ANECDoTE OF Tom COMMISSIONS years

on political pilgrimage to the northern part

night with u distinguished local politician.
The guests arrived rather late, and the lady of
the mansion being absent niece undertook
to preside on the occasion. She had never
seen great men, and supposed they were eIe-
phantine altogether, and oil talked in great
language. "Mr Ewing, will you take condi-
ments in your tea sira" inquired the young
lady. eyes, miss, if you please" replied the
quondam salt boiler. Corwin's eye twinkled.
Here was fun for him. Gratifed with the sp-
parent success of her first trial at talking with
big men, the young lady addressed Mr. Corwin
in the same manner: "Will you take condi-
ments in your tea, siran aPepper and salt,
but no mustard, was the prompt reply of the
facetous Tom. Of course, nature must out,
and Ewing and the entertainer roared in spite
of themselves. Corwin essayed to amend the
matter, and was voluble in compliment, anec-
dote, and wit. But the wound was immedics-
