THE JUDGE’S STORY. | “I don’t see how I could have done more for him than I did; but still the man should not have been punished—‘he should have been acquitted.” : With these words the Judge awoke to the consciousness of having a fel-low-traveler: and then, as if some explanation of' his remark would be in order, he went on: i “We had a very interesting trial in | Austin last week. Tom Carberry—- | Trish Tom, he is called—was tried for murder. I defended him, and never struggled harder for a client in my life. For a week before, and through~out the trial, I worked night and day to look up testimony, and to present the case to the jury in the best possible light.” I consulted with all the attorneys not engaged for the prosecution. We got him off with three years in the penitentiary; but he ought not to have been punished—he ,should have béen acquitted,” : . The fellow-passenger querried ‘as to the circumstances attending the alleged murder, and the Judge answered : 3 “They were very peculiar, and that «s the reason why the trial was so very interesting. A woman up in Montana, wlio never saw Tom Carberry, thought that he had* done her a great wrong; and so, when she was asked, as the phrase is, to take up ~witha new man, she named her terms: —‘Kill Tom Carberry, of Austin, Nevada:'” : | ~ ““‘But I never saw nor heard of the | man,” said the Montana aspirant. . “‘Nevertheless,” said-she; ‘Kill Tom Carberry. i . “‘lt is the depth of winter,” was objected, ‘and we are hundreds of miles from Austin. The journey cannot now be made. “‘Kill him in the spring,’ said the unrelenting woman. ' ~“‘Yes, said he, and the contract was sealed. : e - .“With the opening of travel in the spring there arrived at Salt Lake City" by the Montana Stage, an individual who freely announced that he was on his way to kill Carberry. Salt Lake City is a long ‘way from Austin, but the friendships of border men span much greater. distances. Tom was quickly advised of the ;approacl_)tl of his visitor, but he took no steps either to get out of his way or to be specially prepared to see company. He was then employed at the Keystone Mill, nine;miles from toawn, and he stayed there nearly a whole week after:he - knew the Montana chap was in Austin.. You see, Tom is' a peaceable man, and he didn’t want any difticulty, Most mnen would have come, and got the affair off their hands!”

The listener entertained doubts at this point, but saying nothing, the Judge proceeded : : . “Saturday evening, justas -usual with him: Tom eame to the city, and after getting shaved and fixed up for his holiday, ke went around to the saloons, where many of the people. of mining towns spend their lecisure, to meet his friends. It wasn’t long before he encountered the Montana fellow, who began at once, in Tom’s hearing, to make insulting: remarks.” ITere the listener interrupted with: “Why did he make insulting remarks ? If he had made a long journey solely for the purpose of killing Tom, why did n’t he shoot him off-hand ?”

- “Because,” said the Judge, “that would have been murder, and he would have been dangling from an’ awning ‘beam in less than fifteen minutes. - Killing is a very difficult matter. "When two men get into a fight, and all is fair between them, and one Kkills -the other, community don’t. ordinarily seem to feel much concerned on the subject. “‘Under such circemstances, the only way for Montana, ‘was to provoke Tom to a quarrel, and lead up to a fight. = But Tom wasn’t disposed to gratify him—he wouldn’t take any notice— didn’t seem to hear; but repeatedly left one saloon to go to another, just to keep out of the way. Montana followed him up, until, at last, standing right before;Tom, he jumped up about two feet from the floor, and came down with aheavy jar, and said, ‘I ’'m Chief!" Eyqn this Tom did n’t resent—he only put liis hands over his face and wept! Fact, sir; the tears actually flowed, until his best friends thought he was an arrant coward; and whén he,got up and went away to his room to bed, there wasn't one of them to say a good word for him. - ' . “Mountana enjoyed a season of glory. He had said, ‘l’m Chief!” in a public place, and no man had dared to accept the challenge. 2 i - “Thenext morning Tom was standing on the sidewalk, when Montana came along and they met face to face. Tom spoke.to him in a very quaint, low tone, saying: L l“<‘Stranger, you used me pretty rough, last night, but I don’t bear malice. . . Jest say that you’d been drinkin’ and did n’t mean it, and we’ll say no more about it.” ; ; “Montana answered: “No apologies in mine.’ R ; . ““‘Well, said Tom, ‘you needn’t apologize. Come into the saloon and chink glasses with me, and we’ll let the matter drop.’ j '

