p~ The Judge was trying at the Genessee
Circuit an action to which one of the par
ties happened to bea namesake of his. Dur
ing the trial, the party having an opportu'
nifty, thinking probably to gain some ad:
vantage By it, approached the Judge and
said: sWe are of the same name, Judge.
I've been making inquiries, and find we
are some relation to each other
sAhy said the Judge, lis that SO? Are
you sure of it.
sOh, yes,' said he, 'no doubt Of it,
sWell,' said the Judge, Il am very glad
to hear that-very glad indeed. I shall
get rid of trying your action. I shall dis
miss it because I can't sit in suit where
I am related to one of the parties!
This was little more than the party had
bargained for, and he began at once to pad
die off. After few inquiries as to the
Judges ancestry, and their residence, etc.,
Il think, Judge said he, Il was mistaken.
We are quite different families, and not at
all related
sAh! says the Judge, lis that So?
oh, yes, says he; there is no omistake a.
bout it.
well said,' the Judge, in a very emphat-
ic tone, I'm very glad to learn that-uery
glad. I Ishoula hate aagfaz to be related to
a man mean enough to attempt to ane'-
ence Court as you haveP
The would-be relative retired.

PECULIAR MODE OF INcULoATING vIR.
rUEs.-Two clergymen entering into con-
versation, one lamented the little power
his preaching and admonition had toward
reclaiming his parshioners from their vices,
to which the other replied that he had been
more lucky, for he had made many of them
proselytes to the capital virtues, namely,
faith, hope and repentance.
aye says the other, you have been
very fortunate indeed. But pray, by what
means did you bring them to so happy con.
version? p
why, borrowing their money; for, had
they not faith in me that I should repay
them, they would not have lent it, after I
had been indebted to them for some time
they hoped 1 would return it; but now
they know I cannot pay them, they heartily
repent ever having lent it to me-

sarsapara has, and deserves much the reputation OF
accomplishing these ends But the world has been eyre
ousy deceived by preparaonsof It, partly because the
drug alone has not all the virtue that claimed for IT, but
because many pretending consen

saparila, or anything else. - -.
During late years the public have been misled by large
bottles pretending to give quart Of Extract Of Sgrsapa

the Sick for they not only contain te any Sarsapa

bitter and painful disappointment has followed the use Of
the various extracts Of sarsapara which food the

call this compound Sarsapaa and intend supply such
