Don't be EXtraYAgant.

If the poorhouse has terrors
for you, never buy what you
don't need. Before you pay
three cents for that jews harp,
my boy, ascertain whether you
can not make just as pleasant
a noise by whistling, for which
nature furnished the machin-
cry. And before you pay fit
teen dollars Tor a figured vest,
young man, find out whether
your lady love would not be
just as glad to see you in n
plain one, that costs half the
money. If she would not, let
her crack her own walnuts, and
buy her own clothes. When
you see 2 man paying five dol
lars for a Frenchilied toy, that
a phiiosophic Yankee baby
will pull to bits in five min
utes, the chances are five ia
one that he will be poor enough
to realize how many cents
there are in a dollar, and if he
don't he's pretty sure to be-
queath that privilege to his
widow. When a man asks you
to buy that for which you have
no use, no matter how cheal
it is, don't say yes, until your
are sure that some one else
wants it at an advance. Mon
ey burns a hole in some folks
pockets and makes such a pes
Ky hole that everything thai
is put in, drops through pas
finding. 'o. II

used abusive language toward
him, and threatened to whip
McCurdJ for charging him with
the theft. McCurdy went im~
mediately to Squire Smith,
and stated his case. The Squire
listened until his story was
told, and then dispatched his
constable with strict orders to
bring the thief and collar forth
with before him. The consta-
ble quickly returned bringing
with him, in the one hand the
collar, while with the other he
grasped the accused. The
Squire Immediately arraigned
the accused in his court which
was held in the open air, on
the bank of the Scioto. 1t was
then asked Of the accuser, how
he could prove the collar to be
his9 McMurdy replied, "lfthe
collar is mine, Mr.. Spear who
is presentj can testify" Mr.
Spear was then called to tes

he came forward and said,
"that ii it was McMurdy's
collar he himself had writ
ten McMurdy's name on the
inner side of the collar" The
Squire turned up the ear
Of the collar, and found accord
ingly McMurdy's name written
there. mo better proof could
be given," said the Squire, and
ordered the accused to be i'm

receive five laShes well laid GA,
which was accordingly done.

Justice i'll Ross County Seventy
Years Ago.

From McDonald's sketches,
we extract an account Of the
manner in which justice was
executed in Ross county sew
enty years ago.
"Early, however in The year
1877, the governor Cf the north
western territory appointed
Thomas WorthiDgton, Hugh
Cochran, and Samuel Smith, as
Justices of the Peace for the
settlement at Chillicothe. The
last mentioned justice trans.
acted the principal part of-the
judicial business. His prompt
and decisive manner OF doing
business rendered him very
popular. His docket could be
understood only by himself
Scarcely was a warrant issued
by him as he preferred always
10 send his constable to the ac-
cused to bring him forward to
have prompt justice executed.
No law book was of any au-
lhorlfy with him. He always
Justified his own proceedings
byssaying, Shat all laws were
intended Tor he purpose of en-
forcing justice, and that he
himself knew what was right
and what was wrong, as well
as those who made the laws,
=
and that tberefore,he stood in
need of no laws to govern his
actions.' In civil and criminal
cases, he was always prompt
in his decision, and sometimes
amusing in his mode of execut
ing Justice, as will be seen
from the following case, which
was brought under his cogni-
zance. A man by the name
of Adam McMurdy, cultivated
some ground in the station
