 Among the many recipients of Jacobs bounty was an old man by the name of Sals ,onstall, or Sir Roswell Saistonstal, Duke of Rigmaroll," as he was called, a person of strange idiosynerasys. who had great sheets of parchment sent to him ito which were appended seals and flaming ribbons) elaborately written out in Lat tin, purporting to come from various Eu- ropean sovereigns, conferring upon him these titles of nobility for .'his discover ies in astronomy" etc., all of which he fully believed but it was 'only this and nothing more;" so he depended upon such generous friends as Mr. Little to help him long and keep the wolf from the door. He looked more like Doctor Franklin than any man 1 ever saw One day (and a very busy one it was with Jacob), the old man called for a little assistance" the counter was blocked up by customers, and the clerks were flying to and fro in waiting upon them, when he called out to Jacob, that he would like to see him just minute;" the latter re- piled: Cant attend to you to-day. MT. S., very busy, call tomorrow" "To-mor- row never comes, Dr. Franklin used to say." replied the Duke. Well, never mind" said Jacob, ''nert day then" This raised shout of laughter from those at the counter; but the old man did call the following day, and generously did Jacob respond to it.
 He was the heaviest operator in the stock market known at that day, and at one period almost completely controlled it. It was at this time when old Mir Brunce, a wealthy Scotchman, (who had no faith in the value of anything but treasury notes), addressed him, Jacob. do you know what Mir. Gallatin. the President of the National bank. says about you?" "No." replied Jacob .'what does he say?'

A Fearless and Truthful Judge.

I once heard this anecdote of Judge Parsons. the great Massachusetts advo- cate and lawyer. It is said that being about to try mercantile case, he order ed q jury to be summoned, and among the names was that of Col. Thomas H. Perkins, the leading merchant of Boston in that day, and personal friend of Judge Parsons. When the officer made his return, he laid down a fifty-dollar bill before the Judge.
 "What is that?' said Parsons.
 "Col. Perkins says he is very busy. in- deed. to-day, and prefers to pay his fine-"
 ..Take this back to Col. Perkins, said the Judge. .'and tell him to come here at once; and if he refuses, bring him by force.
 When Col. Perkins appeared, the Judge looked sternly at him and said. What do you mean. sir. by sending money when you were summoned to sit on this iury?"
 Col Perkins replied: .I meant no dis respect to the Court. your Honor; but was extremely busy fitting out ship for the East Indies. and thought if l paid my fine might be excused"
 ''Fftting out q ship for the East Indies. sir!" she euted the Judge; ''and how hap pens it that you are able to fit out ship for the East Indies?"
 Your Honor. l do not understand you." II repeat, then. my. -luestion: How Is East Indiesr Ifyoud5 not know. I will tell you, It is because the laws of your country are properly Administered. If they were not. you would have no ships. Take your seat, sir. with the jury Janaes Freenian Clarke:

Justice Miller, in an address to the
Iowa Bar Association, said: You will
perhaps be surprised when / tell you that
the ablest lawyer of this or any other bar,
when he is for the first time appointed
judge, has to learn his trade, as much as
the mechanics apprentice. Ofcourse l
do not mean by this that he has to learn
the law. But what the apprenticed me-
chanic learns of his master is not the
mechanical forces, at least not mainly
that. What he does acquire in that ap-
premiership is skill in the use Of his
tools. This is precisely what I am say
ing of new judge. Let me illustrate
this from my own experience, for it is
closely related to training in a lawyer.
1t is in fact the same thing. am very
sure that it does not take me half the
time now that it did at first to eliminate
from complex case presented to me for
decision what is irrelevant or imma-
terial, and to ascertain the point OF con-
fiict necessary to be decided. And this
is equally true whether the contest be
one of law or fact, or both. by practlce
and attention 1 can listen to lawyer,
read a document offered in evidence, pass
with him lightly over the formal parts
of the instrument, and when he cones to
the vital matter, the few words, perhaps,
which alone touch the issue, catch their
precise meaning, and if l do not get that
clearly stop him there until do. tits
rare that need go over that instrument
again. So I have acquired, hardly know
how, except by practically training
the faculty of taking an immense record
of five hundred or one thousand pages,
and turning at once to the material parts,
whether of pleading, of evidence, or
whatever it may be, and in one-third the
time it took me when | first went on the
bench. l gather the materials for my
judgment without digesting mass
useless chaff.

