ItratHtANCK. ' I'OLIIBtl ■ 7 THURSDAY JULY 9, 1874. A attt drier ia lit !*»»•»■ Oar old friend Judge Tom Ferrer, of [ Lftfce ProTidence, »ho ie known through, out the Bteteee e lewjer and jarlct of •ainent abilities, end ■ gentlemen of loreble cbueoter, telleet hie awn expenee, end with the keeaeet gaeto, e ilory wtiioh we think too good lo loee. It »tbet eoure yeetm ego while riding ougb one of the pretUeet dintriote of >th Louieiene, he oeair, about eun- own, to e ereeK, which wee to deep es * neceeultete e ewiaioiing feet. The ge, being e ineu of vigorous end evinci- determiuetion, no eooner realized •Us emergency then be promptly die- mounted, undressed himself with greet dispatch, end ettired only in his high B ag bet end e pair of speotsoles, bestrode s gallant eob end urged him to the ven- tiro. After n desperate struggle the other lido wee gained, end the Judge again dis mounting, this time with e profound sigh . of relief, wee about to- resume his integu- rt moots, when the hone, prompted by tame dleboliael spirit, started from hie mde end trotted slowly down the road. Of oourse, the Judge had no recourse bnt to trot after him | end thereupon en sued one of the moat remarkable end pio- tOresqae eheeee ever known in history or " tradition. The borne appeared to have no ' motive save tbet of keeping e certain die- >*mmae ahead of the Judge, end of finding lone comfortable barn-yard where he might nfiweh himself after suoh gigantic •Sorts. The Judge, whatever may have been bis ambitions, oonfined himself to 'khe effort of keeping the truant beast in fight. It must have been a eheerf ul end Invigorating experience to sap the Judge .trotting briskly along that smooth end I sandy road, his venerable plug hat pulled I over hie eyes end his a pec tael sa bobbing [ up end down upon his nose. The chess l wee long, and the moisture of great exer- ' tion would gather on his brow; end then, whsb he reached around for hie handker. chief, alas 1 it was not there. All of whioh had the effeot of impressing the Judge with bis very peculiar and unfortunate situation, end imparting renewed play end lightness to his legs. Ho the two bowled pletsshtly along, preserving a steady relative distance until just tut the setting sun wee redden ing the distant hilla sad touching the Judge’s mnnly form with gold, the horse whisked suddenly into s gets end bolted with eager beats toward s stable dimly visible in tbe diatunoe. The farm house sat in s grove of trees whose shadows made a great darkness round It, and from this grove, as the Judge was scampering furiously after bis horse end wardrobe, there issued sundry shsggy that it , under these circumstances, to assume that majesty of aapeot and fearlessness of gaze which is enrrently believed to be the oorrect tbiag with doge, znd zo, seeing s friendly gate y> poet oesr at band,he gave one,wild bound , i and reached its summit just as tbe lezneet and firoest of the dogs snapped viciously at bia legs. Whan the uproar had subsided, and tbe Judge, realizing tha absurdity of the sit- uatiou, bad regained his customary frame of mind, a female voiee was heard nailing from tbs house : ‘•Who’e there ?” “A fellow oreature ia distress, madam." “Where are yoq t" “On tbe gate poet.” said Ibe Judge, be ginning to enjoy the joke. “What can I do for you ?" It was too much. The Judge's old hu mor and qnizzioal love of merriment oame over him > “Call off these dogs, and bring me alt the Jig leases on tile place /” [JIT. 0. Picayune. A Calond Coachman's Man nf Civil Bights Toledo Onuunsmlal.] “Kurridge dis way—it eenia to any part ob da city." This was tha theme of a table hackmon St a recent publio gathering. “Only 95 cents to any part ob da city. Hab a kurridge. Bah T” and thus be so ooated every passing gentleman. Presently a well-dressed, gentlemanly appearing colored man come up, when all of a sudden tbe bookman ceased to oall out tbe “quarters,” and tamed so sa not to look the gentleman in tbe fees. “I would like to have a carriage," said the geutlemm. No response. “I would like to ride to the Boody House,” stepping nearer and speaking louder. "Hah 7" “Is this a hack ?” “No, asb; it’s u privets kurridge.” “Don't yon carry passengers ?” “Sometimes I dues, ash, aud sometimes I don’t sab," turning away again. • ^ “How much to drive me to the Boody?' aa<$ “Three dollars, ssh.” Bat tbe gentlemen got in, end seemed ’ to display bis faoe at the window as much , as possible as they drove along tbe streets. Bnt imagine tbs driver's dii * J ad look whan the gentleman bolpad JHf aalf out and handed a quarter for his fare, and, with a smile, passed into the hotel. Ha waa no other than Prof. Laroome, of Washington, whose Ufa had bean apant in tsaohing, and in efforts to elevate bis raoe. THE FOUNDATION PRICES!
