By Visit to Charlotte of Mr. Gallant, of Gastonia. Charlotte News, 3rd. Mr. W. L. Gallant, of Gastonia, spent yesterday in Charlotte. He came to Bee his brother, Mr. John Gallant, who is sick at his home on South Brevard street. Mr. Gallant was the father of the late 'Mr. Henry Gallant, who was drowned at Norfolk many years ago. He was assistant clerk to Register of Deeds Cobb, during the lartter's 20 years tenure of that office. Mr. Gal lant was a member of the Hornet's Nest Riflemen and went with the company to Norfolk on a trip. While out bathing he went out too far and was drowned. Almost at the hour that Mr. Gallant was drowned, his first cousin, Mr. Robert Cooper, an other popular young man of the city, died. The funerals were held at the same time and the Interments were both in the graveyard ait Steel Creek. The funeral procession with the two hearses and long line of carriages was the most memorable that was ever seen to leave Charlotte.

A well known English barrister. whom we will call Mr. K.. was a most eloquent speaker, and bis volcet par tlcularly iu its pathetic tones, was melody Itself. His power over a Jury was astonishing, and it was very sel dom that be failed to secure a ver dict for his client On one occasion, however, he was beaten and in such a ridiculous man ner that a crowded court and even the grave judge were convulsed with laughter at the burlesque of the result. The case was a charge of murder. Mr. K. was for the defense. His peroration was exceedingly touching and beautiful. Gentlemen of the Jury." said be. 'if you can find this unhappy prisoner at the bar guilty of the" crime with which he is charged after the argil menu to the contrary which I have laid before you. pronounce your fatal verdict. Send him to the dungeon, .waiting the death which be is to re ceive at your hands. Then go to your families, lay your heads on your pi) lows and sleep, if you can!" The effect of the closing words was really thrilling. But presently the counsel for the prosecution rose and said: Gentlemen of the Jury, I should despair, after the affecting speech which has been made to you by my learned brother, of saying anything to do away with his eloquence. 1 never beard Mr. K. speak that better than when he spoke It now Once 1 beard him speak It In a case of stealing at Leeds and again in a case at Manches ter, and the last time I beard it was when two men were tried for pocket picking. But I never knew him to speak it so affectlugly an Just now.' This was a poser. The jury looked at one another, whispered together, and the speaker saw instinctively that he had them. He stopped at once, closing with a single remark: If you can't see, gentlemen of the jury, that this speech fits all cases then there's no use my saying any thing more'." And there wasn't He bad made bis case and got his verdict Exchauge. OLD TIME MANNERS. Rules of Good Behavior In the Early Eighteenth Century. In a work entitled "Youth's Beha vior." published In 170C. there Is this Injunction to young gentlemen, "Put off thy Cap or Hat to persons of Desert as are Churchmen. Justices and the like, turning the Cap or Hat to thy self wards; making a Reverence, bow ing thyself more or less according to the custom of the better bred." In the midst of remarks which indi cate tbe utmost refinement we come suddenly upon such directions as this: " 'Tis not manners as soon as you are set at Table to bawl out, 'I eat none of this. I eat none of that. I care for no Rabbit; 1 love nothing that tastes of Pepper, Nutmeg. Onyons,'" etc. After stating that "some have been so refined In Foreign parts that they will neither be covered, nor sit with their backs to tbe picture of an emi nent Person' the writer goes on to remark that "there are some who eat with that eagerness and Impatience, they eat themselves out pf breath and will pant like a broken winded .Horse, but these are not to be indured." lie also warns his pupil thus: "When you are talking to any one do not Continually punch bim in the side, as some people do; -who. after every sentence keep asking the person they are conversing with, 'Did I not tell yon so 7 'What aay you. sirT and in the meantime they are every moment jogging and thrusting him with their elbows, which cannot be considered as a mark of respect."
