say- Gas is plenty and cheap.-.Standard.
Yes; so long the editor of the Standard
is in the neighborhood.
na- We were addressing the Democracy
Standard.
And the People have been a dressing them.
Ea~ 4dmuable-The police arrangement on
the Fair ground.-Standard
It's great wonder, then, that the editor of
the Standard escaped without being arrested.
6s- Candid-ain't we ?-!Standard
Well; you are either candid, canine or can
crime, and, for the life of US, we can't tell
which.
BeA- The 'deduction" is quite as cents-less
the something else"-Standdrd
We suppose that is the reason you are so
dolor-ous about it.
rA- "Whist the lamp holds out to burn,
The vilest sinner may return."-Standard
"And if get there before you do,
I'll tell them there's no hope for you"
-Bitter,.
sS- A young lady out West is charged
wi tn putting ars.-Biair Co. Whig
She ought to dis charge herself by putting
them off
res- We notice that, at the Blair County
Fair, lady took the premium for the best
Pickles. Where the deuce was our neighbor
of the Standard? He should have had that
premium.
ENA. Singular-That we have not been fa-
yored, by some of our opposition friends, with
''free pass" up 'sye salt."-.Standard
Pity. You had better take aye salt(s)" and
thus favor yourself with 'free pass"
ns- Men are apt to judge the success of
others, by the success with which they them
selves have met in the same line.-Standard
We suppose this is the standard by which
you judged us, when you perpetrated that
dreadful pun about something else"
sss- The Providence Journal speaks of
"girls bursting into womanhood." Where
upon Bitters wonders if there is not such a thing
as ''boys bursting into manhood" Strange fel-
low, that Bittersl We suppose he has seen
some boys ''on burst lately.
FsA. The Standard wishes to know the diff
ference between ''eating the Devil and sucking
his broth 2'
If the editor of the Standard were as much
of broth-sucker as he is a rum-sucker, he
would know the difference" without asking
saa- Small potatoes are always sound, and
sometimes hard to digest. Don't you find
them so ?-Standard
Well, really we have had no experience in
the business. We have always eschewed ev-
erything of fiat-ulent nature.
nsa. Non est-The Alleghanan last week.
What's wrong 2-Standard.
For particulars see another column. By
the way, neighbor, are rather fattered by
the fact that you noticed our non appearance
last week. 1t would seem that, Though ABB
sent, We are still not forgotten"
Bas- Pickles suggests that the "Rooue,s
Dictionary will be valuable addition to some
of the law libraries of the dav.
would be work of supererogation to add
such volume to the lie-brary of the Standard
editor.
nsA- Our 'tdevil' woke up the other morn
ing and was astonished to see bed-bug sit
ting on the back of a chair.-Biair Co. Whig.
Damphool says, if your ''devil' has any Gu
riosity TO see a hum-bug sitting on the top of
chair, he would advise him to peep into the
Wing sanctum some morning when the editor
is writing leader.
H2T We are inclined to think that he (Pick-
les) is more than half right.-Standard
We are inclined to think that the Editor of
the Standard is not more than half right-Al-
teghdniaa.
Admitting the correctness of your estimate,
we still have whole half the advantage of
you.-Standard.
Certainly; but your advantage consists in
the fact that you have the crazy half.
