Cushing and Choate.
the Albany Law Journal.

From the Albany Law Journal.
The late Caleb Gushing and Choate,
at a trial where they represented differ
ent sides, were both anxious for AN ad-
journment. As this was an unusual
thing for either, after the adjournment,
Mr.. Gerrish, a friend, asked Choate the
reason. This is his account: Said L.
show is it that you were ready for a
continuance to-dayp 1t is little odd
Of you" Choate replied, sob, 1 am a
little pressed with business, and can af-
ford to let this case stand over" Said
1, "Choate, this is sheer nonsense. Ill
tell you what the matter is. You are
afraid of Cushing" $50 l am,'' was
the reply, land [ am not ashamed to
W it, either" swell, WELL" said 1;
''this is pretty good. The idea of Ru-
fus Choate being frightened What on
earth do you fear in Cushingp" Mr..
Gerrish, l will tell you. 1 am afraid of
his overwhelming knowledge of the
law" In the afternoon Cushing came
into the Office. 1 went for him at once.
''Caleb, what was the matter to-dayp
Why didn't you insist on trying that
casep" "Ohl" he replied; ''the wealth.
er is warm, and we have much to at
tend to, and l didn't care to hurry
matters" Snow, Cushing, be honest:
were you not Il little afraid of Choate?"
swell, Gerrish, to be candid about it, l
a Are you satisfied now?" then
inquired what he feared Choate for.
''Do you think, " said l, .'that he knows
any more law than you dop" mo, sir,
1 DON'T" was the answer; ''but I'm
afraid of the mans influence with a ju-
ry, right or wrong"

The report from Gloucester, Mass, OF
the loss Of lives and tonnage engaged in
the sea fisheries at that port, the past
year, is truly appalling; 24O lives were
sacrificed, SO women were widowed, and
PIG children rendered fatherless, while,
one-tenth of the tonnage was destroyed,
The risk to life and property is SO over
whelmingly great, that it would be sup
posed the ranks of the departed would be
hard to fill, yet such is the competing
strife for maintenance in those thickly-
settled regions, and SO callous become
the fears of men engaged in a life-work of
danger, that there are always plenty to
fill the breach We are apt to wonder
that villages are built at the feet of gla-
ciers or u pom the crater-edges of volca-
noes, yet the sublime indifference of those
peoples to the annually-recurring dangers
of annihilation, is not more a matter OF
surprise than the intrepidity of the fisher
men Of the Atlantic coast.

The irrepressible Springer, in an in
terview with The New York World re-
preventative, declares that a democratic
victory in 1880 hangs on New York, add
ing that he was almost certain that nc
measure looking to the retirement of
greenbacks or depriving them Of their
legal tender quality, can be passed
through both houses of congress. The
World comes back in this wise: owe
tell Mr.. Springer and his friends, plainly,
that should Senator Bayard's resolution
be defeated by democratic votes, the dem
ocratic party in New York will be snow
ed under in 1880 by 100000 majority
for Grant, who at the eleventh hour
faced the west and stood for honest
money in 1874, and made republican vic
tories in 1879 possible.

the effect of which is to place soldiers and

text of the bill is as follows:
That from and after the passage of this
act even sections within the limits of any
grant of public lands to any railroad com
pany or to any military road, shall he
open to settlers under the Homestead laws
to the extent Of 100 acres to each settler,
and any person who has under existing
laws, taken homestead on any even sec
ton within the limits of any railroad or
military road land grant, and who, by ex-
listing laws, shall have been restricted to
eighty acres, may enter under the Home
stead laws an additional eighty acres ad-
joining the land embraced in his original

vation required by law. Provided, that

There is a simple pathway out from all
this bitterness. There is no need that we
should wander forty years in the wilder
ness of passion and hate. There is no
need that all should die who left Egypt
before we enter Canaan. In one word:
"We'll have no more midnight whippings
no more White-Leaguers, no more tissue
ballots inside the ballot-box, no more shot
guns in politics. Give us only this: a
free vote and a honest count, and the cry
of sectionalism will forever cease In cur
Northern politics. Deny us this, and the
North will grow each year more and more
solid by the ever increasing and more re-
solute majorities. HIS Speach at

FATAL FIRE.-ROCHESTER, n. Y,
December 10.-Early this morning Mrs.
Tuttle, wife of the toll-gate keeper, mile
west of the city limits, was awakened by
neighbors, who informed her that the
house was on fire. With great presence
of mind she tore out the window of her
room and threw her two children-Miles
Arthur, aged years, and her little girl,
May, aged 13 months-to the spectators
below, who caught them safely. Then
she dropped herself, and was also receiv-
ed all right. In the meantime her hus-
band, Miles Tuttle, who had also been
awakened, and who pounded on the stairs
door to awaken his wife, was snffocated,
and, falling to the floor before he could
reach door or window, was not able to
get out. With him perished his little
daughter Lucy, years old. The child
slept with him below stairs. The
Rochester fire department was summoned
but could do nothing, for there was no
water. When the fire had died down
the bodies of Mr. Tuttle and the little
girl were taken out, but entirely unrecog-
nizable. Mr.. Tuttle was 48 years old
He married his wife in Illinois, and Was
highly thought Of He was local Post
master, the Gates Post Office being in the
house. 1t is not known how the fire on
ginated.
