Pretty well for a Hog.

1t seems almost incredible that
such a dull, stupid creature as a hog
should have had the presence of
mind which the following incident
from a Western paper gives credit
for
a very curious incident occurred
yesterday, by which hog took a free
ride across the river bridge. 1t was
about half past three o'clock that a
freight train was approaching the
city, when a hog, nightingale one
hundred pounds, was seen on the
track at the west end of the bridge.
It did not get out of the way soon
enough, and the pilot of the engine
struck it. Instead of knocking of,
however, the sloping front of the pi-
lot caught his porkship and rolled
him right upon the platform in front
of the boiler. There he arose and
sat looking around, and was, by this
time, out over the bare ties, where,
if he had jumped of, he would have
gone down to the water. He evident
" saw this, for he remained on the
engine, and rode all the way across
the bridge. When the engine arriv-
ed on this side the hog sprang MIN
bly, off upon the platform, near Mr..
TwaddelPs watch-house, and, after
grunting its satisfaction at its mar
row escape, it moved of: 1t was
slightly hurt in the side and one leg,
but will recover.

".And he Was so Young"

He was only twenty-five, and the
bloom of youth on hisnose had scarce
" been eaten into by the rust of
manhood's tribulation. He was
found drunk on the sidewalk, lying
on his back, arms folded across his
peaceful breast, and the pale, cold
moon cast 4 snowy shadow across
his path.
ever here bcforc?" asked the
court.
"Never."
"And you feel powerful mean over
.this?"
q do"
"And You won't be found in such
a situation again?"
"Never."
well, be very careful OF your con-
duct in the future young man. You
are just budding into manhood now,
and if you are picked up drunk at
TWENTY-FIVE, what may not happen
to you at forty-four? l don't advise
you to carry an iciclc around in your
pocket, or to refuse prescription be-
cause one of the ingredients is burnt
brandy, but as general thing it
will be best for you to mind your
own business, let intoxicating drinks
alone, and pay your board bill in adj
vance. This is all, sir-there's the
way out"

MR.. II. X. STEVENS:
Dear Slr-We have good reason for regarding
your VEGErINE a medicine OF the greatest
value. We feel assured that II has been the
means or saving our sons life. He Is now
seventeen years OF age for the last TWO years
he has suffered from necrosis OF his leg caused
by scrofulous affection, and was so far reduced
that nearly all who saw him thought his recoy-
cry impossible. A council OF able physicians
could give us but the faintest hope OF his ever
rallying; two or the number declaring that he
was beyond the reach OF human remedies, that
even amputation could not save him, as ho had
not vlgor enough TO endure the operation. Just
then we commenced giving him VEGETlNE,
and from that time TO the present he has been
continuously improving. He has lately re-
sumed studies. thrown away his crutches and
cane, and walks about cheerfully ana strong.
Though there is still some discharge from tho
opening where the limb was lanced, we have
the fullest confidence that In Il little time he
will be perfectly cured.
lie has taken about three dozen bottles OF
VEGETINE. but lately uses but little, as he de-
clares he is too well TO be taking medicine.
Respectfully yours,
marl3dSwim MRS. l.. c. Y. BEST.

IOWa's Lady Lawyer.

The Dubuque Oa.) Herald of the 21st
SAYS: Mrs. J. Ellen Foster was admit
ted to the practice of law in the Su-
preme Court of Iowa yesterday-the
first honor of the kind accorded to any
lady in the State. Mrs. Foster, we be-
lieve, acquired her legal education in
the office of her husband, who is also a
member Of the Clinton Qa.) Bar, and
both are partners in the firm Of Foster
& Rice, of that city. The lady's debut
upon the legal stage was a creditable
one, she appearing as counsel for the
defendant in the case of Jacob Oswald
VS.. Walter |. Hays. 1t was the opinion
of the judges and attorneys in court yes
terdav that the Judges case would be
well taken care of. Certainly the gen
tie attorney presented her argument in
a clear, concise and able manner, show
inc herself mistress of the situation in
ali its legal bearings, and making a very
favorable impression in the courtroom.
She is quite prepOssessing in appear
ance. both in feature, form, and dress.
The fair lawyer wore rich black silk,
without ornamentation or furbelows,
overskirt, or any thing else upon the
demitrain, which was gracefully caught
up en- panier, and thus the dreary plain
ness was relieved. a plain black silk
hat, enlivened with some bright flowers,
a velvet sacque with a trimming OF
guipure lace, and pink silk necktie,
completed the lady's costume. Her
manner upon the platform was digni-
fed, easy, and lady-like; and. 50 far as
all we have mentioned goes. the effects,
ali in all, were rather pleasing. and the
Dubuque Bar IS disposed to take quite
kindly to lawyers OF the female persua-
sion.
