Jim Webster was up as a witness
yesterday. He was present when a
quarrel broke out in front of the
courthouse few days previous.
The judge said
"T'urn to the jury, Mr.. Witness,
and tell them what you know about
the fight. You must always adj
dress the jury"
"All right judge said Jim turn

Jury, Deacon SnOdgrass was pass

Jim.
The jury found Deacon Snodgrass
guilty without leaving their seats.
N. B.-There is reason to suppose
that Jim Webster had grudge
against Deacon Snodgrass, and
that's why he gave his testimony
in the way he did.

silver ornaments, corals, and precious stones,
were found in the houses of Pompeii Taken
from the retail shops were steelyards, bal

An "EFFEoTuAf TEMPERANcE LEcTURE."
"A young man called, In company with
several other gentlemen, upon young lady.
Her father was also present. to assist in enter
tanning the callers. He did not share his
daughters seruples against the use of spirit
uous drinks, for he had wine to offer. The
wine WAS poured out, and would have been
drunk, but the young lady asked:
"Did you call upon me, or upon papa ?"
Gallantry, il nothing else, compelled them
to answer, "We call upon you.''
"Then you viii please not drink wine l
have lemonade for my callers"
The father urged the guests to drink, and
they were undecided.
The young lady added, " Remember, If you
call upon me, then you drink lemonade but
If upon papa, why, in that case, have moth
ing to say"
The wine glasses were set down with their
contents untasted.
After leaving the house one of the party
exclaimed, "That is the most effectual tenn
perance lecture have ever heard"
The young man from whom these facts
were obtained, broke off at once from the
use of strong drink, and is now clergyman,
preaching temperance and religion. He still
holds in grateful remembrance the lady who
gracefully and resolutely gave him to under
stand that her callers could not drink wine.--

CONFINEMENT. There are thousands 30
extrayagant in their ideas of contentment 40
to imagine that it must consist In having
everything Id this world turn out the way
they wish--that they are to sit down in hap
piuess, and feel themselves so at ease on al
points as to desire nothing better and nothing
more. own there are instances OF some
who seem to pass through tho world as II all
their paths had been strswsd with rossbuds
Of delight but little experience will coma
vince us tits fatal expectation to go upon.
We are ''born to trouble = and we may de-
pend upon 1t, whilst we live in this world we
shall have it, though with intermissions that
is, in whatever state We are, we shall find q
mixture Of good and evil and therefore the
true way to contentment Is, to know how to
receive these certain vicssitudes of life, these
turns turns of good and evil so as neither to
be exalted by the one nor overthrown by the
other, but to bear ourselves toward every
thing which happens with such ease and in
difference of mind as to hazard as little as
may be. This is the true temperate climate
fitted for us by nature, and in which every
wise man would wish TO live.--St0rne.

A PRINCETON REM1NsUENoL.

Dr. e. 8. Porter, in som6 "reminiscences Of

the New York Christian Intelligsncer:
My first room mate was Henry Cobb Of
Mbrristown, N. j. He was young man Of
fine presence, pure morals and polite mans

speotability to others, he was slow to give or
take offence. He did not belong to the class
Of fighting men. Hence, perhaps the outs

each other at the table. On the opposite side,
and a member Of our mess, was young man
from Southern State, whose name with

Mr.. Cobb, it was seized by the impetuous
Southerncr. Cobb, however, retained it..
Straightway the yodng iirezeater arose, NUT
tered vengeance and left the refractory. Having
finished my breakfast left in advance Of
Cobb, and found, on going out and near the
doorway, the inccnssd student holding In his
hand bludgeon, and two or three Of his in
innate friends at his side. So soon as Cobb
stepped into the pathway, the bludgeon was
lifted over his head whichj however, 1t was
not allowed to touch, because pafrisd BY his
friends. A struggle then snsued, which had
not advanced far before dirk was drawn BY
the maddened murderer; and which he at
tempted to plunge into Mr.. Cobb's back. His
wrist, however, was caught just in time to
prevent o fatal blow, though the point of ths
dirk did make an incisior very hear the spinal
nerve. When the ARRAY was over; and the
offending student was about to enter the east

it closed by the persons of three students. one

boxing. The irate criminal drew pistol and
ordered Halsted and his friends out Of the
way. In an instatit his hand was caught, tho
pistol wrssted from him, and powerful blow
from HaIsted sent him rolling down thc
stone steps. Theti arose howls Of rage,
which were returned with loud defiance. A
challenge passed to have it out on the South
Campus-=which would have been tried but
for the sudden appearance of DR.. Mclean up
on the scene. Order was restored the
guilty student Was hurried out of town, and
soon after left the port Of New York for New
Orleans, where he belonged. This incident
occurred In 1s37-9S, but its influence led to
other collisions. The Northern students were
greatly incensed, but they kept their tempers
from violent expressions. Halsted, Throcka
morton and Pennington, with two or three
others, provided themselves with wooden
swords fastened to their bodies with little
cords, and arm-in-arm walked the streets in
Princeton, compelling few of the specisl
friends of the escaped student to give them

One of the most notable of many notable
novelties in new theater in New York will
be the so called " invisible y chairs. All the
seats will be constructed in such manner
that the occupants, at the close Of the per-
Torrance, will only have to touch spring
whom the framework will collapse and become
part and parcel of the floor. The advantages
of this device are too obvious to need demon
stration, as the Disappearance of the rows OF
seats would enable everybody to move in a
direct limo for the doors, and greatly simplify
all hitherto known methods ofexit. That the
idea is not altogether fanciful is perhaps
proven by the fact that the models have been
perfected and patented

And of his heart thou canst not see.
What looks to thy dim eyes . stain,
In Gods pure light may only be
A scar, brought from some weiI-worn 6eid,
Where thou wouldst only faint and yield.
The look, the air that frets thy sight
May be token, that below
The soul has closed In deadly fight
With some Internal, fery foe,
Whose glance would scorch thy smiling grace,
And cast thee shuddering on thy face
The fall thou darest to despise-
May be the angels slackened hand
Has suffered it, that he may rise
And take frmer, aurer stand;
Or, trusting less TO earthly things,
May henceforth learn to use his wings.
And judge none lost, but wait and see,
With hopeful pity, not disdain.
The depth of the abyss may be
The measure of the height Of pain,
And love and glory that may raise
Their soul 70 God In after days.
