Sammy Cox Cornered.

washington correspondent Of the Gin

on the Naval Appropriation bill by making
speech on amalgamaiion, which he in.

him but Cox very fatty refused to yiold q
moment. He sat down when wasbburn got
the floor, armed with a small volume. some.
times quoted in political campaigns In tho
Columbus District known as The Buckeve
Abroad. He said he was delighted to hear
Coxs speech again. He he'd beard II mapv
timos here and was always pleased with IL
but from the late Ohio elections no fear ed
no would never have an opportunity to.
near again. Meantime, although the Ad-
m'nisfration side was not quite willing to 90
the length on amalgamation and ucpro

yet he was very glad TO be able to produce
another who did. He then proceeded to

TIE Condition of the South.

A debate in the Rebel House of Rep.
resen'aiives on the Both of January gives.
good insight into the condition of affsirs
in the South. During the debate. Mr..
Smith, of North Carolina, said that the
army bad four hundred thousand men ON
.hn tnns'oF roll, and only half tha, number
IN active service. He added that i, vas
impossible to feed even a fractional part
OF the army. and asked, if food wss seized
tor these, what would become Of the peo.
PIE ct home Another member said :bat,
Il they made draft. they could not closbe
tho army. and Mr.. Goode, OF Virginia, said
thaf his State could not stand draft. 9th
o. speakers favored the policy of delay
and stubborn holding out. in order to wear
out the patience of the North, DESTROY its
finances, and perhaps find relief 10 the sue.

That debate tells The whole story. Short
Of food, short Of clothes. What further
proof is required o: the speedy collapse Of
the Confederacy. if our people will mako

A Legal Anecdcte.

The Round Tube OF last week has
something overa column of pleasant Cos.
sip about Washington Irving,ln the course
OF which occurs the following anecdote
related TO Mr.. Irving by the late ex Pres
ident Van Buren,, OF the celebrated legal
orator Elisha Williams. Of Columbia coun
ty.
He was a most graceful speaker, and
his voice particularly in its pathetic tones,
was melody itself. All VINO remember
Ogden Hoffman's voice (he was called
"The F'ule" by his fellow members of the
bar OF New York, can appreciate the
melliAuous organ Of Mr.. Williams. His
power over a jury WIS astonishing. He
swayed them as with the wand OF an en-.
chsnler. and it was very seldom lhst he
failed to secure verdict Tor his client.
But on one occasion he did, iu such
a perfectly ridiculous manner, tha. a
crowded court and grave judges on the
bench were convulsed with laughter at
The burlesque Of the result. He was
completely discounted by an ignorant,
impudent. uulettered pe,tifogger, who
knew moi particle Of law. bui somehow
or other had obtained the credit Of shrc wd .
ness and the reputation among his farmer
neigbbors OF being hard to beat.
The case il we remember rightly was
an act Of murder. Mr.. Williams. oil
course on the ground OF his power over
the jury was for the defence. His pero.
ration was exceedingly touching and beau
iiful:
"Gentlemen Of the jury" said he, "ii
you can find this unhappy prisoner at the
bar guilty Of the crime with which he is
charged, after The adverse and irrefraga-
ble arguments which have laid before
you, pronounce your fatal verdict. Send
him TO lie in chains upon his dungeon
floor, waiting the death which he is to
receive at your hands; then go 10 the
bosom Of your famlies--go lay your heads
on your pillows and sleep Dyou can !"
The effect Of these closing words OF the
great legal orator was at first thrilling
but by and'by the pettifogger. who had
volunteered TO follow the prosecuting al.
lorney, arose and SAID:
,"Gentlemen Of the jury: i should des
pair. after The weeping speech which hat
been made TO you by Mr.. Williams, o.
saying anything 10 do away with its elo
quence. / never beard Mr.. William
speak that piece Of hisn'n better thar
what he spoke it jest now. Once heerr
him speak it in case Of stealing, dowr
to Hghlicoke; then be spoke it ag'i
in case Of rape. up to Esopus; and thu
las. time | beerd it, before just now, wa
when them niggers was lried-and con
victed. too. they was-for robbing Vsl
P.h's hen house, over beycud Kingston
But ! never know'd him to speak 1t 81
elegant aud affeclin' as what be spoke
Jest nowl'
This was a poser! The jury looke'
at one another. whispered together an'
our pettifogger saw at once that be ha,
got shem. He stopped at onoe-closinI
with the remark:
"lf you can't see. gentlemen OF :h
jury that this one speech don't answe
all cases, then there's no use-t Of my say
ing anything more"
And there wasn't, he had made hi
case and they awarded him their verdict

From fiery lips no longer curled

Fast sinking in tho arms of death.
He raised his hand. and brushed ienr ;

For one love now waits TO hear
The latest news from Gettysburg.
'Tis IF my mother would speak,
For great ! know her grief will be;
And tears will wot her faded check,
Whom she shall hear ogain from me;
For am all she has TO love
My fn,ier's voice no more is heard

And hang them whore the setting sun
Shines red upon tho cottage wall.

That in the thckest of the fight

The sun had kissed the mountain tips
One struggle more his bosom stirred
And with her namo upon his lips,
He fell asleep at Gettysburg.
