"John Kilburn, person well known
on the turf, as list seller, &C., was in
a town in Bedfordshire, and as a turf
phrase, tquite broken down." 1t was
during harvest, and the week before
Richmond races, yorkshire, whittier
he was travelling, and near which
place he was born: to arrive their in
time he hit upon the following expedi-
elt:-He applied to an acquaintance
of his, blacksmith, to stamp on pad
lock the words sRichmond gaol, with
which, and chain fixed to one of his
legs, he composedly went into corn
field to sleep. As he expected, he was
soon apprehended and taken before a
magistrate, who, after some deiibera-
ton, ordered two censtables to Guard
him to Richmond; no time was to be
lost, for Kilburn said he had not been
tried, and hoped they would not let
him lay till another assize. The
constables, on their arrival at the gaol,
accosted the gaoler with "Sir, do you
know this man? 7" ayes, very well; it
is Kilburn; 1 have known him many
years." eve suppose he has broken
out of your gaol, as he has a chain and
paddock on with your mark is he not
prisoner?" ~ never heard any harm
of him in my life" "Nor," says Xii
burn, "have these gentlemen.-Sir !;
they have been so kind as to bring me
out of Bedfordshire, and | will not put
them to further convenience. | have
got the key of the paddock, and | will
not trouble them to unlock it; / am o.
bliged to them for their kind beha-
viour." He travelled this way about
40 miles.--.N. Y. Post.

did him deal of good, though he could
not take them ALL"
''Take them ALL" cried our friend
why, my good woman, how did you
apply them p
"Oh,I managed nicely" said the
wife, looking quite contented with her.
seit:-"for variety's sake, I boiled one
half, and made fry out of the other.
The first he took made him very sick.
But what he took was quite enough, !"
continued she, seeing some horror in
the doctors countenance, ''for he was
better the nextmorning, and to-day he
is quite WELL"
"Umph !" said the doctor, with sa-
plent shake ofthe head. "Fftheyhaye
cured him that is sufficient, but they
would have been better applied exter-
nally."
The woman replied that she would
DO SO the next time; and | doubt not.
that If ever fate throws score of unfor-
tunate leeches into herpower again, she
will make a poulfice of them.
"A barber, who has been much pla-
gued with interlopers who were in the
habit OF coming into his shop to be sha-
we'd and telling him to charge it," af.
ter tAe performance of the operation,
has nearly broken the custom by ask
ing his pay as soon as one side of the
face is shaved. Ifthey do not poney
up, he leaves the unshaven cheek IN
statu quo, and hastens the gentlemens
departure from his premises as fast as
possible. Bat the barber had one ap-
pllcant who took the matter very east
ly. AS he went into the street with
one side ofhis face in the predicament
aforesaid, he turned back to the barber
and exclaimed, 81 don't care, fer can
get the other cheek shaved for half
price, so have made three cents out of
you, after all"

ed, s'Sir, these rumps are. pretty little things,

Johnson growled at this reply for some time,

portrait by Sir Joshua. Occasionally he read
much at night when in bed; other times
when notdisposed to read, yetunable to sleep,

No application of a charitable description
was made to him in vain; itinerant mendi-

never failed to give them relief, while his ac-
tons generally eyinced much goodness of
heart, and great commiseration for the poorer
classes ofsociety."

A new county was recently laid off
a few months ago in Tennessee and
called "Benton." Within that county
a town was recently laid out, & Judge
-, a venerable oldgentleman, was
consulted as to the most appropriate
name to be given to it. "Why," SAID
the Judge, 81 hardly know what to tell
you, but, as you have named your
county after one of the greatest rascals
in the nation, rather think you had
better carry out the principle and call
your town MURREL.

man." said the doctor, chow is your

"Oh yes, surely" answered the wo-
