RIGHTS OF WITNESSES. English Lords
of the bench decided at Westminister about o
month ago, thatit was principle of common law
that o counselor, in questioning witness, should
address him in ordinary tones, and In language
of respect, such as is employed by one gentle
man in conversation with another; that such o
lawyer has no right to question the private bus
ness Or the moral character of witness, any fur
thcr than it is apparent they absolutely affect his
reliability, or touch the case in hand; and that
witness is not bound to answer questions put
to him in an insulting Or annoying manner. If
forced to answer by the court, he will have his
remedy in action 1!t for damages.
Prof Morse, fifteen years ago, in letter to
the then Secretary of fhe Treasury, the Hon.
John c. Spencer, gave utterance to prophecy
which has been fulfilled in the complete success
Of the Atlantic Telegraph:
"The practical inference from this law Is that
telegraphic communication on the electro-nag-
netic plan may with certainty be established
across the Atlantic Ocean. Startling as this
may now seem, am confident the time will
come when this project will be realiized."
DEATH IN CHILpHooD.-Hov true and ex-
ouisitely beautiful i the following impressive
tassage, which is taken from an article in the
dublin U4irersity Magqzine "To me, few
things appear SO beautiful as q very young child
in its sEFoqd, The little, innocent face looks
so sublimely simple and confding amongst the
cold terrors Of death, Crmeless and fearless,
that little mortal has passed alone under the
shadow, and explored tho mystery of dissolu-
tion. fhere is death in its sublimest and purest
image, no hatred, no hypocrisy, no suspicion,
no care for the morrow ever darkened that lit
tie face death has come lovingly upon 1t there
is nothing cruel or harsh in its victory. The
warnings of love- indeed, cannot be stitfed |;
for the prattle and smile, all the little world of
thoughts that were so delightful, are gone for
ever. Awe, too, win overcast us in its presence,
for we are looking on death, but we do not fear
for the lonely voyaser; for thechild has gone,
simple and trusting, into2the presence Of its all
wise Father; and Of such, We know, is the
kingdom Of heaven"
