And calm the icy, foaming sea t Wiibin these narrow walls I pine Oft on tbe sunny bills to gor; Where the wild flower and running vino And the green grass are wont to grow. I long to tread the fields alone, Where gliding streams, with voices mild, Murmur for aye tbe quiet tone That tfatilled me even wben a child. I long to roam tbe pathless woods Where all day long tbe shadows lie ; To ahoot within iheir solitudes, And hear the fainting echo die I Or lie upon some rooky steep, And linger in the shining sun Long hours, within tbe valleys deep, To hear the laughing watebrs,run. But more tban all, I long to guide The ploughshare in the fragrant soil. And feel once more the joy and pride, Tbe jocund health of peaceful toil. I heed the Summer's beauteous bloom, And Autumn's gorgeous offering.

" ' J tfewro4»«iitof<h A comapondent of the New Orleans delta thus describes the remarkable free and easy war in which justice i*administered in California: ' Sometime in December lost, whilst Jod^e was giving hjladeciaion upon the odmissibiUtj of some eyidencei one of the lawyers rose, and said: "Your deciaiotV is perfirctlj ridiculous. Von ju*t decided the rjuestipn the ether way." Judge—I fineyrtu ten dollarsforimpertinence. Counsel—Here is the ten dollars—(at the same time throwing over the gold piece of that denom- ination, which lodged in his honor's bosom, anti caused him to unbutton before he conld jet his flue.; Some other question soon after arose, and whilst I he Judge was giving hjs decision, with becoming gravity, the following scene occurred : Juror—"Sheriff—(not wishing to interrupt the Judge)—go up to the City Hotel and bring me down a brandy cock-tail, and one of the beat ci- gars." Judge—"Sir, hadn't you better wait until I am through ?" Juror—"Certainly, I'll wait; but I'm most con- founded thirsty." The juror then turned to Col. Weller. who was associate counsel for the defence, when the follow- ing dialogue ensued: Juror—"Colonel, don't you know me ? I'm from Warren county, Ohio, and was introduced to you two years ago, by Tom Corwin, at the Pearl street Hotel, Cincinnati. I used to associate*with gen- tlemen wben home, but here they put me on their, infernal juries." Col. W.—™ Well, we will soon be through with the case, and yon will be relieved.'' Juror—"Yon used to bo counted tome in tbe way of a bear-fight, in Ohio; and I hope you will give tbe lawyers, on the other side, particular fits— they deserve it." Col. W—"Oh, no! we get along very peacea- bly. I've just come into die case, and have not yet beon able to determine under what law weare trying it." Juror—"Why, the law of common senge—the only law worth afiganywhere." In arguing the case before the jury, one of the counsel for the defense, after speaking of tho man- ner in which California had been acquired, «fec, al- luded to the vast number of Spanish law books produced on tbe other side, and exclaimed—"his eye in fine frczy rolling"—"Here, air, upon the virgin soil of California, with the meridian ami of the nineteenth century shining upon us, are we to be governed by authorities printed at Maarid two hundred years ago, and recently dug np by aome legal antiquarian from the ruinaof the Spanish In- quisitution ? Will you, gentlemen of the Jury t re- cognize ,this as law ?"' "' - Juror—"No sir-**—t»ot by nr—sight." It is scarcely necessary to say that the counsel £oo* closed, and. the defendant gained his suit,'' . cell John Thbmpaon, F A 6 H I O N A J3LIS TAILOR.

