The Devil and his Lawyer. Thodcyii em up to tue car!h one day, And to u c house wended his way ? Just, as an attorney, with a very grave face, Was proccediug lo argue "the poiiilsidi the ease." Now u lawyer, His Majesty never had seen, For in his dominions none ever had been; And lie fell very angry, the reason t<> know Why none had been sent lo the regions below. 'Twan the fault of his agent, His Majesty thought, That none of thoi.e lawyers had ever been c aught, And for his own pleasure he fell a desire, To conic to the earth and the reason inquire. Well, this lawyer who rose with a visage so grave, Made hisoponeat a < onsuminute knave; And the Devil was then greatly amused, To hear ihe attorney so loudly abused. I!u'. as soul) as the speaker had come to a close, The counsel opposing him fiercely arose And heaped such abuse on I ho head of the first. As made him a villain -of all men the worst. Thus they quarreled, eoulended and argued so long, 'Twr.s hard to determine which one was wrong, Aud concluding he'd heard i]ltitc enough of the fuss, "Old Nick" turned away and soliloquized thus : Ifalljhey have said of each other he true, The Devil has surely been robbed of his due; Hill I in satisfied now thai its nil very well. Kol'these lawyers won hi ruin the morals of hell. They have puzzled the court with their villainous cavil. And I'm free to confess thai they have puzzled the Devil, My agents arc right to let lawyers alone. If 1 had them they'd swindle me out of my throne. A young gentleman from St. Louis was walking along the shore at Lake Michigan with a Chicago girl, when he saw on tho sand what he supposed to be a devil-fish, with its long teu tacles spread out upon the submerg ed soil of Illinois. He was awaken ed from his dream by tho young lady, who said : "I have just dropped m y glove!" The difference between the Demo cratic and Republican parties is, that ihe Democrats are continually doing foolish things, but commit no crimes, while the Kcpublicaus arc guilty of countless crimes, but commit no fool ish mistakes. The result is that the parly of shrewd knaves is hard to defeat. The unseen, and therefore unex pected is what surprises us when sud denly developed. It ii for this reason that, unlike, the obvious bark of a tree, the sudden bark of a (log startles u.a. so, especially of dark night Ko matter how often a young lady's bat is lust, it is almost cortaiu to turn up?cither behind or at the side. a facetious exchange prints mar riages under the heading, 'Vanned fruit."
