l The following is a tran-iation of a German bid
lad on a tipsy man, which has been set to music, and is
often sung in Germany ; it is rather droll in the origi
nal, and perhai>s has not lost a!! its humor iu being
overset, as they call it, into English:
Out of the Tavern.
Out of the tavern I’ve just stepped to-night;
Street! you are caught in a very bad plight;
Right hand and left hand both out of place—
Street 1 you are drunk, Tis a very clear case.
Moon! ’tis a very queer figure you cut.
One eye is starting while t’oher is shut;
Tipsy, I see, ami you’re greatly to blame;
Old a you are, ’tis a horrible shame!
Tlieu the street lamps, what a scandalous sight!
None of them soberly standing upright;
Rocking and staggering—why, on mv word,
Each of the lamps is as drank as a lord.
AH is confusion; now, isn’t it odd ?
I am the only thing sober abroad ;
Sure it were rash with this crew to remain—
Better go into the tarern again!
New York Crystal Palace.
The most sanguine hope* of the promoters of this
enterprise in the ultimate popularity of the undertaking
have been rapidly realized. Considerable time elapsed
before the subscription of $200,000 capital lyas tilled
up, and now the stock is selling upwards of seventy
dollars premium. The books were opened last April,
pttsuant to a charter obtained from the New York leg
islature on the 11th of March, incorporating the compa
ny under the name of the “Association for the Exhibi
tion of the Industry of all Nations.” Having secured
the requisite funds, the board of directors proceeded to
avail themselves of the liberality of the city govern
ment, which had granted them the nse of Reservoir
square for five years, for the purpose of the exhibition,
on condition that their building should be constructed
of iron and glass, and that the admission fee to the ex
hibition should not exceed 50 cents. They adopted the
plan for a building submitted by Messrs. Car.~ten.sen
and Gildemeister,of which the main features are as fol
lows :
It is, with the exception of the floor, entirely con
structed of iron and glass. The general idea of the ed
ifice is a Greek cross, surmounted by a dome at the in
tersection. Each diameter of the cross will be 365 feet
5 inches long. There will be three similar entrances:
one on the Sixiti avenue, one on Fortieth, and one on
Forty -second street. Each eutranee will la- 47 foot
wide, and that on the Sixth avenue will be approached
by a flight of eight steps; over each front i- a targe
semi-circular fan-light, 41 feet wide and 21 feet high,
answering to the arch of the nave. Each arm of the
cross is on the ground plan 14 * feet broad This is di
vided into a central nave and two aisles, one on each
side; the nave 41 feet wide, each aisle 54 feet wide
The central portion or uave is carried up to the height
of 67 feet, and the semi-circular arch hv which it is
sjtanned is 41 feet broad. They are thus in effect two
arched naves crossing each other at right angles, 41 feet
broad, 67 feet high to the crown of the arch, and 565
feet long; and on each side of these naves is an aisle 54
feet broad, and 45 feet high. The exterior of the ridge
wav of the nave is 71 feet. Each aide is coveted by a
fallow of its own width, and “4 feet from the floor.—
I he central dome is 100 feet in diameter, 6s feet inside
from the floor to the spring of the arch, and 118 feet to
the crown; and on the outside, with the lantern, 149
feet. The exterior angles of the buildiug arc ingenious
ly filled up with a triangular lean to 54 leet high, which
gives the ground plan an octagonal shape, each side or
face being 14‘.t feet wide. At each angle is an octago
nal tower 8 feet in diameter, and 75 feei high.
Ten large and eight w inding stair-easel connect
the principal tioor with the gallery, which oj>ens on the
three balconies that are situated over the entrance-halls.
The building coutains on the ground floor 111,'h*o
square feet of space, and in its galleries, which are 54
feet wide, 42,t>fo square feet more—making a total area
of 173,'HX) square feet for the purpose of exhibition.—
There are thus on the ground floor two acres and a
halt) or exactly 5 52-1.>3; iu the galleries one acre and
44,100; total,” within au inconsiderable fraction, four
HCfflS.
The dome is supported by 24 columns, which go up
above the second story to a height of 62 feet above the
floor, and support a combination of wrought-iron arches
and girders, on which rests u cast-iron bed-plate, cocon
structed as to receive the 52 ribs of the dome.
The quantity of iron to be used for the building will
amount to about 1,250 tons. The roof will cover au
area of Ik*,*-•'") square feet. The glass for the building
will amount to 3'.*,000 square feet, in ‘27 panes, 16 by
54 or 5s inches.
