LIGONIER. NOBLE COUNTY, INDIANA, THURSDAY, MAY 23, 1878,

THE DEVIL AND THE LAWYERS.

The deyil came up to the earth one day, - And inito the court he wended his wa¥. Just as the attorney with very grave face, Was proceeding to argue the points in a case.

Now, a lawyer His Majesty never had seen, For in his dominions none ever had been, ! And he felt ver{‘ anxious the reason to know Why none had been sent to the regions below. "Twas.the fault of his agents, His Majesty tho’t, That none of t;heseil t]awyers, have ever been cau g i And for his own pFeashtc he felt ﬁeaire; To come to the earth and the reason inquire.

Well, the Iziv@:g‘g'«yho rose with a visage so

: grave, A B el Made out his opponent a consununate knave ; And Satan felt consiclerabl¥ aniused To hear theé attorney so badly abused. :

But as soon as the speaker had come to aclose, The counsel opposing him fiercely arose, And heaped such abuse on the head of-the first, That made him a villain of all men the worst.

Thus they qua}"reled, contended and argued so ; ong- a "Twas hard to determine which of them was wrong ; ; And coneluding he'& heard enough of the fuss, Old Niek turned away and soliloguized thus:

“They’ve puzzled the (ﬁourts with their villain- , ous cavil, Gt And’ Pm tree-tlg c%xllfess it, they’ve puzzled the £ 2 e . $ eI % f My agents were right to let lawyers alone; * If I had themt lthey’d'”swindle me out of my -~ throne! ; X

A Marriage of Incenvenience.

Wiley Griskett bore the title of “Rogues’ Attorney-General” on ‘the Blackhawk circuit. His clients were principally knaves and simpletons; the former he helped to swindle, and the latter he swindled. To which class Zimri Bezel belonged we leave the reader to judge after hearing our story. :

‘Mr. Dezel did a thriving business as a jeweler, till bad times came, and bills came in faster than he was able to pay. lle hoped to pull through, if people would only wait aditile; but bad times: are precisely those when people won’t wait. In an evil hour he bethought himself of Wiley Griskett, and went to him for counsel. { ;

Instead of advising a frank disclosure of the debtor’s circumstances, as an honest lawyer would have done, Mr. Griskett set to work in his own peculiar way. : i

- “What’s the valde of your stock and assets ?” he inquired.

“Thirty thousand dollars,” Mr. Bezel answered. 3

“And your debts amount to—" “Twenty-five thousand.” - “Make your notes for:forty thousand.” boh e

Bezel opened his eves.

“That’s ‘a good deal more than I owe,” he answered ; “besides the creditors won’t accept notes.” L - “I don’t say you should make them to'your creditors.” | . “To whom then?” ‘ . “Shamboy &*€o.” i " “But I den’t know them.” =~ “No more do I,” returned Griskett, with a wink. “Make out the notes, and then run away. As attorney for Messrs. Shamboy & Co., u highly rB- - firm in a distant city”’—here another wink—*l take out an attachment as against an absconding debtor, cut ahead of every body, gobble up the whole property, and privately remit you the proceeds, retaining, of course, a reasenable fee. It will give you breathing time,” the tempter whispered, “and, once on your legs again, you will be able to pay all your honest debts.” e v :

Many a man. has been led to steal by the same delusive hope of one day making restitution; but none the less was he a thief; and none the léss was Zimri Bezel a swindler in consenting to follow the advice of Wiley Griskett. What a race there was among the lawyers the day Bezel’s.. place was found closed and the proprietor missing. Writs came out as fast as busy pens could draft them; but that of Shamboy & Co, thanks to their attorney’s vigilance, was in the sheriff’s hands an hour before the rest. It swept everything, of course, to the great disgust of those to whom there was nothing left but to grumble. But grumbling was of little use against the notes for forty thousand, dollars, bearing Zimri Bezel’s undisputed signature, produced on behalf of Shamboy & Co., by Mr. Wiley Griskett. : ;

