Nor so VERY GREEK.-A young and ap-
parant!y verdant strip, who gave bis hailing
place az Old Vermont found himself sur
rounded upon certain occasion by crowd
of quizzing upstarts, who seemed bent upon
displaying their own smartness at the ex-
pense OF the Yankee.
"HellO. Jonathan" says one, "Hhete are
you bound ?"
"Deoun to BOsting, on little tramp" "
was the reply.
"What's your business IN Boston ?" con-
tinued the inquisitiye gentleman.
ooh, I'm deoun after my pension mon
ey," responded gree1y.
"Pension money" calculated whiskeree,
chow much do you get and what are you
drawing pension money for ?"
"Oh," answered the countrynan, u get
four cents every year-tew mind my own
business, and tew let other folks business
aloneP'
The crowd had no more remarks to offer.
The answer was entirely satisfactory.

had better devote their attention to their

than to End so much fault with the ladies.
The gentlendeti of Pittsburg must be rather
a comical looking set, if Mrs. SIS portrait
of them is correct She says:
"Here. for two winters, they have been
stalking around, looking for all the world
like so many pumkins with tmo corn stalks
stuck in the blossom end; and a bit Of stem
left on the other,-in coats Just the length
Of farmers warmus, half yard too wide,
stuffed out with Uaddiug, and drawn up
around their esrs,-sleeTes ike mesl sacks
and pantaloons as tight as fiddle strings
To see them handle their drumsticks in
this outfit was a natural curiosity. This
winter the stilt Ike supporters mysteriOusly
disappear, pantsloons are invisible. and
coats bid fair to rival ladies' skirts in the
sublime art Of sweeping streets.

"sam,sn Biography.

Distinguished men, like Greeley and
Barnum, have been giving to the world
biographical sketches Of their lives. That
is all very we'll But there is another and
more important persousge, whose biogra-
phy has never been written, but whose
life is full of interesting events. Weallude
to "Sam." Rev. Mr.. Brooke. of Washing
ton, has given brief outline of his life,
which we give below;
Il said die not know who Sam is, but
l believe l can give part of his history
He, like the Pope is historical character.
He was born in the Garden of Eden, and
when the world was deluged, safely rode
out the storm with Noah in the ark. He
was busy at the tower Of Babel; be wan.
dered with the children of Israel in the
desert; he was in the train Of Miriam when
she sang her inspired song; be blew the
loudest rams horn trumpet when the walls
Of Jericho fell; he clothed John the Baptist,
and was with him on the banks Of the riy-
er; he held up the chains of Paul when
he appeared before Felix.
He had hard time between the Popes
and the inquisition, but it was be who led
the young Luther to the dust-colored BIZ
bic in the old monastery he was with the
Pilgrim Fathers, of old Plymouth memory,
when they crossed the Ocean; be laid the
corner stone Of the first Protestant church
in the colonies; and it was he Hko stirred
up the old and young, rich and poor, the
high and Low, iE the oppressed colonies,
that even the mountain boys knew Sam
YES about.
He introduced Patrick Henry TO the
House of Burgesses, when he, with his
soul over6OWering with patriotism. and his
voice clothed with the power of thunder,
gsve uiteranee to these immortal words
: Giive as Liberty or give as Death.'"

The DduBie BABY at Lnnca.,er.

Ihe R0uDIe BABY at Lancaster.
We stated few days since, tlat
strange case of malformation bad occurred
at Lancaster in this State. and promised 4
more full description of the curious pro
duction, which We hoped 10 gain at the
hands Of some Of our medical friends. A.
they, however, from some cause or other
do not incline to do it, we have put severa
of them under cross-examinsti5n, and in.
tend % et1body in our own language what
We have learned. Our friend Prot. N. T.
Marshall, Of the Medical College of Ohio
and perhaps others of the city, have seen
the prodigy, which is. without doubt; one
of the most remarkable freaks Of nature
known to science. or recorded in history.
TIE February number Of the Western Lam
Get, published in this city, will contain. as
We are informed, full scientific description
Of the wonder.
From the lower extremity of the breast
bone-where the junction Of the two bod
les takes place-upwatds, there are the up
per parts Of two perfect and well-deYeloped
infants-two heads. two pair of aftus, two
chests. two stomaehs, two hearts, two pair
Of lungs and two livers. From the same
point downRsrds; the blending Of the two
systems into one becomes more and more
intimate, until it seems almost perfect and
complete. The intestines, and al the low
er organs are in common with common
ternini, and the legs made up Of the tight
leg Of one and The left leg of tie other are
a pair. standing in the proper position rela-
tive TO each other and to the organs in
their vicinity.
In the rear, however, The Union is less
perfect, there being two Well-developed
spines, each terminating in 8 separate os
coeeygis;; and. what is peculiarly strange, |
the two inner legs, dislocated at the hip
joints, are thrown backwards and upwards, |
and jointed together, are found passing un-
der the true skin of the back Of the body |
lpoh the right, the feet being extricated |
md standing up heel TO heel, nearly in its
ace.
The child is female, with apparently a
perfect sexual organization. The bodies DO
lot exactly face each other. but are more
learly face to face than size to side. One
5 apparently somewhat more robust than
be other, and it is evident that in many of
he characteristics Of their constitutions
hey are different As one is capable Of
suffering while the other is tnconcious of
Jain, il follows that their nervous systems
ire several, from which it is. we suppose,
o be inferred that, in case they should sur
i've, each will possess character and in
lividuality Of its own.
This strange phenomenon is the offspring
{ respectable parents at Lancaster. Al
hough delicate, it is thought the chances
re in favor of its surviving. The case is
the hands Of DR.. Boestler. one of the
ldest physicians of the State, whose skill
n its treatment is spoken of in terms of
ish eommendation.-Cin. Com.

Take your daily bread and be thankful

A woman who wants charitable heart,

males judgment must be herown feelings;
and if she judge harshly, her feelings are
moi delicate. Her experience is her own

impose silence. Innocence is. not suspic-

former.
