STRAPPED PANTALooNs-IN ALL OvER.-To
laugh at the mishaps of others, is not generally
accounted generous, yet there are occasions of
this character. Such was the case in this day,
when the wharf at the packet basin was lined
with travellers bout to take the packets, and
lookers-on, that young man issued from one
of the offices, and approached the canal for
the purpose of giving an inkstand ablution. His
pantaloons were strapped down to the extreme
of the fashion, making the act one of no little
effort and risk. The first essay to plunge the
inkstand into the water was failure, while the
strain consequent on it caused a succession of
snaps and cracks, indicating giving way OF
some part of the strapped pantaloons. Gaining
his perpendicular again, the young man threw
a little more force into his genuncctve effort,
but just us the object sought was on the point
of being gained, the straps, unable longer to
endure the strains to which they were subjcc-
ted, gave way, simultaneously causing nadir
dip Of the head and zenith dip OF the heels
and by the consequence, as neat plunge into
the basin, Of the body owning these head and
heels, as the most fastidious diver could desire
to see. 1t was done scientifically, and to the
delight of large circle of spectators, who tes-
tilted their appreciation by no chary use oflungs
and gestures. Soon, however, the submerged
one emerged to the light of day, and with his
first recovered breath, exclaimed; "D---n the
straps d--n the basin, and all those around
it." Let this be caution to those who are
| well strapped down to beware how they ven-
ture on experiments involving the possibility
of an involuntary bath.-Rochester Daily Ad-

A CAPITOL JoKE--The Lord Chancellor Of
Ireland having recently made an appointment
to visit the Dublin Insane Asylum, repaired
thither in the absence of the chief manager,
and was admitted by one of the keepers, who
was waiting to receive a patient answering
the appearance of Sir Edward. He appeared
to be very talkatve, but the attendants humo-
red him, and answered all his questions. He
asked ifthe Surgeon-General had arrived and
the keeper answered him that he had not yet
come. but, that he would be there Immediately.
"Wcll," said he, 81 will inspect some Of the
rooms until he arrives" "Oh no, Sir" said the
keeper, "we could not permit that at ALL"
"Then will walk for while in the garden"
said his Iordship, "while am waiting for him. "
awe cannot let you 90 there either, Sir" said
the keeper. "What!' said he, "don't you
know that am the Lord Chancellor 7" "Sir," )"
said the keeper, "we have four more Lord
Chancellors here already" He got into a
great fury and they were beginning to think OF
the strait-waistcoat for him, when fortunately
the Surgean General arrived. ''lIas the Chan
cellor arrived yet 7" said he. The man burst
on, laughing at him, and said, ayes, Sir, we
have him safe but he is by far the most ont.
rarcous patient we have" Mr.. O'Conncll told
this anecdote in Dublin, at public meeting.
