Knowlns Too Mnch. I
During the administration of Fresidect j
Jackson, there mi joang gentleman em
ployed ia the public service at Washing
Iod, whose name was 0. ; he was from
Tennessee, the son of widow, a neighbor
of the President, on which account the
old hero bad a kind feeling for him, and
always eot bim out of bis difficulties with
.l i l u u-
some of the higher officials, to whom bis
lingular interferences were distasteful.
Among other things, it is said of bim
that while he was employed in the Gener
al Post Office, on one occasion be bad to
copy a letter for Major II., a high officer,
in answer to an application from an old
gentleman, in Virginia or Pennsylvania,
for the establishment of a new Post Office.
The writer of the letter often used classi
cal language ; in this letter be said the
application eonld not be granted, in con
sequence of the applicant's "proximity" to
another office. When the letter came in
to G's bands to copy, being a great stick
ler for plainness, ho altered "proximity"
to "nearness to. Major II. observed it,
and asked 0. why be bad altered it.
"Why," replied G., "because I don't
think the man wonld understand what
yon mean by 'proximity.'" "Well," said
Major II., "try him : pat in tbe 'proxim
ity' again."
In a few days a letter was received from
the applicant, in which be very indignant
ly aaid : "That bia father bad fought in
the first, and he himself in the second, war
of independence, and he would like to
have tbe name of tbe scoundrel who
brought tbe charge of proximity or any
thing else wrong against him V "There,"
Mid G., "did I not say ao T"
G. carried bis improvements so far that
Mr. Barry, the Postmaster General, said
to him : "I don't want yon any longer :
you know too much." Poor G. went out,
but bia old friend, the General, again got
bim another place.
This time, G.'s ideas underwent a
change. lie was one day very busy,
when a stranger called in and asked bim
where the Patent Office was. "I don't
know," said G. "Can yon tell me where
the Treasury Department is?" said tbe
stranger. "No," said G. "Nor the Pres
ident's House?" "No." The stranger
finally asked bim if he knew where tbe
Capitol was. "No," replied G. "Do you
live in Washington, sir ?" said tbe strang
er. "Yes, sir," said G. "Good Lord 1
and don't know where tbe Patent Office,
Treasury, President's Hoasc, and Capitol
are ?" "Stranger," said G., I was turned
out of tlte Pott Ojjirt for knotting too
much. I don't mean to offend in that
way again. I am paid for keeping this
book. I believe I know that much; but
if you find me knowing anything more,
you may take my head." "Good morn
ing," said the stranger.
Scene Dining Room Yankee at the
table, eating soup; Superintendent (com

Thomas ? anything wrong, sir ?" Wai
ter "lie says the soup is'nt clean, please
sir." Yankee "That's a teetotal lie. I
didn't say 'twas dirty I didn't say 't wasn't
clean I shouldn't bev said anything
about yer soup at all, if that linen jacket
feller hadn't poked a bill for the dinner in
my face afore I began to eat. I shan't
pay in advance. lie had mor'n I could

What I hct I'll pay for, when the work's

as a first-rate tavern." Superintendent
"My dear sir, this was only our bill of
fare, designed simply to indicate what
dishes may be called for our prices of
dinoer ara uniform." Yankee "Tbe
dence it is well, the fact ia I didn't mean
anything agin your soup. What I was
going to say was this, that tbe soup
wasn't so clean aa I bad seen, for, ye see,
when 1 was travelin' in Pennsylvania, they
had sonp at one tavern, so clean that if
yer abould dip a white cambie handker-
chief into', '.wouldn't grease it !" Exit j

SPRING PURIFIER.
THE warm sPrin8 wather succeeding the
bracing atmosphere of winter, relaxes the
eutiie muscular system, including that great
muscle, the heart ; the circulation of the blood
becomes sluggish and irregular, not being
propelled as actively as nature requires,
through the lungs, there to exhale or cast off
its impurities and become oxidized and pun
Bed : a fulness of the blood-vessels ensues,
attended with dull, drowsy, languid feelings,
and frequently dizziness and vertigo ; the
blood becomes loaded with corruptions, which
sometimes finds a partial vent in humors and
eruptions of the skin, and the liver partakes
of the general inactivity of Ihe system. lr.
DAVIS' DEPL'RATIVE quickens and equal
izes the circulation of tbe blood, cleanses it
of all morbific matter, stimulates the liver to
healthy action, gives tone to the oigans of
digestion, and communicates remarkable en
ergy lo all the functions. One bottle of it,
costing one dollar, will entirely prevent or re
move alt Ihe above-described nnpleasant
symptoms, and, by strengthening and invigo
rating, as wen aa purnying tbe system, fre
qnently be the means of preserving the health
throughout tbe entire summer. Its effects as
a Spring Purifier of the Blood are warranted
and unfailing. For sale by
