AN ANEcDoTE OF JAcKsoN.-Long years
after the. capture Of Stony Point, when An
drew Jackson was President, visitor at the
White House remarked that the postmaster
in his town (who "held over'') was an enemy
to the President-had even been heard to
call him "a scoundrel," and urged the remov-
al of the ill-mannered officer.
"What sort of person is he ?" inquired
the President.
The visitor admitted that the postmaster
was an aged and an honorable man, and Incl
dentally remarked that he was one of the sur
vivors of the battle of Stony Point.
"What !' said the President, rising from
his chair, "Was he really with Anthony
Wayne at Stony Point?"
certainly was" replied the visitor.
"Well, then," said Old Hickory, "by the
Eternal be has perfect right to call me a
scoundrel every day in the week, and to be
postmaster during his natural life"

A PALPABLE H1T.-Not long ago, in a
country town, barrister was examining a
lady witness who would talk, and who would
not let any of the lawyers bubbles get the
better of her. The forensic advocate grew
irate at the old ladys loquacity, and, as she
stepped down after her badgering, remarked,
"You see, your Honor, these old women will
talk. They are very troublesome, and will
waste the time of the court" His Honor
looked up, relieved himself with one of his
peculiar sighs, and replied, "Ah, Mr.,
there are other old women in this court who
waste time, besides that respectable old lady
who has just left the witness box" The law
yer collapsed, his honor looked very serious,
but every body else enjoyed the luxury Of a
broad grin, the hit was so direct.
