ADDRESSED To THE FLIES.
You buzzing, brothering, filthy race
With open hand I'll give you chase
You shall not rest upon my face,
AS I'm sinner,
Fen should fail to ask for grace
O'or my dinner.
You have no manners-not . whit
Right on my pudding there you sit,
AS if you owned every bit
The dish and all
But faith I'll give you such a hit
I guess you'll fall.
Down there you go. plump in the butter
Now buzz and kick and sprawl and sPlutter
You're welcome to frisk and flutter,
And bite-I'll risk ye
YOU'RE safe as drunkards in the gutter,
Skinfull of whiskey.
Mind there, Miss Fly, what you're about
That pot contains no cream nor krout,
And when you're in you'll find it out,
By strength of mustard;
But, faith, I'm glad you took that route,
And MISSED the custard'
With eyes protruding from your pates,
You cling like q settlers to the plates,
Especially to mistress Kites:
That seems to please you;
But, faith. you'd better leave the States,
Tha n!lavc her seize you.
When in my chair take my doze,
You perch yourself right on my nose,
Or else you creep beneath my clothes,
And act unciyiI
You would disturb in his repose
Ths Spirit of all Evil
You should not bite your lusscs SO,
Through stocking holes about tho toe
You know they'd blush before beau
To stop and scratch it !;
And, knowing that's tender toe,
Please do not bite it.
Your inpru,nncs can't abide,
Miss Fly : Ifyou had shlme or pride,
Ny pen you would not thus b.striI,
Without, n saddle
And, while write, stick on to rilc,
SquawIi!le, a-straIdI,
Oh far one cold December night,
With stormy winds that fierccIy fight,
To drive these hateful plaques from sight,
Back to old Carlo
Where Noses called them forth to bite
Tn" host Of Pharo.

TIE JUDGE AND 'TIE: LANDLADY.
From t!.c Note Boo.1 of II Enu-yer.

From t.c Note Boo!s of Enwyer.
Among the members of the bar was
young il, whose round smooth
face, soft skin and clear complexion gave
him rather letuiaine cast of countrnance.
And the mode in which he dressed his
hair, heightened the effect of his peculiar
Physioguomy. In his childhood he re-
ceiyed an injury on his head, from a
scald, which ever prevented the growth
Of any hair on the scaldrI spot. On eve
ry other part OF his head his hair was of
the most luXurigut growth. This ble-
mish he was always very careful to con
ceal, By combing his hair over the naked
place, and fastening it with lady's
comb.
But it must no: be inferred that II. vas
feminine in disposition, for more manly,
generous hearted, good natured fellow
never lived. He was always full Of fun,
and was always ready to enter into any
kind of a joke that was going on.
The landlady, at one OF our usual stop
precise, formal widow, considerably past
the prime of life, who valued herself We
ry much for her strict propriety of deport-
ment and the responsibility OF her house.
To do Mrs. L. justice, it must be admit
ted that her house was the most orderly,
and the neatcSt in its arrangements, Of
any in the circuit.
But some of US thought that her ex-
treme nicely of demeanor bordered ra.
ther on prudery, and the great pains she
always took to provide for the comfort Of
the Judge, who was formal old bache-
lor, manifested 4 preference not altoge-
Their to the taste of some of the younger
members of the bar, who thought them
selves equally as well entitled as the
Judge to the kind consideration of the
landlady. Some of them, therefore, de-
tsrnlined to indulge themselves in Joke,
! at the first convenient opportunity, ut
the expense Of the Judge and the hostess.
The appearance of II. on our circuit af-
forded convenient opportunity for
playing of the long contemplated prank
As II. had never been victimized on
our circuit, no scruples were entertained
on that account.
| We had been riding during the greater
part of a cold, uncomfortable day, over an
extensive prairie, exposed TO a sharp cut
ting wind, when re approached within
a few miles Of Mrs. L., whom We intend
ed honorlng with our company on tha;
very night.
f. and G. suggested that it would be
better 10 ride ahead, and give Mrs. L
timely warning of our approach, in order
that she might have ample time to prepare
the supper, and make the necessary prep
artion for slowing US away.
| This was at once acceded to by all, anG
F., and B., and myself offered ourselve:
as the advance guard.
Mounted on fine horses, and going a
rapid pace, we soon arrived at the
/ house.
Onr landlady received US in her usua
stiff, formal manner, and soon commen
ced making inquiries about the Judge, o.
whose health and speedy arrival we gave
satisfactory assurance.
| We found as usual, that the best bed
in the house aud the best stall in the sta
ble were reserved for the Judge.
az Mrs. L." observed F., in seriou:
manner, chow long have you been ac
! quaintcd with Hon Judge T. ?''
