A _BUCKER---lIIS FIRSi . OYSTER-.-S.WAI.L9IT
ING IT ALIVE-TERRIBLE SITUATION-
THE RESCUE-DI§APPEARECE
At a late hour the other night, the door
of an oyster house in our city was thrust
open, and in istalked a hero from the Suck
er State.' He was quite six feet high,
spare, somewhat stooped, with a hungry,
anxious countenance, and his hands pushed
clear down to the bottom of his breeches
pockets. His outer covering was hard to
define, but after surveying it minutely, we
came to the conclusion that his suit had
been made in his boyhood, of a dingy yel
low ,
uand
Linsey woolsey, that, having sprout
ed up with astonishing rapidity,he had been
forced to piece it out ovith all colors, in
order to keep pace with his body. In spite
of his exertions, however he had fallen in
_arrears about a foot of the necessary length,
and consequently, stuck] that far through
his inexpressiblas. His crop of hair . was
surmounted by the funniest little seal skin
cap imaginable. After taking a position,
he indulged- in a Tong stare at the man
opening the, bivalves, and slowly ejaculated
—"lsters?" ,l I
"‘Yes,.sir," responded

"I never seed any t hi'- hold on so—

I've a good mind to give that feller lodg

Used to say about speekalation."
"Well,' sir '
" was,the reply, "down with
two bits and you can have a dozen."
"Two bits !" exclainibd the Sucker, "now
come, that's stickih it On rite strong, boss,
for inters. A dozen aib't nothin to a chick
en, and there's no gettin' more'n a pica
yune a piece for them! I've only realized
forty-five picayune on my first ventur' to
St Louis. I'll tell veil what. I'll gin you
twq chickens for a dozen, if you'll conclude
to deal." . ,
A wag, who was standin by indulging
in a dozen, winked to the attendant to
shell ,out, and the offer was accepted.
"Now mind," repeated the Sucker, ! "alt
faiN--tWo chickens for a dozen—you're a l
witness, mister," turning at the same time
to the wag, "none of your tricks, for I've
heard that your city fellers are mity slip
pry coons.":
The bargain, being airly understood, our
"Sucker"-squared himelf for the onset, de
liberately put off his eal skin, tucked up
his sleeves, and fork in hand, awaited the
appearance of No. It came—he saw-1
and it was quickly belted ! A moment's
dreadful pause ensued!. The wag dropped
his knife and fork with a look of mingled
amazement and horrOr—something akin to
Shakespeare's Hamlet on seeing his dad
dy's ghost—while he burst into the ex
clamation—
" Swallowed alive, as' I'm a Christian !"
Our Sucker hero lad opened his mouth,
with pleasure a mom'ent before, but now
it stood open. Feail i — a horrid dread of
he knew not what- Tr a - t ponsciousness that
all wasnt right, and I , ,,'o3orant-ofthe extent
of the wrong —the 4 - certainty of the mo
ment was terrible: Urged to desparation,
he faltered out—
" What on earth's he row 7"
"Did you swallow it alive?" inquired
the wag.
