A COURTROOM SCENE.
A Lively Interchange Of Words Be.
tween Hon. Henry G. Smith
and Judge Baxter, Of the
United States Court.

In the United States Court, Judge
Baxter on the bench, this morning,
there was an exchange of sharp
words which excited some apprehen-
sion and ct the same time aroused
the risibilities Of the lawyers present
Judge Henry G. Smith, one Of the attor-
neys in the case of Eakin VS.. Smith,
which had been decided for plaintiff, ad-
dressed the court and expressed the opin-
ion that Judge Baxter had charged the
jury in a certain manner, and that the
jury so acted.
Judge Baxter The court did not SO
charge, and if l thought a jury acted
upon this belief l would discharge the
jury as being incompetent.
Jodge smith-Theu, sir, you might as
well discharge me as being incompetent
to argue the case.
Judge Baxter-I would do so il nsces-
sAry.
Judge Smith-Then | might recipro-
cate the compliment, and discharge the
court for being incompetent to try the
case.
Judge Baxter-I wish you to under
stand that this court is not and will not
be controlled by any outside Influences in
the administration Of the law. l shall
hear no further argument, Judge Smith,
as you have had three days in which the
case was argued.
Judge SMITH am aware that the
court has power to make me suspend all
argument.
Judge Baxter i treat you, Judge
Smith, with the respect due your age. but
will not allow you any privilege not al
lowed the younger members of the bar.
Judge Smith--Will you let me call in
seine member Of the jury to show that
they acted under the belief that the court
charged as | stated2
Judge Baxter-No sir; l know what ]
charged, and the court has confidence il
the intelligence Of the jurors.
With this the exciting scene ended
Judge Smith took his seat, and the courI
proceeded to hear some lawyers state
ment in another case.

1t is rumored that Mayor Flippiu will
nominate DR.. Wise for health officer, a
position in which the responsibility and
duties are of such magnitude and i'm
p%ortance as to command a general and
deep interest, We understand that Mr..
Flippin has selected DR., Wise merely to
conciliate the Germans and to appease
a supposed disappointment among our
Hebrew fellow citizens because be did
not comply with the request of Mr.
Judah and other good men who asked
him to nominate Mr.. Edward Barinds
for city inspector, If Mr. Flippin i'm
AGNES hat he will strengthen his popu.
larity by such a course he is greatly mis-
taken. He hal an opportunity to nom.
mate Mr.. Schsper or DR.. Laski, who are
Germans, aud also Mr.. Barindi or Mr..
Fultz, who are Hebrews. Bot be has so
far ignored these gentlemen, and
now tries 10 hedge on DR.. Wise,
who, though nominated for secretary
of the board of health was severely de-
fested, receiving only eight votes. DR..
Wise, so far as we know, is a clever man
and may be a good physician. He is
comparatively little known to the people
Of Memphis, for he has resided here bat
a short while, and can hardly have any
thing like q desirable or proper know
edge of the wants and demands OF this
city in sanitary matters. Especially is
he a stranger to the treatment aud the
actual experience Of the climatic and
malarial diseases incident to this lccali
ty. Irrespective Of Mr.. Flippin's policy
to harmonic, and without assailing the
c~ommeRdable ambition which DR.. Wise
entertains for office, we earnestly hope
that the council will make a judicious
choice in the selection Of an experienced
physician, and one in whom the people
have confidence.
