Au Astonished Court.
A few days "ago, says the New
Orleans Picayune, an old lady and
a young one found themselves in
court, charged with disturbing the
" peace. The officer's statemeut was
clearly given, and certainly dis
closed an equal culpability in both.
It was evident, however, that the
Court inclined to a favorable judg-
! irient to the youngest,and the scales
of Justice were rapidly tipping in
her favor.
"Whvdid you abuse this Youn
lady?" the magistrate demanded
of the old dame.
" I had a right to," was the calm
reply. -
"What was she doinsr?"
" Keeping company with a Tory
improver character."
" And what is that to you ?"
" She 's my daughter."
" Oh, indeed ; and you think the
person was an improper character.
lo you ?"
"I do, sir."
" Do you know who he was ?"
" I don't know his name ; I've
seen him frequently, prowling a-
rounu alter niirht.
And then, as if actuated by a
sudden irnpul?e,the old lady adjust
ed her spectacles, peered cautious
ly at the court from under her great
sun-bonnet, and then exclaimed :
" Good lack ! good lack ! Why,
you're the man !"
"3fe! me! exclaimed the aston-
ished
Court.
3Ie! woman, did
von sav me
Again the spectacles were ad
justed, and the curious ,gaze pro
longed, while the old lady nodded
her head at intervals.
" Yes, yes, it's the same ugly
face. I'm sure of it ; but I'll for
give you this time; I'll forgive
you." " And the old ladv hobbled
away, leaving the Court gapping
with astonishment, and unable to
interpose an objection to her de
parture. A Touching Stoiiy. The Hon.
Alexander I T. Stephens, of Geor
gia, in a recent address, at a meet
ing at Alexandria, for the Orphan
Asylum and Free School of that
city, related the following inci
dent: ': A poor little boy, on a cold
itiiilit, with no home or roof to
shelt er his head, no paternal guar
dian or guide to protect or direct
. him on his way, reached, at night
fall, the home of a wealthy farmer,
who took him in; and fed him, and
tscnt him on his way with his bless
ing. These kind attentions cheered
his heart, and inspired him with
fresh courage to battle with the
obstacles of life. Years rolled
round. Providence led him on,
and he reached the legal profession.
His host had died. The cormo
: rants that prey on the substance of
man had formed a conspiracy to
get from the widow her estates
She sent for the nearest counsel, to
commit her cause to him, and that
counsel proved to be the orphan
boy long before welcomed and en
tertained by her deceased hus
Tand. The stimulus of a warm
and tenacious gratitude was now
added to the ordinary motives con
nected with the profession. He
undertook her cause with a will
not to be resisted; he gained -it;
the widow's estates were secured
to her in perpetuity, and," Mr.
Stevens added, with an emphasis
f emotion that sent an electric
thrill throughout the house, " that
boy stands before you." lexas

GEOLOGY AT DISCOUNT
The geologistj if he be fairly in
earnest, is far too tired: after his
day's work, to trouble himself
about the aristocratic air of his
quarters; anil, besides, generally
manages to put his outer man into
so unhealthy , a condition, that a
grand hotel would have some
scruples in taking him in. Profes
sor Sedgwick, after a hard morn
ing's work, betook himself to a
village inn for a lunch of bread
and cheese. When he asked what
he had to pay, he was told " Four
pence !" He could not avoid re
marking on the smallness of the
charge. "Ah, sir!" said the land
lady' " I would ask cightpence of
any one else; but I only ask four
pence from you,- for I see you have
seen better days." At another
time, a lady stopped by the road
side, where he was working, made
some inquiries, ana gave mm a
shilling, because, his answers were
so intelligent for his station. He
met the same lady at dinner, next
day, to her great astonishment. A
well-known geologist, long secreta
ry to the Geological Society, was
once taken up, while at his voca
tion, and dragged to the Ibistol
Asylum for an escaped lunatic.
On another occasion, tired, and
with his pockets full of the day's
treasures, he mounted a stage
coach, and fell fast asleep. Waking
at his journey's end, he was horri
fied to find his pockets as empty as
when he set out. An old woman,
who sat beside him, feeling the j
pockets full of stones, took him
for a madman, who had loaded !
himself, more effectually to secure!

One of the observers sent out to
Kentucky to observe the late eclipse
of the sun, requested an old negro
living near his observatory to watch
carefully his big Mock of hens, for
at 4.45 they would go to roost. Af

evidently much excited :
" How was it V" said the doctor.

A little urchin seven or eight
years old, in a school where a Miss
Hlodgett was teaching, composed
the following- and wrote it on his
slate at prayer time, to the great
amusement of the'bovs:
mi (
"A little mouse ran up the stairs,
To hear Miss Blodj;ett sty her prayers."
The teacher discovered the rhyme,
and called out the culprit. For a
punishment she gave him his choice
to make another rhyme in five min
utes, cr be caned. So, after think
ing and blinking, and scratching
his head till his time was nearly
out, and the teacher was lifting the
cane in a threatening manner, at
the last moment he exclaimed:
" Here I stand, before Miss Blodgett,
She's going to strike, and I'm going to
dodge it."
The little urchin saved-his whip
ping. A correspondent who used to
live close to the residence of the late
Tom Moore, sends us the following
anecdote: "Once driving home
to Chippenham from Devizes, I
gave an old lady a lift in the trap;
and in conversation I asked her if
she saw much of Tom Moore in her
village, Avhen he was alive. "Tom
Moore, sir? Tom Moore?" said
she. "Oh, you mean Mr. Moore.
Mrs. Moore was a very kind lady,
but Mr. Moore, he used" to write all

A Singular Disease. A curi

coast of Africa, especially on the
Gaboon, which consists in an "Ir
resistible inclination to sleep.. Xo
pain seems to be experienced, but
the patient stumbles readily, his
step is tottering, a sense of feeling
seems to be wanting, and objects
used asf support are grasped very
unsteadily. The consciousness does
not seem, to be diminished, and the
breathings and digestion are nor
mal. When the patient is awaken
ed he returns t again into a deep
sleep in a very' short time. The
disease does not yield to any rem
edies, and generally ends in death.
