A BULL ABOUT Bull. A little volume
lately published in London entitled "Irish
Diamonds" contains the annexed jeor d eS-
prit-a really felicitous anecdote, and as good
as any thing in Joe Miller:
A merry evening party, in an English
country town, were bantering poor Teddy the
Irishman about his countrymen being so ia
nous for bulls.
BY my faith" said Teddy, you needn't
talk about that same in this place; you're as
fond of bulls as any people in all the world, so
you are"
Nonsense !" some of the party replied J;
" how do you make that out?"
"Why, sure, it's very easy, it is; for in this
paltry Bit Of town you've got more public
houses nor l ever seen wild the sign Of a bull
over the doors, so you have"
" Nay, Teddy, very few ofthose but there's
some of 'em, YOU know in every town."
Yes" said Teddy, obstinately sticking to
his text, for he had laid a trap for his friends,

you're so fond of bulls, as | say I'm sure !
can count half a dozen of 'em,"
" Pooh, nonsense" cried the party "that
will never do what'll YOU bet on that, Ted
DIV? You're out there, my boy, depend upon
it; we know the town as well as you, and what
will you bet ?"
"Indeed, my brave boys, I'll not bet at ali
I'm no better, assure ye,-I should be worse
if I war" This sally tucked his companions,
and he proceeded, " but I'll be bound TO name
and count the six"
"Wcl, do, do" said severalyoices.
Now, let me sec ; there's the Black Bull.
Yes, that's one"
Then there's the Red Bull"
That's two"
And the White Bull"
Come, that's three"
sand the Pied Bull"
T." So there is you'll not go much further"
" And then there s-there's-
Golden Bull, in--what's it street? ?"
Well done Teddy; that's five, sure enough
but you're short yet"

Sinking in the corner, "and he rW be short

carefully pursuing his enumeration, there's

BRIDGE OVER THE ILLINOIS. The Leg
iislaturc of Illinois have passed bill provid-
ing for the erection ola bridge across the mar
rows at the foot of Peoria lake, at the city of
Peoria. This bridge is to cross at the place
where William L, May now keeps ferry, and
will be of incalcuable advantage to the city
of Peoria, as well as to all the country sur
rounding it. Ample provision is made in the
law to protect commerce, and insure safe
passage for every description of water craft

three dishes were served up. Among them
are kitten hash, rat hash, sharks fins, dog
stew, plate of rats feline ragout, snail paste,
and snail soup. lie says that on tasting the
first dish he became disguised, and could not
proceed. No wonder.
