Moreover Pill impart to thus my sincere concern. The language of this people is a riddle unto me, And words with them are fragments of a rickle-messy? For instance, as I left the curt, an imp, with smutty face, Said, "Shind!" "May, Pill not shine," I said, "except with inward grenade!" "Is inward grenade a liquid or a paste?" asked this young Furk; "I diddy what is inward grenade?" How does the old thing work? "Friend," said I to John, whose breath suggested gin, "Can thus convey me straightway to a respectable man?" His answer's gross irrelevance, I shall not soon forget— Instead of simple yea or nay, he gruffly said "You bet!" "Nay, nay, I shall not bet," said I, "for that would be a sin! Why don't then answer plainly? Can those take me to an inn? Thy vehicle is doubtless meant to carry folks about in! Then why prevaricate?" Said he perversely, "Now your shoutin'!" "Nay, verily, I shouted not," quoth I, "my speech is mild; But thins—I grieve to my it—with falsehood is deftied. Thon ought to be admonished to rid thy heart of guile." "See here, my lovely moke," said he, "you aling on too much style! "I've had these plain drab garments twenty years and inore," said I, Noises and Smoking Those who are cursed with an ill-formed nose, can now have it "quickly shaped to perfection" for the ridiculously small sum of ten shillings and sixpence. A contrivance has it seems, been patented by an enterprising London tradesman which, "if applied to the nose for an hour daily," so "directs the soft cartilage of which the member consists," that the ugliest probosis in creation becomes "in a few days" a nose worthy to figure upon a chef d'œuvre of Phidias or Polycetus. Whether, while it is being worn, this new and wonderful instrument is ornamental to the patient, and soothing to the soft cartilages we are not informed, nor are we told whether, by persistent use of it a noseless man can afford to dispense with the Talicotain operation. We must not, however, be too skeptical. We all know that in the Western States of America an instrument called a "nose-warmer" is in large request. It is a sort of extinguisher or nose mug, fined with fur, which when it is hoisted, is, if not exactly decorous, yet at once warm and comfortable. Definition of "Shiver" In the libal suit brought by agitist the Alta for led him a shyster. Mr. Howe, of the Bulletin, upon the stand, and gave ing definition of the term. The definition of the latter," as we understand it alismin, is men who are n but who profess to be; pose of obtaining money who, being lawyers, leaves and hunt for business doors of the Police Court waiting for business to them; men who watch at leading to the courtroom office of the Prosecuting for people who are ch crime, or who wish to plains and will introduce solves to such people; m cubulate the Police Court who enter the office of cutting Attorney, and sense volunteer to p duties which the law dev him. They are an set. They will take for below the general rate and er too small. The "shiver." Nay, nay, I shall not bet," said I, "for that would he a sin! Why don't these answer plainly? Can those take me to an inn? Thy vehicle is doubtless meant to carry folks about in! Then why prevaricate!" Said he perversely, "Now yer shouldn't!" Nay, vertly, I shouted not," quoth I, "my speech is mild; But thine—I grieve to say it—with falsehood is deftied. Thou ought to be admonished to rid thy heart of guile." See here, my lovely moke," said he, "you aling on too much style! "I've had these plain drab garments twenty years and more," said I, "And when thee says I 'along style,' these tells a willful lie!" At that he pounced about as if a bee was in his hannot; And with hostile demonstration, inquired II I was "on it!" "On what! till the explain abyself, I can not tell," I said. He swore that something was "too thin" moreover it was "played;" But all his larger was surpassed in wild absurdity. By threats, profanely emphasised, to "put a head on me!" "No son of Bailal." said I, "that miracle can do! Whereas he fell upon me with blows and curses too, But failed to work that miracle—if such was his design! Instead of putting on a head, he strove to smile off mine. Thee knows I cultivate the peaceful habits of our sect; But this man's conduct wrought on me a singular effect; For when he slapped my broadbrim off, and asked, "how's that for high!" It roused the Adam in me, and I amote him hip and thigh. The throng then gave a specimen of calumny brok® loos, And said I'd "snatched him bald headed," and likewise "cooked his goose;" Although I solemnly affirm I did not pull his hair, Nor did I cook his poultry—fear he had no poultry