B&T A Ptump ppenkcr cxclnimcd : "I know no North, no South, no East, no West, fellow citizens," Then," ex claimed an old farmer in the crowd, " it's time you weut to Bchool and learnt jogra phy." Tn the old time a Connecticut pas tor (h diiicil an addition of $100 to lim salary, for the reason, amorty others, that the hardest part of his labors had been the collection of his salary, and it would kill him to collect $100 more. At a Sunday School in Ilipon, a teacher asked a little boy if lie knew what the expression "sowing tares" meant. " Coui th I does," said he, pulling the iv.t of his little breeches around in" front " there's a tear my ma sewed. I teared it slidin' down hill." JOQT" As Pat Ilogan, a recently arrived emigrant, sat enjoying his connubial bliss upon the banks of a Southern creek, ho espied n turtle emerging from the stream. " Oeh, honey !" he exclaimed, " that ivcr 1 should come to Arueriky to see a snulf box walk !". &W An Irishman, being a little fud dled, was afiked what was his religious be lief. " Is me bclafo ye'd bo askingabout ? It's the same as the Widdy Brady. I owe her twelve shillings for whiskey, and she bclaves I'll never pay her and faith that's me belafe too." Curran being at a party at the seat of an Irish nobleman, one of the company, who was a physician, strolled nut, before dinner into tho churchyard. Dinner being served up, and tho doctor not returned, some of tho company wero expressing their surprise where he had gone to. " Oh," says Curran, " he has just stepped out to pay a visit to some of his old patients." J&S&- " Vat ish dem tings dat has a got a long bill und go 'buz'" inrjuiicd a Dutchman of a man at a hotel, win ve ho had put up the night heforo. "I suppose you mean woodcocks," returned he. " Veil 1 kill dwenty woodcocks in n:ino chamber bed last night." " O.you mean mosquitoes." " Veil den I kill dwenty mosquitoes," returned tho Dutchman. A few years ago a little fellow was taken by his father to a carpenter to bo bound apprentice to him, after tho fashion of those times. In settling tho business, the master, who was one of tho stiff kind, observed : " Well, boy, I sup pose you can cat most anything, can't you? 1 always make my boys' live on what they don't like." "I love every thing but mince pie and apple pie !" w..s the boy's instant reply, S5- A good story ia told of the late M. do Balzac. One night, while Jyiii" awake in bed he saw a man enter hi? room cautiously, and attempt to pick the luck of his writing desk. The roguo was not a little disconcerted at hearing a loud laugh from tho occupant of Uie apartment, whom he supposed asleep. ' Why do you laugh ?" asked the thief. " I am laughing, my good fellow," laid M. de Balzac, " to think what pains you are taking, and what risk you run, in hope of finding money by night in a desk where the lawful owner cannot On 1 auv by day." J C A Michigan constable, from whose custody a prisoner had escaped with only a shirt on, while in search of the convict, was told hy one of his neighbors that there had appeared at the house of the latter, iluriug the night, an individual who was stark naked and who refused to give any account of himself. The neigh bor further said that the stranger was still in his house, and might yet be taken. The constablo flew around, got his hand cuffs, and rode up to tho residence of his informant, to find that the lady of the house had given birth to a fine baby. A Lady was told the other day by a traveling gentleman that in a certain country every lady who had a small mouth was provided with a husband by the gov crnniont. " Ith it pothiblc," gaid tho lady mak ing her mouth as email as sho could. Tho gentleman added, that ii' a hdy had a largo mouth, she was provided with two husbands. " My gracious," exclaimed the JiJdy, at tho same time throwing her mouth ojien to its fujl extent. The gentleman became alarmed, made his escape almost immediately, and ha not been heard of eiuce.