- Mr. Griskett pushed matters as rapidly as legal forms would permit.— Bezel’s effects were sold for about the sum at which he had valued them.— Griskett receipted for amount in his client’s name, and pocketed it with an inward chuckle, while outwardly bemoaning the large balance still left due to Messrs, Shamboy & Co. ¢ Within a month came the news of Zimri Bezel’s suicide. Day after day he had visited the post office of the country village in which he had taken refuge, to inquire for letters. None came—none at least from Wiley Griskett—and one day, on receiving the usuwal answer, the poor dupe put a pistol to his head and blew his brains out, . : . Zimri Bezel’s widow was an eccentric little body, and hcnest to the core. She felt keenly her husband’s flight and failure, and ‘would have felt them still .more had she known what had: lxzassed between him and Wiley Grisett. s

One morning she walked over e the office of old lawyer Marfetch. “Mr. Marfeteh,” began the widow, “you hold, I beliéve, most of the claims against my late husband.” : The lawyer bowed stifly. It was a sorry subject. Ile had never quite gotten over being so far outgeneraled by Wiley Griskett. ; “Can I trust you to keep a secret?” the lady continued. Pt “A curious.question to ask a lawyer,” replied Mr. Marfetch; “you may speak without hesitation.”

~“Could you manage to get all the claims under your control?”’ asked the little woman. e

“There would be no difficulty in that, I think,” - was the answer, *“seeing there’s so little prospect of any of them being paid.” _ “I propose to pay them!l’ said the widow, bridliug up. *You see, 1 have reason to know that I am down in a certain person’s will for « good round sum.

It must have been to head off any such contingency that the cunning lawyer made an offer of marriage to Mrs. Bezel barely a year after her husband’s death. W hat possessed her to accept him” was one of those mysteries of a womsan’s will which none pretended to explain. ; The bridal tour was over, and the honeymoon on the wane, when Mr. Marfetch called at Mr. Griskett’s office one fair morning. ~“May I speak to you in private?” asked the former. ; With a curt nod, Griskett led the way. to.;g. private room. “May 1 inquire your business!” he Sald.s . . < . Ik is to demand payment of these ‘bonds of your wife,” returned Marfetch, producing the documents. Wiley Griskett turned pale as he glanced them over. There was no disputing their validity, or that he was bound to pay them; for, as the law then stood, a man in marrying aj woman became responsible for her debts. f =l “I’ll never pay them!” heexclaimed. “Why not?” i “I insist that they are void.

When Mr. Marfetch left he had Wiley Griskett’s check in his pocket.— The latter, mad with fury, hurried to his home, and with dastard blows drove his wife into the street.

“Slieking Up.”

- It ought to be too late in the season to require any nudge in regard to putting the dooryards and home premises in “apple-pie-order.” But we have observed that in many villages and farming communities this *work is never done until the house-wives either do it themselves or press the men intoit. ~'When the weather is such as we have had this spring, the rakes, hoes, wheelbarrows, hammers and other utensils required in “slickingthings up” should leave nothing undone past the middle of April. There is the dooryard to clear of leaves and the other debris left by winter, the lawn to top-dress or uncover from the prudent dressing of last fall; the stone ‘walks to straighten. up, the plank walks to mend, or the gravel walks to clean and give a fresh coating; the fences to right up; the grape trellises to straighten and repair; the chip-yard to clean up, and the cellar to empty of all decaying or useless maftter, and put in a condition fit for a Christian family to live over. pul , We have very often found that we could tell the condition of business in a village, and the amount of public spirit that existed there, by observing the state of the dooryardsin spring time. Where the fences are straight, the walks whole, the little grass-plats clean, the trees and shrubbery neatly trimmed, thé houses well painted, the gates all hung and ‘no old hats stuck into broken windows,—there we found thrift, intelligence, contentment and prosperity. : . . The same thing is true of a farming community. There is no reason why a farmer’s door-yard and household surroundings should not be as well ordered, cleanly and attractive as a villager’s. = There isn’t a crop so im portant to the comfort and healthfulness of his family as his vegetable garden, and nothing more necessary to the contentment and pleasure of his wife and daughters than a generous and well-kept flower-garden, with tasteful and attractive out-door surroundings. If you haven’t it already, set out a bed of roses, so located that the summer winds may f{ill your home with sweerqgvors; and give up time enough now ‘while youwcan, to earry out any little plan that your good wife may have for the adornment of your homestead.

