Sharp Correspondence,
One of the Peter Funk Gift Enterprise'
firms in a large city, sent a package of
tickets to a post master in Maine, the pos
tage upon which was fifteen cents unpaid
They got the following hard rap over the
knuckles, from the indignant official.
herewith return your tickets. You
must ho fools as well as knaves, to suppose
that I will aid you in swindling my neigh
bors, and pay all the expenses myself.'
To which he iu a few days received the
annexed 'settler:'
'Sir—We perhaps owe you an apology
for sending the parcel, postage unpaid.
. .
'As we'
infer from the phraseology of
your note, that you are willing to swindle
your neighbors if we pay all the expenses
please give us the lowest terms on which
you will act as our agent. •
'P. S.—All communications shall be
strictly confidential.'
This note was promptly returned, with
the following endorsement across its face,
by the postmaster:
•It seems you are not only fools and
knaves, but blackguards also. Ask my
neighbors ifthey think I would 'swindle
them either at my own expense or that of
any one else.'
which the answer came back by the
next until :
'We have inquired of your neighbors
long ago, and that's the reason we applied
to you in the first instance.
Here follows the postmaster's final re
ply •
.1 acknowledge the corn. Send us
your street and number, so that I can call
on you when I come to the city, and I may
conclude to aid your 'Enterprise.'
But this was the last thing that the 'Gift'
gentleman could think of doing. In fact
secresy 0.3 to his locality was quite essen
tial in keeping out of the clutches of the
police.
Fit for a Lawyer.
An old lady walked into a lawyer's office
lately, when the following conversation
took place :
'Squire, I called to see if you would take
this boy, and make a lawyer out of him'
'The boy appears rather young, madam:
how old is he?'
'Seven years Sir.'
We is too young, decidedly too young.

'Oh, yes, sir ; I have several; but we

A Laughable Predicament.
In December 18—, we were travelling
through one of the New England States in
an old•fashioned stage coach, with a friend
whose powers of making fun from the
slightest cause were manifest from any pas
sing object he choose to attack. It was
midnight, and as wo approached the vil
lage of R--d, he espied a large mansion
house on top of a small sugar-loaf hill,
close by the road. When we arrived op
posite, he asked the driver to stop a few
minutes. The request w as cheerfully
complied with, although wo were most
freezing, but what trick he had in view
none could guess.
The tunny gentleman =ached directly
up tc the front door of the mansion and
knocked with his cane loud enough to
to wake all the inhabitants. Immediately
a window sashe raised, and out popped a
red night cap containing the head of the
proprietor, who in alarm exclaimed—
. What—what's the matter? What's
wanted at this time of night ?'
, Pardon me, sir, for this intrusion; but
I have a communication to make to you'
personally, and as the stage is waiting im
patiently for me, please hurry to the door
for one moment's interview.'
The old gentleman's night-cap with its
owner in a garment curtailed of its fair pro.
portions : were almost immediately at the
door politely bowing to the funny stranger
who again apologized for disturbing his
slumber and thus exposing him to the chil
ly winds of a December night.
'My dear sir,' interrupted Mr. Night
cap, 'don't mention it, but pardon me for
appearing before you in the plight which
you see me?
'You are certainly quite excusable, and
especially as my great haste prompted this
courteous response to my call upqn you.'
'Be pleased to step into my house, as I
notice some ladies in the coach aro attract
ed by my appearance.'
'Never mind them, my dear sir. Your
finely located mansion has arrested the at
tention of us all—it makes a truly beauti
ful appearance in the bright moonlight.—
Speaking of the moon, brings to my mind
the question which has recently agitated
the scientific world, and in which you've
undoubtedly been interested, viz : Is this
luminary inhabited or is it not inhabited ?
The telescopic-7'
'Excuse rily interruption sir, but allow
me to get a cloak, for I am almost frozen,
and—'
'Ten thousand pardons, my dear friend,
but the stage is waiting for me, and I must
loose no time, for all things in this world
time; time—'
'Allow me to remind you, sir, that you
desired to make a communication to me.—
I am now ready to receive it.'
met how unmindful I am in the
discharge of a duty incumbent upon me,
which has been so long protracted, I most
readily acknowledge'
'Oblige me, sir, by coming directly to
the communication you desired to make to
me.'
'Again, I beg you to forgive my appar
ent tardiness in doing so. The fact, my
dearest sir, which as a scientific man I felt
it my duty to divulge to you for your own
benefit, for I need not inform you that
men endowed with scientific attaintnents,
and—'
'But, sir, I dainand, without further de.
lay, what is tho important fact you desire
to communicate ?'
It is simply this : Your house being sit
uated on the apex of a hill, with sides slo
piug sufficiently to allow water to flow
therefrom, I have stopped the stage coach
this cold night, and aroused you from your
slumbers, to apprise you of the fact, that
you can with the greatest ease drain your
cellar from Jour different directions'/'
'You infernal scoundrel r shrieked the
astonished and infuriated proprieior,
teach you a trick worth a dozen of this,' as
he seized the fuu ny gentiernan's cane,
who had commenced a rapid retreat for
tho coach—the red• nightcap and abbrevi
ated white garment after him as fast as
two spindle shanks could carry him. But
the funny gent gained upon his pursuer,
jumped into the coach, which was put into
full speed up an adjoining hill, with the
enraged country gentleman, in curtailed
garment fluttering in the breeze, in cold
pursuit, but whose hot imprecations again
us all were enough to stifle the mirth of a
live Yankee.
On arriving at the top of the hill, by one
of those singular coincidences which some
times happen at the crisis, to mar or heigh
ten one's happiness, we suddenly came in
contact with two open carriages abreast,
loaded to overflowing with ladies and gen
tlemen who were returning from a country
ball. The attention of the whole party
was soon turned to our red-capped white
garmented pursuer, who, not liking so ma
ny lady spectators, hurled his cane at us,
(which however glanced by and roused a
family of pigs by the roadside,) and com
menced a rapid retreat for home, followed
by a dozen squeeling pigs, barking dogs,
and a flock of quacking geese. The scene
presented was the most ridiculous imagi
nable, and such wild outbursts of uncon
trollable merriment is seldom heard; in
deed it wan a fit subject for the pun of a
Ilugurtlt.

