Irish Bulls.

Mr. D., an Irish gentleman, was invited to dinner lately, by a well-kuown Scotch resident, at whose generous table he met quite a number of the host’s countrymen. The conversation turned on Irish bulls, of which one and another repeated several, until the whole company was in a roar of laugher. Our Irish friend kept quiet until his patience was exhausted. Then he blurted out: li Stay, Mr. C., an’ do ye know what I think?” ‘‘Why, indeed, what do you think, Mr. D.?” ‘‘Shure, sir, and do ye know that I think, indacle, that not more than onehalf these lies that they tell about the Irish are true." This maybe said to have “ brought down” the table.