The Laboring Men. (Indianapolis Sentinel.)

The fact ought not to be obscured—‘indeed it cannot be—that in this country_the people are supreme. They ' make and unmake law-makers; they ' lay the foundations of governments; they erect the superstructures; they are the uncrowned sovereigns, born to - rule. This, thauk God, is a government for the people of the people and by the people, and if not administered in the interests of the people it is a cheat and a lie, and odious beyond exaggeration. For a number of years the government has been wrongfully and criminally administered. The _people see and realize the fact. They -are convineced that the radieal party bas strictly and studiously legislated against their interests. They have seen their fortunes disappear like mist before amoonday sun, homds-wrested from their grasp, their business destroyed as if struck by a thousand thunder-bolts, and this too while they ‘were struggling with almost superhuman efforts to succeed. This business depression, confined to no locality, has been felt from the pine forests of Maine to the golden shores of California. Its sweep has been continental and its effects everywhere the Same—bankruptey, poverty, idlenesg, hunger, despair. Such have been the bitter fruits of radical rule. The party,dead to every sentiment of patrietism, :and alive only to schemes of self aggrandizement, has legislated to improve the condition of the money lords by making it possible for then: to seize and appropriate the earnings of others—legalized piracy, such as was never witnessed in the world since Jesus whipped the money changers out of their temple. -As if to, make the case still more haggard during all these years of business prostration and ruin, Idleness and hunger, the seasons have been fabulously fruitful, we have had bread and to spare. Field and farm have responded to the plow, and the cattle'on a thousand hills have attested the ability of the country to keep the people from hunger.. But radical curses have been more than a match tor Jehovah’s blessings, and the radiicdl devil has been permitted to touch the country in all of its enterprises and interests with his fiery fingers and create widespread ruin. At this su-, preme moment the suffering people; are earnestly discussing reforms and remedies. They are loth to starve in full sight of bread, or die of thirss while listening to the musie of gurgling twaters. And now then, what? ‘Why, simply this: Their restlessness is regarded as dangerous, their lamentation as utterances of criminal purposes, their resolutions treason, and their wretched condition an evidence of their degradation. Still these sufferers are the people— citizens in all regards the peers of any other citizens in the right to assemble, discuss their interests, take counsel together and provide as best they may for further misfortunes and privations, which, under the curse of raicalism are cer-. tain to come. As a means of silencing the protests of these people we hear the cry of communism, a Shylock strategem to obscure the damning curses of radicalism, and at this late day, if possible, compel laboring men to bear the odium of the acts of their oppressors. -We doubt not that there are communists ‘in the United States, just as there are radical infidels like Bob Ingersoll.radical thieves like Bugbee,radical conspirators like John S'ier-, man, radical perjurers like J, Madison Wells, and radical frauds like R. B. Hayes, but to charge the deep-seated unrest now prevailing among laboring men in this country to communism is a self-evident lie, and the men who utgerit know it to be so. The underlying purpose of laboring men in this. country to-day is to find some pathway out of the daikness that now en virons them, to obtain work and wages, fcod and clothing, shelter and home. Parents are endeavoring to respond to the pleadings of children, and to their own aspirations after that which -willenable them to occupy their rightful positions in society. -

e — YVentilation. [Saniiary Record.]

