THE LAW SUIT.
The village) of Yewford very murh re
sembles a hundred other tillages in Eng
land. It has its parish church overgrown
with ivy on the south sidr; the parson

Again the church warden of Ye ford
is a man before hand with the woild,
one who likes to keep up the different

thin man, with a pale f-ice. The butch

The lawver. though nol professionally

a trial was pending, the issue of which

the attuatton ol a oeggar: wjo coum

the villagers oi Yswford could come to
nv aatiafactorv conclusion as to the esti
mation io which Mr. Douglass ooght to
ba held, until the issue of.the trial should
be known? .
Mr. Douglass, whatever good qualtttsa
he might posaess. waa evidently not a
rich man: and by degrees, an opinion goi
abroad lhat be wss noor. For some
months he wss punctual in his psyments,
ss the church clock wst to etrike tha hour;
id. d more o, for it aoinetimea hap-
many others, male and femsle, old and wnai naa already Deen reau to mm oy
young, gentle, and simple, all of them j another, when, to hia great astonishment
well worthy of being introduced into 1 snd apparent confusion, he made the
this narrative; but aa such a proceeding iditcovery thst ihe psrsgrsph hsd been
would materially interfere with our pre-) incorrectly resd by the lawyer, and that,

severally described by those who have j having been untucceaaful in the suit, be
more tslent and more leisure. One per wss reported lo have been succeatful.

At length symptoms appeared witch
moat people, wh-iher living ia towaj or
oantry. are quick to ander.Und. s A
few artklea sent to Mr. DoofltM by the
eillsge draper were not paid for a de
livery. The butcher bad a email ae
eoaat attud, aad widow Freemaa bad
whispered to Mrs. Perkins, the pabli
esa e wife, that ber lodger for. the last
month, bad not paid ber a sis r Is six
pence. Things were in thia critical state, aad
the reputation of Mr. Douglass hung
tresmbling ia the balance, when a fa of
ihe village worthies met together at the
uuu, w seme soneininf connected with
the poor rates.
The important affairs of the parish be
ing discussed, the Iswyer took op the
oewspsper which had been brought ia by
the landlord, and soon read in a rapid
maimer ma louowipg announcement
The long-pending caose, Doolas
cerstie Parsley,' ie at length decided.
The Plaintiff proved ansuccesful.
The lawyer immediately threw down
the paper on the table. - Just sa I ex
peeted,said be, - and juat what I think
Douglate deserves. If he hsd epplyed
me before he commenced bis soil, I
could have sated him buodredt-.f pound.
A ma must be non compos mntio to
take such a cause into court. But I saw
haw the case stood, ha baa been led on
by a swindling sttorney, who will haw
most likely arrest him for costs. 80 Mr.
Dooglsss, irsiesd of having a rent-roll of
five hundred pounds per annum, must be
content 10 live in forma pauptrU.
1 never tnougnt mat ba would belp
to psy poor ratee," said the chuch war
den. Poorratea, cried the botcher, was
it ever likely that ho would pay poor
rales, when be couldn't pay bis botcbei's
bill? It baa run in my bead for come
time past, that hia nobla would coma to
ninepence, and I lold my wife so.
Hsd Mr. Dosilase tsken a lesson
from those w bo were able to instruct him,"
said the schoolmaster, slowly delivering
hie opinion. had ba eorreeily calculated
bis profit and loss, ba might bsva been
swsre lhal the son total of bis expecta
tions would only amount to a cipher."
There wss alwsya too much froth
hoot him for me." asid the publican;
M lor though be could talk fast enough
when it aosweted bia purpose, he was
never the man lo atop to take
k, v giaaa wt orandy and water, Irom
one montu'e end to another. However,
he baa ran up no score at the Bull, and
I'll take pretty good care that he hae not
even a pipe ol tobacco without pevtni
for it."
For some time nothing interrupted the
tide of unpopularity which bad set in
sgsinst the unfortunate Mr. Dooglsss;
each expressed his opinion in bis own
wsy, but all sgreed that too much for
bearanee had already been exerciaed, and
that it was high time to let Mr. Douglass
understand, that sn upstart having nothing
but a ttumpery claim to five hundred a
year to support linn, would no longer be
countenanced by ihe worthy inhabitatita
of Yewford.
At length, during a momentary pauee,
the echoolmaater took up the newspaper,
with the idle curiosity of ne who has
pieaiure in reading
Hit his own eyes
a aa m t
snbservstion on ihe great advantage of
correct reading, a thing which be always
tried 10 impresa upon wo minua 01 111s
1 schoUis, every countensnce underwent a
j sudden change. The lawyer looked aa
keenly at the newepsper af though he
would cut out the piece with hia eyea;
ihe churchwarden, halfopentng his mouth
and rising his brows, sat like a statue; the
butcher atsred st the publican, and the
rublican stsred st the butcher. A clap
of thunder would scarcely hae been more
j instantaneous in producing an effect on
! the whole group.
I .1- 1 I i-
The u'tbcliettna lawyer was the urst
to take the newspaper from the handa of
the schoolmaster, and as aoon ss he wss
convinced of ihe error into which he had
fallen, be burst into sn affected ictcsie, a
little lesembline a laugh. You must,"
he said. " really forgive the hoax I have

