French Joke.

A director of a journal American is struck of apoplexy somes instants before his paper goes to come out. His family talks to summon a medicine to make him live two hours or more. The moribund, with calm: “Two honr3 or more! It wonld be Hie journals of evening that wottld have the freshness of the news. Never I” And he is died himself, heroically.
