A MWTEItft ADTKK. An Irishman, by the name of Totu Murphy, once borrowed a turn of mon ey from one of his neighbors, which h promised to pay in a certain time. But month after month passed by, and no signs of the agreement being kept, hit creditor at last warned him that if he did mit y it on a certain day he should sue him for it and recover by la. This rather frightened Tom, and being unable to raise the money, went to a lawyer to get advice on the mat ter. After hearing Tom's story through to tho end, he asked him : "lias your neighbor any writing to how that you owe him this fifty dol iarr ' "Divil a word," replied Tom, quick ly. "Well, then, if you have not the money you can take your time; at all vents, he cannot Collect it by law." "Thank yer honor, much obliged," aid Tom, rising and going towards the dortr. "Hold on, my friend," said the law yer. "Fat for?" asked Tom, in astonish ment. "You owe me two dollars." "Fat for ?" "AVliy, for my advice, to be sura. Da you suppose I live by charging nothing?" Tom scratched his head fur a mo ment, in evident perplexity, for be had no money. At last a bright idea seemed to strike hioi. "An' have yees any paners to show that I owes yees two dollars?" he ask ed, with a twinkle in his eye. , "Why, of course not; but what does that signify ?" ' "Thin I'll jest be after takin' yer wn advice, an' pay neither you nor roe neighbor 1" saying which he left the office and its occupant to meditate on a lawyer taking his own advice and "cIoctor taking his own medicine. Mark Twain gives a graphic sketch of his military career when, in a re cent letter to Jeff Thompson, the Con federate "Swamp Fox," he says: "I have no news that you would care to hear, because,, althongh I was a soldier in the rebel army, in Missouri, for two weeks once, we never won any victo ries to speak of. We never could get the enemy to stay still when we want ed to fight, and we were generally on the move when the enemy wanted to fight." "I was a boy at Braddock's defeat in 1753," says Jean Kevore, of Brack en county, Ky. This beats Count Waldeck and Captain Lahrbush;in fact, Revore is thought to be full 130 years old, and the oldest man in the civilized world. Erie county's last survivor of Braddock's army was Mi chael Hare, of Waterford, who died Ta 1842, aged 110 years. A well known and respectable Bos ton roan, who wanted to be funny, ran up to a lady at the Parker Jiouse whom he mistook for one of his friends, on Sundav evening, and pulled her liundkercLief out of her pocket. He was arrested instantly and taken to the lock-up, but on explaining matters was released. A young lady who entered a Broad way music 6toro and asked the young man in attendance, "Have you Happy Dreams?" was astonished when be re plied: "No, ma'am, I'm mostly troubled with the nightmare." He didn't know why she went out so hur riedly and slammed the store door af ter her. An Indian who is confined in jail at Walla Walla, Oregon, for murder, has been told by his fellow prisoners that he will be hanged sure, and that he had better get used to it. He practices every day by letting them hang him as long as he can bear it, but still he says that he would rather be shot. An old chap, whose wife is as ugly as sin, was reading an elopement case waich seemed to affect him. Said he : "I should be tempted to shoot a man if he was to run off with my wife." "Well," said a hearer, "a man ought to be shot if he run off with your wife." ' An old lady heariug some reading about a congressman at large, rushed to the kitchen door, shouting "Sarah Jane, Jarah June! don't you leave the clothes out all night mind, I tell you; for there's a congressman at targe; A Boston servant girl who thought she heard a burglar in the house, jumped from a wiudow across an alley more than ten foet wide into a window of another building, the other night and there was no burglar round, after all. a. gin m Liverpool waota to know who has got ber young man.
