The 1Yay with Some People.
Deacon S once employed a cob
bier to take a few stitches in a boot, for
Vll KtiYf sift Via .vas r r 1 .- M
dollar. The demand was considered
exhorbitant, but the deacon was not a
man to nave trouble with his ncirm
bor on a trifling matter, to without a
word of objection it was cancelled.
'All will come round right in the
end," he said to himself.
Next morning the deacon, who was
a farmer, was on his way to his field
" witlj oxen and plough, when the cob
bler came out 01 his shop and accosted
mm.
'Good morning, deacon; you'rejust
the man l hoped to &ee. lhe case is,
I've hired the field yonder, and am
. : . ft ... : i 1 . l a. i . . i t r
no farmer myself, I wish you would
ton and give me eomelhlng of an in
eicht into the business."
The ether was about to excuse hlm-
elf, for he felt particularly anxious to
tinlsu a piece of ploughing that day,
which he could not if detained at all.
when remembering the boot mending
thought ne: "The aiiair is coming
right so soon. Here is ru opportunity
for illustrating the Golden Kule, and
returning good for evil. I will render
the assistance he needs, and when
askea what's to pay, will answer
Nothing, sir, nothing. I never make
an account of these little neighborly
kindnesses.' 'I hat will remind him
cf yesterday." i
fco the deacon readily consented to
do as requested ; and going over to the
field, commenced and finished sowing
a l.iti &Jip1 cit crnfn cparrplv thinlrirnr.
- -"- . J tT
. meantime, of how his team was stand
ing idle in the cool of the day; but
glorying In anticipation of the smart
his neighbor would suffer- from, the
living coals about to be heaped upon
his head. The employer, who, seated
on a pile of stones in the centre of the
field, had" watched the process in si
lence, now rose to his feet, and very
deliberately advanced towards the ob
liging farmer.
"Now for my revenge," thought
the latter, seeing him about to speak;
but the other only carelessly remarked:
"It isn't much to do a thing when one
knows how,"
The deacon made no rcplv, but stood
awaiting the question, "How much
do you ask for your labor?". He
waited in vain, however; the question
was not asked. The other began to
Fpeak on difTerent topics, and the
farmer, unwilling to lose more time,
turned and hurried away to where he
had left his team. He had gone some
distance along the road, when a
voice was heard calling:
'JJallo, deacon. Hold on, there a
xninute."
The deaccn turned his head, and the
"He's just thought of it," said the
deacon to hiraielf, half impatient at
being again stopped. "My triumph is
likely w cost about && much as it's
trortn; but I'll have it after all. Urge
t he may, I won't take a single dime.
Bo saying he secured his oxen to a
Jwst by the roadside, and ran back as
ax as the wall, against the oposite side
of which the farmer was carelessly
leaning.
"Why, how you puff, deacon! there
is no special haste called for, I merely
thought to ask whether you don't im
agine we shall have rain soon. You
farmers pay more attention to 'these
things than we mechanics do."
The deacon coughed a full minute,
and then answered that he really
"couldn't say, but it seemed pretty
near cool enough to snow.", And
having given this opinion, he once
more bet his faco farmward ; musing
as he went, whether it might not have
been well to have attached to the Gol
den Rule a modifying clause, suited to
dealing with" such people as his neigh
bor of the awl and last.
The deacon loves, to this day. to tell
the story, and laugh over it ; but he
never fails to add: "Well, well, it en
ded just as it should; inasmuch as I
was wickedly calculating and rejoic
ing over my neighbor's humiliation."
Decision In the TTooIey Butler
Case. . ,
Baltimore, Oct. 31.
In the case of C. W. Wooley ar.d
Kumberlv & Bro. in the Supreme
Court of Baltimore city, against Gen.
Butler, a decision was given to-day by
Judere Dobbin on motions to vacate
the summons and declare them illegal.
The opinion was lengthy, and conclu
ded as follows :
I am of the opinion that the privi
leges of Senators and Representatives
secured to them by the constitution of
the United States exempt them only
from an actual arrest of their persons
or service upon them of such process
es, the disregard of which would ex
pose them to an attachment for con
tempt or other personal molestations.
As these cases involve none of these
consequences I 6hall overrule the
cases.
