Anew WAY OF ssTTLise Law SUMS.

There is something more than even
Irish humour in the story Of the settle
ment Of lawsuit which comes from
Cionmel. At the Tipperary Assizos,
which are being held ia that town,
young farmer had brought au action
against lady Of his own age for The pos.
session of part Of a farm When The
young woman was under cross eNamina.
lion, the plaintiff WAS ordered 20 con-
front her with reference to a part OF her
evidence. As the litigauts stood together
happy thought struck the Judge Why
should not this good-looking couple be
happy together? lie whispered the idea
TO the jury, who at once accepted IT, lie
then suggested il to the couple themscl-
yes. If they married they would both
take the farm; If they went on quarel-
ing abou. IL they would hilter Il away.
The young lady being asked whether she
was willing thus 10 end the strife, intima-
ted that she was. The barrister then ask
cd the young man, win you marry this
young woman Most undoubtedly was
his unhcsitating response. The counsel
suggested that the wedding should tako
place at once; but that point was left to
be settled hereafter. The suit ended IA
the entry Of a verdict for the plaintiff, on
condition Of his promise to marry the de-
fendant within two months; the verdict
not to be executed til the marage core-
mony is performed. We regret to add
that this most pleasant ending ofa law
suit was a little chequeled The counsel
chafied the young lady till she left the
court in tears. We may at least hope
that the tears were not altogether tears Of
vexation; and that, just as the lawsuit
has ended in courtship, the tears will
soon turn to smiles May we also eX.
press hope that 50 good an example will
not be lost on lIugants.--Load0H Daiy

ANNA DIcKINsoN's ADVENTURE 0N
ICE.

Discussing the other day the question
of mans and woman's promptness and
punctuality, | was told the following sto-
ry Illustrative Of the determination OF
the feminine mind to keep an engage
ment. 1t was last winter, think, that
Miss Anna T.. Dickinson lectured at
Newburg, on bitter cold night She
was advertised to lecture in New York,
and learned in the morning that the riy-
er at the former place was locked up
frozen over, indeed, but no one had the
courage to venture across. The ice was
not strong enough TO bear horse and
sleigh, and above and below the town
was so thick that to get boat across was
impossible. Miss Dickinson declared she
would cross the Hudson, and offered u
handsome price to any man who would
assist her in accomplishing her object.
Several stalwart fellows whom she had
consulted assured her that ii was worth
ones life to attempt the passage and flatly
refused to aid her, until she expressed
her determination TO go alone. This so
shamed them that they finally consented
to get sleigh and try to push her across
to Fishkill, where she could take the
down train for New York and reach the
Cooper Institute in time for her lecture
The mercury was in the vicinity of zero,
and biting wind, sufficient TO freeze
the marrow in ones bones was sweep
ing down the Hudson. The three men
bundled up tho little lady in blankets and
robes covering her SO completely that she
could neither see nor walk, and placed
her as If she had been baby in the
sleigh. One went before and two behind
and off they started with their precious
bundle of feminine resolution. The way
was long; the air was bitter; the AIR was
rough. The men worked like Trojans
bat they did not succeed in reaching the
opposite bank for nearly three hours,
when, after many narrow escapes, they
picked up their charge, frozen almost
stiff, through all her wrappings, and con-
veyed her to the railway station. They
were too late for the train. 1t was fully
half all hour before the fair lecturer was
sufficiently thawed TO be able TO stand
on her feet, and even then she was so
cold and in such pain that she was COM
PEELED TO pace the room for more than
four honrs until the next train arrived.
Her glorious energy aud innexible reso-
luton, however, carried her through.
She reached the city about nine o'clock
her lecture had been announced at eight
and drove at once to the Institute,
without morsal OF food, and still suffer-
ing intensely from cold. She delivered
the lecture at any rate; but she could
scarcely stand the while, and was so per-
turbed in mind from what she had suffer-
ed as scarcely to be able 10 collect her
thoughts. Some one, speaking Of this
instance of heroism to Henry Ward
Beecher not long after, asked him II he
thought any man would do what Anna
Dickinson had done for the sake of an
engagement. No, replied Beecher, don't
think any man would; aud If he would,
he'd be coniounded fooll--N y. Cor

ALL HANDS BELow.r-A good story
is told of parrot, who had Away:
lived on board ship, but who escaped
at one of the southern ports. and took
refuge in church Soon afterwards
the congregation assembled, and the
minister began preaching to them, in a
regular rcd.hot fashion, saying that
there was no virtue in them; that every
one of.them would go to hell, unless
they speedily rcpented. Just as be
spoke the sentence, ont spoke the par.
rot from his hiding.placc:
All hands below.'
To say that "all hands were startled,
would be but mild way of putting il.
The peculiar voice, from it, unknown
source, had much more effect upon
them than the parsons voice ever had.
He waited moment, and then, o shade,
or two paler, he repeated the warning.
"All hands below" again rang out
from somewhere.
The preacher started from his pulpit,
and looked anxiously around, inquiring
if anybody had spoken.
All hands beloww was the only re-
ply, at which the entire panic-stricken
congregation got up, and a moment af-
ter they all bolted for the doors, the
preacher trying his best to be first, and
during the time, the mischievous bird
kept up his yelling:
"All hands below"
There was one old woman there, who
was lame, and could not get out SO fast
as the rest, aud, in very short time,
she was left entirely alone. just as
she was about to hohble out, the parrot
flew down, and. alighting on her shout.

old woman; "you can't mean me. Il
