They have a town in Van Buren County, Iowa, named Semicolonville. Good Point, -1 ; v i J A The Indians out West are collecting the poll tax they take it out in hair. In Ohio a man was arrested for breaking into ajaro bank. Virtuous Ohio! ji VTjlEX "witsT Noah ? in L America? When he was on the Ark-and-eaw. A young lady recently called at a book store in fit. , Ju&cyh, tor a copy of ilarper's Bazoo. Why was Eve the first ritualist convert? Because she began by being Eve-angelical and ended by adopting vestments. An honest Dutchman on being asked how often he shaved, replied, "Dree dimes a week every tay put Soontey; den I shale every tay!' A charity scholar under examination in the l'tsalais, being asked, "'What id the pestilence that walketh in darkness?" replied, " Please sir, bed bugs." I A COOL specimen of humanity stepped into a printing office out West to beg a paper, " Because," said he, "we like to read newspapers very much, but our neighbors are too stingy to take one." "Mr. Jones, you said you were connected with the fine arts; do you mean that you are a sculptor?" " No, sir; I don't sculp myself, 'but I furnish the stone to the nxirx that dues." A PERT little girl " boasted to-" One of her little friends that her father kept a carriage. "Ah, but," was the triumphaixt reply, " my father drives an omnibus. ; A MAN, who had filed a petition for divorce, was informed by his counsel that his wife had filed a " cross-petition," as lawyers call it. " A cross petition !" exclaimed the husband, " that'a just like her. She never did a good-natured thing in her life." Mrs. Jones, a farmer's wife in Connecticut, says: "Ib'leve I've got the tenderest hearted boys in the world. I can't tell one of 'em to fetch a pail of water, but what he'll hurst out cryin'." . An old bachelor, who has become melancholy and poetical, wrote some verses for tha village paper, in which he expressed the hope that the time would soon, come when be should ,r rest calmly within a tsntbud. With, a weeping willow by my side." but to his inexplicable horror it came out in print: , 1 ? 1 " When I 'shall rest calmly within a shawl, With h weeping widow by my side." A gentleman who had visited his friend lor the first time in a very solitary and dreary situation, observed to him,' " My dear Tom, you may have your reasons for living here, but," added he, looking with great surprise at, the jookery,, " what, can induce these poor birds to stay here, too?" J, ... A carpenter who was always prognosticating evil to himself, was one day upon the roof of a five-story building, upon which rain had fallen. The roof being slippery,, he lost -his footing, and as he was descending towards the eaves, he exclaimed, " Just as I told you!" Catching, however, in an iron spout, be kicked off his shoes and regained a place of safety, when he thus delivered himself: "1 know'd it; there's a pair of shoes gone!": - --r i ' t An xVrkansas paper says that a citizen of that State, eighty-three years of age, lately married a blooming widow of thirty-five; aud that another Arkansan, ninety-eight years old, less fortunate than his younger fellowcitizen, on the same day fell down stairs and broke his neck. The editor of a magazine having, through some inadvertance, inserted the same article , in two successive numbers of. the periodical, was reproached for carelessness. ' You are quite in error; the reason for the second insertion was this: my subscribers approved the article so highly, that it wa? encored." A gentleman, one evening, -was seated near a lovely woman, when the company ' around ' were proposing conundrums to each other. Turning to his companion, he said: . ' " Why is a lady unlike a mirror? " She gave it up. r- ; .1 . '-' j ?! " Because." said the rude fellow, "a mirror reflects "without speaking; a lady speaks without reflecting." " Very good " she " said, Nowlinswer me. Why is a man unlike a mirror f ....... . ' I cannot-teli you " "Because the. mirror is polished and the man is not." " Wno's there?" said Robinson, one cold winter , night, disturbed in his repoe by some one knocking at the street door: " A friend," was the anbwer. "What da you iwant?" "Want to stay all night. "Queer taste, ain't it?rBut : staythere, by all means," was the benevolent reply. A lady who had two children sick with measler wrote to a friend for the b-st remedy. The friend 'hid just received a note from another lady, inquiring the; way to pickle cucumbers. In the confusion the lady who bad inquired about the pick les received the remedy for the measles, and the anxious mother of the sick children' with horror read the following: "Scald them three or four times in hot vinecar and snrinkle them with colt

in a very lew days they will be cured."

"The eon of shoemaker, holding a ! commission in a volunteer corps, took occasion, rather arrogantly, to reproach one of the privates, while at exercise, with the awkardness of his walk. " It is no wonder," replied the other, as the last pair of shoes your father made tue pinch so that I find it difficult to walk at ali." A MAN who had undertaken editorship without previous training, had to describe the unceremonious burial of a woman, and wrote: ',SJie w;i buried like a dog with her elothes' on." Seeing his mistake, he corrected it thus: She was buried with her clothes on like a dog." The third time, exasperated with the previous blunders, he bad it thus: "Like a dog with her clothes on she was buried." ' He then gave it up. When " Orator" Hunt (who was a blacking manufacturer) was in Parliament, the late Sir liobert Pel so far forgot himself as to taunt him with this fact, whereupon Hunt sarcastically replied : " The truth is, the honorable member is the first gentleman in his family, and I am the first tradesman in mine. When Sir Elijah Impey, the Indian judge, was on his passage home, as he was one day walking the deck, it having blown pretty hard the preceding day, a shark was playing by the side of the ship. Having never seen such an object before, he called to one of the sailors to tell him what it was. " Why," replied the tar, I don't know what name they know them by ashore, but we call them sea-lawyers." One gains from outside sources a great deal of information respecting the manners and customs of the Metropolis. - A correspondent of a Pittsburg paper says that it is becominff the " thing " at weddings in New York, for. all the gentlemen present to kiss the bride, and for all the ladies to kiis the groom. . A New York letter says the ladieS are all ordering Celadon dresses and coral jewelry. Celadon is a dull seagreen a mixture of pea green and orange something like the tint of a brown kitten's eye in a coal cellar. It is a pretty color for those who like it, and, as Miss McFlitnsey, of Madison Square, affects it, it must, perforce, become popular. , An editor wrote a leading article on the fair sex, in the course of which he said:, "Girls of seventeen and eighteen are fond of beaus." When the paper was issued he was rather shocked to discover that an unfortunate error had made him say, " Girls of seventeen and eighteen are fond of beans!" j . A Jerseyman was very sick, and was : not expected to recover. His friends got around his bed, and one of them sajs: " John, do you feel willing to die?" John made an effort to give his views on the subject, and answered with feeb'e voice, I think I'd rather stay where I am better acquainted." ! A VERY ta'kative little girl used often to annoy her mother by making remarks about the visitors that came to the house. On one occasion a gentleman was expected whose nose had been accidentally flattened nearly to his face. The mother cautioned the child to say nothing about this feature. Imagine her consternation when the little one silently exclaimed: " Ma, you told me not to say anything about Mr. Smith's nose. Why, he hasn't got any!" "MEMPHIS CARDS.7

These Ascent have agreed to keep a foil assortment omy pens, and to sell them at my published prieea.
