AoUAFoRr1s AS A BEVERAGE.

In the pretty village OF aauuounciu' No"
Jersey, some years ago, there resided an old
fellow who was familiarly known in the town
and country aronnd as "old joe" lie had
no particular occupation except doing
"chores" or crrands-nor any particular To-
cation. He ate where he could get bite,
and slept wherever he could find lodging
place. Joe was a regular old topper, and
Jersey lightning had no more effect on his
insides than so much water. He generally
made his headquarters at the lower, tavern,
for there were two in the town. lie would
sleep and doze away the afternoon on an old
bench in one corner of the bar-room, but
was always awake when there was any drink
ing going on. When he was not asked to
drink, he would slip to the bar and drain the
glasses of the few drops left in them. one
afternoon DR.. Bolus, the village physician,
was in the tavern mixing upa preparation.
He placed tumbler half full of aquGtortss
on the bar and turned around to mix up
some other ingredients. A few moments
after he had occasion to use the poisonous
drug, when he found, to his dismay, that the
tumbler had been drained to the last drop.
Mr. Wiggins," exclaimed the doctor in at
fright, to the landlord, ':what has become
of the aquqfortis put on the bar few
moments ago."
~ don't know" replied the landlord,
"unless Old Joe slipped in and drank it."
In this suspicion they were soon confirm
ed, for the hostler said he had seen Old Joe
swallow the fatal drought. The DOCTOR
knowing, that he must certainly die after
such dose, instituted search at once. Al
ter some hours spent in looking through the
barns, outhouses and woods, for three or four
miles around the village, Joe was abandoned
to his fate. 1t was cold night, and as the
village topers assembled around the blazing
hickory fire in the bar room, nothing was
though. of or talked of but the unfortunate
end of poor Old Joe. Some four days had
elapsed, and nothing having been heard
from Old Joe, they all came to the conclu-
sion that he was goner. The doctor, about
this time, had occasion so visit patient
some eight miles distant, what was his sur
prise, when about FIVE miles from the village
to see Old Joe in front of a farmers house,
splitting wood.
"Why, Joe," said the doctor riding up
to the fence, II thought you were dead and
buried before this %
"Why, what made you think that, Doc
tor?" said Joe, leaning on his axehandle.
"Didn't you drink that dose I left on old
Virgins bar few days since!'
"Yes," replied Joe, half ashamed to own
it.
"Do you know what it was?" asked the
doctor.
"No?" returned Joe.
"Why, it was aquaJortts-enough to Kill
a dozen menv'
"Well, now, Doctor, do you know that l
thought there was something queer about
that darned stuff, for after [ drank it, erery
time IJlowed my nose, Iburned a hole IN
my packet handkerchief"

A COLD WEATHER ANEcDoTE.-Among
the many sharpthings in "Porter's Spirit, "
is the following, which, considering the pres
ent spell of cold weather is about as sharp
as need be. A heavy fire having occurred
in Cleaveland, safe manufacturing firm IN
New York wrote to the sufferers from the fire
to ascertain how one of their, safes had stood
the scorching. The proprietor wrote back
that the "safe" was "safe"-that it was
wonderful, and adds that the night previous
to the fire, one Of the clerks placed a Shan
ghai rooster in the safe for sAFE-keepiDs.
In the morning the safe was dug out RED
HOT, opened, and the rooster found clean

The yarn is rather trying to,a mans faith,
but we suppose it must be true-in horn.

Times relates the following;
A gentleman informs us that for some
time past his coal pile has been growing
"small by degrees and beautifully less"
He suspected a neighbor for purloining it,
but his feeling of delicacy would not permit
him to accuse the party in an open manner.
But as he had made no contract "to keep
the city in coal" he felt that something
must be done to prevent the astonishing fall
ing off in his bin Accordingly he took a
large lump of the article, drilled hole in
it, filled the hole with powder and placed
the chunk upon the top of the pile. About
six hours after this he heard great explo-
sion next door, and upon looking in that d.
rection, he saw that his neighbor's house
was minus its windows, and the entire premi-
ses blackened with SCOT. He notes it as
rather remarkable that since this occurrence
his coal holds out much better than formerly.
