There are certain things in this world
which have so uniformly turned out in the
same way, that nobody dreams of their re-
sulting in any other. In short, they are
matters of course" For example.
When bank suspends specie payments,
it is always done for the benefit of the pub
lie, as IA matter Of course.
If the said bank becomes irretrievably in
solvant, and is forced to liquidate its affairs,
the directors publish card stating that the
assets are amply sufficient to pay everything,
as matter of course.
People who put any degree of confidence
in such statements are always deceived and
disappointed, rs a matter OF course.
When n man commits murder, or for
gerry, and is detected and tried, he is proved
to be insane, as a matter of course.
When fire occurs, whether it proves de-
structive Of property or not, it is the work
of an incendiary, as matter of course.
When two locomotives come into collision
on a railroad, destroying each other, knock
ing half dozen cars to pieces, killing "A
dozen passengers, and wounding twice as
many more the public is promised full in
formation concerning the same, as a matter
of course
When such information comes, if at all,
it exculpates everybody from blame, as a
matter OF course.
When a ouack medicine is invented, it is
tremendously y pufed, as a matter Of course,
But everybody who believes one-half that
is stated of its wonderful virtues, gets eyre
giously humbugged as matter of course,
Every man Of intelligence and common
sense is a subscriber to newspaper, and,
if he is honest, he pays his subscription
punctually, as a matter of course

Pigs were tried und burnt for assaulting
or killing children. and horses also for killing
people; as one was at Dion, in 1889, for
killing its master. Bertrand Chassanee,
President Of the Parliament of Province,
defended the rats who were indicted, even
so late as the beginning Of the sixteenth
century In a work which he published in
1881. he decides that animals are amenable
to trial; and gives accounts Of indictments
against May-bugs and snais at Autun and
Lyons, and Of the celebrated cause des
Rats. in which he was counsel for the de-
fendants. \ treatise was published, even
so late as 1865, by Casper Bailey, lawyer
Of CRANBERRY, on legal proceedings against
animals, with forms Of indictments and
modes OF pleading.
Such trials have taken place in England
also. An account Of one Of these trials of a
dog. was published in a pamphlet; from
which it appears that the trial took place
near Chichester in III, and that the chief
actors in it were four country gentlemen
named Butler Aldridge. Challen and Bird
ger A clever burlesque of this trial was
written by Edward Long, Esq, Judge of
the Admiralty Court in Jamaica; but it was
founded on fact. Such proceedings appear
strange to us, and may seem unaccOuntable;
but they were, after ALL but grave and
formal mode of proceeding for the end
which is attained in our days by more
summary proce..-the destruction of ami
mails who have been the cause Of death, or
serious injury to man. In this country,
nothing of this kind has taken place If
the animal be dangerous, We kill him with
ont ceremony

CAUTION TO YOUNG MEN.-A young
medical student from Michigan, who has
been attending lectures in New York for
some time. and considered himself exceed
ingly good looking and fascinating, made a
deadly onset on the heart and fortune OF a
blooming young lady who was boarding ii
the same family with him. After a pro.
longed siege the lady surrendered. They
We're married on Wednesday morning The
same afternoon the young wife sent fol
and exhibited 10 the astonished student &
beautiful little daughter, three and 9
| half years of age. Good heavens then
you were a widow, exclaimed the student.
Yes, my dear, and this is Amelia; my
youngest; tomorrow, Augustus, James and
Reuben will arrive from the country and
then | shall have all my children together
once more.
The unhappy student replied not word,
his feelings were too deep for utterance.
The next day the ''other darlings arrived
Reuben was six years, James nine, Au-
gustus a saucy boy Of twelve. They were
delighted to hear they had new papa,
because they could now live at home and
have all the playthings they wanted The
NEW papa, a. soon as he could speak, re-
marked that Augustus and james did not
much resemble Reuben anu Ameia.
"Well, no, said the happy mother; my
first husband was quite different stile Of
man from my second--complexion, tempera-
ment, the color of hair and eyes--all differ
ent.
This was too much. He had not only
married a widow, but was her third husband,
and astounded step-father of four children.
but fortune" thought he, that will
make amends. He spoke of her fortune;
These are my treasures, said she, in the
Roman matron style, pointing to her child
ren. a.,
The conceit was now quite out of the
Michigander, who, finding that he had
made a complete goose of himself, at once
retired to farm in his native state, where
he could have a chance to make his boys
useful, and make them sweat for the deceit
practced upon him by their mother

what Makes a Lady (!

When Beau Brummel vas asked what
made the gentleman, his quick reply was
Starch, Starch, my lordl' This may be
true: but it takes great deal more to make
lady and though to some it may seem sin
gular, am ready to maintain that no con
ceivable quantity Of muslin, silk or satin,
edging. frilling, hopping founcing. or
furbelowing. can per sc or per dressmaker,
constitute a real lady.
Was not Mrs Abbot Lawrence Just as
much a lady when attired in twelve cents
calico in Boston. as when arrayed in fHl
conrt at st james, London? ''As Mrs
Washington was said to be so grand lady