~ Many persons complain of always - getting up tired in the morning. This ’ 18 very often due to defective vientilation of the bedroom, or from using an undue amount of bed clothes or bedding. TFeather beds are too soft and i yielding, and partially envelope the sleeper, thus producing profuse per--spiration. The habit of lying -too much under blankets is also very pernicious by reason of the carbonic acid ’ exhaled by the sleeper being: respired. Again, it i a commbon error to suppose that by simply opening a window a Itttle at night a room can be ventilated.- People forget that for proper ventilation there must be an inlet and outlet for the air. In bedrooms there is often neither, and if there is a fireplace it is generally closed up. Again, it is a mistake to suppose that foul air goes to the top of a room. Certainly the heated air goes to the top, but the chief impurity, the carbonie acid, falls to the bottom. There is nothing so efficacious in removing the lower strata of air as the ordinary open fire place, especially if there is & fire burning. + N } Y E—————— : = A Remarkable Result. i It makes no difference how many physicians, or how much medicine you ‘have tried, it is now an established fact that German Syrup is the oaly remedy »which has given complete satisfaction in severe cases of Lung Diseases.

: Oldest City in Indiana, = - [Letter in the Louisville Conrier-Journal.] 1t has been a disputed question for a long time which was the oldest city in Indiana, Fort Wayne or Vincennes. During the year 1679, the Count-de Frontenac, Governor of Canada, urged upon the French monarch _,the;imém;tance of erecting forts and trading posts in' the Western chain of the great lakes.. Though no assistance came from the profligate King, Irontenac, who was a man of g’re?t. energyand spirit, sent a number of trading parties with duthority to erect stores or posts and take possession of all thecountry visited in: the name of the Government of France:. "In Knapp’s history of the Maumee Valley I find the following resultof the expedition; “One of these parties found their way . to the Miami or Maumee river and in’ 1680 built a small stockade just below the site~of Maumee City. This was an important trading peint for several years, and in 1694 was under the command of Sieur Courthemauche, but was-finally abandoned for a more’ eligible location at. the head of the Maumee river, néar where the city- of Fort Wayne now stands. 'On the very spot where the fort of Maumee stood the British, in 1794, erected Fort Miami? G ; <D S

At Edinburg, Scotland, some years since, the Jewels of the Crown were locked in a box, that box in another, and so on, until'they were supposed to be burglar-proof. THhey were then locked up in the vault of the ecastle, there to remain forone hundred years, the keys being placed in a mortar and fired into the sea. Scarce fifty years past by, and.the modern lock-picker opens the vault and boxes without trouble. So the science of medicine,. when studied with the: aid of chemistry and the microscope, becomes plain and simple, and diseases that were regarded incurable a generation ago, now ‘readily yield to remedies employed by the modern and progressive physician. A decade of years since, and women were taught to.believe :that their pecualiar diseases and weaknesses were incurable; but now hundreds and thousands of orce bedridden women in the United States will testify to the fact that Dr. Pierce’s IMavorite Prescription has effected their perfect and. permaneut cure. .

_Jay Gould’s Paper on The Income Tax. . [New York Tribune.). . "' We have cailed it an unequal tax. There are two classes of persons who mnever pay their rightfulshare of it, mamely rogues and farmers. The experience of our own country proves that dishonest. persons can easily evade the payment of alarge proportion of such'tax ; and as there is no process discoverable by which an asses: sor can ascertain what a man’s actual income is unless he chooses to- reveal it, nor what deductions he can properly make for bad debts, &c.,the temptation of fraud, false swearing, and all sorts of mean evasions, is a constant source of public demoralization. In the towns, therefore, an income tax works incalculable misehief. But in the agricultural regions ‘iv is scarcely felt. 'The farmer raises all that he needs for his own support. His beef, his: mutton, "his bread, his potatoes, ~are the produg¢ts of his own lands. In many cases he grows even thematerials of most of his homespun garments. Thus he can own a large and productive estate and live in -plénty, and at the end of the year he can return n¢ taxable income, while his poorer neigh: bor, the shop-keeper, not being able to eat calico and ten-penny nails, must buy all his food, and pay a tax.of two per cent. on every dollat of his butcher’s and baker’s bills. .
