Tweed in his prjs- j on at Biackwell's Island, flays: While standing in the corrider of one of the wings the cell occupied by Tweed when he arrived in the place was pointed out by the Warden. While glancing up and down the long corrider the reporter saw 1 4*WA?Y> O U Iarg-e iunn iivm cvi cell. Keeper MacDonald was with; the man. The reporter had a lull view of him. It was William M. Tweed. lie walked quickly along the balcony and recognized the reporter. Ilis face was flushed, and he seemed much fleshier than when he flrst bccam.e an inmate of the institution. It was evident, however, that his mental anguish is great, and that he feels his degradation terribly. His hair is very short and his face smooth. His hair is very short and his face smooth. lie wore brown pantaloons, vest and short coat, but with the disguise which would be complete in many others, no one who had ever seen him would have failed to recognize the man who once carried New York iu his pocket. He hurried up the 6taircase to the hospital. He had been visiting a sick convict in his cell and administering medicine to him. . Dr Partridge, who is in charge of the prison hospital, has never seen a more faithful orderly in the] , place than Tweed. The ex-Boss I ?-~/-.I- ovnri' mnrnin<r iluses ill; 01A V v-iu^rv. &tvij iuv>??^ and attends to the wants of his patients. There are seventeen convicts on the sick list in the hospital. Those who arc able to sit up eat at the same table with Tweedjmd the head orderly. Tweed has a place at the head of the table and his superior officer at the foot. All fare alike, and the wealthy orderly never complains. He is as much in earnest and as thorough iu his work as he was in other and brighter days when he was Tammany's chieftain, and uone of the sulierers in his care are neglected by him. It is astonishing, the keepers say, to see how active he is. When a convict is carried in with a crushed foot or injured in any way'Tweed loses 'ho time inhttending to him. lie carries a little book which contains.the names of the patients and the physician's instructions about the time when medicine must be given them or when a bandage or ? 1 ~~i.^1\a *arr?airn/1 on/I nfli.l piilSlUl' bUUlUU UC iv.uiu> vu II1IU v.11 applied. Thus "John Smith, two pills ever}' two hours," is never forgotten, and Tweed's usefulness is apparent to all. Some think lie works so incessantly to kill time, but he seems to take a wonderful interest in every one in the hospital, and frequently in the middle of the night arises "to attend to the wants of a poor, suffering wretch. As the army of prisoners in the corridors sat closely together at the narrow wooden tables eating their cold roast beef, soup, and bread, William M. Tweed, whose saddened countenance plainly showed his misery,.took his seat at the head of the plain table in the hospital, and tried to look cheerful as he and his fellow suffering convicts ate their scanty meal. ?o? BUSINESS LAW. The following brief recapitulation of business law is worth a careful preservation, as it contains the essence of a large amount of legal verbiage : It is not legally necessary, [to say on a note' for value received." A note uiado on Sunday is void. Contracts made on Sunday cannot be enforced. A note made by a minor is voidable. A contract made with a lunatic is void. A note obtained by fraud, or from a person in a state of intoxication, - cannot be collected. If a note is lost or stolen, it does not release the maker; ho must pay it if the consideration for which it was given can bo proven. ' An endorser of a note is exempt from liability if not 6crved with a notice of dishonor within twenty four hours from its non-payment Notes bear interest only when eo stated.*' Principals are responsible for the acts'of th<5if* agents. Each individual in a partnership is responsible for the whole amount of the debts of the firm. r _ p * i? 1 ?? iguyiuuue ui mu mw ujujunv-o uu one. " It is a fraud to conceal a fraud. The law compels no one to do impossibilities. * An agreement without consideration is void. Signatures made with a lead pcncil arc good in law. A rcccipt for money is not always conclusive. The acts of one partner bind all the rest.