“Then Meontana said: “Tom Carberry, either you’re generous, or else you're a coward. I don’t think you are cowardly, an’ if I°d known you at the start, it’s most likely I would n’t ha’ waded in.’ But the matter can’t. be let drop, for there’s hundreds o’ people in my section an’ between here ~who know that I came here to kill you; so there’s but two ways—we mmust fight, or you must run. - If you’ll run, it ’ll be jest as good to me a 8 to fight.’ ' : i “Tom’s -almost suppliant bearing: disappeared on theinstant, anc.he said: ‘Stranger, I ain’t much in the 'habirtl o’ runnin’, an’ if we’re to ﬁght, we may as well have it out now as any time. Are you heeled? .| . ~ “Tom asked this question beciuse. we have a law against carrying concealed weapons, which is regard:d at such hours as people think they will rhave no use for their arms, and disre‘garded at all others, J

“The answer was: ‘No; I lef my revolver with the bar-keeper o the Exchange, : st ‘ #‘Get it,’ said Tom; ‘l’ll wai; for you here.) ‘i . Jias “The Exchange was in a ecdner building across a street which fame in at right. angles to the sidevalk where they were standing. Mortana went in at the front door, but came out af the side on the cross greet, hoping to steal up and ‘get thedrop’ on Tom, but this was not so easy. Tom was wide awake—he had crissed - the main street to guard against sur'prise; so ‘when Montana pokeﬁglis pistol round the corner and folléwed. it with just enough of his head totake sight, Carberry was not in range. In a moment their eyes met, and the

shooting began. ~ Tom curled down close to: the road-bed, to present the smallest possible area as a mark, and ‘because it is comparatively difficult co hit an object lying on the ground. Montana sheltered himself somewhat behind a low row of sacks of potatoes lying on the .edge of the sidewalk, and partly behind a small awningpost. This was a fatal error, for with a tall post for a mark it is the easiest thing in the world to make a lineshat, . : , ~_“I am making a long story of the shooting, which in reality was soon over. - They fired three shots apiece in as many seconds. Tom’s third ball passed through Montana’s heart, and he was dead heforé his head rebounded on the brick pavement. Carberry surrendered Iﬁmself at once, and was kept in jail until his trial came off, although bhail to any amount was offered.” ? After a pause, the Judge added: “I don’t see how I could have done more for him than I did; but the man should not have been punished—he should have been acquitted; and he would have been but for one circumstance, which prejudiced the court and jury against him.” ‘ ~#What was the circumstance so preJudlicial ?” questioned the listener. - “The Montana chap was the fourth man Tom had killed in Austin,” answered the Judge, innocently.

