Queer Things in This World.

The world D chock full of incongruities. There is, for instance, the big bearded man with a voice like the Bull of Bashan. He somes before the audience and sings “I Fear No Foe” in bravura style, and in a way that drop* bits of plaster from the ceding. And in two hours thereafter that man will be going up stairs in his stocking fort lest he wake a 110-pound wife. And next morning he gets up meekly and kindles three fires.— Pittsburgh lelc-graph-Chronicle. In the Isle of Wight a snider was observed dragging two or three leaves to the water. It fastened them together with a web, then launched the raft, and sailed away. Italarted off a ter insects upon the water, and returned to the raft to devour them.
