Judge r. relates the following incident
as occurring in the course Of his practice:
He was trying petty case, in which
one OF the party was not able to pay the
counsel fees, and undertook to plead his
own cause; bat he found, in the course Of
the trial, that the keen and sdroit, altor-
ney who managed the case for the other
party was too much for him in legal
strategy, evidently making the worse ap-
pear the better cause. The poor man,
Mr.. A., was 10 state Of mind bordering
upon desperation, when the opposing
counsel closed his plea, and the case was
sboutto be submitted to the justice for de-
cision. a.e r
"May II please your HONOR" said the
man, "may pray?" .rir,i rsoo5di'
The Judge was taken somewhat by sur
prise, and could only say that he had no
objection. Whereupon Mr.. A. went down
upon his knees, and make fervent pray
er, in which he laid the merits of the case
before the Lord in very clear and me-
thodical statement of all the particulars,
pleading that right and justice might pre-.

Arguments which he could not present
in logical array to the understanding Of
men, he had no difficulty in addressing to
the Lord, being evidently better versed in
praying than pettifogging. a.e.
When he arc Sc from his knees, Esquire
W., the opposing counsel, very much ex-
asperated by the turn the case had taken,
said: A., ss3 .4fiw =.

During the battle Of Bull Run, Me-
Clelan's movement to Richmond, Pope's
retreat to Washington, the campaigns Of
| Au,ietsm, fredericksburg, Cbaneellors-
Vile, Gettysburg. and Mine Run, with
the various marches aud countermarches
between the Rapidan aud Washington,
not counting operations In the Valley nor

gregate Of lt4,lis' hors dm CONDUIT OF
these, 80, 09G we're lost un der Mcclellan,
the most cautious and the most .unfortu-
nate commander the army ever had. :.
II must be said Of these losses, that
while they resulted Ia holding the rebel
army in check, yet by having correspond
ingly lowered the, efficiency OF the army,
they contributed indirectly, but largely,
TO the excess Of loss incurred during the
final campaign. Notwithstanding this
fact, and the essential change in the ma
ture of the fighting due to the persistency
with which the rebel General covered his
men by intrenchments before giving bait
tie, the aggregate loss Of the forces acting
under Grants immediate command (not
counting operations in the Shenandoah
Valey--they being fairly Offset by those
of Banks, Shields, Milroy, Kelly, and
others,) during the overland campaign,
from the Rapidan to Petersburg, with the
siege Of Petersburg and all the battles in
cident thereto. up to the final surrender
of Lee at Appomattox Court House, was
l3,06l killed, 66.452 wounded, 26,988
missing aggregate, l06,50l. sS s4iS s
From this it is evident that the Army
of the Potomac and the Army of the
james lost nearly 10000 fewer men after
Grant took command than they lost before
that time. Tie contrast between the cap
lures made aud advantages gained in the
two periods is still more striking, but
needs no illustration. 4.

How Women FAN as Worker..

From the New York Sun. ft s.. ~.
That clever aud Kindly Old Bachelor
who discusses social question with such
genial wisdom in the pages OF iisrpers
Bazaar, tells the following story TO illus
tratc the reason why women do not usual
ly prosper as we'll as men in some of the
professions for which they would seem TO
be quite as we'll adapted:
1t seemed TO me that women might es-
pecially succeed as wood engravers, 50 l
went TO one of the most experienced and
successful engrayers in the city and con-
suited with him,
Don't you see the difficulty" be ask
cd, with great kindness aud interest.
"No!' said |; 'you must instruct me-"
"Well" answered he, II have employed
women hete very often, and / wish l could
feel more encouraged, but the truth is.
that whena young man comes 70 me aud
begins his work. ne feels thatit is his life's
business, how to cut his future out Of the
little blocks before him. Wife, family,
home, happiness, are all to be carved by
his hand, and he settles steadily and ear.
nestly TO his labor, determined to master
il, aud with every Indictment spurring
him on. lie can not marry until he
knows his trade. 1t is exactly the other
way with the girl. She may bo as poor
as the youth, and as wholly dependent
upon her labor for her living But she
feels that she will probably be married
by-and by; and then she must give up
wood engraving So she gees es listlsss-
ly, she has no ambition 10 excel; she dues
not feel that her happiness depends upon
II. She will marry, aud then her hus-
bands wages will support her. She may
not say so,' said the engrsver, but she
thinks so and il spoils her work. s.s.
The same is true with regard to many
employments in which women have been
ensaced We know that ss clerks at
Washington they arc far less useful than
men. Their habits Of work are much less
accurate. and they do not give their minds
to their duties with the same conscisnii-
ousncss and fidelity. The reason is the
sa me as that given by our ola bsehelor.
They do not feel that these duties are the
business of their life, aud that their whole
success or failure depends upon the man
uer in which they are performed. What
every they do, love, matrimony, and tho
care Of house of their own, are always
at the bottom Of their thoughts. .s

The best, most instantan eous, 1e and
most accessible remedy in the world is to
thrust the injured part in cold water,
send for a physician, and while he is com
ing, cover the part an inch or more deep
with com mon -four The water gives To-.
stanteous relief by excluding the oxygen
OF the air; the -four does the same thing,
but is preferable, because il can be kept
more continuously applied with less in-