vinced, a priori, that a verdict must be
given in his favour. The defendant hsd
no evidence to bring forward, and I quite
eznected lhat he would have allowed
judgment to go by default. Never did a
jury decide more uprightly, and I ahall
hsve grest plesture in congratulating Mr.
Douglass on his deserved success. .
""Iia! bal ha!" here buret from the
open mouth of the churchwarden, who in
his turn affected to be very merry. " I

waa saying to justice Villera, that, before

respeetsbl man was aot to ba found any
where. Wa most set the bells to ring on
the oceaa'HM, that Mr. Douglass msy see
thai bis neighbors are almost sa much
pleased at bis good fortune as he ie bin

. Tba schoolmaster, though not bold
enough to assert that bo bad at first been
aware of 'the ioeorrsct reading of the
lavyer, maintained that, bsd the verdict
been e 'described, be ehonld have been
justified in the sentimente which eseaped
him, inaamucb as the decision of S British

of Mr. Doegiaas had been worked in

enumerate ihe good qualities of Mr. Doog

of education, than subtract from hia merits;
pronounced him worthy to be classed
among gentlemen, and considered it tba
undoubted interest -of the inhabitants of
leavford sMculiifstegood fellowship with
ao respectable a character.
' Tba publican confessed that ba hsd
beeo fairly taken in, but no wonder; as
he should es soon of thought f drinking

Mr.. Douglass, ha bsd no doubt, wss a
good fellow at bottom, and be should ba
glad 10 lake from bia sa order for the

I bouru the church wsrdcn saw throuch
tha deceit of the lawyer, and the lawyer
understood the trickery of the church
siden; thoogh the publican hushed at

tbe schoolmaster despised tha selfishness
of the publican; yet eery one tried to

TESTS OF POLITENESS.
Of the gentlemen, young and old,
whiskered snd un whiskered, thst mv be
seen in Washington atreet any sunshine
dav, there is not one who doee not think
himself a polite man, and who would
not very much resent any insinuation 10
the contrary. Their opinion is ground-
ed on reasons ; u nen tney go 10 a par
ly, they make a low bow to the mistress
of the house, and then look round after
somebody that is young and pretty to
ata m a .
make themselves agreeable to. At a ball,
they will do their utmost lo entertain
their, partner, iinlete the Fairs have giv.
en them to some one who ia ucly aud
awkward, and they will listen to her re
mark with their most bland? expression.
f lliey sre invited to a dinner party, they
go in their beet coats, praise their en
tertainer s wine, and tU the lady they
hope her children are all well. If they
a-esd on the toes of a well dressed per
eon, they will beg his pardon. They
sever spit on a carpet; and in walking
aith a lady they always give her the in
side, and, if the practice be allowable,
iley offer her their arm. So far, so good;
but I must always see a man in certain
s.tuations, before I decide whether he is
polite or no.
I should like lo see how he would act
if placed at a dinner between an anci
ent maiden lady, and a country clergyman
wth a a malt ealary and a rusty coat, and
with some distinguished person opposite
tohim. I want to aes him on a hoi snd

