POETRY.
The Itluhlrii'ii llcanliillon.
Oh I I'll tell you of a fellow,
Of a fellow I have seen,
Who Is neither white or yellow,
But is altogether green I
Then his name it isn't charming,
For it's otdy common Bill ''
And lie wishes me to wed him,
Hut I hardly think I will,
He has told inc of a cottage,
Of a cottage 'lining the trees,
And don't you think the gawkey
Tumbled on his knees?
While the tears the fellow wasted
Where enough to turn a mill,
And he begged me to accept him,
But I hardly think I will.
Oh, he whispered of devotion,
Of devotion pure and deep,
But It seemed so very silly
That I nearly fell asleep,
And he thinks it would he pleasant
As we journey down the hill,
To go hand in hand together,
But I hardly think 1 will.
He was here last night to see me,
And he made so long a stay,
1 began to think the blockhead
Never meant to go away.
At the first I learned to hate him,
And I know I hate him still,
Yet he urges me to have him,
But I hardly think I will.
I am sure I wouldn't choose him,
But the very deuce is in it
And he says if I refuse him
That he could not live a minute ;
And you know the blessed Bible,
Plainly say s " wo must not kill'
So I've thought the matter over,
And I rather think, I will.
MISCELLANEOUS.
During; the month of January, 1S50,
while stopping' nt the Suiter House in
Sacramento city, California, I atxiih'ntally
ovrrncaru a conversation between two
jrenUemen, one of whom was from New
York City and hnd been in ihe country
nearly a year, and the other had just
arrived.
The new coiner waa lamenting his con
dition, and his folly in leaving an abun
dance at home and especially two beauti
ful daughters, who were just budding into
womanhood when ho asked tlie New
Yorker if he had a family.
' Yes sir, I have a wife and six children
in New York, and I never saw one of
them," was the answer.
After this reply the couple snt n few
moments in silence ; then the interrogator
aain commenced :
" Was you ever blind, sir j"
"NoMr."
" Did yon marry a widow, sir ?"
" No, sir."
Another lapse of silence.
" Did I understand you to say, sir, that
you had a wife and six children living in
New York, and never saw one of them."
" Yes, sir I so stated."
Another and a longer pause of silence.
Then the interrogator again inquired:
" How can it bo sir, that you never saw
one of them V
" Why." was the response, " one of
them wn. bom after I left."
Oh ! ah ! and a general laugh followed.
and after that the New Yorker was espe
cially distinguished as the man who had
six children and never saw one of them.
A DueoTfUL Stobv. A man up in
New Hampshire went out gunning one
day this spring foe saw a flock of pigeons
sitting on a limb of an old pine, so he
dropped a ball into his gun and fired.
The ball split (lie limb, which closed up
and caught the toes of all the birds in it.
He saw that he had got them all. So he
fastened two balls together and fired; cut
tlie limb ofl", which fell into tho river ; he
then wadod in and brought it hnr. On
counting them there were three hundred
pigeons, and in his boots wero two bar.

Wo remember of hearing slory of a
fellow who roused n venerable) doctor
about 12 o'clock ono winter's night, and
on coming in tlie door coolly inquired :
'Have you lost a knife, Mr. HrownT
'No,' growled the victim.
'Well, never mind,' snid the wag, 'I
thought I'd just call and inquire, for 1
found ono yesterday.'
We thought that ruiher ce., but the
following story of Neil Mi Kiunon, a Now
York wag, surpasses in impudence any
thing within recollection. Head and judge
for yourself, gentle reader.
When the cifbrntcd "Copenhagen
Jackson" wns llrilish Minister in this
country, ho resided in New York, and
occupied a house in Uroudway. Neil,
ono night, at a late hour, in company with
a bevy of rough riders, while passing tho
house, noticed it was brilliantly illumina
ted, and that several carriages wero wait
ing at the door.
'Holloa!' said our wag, 'what's going
on at Jackson's ?'
One of the company remarked thnt
Jackson had a pnrty that evening.
'What !' exclaimed Neil, 'Jackson have
a party, and 1 not invited ? I must sec to
that.'
So stepping tip to the door he gave a
ring which soon brought the servant to
tho door.
'I want to see the British Minister,'
said Neil.
'You must call soino other time,' said
the servant, 'for ho is now engaged at a
game of whist, and must not be disturbed.
'Don't talk to me that way,' said Mc
Kinnon, 'but go directly and tell tho Brit
ish Minister that I must sec him inline
d lately on special business.'
The servant obeyed, and delivered hii
.1
messairo in so impressive a style as to
bi in: Mr. Jackson to tlie door forthwith.
'Well,' said Mr. Jackson, 'what can bo
your business with me thin time of night
which is so very urgent?'
. 'Are you Mr. Jackson ?' asked Neil.
'Yes, sir, I am Mr. Jackson.'
'The BrrtiBh-SIhiistcr V
'Yes, sir.' .
'You have a party here to-night, 1 cr
ceivc, Mr. Jackson?'
Yes, sir, I have a party.'
A largo party, I presume ?'
Yes, sir, a large party.'
Flaying cards, I understand ?'
'Yes, sir, playing cards.'
'O, well,' said Neil, 'as I was passing,
I merely called to inquire what t trumpt '
A California Joke.
A California paper tells the following
of Lieutenant Derby," John Phrrnix, the
humorist :
One evening at the theatre, rhcuiix ob
served a man sett'g three scats in front,
whom he thought he knew; ho then re
quested the person sitting uext to him "to
punch the other individual with his cane."
Tlie polite stranger did so, and the dis
turlied person turning his head a little,
he discovered his mistake that he was
not the person he took him for. Fixing
his attention steadfastly on the play, and
affect ins unconsciousness of the whole af
fair, he left tlie man with the cane to set
tie with tho other for tho disturbance, who
being wholly without an excuse, there
was, of course, a ludicrous and embar
rassing scene during all of which Phoe
nix was profoundly interested in tlie play
At last the man with the cane asked
rather indignantly, 'Didn't you tell me to
punch that person viih my stick Y
Yes.'
'And what did you want?'
'I wanted to see whether you was fool
enough to punch him or not.'
A provincial paper stales that a gentle
man in Devonshire lias invented what he
calls a snuil" pistol ; it has two barrel, and
being applied to the nose, and touching a
' spring underneath with the forefinger, both
' nostrils are instantly filled, and a sufficient
quantity di ivcu up tho head to last the
whole day-

IUihcr, sir; but not quite so crooked
as n tree I once know. It waa the tallest
butternut I ever rniw. Standing close to.
ono day in a thunder storm, I taw a
squirrel on one of its topmost branches.
The lightning struck tho same branch
nlxuit three feet above him and tho squir
rel startod. The lightning had to follow :
the grain, of course, and the squirrel went
strait down. So crooked was that trco,
sir, that tho squirrel by my watch, got to
the bottom precisely three minutes before
the lightning." ' :
That's a lio !" exclaimed a bystander..
A lio ! truo as any story ever was.

made into rails for a hog pasture. The
hogs crawled through twenty limes a day
ami so crooked were them rails that every

At the close of a rainy day, he was
