that only two of the forty had been personally served
with subpoenas.
Judge MARITIME, in discharging the Jurors for the

A Little Courtesy.

The other day gentleman entered one of
the largest stores of this city in pursuit of an
article the price of which he knew would
scarcely exceed the cost ofpostage on an
ounce letter. The fact of its insignificance
made it hard to find. One clerk after anoh-
or was enlisted in the search, till finally they
were Joined by the proprietor before success
crowned their efforts. Somewhat mortified
at the amount of trouble he had caused, the
customer began to apologize, when he was
sienced by the proprietor with, MY friend,
it was no trouble; it was business. We have
experienced fully as much pleasure in finding
that for you as you have in receiving it. If
you insist upon calling this trouble, please
remember that we like to be troubled
That merchant made an investment by his
courtesy. He laid up treasure where moth
and rust doth not corrupt, and it wasn't laid
up in Heaven, either. He secured the pat
ronage ola man, though he did not know it,,
who sometimes makes purchases that are
worth the while. Without intending it, he
cast some bread upon the waters. HE ex-
perience is liable to be the experience of any
man who cullivates the amenities rather than
the asperities even though it were not so,
though the reward does not come back IN
pounds, shillings and pence, still the practice
ofamenities pays. 1t cultivates an even tenn

the amenities of life is its own reward.-C,n-