The construction of the building is prosecuted w ith
energy, and its completion is assured on the 2d of May
next. Meantime, arrangements on the most extensive j
scale are in progress to secure a brilliant representation
of the choicest productions of the world’s industry in
both hemispheres. Mr. Buscheek, the foreign agent of
the company, by experience acquires! in the capacity of
ci'imuLssioner of the Austrian department at the Lon
d >n exhibition of ls.il, long commercial life, and excel
lent social posiiion. is eminently qualified to secure the
co operation of the manufacturer* of Europe, and his
exer.iuus are seconded by our diplomatic representa
tives abroad, laical committees are organized in The
principal manufacttiring and commercial centre of the
t rated States, and their edicient action promi.-es to se
cure the fullest and most extensive display ot the pro
ducts of American industry.
The most liberal countenance and encouragement to
the undertaking has been afforded by the public authori
ties, in the grant of Reservoir Square for the building
bv the city, of a charter to the association by the State,
and lastly by the fedeial government in making the
building 3 funded warehouse, for the reception of
foreign articles, dutv fiw.— Horn? Journal.
A Cuban Volatile.
I will extend this digression to explain that a “vo
Lute is a far more ostentatious vehicle than the pri
vate carriage of am other country. The lady riding in
it is as much seen as in her eusy-vhairai home - always
bare-headed, usually hare-shouldered, and with her
. jewels upon her neck and wrists, her fan spread, and
| her face undisguisedlv made tip to lie admired. Ihe
’ body of the vulante is that of the old-fashioned
rhai.e, with one seat, carrying piopcrly but two
persons. The shafts are so ’ long, and the horse with
hv postillion astride of him is so far ahe..d, that it

‘hvniurc, ha.ing this flowing iqq<cndage braided and
■?btly drawn around and Listened to his side. (The
bjet of the law, I believe, is to secure the passenger
narrow streets, ft-om being spatteterf by the
* aisLiiig of the numerous tails in muddy weather; but
cruel in sh-time, besides giving the eieature a meet
‘'* J'ed and inelegant appearance.) 111-contrived as

Feats or tub Chinese Jcgcllks. —A oorrespon-!
dent of :lie Lowed 17 uc Popnl, thus describes one ofi
the performance-- of the Chinese jugglers in Sun Frau-1
cisco:
A plunk sivte. n inches wide and six feet high was
] laced at the back of the stage, and the impalcr with I
knives took his stand about fifteen or twenty feet in]
fr ont of it. The knives were about seven-inch blade-,
and four-inch bam lies, strong and pointed. After plat
ing with them fora time, tossing and whirling them 111
a most wonderful manner, lie threw them one after an
other, fastening them firmly iu the plank before him.—
He them drew them out, and another Chinaman took
his stand before the plank, or rather at the side of it,
holding ‘-tit his ami across the same, and the impair!
threw one knife above and another below it, as closely
as they could have been placed there by the most carr
lul hand, fastening his ami u;,un the plank. Theothet
arm was then reached across and fastened in the sum
way, the knives sticking firmly and the handles cross
ing each other. The I liinan-an then readied forward
his head, and quick as thought two knives were thrown,
the one above and the oilier below his neck, seemingly
witluu one-fourth of an inch on either side. Such pre
cision and daring was truly wonderful, and ihe whoh
evening’s performance elicited unbounded applause.

\\ e are indebted 10 a gentleman who has been on a
btief visit to the provinces for the follow ing outlines
of a speech, delivered by Mens, in the Provincial
Legislature of New Brunswick, one of the (’atonies of
her M. G. M. Victoria :
(Reported for the Courier and Enquirer.)
Monsieur Corner and de peoples on dis House e
Monsieur Speakare—l’m very stranger on dis places
and dis am premier time I am on dis House; but d<
peonies where was I belong gives me his confidence s.
much zat 1 feel gra'efulness to dein for de honor de
refer on de lop of me.
Gentreman, you not spec* great deal of learn for on*
people da. only s:o;> two years wid one school on house
him, derefore, you sail seuze my Anglais very much.—
One ting I want—to had a fair play. You had om
priest on dis House au jour to make a depraver, and
dat time I will he sail pray on de French when he saii
prayer, as de reason are de French prayer are none
strong.
Some people was told me w e was so get some gold
watch, and some gown for de vitb of zose as belong to
dis House-; ami some little ting more, as paper, do
knife, de ting for pick tooth, and de ting for make smell
go**!. I must have all dis little tings.
I wants to have ray bov anew collars, and I want to
pass one law s for stop de dam inatrliand for sharges
so niosb; mine oncle was told to mo de sharge was
boniin.itior. high. De nex law I want to make will be
to stop dent dam witch ting—l forget what vou call de
Messorizc—dat make de peoples look as dies. Some
people was told me dem feller she’s able to make dead
de people; able to make sing; to make talk; to make
told every ting on de House-de money dat you bad
on your jocket; and dey make told some ting more as
ten tousand mile. All wat people wat make de morize,
dat is surely one danger ting, very, and for a law
should make.
Well, dere is one more kind. You may depcii dem
same fellar make rotten de potats, yes, dis five and six
year; make lame de horse; make spile de cow; make
not grow all the grain very mosli; make kill all de peo
ples all same as one good doctor do it. Now we must
hang all de hole of it.
