MOVEMENTS OF COUNSEL.


The counsel in the case attract quite as much at
tention now as the plaintiff and the defendant. Ev-
cry consultation is narrowly watched by the specta-
tors. and is often invested with significance that
it does not possess. The counsel On each side drew
together, and their consultations were frequent.
Mr. Evsrts sat by ex-Judge Porter and right
behind him were Mr.. Beecher, Gen. Tracy,
Mr. Shearman, and John j. Hill Mr.. Beecher
made numerous suggestions to Mr.. Evarts
during the day, and once or twice he said some
thing which kept his counsel smiling for several
minutes Mr. Beecher himself joined in the merri-
ment excited by his remark. Mr.. Tilton seemed in
a serious mood and paid more attention to Mr.
Moulton's answers than to his counsel. Messrs.
Fullerton and Beach occasionally exchanged jokes,
but Mr.. Morris was moody and stern throughout the
day. Under his table was valse containing two
immense rolls of manuscript. These were the long
statements printed by Messrs Moulton and Tilton.
The recess was marked by incident which re-
moves all doubt concerning ex-Judge MOrris's feel
ing in regard to Mr.. Beecher. As soon as Judge
Nelson announced that the regular intermission
would be taken, Mr.. Morris stepped over to
Mr. Porter and called his attention to
one of the answers made by the wit
ness Mr. Beecher, observing Mr.. Morris in CONVEX
sation with his counsel addressed ocular remark
to him, but Mr.. Tilton's counsel deliberately
continued his conversation with ex-Judge portef.
Mr. BoSsShSE Withdrew with heightened color. Ex-
Judge Morris does not hesitate to denounce the
pastor of Plymouth Church, in private as well in
public,

Petition of victim, on reading asprogramme OF

You gather again, to discuss the profession,
And bring up the cases that trouble you most
In bleaching and drilling, extracting ndflling,
And each has speciality none else can boast.
For one shows his teeth where hetcan't show his
knowledge,
Obiecting tc mallets, except in crogaet.
Another in plaster absorbs some attention,
And sticks to his subject with plenty to say.
A treatment of abscess revealeth the matter,
In light of profession, sufficiently clear.
And celluloid virtues require your reflection,
While pulps in exposure elicita tear.
Yet many lose patience, and long for plate filing,
Prepared in the dining hall over the way,
Agreeing with promptness in handling full purses
That filing with gold is the surest to pay
But have you no thought for the psor cringing
victim.

Does no guilty conscience, in sleep. eer upbraid

And calmly she treads on your velvety door,
But quickly recoils at the swift little driller,

Than you cruel destists have grace to suppose;
You realize not, that this carious dentine

OH nightmares OF terror are naught to this an

In huge dental chair in the midst of heath,
And all of my life twas cesse1ess endeayor,

Has entered the gates Of enamel ajar;
And Arm, OF lEsthetic his readiest servant,
Unlocked with her magic, the great golden bar.
In sorrow my dearest companions I've buried,
And sadly have witness ed my hopes fade away,
But never on earth, have suffered such anguish,
AS when from my molars was cut the decay.
Obi heas then the cry of your suffering fellows!

With gentle depression, sooth fears SO depressing
And they will remember your me-ciful care.

CHICAGO, July 90, 1875.
In the State Journal, published at
Madison, Wisconsin,. and also ia many
other newspapers at various points in
the West, have appeared statements over
the signatures of the Marsh Harvester
Manufacturers, Durporting to be tele-
grams and letters from their agents, an
bouncing great victories By the Marsh
Harvester over the Mccormick, in field
trials.
Our Harvester has done and is doing
so uniformly we'll, and gives such excel
lent satisfaction to all who have purehas-
ed and used il, that until now we have
net thought it wsrth while to pay
attention to the false and absurd states
ments of these parties. But as they
have gathered boldness from our seem
ing indifference, ana continue their
malicious ISLANDERS with undated venom,
we deem It necessary to contradict them
point blank. We noS stete, and can
p1oUe oar statement NTH Sndisputc6le
ee6deace, that wherever a fair trial has
been lad between the Marsh and Nc
Cormick Halvesters, SO far as we know
to this date, our Harvester has proven
1t elf by far the better machine, and
that the statements made by tho Marsh
people as to the trials in Southern
illinois and other places are wiIful mis-
Representations, prompted by the fact
that cur machine has become so popular
aud is selling SO largely.
For instance, they say. "At Vandalia,
H.. June 10Th, the Mccormick was a
heavy draft and elevated poorly" as if
this were the report of committee.
Now the facts in this case are these |:
Three large farmers wishing to purchase
Haryesters, were undecided as between
the Marsh and Mccormick, and wished
to see tbem tested IN the field, and after
thorough and exhaustive test, eoduct-
ed by themselves under the supervision
CT the representatives of both maRufac-
turers, all three purchased Mccormick
Harvesters, and we have their certificates
10 that effect, and can get their affidavits
If necessary.
Al Nashville, ILL.,, our agent has sold
aud delivered fifiy-nine (59) Mccormick
Harvesters. all giving perfect satisfac-
ton
At Tamaroa, IT., no committee was
appointed, and therefore no decision.
consequently the view given in the
Marsh publication IS simply their own
opinion.