there! They called me "Bully Boy," although I've seen nine three score year; And said that I was lightning when I got upon my ear! And when I asked if lightning climbed its ear, or dressed in drail, "You know how it is yourself," said one in consequential blab. Thee can see that, by this time, I was somewhat perplexed; Yes, that placid spirit in me had seldom been so sexed. I tarried there no longer, for plain-spoken men, like me. With such perverters of our tongue can have no unity. Anecdote C. H. Webb. The author of St. Twel'mo, noted for his love of a practical joke, and a slight impediment in his speech, was "on duty" at the Fair of the American Institute, and finding a convenient point of rest behind a pyramid of paste and blacking, went quietly to work to write up his notes. He had just completed a glowing eulogium on the merits of a patent bean-sifter, when he was interrupted by a tall countryman, who asked: "Haow do yer sell yer blackin' mister?" "I d-d-don't sell it," said the absorbed writer. "Don't gin it away, du ye," said patient, and soothing to the soft cartilages we are not informed, nor are we told whether, by persistent use of it a noseless man can afford to dispense with the Talicotain operation. We must not, however, be too skeptical. We all know that in the Western States of America an instrument called a "nose-warmer" is in large request. It is a sort of extinguisher or nose mug, fined with fur, which, when it is hoisted, is, if not exactly decorous, yet at any rate warm and comfortable. Nor is the "nose-warmer" the only patent of modern nasologists. Snoring is all of bad habits the most intolerable; and it is comforting to know that a device has been found out to mitigate its horrors. A long and flexible tube leads from the nose of the patient to his ear, and thus the undulest sounds which he creates awake their author. He, in effect, consumes his own snoring, much as a well constructed factory chimney consumes its own smoke, and being thus convinced of the enormity of his own sins, learns to repent him, and to keep his own nose under better control. It is evident, then, that Slawkenbergins left much to be desired. That a book should be written upon noses in an age which knew nothing of nose warmers, nose correctors, or snore consumers, is but another proof of how great was the presumption of our ancestors. Meantime the new nose correctors can be purchased for the ridiculously small sum of ten shillings and sixpence, "post free" and yet daily see human beings in our streets wih noses that are a disgrace to humanity.—London Court Journ al. A Hero worthy a Poet's Attention. Jim Bludsoe had a worthy disciple in the engineer in the burned city of New London. Though he didn't hold her nozzle again the bank (because he couldn't get it there) he did stick to his post till every hair on his face and head was singed with the flames. Then he buckled a life preserver around him and went on deck to help the passengers. They say his voice was cheery and his face as bright as ever, through all the heat and glare of the burning boat, and many a man and woman owed their life that night to Mat Baker's vigorous arm. The forward deck was the last to go, and high up near the bows Mat found a helpless woman without support of friend or plank. His face grew a little grave as he office of the Presenting for people who are chase crime, or who wish to plains and will introduce themselves to such people; may cubate the Police Court who enter the office of cutting Attorney, and serve volunteer to police duties which the law devise him.

He had just completed a glowing eulogium on the merits of a patent bean sifter, when he was interrupted by a tall countryman, who asked: "Haow do yer sell yer blackin' mister?" "I d-d-don't sell it," said the absorbed writer. "Don't gin it away, du ye," said the querist, handling a box covetously. "I ha-h-haven't g-g-given away any yet," replied the still busy knight of the pencil. "Hain't got any objections to my taking a box, have ye?" persisted the torment. "N-n-n-not the l-least in the world," said the thoroughly aroused joker, calmly closing his book, and beaming blandly upon the interrogator. The countryman immediately seized upon a box of the polish; a sharp boy standing near followed his example; the news of free blacking spread among other sharp boys, and the pyramid of blacking was soon reduced to a plain, when the newspaper man was overtaken a little distance further in the hall by the blacking dealer, irate and red-faced, with two policemen who had the original offender and a half dozen boys in custody. "What the blames do you mean," said the man of polish, in