Strong Reasoning.

MIA youngmen's debating club somewhere
down in Indiana, the question was, "which
is the greatest EVIL, a scolding wife or smo-
ky chimney?" After the appointed dispu-
tants had concluded the debate, a spectator
rose and begged the privilege of making a
few remarks on the OCCASION" Permission
being granted, he delivered himself in this
way:
"Mr. President, I've been almost mad a
listening to the debate Of these 'ere young
sters. They know nothing at all about the
subject. What do they know about the evils
of ascolding wife? Wait till they have had
one for twenty years, and been hammered
and jammed and stammered all the while !;
and wait till they have been scolded because
the baby cried, and because the fire wouldn't
burn, because the oven was too hot, because
the cow kicked over the milk, because it
rained, because the sun shined, because the
butter wouldn't come, because the cat had
kittens, because they came too soon for din
ner, because they were minute too late,
because they sung, because they tore their
trowsers, because they invited women to
call again, because they got sick, or because
they did anything else, no matter whether
they could help it or not, or because they
didn't do something else, no matter whether
they could or not, before they talk about the
evils Of scolding wife, Why, Mr.. Presi-
dent, I'd rather hear the clatter of hammers
and stones on twenty tin pans and nine brass
kettles, than the din of scolding wife.
Yes-sir-EE! would! 70 my mind, Mr..
President, smoky chimney is no more to a
scolding wife than little niger is to dark
night"

An English traveller, aiier describing the
fete given at Paris. in honor Of the last
peace with Great Britain, concludes with
the following anecdote
"A lusty Frenchman, who from his
head dress, a la Ttas,I shall distinguish
by that name -escorting lady, whom on
account Of her beautiful hair, shall style
Bernicc on one Of the hindmost
benches. The belle, habited in tunic a

displayed the elegant form Of her leg, was
unfortunately not Of stature sufficiently
commanding to see over the peoples head.
Il was to to no purpose that the gentleman
called out "a bas les chapeaux," when the
hats were of, the lady still saw no better.
"What will gaiIantry suggest to a man
OF fashionable education? Our considerate
youth perceived ut no great distance, some
persons elevated on plank, supported by
a couple Of casks. Confding the lovely
Bernice to my care, he vauished--but al
most in an instant he re-appeared, fol-
lowed by two men bearingan empty hogs
head, which il seems he procured from the
tavern at the west entrance Of the Tuiller.

"To place the cask near the feet OF the
lady, pay for it, and fix her on it, was the
business Of moment,
"Here then she was, like statue on its
pedestal, enjoying the double qualification,
Of seeing and beng seen. But, for the
enjoyment to be complete, we must share
it with those we love. Or examining the
place where she stood, the lady saw there
was room for two, and accordingly invited
the gentleman to place himself beside her,
