Blobbs, ’Ary-slpelas V* “Nary-sippelas !” was Blobbs’ sententious bu t emphatic reply. But Blobbs met him afterwards, and asked him if ho had heard that the “collery” was here ? “No !** alarinodly answered his friend ; “what cholera—the Asiatic ?” “No ; the paper collar-y,” said Blobbf, darting into the St. Nicholas’ Saloon, and taking a smile at friend John through a glass. History ok a Typo.—Printers beat the world and .11 the rest of mankind, hut their wives. We know of one who preached the gospel, ran a side ehow to a circus, kept a singing school, drove a stage coach, ran away with a man’s wife and two children, practiced medicine, been an agent for a con cert troupe, and clerk of a steamboat. He has now reformed, and settled down to a legitimate busiuess—that of localising for a daily newspaper. He will make his mark in the course of time.
