Coon ENGLIsH.-Judge Jones of Indiana,
who never allows a chance for n joke to pass
him, occupied the bench, when it became nee
essary to obtain juryman in case in which
L and C were employed as counsel.
The former was an illiterate Hibernian, and
the latter decidedly German in his modes of
expression
The sheriff Immediately proceeded to look
round the room in search of a person to fill
the vacant seat when he espied Dutch Jew,
and claimed him as his own. The Dutchman
objected:
4 can't understand goot Englese"
"What did he say 2" asked the Judge.
Il can't understand goot Englese," he re-
peated.
Take your seat" said the Judge: "take
your seat; that's no excuse you are not like
ly to hear any of it."
Under that decision he took his seat.

ABsINTIIE-A French paper thus discOurses
on this bgVsES which is so taForite SnTsPpetlte
provoker among EOropeans
China has her opium, the east has chich,
England her gin. In France we have poison
that is imbued with the qualities of all these
pos0Rs, aud powerful 'Stimuiant that galvan-
ICES the nerves and feyerishly surcharges the
brain we have absinthe.
Under pretext of creating an appetite, the
present generation has commenced drinking
thisietestable stuff which rs now. as conpndII
with US as the pipe and cigar. s1
We despise, without sympathiZing with
them, those ignoble brutes who seek in beast
" drunkenness the most abasing pleasures
beings with haggard ewes and trembling steps
-grog shop devOtees, who drink for the sake
of drinking, without caring for what they
drink.
We would not SO bitterly. attack absinthe if
its rSvages had been confined TO this class of
drinkers UnhappHy the fanatics Of the green
Iqueur' are to be found in another class of
society more noble and intelligent, Artists,
and especially literary, men, have in but few
years past become addicted to its use and
abuse in a lamentable degree. Almost all
seek from it fictitious fever and the inspira-
ton thatis leaving them, without thinking that
the next day and the next, to obtain the same
effect, they must indulge in a still stronger
dose gandl that in accustOming themselves to
this facie excitement, which comes when called
for, they dull their intelects and destroy their
health.
The effects of the poison are terribly crush
ing. A feverish ecstacy, full of delirious
dreams, of wild inspirations, is followed by an
overwhelming debility, a continual state of
sOmnOlency. The eyes become dull and the
hands tremble. No more work can be done
unless preceded by dram of absinthe. Be
meath these ceaseless attacks, reason reels, and
a fatal day comes when the drinker finds
drunkenness, and never again finds 'inspira-
ton Then he is lost beyond the hope of re-
covery. What was a necessary prelude to his
labor becomes degrading passion, daily
indulgence which he has not the courage to
abandon. The poet is dead within him, and
the drunkard alone remains.
Like opium, absinthe has had its fanatics
and its victims. Unhappy victims, whom we
cannot refrain from pitying-noble minds,
drowned in this dark and sickening liquid.
We have seen them pass by with despair
ing glance and trembling steps-the shadows
of their former selves-still unconscious of
their misfortune. Gerard de Nerval, the
charming writer, and the delightful novelist,
sought in absinthe, brighter fancies and more
glowing imagining. Alfred de Musset, great
poet, wounded to the heart, sought in this
terrible poison, forgetfulness of his mysterious
sorrow.
Gerard de Nerval hung himself in the win.
dow of miserable den.
Alfred de Musset died, after ten years forget
fulness of his genius-died without being able
to utter, at his last hour, song as sublime as
those he sang in his bright youth"
