A Novel PIeS,

A Judge relating the following incident
that occurred in his practice -
He was trying petty case, in which
one OF the parties was not able to pay couD-
sci fee, and undertook to Ilead his own
case. But he found, in the course of the
trial, that the keen and adroit attorney who
managed the case for the other party was
too much for him in legal strategy, evil
IDENTIFY making the worse appear the better
cause.
The poor man, Mr.. a, was in state Of
mine bordering on desperation, when the
opposing coun=el closed his plea and the
case was abont to be submitted to the JUS
tice for decision.
May it please your honor said the
man, may pr ay;?' The Judge was tai
ken somewhat by surprize. and could only
say that be saw no objections, Whereup-
Oh Mr.. A. went down upon his knees, and
made fervent prayer, in which he laid
the merits of his case before the Lord in a
very clear and methodical statement of all
particulars, Heading that right and justice
might prevail. o Lord, thou knowest
that this lawyer has miarepreseDted the
facts, aud thou knowest tb at il is so and 80, ,
to the end of the cha2ter.
Arrangements which he could not pre-
sent IN local array to tn e understanding of
men. he had no difficulty in addressing to
the Lord, being evidently better versed in
praying than pettfogging. When he rose
from bis knees, Esquire W, the opposing
council, very much exaggerated by the
turn which the Case had taken, said 'Mr.
Justice does not the closing argument be
long to me ? To which the judge replied
You cen clOse il with prayer it you

Esquire W. was in the hsbitof praying

SINCE THE RIVER closed, great inconveni-
ence has been experienced by passengers
wishing to cross at Bellair. For the past
week or two travellers have been compelled
70 walk over on the ice. Now that the ice
has begun to soften, it is considered danger
Gus toventure out upon il, and many pas
sengers come up TO this city to cross the
river. Yesterday drove OF hogs were
brought in ON the Central Ohio Road, de-
signed for shipment over the Baltimore
route. The hogs were all taken from the
cars and drove to the river bank. 1t was
deemed best to permit but about twenty
five to cross at time. A squad was start
ed over, when the balance took it into their
heads to "follow suit" The whole drove
was soon upon the ice and in attempting
to drive them back, the men got them scat
tered along the river for hundred yards
above and below. When the porkers reach
ed the Virginia shore, considerable difficulty
was experienced in getting them together
Those who witnessed the crossing, pro-
nounced it "bg thing on ice"