GREATEST MEDICAL DISCO
VERY OF THE AGE.
Dr. Kennedy, of Roxbury, had discovered in one
of our common pasture weals n remedy
that cures
EVEKI• ELM ®,
di., wont scrofula down to a eJmmon pimple,
Ile has tried it in over 1100 cases, and never
failed except in two eases, (both it under humor.)
Ile has now in his possession net: two hundred
certificates of its vi.itne,' all within twenty miles
of Boston.
Two bottles arc warranted to cure a nursing
sore mouth.
One to three bottles will cure ti e worst hind
of Pimples on the face.
or three bottles will clear the system o
Biles.
Two bottles aro warranted to corn the worst
ease of Erysipelas.
One to iwc; bottles are warranted to cure all
humor in the Eyes.
Two bottles are warranted to cure rousing of
the ears out blotches among the hair.
Four to six bottles aro wiirrantotl to curo con
rupt and running ulcers.
one bottle will cure scaly eruption of the
skin.
Two to three bottles arc warranted to curs the
worst ease of r ingworm.
Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the
most desperate' case of rheumatism. •
Three to four bottles are warranted to cure the
salt rheum. .
Five to eight bottles will cure the wdrst case
of scrofula.
A benefit is always experienced from the first
bottle, nod a perfect cure is warranted when the
above quantity is taken.
Render, I peddled over a thousand bottles of
this in the vicinity of Boston. I knew the effect
of it in every ease. So sure as water will extin
guish fire, so sure will this cure humor. - I never
sold a bottle of it bet thatsuld another; after ,a
trial it always speaks for itself. There am tw't
things about this herb that appear to me surprk
sing ; first that it grows in our pastures, in tld
plaWs quite plentiful, and yet its value has uTi v fq
been knuwn until I discovered it in 18.16—sect;n4
that it should oars all kinds oilmen
In order to give sumo idea of the sudden rise
and great popularity of the discovery. I will
state that is April, 1853, I peddled it and sold
about slx bottles per day—in April, 1854, T
outruns thousand per day ord.
Some of the wliolesure Druggists who have
been in business twenty and thirty years, say
that nothing in the annals of patent medicines
was ever like it. There is a universal praise of
it from all quarters,
In etc own peso iee I always kept it strictly f o ot
humors—hot slime its introduction AS a general
Wally medicine, great and wonderful virtues
have been found in it that I never sugpceted.
Several eases of epileptic tits—a discuss which
was always eonsidered inearahle, have been cu
red by a l'ew !mules. 0, what a merry if it will
pruve etlechml in all eases of that dreadful mal
ady—there are but ti,v who have more of it than
Im,e.
know of ,avoraLeases of Dropsy, all or whom
aged people roved by it. Poe the various disea
ses of the Liver, Si-k Headache, Dyspepsia,
Asthma, Forectuni Ague . , Pain in the Hide, Dis
eases tit the Spine, nod particularly in diseases
of the Kidneys, Per., the thsrovcry Ints done more
good than any medicine ever known.
No change adieu ever necessary—eat the best
you can get and enough of it.
