TUE M(W M®o3o ©TT □ “ Care to our coffin adds a nail no doubt, But every grin of laughter draws one out! ’ Pretty Good. —Who is the author of the following we know not. W e found it in an old newspaper that looked like it was print ed when Adam was a boy. Sambo was a slave to a master who was constitutionally addicted to lying. Sambo being strongly devoted to his master, had | bv dint of long practice, made himself an | adept in giving plausibility to his master’s large stories. One day, when the master was entertain ing his guests in his customary manner, u ntong other marvellous facts, he related an incident which took place in one of bis limit ing excursions. “ 1 fired at a buck,” said lie, “ at n hun dred yards distance, and the bail passed through his left hind foot, and through his head just back of his ears !” This evidently produced soinelittle doubt in the midst of his guests, lie called upon Sambo to corroborate him. “ Yes, rnassa,” says the almost conftinded slave, after a moment’s hesitation, “ me see de bail hit cm : .lcs as massa lif up de gun to he eye.de buck lif up bis bin footto’crach him ear, and massa’s ball went cleai thogh him foot an head, bof at do same time.” The guests were perfectly satisfied witli Sambo's explanation, and swallowed the whole without further hesitation ; but when the guests were gone, Sambo ventured up on bis master’s good humor so far as to re monstrate. “ For God a’mity sake massa, when you tell anudder sich a big lie, don’t put uni so fur apart; me hab debblish hard work lor get umtogedder!” My hearers—why don’t you laugh and grow fat, instead of worrying thespirit from its home, and fiettingthe flesh from its tim bers 1 A well got up laugh aids digestion —clears the cobwebs from the brain—causes the soul to efTervesce with hope and good humor; and makes a hearty meal of sot row to sit as lightly on the heart as a greased ball of cotton upon the stomach of tin ana conda. There is nothing like having a can teen of good cheer by on’s side while trav elling through such a world of sin, misfor tune and misery as this. A smile will drive dull care away, while a frown only serves to swell the seeds of wo implanted in the human heart, and causes them to put forth sprouts of evil, which may be found difficult to eradicate if left to flourish and gain strength by the fosterings of foolishness and folly. Look upon all sides of all things, but dwell on the bright side. Be prudent, hut not parsimonious—and provide for the soul as well as for the stomach : keep your feet warm —your heads cool—your pockets in pennies, and your hea-its in cheer. Then let insect cares butt against your bosoms ; you will care no more for them than a rat tail file for the nibblings of an adde*—for you are rendered proof to all such petty an noyances, while performing the pleasanthut perilous pilgrimage to the grave. — Dow, Jr. Posing a Pedagogue. —“ Sally Jones, have you done this sum I set you 1” “ No thir, 1 can’t do it.” “ Can't do it! I’m ashamed of you. Why at vour age I could do any sum that was set me. 1 hate that word can’t ! For there is no sum that can’t be done, I can tell you.” “ l think, thir, that 1 kuowth a ilium you can’t tliifer out,” “ Ha! well, well, Sally ; let’s hear it.” “ It is thith, thir : If one apple cauthcd the ru'ui of the whole human rathe, lmw many thuch will it. take to make a barrel of thweet thider, thir ?” “Mis Sally Jones—you may turn to your parsing lesson.” “ Yctli, thir.” A celebrated dandy was, one evening, in company with a young lady, and observed her kiss her favorite poodle. lie advanced and begged the like favor, remarking that she ought to have as much charity for him ns she had shown to a dog. “ Sir,” said the belle, I never kissed my dog while lie was a puppy'’ The fellow took the hint and was otf instanter. T/ic ruling Passion. —Aveiy old lady in this city, who has been from lier youth a de voted admirer of the “ Statesman of Ken tucky,” on reading Miller’s prediction of the general smash in 1843, exclaimed “I know it; I always said some darned thing or other would happen to prevent Clay’s election J” “ Never kiss two girls at once,” wisely advises l)u Solle. We got. kissed, says the SSuntlay Times, by two at once, by running our face between them just as they weie going to kiss each other. I here wits noth ing particularly unpleasant about that. An Intorwating Glass. —“ YV in* is that lovely girl !” exclaimed tbo waggish Lord Norbury, riding in company with his long eared friend Counsellor Gr.malty. “Miss Glass,” replied the barrister. “ Glass !” re iterated the facetious judge ; “by the love which man bears to woman, l should often become intoxicated could l place such a glass to my lips /” The counsellor fell from his horse in a lit of apoplexy. Worse than the toothache. —A Dutchman in proceeding to a place from whence he heard the cries of distress, discovered one of his neighbors lying under a stone wall which had fallen upon him and fractured his legs. “ Well den neighbor Vanderdiken, vat ish de matter vid you 1” “ Vat! vy you see mine conditions vid nil dish pig stones upon me, and potli mine legs piokc oil'close py mine poddy.” “ Mine Cot,” said llonie, “Is dat all! you hollowed so like de tivel, I thought you was got the toothache.” The form with which the old governess, mixing upgracc with gracefulness, duly pre faced the rice milk, batter puddings, and raspberry bolsters of her female pupils, was this: “ For what wc are going to leccive —elbows—elbows! —the Lord make us— backs in and shoulders down—truly thank ful—and no chattering—Amen.” Strange. —When a man is thrown from . his gig the papers say he was accidentally \ thrown—as if there were cases in which men had been purposely thrown out—to ob tain a broken limb for the benefit of the sur gical profession. “ Why, where are you going s"> early Filzfrizzle V’ said a staid, sober citizen to a soap-lock dandy. “ So eawly !” said the dandy, repeating ! the last part of the query—“wlioy —I—l'm I going to the cattle show to be suaw.” “O, you are, are you 1” said citizen so bersides, “ I didn’t know that there was a premium offered for asses there.” The dandy looked at him throughhis quiz zing glass for fully ten minutes. Cure far lore. —Take a grain of sense half a grain of patience, one drachm of under standing, one ounce of disdain, a pound of resolution and a handful of dislike. Mix them together, fold them in the limbec of your brain for twenty four hours set them on the slow fire of hatred, strain it clear from the dross of melancholy, stop it down with the cark of sound judgment, and let it stand nine days in the water of cold affection. This rightly made and fully applied is the most effectual cure in the world. You can get it at the house of understanding, in con tent street, going up the hill of self denial, county forgetfulness in the state of peace. “ Shall I cut this loin of mutton saddle wise V said a gentleman. “ No,’ said one of his guests ; “ cut it bridlewise, for then I may chance to get a hit in my mouth.” tJ xj.m tram i'jmamm t.r Ma—prgwpjtut vea <e •■•g a; H'lJKUßiu—BMaa AIWIgESYOSHIMIIMm - Morgan Sheriff’s Sales.
