JUDICIAL CRITIcIsM.-A queer scene is
related as having once taken place in the
Court of Chancery between Lord Campbell
and an eminent lawyer-a Queens counsel.
In an action brought to recover for damages
done to q carriage, the learned counsel
repeatedly called the vehicle in question
a brougham, w%hereupon Lord Campbell,
with considerable pomposity, observed !:
"BrOom is the more usual pronunciation;
a carriage of the kind you mean is gene
rally and not incorrectly called O broom.
That pronunciation is open to no grave
objection, and it has the advantage of the
time consumed by uttering an extra sylla-
blc." Half an hour later in the same trial,
Lord Campbell, abiding to a similar action
given, said Sin that case, the carriage
which had sustained injury was an onui-
IuS-" "Pardon me, my lord" inter
rupted the Queens counsel with such
promptitude that his lordship was startled
into silence, Ga carriage of the kind to
which you draw attention is usually termed
a bass. That pronunciation is open to nc
grave objection, and has the great advan-
tage of saving the time consumed by ut
tering the two extra ~syllables." The
interruption was followed by a roar OF
laughter, in which Lord Campbell Joined
more heartily than any one else.

THE DOLLAR MARIA correspondent
of the New York Post writes to that paper
as follows:
alt is the contraction of two Spanish
words, Pesos fuateS,' which mean lite
rally hard money. They are made thus,
PTS, and the S commonly backs over the p
and the f. / have seen them on accounts
made before the federation of the United
States was ever thought Of. Practice max
ing the letters, throwing the S back over
the p and f, and you will readily see how
such a designated prefix will get into the
dollar mark we use. Once, when trading
in Mexico, having failed to use the term
pesos tuertes' to distinguish the kind of
money l was to receive, my Mexican
friend paid me three thousand dollars in
sixpenny pieces and shillings, and in his
accounts he did not use our dollar mark"

A Blackberry Story.

Edmund Morris, of Burlington, n. j.,
writes to IIlton's Journal Of Horticulture
"The blackberry, having latterly taken
its place among horticultural staples, is
attracting the attention of hundreds OIL
acute and pcrsevcring seekers after fresh
novelties. Its commercial value has been
satisfactorily determined. 1t fully equals
the raspberry in prOductiveness, and, as a
general rule, far outStripS the strawberry.
In this section, where the two great city
markets are within a few hours Of us, the
profit from a we'll managed acre will pay
the fee of the land annually.
A gentleman within two miles Of me, by
way of interesting his son "a young LADY in
agricultural pursuits, gave him the free
use Of an acre to cultivate as he pleased.
The shrewd boy located a half-acre on one
side of his fathers ba~rn-yard, and the
other on the opposite side. He could thus
trundle out Il dozen barrow loads of ma
nure upon his ground whenever disposed,
He planted his acre in Lawton blackbcr-
rics; cultivated them himself; and last
year his gross sales of fruit amounted to
six hundred dollars. The year preceding
his clear profit from the same acre was
four hundred and fifty dollars. l have
walked through this magnificent creation
Of Juvenile care and ShrewdneSS, an(
must confess that no engineering of m,
own in the same line has been able tt
equal it.
"The contents of the convenient barn
yard told powerfully on the canes, bu
more powerfully on the quantity ant
quality of the fruit. The fee of the land
though in the best location, was much les
valuable than the annual crop. Within
gunShot of this field arc ten acres of tn,
same berry, which last year yielded a ne
profit of four thousand two hundred dol
lars-more than the land would sell for.
"Thc father of the lad referred to wa!
engaged in mercantile business in Phila
delphia, but he never realized such profit:
as he thus saw his entcrprising Sol to be
annually securing. The example set be.

ing crops-and has been planting annually
from the increase of his own fields, until
he now has thirty acres Of Lawtons. Last
winter he cut down an apple orchard Of
large bearing trees to make room for more
briers. The profits from the latter fal
outstripped the best orchard in the coun,
try.
sit is thus manifest that the commercial,
value of the blackberry has been s~atisfac.

key, brandy, gin, sherry, Madeira, %clarct,

AN CODE" TO THE RED MEN.-A Den
yer paper publishes the following pathetic
code onto the Friendless." There is
ruth in it, if there isn't much poetry:
"Noble red men Of the plains, bouncing
on ~unguarded trains, whence you come
and where you go, Sherman's scouts would
like to know. Burning here and scalping
there, east and west and everywhere,
prowling like the tiger cat, night and day
along the Platte, stealing boldly at your
will, all along the Smoky Hill; first you
come in parties small, now in numbers that
appal, spreading death and devastation,
robbing ranches, burning stations such
persistent visitation does not claim our
admiration. Mr.. Lo, now quit your tricks,
surely you'll get in a fix; now just stop
those ugly capers, or Well send you to the
Quakers. If our boys start on the scout,
surely they will wipe you out; go, bold
red man of the West, here your stay is
short at best 60 and hunt the buffalo, we
can spare you, Mr.. Lo."
