An Amusing Court Scene.

WITNESS WHO WOULD NOT BE RADGERED,
The report of late trial in Cincinnati,
which we find in the Gazette of that CITY, con-
aims one bright passage. The case was one in
which the heirs of Mrs. Schofield-an Eng
ish lady of eccentric habits, who died in Gin
.nnati in lS53-endeavored to persuade the
court to set aside the will on several grounds.
The principal witness was a Mrs. Cheese
trough, aged seventy. She had been asked
half-a-dozen times as to the age of one of Mrs.
Schotields nephews. The report continues:
Al tell you did not know his age. His
birth register is in England, and never went
to see it.
Court-Mrs. Cheesebrough, it is perhaps
proper TO say to you that you must be patient,
and answer all the questions counsel may put
to you. s
Witness.-So co, but don't see any use
ofanswering the same questions over and ov-
er again.
Court.-Some of us may not hear all your
answers, and it is often necessary to repeat
questions.
Wtnass.-I generally speak loud enough
for anybody in this court room to hear me-
and think if the lawyers would attend to
their business they wouldn't have to ask
witness more than once.
Court.-proceed with the examination.
Q.-You say Mrs. Schofield drank great
deal ofliquor; what did she keep it ina jug
A.-No; she kept it in demUohn in bas-
ket; | never looked into the basket to see
whether it was glass or not, but think it
was; 1t held six quarts, and have carried it
hundred times for her, if a strict account
had been kept, to Mr.. Smiths liquor store to
get it filled; remember Mr.. Smith used oft
en- to say, "Drunk again, Mrs. Cheesebrough :"
and l would answer, "No; it's the same
drnnk;' but he knew was joking, and he
knew who the liquor was for.
Q.-What kind of liquor did she use?
A.-Brandy sir-the regular old cognac.
Q.-How did she drink it, pure or mixed?
.4.-She as often took it pure as any way;
whe.o she wanted to she made it into grog !;
she used to drink it out of little black tea
pot that was handler than long bottle; the
demijohn was filled every week, but did not
Gil always; she had little Englishman who
used to go tt,r her very often.
Question bv Juror-How did she attend
to her business when she had store on Fifth
street?
Al don't know exactly, but as told you
before, she was always posted in money mat
tefs.
Q.-Was she sober then?
A.-No, she was never sober. Drinking had
become a sort of second nature with her. She
was like good many lawyers that know OF,
they can't lead case without being half
drunk. Laughter. It's fact. tell you
have seen many lawyer that never under
took to try case until, as they say, he had
8two sheets in the wind and one futterin'."
Renewed laughter.

Willing to Accommodate.

A well-to-do citizen of San Francisco hap
pening few days since, to be short of serv-
ait girls, was requested by his wife to call on
a young lady who had expressed her willing
ness for a consideration, to spend portion Of
her time in the residence of some highly re-
spectacle family, references exchanged" &c
He called on the interesting female and found
Ter all his fancy painted her, and more too;
in fact, masterpiece Of the millliner's, hair
dress,er's, jewelers., painters, plasterer's and
chemists art, and as airy as redwood palace
with cloth and papered walls on Telegraph
Hill. A few minutes conversation satisfied
him that he had opened the negotiation on
wrong basis, and In fact he was the party to
be engaged, not the high-toned lady before
him, who answered no questions at sll, and
questioned him with all the nonchalance of a
practised horse buyer, cGeapening three-leg-
ged nag at government SAFE. The interview
closed as follows:
Female-sWhere do yon live?"
Citizen-"Well, almost out to the Mission
Dolores"
Female with doubtful shake of the head
-s1'hat's long way from Montgomery street
almost too far, am afraid! How many
children have you in the family?"
Citizen (nodestlyl-"We have four, ma
DAM"
Female-HFourl That's great deal too
many.
Citizen labashed and humbled, taking his
hat in his hand nervously)-"Well. madam,
do you think you could get along with one or
two chidren?"
Female-"I suppose I might, but you say
you have four"
Citizen (edging toward the door)-''Yes,
madam, L did say four, but rather than give
you offence, and risk failure of the negotia-
ton, l did not know but my wife might be
prevailed on 10 drO,rn one or tauo of then!'
With a look of insulted dignity the female
rose and waved her hand, as much as to say,
ssYou won't do! Get from my sight" and
the citizen went out of her presence, feeling,
as he avows, at least thousand per cent.

opinion than he had ever felt or had cause to
