LORD Brougham was fond of telling the
following story. A Bishop at one of his
country visitations, complained that the
church was badly kept, and in bad re-
palr, pointing out that the rain evidently
came through the roof, and adding, with
some warmth, an expression which he
was Mortified in finding in the local paper
next day reported thus: Il shall never
visit this Id old church again till it is
IN better order" The Bishops secre-
tary thereupon wrote suggesting that
what his lordShis said was, that he would
not visit this damp old church again"
But the editor in a foot note said thar.
while giving the explanation he had ey.
cry confidence, In the accuracy of his re-
porter.

MORE TAMMANY SwINDLEs.-Anoth-
err lot of bogus county accounts by the
Tammany officials Of New York has been
published. Among the bills are $1l7,-
400 for rents and repairs for the armor-
les aud drill rooms for the quarter end
ing May 8, 1871; $225, 81 for the coun-
ty court house, and $l42, 99l to the New
York Printing Company from March 81
to June 80. The bond accounts show the
country has now $23,436, $50 to pay.
The Tribune has exposed the system of
frauds in the sheriff's Office, by which
deputies, assistants and other associate d
politicians made enormous sums out of
persons arrested, charging them exorbig
tant fees for trifiling servicef, leyyin-
blackmail on others and extorting money
in every possible manner. Instances are
detailed where $50 was demanded and
received by a deputy to accompany a
prisoner on the way to Jail, and $40 for
executing the judges order of discharge,
and number of other similar cases is
cited.

LurE.s BETTER MOMENTS.

Life has Its moments
OF beauty and bloom;
But they hang like sweet roses
On the edge Of the tomb.
blessings they bring us,
As lovely as brief,
They meet us when happy,
And leave us in grief.
Hues Of the morning,
Tinging the sky,
Come on the sunbeams,
And of with them ny.
Shadows Of evening
Hang soft on the shore;
Darkness cnwraps them,
We see them no more.
So life's better moments,
In brilliance appear,
Dawning in beauty,
Our journey to cheer.
Round us they finger,
Like shadows Of even;
Would that we like them,
Night melt into Heaven.

The local paper is an absolute

All the city papers cannot supply

The paper gives the country and

cannot be gained by any other

the paper is so mueh-loeal history,
and the rise, growth and develop
ment of the town and county can
be measured and recorded only bv
the local newspapers that con

to the Bench. A certain Doctor
R, noted for his exorbitant
charges, had been called to attend

refused to pay unless large deduc-
tions were made. The Doctor in
sisted upon receiving the whole,
and Immediately brought suit
The case came up before Judge
L., who during its progress asked
to see the account. When it was
handed up it was found to consist
of a single charge: "Nedical at
tendance-so much" The Judge
required the Doctor, who was
present, to specify the items. He
refused tocomply, End the case was
thrown out of court. ..s......
When the court had adjourned,
the Doctor TINS accosted the
Judge: That was an honest &C

Il know nothing about it," said
the Judge, in his sharp, decisive
voice nothing about it, sir"

Il knew that, sir. retorted
the Judge; Il know that. But
