struggled upward, fixed his eye upon some
one human face, and knew by its smile
when Ie had won success. How many
have reached heights they never would have
attained, had Il not been for little white
hands, which tho world never saw, that

of difficulty seemed to bar their upward

Fiyc.an,l.twcniy ycars ago Luke p. Po
land, d. a. Snallcy, and Joshua Sawyer
led the bar of Lamoille County Vermont.
Sawyer had brought an action for nssarl I
and battery, and had drawn a somewhat
prolix declaration, 20 that tho case appear
ed fully as badly on paper Us the witness
for the plaintiff detailed il upon the stand.
In his argument Poland told the jury that
his brother Sawyer's declaration reminded
him OF an incident In his own practice:
"Some yecrs since said MIR. Poland, ~

vor Of my old friend Asa Barnard, ugainst
the gallant Mnjs Russell ID. Hyde, who
had inflicted some unjust corporal punish.
ment upon Barnard for the trivial offence
of telling him he was great liar. Bar
nard asserted, and pretty conclusively prov.
ed, that the Major had struck him blow
on the head with his heavy cane. Bar.
nard, finding my astute brother Sawyer no.
mined for the Major, was obliged to come
to me to obtain redress for this great irrong
and injury. ...

case with great enthusiasm. framed a
declaration in len counts, setting forth the
beating, bruising, wounding, and evil en-
treating, in all tho various forms, and with
all the verbiagc and astrological nonsense
could command: and In the last connt did
not forget to rccite that Barnard's ife irds
greatly d,spdired of. read the declaration
in voice full of sympathy almost as af.
fectingly ns my brother Sawyer read this to
you, gentlemen; and upon looking at my

As the general impression prevailed, in
the cnse Oh trial, that the evidence did not
quite sustain Sawyer's dc.laration, the Jury,
the court, and all present were convulscd
with laughter. aud thought that Sawyer,
though reputed to be n grent wit, could not
get the laugh oil for this time.
Sawyer had yearly concluded his reply,
which WIS somewhat lengthy and quite for.
chile, without any nlllision to Poland's wit
ticism, and those who had listened with
great Interest for his heretofore nevcr.iail-
ing repartee were in despair. Suddenly,
as Il Polnnd's jeu d'esprt had just occurred
to him, he said: -.
"Gentlernen, you all appeared to be very
much delighted when the learned counsel

FROZEN TO DEATH.-We heard yesterday
that a man was frozen TO death in the slough
near Van Sickle's sometime last week. The
deceased had been at work for Van Sickle
and on the day before his dead body was
found, he started to cross the slough, having
in his possession at the time, bottle Of
whisky. When discovered dead he was sit
ting on the ground with his back against a
bush and his bottle empty. He was proba-
bly, stupehed by the liquor and, falling asleep,
froze to death before waking. We did not
learn his name.