TOBACCO, WHISKY, MORPHINE (From thé Connersville, Ind., Examiner.) |

.- The Christianized world does; not know mnor conceive of the enormous consumption of the above named treacherous poisons. The amount of tobacco and whisky used in America could be sold for enough money to feed, and réspectably clothe, every one of our forty millions of people, and there weuld be enough left to educate all of the children. & : = The effect of tobacco on the nerves can; hardly be realized, as it operates differently on different constitutions. Of the three poisons, tobacco is the least harmless. = Indeed, it is a question with medical men whether it is not in many instances beneficial. Men who have inherited a craving for strong drink find comfort, or rather relief, in the use of tobacco. Unlike: ~whisky or morphine, it is not necessary to increase or enlarge the doses to obtain its viptues or the pleasure the use of it give}&t' Youcan use the same quantity every day for a lifetime and be satisfied. But that is not the case with whisky. Cultivate a craving for ardent -spirits and you will soon bercome hopelessly enslaved. Men do not take to strong drink naturally.— Luther Bénson told you the truth when he said that a child or a beast would turn from it in disgust, except where the craving was inherited. And it is a terrible truth that a majority of sthe drunkards of to-day, are so by inheritance. Luther Benson is good authority on the subject of temperance. ITe knows the terrible effect of whisky, for he has felt all the horrors it bestows upon mankind. : - When aman’s system becomes thoroughly. saturated with whisky, he loses self-control. Day by day his manhood weakens—his pride’ gradually leaves 'him and then the poor weak slave seeks comfort in larger potations until lost to.all sense .of shame, he goes down to the gutter. : The man who inherits this craving is the one whom we should pity the most. For he is not alone responsible ‘for his degradation. Henee, we take this oecasion to say to tippling fathers, pause in your career, lest you hand down to your children a desire that will in after years make them bring your gray hairs down in sorrow to the grave, and they in maddened frenzy, curse your ashes. i The reason why so few turn from ‘the accursed poison when they have once become its vietim, is because they get no encouragénient when they have’ lost pride of eharacter. ‘ When you see aman with his nerves all shattered so that it requires. both hands to lift-a cup of coffee to hislips, instead of saying, ‘I know you must feel bad this morning, come with me and take a little of something to nerve you up. Now come home with me -and get a bite to eat and a strong cup of tea. You will then feel better and 1 will have something for you to do.” Instead of doing that little act of charity, they look on him with contempt; shame him into degradation, when a kind word might have saved him.— Men are not reformed by insultewhen their pride is gone. = Only deeds: of kindness will reach the heart. It is much easier to reform men by acts of kindness, than by legal enactments. When you .can make a law that will stop the distillation of ardent spirits, . you can enforce temperance, pbut not: until then. Any man with a grain of reason knows that to be an. impossibility. Just as long as the general government derives an immense revenue from ardent spirits, spirits will be distilled, sold and drank. The amount of money invested in the liguor traffic amounts to many millions: of dollars. The bloated bondholders are too deeply interested in the whisky traffic to allow Congress to interfere with them, or to make a law that .would stop distillation, even if they could do su under the constitution.— It is, therefore, folly to talk of temperance laws. - Let us turn our attention to the poor inebriate, and, by deeds of kindness, draw him away from the enemy that steals away his brains. Many a poor victim to whisky tries to leave off by resorting to a substitute. There is a comparatively harmless ‘substitute_’)in beer or wine, but with the confirmed drunkard, %eer is “too thin.” They too often make the fatal mistake of using opium or mor_phine, which’is opium: in a condensed form. This is*jumping from the frying pan into thefire. Thereis no substitute for morphine. Of all the treacherous poisons, morphine is the most damnable. It steals upon you as gently. as a zephyr, and when you are once in the toil, your case is ?inost hopeless.. Persons quit the use of it, but not one in ten thousand possesses the will to do it. s S ;

It has long been a matter of surprise to us that doctors do not warn their patients against it—knowing that the habit is first contracted by using it as, a medicine, It is guick to relieve; pain. Nearly all doctors carry .a’ drachm bottle of it with them. - If a child has a slight touch of choleramorbus, morphine is administered. If the mother has a headache, she is given morphine. For rheumatism, neuralgia, in short, for nearly all the aches snd pains that flesh is heir too, miorphine is given. It acts like a charm at first, on account of giving immediate relief. SR - “Doctor, what was that you gave me, it stopped my headache in a few minutes ?” aih : : The doctor leaves a presecription which calls fof a half dozen powders,

