Idle Curiosity Cured.

Weems, in his Life of franklin, relates
the following: L...
"On his first trip by land to see his father
in Boston, he was worried almost to death
by the abomnsble inquisitiveness of the
New England tavern keepers. Neither man
nor beast could travel among them with
comfort. No matter how wet or weary, how
hungry or thirsty the poor traveller might
be. be was no. to expect an atom of refresh
ment from the silly publicans until their
mo, t Pestiiero' curiosity was first graf
flied. And then Job himself could not stand
such questions as they would goad him
with; sncE as where he come irom-and
where he might be going-and what re-
ligion he might be of--and if he was mar
ried-and SO on. After being prodigiously
teased this way for several davs, until at
last the bare sight OF public house almost
threw him into an ague, he determined &c
try the following remedy at the very next
tavern. Soon as ne alighted from his horseI
he desired the tavern keeper to collect h:s
whole family, wife, children and servants,
every seul Of them, for he had something
uastly important to communicate. All being
assembled and wondering what he had TO

A Pantaloon Story from Lowell.

An amusing anecdote is related OF one
of the citizens of Spindietown, whom we
will call Mr.. X, that has better half, who
is disposed to 'think the gray mare the bet
ter horse 1t seems that not long since he
entered the shop Of fashionable tailor, and
ordered pair Of pantaloons to be made
from piece of drab cloth. Proceeding
home he informed Mrs. X. of the intended
addition to his wardrobe. She made not
much reply, but put on her things and pro-
ceeded to the shop of the tailor, when the
following dialogue occurred:
Mrs. X.-I believe Mr. X. ordered pair
of panta looms to-day.
Tailor-Yes ma 'am, he did US that honor.
Mrs. XVIII you please lei me look at
the cloth!
The cloth was shown, but madam was
not suited. and after looking at several 9TH
er pieces, ordered the garment TO be made
from. an article several shades darker.
In due time a bundle was left at the
house OF MIR. X, directed to him, and great
was his astonshment on opening it to find
a pair of pantaloons OF different hue from
those which he had ordered. Rushing
down street, and into the tailor's shop, he
thus addressed Mr.. Shears:
Mr.. X-You made mistake about tn ose
panta Icons you sent me.
Tailor-W Wsll--ahem-the truth is, Mrs.
X. called after you had left, aud thought the
ticle you selected was too iiglt, and or
dered Us to make the pantaloons from an
other piece, and We did as she desired.
Mr.. X.-Well when Mrs. Y wants a
pair of pantaloons for herself, hope you
will make tn EN- as she orders; but when
order pair, ] want them made to suit me.
