\ Man OF MANY CALLINGs.-On the 9TH
day OF February of the present year, at the
village of Willingham, near Gainsboro,' Eng
land, died one Abraham Toon, q man ot SIN
gular character and eccentric habits, and
who IN the course of chequered existence,
practlsed at one time or another such varie-
ty of trades and professions that the title
given TO this notice is truly applicable to him,
AS the following summary will show: He was
a blacksmith. veterinary surgeon, dentist.
phlebutomist, parish clerk, sexton, clock and
matchmaker and cleaner, musician. turner,
architect. engineer, singer. farmer, cutler,
dental instrument maker, making his own
keys for extracting teeth, joiner, cabinet
maker, locksmith, whitesmith, gun-smith.
plumber, tinman and brazier millwrlght.
and deputy registrar He was at one time
an almost indispensable guest at the village
christenings and junketings; his quaint Jests
and merry songs, exciting the risibility of
the company, making the old forget their
trouble (pro tenn and causing the young TO
rejoice AS death spareth no one, after hay
ing given our old friend fair warning that he
was wanted" in the shape of long sickness
he cut the chord of mortal existence, and at
the age OF fifty two years called him that
bourne from whence no traveller returns
Tom CoRwIN AND THE BrLL-TERRlER.--
While Tom Corwin was addressing large
meeting at Springfield. Ohio. not long since,
and was soaring into the higher regions OF
political eloquence. black middle sized,
and morose-looking bull-terrler mounted the
platform, and taking his place beside the
speaker, surveyed the assembled sovereigps
with severe countenance and u melancholy
wag Of his caudai stump. His debut was
greeted with roars of laugb gbter. and Tom Cor
win paused in the middle Of SENTENCE
Turning toward the intruding animal, he
waved his hand courtecusly, saying, Come,
one at time if you please" The terrier
retired few PAGES and glanced qnizzically
at the speaker, when Corwin advanced to
the edge Of the stand and said to the people,
in very confidential tone, Il do believe he
intends to leave the other dogs and join the
Republican party" This palpable hit was
received with a tempest Of laughter and ap-
pause, in the midst Of which his dogship
trotted out Of ,he hall with his tail at an an
gle Of intense disgust.
