Punching Ftrc.-It il surprising tina,
among the vast variety Of discoveries which
PhrenoIogtsts have made on The territory
OF the human skull, they have not found the
organ OF ighitlyeness. They may depend
upon 1t, that such an organ is there, and
We shall not be amazed If We ourselves hit
upon It some Of these days, IN our eypiora
tons through the boundess field Of our own.
or moro modestIy speaking, of some Of our
friends lntellects, and thereby dlsappolnt
every body and lmmorlalize ourselves after
all According 10 our phlIosopy, felicity
IN making fires depends upon organization
and, therefore a man must be born with
a genius for 1t, or remain n numskull SO
tar as lts maniestlon is concerned. ANY
blnnderer can put good fire out, but It
takes genlous to build up ono.
Ladies have been remarkable. from time
out OF mind, for the dexieri,y which they
often manifest in punching fires. Did YOU
ever see lady blushing with cold, enter
the room without marching straight up to
the bre place, picking up the tongs and
banging away at the lorc.stlck ? If YOU
have seen such thing you have seen a &c.
male prodigy. The desire Of torturng
their lovers IS not more natural to the dear
SEX than IS the propensity 10 punch the
ore. Sometimes the qualification of this in.
nocent propensity is attended with sad dis.
comforts. For instance-whon you have
by Tue a'd OF constructvencss, succeeded in
building up first rate frame work for the
flames TO wreath themselves about. and are
just congraIulatlng yourself on your archi.
