An Executor is not' bound to give the idow of his Testator any advice as to w her action at all. If, however, he con sents to become her adviser and assumes such position of trust and confidence,' he ia bound that the advice given should not only; be honest, in the sense that it was net knowingly ' atid wilfully false, but also, that ii should be correct and true, as far as by any' reasonable efforts on his pit. he. could ascertain the truth. (Bolin, Ex'r, vs. Barker.) A defendant, under our act of Assem bly, has a right to have more than one of ?iid counsel, or. all that represent him, heard by tbe Judge and jury io his de fence upon his trial in the Superior Court. The pttiding Judge has no authority to hear but one, or to restrict the counsel iu their remarks to any particular leugth of time. In an action on a bond, wherein eight per eent is named as tbu rate of interest, but it is n.n expressed to be given for the loan of money as the consideration r It wa held, that the entire interest was not lorieueo, out tuai tue piatiitin was enti lied to recover interest ou such obligation at the rate of sixer cent. The penalty of forfeiture of the entire interest attaches in only two cases. First, when no rate is named in the obligation and a greater rate than six per cent id reserved ; and second, when a greater rate than eight percent is named. (Coble vs. Shoffuer, Adm'r.) A plaintiff after a judgment in' his fa vor, has no. right to have the defendant's laud sold without first having the defen dant's homestead laid off. The excess, only after the homestead has been as signed to the defendant, is subject to ex ecution sale. ASK THEM !

An Incident in the Life of Carl Schurz. Schurz, in hi8-fatherlanj, was thetn dent of a celebrated philosopher, political thiuker, and writer. During the revolu tionary troubles jin Germany, both, the professor and his ipupil were taken prison ers, but Schurj! soon after effected his own escape and fled to Italy. The democratic cause failed in Germany, but Kiukel was still a prisoner. Schurz iu his exile de termined to attempt the liberation of bis teacher. He acquired a perfect knowl edge of the ltalian4auguage, and, adopt ing the Italian costume and manners, proeured a hand-organ and proceeded on his tour among the German prisons, to find out, if happily he could, the where abouts of Kiukel. There iwas a certain song, which in the olden time always charmed tbe professor, and ever drew from him some response. This song, among others, Schurz eaog in his prison visita tions.

Moreover, the explo?ionf Sunday was merely the end of one stage in tbe prog ress of the work of clearing away tho Uallett'a Point reef. I'he first stage Was when the excavation was completed and charged. The second was th oxnl.U. of the blaBt and the breaking up of the tock. The third will be the removing of the shattered rock.

If any of them chance to weigh fifty or a hun- dred tors, there is no apparatus in the harbor that can lift them, except the powerful derrick of the Department of j-ruc&a. The probabilities are that it will be a year before the work of grappling these rocks ba gone far enough to make any appreciable improvements in navigation. Meautime, it will be necessary, in order to enable the carrying on of the grappling operations, to buy out the bottom cor : ered by the explosion. Consequently,, far the time being, instead of there being: a larger; channel for vessels to pass through, there will be a smaller one, Gen.

HOW TO FIND OUT WHOM ANY GIVEN PERSON WILL MARRY. Itdon't reqeire an astrologer, a medium, or a gypsy, with a dirty pack of cards. It is very simple lines in a nntsholl, and can be expressed in a few words. They are these : fT The last person you would naturally think of.! If a girl expresses her fondness for majestic men, with large whiskers, make up your mind that she will marry a man with none. II Bite declares that "mind,Lis all she looks for, expect to seo her stand before the altar with a pretty fellow who has just sense enough to tie a cravat bow. If, on the contrary, she declares that she must have" a handsome husband, look about you for the plainest person in the circle of her acquaintance,' and declare "that is the man," for it will be. Men are almost as bad. The gentlemen who desires a wife with a mind and -a mission, marries a lisping baby who screams at the sight of a mouse, and bides her face wheu she hears a sudden knock at the door. And the gentleman who dreaded any thing like! strong-mindedness, exults in the fact that his wife is exactly everything be had declared be defeated If any girl says of one, "Marry him-L I'd rather die," look upon the affair as settled and expect cards to the wedding, of those two people. If a man remarks of a lady, "Not my style at all," await patiently the appear ance of his name in the matrimonial column in connection with that lady's. And if any two people declare them selves friends, and nothing more," you may know what comes next. There is no hypocrisy io all this and sucb matches arejnvariable the happiest. People do not know themselves, and make great mistakes about their own intentions. I Love is' terribly perplexing when he first begins to upset one's theories, and when his arrow first pierces the Ifcert, there is such a fluttering iherethat It is hard to guess the cause. Besides, man proposes and God dis. poses j aud it is the "I don't know what" with which people fall in love, and not those peculiarities which could be given in a passport. -A little Swedishghl, while walkings with her father on a starry night, became absorbed in 'coutemplatiou of the skies.
