It’s the Way Yon Say It. There is a man in this city who wants killing. He has got a way of paralyzing people that will bring him into trouble, The man we speak of is sharper than tacks, and well posted on all topics of interest, and can converse and entertain those he may be thrown in contact with as well as anybody. He can put on a va cant expression and seem world. to be the He most ignorant person, in the and introduced was at a party recently, was to a young lady from an interior city who was a guest, and the first thing he said to her after the compliments of the season, was : exactly „ Th^young he driving l _ at, com- and prebend pardon, wliat was when he remarked said beg etc., dead, and toiler that Greeley was and added he P ut 011 a sorrowful expression that ( ' 1 ' ee le v ' vas a S 1 *®' man - ih< ! had - known of tne decease of g r]( who 1 1 great editor for many years, was ps tonished at the man, and looked at him as though she thought he was far behind f^Sout fht H t ., m his interesting conversatffin asngasr and might not have out in the country, girl later heard of it.” The was seen m in the the evening, It a ® s ^ ri | al ?°^ 1 ^ death as matter of news. The other girl said she didn't know. She saw him at a picnic last summer, and while they was opening canned pigs’feet and chicken, he talked continually; about Stewart s eat a mouthful. He says lie finds that in conversation at parties that it gives a better tone to it to bring in some his tom subject, instead ot continually something talking about the weather, or deal of interest by bringing up thesubject of the prize fight between Sullivan and Paddy Ryan, but he said they didn’t seem to catch on to it at first, though before he got through he said he could have sold pools on the fight. Some men are born paralyzers. We have in mind now a young board of trade man who was out to a club house last fall shooting ducks. He is a dry joker, and his face never betrays him, always maintaining a serious expression when he wants it to. Ha was introduced to a local preacher, who, when lie heard that the gentleman »ith on.
