NATIONAL WIT.

Eliza Cooks Journal gives certain
characteristics and specimens of nation
al wit and humor. The Irish arc set
down at tho head Of all nations on this
score. Their wit is good naturcd, gen
ial, and as often hits themselves as 9th.
crs. The Irishman makes fun of his
own sufferings.
Once when the Lord Lieutenant of
Ireland was riding in the Phoenix Park
with Sir Hercules Langrishe, he COM
planned of his predecessors for leaving
it SO wet and swampy. Langrishe re-
piled, they were too much occupied
in draining the rest Of the kingdons.'
Pat on one occasion was being sentenc-
ed to transportation, and remarked to q
bystander, My lord is giving an ELI
gent lecture on botany When the
sentence turned out to be for fourteen
years, Pat who was already an aged
veteran said, I'm delighted to hear it,
my lord, for by me soul I didn't think
had half that long to live.' Three
Ilibernians were travelling together on
foot at night; tired and hungry they
asked the distance to their point of des-
tination. Three miles. was the reply,
Good luck to YOU returned the spokes-
man, that is only mile apiece for u.s.
An Irish car driver was presented
with shilling at his journeys end, and
grumbled loudly at the smallness Of the
fare. Faith, said he, 'it's not putting
mo off with this yc'd be, if We knew but
ALL The travellers curiosity was excl.

what do you mcan?' Faith, that
'ud be telling. Another shilling was
rendered. 'And now asked the gen
tleman, what do you mean by saying
if you knew but all?' That I drup yer
homer the last three miles ,cithout a
lynchpin."
A bcggcr woman in the country fol-
lowed gentleman to his great annoy.
ance, for about mile, and on bidding
him good bye, had the modesty to ask
him for % little sixpcnce.' For what
asked the gentleman, what have you
done for mc!' 'Ah then sure, havn't
| been keeping yer honor in discooysa?'
'The national wit of the Scotch is
altogether different from that of the
Irish. Indeed, the Scotchman is not
witty, so much as satirical, If he per.
pctrates a pun or joke, it often carri-
cs sting in it. He may raise the
laugh, but see if it is not at somebody's
cost. The following is good ilustra-
tion:-A meeting Of the elders of
certain kirk had assembled for the pur-
pose Of determining about the position
of stove, which was to be erected for
the purpose of warming the building on
Sundays. After considerable discus.
sion, an old man, who had hitherto said
but little, was asked for his opinion.
In my humble opinion,' he said, the
stove should be placed in the poopit,
for it is by far the coulaest place iin a
tie K;rk'
The English are not famous for their
wit. 'Thc national stock consists rath.

which men agree to laugh at, than to

And soon the wide door swung back,
and the miller, and the goldsmith, and
Langley came in. The three solitary
sisters shrunk away (for even now,
perhaps, they recollected their cruel
VOW but Lucy, with the noble spirit of
her race, recognized her cousin and one
dear.
"How dare you! where is your

The agent turned upon all one bitter
searching gaze, more deadly upon him
whom he had so deeply wronged, then,
starting past those who had come to
detain him, he bounded through the
open door. He was followed, bus he
had mounted his yet unsaddled horse,
and fed in the darkness of the night to
the woods. From this time, though
active search was made, he was not
heard of for many weeks, till shep.

perished in leaping the broad 6ssurc Of

The right of William Verdun was
coon made clear, and the old register
and tho silver flagon again rested in
their wonted crypt.

In recent lecture delivered before the
American Institute, by the celebrated
Professor Agassiz, he stated some Curl
ons facts respecting insects. He said
more than lifetime would be necessary
to enumerate the various species and des-
crlbe their appearances. There are nu-
merous species collected in the museums
of Europe, but they form only small
part of the whole number; and even of
these, the habits and metamorphoses are
almost entirely unknown, Meiger, Ger
man, who devoted his whole life to the
study, had collected and described six
thousand species of flies, which he col
lected in district ten miles in circum-
ference, but Of their habits he, knew
scarcely any thing. There have been
collected in Europe twenty-seven thous-
and species of insects preying on wheat.
In Berlin two professors are engaged in
collecting, observing and describing in
sects and their habits. already they have
published five large volumns upon the
insects which attack forest trees.-Sci.

EDUcATIoN.-An education is Young
mans capital; for we'll informed INTEL
ligent mind has the best assurance of
future competency and happiness. A
fathers best gift to his child. then. is a
good education. If you leave them
wealthy, you may assure their ruin; and
at best you only leave them that which
at any moment may be lost. If you leave
them with cultivated heart, affections
trained to objects Of love and excellence,
mind vigorous and enlarged, finding
happiness pure and elevated in the pur-
suit of knowledge, you affect an insur-
ance on their after happiness and useful
ness. Unless you bring up the young
mind in this way, you cannot with any
justice, claim for its possessor independ-
ence. Your children must be virtuous
or taey will not desire it. They must
be intelligent associates, as thew must
have habits Of industry and sobrieiy to
make the company OF the industrious
and sober agreeable. II is in your pow
er to bestow this virtue, this intelligence,
and these golden habits. Present them
a good model in your own life, and give
them every opportunity to cultivate the
heart and understanding. Spare not ex-
pense on your school, and put into your
children's hands everything tina. may
encourage or assist them in their mental
or moral improvement.
