I went there to sec the thing work, see some fellows squirm, and the lawyers blow and look big at the witnesses.

O this law business, tlie fellow that gets into it gets into hot water seven timqsheated, its Fourth of duly times for the lawyers though, ami like big niUscovy drakes when it rains they spread out their wings, shake their heads, look very knowing and pleased. Whftt a confounded sight of quibbles and turns these lawyers have, too, you'll see one fellow jump up and object to this and that, then another one will obicct to first onn'.s objection, when the jiulgc comes ont from behind his Spectacles and upsets both.? "Well I'm satisfod of one thing, justice is a little lame in a court-house. Peoplo go to law to got justice, like some who go to tlic Springs fo? health. "Well they may, hut the idea strikes mo they will have to pay for it. What a "strange set these lawyers are, they'll got up and give something particular bringer, and next day give particular fits to what was praised up at first as the sunium bonum. Might as well go to a goats house for wool, as go to law for justice, for it ain't there ; the poor fellow when he gets in the law's meshes, like a house-fly in a spider's web, is soon fixed fast, and never gets away till his blood is all sucked out, bnt the rich like the big blue bottlo fly, break through and get out. | Every day you hear soiue follow talk about '< going to law, and what he'll do, now one I of these lawing men pleased me a good deal, ! it seems lie had a case in court, for he sat I close beside a lawver.

When lawyer 011 1 opposite side spoke, could sec tins fellow | wince, looked like he might have had lock1 jaw, and imagined himself a goner. Well his lawyer got up again and had a heap to say, s'o thrt fellow's countenance brightened up, and he'd shako his head, pat hi.< foot, and I was satisfied he thought it was dead, certain. The .Jury went out, and in less time than you could say " John Robinson, Ks(,.." came back, handed in a blue paper, and clerk road verdict for plaintiff, damages so much. You've seen a cabbage leaf after a three weeks drouth in summer, so you can imagine how that chap looked, ho wilted down, 1'iid the last time I saw him lie had a tumbler in his month and forty drops of a reddish looking fluid hiding itself under his calico vest, trying to sing " A glass is good, u ^luss is good, and a pi j e tot-moke in 1 tot weathor, Hut law is ba<l. and the lawyer ia worse, nod I'm n blamed stupid f?'lb>w," j No doulit that saiuo ft Mow thought before 1 h?; left home tlinf case was his'n, his lawyer said so, and nil he had to do was to sue. Now I reckon he's satisfied that law is law and court is court. I tliiuk a chap is a heap hotter off out of court than in it. I like the .Judge, and the jury, and the lawyers, I like their liquor and their cigars, but I don't like tho practice of court. 1 wouldn't like to go to court. I wouldn't like to go to court, for wlun a fellow get* in once, Heaven only knows when lic'Il get out.

The mother, now left alone in tlie wide world,'gave way to the most violent and unspeakable grief, she lite nothing and drank nothing, and wept fov tliree long nights without ceasing, calling constantly upon her child. The third night, as she thus sat overcome with Kufl'oring in the place where her child had died, her eyes bathed in tears and faint from grief, the door softly opened, and the mother started, for before her stood her departed ohihl.
