Isaac Wilson, whose figure-head is of the pure (tuinea style, who can boast of heels that never tainted with tar. and who has a pair of lips, that from their blubber fatness would tempt the appetite of a northern Esquimanx, was among the prisoners before the Police Court this morning. The witness against him was Emiiy Baily, and as Deputy Marshal Giffin called and called the said Emily in vain, Isaae rolled up the whites “ob he eye”’ cent triumph. ‘+ I know she not be hearah, dat am a fac,” said he in a loud whisper. But another witness was found in the shape of a watchman, and Ike discovered he had not made much by the change. The officer said that as he was tramping his beat last night. he saw the aforesaid Isaac chasing a lady of color along the street. Hehad a hoop pole in his hand, was excited. and seemed determined to lampoon the weneh if he caught her. He was i her quite closely when the watchman nabbed him « Dat am a fac,”’ said Ike. “Itis?”’ asked the Court you chasing a woman for?” “Well, you see, boss,"” promptly responded he, “I'se a fireman on de ribber, dat am a fac. Yesterday I comes to port on de Yanky. and den I leabs de Yankee. dat am a fac.” Why did I leab de Yankee? Kase I gets a better berf on de Queen. de bully boat, wot I run on afore, dat am # fac.

Igoes hunts up Miss Emily, and I ask her for my tree dollars, dat am a fac. She say, “to way, nigga, don’t bover dis chile!" “Den I gets a hoop pole. den I get after her wid de pole, and den—ke-bi' ke- bi -—de watchmou kotch me—ke-hi ! ke-hi! ke- hi'—by golly, dat ara s tae.’’ The Judge was much wmused with this nar- se be *- You appear tobe an honest darkie,”’ said the Judge. « Dat am a fac."’ was the response “ Will you go right to work if we let you off?’" “I will surah, dat am a fac “Then go.” “ Bet your life I gits, dz¢ am a fac,” said he. he harried from Court —Exchange. in magnifi- “ Well, what was APPLATDING PReacners.—In the fourth cen- tury the preachers were applauded during the delivery of their discourses, after the ananner of popular lectures and political assemblies in mod- eru times.
