AN tEx-E EDITOR. AGAIN BEFORE TIE POLICE
CoURT.-Mr. George Ryan, an irritable, dis
eased and tyrannical specimen Of an ex-ed-
itor, was brought before the Police Court yes
terday morning for attempting to provoke
Mrs. Margaret Metzger and her son Jacob to
breach of the peace. The parties reside in
| different apartments of the same house, and as
no tenement has yet been found large enough
to contain two families, it may be supposed
| that in this one, which is quite small, there
| has been for some time past an attempt to dem
| onstrate how much ill-nature may exist in the
same building without being completely de-
molished with the explosive force of the harsh
feeling which is pent up in its inmates. %
For the benefit of portion Of the tenants
an organist a few days ago went into the hall
and began, in the manner peculiar to those
lazzaroni, to make the villainous noise which
| they call music, and at the same time to annoy
| the aforesaid author of one of the one thous.
and volumes on the Crimean War. His stocl
of patience, which was not large, soon became
exhausted, and he ordered the itinerant musi
clan to desist and depart, much to the chagrir
of his neighbors. At this they rebelled, ant
Ryan used toward some of the ladies Ian
guage which was admirably calculated to no
only wound their feelings, but also to excit
their ire.

A Yankee Trick.

We remember when we were living "down
east" of neighboring farmer hiring a jolly
Irishman, who was very fond oflearning tricks
One day his employer asked him if he wouldn't
learn Yankee trick. The Irishman ofcourse
was anxious to larn Yankee trick" Bring
ing him to The end brick barn, Jonathan
laid his open haud against the wall, remark
ing
"Pat, I'll bet the liquor you can't hit my
hand"
"It's done - says Pat, making o vicious
blow at the palm of the hand, but it being
quickly withdrawn, he succeeded in peeling
the skin and flesh off his knuckles.
"That's nasty trick!" roared Pat, "but
howed on, Eli cheat somebody else"
a few months passed, and Pats brother
came over from Ireland, as green as early
peas. Icy both laborcd together, but Pat
was uneasy till he should have learned his
brother the tricks
" Jim, did you ever larn Yankee trick ?''
"Nivcr."
Pat finding himself in the centre Of large
field. thought it would be Il great loss of time
to 20 the barn, and reaching out his open
hand, he cried" Sihrikp that if you can u

ing pulled away his hand, Jim fell after the
blow, remarkins that that "was an old
womau's thrick.
Thry it now!' shricked Pat, placing the
same open hand against his own mouth.
Jim prepared for sockdologer, and bring
ing his massive bunch of iives'; in loving
proximity with Pats nose and mouth, who
pulled away his hand as before, he sent him
rce!iug to the earth with four broken teeth
and a large quantity of blood, for "larnin
him the Yankee thrick."

The Family Man.

We like sometimes, on our evening journey
homeward in public convcyances, to pick out
Me hoppy family men; and they are by no
means so rare as sour, selfish people would
have lis believe. 1t gives us thrill of delight
10 see in their hands pickture-book, or toy,
or bouquet; for we'll We know the happiness
these $50 called) "triles' bring to the expec-
ting frcside circle. And well may a man
treasure his freside comforts; well may he
remember those who make toll light to him,
and guard him with loving hearts and pure
arms, from the blighting, communicating in
huences, which surround the solitary, yearn-
ing, unloved man in a great city. Well may
he throw himself down upon the sofa and
draw long breath Of relief, as the iron hand
Of barter and trade is lifted from his heart,
and the doors are thrown wide open for love
to enter. Well may he-like a miser-hoard
these happy moments, ere deaths shadow fall
on his threshold, and he wander through DESC
late rooms-familiar, yet oh, so fearfullY
strange! followed by little patteripg feet, that
wander up and down through the long day in
nursery and parlor, seeking her whose loss
shall be greater and greater each day to the
motherless. Oh, ye who have happy homes ;
who miss no dear head when the goodnight
blessing is given and taken into whose face
clear, innocent eyes look lovingly, talk not OF
tell or labor with such blessings as these.

A Legal Reminiscence.

An episode in he professional career of an
eminent jurist OF Pennsylvania, late Judge
of the Supreme Court, deserves to be.rescued
from oblivion. Soon after his admission to
the bar he had occasion to goto Williamsport
to argue his first case. As he was pacing
the deck of the canal.boat on which he was
journeying, he encountered group of three
substantial, rustic.looking persons, who were
deeply engaged in discussing the merits OF an
important lawsuit which had recently been
tried. Fresh from the study Of Blackstone,
and believing himself to be the embodiment OF
legal learning and the incarnation of juridical
scleGce, he joined the group, and stralghtway
proceeded to enlighten the party as to the
law bearing on the case. The opinions which
had been advanced he dogmatically pro
nounccd 10 be erroneous, and contrary to law,
reason, and precedent. His auditors listened
with profound attention until he had finished
his harangue, when one Of them quietly in.
formed the speaker that from his discourse it
was evident be was ignorant Of every principle
OF law-civil, common, and statute, written or
unwritten. 4 second added that he knew
nothing Of the rules Of logic, as was apparent
from his defective style of reasoning. The
third listener stated it as his conviction that
the intruder was also destitute of common
sense. Exasperated by such uncomplimenta-
ry remarks, the legal aspirent abruptly left
the group, and resumed his promenade on the
deck of the boat.
CHANGING to meet the skipper, inquired if he
knew those three old chaps who were talking
together, adding, with considerable asperity,
that they were the most stupid set of block
heads that ever lived
"Those thres old chaps, Mr.. K" responded
the ancient mariner, "are the Judges of the
Supreme Court, on their way to Williamsport,
where the Court opens tomorrow"
Mr. X. did not make his debit in the
Supreme Court at that session, but postponed
his appearance 10 a more convenient season.

