MISCELLANEOUS ARTICLES.

A certain Roman coblcr had taught a
parrot to salute the emperor as he went
along the street with these words
"Hail Cesar !"--which the Emperor
hearing, he gave him royal price for his
parrot. The poor man. oyerloyed AT his
good luck, got another parrot, and at
tempted to teach her in the same man.
ner but having taken much Intellectual
pains, he used to fret and say, 4" have
lost my labor" Yet, a, length, by dai-
ly repeating these words, the parrot had
learned both sentences; and the next
time the Emperor came by, it said,
"H,il Cesar!' To which the F.mpe-
ror replied, 81 have enough of such fiat
terers at homc." The parrot having
her lesson perfect, rejoined, 81 have
lost my labor!,' which the emperor hear
ing, and pleased with the novelty, he
bought tins also, and settled generous
pension OH the man during life.
A ponpous pretender to the healing
urt. boasting of his great skill and inge-
.nuity in learning men to see without
eyes and walk without legs, undertook
to tell his feats in civilizing a very know
ing gander he had. "rhis gauder,"
saws he, 81 have learnt to come and
meet me when come home, and I'M
derstand what say as well as one OF my
children. and YOU can't think how glad
he is to see me-" s.Ss
A brother Of the profession, who had
for some time kept silence, at length OBJ
served. "Your gander must be yer,
knowing one. and from his peculia'
) bndness for your society. ! presume he
always took you to be a great goose"
