A Utica, n. Y, lawyer writes OF a jus,

such knoity point brought before him
that be was obliged to look into the books

A somewhat similar story comes from
Mankalo. Mimi, where an attorney was
laying down the law with grea. assur-

forth, The gentleman demands that

A friend in Marble Hill, Mo-. sends Us
an anecdote OF Ex-Governor Vance. Of
North Carolina. Way back before the
war. tue Governor had case in one of
the mountains counties, where the old
law and decisions favored his client. but
late act OF the Legislature had
changed the law. and set it dead against
him. The counsel on the other side simp-
ly stated the law AS il then stood and Eat
down. expecting to gain the case "a
matter of course Vance rose. made an
impassioned speech in favor of his client,
adiured the court la "stick TO former de-
cisions," and concluded somewhat thus:
at is true that the counsel on the opposite
side has acquired some reputation for
ability and integrity in the practice OF the
law, but am utterly astouiShed that a
man OF his lean ming and candor should
get up here and try to impose on the in.
teIligence of this court by reading little
act OF the Legislature passed last winter.
when here is n decision of the Supreme
Court thirty year, old, settling the law in
favor OF ny client" Our correspondent
adds, Those who have had much practice
before inferior courts will not be surprised
to learn that Vance gained his case"
