An Excuse fob beiho Qcarrelsomb. In

and disobliging to your friends as you please.
If a coolness arises, so much the better.
GODFATHER TO A GREAT OCX.
The Pall Mall Gazette says:
"We have been iuformed that the Peabody
gun Las been adopted as a new arm by the
Swiss Government."
The Peabody gun perhaps derives its name
from its aptitude tor throwing shell.-, and thus,
in a manner shelling out. Considering what
Bhot it may be supposed to carry, wo may es
timate it to be at least a hundred thousand
ponnder.
Thought hy as Optimist. The good people
there are in the world are wholly unknown to
many of us. Do you doubt it ? Then to.ink
of the perfect strangers you have mat with in
your life.
The Wrong Man. "The Chancellor of the
Exchequer left town for Loch Letter." The
rostmaster-Geueial would have Bounded much
tetter.
Situation not Wanted. (A Fact). Lady1
Maid (come after a place). "1 beg pardou, m'm,
but was you the lady I was to feltand ?"
Lady Mary. "Yes."
Lady's Alaid. "0, then, I think I wa3 best
say good morning. There isn't the Btyla I
Lave been accustomed to." Exit.
Sermons and Sdkfebers. People who com
plain of the length and dulness of sermons
should consider that listening to th discourse
of an average clergyman is an exercise of the
Christian virtue of patience. Perhap3 it may
be said, indeed, to be something more. It may
be regarded as a sort of Protestant penance.
This view is -confirmed by the fact that the
Ritualists, as a rale, preach short sermons.
They very likely think it quite enough to
enjoin their penitents to get themselves Hog
ged, to crawl a long way on their Lands and
knees, or walk about with peas (unboiled) in
their balmorals. Therefore we may suppose
that, when Ritualists preach, they consider
ately endeavor to inflict a3 little as possible of
their tediouaness upon their hearers.
A Tbetimonial. TLe otLer day a worthy
gentleman was presented with a clock as a
testimonial. Now what would the present of
a clock signify f Certainly not that he was
"up to tLe time of day," or the gift would be
superfluous. Had he been the secretary of a
company on the verge of dissolution, it would
Lave constantly reminded him of the minutes
of proceedings and the Winding-up act. Or
was the testimonial satirical, covertly hinting
that the donee was a time-server f If none of
these, wLy a clock f

A Correspondent sends us the following
heading to an advertii-eineut which caught Lis
eye the other day:
SFTOP FOX HUNT, BY HERRING These
four beautllul Colorea Victims. e!o.
A Fox Hunt by Herring must surely b8 the
picture of a Drag.
When is an author most likely to bs sick of
Lis own writing T When he'd regularly in the
swing.
SCIENTIFIC TERMS.
llfotcd In this Hot Weather.)
Absorption. Iced Brandy and Soda.
Radiation. On the Countenance after a cer
tain number of glasses.
litjhvtion. As to taking one more or not.
Toned Papeb. Sheets of Musio.
"MEN WERE DECEIVERS EVER."
Swell (at the Civil Service Co-Operative
Store). "Haw t I want two or thwee pounds
Bacon and aw 'Llige me by doing it up
like Box Gloves or Flowers, or somethiujr o'