anything but polished language, "by setting people to steal my blacking?" "M-m-my dear sir," said the paragrapher urbanely, the g-g-gertleman asked me if I h-h-had any objections to his t-t-taking a box of the blacking, and I hadn't any objections at all, and d-d-don't know why I should have." And he walked quietly on in pursuit of his labors, leaving Mendys Day & Martin to charge a gross of paste blacking in profit and loss. Definition of "Shyster." A strong attachment of subscribers to newspapers is fully confirmed by publishers. "Stop my paper," words of dread to beginners in business, lose their terrors after a paper has been established for a term of years. So long as a paper pursues a just, honorable and judicious course meeting the wants of its customers in all respects as far as the profits of the office will permit, the ties of friendship between the subscribers and the paper are as hard to break by an outside third party as the links which bind old friends in business or social life. Occasional defects and errors in a newspaper are overlooked by those who have become attached to it through its perusal for years. They sometimes become dissatisfied with it on account of something which had slipped into its columns, and may stop taking it; but the absence of the familiar sheet at their homes or offices for a few weeks, becomes an unsupportable deprivation, and they hasten to take it again, possibly apologize for having it stopped. This we believe to be the common history of all established newspapers. of the Prosecuting Attorney, people who are charged with crime, or who wish to make compaints and will introduce them to such people; men who institute the Police Court constantly, enter the office of the Proseting Attorney, and in his abseo volunteer to perform the miles which the law devolves upon them. They are an impeccable They will take fees that are low the general rate and altogether too small. The "shyster" will anything for his service. He divide plunder with thieves; he take car-tickets, rings and tickets. He will take the boots longing to a man sentenced to the County Jail, and tell him that he not need them there. He will accept the spectacles belonging to self blind prisoner; anything in that he can obtain. He will present to the prisoner before or after conviction, that he has the of the Court, and that he can, this influence over the Court, produce a reduction of a fine or a reduction of the term of imprisonment. He will "buzz the Judge" the term is on the bench, become or after the trial, for this purpose. "The Japan Current" of the Pacific Ocean. While the Atlantic has its Gulf Sea, the Pacific has one as much under as the ocean through which flows. This is called the "Japan Current." It takes its rise in the Italian Ocean, moves northward along the eastern shore of Asia, as the Atlantic Gulf Stream hugs the American shore, until it strikes the western islands and Alaskan Peninsula. Here it is divided. One portion moves northward through Bering Sea and Straits, eastward through the Arctic Ocean, southward through Baffin's Bay and Dawson's Straits, and still southward along the Atlantic coast, giving us gold furtherly and easterly winds, and good fish. This accounts for the abundance of iceberg in the Atlantic, while none are ever seen in the Pacific. The Japan Current flowing from the Pacific into the Arctic Ocean, and thence into the Atlantic carries all icebergs with it. The deeper and much larger portion of the Japan Current is bent southward by the elevated bed of Beijing Sea and the Alaskan Peninsula, and flows along the western coast of America as an off-shore current until it strikes upon Cape Hoodocino, in California, where a navigation trunk northward as an immeasurable object. Newspaper are overlooked by these who have become attached to it through its perusal for years. They sometimes become dissatisfied with it on account of something which had slipped into its columns, and may stop taking it; but the absence of the familier sheet at their homes or offices for a few weeks, becomes an unsupportable deprivation, and they hasten to take it again, possibly apologize for having it stopped. This we believe to be the common history of all established newspapers. No friendship on earth is more constant than that contracted by a reader for a journal which makes an honest and earnest effort to merit his continued support. Hence the newspaper which is conscientiously conducted becomes a favorite in the family—Baltimore American. Henry Clay and the Goat. Formerly a very large, well-known and somewhat noted billy goat roamed at large in the streets of Washington, and the