COMFORTABLY FULL The following anec-
dOte from the Boston Journal, illustrates very
we'll how much our ideas of comfort are influ-
enced by our feelings:
In the debate in the House, on the accep-
tance of the report relating to the lunatic hos
pltal at Northampton, one gentleman urged
the testimony of the Superintendent at Taun-
ton that that institution was comfortably full ,
now Mr.. Walker, of Roxbury, in order to
illustrate the different ways in which the term
comfortably full might be understood, stated
an incident which he recently witnessed. lie
had occasion to return from n visit in the
country to Boston by an omnibus. When he
got in there were four persons occupying the
whole of one sido-two gentlemen and two la
dies, dressed for the opera They seemed to
be annoyed by his entrance lest he should
crowd them, and, rs successive passengers
were received, they openly manifested their
opposition to 1t, and seemed to be greatly dis
tressed lest their opera dresses should get
rumpled. But before reaching the city twelve
persons occupied the omnibus, and it was, Of
course, Comfortably full But soon after
reaching the city, two other persons applied
to be received, and it was a question how it
could be done but as these two persons were
a young gentleman and lady friends of the
first named, and also going to the opera, room
was made for them by placing some of the
young ladies on the knees of their husbands
or lovers, and when he (Mr Walker) suggest
cd his apprehension that they must be crowd
ed, they replied, %, no we were never more
comfortable in our lives .''