Old Sqire Gerisb, of Newberryport, Mass., is a genial eoul who has a host of legal reminiscences. An intimate friend of Webster, Edwart Everett and Rufus Choate, aud a law partner of Caleb Gushing, he had a rare opportunity of collecting anecdotes and details that are very interesting now. While connected with Cushing, a i/v Ti.Vmn tlmao twn Titans. LI I lie V/UIilV/ ?t UV/li biavuxs v It V - ? 7 Gushing and Choate, were on opposite sides in an opposite suit. On the day when the ease was called the court room was crowded. A battle between such men was a novelty, even in that epoch of brains. To the amazement of judge, jury and spectators, both v ushing and Choate were somewhat anxious for a "continuance"? in other words, for a postponement of trial. As a usual thing, both gentlemeu were always anxious to A'/v?A a n artoa a I ?*i n 1 Kair\/V 111 CI fitfltP 1A-JIUC Oj taov; iu tLKU) ?;viuc^ www of "chrojiic preparation," as Webster once said in speaking of Choate. In going out ot Court, says Mr. Gerrish, I met Choate and said "IIow is it that you were ready for a continuance to-day ? It is a little odd of you." Choate replied: "Oh, I am a little pressed with business, and can afford to let this case stand over ?" Said I, "Choate, this is sheer nonsense. I'll tell you what the matter is. You are afraid of Gushing." "So I am," was the reply. "And I am not ashamed to own it either.' "Well, well," said I, "this is pretty good. The idea of Iiufus Choate being frightened. What on earth do you fear in Cushing?" "Mr. Gerrish, I will tell you. I am afraid of his overwhelming knowledge of the law." In the afternoon Cushing came into the office. I went for him at once. "Caleb, what was the matter to-day; why don't you insist on trying that case ?" J'Oh,/ he replied, "the weather is warm and we have much to attend to, and I didn't care to hurry matters." "Now Cushing, be honest; were you not a little afraid of Clioate?" "Well, Gerrish, to be candid about the matter, I was. Are you satisfied now ?" I then inquired what lie feared Choate for. "Do you think," said I, "that he knows any more law than you do?" "Xo, sir, I"' don'tv" was the answer; "but I'm afraid of the rascal's infernal influence with a jury, right or wrong." And there it was. The two men had been' so'often associated that each know the other's strong points !inrl felf timid. *?? .Useful Proverbs. tj Waste nothing?neith'er time, money, nor tnlcnt. Always tell the truth;you will find it easier than lying. Ho who gives a trifle meanly is far meatier than the trifle. A. heart full of graco is better than a heart full of notions. Wen looking at the faults of women should shut their eyes. If we seize too hastily, wo ma}* have to drop as hastily. Experience is a torch lighted in the ashes of our delusions. Prosperity is a blessing to the good, but a curso to the evil. Let everything have its place and every business iis place. Better bo upright wi'.h poverty than be wicked with plenty. The tenderest heart loves best the bold and courageous one. lie who laughs at cruelty sets his heel on the neck of religion. Time novcr sits heavily upon us but when it is badly employed. Whatever you dislike in another take care to correct in yourself. Jiesolve to perform what you ought and perform what you renolvc. The stupid great man, like a clown, gets up only to tumble down. ? Pearls by the Wayside.?A Christian traveler tells us that he saw the following admonition printed on a folio sheet in an inn in Savho, and it was found, he learned, in every house in the district* "Understand well Mie force of the words?a God,ixmommt, an eternity? a God who sees you; a moment which flies from you ; an eternity which awaits youa God whom you serve so ill ; a moment of which you so little profit; an eternity which you hazard'so rashly." Christianity is not a theory, or a speculation, but a life; not a philosophy ot life, but a life of a living process. Try it. It has been eighteen hundred years in existence and has one individual left a record of the following: "I tried it; and it did liof answer. I made the experiment faithfully according to the directions; and the result has been a conviction of my owu credulity.'? '? ! Charming is that faculty of f,hc human mind which enables one' to drop into poetry like Mr. Wegg upon any occasion, no malter how prosaic, which throws a soft light of romance around bread and cheese, and irradiates the common place soul with beauty. Such is the faculty possessed by a noble poet of Chioago, who was recently informed that Madame Nilsson had thoughtfully built a shelter for her co ws on her land at Peoria. Mindful of the catastrophe which led to the destruction of his nativo city, he immediately burst into this wild and beautiful frenzy of verse : "Christine, Christine, thy milking do the morn find ove between, and not by tho dim and religious light of the fitful kerosene. For tho cow may plunge, and tho lamp explode, and the firefiend ride the gale, and skriek the kDcll of the burning town in the glow of the molten pail 1" Winter salutation ? hail, fellow, well met.

