The Bench and fI,e Boz.

Judson I. Mills of South Carolina, was q Judge
of the District Court in Northern Texas, fond of a
Joke, but very decided in his discharge of daty.
Thomas Fannin Smith was practising lawyer at
the bar, and having shamefuily fnsstafed the law
in his address to the jury, turned to the Court and
asked the Judge to charge the jury accordingly.
The Judge was indignant, and replied:
q Does the counsel take the Coart to- he d foolgss
Smith was not abashed by the repreof, bat in
stantly responded:
AZ trust your Honor viii not insist on al answer
to that question: as might, in answering il, truly
be considered guilty of contempt Of Court, :,
Fine the counsel ten dollars, Mr. Clerk z said
the Judge.
smith Immediately paid the money, and remarked
that it was ten dollars than the Court could
Fine the counsel fifty dollars \ said the Judge.
The fine was entered by the clerk, and Smith not
being ready to respond in that sum, sat down. The
next morning, on the opening of the Court Smith
rose, and with much Difference addressed the
Judge:
8 May it please your Honor. the clerk took that
little joke OF yours, yesterday. about the fifty doll
lars as serious, as perceive from the reading Of
the minutes. Will yonr Honor be pleased to in
form him of his error, and have it erasedf''
The GOODNESS of the request and the implied
apology pleased the Judge, and he rernitted the
fine. ~

In one of the lower districts of the Palmetto

persons, who were known far and wide as the

who for long time had held undisputed posses

determined at length to pay visit to the ugly
family, and endeavor to dispose of the Aforesaid

and about noon he saw a wagon ahead, and rode
up to inquire the Whereabouts Of the family.
Hello, stranger u said he to q man walking by

hand upon the woman's hand, her head resting on
his bosom now-resting there like an infant, full
of love and trust, and mereifully blinded to one
dark stain in that bosom's secret depth; one spot
over which conscience bent its stern brow and
raised the upbraidng finger. They sat and dreamed
and talked like lovers, and the boat went on un-

the waves--a womans face, from which death had
stolen the life, but left beauty lingering STILL 1t

defiance at it over the boats edge, frowned down
at its dead lovelness and uttered no words though
his heart sent forth cry which went echoing
down through all the days of his YOUTH and the soul
of his manhood caught it and sent it up to heaven.
The wife saw no intruder in the bosom on which
she leaned. The oarsman bent again to his oars,
and the pale husband knew the face in the water
had glided from his view. The days went by.
Politicians crowded round the man of wealth
they asked for his gold for his time, for his talents
and he poured them out like water. Position and
honor and success greeted him at every turn j; and
