The CLOCK OF SANS SoUCI.-1t is related of
Frederick the Great, of Prussia, that in going
through the reception room Of his palace at
Sans Souci, he encountered workman who
busted himself to get on the top of ladder to
take down clock from the wall, but owing to
the smOothneSs OF the marble floor the ladder
could not be kept hrm. "What art thou doing
here, mon ani?" inquired the king. 81 am
matchmaker" answered the workman, "and
have received orders from the superintendent of
the palace to repair this clock; l have been try
ING TO take it down, but cannot succeed, as the
ladder does not stand fim." "Ascend the lad
DER said the king, "and will hold it while
you are at work." This done, the workman de-
parted with the clock. On the following morn
ing, the king was informed that rhe clock ofthe
reception-room had been stolen. No sooner had
his majesty heard this, when he found to his
chagrin, that instead, as he believed, of assist
ing matchmaker, he had been made the dupe
of thief i be king at once issued an order
saving, Let him run; have been an accom-
pllce to the Gheft."-ChriStian Union.

The writer of the "Piccadilly Papers" IN
L0ndon Society gives some pleasant renlIni-
SCIENCES of bar life in England, as told by the
eminent Judge Sir John Taylor ColcridSe.
The "reminiscences relate to the old posting
DAYS. vet they are in the main as true as ever
of circuit life. Our circuit. he says, was ii
somewhat stately affair. The Judges did not
post, but travelled with sober haste, drawn
hv their own four-in-hand. The harristers
posted or rode II WAS an understood rule
not TO travel from place to place in any pub
lie conveyance. The "leaders" always had
Their private carriages. and some of them
their Saddlc-horscs also. Our mess was
rather an expensive one, and we had our
own cellar Of wine ut each circut-town. This
was under the care Of our winc-trimmcr,"
and van, with four horses, attended US, I'M
der the superintendent of our baggage
master.
The Judges travelled with their own four
horses, and with their own four wigs also.
The brown wig served for the morning when
not in court; the powdered dress wig for
dinner: the tye wig with the black Golf when
sitting on the civil side of the court; the
fllll-bottomed one, which was never omitted,
for the Crown side. Those were DAYS when
gentlemen in common life wore coats OF
every color, but we always diBed with the
Judges in black. ... ST.. .. .-. .. ..
a barrister in full practice has endless
variety of life, incident, and character. Some
times scenes are witnessed on circuit as re-
markabe as any OF those which our drama
fists have ventured to produce at the theatres.
