The bugging I don, however, purely for bust mm purposes in vlw. They say that no correctly organ ised man will refuse to subscribe for their pspers after being wall hugged. They therefore put money in their purse, and at the same time help theoviio, by the oper ation, and, this being so, they very willing -lysnbmlt to the sacrifice. But the Revolu tion thinks it isn't very nice, and la, inifeed Indignant about it. "It any one connected with tbie paper," says tbe Revolution, "ever resorts to ench a course to obtain a subscriber or advertisement, we beg to he apprised of the fact, that her 'contfoctlon may be cancelled etdoce." But tbeo, who's going to tell ? Where is the base ' creature that would say nothing about It? The bus loess of the revolution will go oo. That paper is perfectly safe In making this prop ostlon, and it is were of the fact. Poteen, a lavorite beverage in Ireland, is said to have derived its name Irim St. Pat' rick, be, according lo tbe legend, being the drat who instructed tbe Irish in tbe art of distillation.
