“Mine neighbor, Wilhelm, vot

Slag, of his neighbor Yon dBweiteef;
the twelfth Ward Blacksmith, last
evening;'as he seated himself' beside

‘I finks much,’ said Sweitzel, giving
his pipe a long whiff.’
‘Yell, vot you links ?’ **
‘I comes to der conclusion dat Poli

a draught from-his mug, ‘how do you

How.to Commence Business.
One of the wealthiest merchants of*i
NeW* York city tells us h<5W he com
menced business:—I entered a. store
and asked it a clerk was not 'wanted?
“ No,” in a rough tone was the answer,
a\l being too busy to bother with me.
Then I reflected Chat if they did not
want a cletk they mightfwatit a laborer,
but I was'dressed too finefortliatt £
went to my lodgings, put Oh a-rough
garb, and the next day went into the
same'store and demanded if they did
not want a.pQrter, and again, “ No sir,”
was the response. “NYell,” 1 exclaimed,,
almost in despair, “ a laborer? Sir, I
will Work at any wages. Wages is
not my object—I must have employ
ment, and I want to be useful in busi
ness.” The last remark attfoeted their
attention; and in the end, I was hired
in fhe'bosement and sub-cellar at a
ver%low pay, scarcely-enough to keep
body and soul together. -Ia-the base
ment and s(lb-cellar I very soon at
tracted the attention of the Ggtffiting
house and chief efcrk, I saved enough

The proper'remedy for all'these mis-

your ladyship should admit of prop

time to consider of. Whether yeuS*

Proofs that the Moon is not Inliah-
Red,
Dr. Sepresby, in. an accou-gt~tbat-he
has given of some recent observations'
made with the Earl of Rosse’s Leviathdn
telescope, says: “Witli'respect to the
moon, every ol >ject on its surface^ of
100 feet was now distinctly to be seen;
and he had no- doubt, that under very
favorable eireuinstanfces, it would be
s© with'objects 60 feet in height. On
■ds-'surface were craters of extinct vol
canoes, rocks and masses • of stone al
most innumerable. He had no doubt
.whatever that ifsiich a building as he
was then in were upon the surface of
tlie moon, it would be - rendered dis
tinctly visible by these instruments.—
But there were no signs of habitations
such as ours—no vestiges of architectu
ral remains lo show that the moon is
or ever >yas inhabited by a race of
mortals similar to ourselves. It pre
sented no appearance's which could
lead to the supposition that it contain
ed anything like the green .fieldsand
lovely verdure of this beautiful world
of ours. There was no -watei visible—-
not-a sea, or a river, or even the meas
ure of.a reservoir for supplying town
sofa?
or factory; all seemed desolate.”
