HE W HlrEWASHING CT BEECEEE =
La support Of tho charsrs Hga;,.st Mr..
DeecGcr there Is the testimony Of Mr.
Becchcr himself, of Mr.. Mention, of
Mr.. and Mrs Titon. In answer, there
nre the allegations OF MIR. BeccLer and
Mrs. Tltou. AIR. Beecher's word is
entitled to grent weight, but are The
other persons OF such Infamous lives
that their words urc cuti.!e.l to 10
weight whatever as against himp l.
the committee justified in its nssump-
ton that Ihe word IF this one man il;
to be taken on Any ono fact to any de-
gree. while We are utterly TO cast away
as worthless the words uf several pcr
sons who, till within short time.
stood in the light of his couutenauce
and were his most trusted fumillars ?
What is there against Mr. Monltnu 10
inenlidlto his testimony? Oaly the
simple fact that Mr.. Bcecher makes
ugnlnst him the charge Of black mil;
and in support of this charge there is
Mr.. Deecher's statement only. So it
appears TINT Mr.. Beecher's word is not
only sufficient to stand alone, but if
any witness shonll rise up against him,
it i. only necessary for him to say tina,
such witness Is Il rogue, aud forthwith
the witness is rulcn out Of the Ply
mouth Court. This is convenient for
incriminatcd pastors; but it looks SO
much like idoIuiry that it cannot bc
justice. AS for those famous letters,
they are the testimony of Mr.. Deech4r
against his own innoceucu. They are
mere rawlings, aud they arc to he con-
struel in II way consistent with the
known sanity Of the writer.

steamer Mlkado it is learned that the
king of the Sandwich Islands. in o
speech proroguing the Assembly, spoke
strongly in favor OF reciprocity treaties,
particularly favoring one with the
United Suites, and snid that no effort
on his part would be wanting to secure
the desired result. The king has ap-
pointed two commissioners to COLLECT
and forward to the Philadelphia Inter.

OF the arts. manufactures and products

SINISTER.

Attorney General Clark was recent
~ u witness In the case of j. w.
Mitchell w the proprietor Of the ST.
Louis Republican, u suit for damages
instituted by the plaintiff for having
been called "shystcr' by the defen-
dants. In the courseof his examination
he was asked what he understood Ia
be the meaning Of the word "shyster,n
and to what class Of attorneys IL was
applied in the state of Texas. He
said
''rhe term shyster, according to my
impression, Is used TO designate class
Of attorneys who are ignorant In u
great measure of the ethics aud science
OF the profession, aud who resort
habituolly to disreputable devices in
order to obtain fees, The term Is more
frequently applied to class of attor-
neys who frequent inferior criminal
courts, and, by trickery, seek to ena-
bio criminals to evade punishment.
Tho term Is sometimes applied to u
class of attorneys who stir up litigation
and seek out clients, rendering their
services for a totally inadequate COM
pensation."
In regard to the practice of soliciting
clients or patronage, the witness said
A general solicitation by way of a cir
cular to the public is considered q
legitimate mode of advertising in
Texas, but to address communities
ton to- party already involved in
litigation, or about to be involved,
soliciting II retrainer, would be deem.
cd unprolossional, unless in case the
party was particular friend, or some
other exceptional case of like charac-
ter.
The witness was asked how he would
regard an attorney who spoke with
the plaintiff in case, obtained infor-
nation from him, and not being ac-
cepted as plaintiffs counsel, wrote to
the defendant that he knew some
thing to his adv antage, and asked him
to call at his Office.
Witness-I should regard such con-
duct as reprehensible in the highest de-
gree, and that there would be but one
proper punishment for lawyer so act
ing, to-wit: That he be debarred upon
a proper aseertainment of the facts.

II the food taken into the stomach IL not

vent their recurrence, II is only necessary TO

neglected. In chronic dyspepsia, with its con-
comltants of gnawing In the stomach, dizzi-
ness, perverted vision, headache and Sleep
lcssness II is true that all those disagreea-
bles may be obviated by course Of the Bit
ters but how much wiser TO anticipate their
arrival with one or two doses of that pure
preventive of indigestion and strengthened
of the alimentary organs.

We take pleasure in copying the fol-
lowing we'll deserved compliment to
our young townsman, G. N. Aldredge,
Esq, from an article in the Ellis
County News, ION the district court,
now in session there:
The state has also had a faithful rep
resentative in the person of Geo. n.
Aldredge, Esq. He has indeed been
energetic and efficient, discharging
the onerous duties of district ATTORNEY
with signal zeal and ability. His
powerful effort in one of the felony
cases tried, elected the praise and adj
miration of every one who heard it.
Disposed to give every one a fair
chance to prove his innocence, vet
when satisfied from the law and testi-
mony that the defendant has been
guilty of gross violations of the law,
he eloquently and successfully insists
that ne must suffer the consequences.

Saving Manure.

IT is often remarked that those who
farm near large cities must have great
advantages over people at distance III
the ease and cheapness with which they
can obtain manure. We are not sure
that this is so. We have seen many a
country town where manure may be had
nearly for the trouble of hauling, while
the writer has had to purchase many
load for his land near Philadelphia at
the rate of two dollars horse lhaN Is
to say, four dollars for As much as TWO
horses could haul away. Perhaps near
these large cities we have better ldea
of the value of manure than in many
other places. We have learned that 1t
costs no more for labor on rich land than
on poor. and labor costs far more than
manure-poor and dear even as labor
generally is.
These remarks are Introductory 10 the
suggestion that il would pay many
people to look more after saving ma
nurc than they do. Here we find 1t
much to our interest. AS general rule
we suffer no weeds to grow, but ii very
often happens in the hurry of spring
work that the weeds get tremendously
ahead and if we had a weed law ana
malicious neirhhors near us to prosecute
under it we suppose we should very
often get hauled up before the court
When the season is somewhat wet a
the present one was with Us, The weeds
seem to run riot for while Before We
could put the cultivator through some {. Of
our hoed crops the weeds in many in.
stances were foot high; and the
first time the harrow went through
there was little more impression
made on them apparently than il II had
been dragged through a cloyerteId. J

Intelligent Brutes.

An article in ApplfoaS' Jouwal gives
numerous instances in which brute ami
mails were in old times treated as reason
ing and responsible beings In the Mid
die Ages it seems TO have been quite
common for animals such as hogs, goats,
mules, horses, eats, dogs and cocks, to be
taken up by the constable and brought
before a regular court when they had
been deemed guilty of any misdeedS.
In 1868 hog was condemned by the
Judge of Falaise in France to be mutt
lated in the legs and head and then
hanged for having torn the arm and face
of a child causing its death The hog was
dressed in mans apparel and the SEN
tence was performed in the public square
of the town The eNeCutioner had to be
paid the usual fee, besides receiving a
new glove
In i474 cock was condemned to Ne
turned by the magistracy of Basic.
Switzerland. for having laid IN cgr.
Burning was the punishment of witch
craft. and it was for his wiekcdnc>s in
producing such an egg-Sample that this
shocking rooster was sentenced TO be
consumed by fire instead Of being only
roasted and honnrahly consumed bv his
owners The egg, too, the supposed fruit
