many rare treasures in his libra

his autograph album. One of the
interesting things said to he con

which the following anecdote i*

it. Mr. Webster said: “No J

as Mr. William Constance, a per

In the distance of a neighboring

not given testified to a boyish in-

judgment now condemned, but
for which act on their part they
most humbly beg for forgiveness
of parents of parlies at law, as the
act committed was without malice

Mr. Smilax then made known
