,1} a r a Among the people who came to than ket was a citizen of \\'est Jersey. He brought a stock of eggs and butter. In , a big coup in the reardnost part of his wagon he had a splendid peacock, whose tail spread out, beautiful even to gor- ' gcousncss, like the trail of a lady's dress.

An Irishman passing by observed the splendid plumage of the bird and asked its price.

‘ Thee can have it for fifteen dollarsy was the reply of the owner, whose garb indicated him as a member ofthe Society of Friends.

‘ That's a good price.I was the inter- rogative remark of the Celt. as he sooth- ed the ample tail of the feathered biped.

‘ There are plenty of people who will give that for him,’ was the placid and true rejoinder.

The Celt surveyed the bird, admired his proportions, but still endeavored to eheapcn him. ‘ )Iistcr.' said he. at last to the grave gentleman who held the bird for sale, ‘ Mister, people say that these IJirds have a very bad voice.‘

‘ I have nothing to say about their voices,’ was the quiet reply. ‘If thee wants the fowl thee can take it; if thce dosen't its voice doscn't make any mat- ‘ter to thee,’ ‘

‘ But,‘ says the Celt, birds holler like the devil ?'

‘ Friend,' was the placid reply. ‘ thee probably in that respect has an advantage over me. Theo evidently has acquaint- ances that I have not. If thee thinks that the scream of this bird is like to that of thy friend, whom thee has named. I. in my ignorance, will not presume to contradict thee.'

The next minute the Celt was in an opposite stall in the market buying a ten cent bunch of carrots. He bought no peacock on that day.

During the exercises the teacher asked Georgie if he had ever been baptized. Smallpox and vaccin- ation happening to be uppermost in George‘s mind, and being rather too young to know the dilfercncc between the sound of " baptized." and “ vaccin- ation." and being ashamed to he thought ignorant, promptly aiul raf/icr pompoust answered : “ Yes, sir,l have been bapti- zed live or six times : but it never loo/r .'

An Irishman was called up in a case of assault and battery. and when asked by the magistrate what he said to the complainant, remarked ‘ I said to him wid the toe of my boot, Go home.’

Two countrymen went into a hattcr's to buy one of them a hat. They were delighted willithc sample,inside the crown was inserted a looking-glass. “ What is is this glass for?" said one ofthc men.
