Practical JOKE on AN OFFICE SEEKER
The Washington correspondent of the Albany
-Argus has the following;
"Rather dry joke was pcrpetrated upon a
distinguished Ohio politician. The quid nuncS
in Wizards Hotel discovered in the mail basket
at the Office one day, wide and long envelope
such as is used to enclose official papers, direct
ed to the Ohio gentleman by his full name and
title, in the Presidents own hand and bearing
the bold and handsome signature of James Blu
chanan on the right corner. Speculations were
Immediately aroused as to the meaning of the
documents it was Of course concluded to be a
commission As soon as the Ohio man came
in, the clerk obsequiously handed him the en-
velope, and he was Immediately surrounded by
crowd OF friends, eager to know the contents
among others, New York newspaper man,
anxious to get the first news in order to tee-
graph it to his paper. The Ohio gentleman was
as much surprised as any one, but affected mys-
terry; put the document carelessly in his pocket
without opening it talked nonchalantly with
friends for few moments, and amused himself
with their curiosity, and then slowly walked
away As soon as he was out of sight, howev-
er, he rushed breathessly to his room, and hur-
rledly broke open the envelope, eager to bless
the President for having bestowed upon him an
office unsolicited He opened it, and his hopes
fell as quickly as they had risen. The envelope
contained nothing but a printed copy Of the
Presidents special message on Lecompton =
Instead of a commission it was hint that the
Ohio gentlemans position was not understood
at the White House, and he accordingly set
himself to studying the message. The next day
he told the joke, which has caused considerable
amusement among those who understand the
peculiar relations of the parties"

A NEW WAY OF PAYING SUBSCRIP-

A correspondent of the Lagrange Wing gives

good many men we "Wot Of

proceeds of Il single hen for one season-mere-

GUS to imagine the products of single hen will
pay the subscription; perhaps it won't, but
make the offer"
"Done" exclaimed farmer B; 81 agree to
it." and he appealed to me as witness in the
affair.
The farmer went away, apparently much elat-
ed with his conquest, and the editor went on his
way rejoicing
lime rolled around. The farmer received his
paper regularly and RECALLED himself with the in
formation from it. He not only knew the affairs
of his own county, but became conversant up
on the leading topics of the day. and the politi-
cal and financial commissions of the times. His
children delighted, too, in perusing the contents
of their weekly visitor In short he said, che

up with bland smile "take chair, sir and

farmer and then a short silence ensued, dur

he said, addressing the editor -

of the editor as he followed the farmer down to
the wagon. l could hardly keep my risibles

When at the wagon, the farmer commenced
handing over to the editor the products of the

eighteen pullets worth Il shilling each, and a

YANKEE COURTSHIP.

Yankee courtship, in the country, is a "pecul-
lar institution and the parties at first sight are
as shy as rabbits. Sally generally sits in the
chimney corner, beside the dye-pot, knitting
stockings, and Jonathan sits in the opposite cor
ner, eating apples, swapping seed occasionally
at his sweetheart, and looking at the pictures in
the fire Thus they will sit and say "nothing
hardly" until late in the evening, and Jonathan
thinks it time to 20 home, when he will put on
his hat, and depart with some such remark as
this "Wcll, Sal, guess I'd better be gittin'
along. It's hog-killin' tomorrow, and I've got
to be up right smart airly."
"Good night, Jonathan call agin," is the re-
Spouse of Sally; and she puts up her knitting
work and goes to bed.
Riding out, one day, in the old chaise with
Sally by his side, Jonathan after going about
three miles without speaking ventured side
glance and, observing that Sally, overcome by
the heat was apparently asleep, he became
venturesome. Her head gently rcclined on one
side, and her pouting red lips were just parted
sufficient to show glimpse Of the pearly gates
within. Jonathan's heart went pit-a-pat. The
temptation was too great. Sally would never
know anything about it; so, leaning toward her,
he stole from those beautiful portals some OF
their nectar. Sally was not "fiummuxed" bit,
and Jonathan ventured again and again, until
she awoke, when, stretching her arms, and Civ
ing yawn, she broke the silence with iona
than, what aire you dom onP"
"Nothing, hardly" responded Jonathan.
81 know you aire, neow for | can tell it Jest
as plain as day.
"Wall, eff you don't like it," says Jonathan
81 guess won't tech you agn."
"Wall, meow" replied Sally, 81 didn't speak
as to that was only thinking how sly YOU was
abeout it, that's ALL"
1t is supposed there was mutual adjustment
OF difficulties 'all reound." There is an amount
of gallantry about Jonathan occasionally, that
challenges admiration; while, at the same time
there is mn "amazing sight" of Calculation
mixed up in the matter, Once upon a time, he
was crossing a toll-bridge in company with hi,
