THERE IS. or was recently, living in Pc

OF Van Meter. He was once called as a
BY a rather aged official, Judge Perham.
The lawyers on each side, by questioning
and cross.questioning, had pumped the me-
gro pretty dry, and got him into state Of
extreme perplexity. The judge, in kind
ness, thought he would interfere, and put
some plain questions for Van Meters re-
lief. The negro, not approaching the mo-
tive, and thinking the game Of cross-ques-
tioning was still to continue, broke out
with a beseeching look to the bench,
Don't you NEEDLE nor make in this bust
ness, old grandsir; I've got as much as
can do to tend to these men down here"
The judge subsidized, and the negro kept
dark as to any further answers.

DEATH OF NOTORIOUS BRlGAND.-Guic-
che, the brigand OF ArezZo, Italy. was shot
recently By the Kings carbipeers. He was,
it is said. the terror but also the boast Of
the neighborhood; and, no less from adj
miration than from fear, he was always
sure, so long as be could elude the blood
hounds Of the law, Of supper and a
sweetheart. Justice was over and over
again suspended by the dread of his
anger; and tempting posts, usually SO
coveted in Italy, were refused by one
official after another in Difference to his
mandates. The mode Of his capture was
in keeping with the remainder of his event
full history. Three of his pursuers took
refuge one evening with a poor and aged
couple, and their suspicious were at once
aroused by seeing before them the promise
of more sumptuous repaSt than was war
ranted by The peasants condition. The
supper was preparing for Guicche, and The
fact was eXtorted from the temporizing
pair. The carbineers lay in wait for the
solitary bravo, who soon came along sing
ing r1spetto, or love song, and they dis
patched him before he had time to do more
than bite of one Of their fingers.

The New HAMPSHIRE LEGIsLATURE.-One
of the most curious political complications
this country has ever known is that exist
Ing ut the present in New Hampshire.
The death of a Senator, and the peculiar
provisions of the Constitution, Involve the
election in doubt, even when it shall 60
into the Legislature. All now depends on
the action OF two or three members OF the
House of Representatives, who were
clai,ned as Republicans. Their votes Will
elect the Senator from the district which
tailed to return one on the popular vote,
and who, If Republican, will tie the SEN
ate. They viii also elect the fifth councillor,
who failed of popular election, and who
will hold the balance Of power, and they
will decide the choice for Governor.
