THE WALKER RECEPTION.

THE WALkEh hEtLE AhOANs
III The New York Evening Post gives ver-
sia.d account of the Canal street meeting in
that city. TO take measures for the reception Of
Walker. We give one Of the speeches which
sounds a good deal In the "Bigelow'' vein:
MR.-NAN rises.
AIa-"Yankss Doodle"
Now, fellsr citizens, I rise,
Although I'm not talker,
To tell you how my oussum beats
When think on Gin'ral Walker
The greatest man that ever lived.
At hghtln' or retrsatln':
HIS virtues REILLY can't be told
At 8 premn nary meetin'.
He gives the Costa Ricans FITS
Because they would mt rather
Believe the Gn'ral when he said
He was their eountry's father.
He tried to make EN- think that he
Came a lIberator,
To give the Bible with one hand,
With t'other plant later.
But these ungrateful varmints then
Became no pesky savage,
The Glnra felt that he was called
Their settlements to ravage.
And then the sarpints on him turned,
And n he'd been less heeter,
shouldn't been surprised If they
HAD killed him Ike skeeter.
But he disdainfuly withdrew
He didn't want to quarrel;
And a. he didn't glt none there,
Well crown his head with laurel.
Chorus omnes:
And veil dance and we'll sing, like an honest Hi
And we'll lam like old Sam, any one who don't pass
muster.

LADIES BBwARB.-we have no prudish objec-
ton to hoops Of moderate size On the contrary,
they are in every respect preferable to the dozen
or twenty skirts which they have superseded,
being lighter, cooler. and more graceful in APP
pearance. But the excessive rotundity is getting
to be decidedly inconyenient. One can hardly
shake hands with fashionable lady in conse-
quence Of the very @ respectful distance" inter-
posed by these haystack skirts, and as for any
nearer approach is as vain to attempt il as for
Tantalus to touch the tempting fruit. But, Ia
dies, q whisper in your private ear. Are you
aware that, here In New Yoik, the broader the
skirt, the narrower the line between the Saint
and the CypTian and that the women who wear
the largest haDits' generally the loosest in
them .-fact.-N. Y. Mirror

NERVOUS OFFIcKHoLDER.-The Newbury-
port Herald says that man who, for many years,
had held small post office in Essex county, be-
ing constitutionaily nervous, Is periodically
alarmed lest he should lose his ''place in the
Commonwealth" A waggish neighbor, in order
TO try his equanimity, caused a letter to be adj
dressed from Washington to one of the postmas-
ters neig hbors, who is an applicant for the office:
10 this pettioning neighbOr, -. Esq postrnas-
ter Of -. The knowing ones were assembled
TO see what effect II would produce. The post
master seized the letter IL was too much for his
nerves; his office was n 'goner.' He gaZed mo-
ment turned red !; turned white; sat down and
tainted. Even when the cruel hoax WAS declared
he could not command himself again. file went
home, but ate no supper that night; il made him
too sick to think of eating He went to bed but
sleep came to his eyes, nor slumbeT TO his eye
lids; and Yesterday he was really sick man.
