ASEA BuLL.-An Irishman who served
on board man Of war in the capacity of
waiter, was selected by one of the officers
to haul in towline of considerable length,
which was towing over the tafrails. After
tousing forty or fifty fathoms, which had
put his patience SO severely to proof, as
well as every muscle Of his arms, he NUT
tered TO himself, "Sure it's as lcng as to-
day and tomorrow! It's a. good weeks
work for any five in the ship!-Bad luck 10
The leg or arm it'll leave me at last! What
more Of it ye,!-Och, murlher! the sa's
mighty deep to be sure!' After conllnu-
ing in similar strain, and conceiVing
there was little probability of the COM
p,e,inn Of his labor, he suddenly stopped
short, and addressing the officer of the
watch, exclaimed, "Bad manners to me
sir, if don't think somebody's cut off
the other end of it"

The Charleston Patriot suggests with
great proprety, that the 9Th Congress
should vote a-year's salary TO the family
of the late Good President" The char
acter of the country and justice to the
dca. alike requires it. Blu, the act TO be
grateful, should be prompt-and the vote
unanimous. And he who casts il, should
feel that he is called to the enjoyment of a
high privilege. In expressing these senti-
ments we believe we are uttering the SEN
,iments of the nation. We know that we
are expressing those of the South, and in
evidence, we call attention to the fact that
the suggestion originated and was sustain
ed by presses which warmly opposed Gen.
Harrison's election Washington ADDER.
