on trial for every imaginable offense. There
is scarcely day passes that lawyers do not
disgrace themselves and their profession by
disgraceful specimens of blackguardism that
ere at once insults to the dignity of the Court
and to the respectable people who are obliged
to attend as jurymen and witnesses The
bullying of witnesses is a matter OF daily
occurrence and the outrageous insults OF
counsel, that if perpetrated anywhere but IN
the courtroom would subject the offender to
a severe thrashing, are not only unre6uked
by the Judges, but are directly encouraged by
their silent acquiescence.
We had a specimen of this sort of thing
few weeks ago, at the trial of the would-be
as sassins of Revenue Officer Brooks, and the
offending counsel in the case had an oppor-
tunity to find out what public sentiment was
about such conduct. AS a general rule, how
ever, such exhibitions of blackguardism are
passed over by the reporters, and, being kept
out of the papers, the decent men and women
of Philadelphia have no idea what bear
garden the Quarter Sessions Courtroom is,
unless they are unfortunate enough to be
called upon the witness stand.
Yesterday there was another example of the
same kind at the trial of a whisky dealer on
the charge of cheating and defrauding. One
of the witnesses talked too fast for the
lawyers, and Mr.. d. w. Sellers, the
counsel for the accused, interrupted him
in this elegant and eminently gentlemanly
manner -"Haviland, stop! D-n it, why
don't you stop"
Judge Paxson, who was on the bench, had
nothing to say in condemnation of this; and,
as an appropriate supplement to this elegant
behavior on the part of the counsel, we are
informed that when the jury retired the
prisoner quietly walked out of the courtroom
and has not been heard of since.
This is certainly pretty state of affairs,
and it seems indeed, as has frequently been
claimed, that the thieves, scoundrels, and
rascals generally have completely the upper
hand in this court. 1t is difficult to perceive
how the criminal could have escaped in this
instance without the collusion of the officers
of the court, and the whole trial is anything
but favorable commentary on Judge Pax
sons fitness for the position to which he has
just been appointed.

Last Monday a cOloreG man discovered buzzards
hovering around bridge about one and a half
ware In hunting for the cause he found to his
horror, the horribly y-mangled body OF an infant
wrapped in a red "nubia," or ''cloud," The birds
had been feeding on it. No clue to the probable in
fantc.de has been obtained.
Plague.
An Old mortgage for the sum of Sl00, given fifty
years ago. on q tract of one hundred and dfty-six
acres OF land OF the Wisnerburgh patent west of the
up to plague the present holders of the property of
whom there are probably over two hundred. The
mortgage is held by the loan commissioners for the
State, and the interest has been paid regularly until
recently when it ceased. Somebody will have to
pay the Si00, or the whole property, now worth q
vast sum, will be sold under the hammer.
A Rash Promise.
The Portland Argus tells the following story of a
young lady who is a pupil at one of the schools in
that city, who has already, it seems, beaten her
father at mathematics
She modesty proposed that If her father would
give her only one cent one day, and double the
amount on each successive day for just one month,
cent OF money as long as she lived Paterfamilias,
not stopping TO the figures in his head and
not supposng 1t would amount to large sum, was
glad to accept the offer at once, thinking it also
favorable opportunity to include possible marriage
dowry in the future AT the twenty-ffth day he
became greatly alarmed lest If he complied with his
own acceptance he might be obliged to be declared
q bankrupt on his own petition"
But at the thirtieth day the young girl demanded
only the pretty sum of s5,SGs, 09l2. The astOnshed
merchant was only too happy to cancel the claim by
advancing handsome cash payment for his folly in
allowing himself to give bOnd-or his WORD ne con-
sdered as good as mis- bond-without noticing the
to return to the old custom of advancing smaller
sums daily until otherwise ordered.
Our arithmetical reporter has been Figuring on to
it,, and says that if the old gentleman had fulfilled
his promise, his gushing daughter would have had
upon the receipt Of the thirteth payment, the snug
little sum of 310,4S66l743

PILES OF GOLD.
Counting the "Yellow Boys"

Tho transfer Of the Sub-Trcasury ut New
York from General Bntterfloll TO Senator Fol
gor hns necessltated the counting OF tho gold
IN the vaults The reporters thus got glimpse
ut the government strong-box and tho piles OF
gold therein, and describe them as follows:
The vaults of the Sub-Treas,lry are two In
number, and situated on the main floor Of the
building. Tho sides and roof OF each nre eight
feet OF granite masonry and two feet of iron
laid in loose. The floor is thirty feet of ma
B0nry Rnd two feet Of iron plates. Between
also with layer of muskot bas. Each vault
is closed by four Iron doors weighing two tons
to each other. The three inner doors are
locked without key, while the locks OH the
outer ones are operated by means OF an instrll-
mcnt abont an inch long by half an inch wide,
vault Is about twelve feet square. On the sides
OF each apartment nrc bullt one hundred and
twenty chests of iron, each OF tho capacity Of
quarter ot million In gold coin. Each chest
when null Is closed by an irUn door, and fas-
tened with lock which Is sealed SO that tho
door cannot be tamporcd With without break
Ing the seal.
At present there are about s75, ,oOO, 900 in
gold coin and about s%0, 900 In silver contained
In about $50 of tho 240 chests. The "lOosc
cash" Is In boxes, placed by the respective
tellers In tho vaults each night after tho close
Of the days business.
each picco of coin IS counted separately in
these examinations, but q little reflection will
convince them that this IL an error. Ono mnn
could scarcely count 100000 on an average In
day, and to examine ut this rate would con-
snme too much time, nor would 1t
be necessary. Each denomination of gold
Is packed separately, nnd tho bng Ia
bellcd with tag, showing the charac-
ter or the coin and the amount. In the pro-
cess OF counting one of tho sealed chests Will
ne opened, the contents carried on trucks into
the gold-rOOm, ald then ono bag will be
counted, and the remainder of the same de-
nomination weighed against IL In accurately

deficient bag will he counted, and thus any
error will be guarded against Should moth
