During recent trial in an Indiana
court, the Judge interrupted the testi-
mony OF lady witness, remarking that
it was not relevant. The lady raised her
head. and, with look made all Of in
jured innocence, enauired: "Well, sir,
am telling this story. or you?" The
Judge wilted, and allowed her to talk as
loud as she wanted to.
A witty man. who lived in constant
fear of bailiffs, having absoonded, one of
his acquaintances was asked what was
the reason of his absence. "Why, sir. I
apprehend lie was apprehensive of being
apprehended. and so left to avoid ap-
prehension."
"Potatoes!' cried darkey peddler, in
Richmond. ''Hush dnt racket-you dis.

Under ordinary circumstances, it is
dangerous for q drunken man to go a
swimming, but doubly dangerous it is
for him to complioate monkey with gin
within him and water around him. The
truth of this willy proposition was proven
at Chelsea lately, when a man named
Joseph Small went to bathe in the Ser
pentine, accompanied by favorite mon
key. Having undreased himself, he
placed the monkey on his shoulder, se-
cured by chain, and then boldly waded
into the water breast high. Finding
itself in 80 uncongenial an element the
monkey got frightened, and rushed fran
tically about it's masters head, tightly
twisting the chain about the mans neck
and producing ssmi-straugulation. In a
moment down they went to the bottom.
but were soon rescued, the man insensi-
bic and the beast ohatteripg and gfin3ac-
ing at tremendous rate. Hereafter
Joseph Small will leave either his gin or
his monkey ON shore.

The \. Y. World is throwing away its
ammunition in discussing the antece-
dents Of Mr. Greeley, to prove thai he is
not proper person 10 De voted for by
the Democratic opposers of the Grant
Administration 1t should be under
stood that the people of the Southern
States, who are expected to give two
thirds Of the votes, which are necessary
to elect the ticket opposed to Grant, are
not going on wild hunt after the ante
eedents Of candidates in the present can
eass. II they were to embark in an en-
terprise Of that sort, they we'll know that
they would find but little in the career of
the candidates they would be expected
to support, whether nominated at Balti-
more or elsewhere, which would com
mend them to their favor In any
event, they would be expected to vote
for a man who either brought fire and
sword to their homes during the war, or
who aided and abetted those who were
engaged in that errand of devastation
Now, it Is reasonable that if the
Southern Democrats, or Conservatives,
have made up their minds to forego this
bitter memory - Northern Democrats
for the sake Of achieving the end
which IS common to the good and pa
triotic Of both sections, might consent TO
ignore past differences upon questions
which do not belong to this canvass.
Until the World and others of that
Tx are prepared to say that the election
shall turn upon the right Of secession
or the Virginia and Kentucky resolutions
or the sub-Treasury scheme of the last
generati0n-or the Constitutional Amend
ments Of the last Presidential campaign
and that candidates shall be selected
without reference to the side they were
on IN the Sectional War-it will be. wise
for them to discontinue the discussion of
and to address themselves
to the living, practical issues of the day.
We have not yet seen that in the mat
ter Of principle and governmental policy
the World proposes anything better than
the Cincinnati platform. Indeed, the
New York Democracy in convention,
have BY a unanimous vote, Endorsed it
n their Convention. And, as the World |
Ices not join issue with the State author
ties Of Its own party on that point, we
ire left to infer that it approves its
lction. Under these circumstances, how |
'ain, stupid, inconsistent, and we will |
'dd, Ineffective, are its furious assaults
n the antecedents of the Cincinnati
.andidate.

The Conservative CoIored voters.

The citizens of color who are opposed
to the policy Of prescription, and who
favor the establishment Of genuine
peace between the races-who are wea-
ried of Carpet Bag servitude, and crave
the blessings of civil government based
upon just principles-will find that they
are embraced within the scope of the
call for a State Convention of the oppos-
ers Of Radicalism. And they should be
assured Of a cordial welcome in the ranks
in the grand party Of deliverance from
the rule Of strife and oppression. We
trust the leaders of this movement will
not overlook this class of voters in the
primary assemblages and will. see that
they have opportunity of representation
IN the general convention, if they desire.
1t is well known that the colored men
who vote the Conservative ticket, are
composed mostly of the honest, unas-
Stunning men of toll, who have no motive
but to promote good will between the
races, and to advance the welfare of
both; and they are not inclined to press
themselves into prominent and conspicu-
ous places. They should nevertheless be
Kept advised of the movements on the
political chess-board, and rendered the /
opportunity of cooperation in the initial
proceedings, as well as in the essential
matter of voting.

to extend its operation beyond the time

the Senate over the united opposition of
the Democrats and Liberals, to re-enact

We learn that on Sunday last, that Col.
