight or ASSAULT"
Witness Louder II you please; I'm
hard Of hearing"
The Court, (in loud voice "Did
you see this atfairY"
Witness; Louder, il you please; I'm
most deaf"
The Court, (at the top Of his voioe).
"Did-you--see ee-this-6ghtY"
Witness; "Well, was at the window
opposite"
The Court: "Die you sec It? ask"
Witness. "Well, wasn't fur of I
was lookin'."
The Court, with great impatienoe):
''Do answer my question, and tell me
if you saw this 6ghIg"
Witness "you win have to talk a little
louder, Judge I'm pretty deaf"
The Court said he had not the strength
to examine such witness, and called to
his aid man Of better lungs TO ask the
questions, who roared them out In a
voice that flled the room like a clap Of
thunder.
Ques.; "Did you see this fght?"
Witness; "Well, s'pose you'd call Il
so; wasn't fur off lookin."
Ques.---"Whst did you see?'
Ans. "Well, | saw him come up,
and they seemed 10 be abusing one
another, aud, | thought, talking provok-
ing"
The Court "Le. us come 10 the point
at once. Ask him who struck first. -
The question was accordingly put.
Ans. "Well, they seemed to be knock
ing away at little"
Ques.i (Which man struck the first
blow?"
Ans: "Well. should think he hit
him pretty smart rap on the head"
Ques.; "Who2"
best"
The Courts "Tell him he either seen
it or did not soc il; ask him which,
Ans. "Well, l was looking; want far
of my eyeisight amt none the bestj l m
part blind as we'll as deaf.
Cues; "Codld you see what was go
ing on?"
Ans; "Well, l don't know. / might
see as you'd term It,"
Cues: DID Smith strike the first blow?
Ans "Wel, don't know as you'd
term it strikesi he shook his fist; guess
he struck him, as you'd term IT,
The Court 60 the counsel Of the de-
fenseJ: "rhere, Mr.. S., what kind
ofa witness do you call this as you'd
term e. l don't want to hear him."
S. "If your honor please, he is an hon
est man, but old, and not very bright"
The Courti ''That's very evident
If you have d witness that knows any
thing, bring him on. don't want any
more Of this, as you'd terna a."
No other witness was produced, and
Brown was sent to the Penitentiary for
four months.

affords us the gratifying intelligence that there
were only sixteen deaths in the city during the
month of June. This, out of a population such
as ours, is indeed very small exhibit upon the
great scroll of mortality. Wheeling has been
noted always, SO far as we recollect for the gem

which, together with the many pecuniary ad-
vantages which she is able to present. must al

VALUABEE INvESroN.-The recent invention
of a lire.preserving state room door for steam
boats, is attracting considerable attention among
those interested The construction or arrange
ment for this door is in this wise: a sheet OF
India rubber is stretched upon each panel Of
the state room door, and fastened to the edges.
In the centre of each sheet is nouth-piecc sim
liar to those by which ordinary .life.preservers
are inflated Around theedges Of the doors are
rope loops, to which the needy persons may
cling, and thus be sustained. Each door is said
to be capable of holding four or five persons on
it with the greatest ease.
