IRISH METHOD OF DESPATCHING A LETTER,
—A son of Hibernia, a tar just landed at Liverpool, and
who paid a visit to our ancicnt.city on Friday last, was no-
ticed strolling about the Post-office door on that evening.
Curiosity at last prompted an individual to ask him his busi-
ness ; and, in answer to a question put to him, Pat re,
plied, " I'm jist waiting to see whether my letter goes off,
that I've put into the post." He was told that if he bad
directed his letter, and put it into the box, it was- certain of
reaching its destination. One word in the reply seemed
quite to astound the Irish tar, and he, hastily turning round
to the individual, said, " Directed it! man, what do yotl
mane by that ?" Being told it was the writing the name
and residence of the person to whom it was sent on the out'
side the letter—he lugged up his " inexpressibles," and ev
claimed, " Sure, and that self-same thing I Aote in 00
inside of it, but never a word on the outside, though I in-
tended it to go to Miss Biddy O'Connor, athe Sera
Little Stars, in Carlton-street, Dublin." After the expla-
tion of the sailor's bull, and enjoying a hearty laugh at hi§
expense, the individual who conversed with him, accompa-
nied him into the Post-office ; the billet-doux was found 05
he had described, and afterwards directed to his dear Biddy
in the capital of the Green Isle.—Chester Chronicle.
