An Impatient Ji'rymaw An Arkaa-
khh correspondent of the New Orleans
I'icayune gives the following as authentic :
You are all fond of cracking jokes at the
experiM of Arkansas; Hff Iwm ia one on
your State, ahsolutcly true. 1 got it from
an eye witness :
The district court in one of your north
ern parishes was in session 'twas the first
day of the court; time, after dinner. Law
yers ami other.- had dined and were sitting
out hefore tin- hotel, and a long, lank, unso
phisticated countryman came up and un
ceremoniously made himself or 'em, and re
marked : "Gentlemen, I wish you would
go on with this court, fur 1 want to go home
I l. ft Betty a looking out."
"Ah!" said one of the lawyers, "arid
pruy, sir, what detains you at Court?"
'Why, sir." said the countryman, "I'm
w fetched here as a jury, ami they say if 1
go home they will have to hud me, and they
moutn't do that as I live a good piece."
"What jury are you on .'" Baked a law
yer. What jury ? '
"Yes what jury. Grand or traverse
jury ?"
"Grand or trnv injury? lad fetched if I
km."
"Well said the hiwy r, "did the judge
charge you ?"'
Will squire" said he, "the little Allow
that sit up in the pulpit and kinder bosses
it over tin- crowd, gin us a talk, hut I don't
know whether be charged any thing or not."
The crowd broke up in n roar of laugh
ter, and the sherifl' called court.
An old gentlemen was once joking a ludv
acquaintance, who had paed her four
score years, in regard to her eligibility to
the married state.
"Oh," said she, "I have no longer- am
desire to get married."
"Now," said her gallant, "suppose a
very sm;i t, rich young man should come
and oficr himself, don't you think you would
accept ?"
"O. I d m't know ." said she, "we are
changeuhlc cutters."
Anecdote nv Napoleon I. Napoleon
was accustomed to weur h coat of mail un
der his clothes, and which he rarely went
without. On his departure once for Belgi
an, he thought it best to guard ngain-t
those danger.-with which he was threatened
having all Europe leagued against him
by every MWII in his power. He accord
ingly BMH for a clover workman, and aked
if he thought himself competent to make a
cout of mail of such texture that no weap
on whatever could penetrate. On the arti
ficer answering in the nfiraaatrre. Napoleon
agreed to give him 18.000 francs, the sum
asked. On the day fixed, the man brought
his work to the palace. Napoleon quicklj
examined it, and ordered the workman to
put it OS biauelf. The man obeyed.
Napoleon took two pistols, saying. M YYe
