A HUNGRY CARPET BAa.-The Buffalo Ex-
press relates an amusing incident which oc-
cured at Erie q few days since "A gentleman
left Cleveland for New Fork at an early hour III
the morning, without his breakfast, and being
very hungry, upon the arrival of the train a
Erie entered the dining room, and placing his
carpet bag upon chair, sat down beside It and
commenced valorous attack upon the viands
placed before him. By and by the proprietor
OF the establishment came around to collect
fares, and upon reaching our friend calculated,
&" Dollar, sir! =" A dol'arl'' responded the
eating man, 90 dollar-thought you only
charged fifty cents a meal for one--eh ~
!" That 8 true" said Meanness, but I count
your carpet bag one, since it occupies seat."
(The table was far from being crowded) Our
friend expostulated, but the landlord insisted,
and the dollar was reluctantly brought forth.
The landlord passed on. Our friend deliber4
ately arose and opening his cnrpet bag, full in
its wide mouth, discoursed unto it, saying,

human individual, since you eat--at least We
paid tor you. and now You must eat" Upon
which, he seized every thing eatable within his
reach, nuts, raisins, apples, cakes, pies, and
amid the roars of the bystanders, the delight Of
his brother passengers, and discontinue Of the
landlord, phlegmatically went and took his seat
in the cars. He said he had provisions enough
to last him to New York, after bountifal sup
ply had been served out in the cars. There
was at least rs worth in the bag--upon which
the landlord realized nothing in the way Of
profit. So much for nleanncss. ,,.,, ,.,, 's..is

4 Picture Of Henry 4. Wise !.

Tie Hon. Henry A. Wise lately made d
speech at Parkersbury, Va. A correspondent
OF the McConncilsvilIe Enquirer, who heard
him, thus writes his impression of the man
He says:

of the man. had expected in Henry \. y ise
to see a person of commanding Stature up
right bearing, with flashing eyes and noble fore
head; but he is 40 such man He is s,ele:s the
medium height; not more THAI i've feet seven
or eig'it inches, very spare, would not weigh
more than q hundred and thirty, probably not
that.
There is nothing prcposSess;ag about him
He is, IN fact, positivcly ugly. Very gentle
manly and courteous in his bearing toward
others, but iii his dress he is almos! :s-sioyen.

man.
When first Wise the stand, during
the few moments Of his opening remarks,
