church Gas it now stands is 90 by so
feet in circ,tm ference"
Well, now, if the circumforaneons
editor Of that paper will tell its circum-
scriptible circumference of readers, the

morning cocktail before he circumgy-
rated to ascertain the circumference of
tn. new edifice, we will tell him exactly
what the circumfcrential dimensions
OF it's circumscribed circumference of
readers will soon be, unless its editor
takes advantage of the facilities for &C
curing the rudiments of common
school education afforded by the cirCum-
ference of the primary department of
our free public schools. This is the eX-
act circumference Of the case "as il
stands"

1T Is true that Henry w. Harrison
was admitted to the bar of the Count
Court on Monday last, and that tn
committee of examination found hin
fully qualified for admission and passe
upon him very high compliment, Blu
it is not true that Jacob Edgerton wa
one of that committee. The bar is no
obliged to go outside of lis. own mem
hers, for respectable individuals to cor
stitute its committee of examination
Probably our boastful contemporar
had visions of bankruptcy before il
eyes when it astopished the eflicier
regular assignee of the Bankrupt Court
for this district, by prom citing him t
head of the committee of examinatio
for admission TO the bar. We congrat
ulate Jacob on the distinction Of bein
advertised as holding position that
only filled by the leaders of the bar, an
never by man outside of the profe'
sion.
