SEALL MouTH, ONE HUSBAND T.
LARGE, Two.-OI3 Gov. L., of Yer
mont, was one of the most inveter.
ate jokerS of the early times One
of his jokes, which has never been
related in print, and never can be,
perheps with much effect; but we
will try it. One fall as he was re.
turning from the Legislature on horse
back, as usual at that day, he was
hailed from 2 house by a garrulous
old maid, who had often annoyed
him with questions respecting public
affairs.
swell, Governor" said she, COM
ing out towards the road, ..wha:
new laws have you paGyed at Mont
pelier, this timef" "
"Wells one rather singular law
among the rest" he replied.
'Dew tell Now what is it, Gov.
ernorf" asked the excited querist.
"Why, that the woman in each
town, who has the smallest mouth,
shall be warranted a. husband"
Keowee courier. [volume] (Pickens Court House, S.C.) 1849-current, 1851-04-26

up her mouth the smallest com
pass, what a queer curios Ion that isl''
"Yes, but we have passed another
that beats that-the woman who the
largest mouth is to have two hus-
bands"
"Why, wharf - exclaimed the old
maid, instantly relaxing her mouth
and stretching ii wider - at every
syllable, ''whart remarkable law
that is-when does it come in force,
Governorl"
Atthis, the Governor put spurs to
his horse, and vanished.
The Winchester Independent tells
the following story:
Some time ago some little urchns
engaged at play about the Tunnel,
when they wandered near sthe pow.
der magazine. They saw aquanti-
ty ofpowder lying on the ground,
about the door, which had been care
lessly scattered by the hand in filling
their canIsters. f'lIey concluded to
have some sport by putting fire to it.
Accordingly they scraped it all up in
a hea", procured some fire, and one
of them was bold enough to apply it
to the powder, which flashed up in
the little fellows face and burnt him
dreadfully. He was taken home,
his wound washed and dressed, after
which he was put to bed, suffering
much pain. The little boy was blind
and thought he would certainly die.
He called his mother to him, and ask
ed:
Mamma, am / going to die7'
i don I know, my son, she replied;
We'll, mamma, ] think am going
to die; can't you all sing some for
mel'
:Yes, my son; what do you want
us to sing!' asked the afectionate
mother.
why just sing Old Dan Tucker,

Locking into the River.

1t is not generally known or understood that the
Canal Trustees are required, by existing lave. TO
construct locks 80 as to connect he canal with the
rver at this place. The excuse which has been
gwen heretofore for not making this conncxon
has always been that there was 40 necessity for
locking into an 'nnarigdJic stream This excuse
together with the embarrassment of the State
the difficulty Of procuring money to carry on the
man work even, kept the people here quiet for
the time. Those who were here in SO and 'S7
will DOUBTLESS remember how thi, provision was
brought about The narigaJle feeder and the
conncNion with the river were the result OF the
contest about the improvement Of the river to

Stadden then in the Senate.