newspaper boys, bootblacks and impa generally made common cause against him. Clay never liked to see dumb animals abused or worried, and on one occasion, while passing down the avenue, a large crowd of these mischievous archives were at their usual sport. Mr. Clay, with his walking stick, drove them away, giving them a sound lecture in the meantime. As they scampered and scattered in every direction, Billy, seeing no one but Mr. Clay within reach, made a charge on him. Clay dropped his cane, and caught his goatship by the horns. The goat would rear up being near as high as the tail Kentuckian himself, and the latter would pull him down again. This sort of sport soon became tiresome, and he could conceive of no way he could free himself of the two horned dilema; so, in his desperation, he sang to the boys to know what to do. One of the smallest in the crowd shouted back, "Let go and run, you d—d fool!" Clay always maintained that though he signed the treaty of peace at Ghent, yet that ragged boy knew more than he did. White Specks in Butter—a correspondent of the Vermont Furmer writes on this subject: The question arose: What are these white specks? And it was answered by putting them in a can and churning until a good quality of butter was the result. The conclusion was that the white specks were dried particles of cream-dried by an unusual current of wind com- While none are ever seen in the Pacific. The Japan Current flowing from the Pacific into the Arctic Ocean, and thence into the Atlantic carries all icebergs with it. The other and much larger portion of the Japan Current is bent southward by the elevated bed of Beijing Sea and the Alaskan Peninsula, and flows along the western coast of America as an off-shore current until it strikes upon Cape Hendocino, in California, where a portion turns northward as an imminent in-shore eddy, while the remainder moves on southward until, by its greater specific gravity, itinks beneath the surface and is lost. An Astronomical Fact.—Two persons were born at the same place, at the same moment of time, after an age of fifty years they both died, also at the same place and at the same instant, yet one lived one hundred days more than the other. How was this possible? Not to keep our friends in suspense, the solution turns on a curious, but with a little reflection, every obvious point in circumstance. A person going around the world toward the west loses a day, and toward the east, he gains one. Supposing, then, two persons born together at the Cape of Good Hope, whiche a voyage round the world may be performed in a year, one performs this constantly toward the west, in fifty years he will be fifty days behind the stationary inhabitants; and if the other fails equally toward the east, he will be fifty day in advance of them. Therefore, will have seen one hundred days more than the other, though they were born and died in the same place and at the same moment, and often lived continual in the same latitude, and reckoned by the same calendar. To raise back—like hold of the caps and pullets—H. G. White Specks in Butter.—A correspondent of the Vermont Euramer writes on this subject: The question arises: What are these white specks? It was answered by putting them in a can and churning until a good quality of butter was the result. The conclusion was that the white specks were dried particles of cream-dried by an unusual current of wind coming in at the window of the milk-room, sufficient to agitate the surface of the milk, so affecting the surface particles of cream that they would not change to butter in the usual time and with the usual amount of agitation. Yet continued churning changes them to butter. It is desirable that the air should come into the room below the pans, and not out near the top of the room. Mr. Whistler and the Crocodile.—It is stated that in ascending the Cooper river, in South Carolina, Daniel Webster declared to some of his friends who accompanied him, that he had it before him as one of his ambitions to kill a crocodile or an alligator. An occasion soon offered itself. A fine large alligator was seen basking in the sunshine. Mr. Webster aimed at him, but did not succeed in killing him; the ball being too small. "But," adds the story-teller, "I am convinced that he made as profound an impression upon this crocodile as he is ever making on all the world." A New Yorker wrote to General Spinner, asking for his autograph and a "sentiment," wherein the veteran Treasurer wrote in reply: "You ask for my autograph with a sentiment. My sentiment is this: When a gentleman writes another on his own business he should enclose a postage stamp."
