In those good old times when DicF y
Kicker was Recorder of New York, a
man by the name of Wilson was TAX
en- up on the charge of stealing spoons.
He had no council to defend him, but
Mr.. Graham, getting an opportunity
to have word with him in private,
agreed to get the fellow acquitted for
ten dollars. The lawyer told him not
to say a word but spoons to all inqui-
ries put to him. Wilson was arraigned.
"Have you any counsel ?'' the Re-
corder now asked.
spoons" said Wilson.
"Have you any counsel? ?" the Re-
corder demanded, still louder.
spoons! !" replied Wilson.
Mr.. Graham interposed:
"Your honor perceives that this
man is fool, and by no means is he
in a fit state of mind to be tried.
The clerk put the usual question,
"gnilty or not guilty?" to which the
prisoner steadily answered, Spoons. "
The Recorder asked what the man
was up for, and finding that it was for
stealing a few spoons, and thinking the
fellow was only half witted, told him
to go. Graham followed him out and
demanded the ten dollar fee.
"Spoons !" said Wilson, and to all
the lawyers demands he answered on
ly Spoons"

TWO CLEVER SAILORS.

In small, old town built on the
seashore, there used to live two sailors
named Jack and Joe. They were
great friends, and had one boat be-
tween them, and went out fishing to-
gether.
They were both strong, and brave,
and sunburnt. They both liked rum,
and both wore loose trousers. And so
they never could make out which was
the most clever.
II know the best way to cook mack
erel, and herring, and sole," said Jack.
$50 do L. And | know the best way
to sell them,' said Joe.
$50 do l." answered Jack, "and /
know the best way to catch thepa."
$50 do T." answered Joe. "But
what is the use of all this, when we
have no ropes for our nets ?'
"If we had time we could make
some," said Jack.
"If we had money we could buy
somep said Joe.
''If we knew where we could bor-
row some," said Jack.
"If we knew where we could steal
some, !" said ice.
Just then the bells of the church on
the hill began tolling for evening pray
erS,
"They ring those bells with ropes"
said Jack.
Sand the ropes are very good" said
Joe.
Jack began to smile. Joe began to
laugh.
"Shall we go to church, mate to-
night" asked Jack.
land shall we stay there till the
last ?' asked Joe.
Up the hill went the two sailors.
They stopped in the church till the
prayers were all over and everybody
had gone home.
"Now is our time," said Jack.
"It is our turn now," said Joe.
OFF they went to the tower where the
bells were hung. Here they found two
long, strong, thick ropes.
zone for me-" cried Jack.
"And one for me-" cried Joe.
Up the ropes climbed the two clever
sailors, like couple of monkeys.
''I am up to the top" said Jack.
'And so am t." said Joe.
Jack pulled out knife from his
pocket. So did Joe.
Dick slick went Jacks knife. He
cut through the rope over his head,
and down he fell, and broke his pate
on the stones at the bottom.
"Oh, crickee," groaned Jack, at the
bottom; who could have thought
that"
"What stupidhead you are,' cried
Joe at the top. "You should have
done as / do"
With these words he cut the rope
close under his feet. Down it fell, and
left him hanging by his two hands at
the top.
sob, crickee!" cried Joe, at the top;
who could have thought that ~
"What a stupidhead you are,"
groaned Jack. "You will have to hang
there until morning."
And so he did, and made his arms
% stiff that he could not move them
for a week.
1t was a sad night for the two clever
sailors. They cried, and groanad, and
prayed, and said badwords until m0rr-
ing.
Then Jack was taken off to tie hos
pital, and Joe taken off to prison.

The situation in Europe remains
very much tine same as it did last
week. The landing of Garibaldi in
France produced quite sensation
1t is understood that he will be APP
pointed 10 the command of the volun
teer forces of France. The probable
death of Won Moltke, will have much
influence on the future operations of
the German forces in France. He
was unquestionably the greatest mill
tary genius in Germany, and the au-
thor of the strategy that has been so
successful in the overthrow of Napo-
leon. The city of Paris, is now sur
rounded by the army of King William
and we may expect to hear of lively
work in a few days. The difficulty of
arriving at terms of P~acification is in
creased by the fact that the King re-
fuses to treat with the Republic. 1t
is also stated that he does not intend
to restore the Bonaparts to power in
France. The Orleans family seem to
be the favorites.

The election in this Comfy passed
off quietly on Tuesday. The Repub
lican leaders put in circulation most
scandulous and slanderous stories eon
corning some of our candidates with
a view of securing their defeat. Sher-
iff Porter, seemed to be the mark, at
which their shafts were hurled. No
man on the ticket had a better char.
actor, and a more conscientious re-
gard for the proprieties of life. His
treatment was shameful and disgrace,
fultin the extreme, and should dis,
gust the sensible portion of the Re
publican party. He was reelected
notwithstanding these calumnies by a
very handsome majority. The BAL
ance eff the ticket, with the exception
of MI. Pifer Candidate for Surveyor
has al average majority Of about
200. MI. Pifer, is a young man of
integrity and honor, and should have
been elected without a"why or where
fore. Under the circumstances, his
treatment has been most singular
Mr.. Ryall,J the Republican candi-
dite, was former Surveyor, and pos
sesscd a good deal OF popularity
among the farmers, which accounts
fer his success.
We congratulate our candidates on
their success, Notwithstanding they
were pursued in q %malignanl manner
by the opposition and trust they will
acquit themselves in Office, with integ-
rity and honor.
We will give the majority next
week.
We have not heard sufficient in re-
gard to the State to form a correct
idea as to the result. We are in
clined, however, to think the State
has gone Democratic.
