A Touching Court Scene.

When one of the prosecuting lawyers in the Hayden trial was cross-examining the wife of the accused clergyman, he thought it necessary ts ask her whether she would swear falsely to save hel hus- band from the gallows. A duty no less disagreeable fell on Monday to one of the lawyers connected with the hearing in the case of the Malley boys. In the course of his cross-examination of the mother of Jennie Cramer, MT. Blynden- burg asked many questions as to what had been the conduct of the dead girl. The mother, worried by the insinua- tions which the questions implied, lost self-control and accused him of heart lessly badgering her, knowing that she was heartbroken. Then, growing more excitedS the woman declared that the Malleys had murdered her daughter that everybody knew that they had forced poison down her throat. One of the young men, the report says, looked frightened, the other smiled, and the father of one O. them threw back his head and laughed. In view of the posi- tions of all the parties to the scene, 8 more sadly dramatic episode has rarely marked the proceedings in Justices Court.

An Esthetic Hermit.

The aged Herr Nahl, who died few weeks ago, and whose valuable gallery of pictures is said to be sold by auction in Cassel, was an eccentric and aesthetic hermit. For many years, contempo- rary tells us, he inhabited two large rooms, the walls of which were covered with the costly ancestral paintings which he had inherited from his father and grandfather. He slept on a bed in the middle of one of these rooms, and never allowed himself the luxury of stove, even in the coldest winter. According to his own story, he was never weary of study ing his genuine Raphael and his accred- tied Rubens. The late King of Han over was very anxious to obtain two o1 three of Nahls famous pictures, and during 8 visit to Cassel he sent his chamberlain to the hermit with really splendid offer for them. The owner al the time was so poor and wretched that he consented, with great wrench, tc part with one of the three, and received the money for it. He could not sleer for grief the whole of the following night, and early the next morning he appeared at the chamberlain's door, an6 said, with tears in his eyes
 "Herr Baron, I fret as if I had solo one of my children. I have had nt peace since the deed was done. Tn, king must have his money again. could not live if missed one of my pic lures from it's place on the wall."
 The king good-naturedly consented and, anxious to relieve the old man, pro posed that he should settle in Hanove and bring his pictures with him, prom ising him pension as custos, with tn understanding that he should bequeatl the collection to the king on payment o a stipulated sum. Nahl at first con sented to this arrangement, but informe' the king that he must continue to slee] in the midst of his pictures as long a he lived. This was point, however which the king would not concede The old man returned to his penury a Cassel, overjoyed at his release. H died, as he had lived, surrounded by hi I beloved paintings?
