ANegroe,s Eloqnence.

At Waxahachie, during the last term
of the Ellis county district court, a. col
Ored man was indicted for entering into
a conspiracy to murder. He was brought
to trial, the evidence was strong, and,
IN spite of the good fight made in his de-
tense byhis attorney, .he was convicted.
A motion for new trial was made, and
the Judge, seeing that no error of the
law was made, and believing the evil
dence was sufficient, very promptly over
ruled the motion. When the prison ers
were brought in to be sentenced, this
negro was among them. When asked
if he had anything to say why sentence
should not be passed upon him he said
he knew anything he might say would
have no weight with the court, as all
the forms of law had been complied with
and he must go to the penitentiary, but
he had something to say for the benefit
of his cOlOred friends, and, with the per-
mission of the court, he would make a
| few remarks. The court told him that
he would listen. The negro started off
slowly and deliberately, reviewing the
testimony, showing the Inconsistencies
of witnesses statements, and then car
ried away with the idea of the wrong
done him, he burst forth in strain of
eIOduence seldom heard. When he sat
down the Judge said: sam, L thought
you guilty; don't believe SO now, and
will Set aside the judgment Overruling
vonr motion for a. new trial. and give
Won another chance" So elOquently had
the negro presented his case that the
conntry attorney dismissed the case, and
the negro walked out of the court room
a free man. This is the first case, In
Texas. at least, where man brought up
TO be sentenced was ever turned loose.
Every person present says that the effort
was the finest one ever heard. Inc ue,

SANTA CLAUS.

Twas colder than Zero on Christmas eve night,
When far Off in Lapland, the great Northern
Light"
In streams OF wild beauty illumined the skies,
Like JOY when it sparkles from innocenteyes.
Old Santa seeing the hour at hand,
When children get sleepy all over the land,
Put eight tiny reindeer to one little sleigh,
And selling bundle, he started away
Far over the mountain, and over the snow,
Light as feather and swift as roe.
At last on our chimney he drew up his team
And stole out as silent and soft as dream.
Lest the ring of his footsteps on top of the house
The children all sleeping snug as mouse,
Might wake up and catch him with pockets and hat
Stuffed full of nice candy. and much more than
that
Nuts, raisins and apples, and all sorts of toys,
As light as feather he came down the fiue,
That seems to grow wider to let him get through
And there in a corner all ranged in row,
Were four little stockings as white as the snow.
He smiled when he saw them, and winked his old
eye,
Then waited moment, and passed them all by,
To peep through the curtains of two little beds,
Where, wrapped in sweet slumber, lay four little
heads.
And he read in the faces of each little pair,
Who'd acted the wisest throughout the past year
If one had been naughty and told white Alb
Another got angry and tore up her bib
III he had his parents neglected tomind,
Or she to her playmates had been rude or unkind
From them he'd have taken to give to the rest
For" Santa Claus" always gives most to the best.
But these little fellows, ii seems, had done we'll
For how much he gave them l can hardly tell
To one he gave candy, drum and an apple,
Another pony-a beautiful dappe-
Birds, baskets and does, with pretty black curls,
Fruits, flowers and ribbons he left for the girls
If either was sighted cannot tell which,
For all received something and no one switch.
Good night, little darlngs. old Santa then said,
As shaking with laughter he turned from the bed,
And mounting the chimney he started to go,
Far over the mountain and over the snow.

One of the commission houses on Wood
bridge street has q horse which was the ter
ror of every pedestrian who got within three
feet of his head. The animal has teeth like
shark, and up to few days ago he'd bite
everything within reach except pile of
grindstones. Whipping had no effect, and he
would get rid of muzzles as fast as they were
put on. The firm had paid out considerable
money to settle for his bites, and was won
dering what they could sell him for, when
along came man who guaranteed cure for
So. He was told to go to work, and his first
move was to get an old suit of clothes and
stuff it with straw The horse was driven
down the street, and the suit tied to hitch
ing post, back to the street. A full pound of
Cayenne pepper wassthen rubbed into and
sprinkled over the garments and the straw
sluffing, and the joke was ready.
The horse came jogging back, and the
driver left him standing within six feet Of the
man of straw. The old biter's eyes had
twinkle as he saw fine chance to use his
teeth, and as soon as left alone he began edg-
ing toward the post. When ready for bust
ness he made sudden lunge and caught the
imam" by the shoulder. That old horse
meant wickedness, but he had a surprise in
store for him. AS he lifted the figure off its
feet and gave it shake it fell apart, and his
mouth, nose and eyes were filled with the
smarting powder. Great tears rolled down
his long nose, he sneezed and snorted and
coughed, and he was just as chagrined at the
general laugh on him as man would have
been. He backed away from the remnants,
opened his mouth to cool it, and hung his
head in shame. He did not cease weeping
for half day, but when he got so that he
could look the public square in the face he
was changed horse. Anybody can pull his
ears or rub his nose now with impunity. In
fact, he courts caresses where he defied them,
and on the approach of a stranger will shut
his eyes and mouth as if fearful of another
dose-Detroit Free Press

Christmas time That man must be mis-.
anthrope indeed, in whose breast something
like Jovial feeling is not roused-in whose
mind some pleasant associations are not
wakened-by the recurrence of Christmas -
There are people who will tell you that
Christmas is not to them what it used to be
that each succeeding Christmas has found
some cherished hope or happy prospect of
the year before, dimmed or passed away that
the present only serves to remind them of re-
duced circumstances and straitened incomes
of the feasts they once bestowed on hollow
friends, and of the cold looks that meet them
now, in adversely and misfortune. Never
heed such dismal "reminiscences. There are
few men who have lived long enough in the
world, who cannot call up such thoughts any
day in the year. Then do not select the mer-
rest of the three hundred and sixty.fve for
your doleful recollections \ Look
on the merry faces of your children Of you
have any as they sit round the fire. One lit
tic seat may be empty; one slight form that
gladdened the fathers heart, and reused the
mothers pride to look upon, may not be
there Dwell not upon the past think not
that one short year ago, the fair child now
resolving into dust. sat before you, with the
bloom Of health upon its cheek, and the
gayety of infancy in its joyous eye. Reflect
upon your present blessings-of which every
man has many-not on your past misfor-
tunes, of which all men have some.
Our life on it, but your Christmas shall
be merry, and your new-year happy one.
Who can be insensiblc to the outpourings
of good feeling, and the honest interchange of
atfectionate attachment, which abound at this
season of the year? A Christmas family
party! We know nothing in nature more
delightful! There seems a magic in the very
name of Christmas. Petty jcalousies and
discords are forgotten; social feelings are
awakened in bosoms to which they have long
been strangers; father and son, or brother
and sister, who have met and passed with
averted gaze, or look Of cold recognition,
for months before, proffer and return the
cordial embrace, and bury their past animosi-
tics in their present happiness. Kindly hearts
that have yearned towards each other, but
have been withheld by false notions of pride
and selfdignity, are again reunited, and all
is kindness and benevolence! Would that
Christmas lasted the whole year through las
it OUGHT and that the prejudices and passions
which defom our better nature were never
called into action among those to whom they
should ever be strangers !-Chdrles Dickens
