One day at Blair Athol, the Duke Of

Charles Stuart. ana had been given him

The Duke was exceedingly vexed, and
declared that Of all the articles

guests naturally became uncomfortable
and eyed one another suspiciously. No
person was present, however, who could
possibly be suspected and courtesy for

GOOD LAW.
An Old-FsshIoned New Hampshire
Judges Charge to n Jury.

Daniel Webster used sometimes to
read the conclusion of a charge by
Judge Dudley, a trader and farmer
a manuscript copy of which he had for
years in his desk. 1t was a treat to
hear him read it in pure and undefiied
English, as it doubtless came from
Judge Dudley's lips:
"You have heard, gentlemen OF the
jury, what has been said in this case by
the lawyers, the rascals but, no. will
not abuse them. 1t is their business
TO make good cause for their clients
they are paid for il. and they have done
in this case well enough; but you and
l, gentlemen, have something else
TO consider. They talk of law.
Why, gentlemen, il is not law
that we want, but Justice. They would
govern us by the common law OF Eng
land. Trust me, gentlemen, common
sense is a much safer guard for us,
the common sense of Raymond, Ep-
ping. Exeter and the other towns
which have sent US here TO try this case
between two of our neighbors. A clear
head and an honest heart are worth
more than all the law of all the law

No matter; it is good enough almost

justice between the parties. not by any
quirks of the Law out of Coke or
Blackstone. books that have never
read and never will. but by common
sense and by common honesty. as be-
tween man and man. That is our BUSH
ness, and the curse of God is upon US
if We neglect. or evade, or turn aside
from it. And now, Mr.. Sheriff. take
out the jury, aud you. M. Foreman,
do not keep US waiting with idle talk,
of which there has been too much al

PLAIN, common sense men, you need
not be ashamed. Ben. Perley POore.
