CSrk BOot IA great inventor (thai is, ih his own estimatiOnl published to the world that he had solved the important pro- blem Of walking safely upon the water, and he invited the crowd to witness his first essay. He steped boldly upon the wave, equiped in pair of bulky cork boots but it soon appeared that he had not pom dered sufficiently on the subjects ofthe cen- ire of gravity and of flotation, for in the next instant all that was to be seen of him was pair of legs sticking out of the wlter. He was picked up by,help at hand, and his genius cooled and schonled by the event he was conducted home. Some soldiers once finding a few corks jackets among old military stores determined to try them i; but mistaking the shoulder straps for low CT fastnings, they put them on as drawers, and on their plunging in, with the hope ot being able to sit pleasantly on the water, their heavy heads went down, and they were nearly drowned

TrOv beuts Flsna fdRs-EVery body who has once heard Oi Penn Yan, will always re- member it, from the singulaTity Of Us name, which was derived from the first syilabies Of the distinguishing appellatiOns of iis original sett!ePs-Pennsylvanian and Yankees. But as if this were not sufficient to establish its ce- lebrity, the inhabitants of that noted place once voted the devil out of its precincts, and on another occasion one of its juries decided that "a man was not an habitual drOnkard. unless he was drunk more than half the time One would think that decision Of this kind, might, at least in the present refined genera ton, stand unrivailed for it's eccentricity, or rather for its deviation from the dictates of common sense. But verdict which was lately rendered in this city upon the subject cOmpels even Penn Van to yield the palm of superiority for it's jury decisions, and forever hereafter to hold its peace concerning hahltual drunkards. It was proved on the trial of the case referred to in this city, that the alledged irunkard would become intoxicated whenev- CT he had the means ofprocurinS ardent spir- it's of any kind; that in fact he Was drunk more than half the time,, and in consequence thereof was incapacitated from managing the affairs of hls family. The jury retired, and after few moments delberatiOn. returned with verdict, "tkat man scas not Gn ka6it- snQl drssnkGrd unless ae ioQs drunk aN the time"
