highest tribunals in the State and
,ouutry had argued before magistrates
and mngnatcs; had heard all sorts OF
legal opinions, but the ono in question
was the most extraordinary to which
he had cIcr listened. THIS was rather
more than the court could carry con
ccalcd ON its person, notwithstanding
it came from OnG accustomed to badger
the young brood of Iawl crs, and to in.
timidate even the court itself, when
occasion offered. SO Judge Emmons
waited patiently TIL the great lesal or

Sit down, sir: sit down, sir; this
court will enforce respect sit down.
sir stormed the indignant Judge
"sit down, instantly"
This little episode created quite a
sensation where it occurred, and fur.
nished no small degree of qualification
to those officers and lawyers whom
Judge Nelson delights to brow

Emmons consider ably in their favor.
