which had been so boisterous us to deny
the very necessary appendage of fish. On
the vory morning of the feast, however, q
poor fisherman made his appearance with a
turbot SO large, that it seemed to have
been created for the occasion. Joy perva-
ded the castle, and the fisherman was ush-
cred with his prize into The saloon, whcro
the nobleman, in the presence Of bis visitors,
requested him to put what price he thought
proper on tho fish, and it should be instantly
paid him. "One hundred lashes," said the
fisherman, "on my bare back, is the price
OF my fish, and will not bate one strand
OF whip. cord on the bargain" The noble
man and bis guests were not little as
tonlshed, but our chapman was resolute,
and remonstrance was in vain. At length
tho nobhman exclaimed, t"Well, we'll, tho
fellow is humorfst, and The fish We must
have, but lay on lightly, and let the pricc
be paid in our presence" After fifty lashcs
had been administered, "Hold hold I" ex-
claimed the fisherman II have q partner
In this business, and it is fitting he sbould
receive his share" "What, are there two
