HUMOROUS.
Lqclstriamsm Extk aoedin'aht. A coires
pondent of "Life Illustrated," gives the fol
lowing aa a portion of the experience of a ca
det at West Point :
"When I caine back from furlough my class
had ridden lor a year, I only for a week or two.
Nothing daunted, however, by thh, and blind
ly trusting to fortune and my own powers, I
buckled on a pair of rusty spurs, bound my
self securely to an enormous sabre with a pon
derous iron scabbard, and sallied forth. Dra
goon brought me a raw-boned, vicious looking
animal, which, after some preliminary difficul
ties, I succeeded in mounting.
Trot ! Horse started ; so did I, half off
my saddle. I had never been taught to keep
my heels well out, and accordinaly my spurs
went in. Ilorse 'went in' too. Motion pecu
liar. Began to think I was losing my balance.
Sabre flew out and hit the horse on the head.
In plunged my spurs deep among his ribs.
Another jump. Sabre flew back and hit him
on the flanks. Spurs worked convulsively a
mong his bones jump, thump, spur ! Horse
reared ; seized his mane kicked up ; caught
his ear and saved myself. It began to giow
exciting. Finally horse started off. Such a
race .' Pulling on the mane had no tendency
to check his mad career ; rather seemed to ir
ritate him. Had a good hold with the spurs,
but did not consider myself perfectly safe.
Sabre flew up and bit me in the face. Blind
for a moment, and heard something drop.
Looked up into the add!c and saw I was not
there. Concluded I must be on the ground.
Ilorse standing near, eating grass, and looking
at me with a quiet twinkle in his eye, adding
insult to injury."
Focnd His Father. "My son, can you take
a trunk for mo up to the hotel V said a passen
ger stepping from a boat on the levee, to a
ragged looking youngster, who sat balancing
on the tail end of a dray.
"Your son 1" cried the boy, eyeing him from
head to foot. "Well, I'll be dod drapped if I
ain't in luck. Here I've been trying to fiud
daddy these three years, and all of a sudden
up comes the old hoss himself, and knows me
right off. How are you V stretching out a
muddy looking paw.
The traveller was nonplussed. Between a
smile and a frown, he inquired: "What is
your name, sir ?"
"My name. So you don't know. Well, its
nothing for people in these parts to have so
many children that they don't know their
names. My name's William but some folks
call me ragged Bill, for short. What the oth
er part is I reckon you know, if you don't you
must ax the old 'oman."
And shouldering the trunk he marched ofl
towards the hotel, mumbling to himself :
"Well this is a go. The old gem man come
home at last. Good clothes, big trunk, must
have the tin. Well I am in luck."
There Is a fast boy out in Madison, the cap
ital of Wisconsin, who, if he gets no backsets,
will scarcely fail to reach Congress or the pen
itentiary, one of theso days.
His school teacher, a young lady, was pros
ecuted by his parents for pretty severely welt
iog the young rascal's back for his conduct.
The case went up to court, and the verdict of
the jury was in effect, "served him right."
We give a portion of the boy's testimony, the
wit of which atones for his rudeness.
"I asked her to do a sum for me, and she
refused."
"What was ihe sum J" asked the counsel for
the defendant.
"To subtract nine from twenty eight."
"Could you do that without her assistance?"
"I suppose I could; but the arithmetic said
I couldn't subtract nine from eight without
borrowing 10, and I didn't know where the
d 1 to borrow it."
And he played, Sec. Wo see by a hoop
pole county paper that a "gemman" of color
has been enlightening the residents of that
district by an eloquent and powerful display
of oratorical genius never before heard in that
section of the country. Ho closed by saying
to his audience that they "would mount on
weagles 'ings, and sore to do land ob catfish
and eels, whar de graby runs down bofe sides
yer mouf. Tea, verily, de day will come when
you all will mount on de weagles 'ings, and
play upon de harp ob a thousan' strings !"
What fools men are, to lament because
they aro not as well off as "that fellow across
the street." The richest man ia town will bo
forgotten in fifty years from now, as the mason
who built the Rocky Mountains. In 1843 we
attended the funeral of a millionaire. We vis
ited his grave recently, and what do you sup
poso we saw 7 Four bob-tailed pigs rooting
the sou lrom nis grave. Ana this was the end
of all his influence a neglected grave, with
four stub-tailed pigs rooting up the soil. So
passes the glory of the world.
It ia related of Johnson "rare Bon John
son" that going homo in his wagon, one hot
day, he fell asleep. Some young scamp, pa?s
ing that way, unhitched his nag, and sending
the poor beast a roaming, drew the wagon to
the fence. After a time Ben awakes. Ho
wonders, and, wondering, exclaims : "Ant I
Ben Johnson, or am I not.
son, I have lost a horse :
If I am Ben John-
if I am not Ben
Johnson, I have found a cart."
Illvstratisg a Point. Sir Fletcher K
for-
ton was noted for his want of courtesy. When
pieaatng before Lord Mansfield on some ques
tion or manorial right, he chanced unfortu
nately to say, "My lord, I can illustrate th
roint in an instant in my own person. I my
self have two little manors." Tho Jurf im
mediately interposed, with one of his blandest
uues, .y q au know it, Sir Fletcher."

The cans and jars are constructed with a chan

a very adhesive cement, prepared for tho purpose
