Mississippi Secession.


JACKSON, Miss. October 20.-A sup
Elemental report of the legislative
committee relating to state bounda-
ries was taken up for consideration
this morning. The second and last
section thereof reads as follows:
"The legislature shall have the
power to consent to acquisition Of adj
ditioual territory by this state and to
make the same u part thereof, and
the legislature may consent to the
creation of another state or territory
to be formed in whole or in part out
of q portion of the state whenever
the consent of the congress of the
United States shall be given thereto,
and the legislature may solve dispu-
ted boundaries between this state
and its coterminous states whenever
such disputes arise"
This is regarded by the delegates
from the black counties as an intima-
ton that the white counties may at
some future time make an attempt to
secede from the black counties and
leave them to struggle alone with the
problem.

A STORY OF TOM MARSHALL.

How He Gu tiled an Old Pettifogger
An old but good story is told Of Ton
Marshall, the brilliant Kentucky
lawyer, who fourished in the time Of
Henry Clay. One day al old friend
Marshalls got into some sort Of
trouble and he was hauled up before
the nearest justice of the peace
Ia old fellow, who knew bare
ly enough to make out . peace
warrant. But what he lacked in legal
knowledge he made up in dignity
and we'll carried-out pomposity
Marshall took up the case for his
friend and astonished the Court with
his clear reasoning. He was very
young at the time, and the old law
yer who vas pitted against him
grew indignant at the effrontery OF
such youngster.
"Your honor" he said, after Tom
had finished his argument, Sin Kent,
267. you'll find that the Supreme
Court has held that the very self
same evidence when L have offered
is thoroughly proper, though this
young man from the city assumes to
deny it. 1 have practiced law before
he was born, and am thoroughly
conversant with the many intricate
points Involved in the matter at
issue. The Supreme Court has held,
/ saJ, that the evidence 1 have offered
is admissible, and in reference 1
quote you Kent. page 267."
Tom knew the old fellow had no
grounds fer his citation, and, in fact,
there was 70 such case before the
supreme court. He had not brought
his law books with him, nor did the
old Justice have any thing but the
statutes. 1t would not do to refute
his adversary without an authority,
for the Court would not believe him.
He could readily zee that the Court
was impressed with the shyster, and
that he himself was looked upon as
a presumptuous young shob.
After a moments thought he
frightened up, and, rising, he bowed
politely to the old lawyer and said
to the Court: "My learned old friend
Is correct in his citation. I know
that there was such a case before the
Supreme Court, for l myself was en-
gagged as counsel for the defense.
But he does not 60 far enough. The
case was appealed, and the Court of
Appeals reversed the decision of the
supreme Court, holding that the evil
dence introduced was clearly mad
missible.n
This cow d'etat on Toms part fair
~ Knocked the old legal light out.
He knew he had lied In his quotation,
but had depended on Toms ignor-
ance to let his alleged authority 60
through. But he was not prepared
for Toms ready wit. He fairly raved
as he jumped to his feet and cried out:
tits a lie. There never was such
a case before the supreme court and
| lied when / quoted it, and you lied
when you said that the court of ap.
peals had reversed the decision"
The old justice grew angry at being
imposed on, and not only did he de-
eide in Tom Marshall's favor, but
fined the old shyster for contempt.

Doctors.

Texas Siftings.
The world is not likely to run out
of doctors for a long time to come.
Besides the multitude that are run
out every year from the regular M. d.
manufactures there is q host of doc
tors springing up continually from
highways and byways. The growth
may almost be called spontaneous.
Look at the varieties. There are
old-school doctors, new-school doe
tors, and doctors without any school
ing worth speaking of. Pill doctors,
and doctors who are a "pill" in them
selves.
Doctors of laws and doctors of
mother-in-law, laying Oh of hands
doctors, and doctors who will take
anything they can lay their hands on;
magnetic doctors, and doctors with
no more magnetism in them than o
doughnut.
Then there is the Indian doctor who
never saw an Indian, though he
ought to, with the Indian in a scalp
ing mood. The herb doctor, and the
doctor In the sub-herbs. The electric
doctor and the doctor up to all man.
ner of tries.
Bleeding has gone out of fashion,
yet there are doctors who will bleed
you every opportunity they get. Cup.
ping is INDUCED In now and then, al.
though it is to the credit of the pro
fession that you rarely see q doctor in
his cups, with the exception of an oc.
casional hiccough.
In conclusion l will say. never call
q doctor unless you are satisfied YOU
hold q better hand than he does.