consisting of eighths or sixteenths of a grain of morphine. ‘Thusthe ignorant patient learns the use of morphine. ' The happy effects -lead her to take it when she is not sick. The doses are enlarged and repeated - until, instead of an eighth of a grain, it will require from one to three drachms a week—enough to kill twenty stromg men. At thisistage the patient is a hopeless wreck, This is a slow process but’it ds certain suicide. - The doctor is to blame for this. ~He should have warned his patient in time. . . i ADVICE. - i If you do not wish to drag out a ‘miserable existence; If you wish-to live a few years longer and be happy, you must stop the whisky and stop the morphine. I know that I ain talking to many thousands of victims, and I know the dreadful ordeal you have to pass through. But you must stop at once. ' I know the agony you 'will endure, but you must arouse your will | and say you will stop it. "Half of the : suffering is imaginary. It will only require a few days of total abstinence. ‘ In three weeks at most, you will ;be“ master of the situation. . I know how 1 will be prostrated at the begin- \ ling. Shadows will haunt your pillow. Rats will erawl over your face at night. The least sharp sound will make youstart. The perspiration will oozee from very pore. Youwill have night sweats and be, oh, so miserable; but day by 'day you will gain strength, and the very worst case will in three weeks be jable to resist all further temptation, and then, in a little while you will be a’happy free man or woman. . Try it. i - J.M. B, o - E— . Unmarried Females in France. Married women are everything in France—the unmarried nothing.— Whenever you see a gentleman and lady engaged in conversation together, you may conclude, with unerring certainty; that the lady is married. How‘ever: many unmarried ladies may be present in acompany, no one pays any -attention tothem. . They are left to’ waste their sweetness beside their mammaas or aunts. Or, if a gentleman happens to speak atall to any of them, it-is in the coldest and most measured imaginable terms. Every word mustbe as fit for the mother or for the matron who has charge of a young . lady, as.for the young lady herself.— An unmarried lady is never-allowed, under any possible circumstances, to be a single moment in the company of .2 gentleman, except in the presence of her mgmma, or some other matronly, relative. She is never suffered to cross, alone, the threshold of her fath= er’s house, or the boarding-school of whicleshe is'an inmate. She is, in effect, as much a prisoner as if she were formally under the charge of a Reeper. Even in the presence of her mamma; or the near relative who may be her guardian, she is expected to be exceedingly distant and reserved when in the society of men. : i

- —— Miss Nellie Grant’s Approaching Nuptials. : - [ Washington (Jan. 24) Dispatch to the New York : i Hera?é.] Miss Nellie Grant’s engagement is one of the leading topics of, society chat here. It will be remembered that Fanny Kemble, the tragedienne, who married Mr. Pierce Butler, of Philadelphia, and was afterwards divorced from him, had a younger sister who evinced a great talent for musie. She studied in Italy and in Paris, and made a sensation at several concerts, but before she was fairly on the stage as a prima: donna, she was wooed and won -by Mr. Sartons, a rich Englishman of an old family: Now, when Miss Nellie Grant returned. from Europe last year, she made the acquaintance, on the steamer, of.the second son of this Mr. and Mrs. Sartons, and the intimacy ripened into affection.— Just then the elder brother died; and the fortunate swain thus became the heir to the Sartons estate.- It is in%imated that the marriage will come off in the spring,.and at the same time Col. Fred Grant will marry Miss Kitty Cooke, the ¢eldest daughter of the exGovernor ofthis District. 3

