Kill or Cure.

A favorite story told in Ireland is of a trial at Quarter Sessions in Mayo, which developed some of the ingenious resources when Pat chooses to exercise his talent in an endeavor not to pay. A doctor had summoned man for the sum of one guinea, due for attendance on the man s wife. The n,edico proved his case, and was about to retire triumphant, when the defendant humbly begged leave to ask few questions. Permission was granted, and the following dialogue took place:
 Defendant" Docthor, you remember when I called on you ?" Doctor" do.' Defendant" What did say ?''
 Doctor-"You said your wife was sick, and you wanted me to go and see her."
 Defendant" What did you say ?''
 Doctor-"I said I would, if you paid me my fec"
 Defendant" What did I say ?''
 Doctor-'' You said you'd pay the fee, if so be you knew what it was."
 Defendant What did you say ?" Doctor-''I I said I'd take the guinea at first, and maybe more at the end, &C., cording to the sickness"
 Defendan5-". Now, docthor, by vartue of your oath, didn't say Kill or cure, docthor, I'll give you a guinea?' and didn't you say Kill or cure, I'll take it ?"
 Doctor" You did and I agreed to the bargain. And I want the guinea accordingly"
 Defendant" Now. docthor, by vartue of your oath answer this: Did you cure my wife p
 Doctor-"No; she's dead. You know that
 Defendant-'' Then, doctor, by vartue of your oath answer this Did you kill my wife?"
 Doctor" No; she died of her ill- ness."
 Defendant (to the bench )-" Your worship, see this. You heard him tell our bargain It was to kill or cure. By vartue of his oath, be done neither = and he axes the fec
 The verdict, however, went against poor Pat, notwithstanding his ingenuity.

A doctor in Vermont kept missing his wood and set watch. As expected, it proved to be the work of a near neigh bor, who soon appeared, and carefully culling out all dry wood started off with an armful. The doctor hastily gathered up an armful of green wood and follow ed tugging as fast as he could and just as the man threw down his armful the doctor did the same, exclaiming: "There, you must burn green wood part of the time, I have to-" and departed, leaving the thief to his own reflections.

Sword Swallowing.

The London World says: With a view to allaying skepticism, M. Bene- detti, the sword swallower, gave a pri- vate seG1ace to some members of the medical profession, in his room at the Westminster Aquarium. Since thirteen years of age, 1t seems, this gentleman has been fighting Nature with the sword until he has pushed the stomach down into the groin, thus elongating the esophagus to an unnatural extent. As rule, he prefers taking food before the exhibition begins, as it makes the internal sheath more agreeable to the reception of cold steel, and protects the coat of the stomach from being pierced with the swords point. A physician who was present told me he distinctly felt the sword recede as it was withdrawn from the stomach lying quite in the groin. The M. D. s present found his throat @ good deal inhamed, and gave him a gargle.
 A few evenings since, 8 father and daughter at Wellesley, Mass, were mu- tually recalling incidents of the 1atter's childhood. CT shall never forget, said the young lady, Chow you took me out of church one Sabbath, when I was about three years old, and punished me for playing in meeting. can remember the tingling of that peach-tree switch to this day. :" Very strange, very strange" 7" said the father; "I don't recollect the circumstance at all." "Ah, well, papa, you were at the other end of the switch" ?"

A Curious cas- affecting the legal
definition Of cruelty to animals" has
just been decided In the English Ex-
chsqusr. at the sittings In Banco. The
magistrates Of Upper Geasur-Glyn
in Cardigan. had decided that ID was not
cruelty not TO shoot q m~are-which was
in fsal. and kept for the sake Of her ex.
pscted foal-suf'ering from q hopeless
injury to the lex. which caused Der great
torture whenever she moved about; and
this decision the Court Of EIchequer
confirmed. But the magistrates had
not RENTED for appeal the point which
both the Chief Baron and Baron Clsashy
regarded u the one really at issue
namely. whether il was not cruelty to
place the poor animal in a field where
she could only feed herself by INJECTING
great torture on herself through constant
molten. instead Of feeding her in q stall.
where she need not have used the injured
leg to anything like the same extsnt.
