HUMOROUS. MR MURPHY, O? DEKALB. One of the funniest fellows of Christendom, is Bob Murphy, of DeKalb. Generally, however, he keeps his fun for select circles, out of doors; and until la t wee'x was never known to make a demonstia tion in the House (of which he has been a member for six sessions,) not even to the extent ot making a motion. Observant, shrewd and humorous, he has contented himself with “ murdering ” those soft ones, who on small capital essay to seem to do much by vociferating 44 Mr. Speaker.” Occasionally his victim is some right smart fellow, and in the instance to which we would more particularly refer, was a gentle man of sense, education and worth, Michael King, Esq., of Madison. To “do” Mr. King, however, Bob was obliged to “ meet him on the floor” Premising that the gentleman from Madison dresses fashionably and sometimes wears ruffles, while Bob is enclosed in plain substantial wal nut-dved coat and breeches, with the occasional addition of a blanket coat; we go on to say that last Mon day evening Mr. King made a thun dering speech against the appropria te re-huiid the Capitol. He spoke of “ log-rolling,” “ intrigue,” “balls and suppers,” “responsibility to constituents,” and so on. To the astonishment of everyone, Bob rose to reply. A friend notified us of what was going on, but as Bob’s speech was short, and the lobby was very crowded, we only heard a very small portion thereof. It was thus: “ Mr. Speaker : I have been with the gentleman on all sorts of meas ures. He has hardly ever called on me but what I was ready to serve him. And sir, he talks about 4 in trigue.’ Yes, sir, though they never asked me to their balls and suppers —because, I suppose, they knowed that a blanket coat wasn’t the thing for balls —I am in favor of the ap propriation. It’s no use talkin’ a bout what my constituents will say about it—one half of’em don’t know whar the seat of Government is! No, sir, when they hear of it the’ll say 4 hooraw Bob !’ That’s what they always say when they hear I’ve done any thing, no matter what. But sir they’ve pulled and hauled me every way to make me vote eve ry way and on every measure, and the gentleman has been the most con stant customers I’ve had. I have been grindin’ most of Ins meal for some time. For all he dresses as fine as silk, and his ruffles crackle in the winds of heaven, while his boot heels makes holes three inches deep into the bowels of the yetli— lor all this he frequently says 4 Bob, do so,’ and I scarcely ever deny him. Oncet I voted for his little town, Huntsville, to have a bank, to pleas ure him ; and only last night he came to my room at the hour of mid night, to ask me to vote for somethin else, and ses I, ‘A ing, Tm wi * ye /’ But, sir, on the ’propriation I’m with the patriarchs of the revolution. I’d go with Mike if I could,but time and chance and other things bust up our connection. He’s a nice man, and has knowin’ constituents; while mine’s so glad to get any body to represent ’em, they take up wi’ me. However, I see the gentleman from Tusealoosa lookin’ like he had some thin’ to say about his little precinct, which wants the State House —so I’ll say far’well to my friend from Madison, ruffles, boots, log-rolling, oyster suppers and all: My lovin friends, I say far’well, My feelin’s it is hard to tell— and if I ever took a drink, or eat a goober in Montgomery without pay ing for it, let him 4 show his papers and I’ll foot the bill.’ ” — Chambers Tribune. In Paris anew stjffe of pocket has introduced. 44 Ours is without change, says a candid cotemporary. Every time a man breaks a Di vine law, he adds a thorn to the rod hi pickle for his own back. An Lvo u tary Thf. —We no- 1 ticed a little occurrence a short time ago, which has given cause to con siderable merriment, at the expense of a countryman, in Alsace town ship, near the city line, who lost his leather purse containing a small amount of money in notes, in the following singular manner: 44 He was loading wood on his wagon,when he observed a rabbit in the pile, which lie caught. Remo ving a few more sticks, another made its appearance, and in order to secure it, he tied the hind legs of the captured one with the strings of his purse, and in fancied security laid down the rabbit, when it started off at a fleet gallop with purse and money. The countryman pursued it for upwards of six miles, when, getting exhausted and out of breath, he gave up the chase. There is still some force in the old saw, that a hawk in the hand is worth two on the wing.— Berks County Press. The Ominous Sign. —About thirty years since, a gentleman of the le gal profession, whom we will call D-, located himself in one of the eastern villages, and having pro cured an office, was in every way prepared for giving them 44 law and order,” with the exception of a sign, which of course being necessary, he remarked to some friends that he must look up one. The evening following the remark, as one who heard it was passing a rope walk, he saw an old sign near the poor, which he concluded would be full as appropriate in another place ; and accordingly took it to D’s office and placed it in the usual place. Next morning as D., sat in his of fice he noticed that he received rather more than Lis share of at tention from those passing, and on going out as he casually turned his head, what should he see but the following laocnic inscription direct ly over his door. 44 All sorts of Turn ing and Twisting done Here.” It is unnecessary to add that although his sign was removed, D., proved to be a very-successful advocate in the halls of justice. 