Yours, respect fully, K. M. BltA YTOX, Collector. People who enjoy the ili coinliturc ol law}ere?and who docs nol ??will laugh over this incident: 'I call up on you,' said a lawyer to witness, 'to slate distinctly upon what authority you arc prepared to swear to the mare's age?' 'Upon wha t authority ?' said the hostler, interrogatively, 'You are to reply, and not to repeat the questions put to you ' 'J doosn'l consider a .man's bound to auswer a question afore he's time to turn it in his luiud.', 'Nothing can bo more simple, sir, than the question I put I again repeat it, upon what authori ty do you swear to tho animal's age?' 'The best authoritv, responded he grtiJlly. 'Then why such evasion ? Why not state it atonoo.?' , 'Well, thcu^Jf y.Qu must have?' 'Mu^tl 1 will have it !' vociferated thdcounsel or, inteiy-qgatiug tho w laesj. 'Well, then/ iPyou must and will have it,' rejoined the hostler, with imperturb able orayitv 'Whv, Lljen.
