No. 2i6, Manoah Hoyt vs.. John NJ Bent.
The docket is never free of class of actions
always spoken of derisively as 'hoss cases.
This is one of them-brought by kempton,
and defended by Bean. The parties. howev-
er, are neither of them professional horse
jockies, but farmers, living in Vienna. The
plaintiff s story is that he swapped off his old
mare for the defendants four year old colt,
and paid 5000 as boot; that defendant repre-
sented that the colt was a good traveller ard
was all right; but on trial his travelling ca
pacities turned out to be limited to walk,
and that he could not trot any more than a
fat hog. The defendant refused to trade back
and the plaintiff after keeping the colt two years
got rid of him for S95, and now comes back on
the defendant TO get down the boot paid, alleg-
ing breach of warranty. On the other hand
the defendant says there was no warranty, and
no representation, on either side as to the char
acter of the horses; that he did not even see
the plaintiffs mare antil after the trade was
made, and that she turned out to be utterly
worthless. The testimony on the whole gives
the transaction very much the aspect of a
practice which used to prevail amongst boys,
of "throwing jack. where each side
was expected to run his own risk of getting
cheated.
1t was five o'clock when the judge finished
his charge, and the jury was excused from
taking the papers might.

WOOI-GrOWIng a success

We are asked why wool-growers dt
not fail as other men do. We ansWel
simply because the growth Of the WOO
and the increase Is as perpetual as thS
time in which they live. 1t matter
not how dark the night is, the WOO
continues to grow, and it matters no
how the wind blows or how it may
storm, CESSATION is never longer thar
$50 days. The animals will average
One-half females, and often twins
and they breed the next year, making
double compound perpetua
growth and no loss. Everything thai
does not go into the market goes bael
to enrich the pasture, and though the
landlord may be sick 1t does not stOT
the growth of lambs.
Not so with other business. ThC
mechanic or the man who works fol
salary has nothing to grow while he
sleeps; when his labor ceases his In.
come stops, and his expenses are per
petual. 1t is true, there are perpetual
expenses attending the sheep and goat
business; but under the most unfavor-
able circumstances, where they car
live on the commons without feeding
the meat of the wethers will pay al
expenses without drawing on the WOO
or increase of the ewes. Hence it is
like perpetual stream flowing into 8
basin; it is only question of time
about filling it TO overflowing. The
drawback seems to be that men dc
not relish living away from thickly
populated settlements and towns, de.
prfving themselves of society for the
sake of money. This objection car
be obviated. In all new countries
there are villages constantly spring
ing up, near which good sheep range
can be had, where the owner can visit
his fiocks daily, and also give his fam
lily the benefit of schools and society

Saratoga Dancing.

The fashion of dancing is not at aIl
cOsmopOlite-not even national. In
Saratoga the different STYLES make q
medley.
If you see q two hundred pound
man and woman perspiring around
with their pOmpOus bodies tossed
light and sprightly in the air, arms
swaying, keeping good time, and
/ making grand Persian salaams for 8
bow to the Laneers, you can set them
down as belonging to the old Tweed
Observation-Disclosures Club school.
If you see two heated young people
tripping fast away ahead Of the most,
taking short steps, and jerking
through q square dance as if the house
was on fire and the set must be COM
pleted before any one could take to the
fire-eseapes, you can set them down as
from the plantation districts of Penn
sylvania and the West. 1t is the
steamboat quick-step.
If You see black-eyed youth with
long hair, and a young lady with
liquid black eyes, and she has her two
hands on the young mans shoulder al
full length, and stands directly in
front OF him, and they both go hop
ping around like Siamese twins with
springs under them, you can wager
they are from Louisville, Memphis OF
Little Rock. They have the square
hold wrestling step.
If you see q young fellow grasp 8
young lady firmly around the waist
seize her wrists, stick her hand oui
like the bow-sprit of q Sound yacht
and both hump up their backs like 8
pair OF mad cats on dOOr-yard fence
and then go sliding slam-bang against
people, over people, through people
up and down the room sideways
backward, and up and down, like
saw-mill gate, you can, having learn
ed their dancing, join the MOrristOWn
Riverdale, and YOnkers soeiables. II
is the suburban New York saW-mil
jump-up.
If you see couple gliding gently
and slowly and lazily through tht
lancers, just as fast as the time, bu
keeping step with the music, quietly
sauntering the "grand CHAIN" toC
languid to whirl partners, talkinl
sweetly all the time as II they Werl
strOlling in a graveyard, you can res
assured that they are from New York
and from the most fashionable sec
tiOns between Madison Square anG

Conscience.

1 remember reading when little
boy, about little girl who was i'm the
habit of going to an upper room oI
loft where there was q store of apples
She went from time to time to steal
the fruit, but she met with something
that greatly troubled her. There hap
pened to have been placed in that
store-roOm an old oil painting. 1t was
large face, the eyes of which, go to
what part of the room the little girl
might, seemed to follow her, and they
appeared to be saying to her, as she
stopped to take the apples, "Ah, / see
you. 1t is very naughty. You are
sure to be found out" This so annoyed
the little culprit, that she determined
to put a stop to the threatening OF
those two staring eyes, so she pro-
cured small knife, and stuck them
out. All! but there were still the two
large holes in the place of them, and
she could never look at them without
thinking of the eyes, and what they
to say to her. She had not, nor used
never could get rid of her conscience.
Moreover the very means she had used
for SHINING without rebuke only
served to discover her guilt, for, when
what had befallen the painting came
to be found out, it led to such inqui-
ries as at last to reveal the whole truth.

The Dem Ocrats having character
lied Grant as the coming Cesar, q
wag tells who the "Original Jaeobs''
was, and all about him, as follows:
Julius CRsar-an ancient Roman OF
celebrity. He advertised to the effect
that he had rather be first in Rome
than second in q smaller village. He
was man of great muscular strength.
Upon one occasion he threw a whole
army across the Rubieon. A general
named Pompey, met him in what is
called the "tented field" but PompeY
couldn't hold q Roman candle to
Julius. We are assured, upon the au-
thority of Patrick Henry that "Cesar
had his Brutus." The unbiased reader
of history, however, will conclude, On
the contrary that Brutus had Cesar.
This Brutus never struck me as an un-
pleasant man to meet, but he did
Cesar. After addressing a few oral
remarks to Brutus in the Latin Ian
guage, Cesar expired. His subsequent
career is without interest. Caesar was
bald, which Grant is not, and wore a
laurel fly-brush to conceal the billiard
ball which he called head.

The Pope in recent address to the
Bishops said /:
At this moment q struggle is going
on between some Bishops and a CathO-
lie American government. The Free
Masons, who have penetrated every
where, are there, and, not content
with sitting among the councillors of
the sovereign, they have introduced
themselves into the pious associations,
such as the confraternities. There
they have sought to make it appear
that the Free Masons of this party in
America are not at an like those of
Europe, but are simply a charitable
society. Deeeitful assertionI In Amer
lea the Free Masons are not less ex-
communicated and mathematical
than those elsewhere. But, in aid of
this deceit, they have attempted to
display themselves in the administra-
ton OF our pious works /; and now
that the Bishops say, with holy John
the Baptist, non Hcet, they cry out,
threaten, create agitation, and, as is
their custom, go so far as to put in
peril the Church and the throne.
