Looitxo Down a Dandy. "Itvnadi
ning at a hotel in Philadelphia," writes i
gentleman of Knoxville, Tennessee, "and
Mtting nearly opposite Gidean Henderson
of this city, a, well known merchant, who
was on his semi-annuul tour to the North
to buy goods. Ho had two young ladies
from this State under his charge, and one
of them was sitting on earn Mile of Mr
Henderson at table. Directly in front of
him sat a dandy, who, having finished his
soup, raised his eye glass and stared stead
ily, first at one and then nt the other of
the ladies. Mr. II. seized a heavy glass
tumbler, and I thought was about to spot
the fellow's profile by hurling it at his
head; but instead of that, ho brought it to
his own eye and looked deliberately
through the bottom of it at the top of the
scamp in front of him. The attention of
tho company was fixed upon the fellow; a
general giggle began and grow, till he was
compelled to quit tho tulle and the room,
in tho midst of tho gecrs of the guests."
Sore Jokes. The supniintendent of
the Mrrietta nnd Ciiu'inmtti llailroad dis
eharged iho conductor belonging to that
road. The conductor was asked why he
was discharged.
"Well," said he, "I was discharged for
giving a free puss."
"What innda you such a fool as to give
a free pass?'
"Well! you see!'' replied the conductor,
"I got tired riding alone, and gave a friend
of mine a free pass to eel turn to come
ulong for company."
A collision occurred on one of the roads
terminating in the city some lime ago.
The road in question is celebrated for cur
vatures. The engineer was thought to be
to blame, and accordingly he was taken to
tafck by the superintendent.
"Did you not see tho light?" said the su
perintendent. "Yes," replied the engineer, '! saw the
light, but liought U uhis the other tnd of

Send in your orders soon, as we expect our
list for 1857 will reach 100,000 copies. The
best plan of subscribing Is to send your money
direct to th publisher. Those who send
large amounts had better send drafts, but
notes will answer IX draits cannot be pro
cured. We think w can show how much cheaper
it Is to take the Lady's Book at Three Uol
larsthan any other magazine at Two Dollars,
We will take a late number of both. The
Two Dollar Magazine contained 36 article,
the Lady's Book Wi. '
The Two Dollar Magazine contained 32 en
pravincs. th Ladv's Book 5A.
The Two Dollar Magazine contained 64 pa
ges, the Lady's Book 100.
Twenty-four more engravings, twenty aix
more articles, ana tnirty-six more page,
nearly double th ouantitv. The lowest club
pric of the Two Dollar Magazine is $1,23 ,
lowest club price of Lady's Book $1,67, only
cents oinerence in uie price, wuicn is tnree
and a halt cent on each number, and for that
sum (three and a half cents), you receive
twenty-six more articles, twenty-four more
engraving, and thirty-six more pages month
ly certainly a very cheap three and a half
cent' worth. This view of th ease has
probably never before been presented, hut it is
a true statement, wnicn any lady can con'
viace herself of br comparing the two maga
sines.