A writ, ing table, with a row of serious looking vol- umes upon it, a few packets of papers tied with red tape,, together with a profusion of letters strewn over Its surface, comprised al- most everything worthy of comment in tb.Hr temple of justice. On tbe occasion of our introducing tbe read- er into this provincial courthouse, Mr. Bease- ley was sitting in his chair, with his back to a large wood fire that roared good humored- 1y up the wfde chimney, making a lusty cho- rus with the bleak December wind that grum- bled and blustered round the house and over head, as if bent on resisting the genial assent of the hearty flame that licked its wary way upward in despite of its surly opposition, and between the two hept up a rumbling warfare in the capacious flue. Mr. Beaaeleyy we said, sat with his back to the crackling ire,rnaking calculations on his. ringers, and looking ab- stractedly through tho opposite, window, on tbe shower of elect and snow that drove past in incessant whirls, and kept up a ceaseless pelting on the large glass panes, as if knock- ing to DO admitted to the cheery fire-side. Mr. Beaseley was aroused from his state of mental abstraction by'bia servant announcing that a poor woman who ha'd called twice be- fore, wished to see liim, td obtain'some relief. Mr. Beaseley gave orders'to have her shown up. The individual who presentry entered the apartment was a pale emaciated female of five or sL*>and-twenty, but who,'judged by her hollow and anxious countenance, would have well passed for forty. A thin calico dress hung wet and clinging to her ancles; her shoes, by long servitude, worn bare, were fastened by tapes across her instep, and as she crossed the room left the broad marks of her Teet upon the boards, and the water oozed at every motion from the saturated leather.— Hound her neck was pinned a' scanty trian- gular shawl, that barely hid her bosom, and only partially protected jt from the. invading storm. An old bonet, so large that it almost hid her shrunken features, completed the mea- gre habiliametits of this once neat and come- ly woman. After somd qnestioritrtg; in reply to "Which the poor woman eXplairicd -thai her frasband was lying at home starving, nnd'that the ob- ject of her application was to Obtain mpre immediate relief than possible by' the neces- sary slow legal process, she obtained from Mr. Beaseley a tnfle of money, and an order for a gallon of flour. - With a trembling band and shivering frame —for her wet clothes had struck a chill to her very blood—the woman undid the heavy latch, Jtndclosing the porta! behind.her, stood again in the pitiless vtorm and unprotected way. Pulling the mockery of a shawl closer over her bosom? she harried quickly down the avenue that led from the niagtstnate'e house, and had just reached the gates that opened oh the village street, witen a carriage, driven with speed, rapidly turned the angle; tand before the driver, who kepi his head down to shield his face from the violence of the sleet; could see the coming figure, or arrest his horses, the poor woman was dashed to the ground by the pole of the.rehiele, and thrown several yards from -the wheel into a pool of water that had collected at the park entrance. The carriage was instantly stopped, and a genfje/nan alighting, hastened forward, and raising theJemnle from the ground-,, express- ed iri'uie kindest manner, his regret and 'pain at the misfortune. *I am not very much hurt, thank you. sir, only very frightened,' shfr saidj faintlyfas' the gentleman led her to the steps of the carriage.

With his long skin- ny fingers he had just Bet the finished work- manship upon the tray as his wife entered; and he turned his gratified gaze from his com- pleted task, with mournful inquiry arid affec- tionate solicitude, upon his drenched and not less miserable wife. 'You are wet and cold, Mary, and-there is no fire to warm you,' said the husband mourn- fully, as with a deep sigh he glanced at the few white ashes strewn over the broad hearth as his wife divested herself of her shawl and bonnet.

I long to roam tbe pathless woods Where all day long tbe shadows lie ;

To ahoot within iheir solitudes, And hear the fainting echo die I

Or lie upon some rooky steep, And linger in the shining sun

Long hours, within tbe valleys deep, To hear the laughing watebrs,run.

But more tban all, I long to guide The ploughshare in the fragrant soil.

And feel once more the joy and pride, Tbe jocund health of peaceful toil.

I heed the Summer's beauteous bloom, And Autumn's gorgeous offering.

And winter pale witb storm and gloom; But most I love the gentle Spring I

A comapondent of the New Orleans delta thus describes the remarkable free and easy war in which justice i*administered in California: '

Sometime in December lost, whilst Jod^e was giving hjladeciaion upon the odmissibiUtj of some eyidencei one of the lawyers rose, and said: "Your deciaiotV is perfirctlj ridiculous. Von ju*t decided the rjuestipn the ether way."

Judge—I fineyrtu ten dollars for impertinence. Counsel—Here is the ten dollars—(at the same

time throwing over the gold piece of that denom­ination, which lodged in his honor's bosom, anti caused him to unbutton before he conld jet his flue.; •

Some other question soon after arose, and whilst I he Judge was giving hjs decision, with becoming gravity, the following scene occurred :

Juror—"Sheriff—(not wishing to interrupt the Judge)—go up to the City Hotel and bring me down a brandy cock-tail, and one of the beat ci­gars."

Judge—"Sir, hadn't you better wait until I am through ?"

Juror—"Certainly, I'll wait; but I'm most con­founded thirsty."

The juror then turned to Col. Weller. who was associate counsel for the defence, when the follow­ing dialogue ensued:

Juror—"Colonel, don't you know me ? I'm from Warren county, Ohio, and was introduced to you two years ago, by Tom Corwin, at the Pearl street Hotel, Cincinnati. I used to associate*with gen­tlemen wben home, but here they put me on their, infernal juries."

Col. W.—™ Well, we will soon be through with the case, and yon will be relieved.''

Juror—"Yon used to bo counted tome in tbe way of a bear-fight, in Ohio; and I hope you will give tbe lawyers, on the other side, particular fits— they deserve it."

Col. W—"Oh, no! we get along very peacea­bly. I've just come into die case, and have not yet beon able to determine under what law weare trying it."

Juror—"Why, the law of common senge—the only law worth a fig anywhere."

