“ Parson Timothy,” said the Judge
to a colored mao, who bad just been
arraigned, “Jon are charged with
Hi jLfrr Thomson'* wife. I
havfjuown ybu for years, and bad
always considered you an upright
man. And now, sir, that you are ar
raigned on so terrible a charge, with
such overwhelming proof against you,
I must confess that my fnitb in the
colored part of humanity is greatly
shaken, by a severe chill from the dark
swamps of deception. As you expect
ouo day to be arraigned before a bar
from which there is no appeal, tell
mo, aro you , guilty ? Did you run
away with Deacon Thomson’s wife ?”
“ Judge,", replied Timothy, after
fioverafoiinnies’ reflection, “ it would
take me some time to splaiu dis mat
ter ter tie satisfaction ob de court.—
Bat I’ll try. I is a preacher, as yer-
solf well knows, an, has assisted many
a man in lindin’ the Lamb—”
“Yes,” broke in a witness, “an’yer
foun’ my sheep an’ stole it last fall,
and I ken probe it.’*
“ Silence 1” thundered the Judge,
“or you will be stood on your bead.
The prisonor shall bo protected. The
Constitution of the United States de
clares in italics that prisoners are en
titled to the respect and floral tributes
of evory man, woman and child in the
country.”
“ You are mighty Coufod, Judge,”
said the prisoner. ‘As I was going
to remark I lnb Deacon Thomson liko
a red nude luboats. Visitin’his house
often, I seed dat his wife gib him a
groat deal oh ’noyauces. I seed sep-
euter somethin’ was done, dar would
ho a split in do family. After study-
iu’ do question scbornl days I-was in
spired to remove de ’oman. De im
pulse was so strong dat I couldn’t,
shake it off. Affairs grow wusser an’
wussor. At last I weut. ober to do dea
con’s house an’ roraovod do ’oman.”
The prosecuting attorney then read
suverul affectionate letters that had
been written by tho prisoner.
“Judge,” exclaimed tho prisoner,
dat prosecutin' nttornoy is a fool an’ I
owe de witness ten cents for board.
(Sensation in tho Court room). I w„s
inspired to move de ’oman.”
“ Were yon over crazy?” nsked the
counsel for defonso.
“I should Tomark,” answered the
prisoner, “I flung a hatchot nt ole
marster’foro do war, nu’ afterwards
butt my bead agin a bcccb tree till it
throbbed liko a stone-bruise. I is a
high toned niggav, an’ of I ha.tent
cum ter Littlo Rock I might, hnb staid
away. Don’t let bow-legged Ike test
ify, fur I borrowed a shirt from him.”
Hero a frisky negro stepped up and
struck the prisonor with a hoop-polo.
Tho prisonor, in his oxcitcmont,
called tho.Jiulgo a linr. Recess was
then taken, during which time tho
prisoner ate a boiled cabbage. After
recess,the prisonor acknowledged that
ho owed another witnoss ten cents.—

A GREAT CITT PAPER.
Tho working force on a great city
journal like the New York Tribune and
Herald is systematized, graded and is
almost as oocnplex as that of tire munici
pal. government, Thcrt is, first, the
editor-in-chief, sorhetime*, but not al
ways, part owner of the journal; sec
ond, the managing editor j then follow
the night editor, news editor, editorial
writers, the literary and agricultural
editors, the dramatic, musical and art
critics, the man whose business it is to
make up columns of gleanings, of per
sonals, of educsdirmal or art note* j the
sporting, charitablo and fashion editors;
the necrologist, who keeps biographies
of overy living man or woman of
note in his pigeon-holes ready to pub
lish the hour of their death; then
comes the city editor with his huge staff
of reporters busy night and day in
searching for items of local interest.
Each of tho heads of the departments,
indeed, lias usually his assistants, their
number and ability depending on the
means of the journal.
Outside of tho office are tho large
corps of editorial writers and critics,
who usually are paid by the column,
and beyond these again the correspond
ents and occasional writers, which, in
the case of at least one New York jour
nal, aro numerous enough to people a
village, and are found all over tho world,
from i he pole to tho equator. This vast
force belong solely to tho editorial de
partment ; the business columns of the
paper aro under totally separate man
agement.
A LITTLE MJHPltlST.
He walked into the office this morning
looking much like a man pretty well
satislied with general results, and sii.l:
“ Can I see the editor ? ”
He was shown that eminently • id
adjunct to a newspaper at once.
“Good morning, sir,” ho eh i.e-
gan.
“ Momin',” said tho editor.
“I came in,” ho proceeded, “to tell
you of n misprint in tho paper.”
“Yes? What is it?”
“ Well, you see I sent a notice nround
yesterday that Mr. Smith had just been
murriod, and your compositor, 1 seo,
has got it ‘Mr. Smith has just lieen
martyred,’but I guess it don’t hardly
make enough difference to change it.”
Tho editor scratched his bond a min
ute, and thought of house-cleaning and
other female eccentricities, and told tho
visitor of course it didn’t, and ho went
away whistling, “ Why should the spirit
of mortal be proud ? "—SteubenvitU

An editor of an Illinois paper took a
boy to learn the printer’s trade. He was
careful to impress ujxin his mind tin- ne
cessity of otiedienco and of doing every
thing thoroughly. After preliminary
instruction tho lad was given a stick
and rule and was taken to a ease to
wrestle with a piece of copy. The ed
itor went off to a ]>olitical convention.
The other boys in the office paid Imt lit
tle attention to tho new recruit, and
when tho editor returned half a day later
ho found tho boy down uikmi his knees
searching for something on ttie floor.
“What's the matter, Johnny?" said ho.
“Why I drojijiod a type liefore I got
tho first lino set,” replied the boy, “and
you told mo liefore I weut to work that
whenever I dropped a type, I must stop
and pick it up liefore I did anything
else. I've been looking for that con
founded type all day and I can’t find it.’-
Need wo say that boy succeeded in
business? Ho grew np, weut West, slid
became President of an editorial asso
ciation.
