dent OF The Charleston Mercury, under the above
heading has some new ideas about noses. Read
what h. says about II man asleep;
mo! 1t is this mans necessity that he should
sleep in this manner. You perceive that his nose
is dreadIuy small and Insignificant, hearing No
sort of proportion TO his jaws, and his physical
development generally. He Is a monstrous big
fellow, with mere button on his lace. instead Of
proboscs. Such persons can, SLEEP exc" pit with

would never employ person about him, having
an nsisniican, nose. He conteuded that each
person were always incapable of thinking justly,

A terrible snort and star, from the sleeper at
this moment, arrested further handling OF this
delicate subject. | think il likely that his nose
had snme secret instinct that made It conscious of
the liberties We were taking from 1t; for, in an
