DANiEL WEBSTER PUT DOWN BY A Wo-
AAN-Ihe Reai Estate Register publishes an
incident in Daniel Webster's experience ne
lawyer, which we have never seen in pript
before - pa "'
In the somewhat famous case of Mrs. Bod
gems will, which was tried in the Supreme
Court some years ago, Mr.. Webster appeared
as counsel for the appellant.
Mrs. Greenough, wife of Rev. VIM, Green.
ough' late OF West Newton, tall, straight
queenly-looklng woman, with a keen. black
eye-a woman of great self-possession and de-
clslon OF character-was called to the stand az
witness on the side opposite Mr.. Webster.
Webster, at glance, had the sapacitv to
torsee that her testimony, if it contained any,
thIng OF Importance, would have great weight
with the court and jury. He, therefore, re-
solved, If possible, to break her IN. And
when she answered to the first question put
to her, 81 believe" Webster roared out awe
don't want to hear what YOU believe. we
want to hear what you know :"
Mrs Greenwood replied. THAT is lust what
was about TO say, sir" and went on with
her testimony And. notwithstanding his re-
peated efforts to discomfort her, she pursued
the even tenor OF her way, until Webster, be-
coming quite fearful of the result, arose, ap-
parently IN great agitation, and, drawing out
n
ger to the very bottom, and carving the deem
pinch to both nostrils, drew it up with gus
to and neZt. extracting from his pocket
very large handkerchief, which flowed down
to his feet as he brought it to the front, he
bowed his nose with a report that rang dis
tnct and loud through the crowded hall.
Webster-Mrs. Greenough, was Mrs. Blod-
gen neat woman
Mrs. Greenough-I cannot give you very
full information as to that, sir, but she had
one very dirty trick.
Webster-What was that, ma'am?
Mrs. Greenough-She took snuff,
The roar of laughter from all persons in the
court house was such, that the future "de-
fender of the Constitution" subsidized and
neither rose or spoke again until Mrs. Green
ough had vacated her cdair for another wit
ness-having ample time to reflect upon the
lnglorious history of the man who had stone
thrown on his head by woman.

LEARNING AND APPBTITE.-It has been well
known, at least since the days of DR.. john
son, that nature often furnishes the men of
large brains with good digestive apparatus
But this truth has seldom been more strik-
ingly expressed than it was lately by cele-
brated colored caterer, who practices his use
full profession in one of our cities, which is
removed for its excellent school of learning.
A lady was about to make party and invite
among others the Faculty of the College,
She therefore held consultation with the
caterer about the preparations which were
necessary. She was somewhat surprised at
the estimates which he presented, aud ven
tured to demonstrate with him little.
"Them College folks is comm :" inquired

phasis, "for, marin, them larned 'ligious peo-

SENATOR SEwARD's SPEEcH.-The Repub-
Hean papers give themselves unnecessary
trouble i'm defending the Rochester speech Of
Mr.. Seward. Those who have sufficient in
terest in the subject to read the speech will
find in it only the sentiments upon freedom
that every body expressed till within a few
years. till the time when the South, animated
by continued triumphs, and by the success of
every fresh aggression, had commenced the
pohey OF defending as positive blessing the
institution that hitherto she, in common with
all the world had admitted to be an evil and
had lamented as a necessary evil. Mr. Sew
ard expresses nothing more Objectionable than
hope that the time may come when freedom
shall prevail all over the land, and in order
to prevent any possible misconstrueton of his
meaning, he says
at remains to say on this point only one
word to guard against misapprehension. If
these States are to again become universally
slaveholding, 4 do not pretend to say with
what violations of the constitution that end
shall be accomplished. On the other hand,
while do confidently believe and hope that
my country will yet become land of univer-
sal freedom, do not expect that it will be made
so otherwise than through the action Of the
several States cooperating 10Th the federal
government, and all acting IN strict conformity
toith their respective constitutions
UPon such foundation is built the Demo-
cratic charge of Stewards brutal and bloody
manifesto" The ground of this is not in his
speech. 1t is not anything that he has said
that has excited all this affected indignation.
1t is because the course of events has made
Mr.. Seward more prominent than ever before,
and more formidable to the Democrats. The
speech is mainly the prctext for what would
be done equally upon some other pretext, or
upon no pretext at ALL If Mrs. Seward had
read the Declaration of Independence, or
recited the Lords Prayer, we should have
had the same denunciation, and the same ap-
peals, and the same slanderous misrepresent-
atoms.
Mr.. Hammond can say in South Carolina
that he is in favor of slavery everywhere,
and there is no complaint made; Mr. Seward
says that he is in favor of freedom everywhere,
and it is "brutual and bloody manifesto
Mr.. Hammond says that he is in favor of the
Union so long as it can be made to subserve
the purposes of the South, and he is eminent
ly conservative. Mr.. Seward says that he ia
in favor Of substituting free labor for slavery
in strict accordance with law and with the
popular will, and he is sectional" 1t is not
what Mr.. Seward says that furnishes argu-
ment against him, but what his opponents are
determined to charge upon him, whether he
says it or not.-ProUsdeRoe Journal.
