: he America Monthly Says:-"Ehere
is no authentic account of the appear
ance of this celebrated parsonage in q
ny part of America, though we have
the testimony Of one witness to the fact
That he actually crossed the Atlantic.
About forty years ago, German emf
grant assured clergyman in Pennsyl-
vania that the veritable Wander Jew,
Ia propria persona, had come to the u
nited States in the same vessel in which
himself had voyaged to this country.
He described him as middle-sized
man, melancholy, taciturn, and remark
ably reservetis pacing thesdeck contin-
ually during the voyage, and being
withal very abstemious in meat and
drink. When askedNto give a more
minute description ofNthe peripatetic
Hebrews person, he sah-she looked
for all the world precisely like the lit
tie deaf shoeD' aker'-an industrious
FOUNDER and compounder Of leather,
then resident in the town in which this
important communication was made.
AS nothing further was heard of the
pedestrian in the white settlements
and he has not since re-appearcd in Eu-
rope or Asia, it is probable that he inn
mediately wended his way towards the
Rocky Mountains, to enjoy his favor
ite system of locomotion among the
wandering tribes in the far west"
A CAuT1oN.-If man who lacks
principle crosses your path, and even
annoys you in some degree, get past
him if possible without appearing to
notice his impertinence. You have no
thing to gain by difference with such
an individual, and will most certainly
come out Of the contest soledwith the
impurities hehas belched forth from his
corrupt heart; while he will have ac-
CURED some honor in being found in
your company.

A PHILOSOPHERS SKULL.-A ia
nous craniologist, strolling through
st. Bury's churchyard the other day,
perceived the grave digger tossing up
the earth, amongst which were two or
three skulls. The craniologist took up
one, and after considering it a little
time, said, ssAh! this was the skull Of
a philosopher" every like" said
the grave digger, "for l see it is some-