In arguing the case before the jury, one of the counsel for the defense, after speaking of tho man­ner in which California had been acquired, «fec, al­luded to the vast number of Spanish law books produced on tbe other side, and exclaimed—"his eye in fine frczy rolling"—"Here, air, upon the virgin soil of California, with the meridian ami of the nineteenth century shining upon us, are we to be governed by authorities printed at Maarid two hundred years ago, and recently dug np by aome legal antiquarian from the ruinaof the Spanish In-quisitution ? Will you, gentlemen of the Jury t re­cognize ,this as law ?"' "' - Juror—"No sir-**—t»ot by nr—sight." It is scarcely necessary to say that the counsel £oo* closed, and. the defendant gained his suit,'' .

- The ntagbtni.cy « t boll of jndicatore in i which Mr. Beaselej usuajly held the scales ' of justice, wafl a large and, formal room, witit a few ponderous straight backed chairs rang­ed along the sjde of th> apartment. A writ, ing table, with a row of serious looking vol­umes upon it, a few packets of papers tied with red tape,, together with a profusion of letters strewn over Its surface, comprised al­most everything worthy of comment in tb.Hr temple of justice.

On tbe occasion of our introducing tbe read­er into this provincial courthouse, Mr. Bease-ley was sitting in his chair, with his back to a large wood fire that roared good humored-1 y up the wfde chimney, making a lusty cho­rus with the bleak December wind that grum­bled and blustered round the house and over head, as if bent on resisting the genial assent of the hearty flame that licked its wary way upward in despite of its surly opposition, and between the two hept up a rumbling warfare in the capacious flue. Mr. Beaaeleyy we said, sat with his back to the crackling ire,rnaking calculations on his. ringers, and looking ab­stractedly through tho opposite, window, on tbe shower of elect and snow that drove past in incessant whirls, and kept up a ceaseless pelting on the large glass panes, as if knock­ing to DO admitted to the cheery fire-side.

Mr. Beaseley was aroused from his state of mental abstraction by'bia servant announcing that a poor woman who ha'd called twice be­fore, wished to see liim, td obtain'some relief. Mr. Beaseley gave orders'to have her shown up.

The individual who presentry entered the apartment was a pale emaciated female of five or sL*>and-twenty, but who,'judged by her hollow and anxious countenance, would have well passed for forty. A thin calico dress hung wet and clinging to her ancles; her shoes, by long servitude, worn bare, were fastened by tapes across her instep, and as she crossed the room left the broad marks of her Teet upon the boards, and the water oozed at every motion from the saturated leather.—

Hound her neck was pinned a' scanty trian­gular shawl, that barely hid her bosom, and only partially protected jt from the. invading storm. An old bonet, so large that it almost hid her shrunken features, completed the mea­gre habiliametits of this once neat and come­ly woman.

After somd qnestioritrtg; in reply to "Which the poor woman eXplairicd -thai her frasband was lying at home starving, nnd'that the ob­ject of her application was to Obtain mpre immediate relief than possible by' the neces­sary slow legal process, she obtained from Mr. Beaseley a tnfle of money, and an order for a gallon of flour.

- With a trembling band and shivering frame —for her wet clothes had struck a chill to her very blood—the woman undid the heavy latch, Jtndclosing the porta! behind.her, stood again in the pitiless vtorm and unprotected way. Pulling the mockery of a shawl closer over her bosom? she harried quickly down the avenue that led from the niagtstnate'e house, and had just reached the gates that opened oh the village street, witen a carriage, driven with speed, rapidly turned the angle; tand before the driver, who kepi his head down to shield his face from the violence of the sleet; could see the coming figure, or arrest his horses, the poor woman was dashed to the ground by the pole of the.rehiele, and thrown several yards from -the wheel into a pool of water that had collected at the park entrance. The carriage was instantly stopped, and a genfje/nan alighting, hastened forward, and raising theJemnle from the ground-,, express­ed iri'uie kindest manner, his regret and 'pain at the misfortune.

*I am not very much hurt, thank you. sir, only very frightened,' shfr saidj faintly fas' the gentleman led her to the steps of the carriage.

'Poor creature, she is' wet through P ex­claimed a soft and sympathising voice from the coa*ch.- 'Tell iia xvbire you live,-rhy gorJd woman, and we will drive you home.',

'Oh no, thank yon, madam! It is not very for, and I think l e a n walk now. Don't let me keep you io the raint madam! Thank you, I am better now.'

'Poor creature! I am sure she is h u r t -Send for a surgeon, Charles, and let her be taken care of till I can visit ber.myaejU, To bo oat on such a day as this, and so thinly dressed! I am certain you are hurt(P~~

With his long skin­ny fingers he had just Bet the finished work­manship upon the tray as his wife entered; and he turned his gratified gaze from his com­pleted task, with mournful inquiry arid affec­tionate solicitude, upon his drenched and not less miserable wife.

'You are wet and cold, Mary, and-there is no fire to warm you,' said the husband mourn­fully, as with a deep sigh he glanced at the few white ashes strewn over the broad hearth as his wife divested herself of her shawl and bonnet.
