QUALIFICATIONS OF A GENTLEMAN.—CARTWRIGHT
V. DE SOLOME.—This was a case in the Bloomsbury
County Court. The plaintiff, a livery-stable-keeper, sued
the defendant for the sum of £4 95., being the amount
due, as alleged, for the hire of riding-horses. Mr. G. E
Williams, solicitor, 60, Upper Norton-street. said that
he attended for the defendant, who admitted the debt,
and proposed paying the same, with expenses, in a month.
A stableman, who represented the plaintiff, refused such
terms. Judge : Why ?—Stableman : Vy ? Cos he's a
gentleman. (Laughter.)—Judge: How do you know
that ?—Stableman : Vy to my knowledge he's gist guv
an order for lots of pounds of cigars and two pairs of kid
gloves. (Laughter.)—Judge: And you think that quali-
fies a gentleman ?—Stableman : I should say so. my
Lord (laughter) ; don't you? (Increased laughter.)—
Judge: quite different; however, I will make the order
as you wish.—Stableman : Then let's have it directly.
(Laughter.)—Order for immediate payment.
WESLEYAN ITINERANCY.—Dr. Dixon, on parting with
his friends in the Birmingham west circuit, gave utterance
to the following sentiments :—" I cannot receive all you
say about my preaching. I have done my best, but were
I to stay longer with you I do not hesitate to say I could
preach better. I will tell you why ; there is an originality
about every man (originality is a great word in my case),
a peculiarity rather, which takes you some time to get
habituated to; there's a mode of expression—a habit of
thought--which cannot be entered into all at once. Be-
sides, I know your characters, your habits, your wants;
and I am sure I could suit my remarks to your cases bet
ter than in times past. But my three years are expired,
and our unbending itinerancy requires me to leave. I
could gladly have nmained in my present circuit for life.
My study is so roomy, and so sunny, and so full of glad-
some light, that I could there have fulfilled your requests
and have written a volume of sermons. I say, I wish I
could have remained here ; for, the longer I live, the more
objectionable does itinerancy become to me. I have long
hated it ; I hate it the more the longer I live; and I shall
hate it till the day of my death."

COCKLE'S PILLS.—Live Well and Be Wea—
There is a difference betwixt living "well" and thing
"fast," though the terms are generally confounded. Now the
truth is, that in this " go-a-head " age people live a grew deal
too " fast ;" and, therefore, we have more "aches and pains,"
more flatulence, irritability. nervousne spondency, &c.,

KEATING'S COUGH

LOZENGES

During a period of more than 40 years this valuable medicine

won its way to pre-eminence, until it is now universally ac-
knowledged to be the most effectual, safe, and speery remedy
ever offered to the world for that large class of disease which
affects the Pulmonary Ortrans.