Saoacity of the Serpent. A PytLon at the
Zoological Gardens once swallowed Lis blanket.
He was Btipposed to Lave mistaken it for a
rabbit. This supposition is probably erroneous.
More likely the Python wanted an anodyne,
being troubled with a pain in Lis inside, aul
swallowed tLe blanket because he mistook it
for a counterpane.
Amplb Room and Verge Enough. We
always Lad a Ligh opinion of the generosity
of the Aineriuaua, but their liberality in their
treatment of political offenders is more than
regal. Dionyfcius sent away Phintias (no, Bir,
not Pythias), but be kept Damon. But Mr.
Jefferson Davis, wLo is to be tried for high
treason late in the Greek Kalends, is comfor
tably settled at Liverpool, leaving nobody as
Lostage except Horace Greeley and a few
friends, whose names are to a bond which
will sever be enforced. American talk some
times riles us a few; but, by the Capitoliue
Jove (we mean Mr. Sumner), the Americans
are gentlemen.
MORB EFFECtTS OP THB HOT WBATHSR.
Mr. HobbW, being chaffed for having Buf
fered from the gout, remarked that such at
tacks were all owing to the heat, as any gar
dener would tell you that a hot summer pro
duced abundance of toe-maityrs.
Mr. Uarduppe found Lis memory so much
impaired by the Lot weather that he quite
forgot to pay Lis debts ero starting for the con
tinent. Mr. Tippler finds the beat affuot his eyesight
terribly. "The sun is in his eyes" continually
just now, and by an optical delusion be fre
quently bm!8 double.
General Lover Las been jilted for the seoond
time this summer, as the lady could not bear
the warmth of his atfVntlon.
Captain Sharper, who in general is a notedly
cool baud, with the thermometer at 00 degrees,
Las quite lost Lis reputation.
The Great Unbeneficed. Perpetual Curates
are abolished. In name only, we fear; other
wise this would be good news for all those
deserving clergymen who toil on year after
year, and never obtain a living.
Fresh Meat for the Navy. Hie Chops of
the Channel.
Passo Frofondo. A Deep Draught of Bitter
Beer.
From "Fun."
Odd Fact. Our contemporary, lhQrchcstra,
has given notice "that no person named John
ThcuisoD, or Johnson is, or ever Las been,
connected with that journal." The circum
stance is curious, aud we are obliged to the
editor for mentioning it. Probably few estab
lishments in this eountry could say as much;
though we once knew a very extensive print
ing office which was long believed to have no
Smith or Jones among its numerous em
ployees. Subsequent investigations, however,
led to the discovery that the office really did
contain both a Smith and a Jones, in the per
sons of two clerks who had been induced to
drop those bumble patronymics for the more
striking cognomens of Plantagenet and Do
Montmorency.
The Hot Weather. TLe milkmen, on the
plea of the prevailing drought, are raising the
price of milk. Of course, every one can see
that the result of the "cow with the iron tail"
running dry is to lessen the quantity of milk.
A HINT FOR OIKLH OF THE PERIOD.
Laura. "Why, Harriet, what a queer way
of doing your hair just like a snail I"
llanict. "Well, roy love, I don't tLlnk any
one can call that a 'fast' Lead-dress."
"Tnc Deserted Village." Just now,
London.
P. S. In a postscript to Lis letter, a
correspondent, who signs himself "a
man of letters," suggests that Professor
Morley and Lord WincUilsea may find a com
mon ground on which to settle their dispute
about Britf-h Museum Epitaph. His lordship
says that Milton could only have written it ia
his old age. Professor Moiley says he wrote
it, but the Museum people say the signature
is P. M., and not J. M. Here then the Profes
sor and the Lord agree: It is evident that the
poet wrote them when past the meridian of
life, and put P. M. to show the fact. This is
quite as good as most of the "arguments" on
the question, bo we print it.
Twins. River Pirates Pike. Land Pirates
'Pikes.
No Go. Old Bibber tries to make Lis friends
believe that tLe depth and frequenoy of Lis
potations arise from the fact of his having been
in Lis youth bo often placed in a "go"-cart.
Foul Play. Stealing a story from the
French and Belling it as original.
Barrage to the Rescue. The ignorance of
Borne persons in the matter of simple arith
metic is perfectly astounding. We know a
man who has been engaged Lis whole life long
in "looking out for number one!"
A PAcn-YDERii. Pinoher is anything but
thin-skinned; Le rents a moor and sends all its
produce to Leadenhall-street, exousing himself
lor never making up a parcel of grouse for a
friend on the ground that after a while the
birds will "pack" themselves.
The Young Indian's Delight. Looking out
for squaws.
Degrees of Comparisons. Our friend F. E.
Buss, who La3 just published a volume of
"poetry" that has been widely reviewed favor
ably and unfavorably, declares that there are
three degrees of oritioal expression: Critiolsm,
hyper-criticism, and viper-criticism.
A Biting Remark. A Bcientiflo Benedict of
our acquaintance was told that Parliament was
considering the question of the property of
married women. He immediately replied that
there was no question about it: the chief pro
perty of marrie d women was aoidity I
What you will never Hear a Garidaldiah
Say "Forget-Me-not-(ti)."
A National Calamity. That much-dreaded
event, the exhaustion of our coal-fields, is, we
fear, about to beoome a fait accompli. We ob
serve that the offices of one of the largest firms
in the coal trade are placarded with the start
ling announcement, "Coals are now at the
lowest."
Scientific Note. The appearance of the
mosquito in this country may be regarded as
the immediate . effect of a gnat-mospherio
change. . ; . ... ,
Cold Comfort. The best thiDg to Lave
about von, this hot weather A "Cool Hundred.'-
; The Pesalties op Royalty. "Britannia,1
as we all know, "rules the waves," but that
can be no reason why certain of her subjects
should waive the rules ef courtesy and good
breeding by mobbing the Lelr apparent and
suite at Goodwood. Such vulgar and snob
bish obtrusivenes3 deserves to be rewarded by
the iht not of their R'yle but of their
hiled Highnesses.
Pat(ti) to the Occasion. An operatio cele
brity met a dramatic celebrity in the nelghbor
borhood of the Catholio Chapel, in the Clap -Lam
Park road, on the last Wednesday in
July. Seeing a bridal party driving away,
Opera asked Drama what it was. Drama re
plied, "It is the Caux it ia the Caux, my
boul !"
Temporising. To the Editor of the "Fun."
Sir: I observe that Lord Wiuchilsea, in criti
cising the epitaph, erroneously attributed to
Milton, says you reVr.r find thyme in a woo 1.
If he will take the trouble to go to Bagley
Wood and look, he way perhaps succeed iu
finding; for I know, 1 lost several hours there
last bunting season waiting for a fox that did
turn tip. Yours, Oxonian.
Very Small Bf.eu. In presenting the mas
sive "China Cup" to its fortunate winners,
Lord Napier remarked that the English com
munity there "never did things by halves."
We could wish that the same remark would
apply to the mother oonntry. Unfortuuately
specially at elation times mauy things
that won't bear daylight are done here by
'"half-and-half."
' Utrum hokum mavis, accipe. The King of
Sweden Las recently placed some of LU royal
subjects in a very queer position. He has feut
fjur landscapes to too Fine Arts Exhibition at
Stockholm; and the managers of the gallery
are in this dilemma: to reject Lis Majesty
would be diBloyal to Lang Liin would be
treasonable.
Thereby Hangs, etc. An Irishman, who
has been committed to prison on susploion of
treason-felony, writes to a Dublin paper to
say that he has been kept In doubt and in
prison so long that he wishes that the autho
rities would put him out of suspense at once
by hanging him. I the nggeated cure a oase
of llibernioism or of Homoeopathy f
From Sundry Sources.
Another Consequence op Hot Weather A
gentleman who was anxious to purohase a
pair of ready-made unmentionables the other
day, was informed by the tailor that he had
"just run out ef them."
