WHY TRUTH GOES NAKED.

List to tale well worth the ear
OF all who wit and sense admirei
Invented-it is very clear
Some oRes prior To Mathew Prior.
Falsehood and Truth, upon time
One day in Junc's delicious weather,
CTwas in q distant age and chme)
Like sisters, took walk together.
On, on their merry way they took,
Through fragrant wood and verdant meadow,
To where beech beside brook a
Invited rest beneath its shadow. sM
There, sitting in the pleasant shade, W
Upon the margins grassy mating,
"a velvet cushion ready made),
The young companions fell to chatting.
Now, while in voluble discourse,
On this and that their tongues were running,
As habit bid each speak-perforce-
The one is frank; the other cunning.
Falsehood, at length, impatient grown
With scandals of her own creation,
Said, "Since we two are quite alone,
And nicely screened from observation,
Suppose in this delightful rill, .r..,.I .
While all around is so propitous,
We take a bath Y'-Said Truth, = i will
A bath, l. sure, will be delicious!
At this her robes she cast aside, ZtsH
And in the stream that ran before her 81 -
She plunged-lke Oceans happy BRIDE
As naked as her mother bore her
Falsehood at leisure now undressed,
Put of the robes her limbs that hamper,
And having donned Truths snowy vest, .
tlRan off as fast as she could scamper. =
Since then the subtle maid in sooth,
Expert in lies and shrewd evasions,
Has borne the honest name of Truth,
And wears her clothes on all occasions.
While Truth, disdaining to appear
In Falsehood's petticoat and bodice,
Still braves all eyes from year to year,
AS naked as a marble goddess

Cases Submitted 10 Him not 10 be Decided
l-r..,. al for Several Months.
The following from the Detroit Post of a
recent date, is of interest to many Tennes-
seeans. N..# n"
Judge Emmons returned home some
weeks since seriously i'll of bronchial diff
fculty, i'm sympathy with which his lungs
seemed to be somewhat affected, but in the
belief that he could devote n part of each
day to the determination of the numerous
cases submitted upon his circuit, and still
reap the benefit of the medical treatment
he was undergoing. A renewed attack,
however, is the result of overwork, and
his physicians demand total abstinence
from the causes which, beyond doubt, pro-
duced the disease. In over-anxiety to dis
pose of the matters before him he neglected
their advice, and the result is SO serious
that nothing but prompt measures will
prevent permanently injurious consequent
ces. He leaves In d day or two, with his
family, for Colorado, the climate of which
has signaily benefited many citizens sim
ilarIy afflicted. When Judge Emmons
returns, 10 his labors he must either at
tempt less, or some provision be made for
clerical assistance The usage in many
districts in his circuit, of arguing causes
orally, without written briefs, and the
trial of the causes with no report of the
testimony beyond the minutes of the
Judge, has caused him an amount of labor
that no man, however strong, can contin-
uously perform. We believe no Office in
the nation, with duties so extensive and
important, iswithout the aid of clerks for
the performance of mere manual labor.
Should Judge Emmons not be able with
In a few months to resume work he will
cause counsel interested in the cases to be
notified and have measures taken for their
determination by other judges.

which the many very difficult questions
were answered spoke well for the manage

upon all concerned.
At noon an intermission was given, du-

PREFERENCE There has been a lively discussion in the legislature over the '.'Tru. man Smith Temperance bill, making liquor sellers liable for damages done by men Sin their liquor" Ssme features of the bill were extrelAe such las the provision that being intoxicated twice in year consti- tutes common drunkard, that the defend ant should not Hecover cost if successful, and that.cases should be tried by the court and not by jury. The leader in the House was MT. Merton of Goshen, who argued ably in behalf of the bill. He accepted amendments striking out the sections re- garding common drunkards and costs. The Democrats, led by Messrs. Eaton of Hart. ford, and Taylor of New Milford, seem to have opposed the bill in body. Gen. Pratt also opposed the bill, taking the ground that cider and beer drinking should net be prohibited. A motion to indefinite ly postpone was lost, but 9 subsequent mo- tion of Gen.
