My Dear i lehabod. your presence would to me be | more than the cooling spring to the. parched traveller in the desert; more | than the green grass to the hungry ox ; j more than the pebbled pool to the wan ton duck ; yea, more than a lump of su gar to a cup of father’s old apple-jack, which you say you admire above all oth er tmngs.

Do as 1 have directed, and be quick, do, for Joe is now trying to get me to 1 say yes, and 1 ain't so sure but what I will. C. A KENTUCKIAN IN BOSTON. The Louisville Journal tells the fol lowing good one. A few weeks ago a well known master mechanic of this city who was sojourning for a few days at the Tremont House, Boston, walked into the dining room at the summons of the bell and seeing in the long row of chairs one that was turned up against the table to indicate that it was appropriated to some particular individual, he deliberately look it and commenced his dinner. In about five minutes, a young dandy in whiskers and and moustache, walked up behind him, and remarked in a super cilious tone : •• Sir, you have got my plate.” “ Have I ?” said Jim, carelessly, ‘ well you are perfectly welcome to it,” hand ing his empty soup-plate over iiis shoul der. A loud laugh ensued, and the man in the moustache beat a very precipiitate retreat. Charge it as Sugar. —"Mr. Green,” said a tolerably dressed female the other day, entering a grocery in which were several customers, “ have you any fresh corned pork ?” “ Yes, ma’m.” “How much is this sugar a pound ?” “One shilling, ma’m.” “ Let me have,” she continued, lower ing her voice, half a pint of gin, and charge it as sugar on the book !” Cure for a Complaining Husband.—Rose the private secretary of Louis XIV., had married his daughter to Mr- Rottal, pres ident of the parliament. The husband was constantly complaining to him of the temper and disposition of his daugh ter. • You are right’ said Rose, “she is an impertinent jade, and it I hear any more complaints of her. I will disinherit her.” The husband made no more com plaints of his wife. Post Office Scene.—Have you got a letter for my boss ? “ Whos’e your boss ?’ “ The one that I works for.” “ What’s his name, you idiot ?” ‘•Robert Brown, sure.” “ Thefe’s none here for him.” “ It ain’t for him I wants it. It’s a let ter for myself, but I axes for him becase his name is better known than mine.’ Extravagance in fine clothes is too of ten a recommendation to the eye but not to the understanding of men. Dr. Franklin used to observe that, a “ fine coat often covers intolerable ignorance, but never conceals it.” O 3 In answer to the charge that Gen. Taylor has short legs, the Boston Mail replies that “ there is no necessity for his having Zozig ones, for he never runs from the foe’ FC? 3 The Philadelphia Galaxy says an artist of that city painted a cow and cabbage so natural that he was obliged to separate them before he had finished, because the cow commenced eating the cabbage! (tF* Somebody wants to know if you ever sat down to tea where skim milk was on the table, without being asked : “ Do you take cream sir ?” A boy in Jamaica was driving a mule the animal was sullen, stopped and turn ed his arched neck round upon the boy as if in defiance and contempt. 7 “ Won't go, will you ? Feel grand do you? 1 guess you forgot your father was a Jackass 1” The Great Comet 155 G is expected to make its appearance in the course of I next year. Macon Advcrtisemenrs. Hardware & Cut lery.
