CoNJgNcTIoNs.-A conjunction means,
literally, a union or meeting together. An
il.sorted marriage is Il tomical coninnc-
ton. But our conjunctions are used 10
connect words and sentences, and have
nothing 10 do with the joining Of hands.
The Siamese twins formed Il singular con
junction. A lin pot fastened 10 a dogs
tail is a disagreeab'e conjunction tothe
animal. A happy pair may be regarded
as an uncommon con junction. Commune
tions connect similar moods and lenses Of
verbs, and cases Of nouns and pronouns
as, IA coat Of arms suspended on a wall
is like an executed traitor; it is hanged
drawn and quartered." IF yon continue
thus to drink brandy and water and TO
smoke cigars, you will be like Bnreas, the
north wind, who takes Geld without,
wherever he goes. and always blows a
cloud when il comes in his way" "Do
you think there is any thing between him
and her 7'' Eyes; he and she are enga.
ged nes."-Comic English Grammar.
| 7Ae Son Of Burns, he Poet-The
Greenoek Scotland Advertiser, says:-
| We had the pleasure, two days ago, to
meet Col. Burns, soh Of the poet, who has
lately returned from d thirty years resi-
dehce in India. MI. M'Diarmid, Of the
| Dumfries Courier, accompanies the colo
mel in a tour which he is making Of the
| scenes of his own and his fathers youth.
and also a visit to the Highlands. Colo
! mel Burns bears a striking resemblance to
the portrait Of his iITustrious relative by
| Naysmith, and is d gentlenanly %unafec-
ted person, with obviously a warm and af-
I fectionate enthusiasm for every thing
connected with the memory Of his father.
He expressed himself delighted with the
warmth and cordiality of his reception by
those of his countrvmen who had been in
troduced to him, and said he already felt
himself quite at homein the ''land ofcakes'
"a land overf1owing with the rich memo.
ries and glorious rocolleetions which his
parent has now put the seal of immortal,
Ety upon.
