in tho year 1850, when San Francisco
was a village, and wanted printers more
than at-present. Tho briy quickly became
a man there ; anrj emimrkinir in the prin

prietor of an establishment” from which
sprang, in due time, a weekly newspaper,
ere long to bo followed by a daily, liis

The maid was wedded and tho inotheffof
two children. The printer bought his
presses and returned to California, a sad
der, not a wiser mail. Years progressed,
and he prospered. One day a lady visited
liis editorial rooms to lay her modest’ con
tribution on liis table, in hopes of getting
somo remuneration for it. Her story was
told briefly; her husband had come to
incrnl his- fortunes in the land of gold, and
had died, and she was left very poor, with
her two children to support. The editor
looke#at the lady a moment, then hand
ed her a doubloon. The astonished wo
man essayed to fitter thanks, but was wa

was liis early love, and he married her,
sold out his establishment, returned to

Jurors aud their Excuses.
There seems to be a decided aversion 011
the part of nWSt persons summoned to at
tend courts as jurors to serve, .and if all
who applied were excused there would be
but f-w trials, especially in the Quarter,
Sessions. Hjia sometimes amusing to hear
the excuses urged as a reason for not serv
ing. “Business that must he attended to”
a: always in order, aud, as Judge Thomp
son remarked yesterday, if all.thes<|peo
ple were relieved there would be no jurors.
Periodical attacks of sickness, inability to
sit long, foul atmosphere of the courts,
&c , are also advanced by tho reluctant
juror. But deafness is the favorite excuse.
Sometitflcs the applicant for favor on this
ground makes curiyjts mistakes. To one
who urg,ed this yesterday, in the Quarter
Sessions, Judge Thompson inquired, “Do
you lieu* me?” The immediate reply
was’ “l can hear tho noise, hut cau’t dis
tinguish what you sa yj” Tho answer
was.remarkable for one who could not hear
what ihc Judge said. Anpthe.r juror came
to tho bar of the court, and before any
questions were .put to him lie said to the
Judge. ‘‘l cau’t understand a word you
say.” Judge Thompson—“ Perhaps that
is my fault.” Juror—“ No. I can’t un
derstand, hut I can hear!” This unfor
tunate, individual was, allowed to stand
aside. One juror j.resumed too much on
the indulgence of the court. When liis
name Was called ho remarked to the
Judge: “Why, 1 was here in January
last, but your honor excuse I mo then.”
Judge Thompson* smiling, “That is area-
Ison why you should serve now.” And the
disnppointed,|seiitlcnian took a seat in the
