ANOTHER STORY or yYE.
Here is sill another story concerning tie
deceased statesman, which Is me as good
as the preceding one:
lie was once engaged in irving q case at
the Ciicuif, IN one Of The souiLefn tier Of
counties, The presiding Judge being uHior-
tuH1'ciy pecSiSh aHd irritable, as well As
rather Gull Of apprehension. Gen. Nve
had not only cross examined witness at
great length, bu. had free lcntly lut The
same questions, which the Judge had fle-
queHtiy ruled against as improper. At
last the patience of the judge Was exhaust
ed, aud he Iebuked Gen. Nve for his
c arse, aud p, Il asked him: Zen,
Nye, what Do y1u thIIk | aIn sitting here
Tor? Nye looked mp ~ the bench. aud
with grave countenlEce. but with 4

CONF iosc3ly. You have got Nc tins tme,
