The Pennsylvania tells the following
amusing story of an eccentric old monoma-

and at the same time the funniest, we have
read in twelve month:

gave orders to sign painter 10 prepare him

The sign was painted according to directions,
but the friends of the monomanac ilterier-
ed and prevented il from being put up. His
customers not liking the idea Of dealing with
the devil, dropped oil, except one knavish
old negro named David Camille who, by hu-
morng the lunatic, cOntrived TO swinlle HIM
out OF goods to considerable amount. A
cousin of MIR. Simms who thought it expedi-
ent to keep a watch over the conduct oil his
insane relative was in The back part OF the

"A girl young and pretty, but above all
gifted with an air of adorable candor. lately
presented herself before certain Partisan
lawyer, 1--WE translate the incident from the
French journals for the benefit of our home
eNcte atiorneys) and thus addressed him:
Monsieur, | have come TO consult you
upon grave affair want TO oblige a man
! love. to marry me in spite of himself. How
shall proceed 2"
The gen,emon of the bar had OF course
sufficiently elastic conscience. He reflected a
moment then being sure that no person
overheard him. replied unhesitatingly:
Z" Mademolselle. according to our law you
already possess the means of forcing man
TO marry you. You must remain on three
occasions alone with him then you can swear
before Judge that he is your lover. "
And will that suffice Monsieur 2h

dition.

Very well. Monsieur. will retain you
as counse in the management OF this affair.

| A few days afterwards the young lady re
turned. She is mysleIiOusy received by the
Dung lawyer, who, scarcely giving her tune
to seat herself, questions her with the most

A fortnight afterwards, the young person
more adire and candid than ever Knocked dis
creetly at the door Of her counsei's ROOM
No sooner was she within, than she slung her
sell hastily into "a chair, saying that she hac
mounted the stairs too rapidly aud that emo
ton made her b'euthless. Her counse! en-
deavored to assure her; and made her III

FEMALE CoURAGE.-The following instance
of courage and presence Of mind in servant
girl. reminds US. says the Echo de Verone, OF
the slave in the story of Ali Baba and Forty
Thieves:
Two men knocked late in the evening. at
the door of a solitary inn. situated in the re-
mote part OF the town Of Verone. The mas
ter being absent. the only inmates were his
wife and servant; their most serions appre-
tensions were excited by the aspect Of the
men who demanded to be accommodated for
the night. AFRAID to refuse they admitted
them and at their request supplied tlie,ti
with refreshments. The night wore on and
the strangers were still drinking at length
they called for more wine. The servant GIRL
answered that il would be necessary to tap
fresh cask, and asked one of them TO ac-
company her to the cellar; he did so, his
companion remaining with the MISTRESS
When the eask was bored, the girl put her
hand into her pocket as il to search for some
thing, then, exclaiming, that she had forgot
ten the spigot, begged the man 10 hOld his
finger on the oritce. while she went 10 seek
it. Quick as thought she ascendes to the
kitchen. and said TO the other robber:
How stupid | am! have left your COM
panion without light Pray take him this.
| shall follow you in moment with the spigoi.'
The man obeyed mechanically. but he had
M sooner passed the lrap-door. and descend
ed to the bottom of the ladder, than the ready
wltied girl shut and bolted the trap-door.-
Then mounting guard she threatened to pour
boiling water on the first who attempted to
raise The door. Meanwhile, the mistress
went to seek tor help. She soon returned
and the prisoners were delivered up TO the
gencarmerie, who recognized in them two
dangerous convicls. who had just escaped
from the bagDio OF Rocheiort.
