Would it not be well to t Ir. Elder, who publishes something in Chicago, put him ina trunk, and ship him to St. Louis, marking the trunk “John Smith—To be called for”? If there isn’t a trunk long enough to accommo- date » sure he would be willing to part with his head long enough to get there, or rather to stay there, since it has served him thus far merely to damage the wide-spread reputation he has unfortunately attained. THOSE BELLIGERENT CANUCKS. The cartoonists of New York are green with envy of Mr. Grip’s list of available character face nd would almost anything for a phiz like John A's. Ben Butler isthe only good subject they have left—and_he is no cit- cumstance to our ‘old man."—Toronto Grip. That is foolishness. The best society of Canada is conspicuous for nothing so much as character faces freely contributed to that Bot- ny bay by the stat Mother Mardlebaum has more character in her countenance than Sir John ever thought of having, though per- haps it is not of as good quality; and there are scores of states forgers, defaulters,grass widows and widowers, &c., that fairly kicked them- selves out of the country to reach the land and |the society that better please them. Nothanks, little brother; but don't forget your gratitude. SIZING UP SOME HAPPINESS. The mercury in Canajoharie. N.¥., went down twenty degrees below zero last week. When the thermometer ven- tures to size up a town with a name like that there is no tell- ing what it is capable of doing in civilized settlements. Franeisen Examiner. The fact is, the mercury did not drop at Can joharie until after the election at Albany of Sen. ator Hiscock.—Albany Argus. The habit that journalistic scientists have of mixing their politics with atmospheric phe. nomena is rapidly reducing the mercury of their so-called influence. The truth is that at the time mentioned there prevailed in Canaj harie a vast and unprecedented flower-garde embracing all the plants of the tropics and a few from the celestial regions, the same sur. mounted by an azure sky and swept by sum- mer winds, beyond the which was the music of harps tickled by ible fingers and wed- ded to voices gentler than dreams and sweeter than the essence of honey strained through floating clouds spun from the fingers of the everlasting angels. Go up to Canajol you man of Albany, and get your ha with the energetic complacency that there pre- vails. San rie, SOME ROMANTIC DIPLOMACY. There is a pretty romance of real life, and it is so English, not to say so American, you know. A rich young heiress of this city mar- ries a worthy young lawyer, F. W. Stephens by name. In due season there arrives here the Marquis de Talleyrand, rich in money, dimin- utive in person, and a descendant of the n who very properly remarked that words w invented for the concealment of finest definition of diplomacy that 1 made. Mrs, Stephens dutifully bore her hus band two children, and then took them and eloped with the marquis. Here comes the plot. The viously married a mere Boston acquainted with the country attractions. Stung by his disappointment, he took the best method of dimming her spect: cles with tears. Mrs. Stephens not on rquis had pre- in everything but the slight matter of moralit and that doesn’t count in France. Ther quis was devoted to the latter and gave her much of his attention. and in due season the other gaveup in despair. There was a divore There were no broken hearts, of ccurse, for tl intellect of the marquis and that of the Bosto- nian permit of no such foolishness as that ‘And now comes the startling conclusion. ‘The marquis has married his mistress, and the marriage bell gives out no uncertain sound. All is well, and there shall be nothing but peace and prosperity among the Talleyrands forevermore. And as to Mr. Stephens? As to the children of that gentleman? Prithee, dear sir, no needless interrogatories. It is a tri- umph of New York over Boston, and the ro- mance has come to that legitimate end.
