lie paid hie compliments io a speech she could
scarcely comprehend, for ha had no patieoeo
to speak slow. The lady was rather slqw jp
answering, and our hero was just getting out of
all patience; bul he restrained himself with
wonderful self-command, and ogreoable con
versation ensued. He was rstonished tg find
whon he went away, that his visit had actually
lasted fifteen minutes, during si] which fiiBO hfi>
had not once got out of patience.
'•He went the neg^davi, and found tho old
lady, mother in tho panor, who pretty nearly
annihilated him with an account of an attach
of tho rheumatism. Ye powers! how he did
fidget, and stretch out his legs, and twirl his
hat, nnd drum on the arm chair! He was juaj
on the point of giving up the ghost when 9
great revolution took place. Tha young lady
came in and the ojd lady departed. Mr, Irby
thought the former one of the most charming of
her sex, only she talked a little too slow for
him. She was indeed a mode) of meekness,
patience, and discretion. The very antipodes
of our hero. It is therefore no wonder that
they should fall in love. The two extremes
generally come together sooner or later.
"It whs not long before he offered himself
and was accepted, but the lady, as all delicate
females should do, hesitated and blushed a lit
tle before she uttered the monosyllable which
decidos the fate of woman, and Mr. Irby was
so out of patience that he was just about soiling
: —i— his hat and bidding her adieu forever. *

ing a needle.
in tin: nursery, young master Irby broke all
his pl.iythings.because it,was too much trouble
to use them; at -school the-trouble of learning
the multiplication table made him so impatient
that he tore jt all to pieces; aud,.When a young
man, never hit hisfootngainst-astickora stone
wi Iioui giving it a kick and a malediction to
boot. He could not-bear-a crowd because lie
was impatient of restraint, nor solitude because
he was impatient of his own -company. -He
was often known to delay treading -a .favorite
book merely for want of patience to-cut the
leaves; and thus he missed a great portion • of
the pleasures ofenjoyment solely on the. score
of his detestation of-the trouble of obtaining
them. AVe recollect that one -morning-be was
going on an excursion from which he promised
himsejf great satisfaction, when a pair of new
bouts was brought'home, which he wisiied to
wear on the occasion. -He-was fretting with
impatience'to join his party . '.Unfortunately
thny did not go'on ns easily as a glove, and af
ter two of three pulls,-our hero gottinio such u
pa-xion ihat'he swore a great oath, aud threw
une of tho boots with such-violence from him
that it upset, the inkstand and spoiled his car
pet. -This caused him to fall into a still great
er passioft;ihe.fired away the .other and broke
his looking-glass.
Fot these t wo atrocious offences, (he finally
threw them'both nut of the window with such
violence that he broke the head of an honest
poison who .happened to he passing; at the
same lime denouncing the physical couforma-
lien of man, who being predestined to wear
boots, was accomodated with a heel, as if on
purpose to .prevent his putting them on. He
was so affronted at all these sore afflictions,
that he deteimined not to go on the excursion.
The next day he: had to pay a round sum lor
breaking the poor man’s pate, which made him
ten tiroes more impatient than ever.
Our hero found the life of a bachelor, so full
••I'little troubles, caret aud vexations, that he
lexolveri in a fit of impatience to marry. Ac-
coidinclv lie reflected at least five minutes,
when he got out of patience with thinking, and
determined to have no mure trouble of that
sort. He decided at once, sallied forth, and
knocked at tbe door oi the fair Julia, whom he
intended to address instantor. The servant
was so long coming, that he was out of all pa
tience, and turned away in disgust, determined
to have nothing to say to the lair Julia, who
kept him waiting a whole minute at the door.
He bent his course to the dwelling of anoth
er fait lady, and unluckily found the servant on
the step* shaking a rug which raised a cloud of
dust, which so seriously incommoded him,
that he went away in great wrath without say
ing a word.
Fiom thence he proceeded to visit tho pretty
sprightly biunette Lleaoor, and fortunately was
neither delayed at tho door nor driven away by
the dust. He was ushered into the parlour,
and told the lady would be down presently.—
He waited a quarter of a minute, and ibeu be-
gau to drum violently on tbe table. He wait
ed another quarter, and fidgeted round the
room three or four limes. Still tbe provoking
damsel did not come, "She’s enough tp tire tho

-talked out of tbe ropm in a furious fit of impa

18 MATHEW WiCEEB, Jailor, op&ibo jouof Isdjr already ia tfca parlour.— putting him oft corroctmg fcs
possession of his bride and his house, ho
rang the bell -for a servant, and before tho
sound coilld reach the lower region*, repeated
it with an expression of impatience at the lazi»
nets of the follow.
"He has nor had tiipe-to come, 1 ' Mid his
wife, in her mild, dilatory way.
•Not time! I could,have gone to the garret
and back again!’
‘•Indeed you are mistaken, my dear—bare o
little-patience—here bo comes.’
Mr. Irby gave him a violent rebuke for be
ing sn long nnswering the bell
'•You sent me on an errand, sir,’ replied he.
‘So you did, ray dear—now I recollect.’ said
Mrs. Irhv.
Mr. Irby said nothing, but ho was out of all
patience, first with hjmself for not recollecting
having sent the man away ; secondly with the
man for depriving-him of so excellent an ap-
poloev for being out of patience; and thirdly
with Mrs. Irby for not being out of patience in
the least.
‘Upon my soul, madam, you are enough tg
provoke u stone.’
‘How so, my dear?’ said she, smiling.
•You have the patience of Job.’
Mrs. Irby had it just on tho tip of her
tongue to say she wished she could return tho
compliment; but we record it 83 a modern
miracle that she resisted the temptation, and
only said, making a low courtesy at the samg
time,
•I thank you for the compliment, my dear/ -
‘Hem!’ quoth Mr. Irby, and felt quite pro
voked at his wife for having so much more pa
tience then himself.
On another occasion Mr. Irby fell into «i
great passion because his wife could not im-
media'el v find the key of a drawer when bo
wanted it.
‘Zounds, madam,’ cried he 'yoo^MHBr can
find anv thing when I want it. half
your life has been spent in looking for keys.'
Mrs. Lhv said nothing, but continued tho
search, while her husband was fretting away
his soul nnd uttering irritating reflections. Ro' -
wns just going to break the lock when the lady
II at once exclaimed,
•O now I recollect—you havo it, my dear—.
I oavp it to vou yesterday.’
He denied it at first, and could not be por-
swnrieri to put his hand into his pocket to seo if
it was there. He was sore—positive, it wa-
not. Mrs. Irby approached him with an irre
sistible smile, put her hand into his waistenn!
nocket and drew out the identical key. She
did notlaugb, she did not give a look Of triumph,
hut went nnd sat down to her employment.
‘Mvdenr,’ nt length she said, ‘why don’t
you open the drawer, now you have tho key V
‘O, it’s no consequence—it will do just es
well another time/
Mrs. It by wns tempted by the evil ono to
tell her husband it wns-barrily worth while to
get so out of patience about a matter of no
consequence—but she was a .model of discre
tion end said not another word.
This was exceedingly provoking. Half the
time Mr. Irby had nobody ,to dispute with tt-
bout nothing, and it is be* adulI butiDMS to be
angry nlooe. He mad* divers attempts to put
hie wife cut of patience, but all in vain. j
neither joined in hiiangar against others, no/
gave him occasion io be angry with herself, ~
