THE BLgNDER OF Mr.. ,BUGs-Mr. Bugs was
yesterday brought before the Recorder the charge
OF having entered room thatdid not belong to him.
with some evil intent. Mr. Bugs was short man.
and much addicted to the poetry rather than the
prose of life. He told the Recorder as follows -
,, our honor, was going to the virtuous couch
where | repose, when suddenly there came up
tremendous storm. The gallery was darker than
millions of buckets of tar, or ten thousand tons of
anthracite coal in the midst of midnight, when the
moon was yelled by the clouds, and the stars not
wishing to be seen. darted out of the armament.
Well, sir, whilst deeplyabsorbed in thought, went
up stairs, imagining that | was going straight to
my room. | pulled the key of my room door out of
my pocket, but it would not fit the lock- knocked
at another room door, but nobody answered, and |
then came to the conclusion that had mistaken
my locality knowing, however, that there was a
very hard pavement beneath me, and sery con-
venient gallery for committing suicide, 10y mistake,
| entered into room, know not Where, and got
into a kind of a doze. | had been drinking, your
honor to extent and in the midst of the night
felt remarkable desire for ice water. After hay

pecting every second to be my last, accidentally
stumbled across the water pitcher and basin. No
Arab in the desert of Sahara was as dry as was
at that period. l shook the pitcher but could not
hear a single gurgle but there was some water in
the basin, from which / took a long draught At
this moment a colored woman, who had been af

with candle in her hand. Oh, massa !! you
