nous and foCl-hardy Sam Patch, who lost his
life in jumping over the Gennesee Falls at
Rochester, New York 1t will be remember

and also at Niagara

Western Eloquence.

Gentlemen of the jury" said western
lawyer, "it is with feelings of no ordinary
commotion that | rise to defend my injured
client from the attacks which have been made
on his heretofore unapproachable character
feel, gentlemen, that though q great deal
smarter than any of you, even the Judge him.

+" The counsel for the prosecution, gentle
men, will undoubtedly heave dust in your eyes.

doubted and implacable voracity-that he
would scorn 10 fotch an action against anoth-
er merely to crafty his own corp0rosity but,
gentlemen. let me cautonate you how to rely
upon such spacious reasoning like this I,my-
SELF apprehend that this suit has been wiful-
ly and maliciously focht, gentlemen, for the
sole and only purpose of browbeating my eli
ent here, aud in an eminent manner grinding
the face of the poor and | apprehend, also,
if you could bat look into that mans heart,
and read there the motives that have impelled
him TO totch this suit, such a picture of moral
turpentlne aud heartfelt gratitude would be
brought to light as has never before been ex-
hibited since the Falls Of Niagara
Now, gentlemen, | want to make q bril-
liant appeal TO the kind simmetries of your
nattr. and see if | can't warp four judgment
a little in favor of nv unfortunate client here.

that YOU will not permit the cnshings of your
sympathizng hearts to be squeuched in the

guments of my ignorant opponent on the other
side
The law expressly declares, gentlemen, in
the beautiful words of Shakespeare. that where
no doubt exists of the guilt of the prisoner, it
is your duty to lean upOn the side Of justice
and fotch him 10 innocent If You keep this
fact in view in the case of my client, gentle
men, you will have the honor Of making a
friend of him and all his relations, and you
can alters look upon this occasion and reflect
with pleasure that you did as You would have
been done by but if, on the other hand, YOU
disregard this great principle of law, and set
at nought uy eloquent remarks, and fotch him
in guilty, the silent twitcheS of conscience will
