ECCENTRIC HOSPITALITY.


During the late American war a soldier
who had been wounded and honorably
discharged, (but perhaps not paid) being
destitute, knocked at the door of an Irish
farmer, when the following dialogue ensu-
ed:
Patrick. And who are you now7
Soldier. My name is John Wilson.
Pat. And where are you going from,
John Wilson.
Soldier. From the American army at
Erie, Sir.
Pat. And what do you want here!
Soldier. / want shelter to night, will
you permit me to spread my blanket on
your floor and sleep to night!
Pat. D--l take ifI do. John Wilson
that's fiat.
Soldier. On the kitchen floor, Sirl
Pat. Not /, by the Hill O. Howth--

Soldier. In your stable then?
Pat. will not do that eithe1-that's
fiat.
Soldier. ! am dying with hunger; give
me but bone and crust, ask nc more
Pat. l will not-that's fiat.
Soldier. Give me some water to quench
my thirst, beg ofyou.
Pat. Beg and be hanged, I'll do no such
thing-that's fiat.
Soldier. Sir, l have been fighting to Sc
cure the blessings you enjoy; have con-
tributed to the glory and welfare of the
country which has so Hospitality received
you, and can you SO inhospitably reject me
from your house!
Pat. Reject you! Who talked word
about rejectingyou! May be am not the
scurvy spalpeen you take me to be, John
Wilson. You asked me to let you lie on
my floor, my kitchen floor, or in my sta
BILE; now, by the powers, do you think I'd
let perfect stranger do that when have
half dozen soft feather beds all empty?-
No, by the Hill o'Howth, John-that's
fiat. In the second place you were dying
with hunger, and wanted bone and crust
to eat. Now, honey, do you think I'd
feed hungry man with bones and crust,
when my yard is full offat pullets and pigs!
No, by the powers, not I---thats fiat. In
the third place, you asked me for some
simple water to quench your thirst
Now, as my water is none of the best, /
never give it to poor traveller without
mixing it with plenty of wine, brandy,
whiskey or something else wholesome or
cooling. Come into the ouse, my honey;
you shall have the best supper and break
fast that my farm can supply, which thank
the Lord, is none of the worst; you shall
drink as much water as you please, provi-
ded you mix it with plenty of wine or spir-
its, and provided you preferit. Come in
my hearty, come in, and feel yourself at
home. 1t shall never be said that Patrick
O'Flaherty treated man scurvily who has

gave him protection--that's hatl

sometimes vomiting are propagated by sym
pathy, and some people Of delicate fibres at
the presence of spectacle Of misery, have
felt pain in the same parts of their own
bodies that were diseased or mangled in
the other" So says Darwin, the man
who prophecied the era Of steamboat and
rail roads.
The case is related in which lady be-
came gibbous on gazing intensely at a
humbasked man, and the like on which a
student caught the smallpox from turning
over the leaves of book which treated Of it,
are scarcely ideal. Who has not known
instances where female of delicate frame
has been thown into convulsion on witness
ing the agonies Of person suffering under
some severe bodily injury? Where the
spectacle ofa woman in Mysteries has pro-
duced corresponding affection in one that
merely looked on? Persons faint at wit
Messing the operation Of blooding in anoth-
er, as if the blood were drawing from their
own veins. The sight of one on the point
of falling from height, receiving wound,
or in danger of being crushed by vehicle,
will draw an exclamation from every breast
Even wit and silence are contagious. Tears
certainly are. No one can behold the eyes
ofa person wet with tears, without finding
his own filling irresistibly with the SYM
pathetic dew. We have observed this
frequently in hall where something par
tlcularly moveing was uttered by the orator.
Some apparently insensible to the eloquence
or the speaker, on turning thir looks towards
their neighbors, would instantly become
affected with the prevailing laziness and
obscurity of vision, until by propagation it
became universal. There is no infection
less to be Stunned than this. 1t is spark
of childhood left in the human breast,
which evinces our adoption to higher and
purer state of fexistance.
Vomiting sympathetically affects the sto-
machs of the beholders, and each one by
imperceptble degrees finds his ribs to be
drawn in asif even devils were engaged in
pulling atthe diaphram.- Fear is obviously
infectious, and when a single individual in
regiment of an army becomes seized with a
the inclination in the whole corps to make
the best use of thei legs in a aretroglate direc-
ton is irresistibly overcoming; arms and
ammunition are unanimously Jumped, and
each one takes to his tendo achitltS, as if
its well trained vigour was his only reli-
ance.

p Ready Wit.-As this is the season when
toasts, 'as plenty as blackberries,' we are
reminded of a story, very well told by a
military friend of ours. During the last
war with England, young officer belong
ing to the Northern army was sent with a
flag Of truce to the nearest British post,
and while there was invited to dine with
the officers Of the Regiment. After the
wine had circulated freely, young British
officer requested permission to propose a
toast, which the Colonel granted, and forth
with gave
"The President of the United States,
dead or alive"
The Company drank their wine in si-
lence, which was broken by the Ameri-
cans request to return the compliment,
when he offered
"The Prince Regent, drunk or sober!"
The British cockerel was inclined to
quarrel but received severe reproof from
his Colonel for having offered the first toast,
and the young American was treated with
politeness during his visit.-Bruns,Oick
