were watching the slow motion of

assist him. Staggering to the side
of Mr.. Powell--the uueveness of his
walk was probably occasioped by
his spectacles havi1g been turned

feel the pulse of Justice by
requesting To see tie complaint.

Mrssrs. Tuska and Lindsay saw that
his services were no longer engaged
against them, they requested his as.
sistance on the part Of the defense,
which request was promptly acced
ed to, and seating himself beside
them, his air of profound wisdom
aud earnest a.teution added greatly
to the dignity of the array of couu-
sci for the defendant.
