Lexington union. (Lexington, Miss.) 1838-18??, 1841-05-01

J Philadelphia Chronicle tells the following
story Of two Boston boys, who 'put up a
Browns Hotel on the night Of the Sd, anc
were bunked in dark room:
They were quickly ensconced between
the sheets, and, we doubt not, were buslIy
snoring IN few minutes. The morning
of the 18th broke bright and glorious-the
sun rubbed his eyes, washed his face, and
put on clean shirt collar; bells were
sending forth merry peal; cannons were
believing themselves hoarse and the
mass Of the multitude were vending their
way to the Capitol. Our heroes slept
midst all the noise and tumult.
! The ceremonies were over-the people
had retired to dinner-the grand display
was past, and many an aching head was
pressing the pillow, when some surprise
was manifested by the chambermald Of
the hotel at the .non.appearance of the
gentlemen. Beds must be made up, and
chambermaids cannot wait with patience.
Sambo, the head servant, was despatched
to the room to see what was the matter
He knocked loudly at the door, and was
requested to "come in"
"Hallo, Snowballw said the one on the
front side OF the bed; 'sall alive in tho
streets, ell? much going on breakfast
ready?"
"No, massa, they've go; through going
on, and supper is on the table,"
How the two gentlemen felt, and the
strange words uttered when they ascer.
tanned the length of time they had slept
and learned the ceremonies were over, we
leave to The Imagination Of our readers
but of one thing we are assured, that at
the next Inauguration, neither O. them will
sleep in a dark room.
