Times says i of : the: . late * : Mr Moorbonse-.frrAs. a lawyer^ bei might have taken sttTeadiDg poaition at tbe Bar had. h'e chbsen_to devote hiniself assiduously to the practice of his profession ; hut the branch of that- prof eaaion. for tfhich . he ; showed . the greatest aptitude was as a criminal advocate. His cross examinations were subtle and successful, and his addresses alwaya eloquent, original, and striking. His persuasive powers with a jury— and not only witha jury— may be instanced by a story that is told of bim in Canterbury. Being retained in a criminal case, the prisoner, just bef ore the indictment wsisreatt, told him that he did not think it wis any good fighting the case-^he thought h'e had better plead guilty ; but*Mr Moothonse suggested that, as it bad. gone: so: fai*, he; had better see it throngh. So: the . triil proceeded, . and terminated in an acquittal. On leaving the Court,, the prisoner came up gratefully and ■ doub'tingly and said, . "Weill, Mr Moorhouse, after what I've heard yoa lay about it, I don't believe I did it after all !? If you cannot afford to dress; haiidsdmeliy stick to simplicity; There are few things more pitifully abortivd than straining kfter effect with sham fine jfy, cheap laces, common flowers, bogusyjewellery, and all thie miserable fbake -believes which fill the trunks of people who strive to dress beyond their means.
