GEORGE BUTLER, the jolliest, most amia-
BILE of all the New York theatrical critics,
the best company of all our good fellows,
and the hardest man to pick quarrel with
that we know of, seems to be thrown by
some perverse late into rows at every
turn. Having conquered all England, he
now turns up in the only foreign land re-
naming unconqnered Jersey-and, as usu-
nj, comes out triumphant. 1t appears that

| CITY TO Newark n policeman (not IN uni.
form named j. $. Wilson, seated himself
behind Butler and a lady, who was in the
latter's company. The officer leaned his
head on the back of the seat occupied by the
lady nnd proceeded to stare her out OF coun-
tenance. Butler noticing this, requested
| Wilson 10 raise his head. Wilson said he
guessed not. Butler said he guessed yes.
There was n difference of opinion that
seemed impossible of reconciliation. Butler
settled it by splitting the difference. "Since
the offender would not raise his head him
self saws the innocent Butler to the Judge,
81 raised il for him" Judging from the
condition of the mans face and eyes the
dirnitary decided that there was no doubt
whatever that he had been "raised" with a
vengeance. The complaint of the raised
header was dismissed, and Butler marched
away in triumph-the first New Yorker who

1t happened that my old friend Mr.. Lee,

ton for assault brought against her by anoih-
er old woman
The plaintiff had been reposing in an arm
chair, when some words arising between her
and my client, the latter took hold of the
legs of the chair, and In TACT threw the
plaintiff head and heels over the top of the
chair. This sort of assault of course admit
ted of easy proof, and maid servant of the
nlaintiff's proved the case. | then offered
In court that chair should be brought in,
and that nv old female client should place
herself in it, and that the lady (the PLAINTIFF
should overset the chair and my old woman,
as size had been upset herself.
"Upon the plaintiffs attorney refusing this
compromise, the witness (the maid servan)
said that her mistress (the plaintilf) was al
WAYS willing to make up the matter, but that
her attorney would never allow her to do so
and that her mistress thought she must do as
her attorney lid her do, and had no will oi
her own. $50 then, observed to the jury,
knowing that her attorneys name was Hob
son, this good lady has bad nothing for il
but Hobson's choice. And, pray, then, gen

Machine of the kind in tie world, so it has

Peters Musical MOnthlY-The March
number of Peters Musical Monthly is at
hand, and contains some t~wenty-fOur pages
Of choice new music, giving selections from
the most popular writers, and variety enough
to suit the most fa~stideous. We notice, first,
a beautiful little ballad, with chorus, by J. S.
Cox, entitled LEFT all Alone;" then follows
a sacred song by George Leah, entitled ''The
Lord will Provide > "Coraline," by the Ma
tion's Song-Writer, WiIS S. Hays, comes next.
This is followed by a sprightly comic song by
T. Brigham Bishop, entitled "The Young
Widow and, among other things, she says,
"Shed doesn't want a man who stops out all night,
Or one that drinks brandy, and comes home quite
tight"
There are also three instrumental pieces,
namely: Pretty as a Pink" Barcarole, by
Mack; "Fleur dethe Galop," by D~ressler, and
the famous "Greeian Bend March," by Pre-
vot. In addition TO the above, Mr.. Peters
gives fifteen pages Of choice family reading,
and all for the moderate sum of 80 cents, or
50 per year-over 50 worth of new music ap-
pearing in each number Those of our must
al friends who do not subscribe are certainly
losing a rich treat, as $40 worth of music can
not be bought every day for such a small sum
