Sergeant Hill, the eminent lawyer, had a remarkable long nose. Being out riding one day, he was flung from his horse, and fell upon hia face in the mid-He of the road. A countryman, who saw the occurrence, ran hastily up, raised the sergeant from the dirt, and asked him whether he was much hurt. The lawyer replied in the negative. " I sec, zur," said the rustic, grinning," yer ploughshare sated ye."
