George Vailwas found drunk on the
street near Pollock's mill between five
and six o clock Tuesday evening. When
called before the Judge he said he was
PRINTER: that he had thrown up his
case" though this does not mean that
he was sick by any means-and was out
| Tor a little recreation. The Judge held
that printer should never get out Of
'"sorts" The Judge was satisfied, in
language of our friend Add WEIGH, that
printer is man of many parts-but
has "rule" to guide" him in all his
works. A "planer" form" is seldom
met with as he "chases" Dame For
tune, though he "sticks" to titles
with more tenacity than a lawyer to his
"briefs" and eases" while his make
up" borders" many times on the RI
diculous, and he "Hourishes IN "cir-
cles" where monks" and "friars," both
Eat" and lean" never could conjure
up a shell to disturb him. Ask him
10 ride, and he takes" the lines OF
the leaders" without a puff" giving
fair notice that he is ready for a
brush" with any who may desire to
pres" him. As an officer he cuts
quite figure" with his core" % and
shows his "doublet" with pride, as he
"heads" or counts his columns by
thousands" and stands" TO strike
for his "colors," as proof
that il is matte" Of honor
with him to copy" none who
have gone before. Although versed
in imposition" and posted on the use
Of the "galleys," he "offsets" any foul
spots there may be in his compost
ton" by the clean impression" he
makes upon society and though forced
to use "lye" sometimes, few can
drum up charge against him OF be-
ing lower case than many who are
ranked among the upper" He caps
his work as the best type" Of a man
by his regard for his chapel, TO which
the devil is always invited; and when
the sponge is thrown up, and his
mould becomes "pi," his dead form"
is honored by an imposing stone" and
he who regarded cabinets" as mere
tools, leaves his "bank," "quoins, and
"furniture" behind for the editor whose
quotations" are the most fitting, and
the page" of his life reaches its "finis,
and as his name falls from the rolls a
blank" is left in society. Because OF
all this Vail was fined 81 and costs. His
bank being supplied with quoin he paid
the bill.
The next subject was John Ready
who has already been many times be-
fore this court for drunkenness. John