Now Monsieure Sjieakarc, de next ting we sail took
in bands in dis Road Rail dat is speak so mash about.
I tink for me dey will tenancy for spile all de farm.—
Am tote dey will cut open all *l*- farm where was 1 be
long : and the French people have small enough al
ready. But spose you ma.ee ue Road Rail you must stop
his damage, and only way you could done dat, you
must cut away all dem bits and let de water salt on de
mash, de mash all now stop for grow de grass. Mv fa
ther was tohl me long as I am born de hay was grow
so b:g, de cock not possible lor stay on de mash. Dis
are bad law.
Now gentreman, I want you look on your consider, I
tink we must try for stop tie dam Yankee for raise de
wooden p;g. Mv cousin was bought one large should
er behind ; I tink he weigh forty pound ; well, for look
she II do pretty well, but for ea: she de devil. Spose de
peoples have to eat dis kind pork, dey not live much
long. Dem rascal Yankee mus be kill.
Now dis tunder and lightnin road, some folks was
tell me was more last you san’t see. I tink dev will be
great danger ting, suppose one people lmve some steel
on her pocket for contraction de under, dey mus be kill
right away. Yes, dey’il lx* made so notf one bail-putt’.
I w ant to stop every ting as make de people kill; dis
ting I make speak about, dem is de ting l vote; for I
tole you all on de House I hole myself responsibility to
de peoples for all de law made. Gentreman you will I
tank fordo contention you been make upon me; I’m
I val subjic and belong to de free restitutions. Dat’s all
l could say dis time.
Whxt Mils. Smith Said. —“ Saint Agatha! Not
been out of the city this summer?”
“ No. Jones said he could’nt afford it.”
“My dear, innocent Abigail! Mr. Jones smokes his
forty-nine* cigars a day, as usual ; dont he?”
“ Yes.”
“ W ell; be rides horseback every morning.”
“ Well; he plays billiards and takes his sherry and
hock, and all thas sort o’ thing down town. Don’t
be ?”
“ Yes.”
“ Well; put /■!'■( ,:nl that toffrilur ! Just so Smith
told me- couldn’t aflbrd it. 1 didn’t dispute the point;
it was too much trouble. I smiled just as sweetly at
him as if I didn’t knew it was all a humbug; but I
very quietly went to niv boudoir and dispatched a note
to that jewel of a doctor, , saying that I should
lx- taken suddenly ill about the time Smith came home
to dinner, ami shouldn’t probably recover till after a
trip to Saratoga or Niagara, or some other of those
quiet places. Well, he is as keen as a briar; and when
Smith sent for him, he came in and found me in a
state of “fore i dained exhaustion,” in the hands of my
maid Libby. He felt my pulse, looked w Lse and oracu
lar ami said I must have a change of air. Os course, I
objected, declared I never could bear to be moved, was
quite entirely run down, Ac. Doctor said, “He
wouldn’t he answerable for the consequences,” and fi
nally to oblige .Mr. Smith, I gave in! Understand!—
Nothing like a little diplomacy. Always use the check
rein ! my dear, if you want to start Jones in anew di
rection. Men are little contrary, that’s all! They’d
be “perfect treasures,” every mother's sou of them, if
it wasn’t for that!” Fanny Fern.
How the Continentals stood in Arms. —To a man
they wore small clothes, coming down and fastening
just below the knee, and long stockings, with cowhide
shoes ornamented with large buckles ; while not a pair
of boots graced the company. The coats and waist
coats were loose and of huge dimensions, with colors
as various as the barks of oak. sumach, and other trees
of our hills and swamps could make them; aud their
shirts were all made of flax, and like every other pari
of the dress, were homespun. On their heads was
worn a large round-top and broad-brimmed hat. Their
arms was as various as their costume. Here an old sol
dier carried a Queen-Ann, which had done service at
the conquest of Canada twenty years previous, while
by bis side walked a stripling boy with a Spanish fuzee
not half its weight or calibre, which his grand-father
raav have taken at the Havana, while not a few had
old French pieces that (fitted bock to the reduction of
Louisburg. Instead of the cartridge-box, a large pow
der-horn was slung nnd -r the arm, and occasionally a
bayonet might be seen bristiiug in the ranks. Some of
the swords of the officers had been made by our pro
vince blacksmiths, pet haps of some farming utensil;
thev looked serviceable, but heavy and uncouth. Such
was the appearance of the Continentals, to whom a
well appointed army was soon so lav down their arms.
After a little exercising on the old Cannon, and per
forming the then popular exploir of “ whipping the
snake,’ thev briskley tiled the road Ire the toot of the
Kidder Mountain, and through the Spatfonl Gap, to
wards Peterboro’, to the tune of “Over the hills and far
away.” —History .Yen’ J;*ickh.
