chance of membership.
Under such stringent regulations the society be-
comes quite select, and expulsions were not unfre-
quent OF members who had forgotten themselves SO
far as to be betrayed into momentary haste in act
or word
At length, one unconscousy lazy chap found his
way inso the society, who gave occasion to suspi-
cions that his hour of rising in the morning too
early for the reputation of the institution. He was
seen on several successive mornings sitting in bis
rocking chair, near the front window, at an early
hour, and information was forthwith lodge with the
President, to that effect.
The accused, on being arraigned was informed of
the charge against him. and confronted by his accu-
sers, who duly proved their statements; when, in
reply, the culprit stated that the reason he was IN
his rocking chair at early hour was, that he
tcas too id lazy to go to bed.
The society not only accepted his explanation, but
deemed him q fit subject tor tie presidency, the in
cumbent resigned with such promptilude nearly

unanimously elected in his stead-a position which,
we need hardly add, he retained until too lazy to

buried with all the honors Of his lazy position.

The DEFINITION OF THE Word CREoLE.-Some
suppose the Creole be nearly black, imagining the
word to be used as a term of disgrace or reproach
The Spanish word Criilo (Creoe) was originally ap
America and the West Indies, in whom white blood
unmixed with that of every other race, existed
This is still the only acceptance of the term in the
West Indies. Mulatto is the offspring of a white
and negro; Quadroon, of white and mulatto
being one-quarter black; Mustes, of white and q
quadroon being one-eighth black Terms implying
much less aduixture of black blood, are prevalent
in Cuba Creole simply implies white native OF
those Gopical climates, and a Nastafna of white
and mustee, being ons-sixtsenth white.

either Corbyn, or some other equally irreverent wa.
has put Shakespeare Othelo into rhyme Alden
essence of Cuffee must yield the palm.
Othello a captain bold,
Though black as coal by nature;
To Desdemona he was bound
beautiful young crayturs.
With her he led happy life,
For she was virago,
Until one day he chanced to meet
villain, named lago
Says he, your wI1e's perJured Jade,
She is a faithless lassie, oh !!
She dosen't care a straw for YOU
She'd give your eyes for Cassie.
With him she gallivants about
In all her hours of aysure
She stold your pocket handk erchief
For him to wipe his razor.
My handkerchief my handkerchief!
Othello then did stammer
My cotton pocket handkerchief!
''Oh. d-.her, lewd MINK d her!'
Neither with dagger, with dirk
For that would make foul stir
But first I'll put the candle out,
And SHAY her with the boulster!
Our excellent friend Tom has added a moral
Othelo is the negro race
Iago is their Greeley!
And if the darkies follow him,
He'll bamboozle them ginteelly!
