in prayer before an old book of Ileurcade

has been made.

by experiment whether, or nothager is in
toxicating, and below is given, in his own
language, the result: .: . . ’ J
‘ The first glass seemed. like pur strong
beer with a good deal df ifrater in it j the
next was not quite so sour, and the next
one tasted as though thp original beer had
been stronger and they did not dilute-it sh
much. . . .; , : .. • , i
' Then we ; rested, and as I had drank
three pints already, 1 whs willing

I thought I could hold another gloss and
ordered it; it was brought by a yonug hf
dy who seemed to eyes and two

Then I thought Fd have a glass of La
ger (a liquid known to most of the inhab
itants of Manhattan:.) - It was brought by
a girl sq pretty that I immediately ordered
two more, afid kept her waiting for the
change each time so I could look at her
—then we had some cheese full of holes:
then we took some Lager to fill up tlie
holes; and then'we took a sausage; Damp
. haul suggested that the sausage was made
of dog r so we had .some Lager fo, dro\yn
the dog; then we had soine sardines; Damb
hool said it wotlld be criiel to keep the
fishes without a supply of the liquid ele
ment, so we had some Lager for the fish
es to swim inj then we had some bretzels,
and they were so crooked that they would
not pack close, so we had some Lager ;to
fill up the chinks ; then I made a speech
to the company ; . short bat to the, point,
and received with .applause-r-it was ad
dressed to the whole prowd.and was to this
effect; ‘ Gentlemen let’s have some Lager ?’
By this time my friend had by some
mysterious process become mysteriously
multiplied, and their were fifty Damphoq Is.
and all accepted the invitation,
we had the Lager ; there were forty glas
ses, - and in trying to make the circuit-of
the room and touch my glass to/every one
of •'■theirs, 1 fell over a table which very
impertinently stepped, before nie, and a£ 1
went down I knocked a small Dutchman
into the corner, then I fell dvpr him, tl|en
I demanded an instant apology, then I cal
led for six glasses of Lager, and the girl
brought them all in one hand. I tried to
take them all in one hand, but broke three,
then I tried to drink out of the remaining
three all at once, and in so doing I took
an involuntary showetbath, then' 1 tried to
pay for the whole fifty glasses hud the

proper to build her nest on a ridge of tbo

were .constantly blasting the rock. .At
first she. was much discomposed by the
fragments flying in all directions, but still
she would hot quit her chosen

AN Intelligent Canary;—Afavpnte
canary in a family in the city, a dayor’Mfft)
dace, exhibited more reason than - they
are generally credited with. From thp
upper part of the cage, a small. brass hell
.had suspended by a stripg, which
the cahary had learned to ringby Recking
at it, and amused himself the day long by
its musical ting-a-ling. Finally bepeekad
the string until he parted the strands, and.
the bell fell to the bottdm of the cage.
“ Perley” in ah instant flew dowh from nis
perch to the side of Ids toy, and after peeh
ing at it for some- time, and not succeed*
ing in making it rjng, ho. took aseatqui
ctly beside it, anil sat there for. d[ayi
without once ascending to bis perch, 0r
going to his cup for food or drink. When
tho bell first dropped he chattered like »
magpie, but he found it was ho .use’to try
to make it ring, he quit chirping and re?
mamecl silent. When the bell was finally
replaced m its former position, ho flew up
on the perch as lively as ever,' and peeked,
away at the bell jnost industriously, keep- i
