He: WHY DOESN'T THAT ENGLISH GIRL COME ON DECK, AND BE WOOED BY THE BREEZES, TOO?

She: HER MOTHER WON'T LET HER. SHE HEARD THE CAPTAIN SAY THIS WAS A trade WIND.

ANSWER TO CORRESPONDENTS.

DEMOCRAT: No. Mr. Percival's book, "Adventures Among the Hill Tribes,"

has nothing to do with the present political situation in New York State. TWENTY GIRLS, PHILADELPHIA: We thank you for your appreciation of our efforts in behalf of the horse. Your affection for LIFE is reciprocated twenty-fold. MEPHISTOPHELES: No. We have recovered from the grip. See you later. AMBITIOUS: Address him care of his publishers. He has reduced the number from four hundred to one hundred and fifty. He will make his rates known on application.

R. B. H.: Of course you can't help your asininity. The fact that you are closely related to the Administration doesn't justify your making it conspicuous, though.

"Now, see here, porter," said he briskly, "I want you to put me oft at Syracuse. You know we get in there about six o'clock in the morning, and I may oversleep myself. But it is important that I should get out. Here's a $5 gold piece. Now I may wake up hard, for I have been dining to-night and will probably feel rocky. Don't mind if I kick. Pay no attention if I'm ugly. I want you to put me off at Syracuse."

"Yes, sah," answered the sturdy Nubian, ramming the bright coin into his trousers pocket. "It shall be did, sah!"

The next morning the coin-giver was awakened by a stentorian voice calling: "Rochester! Thirty minutes for refreshments!"

"Rochester!" he exclaimed, sitting up. "Where is that coon ?"

Hastily slipping on his trousers, he went in search of the object of his wrath and found him in the porter's closet huddled up with his head in a bandage, his clothes torn, and his arm in a sling.

"Well," says the drummer, "you are a sight. Been in an accident? Why didn't you put me off at Syracuse?"

"Wha-at!" ejaculated the porter, jumping to his feet, as his eyes bulged from his head. "Was you de gemman what guf ter me a five dollah gold piece?"

"Of course I was, you idiot!"

"Well, den, befoah de Lawd, who was dat gemman I put off at Syracuse!"-Clothier and Furnisher.

HORACE GREELEY, in his "Recollections of a Busy Life," tells the following story:

"A gushing youth once wrote to this effect:

"Dear Sir-Among your literary treasures you have doubtless preserved several autographs of our country's late lamented poet, Edgar Allan Poe. If so, and you can spare one, please enclose it to me, and receive the thanks of yours truly,

"I promptly responded as follows:

"Dear Sir,-Among my literary treasures there happens to be exactly one autograph of our country's late lamented poet, Edgar Allan Poe. It is a note of hand for fifty dollars, with my endorsement across the back. It cost me exactly fifty dollars seventy-five cents, including protest, and you may have it for half that amount.-Yours respectfully, 'HORACE GREELEY.' That autograph, I regret to say, remains in my hands, and it is still for sale at the original price."
