IS AMWELL & P ICKARD
The Court and the jnrr, es well as
the spaetatols, generally onj(ty the
scene when a ;sawyer, in an attempt to
badger or browbeat a witness, comes off
second beat in the encounter. A cor-
respondent of a contemporary recalls
an amusing instance of this sort, which
happened a few years ago in an Albany
court room.
The plaintiff, who was a laxly, was
called to testify. She got on very well,
and made a favorable impression nu
the jitter under the guidance of her
counsel, tion. Lyman 'I'retnaite, tut til
the opposing counsel, Hon. henry
Smith, subjected her" to a severe cross.
exstninetiorl. This 80 confused her
thea. she became faint, and fell to the
floor 111 a swoon.
Of conrse this excited gen' nil sym•
patlhy iu the audience, and Mr. 1Sluitll
saw that his case looked bad.
An expedient suggested itself by
whie1] to make the swooning appear
like a piece of stage trickery, and thus
destroy sympathy for her. Tho lady's
face in swooning had tarred purple red
and this fact suggested a new line of
atteact. The next eitness was a mid=
die ages} lady. The sonnet asked :
'Did you see the plaiutiff faint a
t;liort time ago ?'
'Yes sir,'
'People tnrn paale when they faint,
don't they 2'
A great sensation in the court, and
au evident confusion of witness. But
in a moment she answered, 'No, not
al to aye'.
.Did yon (via hear of a ease of faint-
ing where the party did not turn
pale 2'
.Yes, sir'
'Did yon ever see such a ease ?'
.Yes. sir.'
'When ?'
'.11.bent a year ago.'
'Where was it ?'
'In this city.'
'Who was it ?'
By this time the excitement was in•
tense ---everybody listened anxiously for
the reply. �It came promptly, with a
twinkle in the witness`s eye, and a
quiver on her lip, as it from suppressed

'Tyres a negro, sir.'

One-het;fof the mistakes is telegrams
re'uic from bad pnnotnetinn. The ojle-
r atol' always renis the message straight
along, pntttng in neither capitals nor
plum t nation marks.
The other day a Chicago newspaper
received this telegram which, without
any punctuation, read very gneei•ly :-
"rho pieces:ion at Judge Ortou's
fnneritl was very fine and nearly two
miles in length as was also the beaeti-
fut prayer of Rev. Dr Swing from Chi-
cago.'
I found the following paragraph in a
Wiecunsin newspaper :—
'A. Rad accident happened to the fami-
ly of John Elderkin on limn street
yesterday. One of his chidren was
run over by a wagon 3 year:( old with
sere eyes and pantalets on which never
spoke afterward.'
Alco this :•--

Setutda.y belnngiug to Dr. llttammnnd

One morning after I had lectured an
Lacrosse. Wis., I took up the morning
paper and was surprised to read this
startling paragraph
'George

'•George Peck, an intentlerate editor
