TO lay down line between the people and the prs
oner, not only in respect 10 this question: put 70
every other question that may arise ON the trlhls
with which everybody must he content, because u
must be IN accordance with law. When THIS care
was called on, some days ago, informed counsel
Tor the prisoner that unless some overwhelming
reason should be assigned, the case would DC tried
to-day percmptorny. Some OF the reasons 0nered
BY the able counsel declining proceed IN the case
DO not weigh win me at all. am not prepared 10
say, nor Is II necessary for say, how far the
assignment OF such reasons by any counsel, how
ever distinguished, il In accordance with his duty
under his oath; but there are otler
CONSIDERATIONS WHICH COUNSEL HAS URGED,
which, to some extent but not to the extent nc ASKS
do have force on my mind. They are the crcum-
stance OF his having been SICK ring the period as
signed Tor preparation, ana the fact that he an
nounces him ell to-day as unable by reason OF such
sickness, to proceed alone to trial. These crcum-
stances think are entitled to some weight, and
must result IN procuring BRIEF additional de-
lay on behalf OF the prisoner, but think II cannot
exceed Monday next. Until that day am Inclined,
IN view OF the statements of learned counsel, to
postpone this case. On that day. whether additional
counsel has been retained not the ca must pro-
coed. II the able gentleman now engaged II then
unwilling to pr0ceei, without somebody TO share
the responsibility with HIM, and the prisoner not
having been able to obtain additional COUNSEL, Will
assign and obige additional counsel 10 act. This
case must proceed on Monday next. NJ ha.f-past
ten O'Clock, and all the Jurors now present must at
tend theu without further orders.
The court was very speedily cleared OF the crowd
after the Judges address. and the ordinary business
proceeded.

Johnny and his Dog.

Johnny had little dog,
With hair as black as JET,
And every place that Johnny went,
The purp went too, you bet.
He followed him to school one day,
That happened to be near,
But when the teacher booted him,
''He walked off on his ear
Returning home he met cow,
And at the COW did fly; as
She tossed him up five hundred feet
''And how is that for high2'
The poor beast ne er came down again, 81
And John was left mourner;
For the purp was left in the steeple top
''Of the little church round the corner"
When Johnny heard his darling's fate,
A word he scarcely said,
But toddled home and weeping cried,
ttNow nut me in nv little bed."f
