One morning during tlx recent cold weather, Miss Lilr refused to get up and be washed, ller auut, who fol lows the modern mode of dealing with children, and considers that they should always be argued with, but never made to do as they are bid, in Vain exhausted her eloquence in dis cribing the excellencies of purification, for the infant logician fairly confuted her by this ingenious antithesis: "Aunt Mary, you do as you like, and let me do as I like. You like to be clean and cold, I like to be warm and dirty." On one occasion during the Revolu tion "Old Put" had received a lot of new recruits, and he had tome fight ing to do before long, and wanted none but willing men, he drew up his levies in rank before him. "Now, boys," said be, "I dou't want to retain auy of you who wish to leave ; there fore, if any of you are dissatisfied, and wishes to return home, he may signify the same by stepping six paces in front of the line. But," added the old war dog, "I'll shoot the first man that steps out." Recorder Hackett, of New York, used the following singular remarks in passing sentence upon a criminal: "1 ou have also declared your readi ness to kill all who iuterfere with you, and go armed for that purpoae. I would like to meet you some time when in your lawless moods you are fixed for killing. I'd teach you a lesson you would not forget as loug as you live. I now sentence you to two years, with bard labor, in the peniten tiary." . In the Rondout Methodist Church on a recent Sunday morning, theusu l douning of overcoats was proceed ing amid considerable confusion, but had not beea completed when the pas tor arose to pronounc the benedic tion, lie paused a moment, and said : "Brethern, I guess I will put on my overcoat hereafter during the benedic tion, so as not to loose any time." A North Carolina negro thought he could out run a locomotive the other day on the Air Line road, and when he picked himself up, after being thrown twenty feet and lauding on his head, he said : "Yer don't ketch 4iis chile doin' dat agin. - It's a right smart wonder I didu t tear dese britch es clean air." - . A Sunday-school speaker the other veningused the word abridgement, bat immediately pulled up and re marked that as some of the youngest scholars might not know its meaning, lie would say hat it was a synonym of epitome. The members of the in fant class were affected to tears. Aatory is told of a venerable negro an Iowa, who was on trial . for an of fense against the State. When the case was annouced in court, "the State of Iowa versus tSauipson Cswar," the aged African exclaimed : "What 1 de whole State of Iowa igin dis cbilel Den I surrenders." Forward and loquacious ' youth : "By Jove, you know upon my word, now jfl were to see a ghost, you know, I would be a chattering idiot the rsat of my life." Ingenuous mai den : "Ilaveu't you seen a ghobt?" . A profound observer of human na ture has remarked that a woman can crowd more comfort and solid happi ness into oua day's shopping than at tends the efforts of the most gifted ana unselasn pnuantnropist. "What do they always put D. C. after Washington fur?" asked Mrs. Quilp of Mr. Q.
