Summing IL In

From the London Chronicle.
A remarkably brief and effective sum-
ming up was once quoted by Lord
James in an afternoon speech.
IL WAS delivered by an Irish Judge
trying man for pig stealing, The evi-
denee of his guilt was conclusive, but
the prisoner insisted on calling u num-
Der of Witnesses who testified most en-
phatlcally 10 his general good character.
After hearing their evidence and the
counsels speeches, the Judge remarked:
Gentlemen of tho jury, I think that the
only conclusion you can arrive at Is
that the pig was stolen by the prisoner
and that he Is the most amiable man in
the country

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York Juno Z,--Csblss we're slight
ly lower than expected and on this and
the excellent weather conditions and pros
poets of selling pressure reduced
prices at the opening.
Trading was OF the weekend sort and
trade reports did not favor higher prices
but the market gradually regaired most
Of tho decline showing unusual stsadiness.
The trade feels that prices cannot well
be held for long under the good prospects
for tho crop. but watches tina weather
with some uncertainty OF its continuance.
Spot houses appear favorably disposed
to present prices.