. Think of It. : Frazer's Magazine states the astounding fact that theé average annual expenditure for intoxieating 'drink in Great Britain and:Treland, during the four years previous to 1869, was £450,000,000, or $2,250,000,000, a sum greater than our great national debt. = Twothirds of this was expended by the working classes, whose annual wages average $420, nearly a fourth of which they spend for drink and tobacco, an amount nine times as much as they spend for cotton goods. e The same ratio of impoverishment among the working classes is going on in the United States. K With our vast resources for obtaining all the mnecessary comforts of life, a panic would not be felt by the poor, but for this useless consumption of what wrecks body and soul. -Why will a | man “put an enemy in his mouth to steal away his brains ?” The amount of labor necessary to rear families and make ‘happy homes,; would not be half so great, but for this accursed poison.—Ew. - . | —————a < EE— - i A Definition of an Editor. ‘We have seen many definitions bf many names, words and phiases, but the following. of an editor, given by Josh Billings, is about the best we ever yet encountered: ] “An editor iz a male. being whoze. ‘biziness iz to navigate a nuzepaper.— He writes editorials, grinds out poetry, inserts deths and weddingsgsorts out ‘manuskripts, keeps a waste basket, blows up the “devil,” steals matter, fites out other peoples battles, sells hiz paper for a dollar and 50 cents a year, takes white beans and apple sass for pdy when he kan git it, raizes a large family, works 19 hours out of every 24, knows'no Sunday, gits damned bi everybody, and once in a while whipt bi sumboddy, lives poor, dies middleaged and often broken hearted, leaves no money, iz rewarded for a life ov toil with ashort but free obituary puff in th? nuzepapers.

It would appear, therefore, that the "habit of our domestic dogs in this respect is derived from the nature of the same species in the-wild state. This is a curious fact, and serves to prove how mueh the instinetive habits of wild animals are retained by their domesticated progeny. -l oy

- Newspaper'“Beats.” We take the.following from the New Albany Ledger. - We suppose no one in this locality will admit ‘belonging to the class described: . = We ‘suppose there must be, at the most modest caleulation; between - fifteen hundred and two thousand per‘Bons in. this viéinity who' get their newspaper reading for nothing, including, the unconscionable individuals who'steal papers from other people’s doors, or borrow froni their neighbors, or-Joaf around where a newspaper is subseribed for, and paid for, and monopolize it to the exclusion of the rightful owner. We have had several ‘subseribers - stop their ‘subscriptions, for no fault of bur earriers, as.they admitted, in non delivery, but because their papers, after being delivered, were taken by some individual, as short of confidence as of cash, who would take possession of it. - Thus, a newspaper, which ought to-be well supported by a community for the general good it does to-that community, is made to support a town, in a mdasure—that is, it is expected to 'live without resourdes,. and to advertise: the life and business of a towrn with-. out the support which is requisite- to enable it to keep up to a metropolitan standard of excellenice.. An individus al should blush to read a paper habitually which fnother individuyal paysfor.

An exchinge truly remarks that some 'young -men act as _if churches were a sort of public property, where they can.do as they please without regard'to the feelings of the congregation assembled, or. to the rights and authority of the.church officials. It is not an uncommon thing forthem to assemble in the yard.in front of the chureh, and smoke ‘and talk lond, and otherwise annoy ladies and gentlemen passing in or out, and when remonstrated with, for them to retreat to the side-walk, and maintain that the church officers, have no authority to prevent them from stopping there.— Now and then 'church officers are obliged to appeal to the law i order to enforce a lesson 'of good order and ‘gentlemanly breeding upon such’persons. In that event the offender pays at the rate .of $4O per lesson, hesides the “incidentals,” and a cheap lesson it is for one whose early education has been so much neglected as to render him ignorant of the fact that gentlemen neyver loungearound churech doors. In ancient times the. sexes oceupied opposite sides of the church and there was some_excuse for waiting at the chureh doors .after the service that families and friends might get together, but that custom-was'changed many years ago, and in respectable society wlien young gentlemen accompany ladies to church they sit in the same pew with them and they come out together. It is understood, as a rule, that the young men who: crowd around. the doors of churches and places of amusement haveno other business there than to stare at the ladies, and to annoy them by making scurrilous remarks and crowding the path-way. . - The- proprietors of all respectable’ places of amusement in the cities have police arrangements for protecting those who frequent their places, Why should it niot be the duty of chureh of-. ficials to make similar provision for' keeping their door-way cléar of idlers and loafers?
