recapitulate the details of their pretended

mention where they had the lost money hid

soon as the present trial was over, which they
were compelled to attend for appearance

county Jail, regularly committed to answer
the charge of perjury and conspiracy.
Mr.. Argus, blind as he appeared, had kept
his eyes pretty wide open while in Glenvile,

there was no getting out OF it.

hen which always wipes her feet on the mat
on entering the house, and if asked, ''Hov
do you get your living, biddy?" scratches
on the floor and looks at the queshoner to
see if the answer is correct This hen des-
pises the porcelain, wooden and chalk
