There are some funny fellows in the
south. One of them writes: In our drug
store | have fellow clerk, somewhat
celebrated among his acquaintances as
a concoctor Of puns and the utterer of dry
Jokes. He is boyish-looking youth, and
ofliciates-when his services are required
behind the soda fountain. A few morn
ings since Acknowledgement poctical
looking young gentleman entered, and
seating himself on stool in front OF the
counter, in very choice selection of terms
requested the clerk to prepare him sed-
lits powder. The following conversation
ridiculous in its earnestness, resulted:
Clerk-With syrup?
% Customer-(slowly and methodically)--
require it not as a refrcshment. Ii
syrup vitiate not the effect of the com
pound, you may iningle with it such an
amount of the substance as will render
the potation palatable. Or, to be better
understood
erk-(nterrupting-I comprehend
you, perfectly. Permit me to assure you
that the tendency of the syrup will be
rather to enchance than diminish the
purgative virtues of the drug. o'
Customer-Gndignant at observing
that his style is affected by the other.

ture and wisdom!5 s ais.itl

preston at the conversation, W staret
in wonder at the parties The clerk ,eyl

stranger triumphantly swallowed, pan

The Effort To Draw Trade from Detroit.

We observe that since the opening Of
the Buffalo and Lake Huron Railway to
Saginaw, the papers of the former city
are paying unusal attention to our Sag
inaw friends. They are industriously
commencing the route, praising with a
tardv Justice the noble valley ofSaginaw,
and asking for a better acquaintance all
around At the recent opening of the
Bancroft House." reporter was present
from Buffalo journal, which publishes a
nearly thee column account, descriptive
of the hotel, and the opening festivities.
This means that Buffalo wants to acquire
portion of the trade of the Sawinaw
valley, of which Detroit can just as well
as not obtain the almost exclusive run,
if she will only act with proper sagacity
and libcrality. It is her duty to help on
all possible railroad connections with the
Saginaw country. Two railroad enter.
prises are now progressing, one toward
Owosso, on the Detroit and Milwaukee,
Railroad, and one to Flint, only a few
miles from the line Of that road; but they
owe just nothing tothc liberality or ell.
couragcment of this city. M .yIiaas id
Detroit can not afford to slumbcr on
and let the trade of this State which
would naturally come here slipaway from
her. The completion of the Detroit and
Milwaukee Railway transit over Lake
Michigan has turned the eyes Of Mil
waukee merchants to the Northwestern
portion Of our State for customers, an,
the effort being fairly made, it is onl,
natural the people of that section shoul'
respond favorably. On the Southerl
Road, Toledo and Chicago obtain larg
part of the trade, and on the western en-,