NEVER ATTEMPT TO GET OUT OF DEBT.-Ihe
man who owes nobody is q poor, miserable
being; nobody manifests any interest in his
welare-nobody cares q continental cent
whether he lives or dies. He is lean, hungry
and generally as poor and wilted as were the
pin-feathers on Jobs turkey. Look at our
great men; they are all debtors-owe every.
body our men of science, our authors, our
sensation ministers-all, the entire cahoot OF
them, are deeper in debt than Pharoah's army
were in the Red Sea. Debt ennobles man !;

cially if he never pays rent. Nothing will
cure the consumption quicker than strong
dose of debt properly taken. To owe, is hu-
man; to pay is divine Therefore, till man
becomes superhuman he shouldn't attempt
to emulate divinity. The science ofpayment,
the true modern science, is to get in debt to
somebody enough to pay somebody else whom
you owe. By this means, you avoid getting
out Of debt, and yet maintain reputation of
paying. The greatness of nation increases
with its national debt. Make note of this

in reference to the influences which will con-.

Douglas and Iverson.--Who are the
Herecics7

We publish in another column, most re
markable article from the Augusta Constltu,
tionalist. Senator Iverson has thrown himself
forward as the head and front, the very poin'
to the spear, of Southern ultraism in Georgia
None so violent in his opposition to Judge
Douglas views on the question OF slavery in
the Territories. He declares that Douglas is
traitor-a deserter-false to the party
and recreant to the dictates of constitutional
obligation. That his territorial views are
wholly, unconditionally, and most perniciously
heretical. Such was the tenor OF his recent
speech. 1t was abounding in all that could
enkindle the fires of enthusiasm in the ardent
bosoms of those whost cherish the traditions
of fdisunion and the bright, fanciful visions Of
Southern confederacy. 1t was evidently a
bold dash for leadership by an attitude Of
vehement antagouiSm to Judge Douglas. I'm
fortunately for the Senator, he had in former
years been 8 member of the Federal
House of Representatives, and had there
expressed his views on the question that is
now being so uselessly agitated by politicians
Still more unfortunately that speech was ac-
curately recorded in the Congressional De-
bates. And still more unfortunately, some
prying parsonage has rescued it from oblivion
and paraded it for special perusal at this time
very inopportunely, Senator Iverson doubt.
less thinks when "tho crisis is approaching"
and Georgia elections are about to take place.
In this speech we find that Senator Iverson
occupied substantially the position which now
strikes him as being so heretical in Judge
Douglas. 1t will be seen chat he not only ad-
vocated non.intervention by Congress, but
went the entire length and was willing to leave
it to the people of the Territories to decide,
without even providing for their unconstitu
tional legislation being over.ruled by judicial
interposition. This was the platform to which
he urged Northern men to meet him. Judge
Douglas meets him there by invitation
together they fight through two Presidential
campaigns, when suddenly, after the lapse of
ten years of cordial cooperation, Senator
Iverson wheels upon his political confederate,
mathematics him as o hereto whom it were
contamination to associate with, and excom.
municates him from the fellowship Of the true
fold. Can anything more strikingly illustrate
the wretched uncertainty Of reliance in politi-
clans, and the little significance really to be
attached TO their buncombe defamation, pre-.
pared for temporary display?

How AND WHEN TO EAT FRUIT.-Fruit
should not be INDUCED in between meals, as
though it was luxury, but used in moderation
at meat time, in the place of animal and other
food. 1t should not be eaten for desert, after
full meal has been made, as is usually done
"a custom which cannot be too severely re-
pretended. Fruit may, with safety, be eaten
at any meal, but it would be we'll to confne
it to breakfast. The old saying will be found
true by practice. "Fruit is gold in the morn
ing, silver at noon, and lead at night" Let
it constitute part of the breakfast, and be
eaten at no other period of the day, let it be
ripe and not eaten immoderately, and ineal.

most awful of deaths in which the King of

measures were at once sIudiously adopted in
his behalf Despite these, he steadily grew
worse. For the most part entirely conscious
of his condition, he gradually, became the
helpless prey of series of terrible spssms,
which hopelessly increased in intensity and
frequency. His agonies were as if an internal
fire were consuming him. In ncalmer intervals,
when water could be offered him, he would
