About the largest purple-top

John Miller. It tipped the beam at
eight pounds and when cut proved
4o be as firm and sweet as the best
of its variety. The turnip was raia ■

Spring plantation. I understand
hat Mr. Minhinnett has about 30 >
bushels of turnips and the same
number of bushels of very large
yams, raised on two acres of land

BORN TO BE A LAWYER.
What i* th* chief charaoteristic
of a born lawyer? Some p«opl*
fancy that it is audcity; but audasi
ty has. perhaps, spoiled a lawyer'*
success a* often a* it has made it.
Craftinets. another qua'ity often
attribute to lawyer* a* a class, is
as likely to get them into trouble
as it is to win them cases.
Thermal master-quality of a good
lawyer, according to many moders
authorities, i* a genius for details
—an ability to see through a case
to the uttrrmoat particular, and
keep evvrything in mind*, ready
foru*eatthe right moment. The
following story has probably been
told by more th in one lawyer to
illustrate this fact:
A lawyer advertised for a clerk.
The next morning his office was
crowded with applicants—all
bright, and many suitable.
He bade tnem wait until all
should arrive, and then ranged
them in a row and said he would
tell them a story, note their com
ments, aniT so judge whom he
would choose.
A certain farmer, began the law
yer, was troubled with a red squir
rel that got in through a hole in
his barn and stole his seed-corn.
He resolved to kill the squirr*! at
the first opportunity.
Seeing him go in at the hole one
noon, he took his shot-gun and
fired away. The first shot set the
barn on fire.
Did the barn bum? said one of
the hoys.
The lawyer without answer con
tinued: And seeing the barn on
fire, the farmer seized a pail of wa
ter and ran to put it out.
Did he put it out? asked anoth
er.
A? he passedjin-ide the door sku'
to and the barn was soon in flam
re W hen the hired girl rushed out
with more wafer—
Did they all burn up? said an
other boy.
The lawyer went on without an
swer, then the old lady came out,
and all was noise and confusion,
and everybody was trying to put
the fire out.
Did anyone burn up? said an
other.
The lawyer said : There that will
do; you have all shown great in
terest in the story.
But observing one little bright
eyed fellow in deep silence, he said :
Now, my little man, what have
you to say?
The little fellow blashed, grew
unea«y, and stammered out, “I
want to know what became of that
squirrel; that’s what I want to
know.”
You’ll do eaid the lawyer; vou
are my man . You have not }be» n

This dialogue took place over in
one corner of the Board of Trade*
where the table* are laden with pa
p*r tacks containing cample* of
grain.
