afternoon, bowling and scraping and hold
ing battered old hat in one hand, while
he clawed at his iron-gray wool with the
other. A UNION AND AMERICAN reporter,
who happened to be in the Office, pricked
I'D his ears. He hal heard a good deal
about political 'TslateS," and it occurred to
him that the venerable cOlOred man
had intended to ask whether there
were any "dead ducks" on any
of the numerous political states of
which so much has been said and written
recently. But this was not the case, as
demonstrated by Capt. Y ater taking down
a slate which hung near the door, and
reading aloud therefrom a request that

\ CURIOUS case was decided in New
York before magistrate few days ago.
A woman committed an assault upon a
customer of her husbands the latter being
a tailor. The evidence of the complaint
was so clear and so amply eorrObOrated that
the magistrate was about to commit the
woman to Jail. At this junrture it was
proven that the tailor was witness to the
assault. This cleared the woman, there
being an old law Of the State which makes
the husband responsible for an assault COM
mitted by the wife in the husbands pres
ence. The complainant, however, declined
to have the husband punished for the wife's