44 Hallo ? ’ ejaculated an anxious guardian to his lovely niece, as he entered the parlor and saw her on the sofa, in the arms of a swain who had popped the question, and sealed it with a smack, 4 what’s the time of day now? 5 .* I should think it was about half-past twelve,’ was the cool reply, 4 you see we are al most one. 1 “How much will you charge me for ahorse and carriage to-day?” asked a well known individual of a stable keeper, on a day when hor ses were in great demand. “ Four dollars,” responded the other, and pointing to an antiquated frame of a quadruped at that. “Ah ! my dear sir, you must have misunder stood me; I wish to hire the horse, not to buy him.” An editor says that a friend of his carries his sense of honor so far as to keep him in constant idle ness, because he does not wish to take advantage of time. Bad books and bad company were, in the opinion of Sir Peter Lely, like bad pictures. He said he could never look at these with out vitiating his style. 44 There’s a great demand,” says a Yankee pedlar, “ for a species of plaster, which will enable gentle men to stick to their business.” 44 Pa, what makes the people go to hear Webster, if they have all got to be put in irons?” 44 To be put in irons ! Simon, what do you mean ?” 44 Why, the papers say, that at his great speech t’other day, the en tire audience were chained to the spot.” “ Susan, put this boy to bed as quick as possible.” Fun in Agriculture. —Douglas Jerrold says, “ Earth is so kind in Australia, that just tiekle it with a hoe, and she laughs with a liar -1 vest.” ; SPRING- SUPPLY, WHOLESALE GROCERYSTOi>E SAVAMNAU, GfCRGI A. 100 h lulu Prime New Orleans Suj/.ir. 50 do Prime Porto R.co do 50 do Prime New Orleans clarified Sugar 100 bids While clarified Sugar. 100 do Straw do do 25'J boxes 11.

It is a mineral substance, and has been found upon analyzation by Dr. Chilton, of the city ot New York, to consist ot larger proportions of Silicia Alumine, Prut. Oxide of lion and Mag nesia, with lesser of Lime and Carbon. It is used extensively for covering roofs of either shingles, matched boards, tin, zinc, sheet iron or thick paper, if your shingles have been on for years, you have only to sweep off the moss and lint, with a stiff bloom, and cover with two or three good coats, and in a few months you have a perfect slate roof, impervious to the action of the weather and fire. There is nothing equal to it for steamboats and car decks, for all kinds of iron it forms a coating nearly as hard as the iron itself, and never cleavesoff. It should be used for everything that you wish to protect from fire and weather. In some places a spuriou3 article hasbeen sold as the genuine, therefore purchasers should be careful to buy of authorized Agents. Every Bbl. is marked BLAKE’S FIREPROOF PAINT. The above Paint is for sale by C. A. L. LAMAR, sept 13 ts Savannah, Ga. AYER’S CHERRY PECTORAL. FOR THE CURE OF Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Bronchitis, TVhoo ping Cough, Asthma and Consumption. The uniform success which has attended the use of tills preparation-its salutary eflect-its pow er to relieve and cure affections of the Lungs, have gained for it a celebrity equalled by no other medicine. We offer it to the afflicted with entire confidence in its virtues, and the full belief that it will subdue and remove the severest attacks of disease upon the throat and Lungs. These results, as they become publicly known, very naturally attract the at tention of medical men and philanthropists everywhere. What is their opinion ol CHER RY PECTORAL may be seen in the follow VALENTINE MOTT, M. D, Prof. Surgery .Med. College , JVeio York, says : It gives me pleasure to certify the value and efficacy of Ayer’s CHERRY PECTO RAL, which 1 consider peculiarly adapted to cure diseases of the Throat and Lungs.” THE KT. REV. BISHOP FIELD writes in a letter to his friend, who was fast sinking under an affection of the Lungs:— ” Try the CHERRY PECTORAL, and it any medicine can give you relief, with the bles sin<>” of God that will.” CHIEF JUSTICE EUSTIS, of Louisiana, writes “ That a young daughter of his was cured of several severe attacks of Croup by the < CHERRY PECTORAL.” ASTHMA AND BRONCHITIS. The Canadian Journal of .Medical Science states, “That Asthma and Bronchitis soprev alerit in this inclement climate, lias yielded with surprising rapidity to Ayer’s CHERRY PECTORAL, and we cannot too strongly re commend this skilful preparation to the Pro fession and Public generally.” READ THE EVIDENCE. Albany, N. Y., April 17, 1848. Dr. Ayer, Lowell—Dear Sir:—l have for years been afflicted with Asthma in the worst lorm ; so that I have been obliged to sleep in my chair for a larger part of the time, being unable to breathe on my bed. I had tried a great many medicines to no purpose, until my r Physician proscribed, as an experiment, your CHERRY PECTORAL. At first it seemed to make me worse, but in less than a week 1 began to experience the most gratifying relief!’ rom its use ; and now, in four weeks the disease is entirely removed. I can sleep on iny bed with comfort, and en joy a state of health which I had never ex pected to enjoy. GEORGE S. FARRANT. PREPARED BY J. C. AYER, CHEMIST, LOV/EI.L, MASS.