The tool sled, which I will first describe, has been frequently recommended as exceedingly convenient to transport plows and harrows to and from the field, to move barrels of cider or vinegar, or any such thing. As a stone boat I fiud it of greater use than the stone boat itself, for it is strong enough to carry all the small stones that can be loaded upon it. It is made - - i __ v:_i of two 3x4 men ouk or mctwi v sticks, four feet long, hewed to sled runner points at one end; upon these, crosswise, two-inch planks three feet long are pinned with wooded pins; and upon these, at the front and sides, a two inch oak rave is nailed. It is best to have the whole thing of hard wood, but it makes it a little heavy. On a farm of fifty acres not more than one may be needed, but the}' are so easily made that on a farm of one or two hundred acres, employing two or three pairs of horses, two or three ot different sizes and strength will be found useful. They are drawn by chains, or better, by an iron rod bent like the bale of a turnpike scoop. The next sled I describe is useful both in Winter and Summer for ' .. ?j. ?'.""..n /-?! ilnimr nnv IlilU II OU t lllilll U I vi ^ such work. Its dimensions may vary indefinitely, and it raaj bo drawn by oxen or horses. it is rigged with a pole or with thrill? for a single horse. The runnerare 2? inch plank, 8 feet long. These are united by cross of the same material let in to the runners. Upon these the bottom of incli boards is nailed, with a square twoinch around the front and sides. Fitted to this, inside the raves, if the box. This made of four 12inch boards, the long ones cleated at each and.

The load? are not so great as we could takt on a wagon were the wheeling good, but it "the way can be laid over grass, or if there is a little snow the amount of manure which a pair of horses will haul upon the sled a short distance, and on comparatively level ground, is fully equal to what they would haul on a. wsig011. The sled is easily rigged for carrying wood or fodder, and if it be used upon the road much it would be well to pin on shoes oJ hickory, which, if bent when green can be made to turn up in front tc rhr> tons of the runners. 2sevei ~ ?r' - ? put iron sbocs npon a sled, the} spoil it tor running upon bare ground. 4 4^ ? Cap.e of Plants.?Some person: think they accomplish a good wort when they wrap their roses ant tender plants very carefully ii straight straw, putting on twice a.( much as is necessary "to keep then warm." Plants will keep thorn selves warm without any such inju dieious treatment. AN'hat tli'tM need, and must have, is protcetioi from the sun's rays during Winter to prevent sudden change, that tor rible enemy of our tender plants The system of wrapping in straw drawn tightly from top to bottom is about as bad as to give no pro tection at all. Plants are not in sects, needing a 'chrysalis during the winter; neither arc they to be smothered up under great banks ol manure.

Best of all, scatter a lew leaves, and over them place a fewevergreen boughs. Scarcely any even of the so-called hardy plants but would be benelitted by sonic some such sensible protection during the winter months. ?o? Penalty of Gallantry.?A story is told of a prominent politician vvhich now tor the first time finds its way into type. Some years ago this gentleman and Senator M were in New York, and about to embark to Albany on the Drew. An old German emigrant woman loaded down with baggage, happened to reach the gangplank at the same time. The noise and confusion ot the scene as the boat wa> about to start bewildered her. Our political friend, a gallant man, t;? king in#the state of afiairs at a glance, immediately relieved her ol the load and requested Senator M^rr- to give her his arm. The upper deck was crowded with people, many whom recognized tlx gentleman in question. Mr. P? then marched them the wliolt length of the boat, gracefully waving bis hand, and exelaimin?r; "Clear the way! Make room for the bridal party \"^-Harper's May a zinc.
