LIFE SEISSOR) AT NVLLy DR. WATTS IMPROVED. OW doth the little busy fly Improve each shining hour, And when we are drowsy in the morning, and the little torment crawls over our neck and buzzes around our left car, and flies glibly away every time we slap, and dodges around the room a while, and then settles down again oa our nose, just as we are getting back to sleep, and starts in to investigate our most ticklish nostril, oh | wouldn't we knock that pestiferous little insect sky-high If we only had the power !—Somervitle Journal. THERE are circumstances under which the most truthful and credit- able statements may be both misleading and Pabperstic During a 361 certain voyage of a Down East vessel, the mate, who usually kept the log, became intoxicated one day, and was unable to attend to his duty. As the man very rarely committed the offense, the captain excused him, and attended to the log himself, concluding with this: “The mate has been drunk all day.” Next day the mate was on deck and resumed his duties, Looking at the log, he discovered the entry the captain had made and ventured to remonstrate with his superior. “What was the need, sir,” he asked, “of putting that down on the log?" “Wasn't it true 2” asked the captain. “Yes, sir; but it doesn’t seem necessary to enter it on the log.” ‘* Well,” said the captain, ‘* since it was true, it had better stand —it had better'stand.” The next day the captain had occasion to look at the log, and at the end of the entry which the mate had made he found this item: ** The captain has been sober all day.” The captain summoned the mate, and thundered : “What do you mean by putting down that entry? What was the need, I say? Am I not sober every day ?” “Yes, sir; but wasn’t it true?" “Why, of course, it was true!" “Well, then, sir,” said the mate, “since it was true, I think it had better stand—it had better stand.” The mate then took his departure hastily, dodging the marlinspike as he went.—Argonaut, Youno Gosiix: Mr. Roks, I wish—er—that is, I desire—er—the hand of your daughter.” Roxs: What's the matter with the rest of her.—£xx.