Perhaps the overworked man does not
perform an immense amount of labor,
but he works after his strength has been
reduced. This is like keeping mill
going when the water is low, or when
the water in the dam is nearly out.
In the care of the muscles avoid colds
and rheumatisms. They make people
stiff and lame. They take away the
natural elasticity which gives SO much
pleasure, and substitute worn out
tired and exhausted feeling which bor-
ders on pain and is often more difficult
to bear. How very careful the owner
of fine horse is that it shall not take
cold! He knows that if it does it will
founder, and after this it will never be
a good stopper
This whole country is full of foundered
men and women, who are stiff and lame,
rheumatic, old in feeling, inelastic.
Most of them might have preserved their
elasticity to old age if they had taken
proper care of themselves. AS a rule
people do not bathe as much as they
should. The daily bath is quite as i'm
portant as any other duty. 1t requires
but few moments to take it, and when
followed by friction it fortifes the Skin
against cold.

The marriage of Ratu Joe, the young
est son of ex-King Cakobau, has tinge
of romance about it which does not
often occur in Fijian marriages. The
parents and friends of this young chief
were desirous that he should wed with
the daughter of Tul Suva, damsel Of
equally distinguished descent and parent
age with himself, and having a liberal
dowry of broad lands with which to en-
dow her spouse. The young lady, who,
we understand, was by no means averse
to the match, had been long resident at
Bau, and was being literally thrown at
Joe's head; but our Fijian "Romeo" re-
mained firm in his refusal, and, on mat
tiers being pushed to extremes, went pri-
vately, accompanied by the fair object of
his choice, maiden of comparatively
humble birth, to the house of the resi-
dent missionary and was married. Great
was the Indignation at Bau when the
cladestine marriage became known.
That such amagnate should marry with
out the usual solevu OF feast was not to
be tolerated; but ut.eventually Joe, who
is favorite, was spardoned by the old
man, and substantial feast, provided
by the latter, appeased the wrath of the
numerous friends and relatives, who
have now determined to leave these true
lovers to be happy if they can.-Sydney

The Lamoille news. (Hyde Park, Vt.) 1877-1881, 1879-08-13

DR.. Flint, of New York, has become
satisfied that a source of typhoid fever
exists in ice. The poison is not destroyed
or impaired by freezing, but is simply
held in suspension. The ice conceals
what it does not kill.
The Scientific Anertcaps, in speaking on
this subject, says: Whence comes our
ice supplyP Often from shallow reser-
voirs in the midst of neighborhoods of
large towns purposely made to receive
surface drainage from all around, under
the erroneous idea that no harm will
ensue, as freezing is supposed to purify
and render harmless what might other
wise be Objectionable. Great quantities
of ice are taken from canals. from creeks,
from stagnant ponds, and from streams
that are either the natural or artificial
recipients of surface drainage, of the
outporing of sewers, and of uncleanli-
ness from various sources. The danger
from ice taken from improper places is
not only from that which is drunk, but
from its use in refrigerators and preserv-
atories, where milk, butter, fruits, vege-
tables and meats are subject to its satur-
ating influence as it vaporizes. Several
instances have fallen under the doctors
observation where the disease, by the
most careful Investigation, could not be
traced to any other source. If we accept
as fact the statement positively made
in the London Lancet, that it never orig
mates de novo, but proceeds from spe-
cial and specific poison, which is capa'
BILE of diffusion to great extent, and
which preserves its noxious qualities fol
long period, even if buried for many
months, we cannot reject the hypothesis
of ice infection.
On this theory swamps and shallow
ponds, and streams in which drainage il
permitted to flow, and ponds drawn of
in summer, are not only dangerous to
the immediate neighborhood, but may
send disease and sickness wherever thu
ice utfrom them is transported. Thi'
is a new peril which can easily be guarded
against. See to it that the ice you use il
nothing but pure frozen living water.
