A peripatetic pedlar of geuuiae
$2.50 razor for fifty cents each,
“just to start them,” on the cor
ner the other day had quite a
crowd of “cullored gemmau” list
ening to his word painting and
genera'ly interesting them in his
wares grew eloquent and said:
“Old Father Times has rolled
around the cycle of seasons and
brought us in sight of ‘possum and
taters’ once more.”
Here one old darkey' nudged

“The man who don’t like the

the lean and the fat so blended
and running into each other form
a sort of anima! manna, with big
round yam* precipitately piled
against his reeking aides, making
one ambrosial result, is fit for
treason, strategems and spoils.”

the words and they universally ex
claimed. “Ain’t it so ”

“A nice baked possum, stuffed
with sage and onions hath a fair
sepulchre in the grateful stomach
of the judicious epicure—and for
such a tomb his oppossnmship
might ba content to die.”
The old darkey could stand it
no longer and moved away saying,