To my ftllow'titiztnt from New Orltan
la JJataaianiUa. aatf Jnm Ml NaUr to (At

crtat WtM;
Fxuow Citizkxs: Ever since the
world begun, all the hun-e aod chasie
lell'd oa ia all parts of crestioa haiot been
only a mere flea bunt to the rale fox chaeo
thai bss just been completed in theao
United States; by the grace of God free
and independent at last.
It bas beeo knowa to every body that
for the last ten years it haa been impoe
eible to batch eggs, or rsise poultry, or
to trust any thing at largo of tbat nalur
night arter sight and day arter dayneat
artcr neat and chicken arter chicken, waa
dcatroyed by tha foxea. and they got so
bold and brazen at laat they would eons
into the poultry-yard la opea day, or any
where else, and kept the hull feslher'd
tribe a karkling pretty much all tbe while.
At first the folks got trapa and dogs; but
it got ao at last, tbst tha foxes got so nu
mcrous, it wss jistss much as e dog's life
was worth to stuck 'emand fulka be
gun to despair especially as it was found
nut thst all the younger foxes got their
directions from one rsle ely fox, who ae
yet never had been tracked, or trap'd, or
driven lo hie bole; be waa every wherS,
io every atate, almost at tha earns time.
And wherever be wss reported to be.
there it was found all the other foxse was
most knowing-and most impudent. So
it was. concluded that it wss, no use o
try and Irsp loe common run ol loxee.
but, if possible, make a general tally in
all the ststes, and give chase to this old
fox especially snd not give on till ha
wss run to bia hole, and then dig him out
for il waa thought if ba waa only
caught, all the real would ba pretty acarca.
Well, thia matter being agreed upon, the
first thing next to be done was to select
a good long-winded leader ol the chase-
one who would not give out, snd whose
horn could be heard furthest. And so we
all sgreed upon Old Tip, and we got
him pretty well mounted, and he sound
ed bis horn, and its echoes went up and
down rivers, snd seoss valleys, snd .over
mountsins, till folk all about creation got
acquainted with the sound, snd on a
given dsy, they assembled at all their sta
tions, snd put in practice the few general
rules of the chase, capering a little round,
and having a few ahatn chases, jest lo git
nimble, snd then on a signal from Old
Tip's born they all started, and iich a
chase, as I said afore, as then began, the
hull created world has never before eeen
for it wss an everlasting wide and lung
country to chase over, and noone know
ing yet where the lox would first break
kiver, all hands at first went to work beat
ing the buth. The first track wat struck
in Louisiana; and about 3.000 givo chase
there, and run him out of lhal atate and
he streakid away north aa hard as he
could clip it, and knowing all the secret
by-ways, escaped till he reached the state
of Maine. The Maine bovs were wid
awske, and as soon ss they struck his!
track there, they raised an almighty shout j
and headed hitn off. He then sheared j
off to New Hampshire, where they are;
pretty much all fox and there foraepellj
look breath. But hearing the coining
shout he struck for Vermont in hopes the
" Gieen Mountings" would furnish a ki-
ver, but they were all awske there, and :
( aoout ouuu ioiu jineu in .nr cnase, anu:

he could get out on'i. Well," thinks'
he. "this is pretty lite work, aud I'm off
South agin, for they mual be friendly to,
I " ...
me there, seeing as how I tell d all the
foxes to be civil to the Southern Chick-,
ens," snd so he slip! along 10 Georgia.
The Georgia folks, however, not liking
the natur of the breed, had already called
their fox hunters together, aod on the
first show of a trsek they all opened and
about 5.000 give chase there in a most
noble side, and ha turned tsil and ran
towards the middle atatee. In passing
through the old North Slate of Carolioa,
be finds things too wido awake there to
