Burned a Hole in his Shirt.

The following is taken from real life,
having occurred at Porter's Hotel, North
Cambridge, Massachusetts:
Joe, the man Of all work about the
Hotel, was fond Of good liquor, or, in-
deed, liquor CT any kind; and being gen.
orally short of funds, was in the habit OF
Selling on all remnants of liquor left by
practitioners at the bar. Thus matters
progressed for some years, until one day
when Porter having occasion to cure a
diseased boot, had need of some nitric
acid, or aquafortis, that article being
one of the ingredients Of the solution
Taking common bar tumbler and pour
ing sufficient quantity of acid into it he
went out, leaving the tumbler on the
counter, and drover, the sole occupant
of the bar-room. He had no sooner
passed the door than in came Joe, and
seeing, as he thought tumbIer, as usu-
al, with some liquor too good to be vast
ed, Immediately looked through the bot
tom, 'as was the usual CUSTOM" and
quickly threw himself outside of said liz
uor. He then went to ehopping wood,
smacking bis lips at the unusual strength
of the spirit. Shortly after, old Zach
coming in. picked up the tumbler to GO
on with bis medical preparation, but was
surprised on finding it empty. Inquired
of the traveller, he was informed that q
short, chunky map describing JOEY had
drank it.
With an exclamation of surprise and
CONSERVATION depicted on bis countenance,
he rushed out of the room in search Of
Joe, expecting to find bis dead body not
far off. He passed around tho house
and in the back yard he found Joe doing
extra execution on the logs, working rs
he generally did when he had on an ex
ira amount of steam. After getting over
bis astonishment, this conversation tool
place:
Old Zach.-Joc, did you drink tina
stuff on the counter?"
Joe--Why, yes, l thought it hadn'
out to be wasted, you know. All right
Ispose!
Old Zach.--I don't know. How d.
you like it! how do you feel it
Jse.-Feel? feel first rate, lively a
q cricket.
Old Zach.-Well, Joe, but haven't yo'
noticed anything out of the way-noth
ing wrong about yous
Joe.-Anything wronga Well no
not much; first rate liquor; takes goo'
hold goes further than common. Their
is only one thing queer, about which
can't get the hang on, (there he drew hi
sleeves under his nose,) aoheneUer
scipe mig mouth, I6urn a hole an m.
shirt sleeves.

j. ID. Ikeymert.

J. D. Reymert has Ieen nominated by
the democracy of the Second District as
their candidate for Congress. Reymert
was on the free soil electoral ticket in
l84s, and for several years was zeal
Gus freedom sirieker. But it did not
pay. and Barstowism did, and Mr.. Rey-
inert became Jealous Barstow democrat.
His course has since naturally been down
ward until he became an office holder
under Buchanan and finally has reached
the depth ofbeing democratic candid
ate for congress. Which one of the
broken wings Of the democracy he be-
longs to we are not aware. His associa-
tons would naturally incline him to
Douglas, while his Office would lead him
to Berckini idge. Probably he occupies
q position between the two wings, and
helps to make up the tail of the great
democratic body. We suspect probably
inasmuch as no one expects he will come
within 10000 of an election, his nomi-
nation is a stop to the Breckinridgers.
We are sorry Hanchett will have
nothing to do in that district, except send
round for his certificate after election

BEAUTY.-We find beauty itself q
very poor thing unless beautified by SEN
timent. The reader may take the con-
fession rs he chooses, either as an instance
of an abundance ofsentilnent on our part,
or as an evidence of want of proper ar
dor and impartiality but we cannot land
that is the plain truth) think the most
beautiful creature beautiful. or be at all
affected by her, or long to sit next her,
or to 60 to theatre with her, or listen to
concert with her, or walk in field or
forest with her, or :ell her by her Chris
tan name. or ask her if she likos history,
or pin with any sat;sfaction) her gown
for her, or take her arm even into din
ing room, or Kiss her at Christmas, or on
an April fool day, or May day, or dream
of her, or wake thinking Of her: or feel q
want in the room when she is gone, or a
pleasure the moment when sic appears,
unless she has heart as well as face,
and is proper, good-tempered, natural,
sincere, honest girl, who has love for
other people and other things, apart from
self reverence and wish to be admired.
Her face would pail upon us in the course
of week or even become disagreeable.
We should prefer an enamelled tea-cup,
for We should expect nothing from it,