THE Albany Lao Journal, in COM
menting Oh the decision Of the SUI
preme Court of Ohio in regard to the
question of Bible reading in the pub

in the following forcible light:
ssThe common school is aplace for
secular instruction, and not for relig-
ious training. 1t is supported by
taxation of the property Of citizens
Of every shade Of belief and unbelief
and Jews, Protestants.
and Catholics, Atheists, Mohamme-
dams. Chinese, Darwinians, ETC.; and
all these people possess the right to
have their children educated there
in secular learning, and to have them
not educated in religious beliefs. If
the state may lawfully appoint the

of Christian hymns in the public

A WOMAN FREE MASON. - Har-
per's Bazaar says that it is a mistake
to suppose that the lady who con-
cealed herself in room where a
s'lodge'' was about to be held, and
who when discovered was compelled
or allowed to be initiated, is myth.
The o'clock case may be myth,
but the lady is not. She was the
Hon. Mrs. AIdworth, and continued
through life to take an active inter
est in the Order into which in her
youth she had SO strangely gained
admission. She founded the Dub
lin Benevolent Institution for Or
phan Daughters o. Masons. Her
portrait still hangs in the principal
lodgeroom in Cork, and under it, in
a glass case, the apron and jewel she
used TO wear when she attended
lodge meetings.

schools, why may they not order the
reading of the Westminster Cate
echism? If this is to be the rule,
we might have the Koran or the Tai
mud as text books in localities where
the Mohammedans or Jews CHANGED
to be in the majority; or, if the CON
munity happened to be ultra-cien-
tifc, we might haze Darwin on the
Descent of Man, or Huxley on Pro
toplasm, or Mr.. TyndalFs Dublin
address imposed as the leading books
of instruction. The state has no
more right through the public schools
to teach the child of a Jew to be-
lieve in Christ than that Jew has to
insist on the teaching of his own be-
lief to him. Every parent has the
right to bring his child up in his own
religious creed, and the state has no
authority to interfere with the free
exercise of that right. Especially
has IL no right to campel him to pay
money to assist the interference. To
tax man to put down his own re-
ligien is the very essence of tyranny"
When Protestants plant them
selves on this broad ground and con-
sistentIy maintain it, they will occu-
Ply position completely unassailable
by the Catholic. It is the only SEN
sible ground. The difficulty with too
many Protestants is that they want
their kind OF religion, and Eot that
of the Catholic, taught in the public
schools, forgetting that the Catholic
has different wish and has just as
much right to have it gratifed.-M-

An address by DR.. p. A. Chad
bourne, President of Williams Col
.lege, gives sound sense in the follow
ing:
ct seems to be the aim of some
textbook makers, and some teach
ers, too, TO make every study as diff
ficult as possible, for the sake of The
discipline. No doctrine is more fall
lacious. Get your discipline by doing
a greater amount of work and doing
it In better style. What sensible
man would turn aside to ride over
quagmires and stone heaps for the
sake of more exercise for himself or
horse. An oak tree might be felled
with stone Ratchet, and one would
get a deal of exercise in doing the
job; but the same time and strength
with good steel axe would give as
much exercise and leave something
to show for the labor. Leave stone
hatchets to savages; let civilized
men use the sharpest steel axes they
can find. They will thus do the most
work and do it in the best manner.
This principle of dealing with essen
tials mainly should prevail in all the
work of education. We have too
much to do 10 spend time fooling
over complicated arithmetical puz-
zles which abound in some books
questions which no one should un-
dertake to solve till well versed in
algebra and geometry. At the proper
stage Of education, such puzzles,
which are encouragement to the
young scholar because he thinks
them essential to the subject, will be
solved in the natural grogress of his
work. They are an annoyance and
Encouragement because they are in
troduced before their time"
