"THE MAYOR WANTS TO SEE THEA
young man, nephew, had been to sea,
and on his return was narrating to his
uncle an adventure which he had met on

'REroRT COURTEOUS AS our townsman,
Mr.. Frederick Douglass, a day or two since,
was passing one of the drinking shops where
our fast and would-be fashionable young
men do most congregate,' he was greeted
by one of their number in tone of affected
politeness, with the remark: 'Halloa, Fred
come in, and take drink
Mr. Douglass, with his characteristic
suavity of address begged the gent to ex-
cuse him, as he was strict temperance
man-in fact, he had been for many years
a teetotaller.'
But the 'prodigal was not disposed to let
him off without modification or insult, and
with affected surprise and disappointment,
he replied: why, | just had drink with
"Nigger Pete"
THAT is all very proper answered Mr..
Douglass, '"Pete' and yourself are on a
level of eaquIity. 1 cannot accept your
invitation
Just at that instant the tlashy vest-pat-
tern seemed to be reminded of a pressing
errand up town, and very abruptly walked
off, wearing solemn expression. Fred.
assumed his accustomed quiet smile, and
his gigantic but unpretending stride.
The force of the retort will be appre-
hended, when it is explained that Mr..
Douglass and Pete occupy extreme and
antipode positions in the spheres of social
intercourse and intellectually Rochester

AVERDANT GRooMsMAN.-On no occasion
do people seem to commit more blunders
that at wedding. The following funny
incident actually happened in a neighbor-
ing town. In the midst of witnesses the
clergyman had just completed the interest
ing ceremony which binds, in the silver
bonds of wedlock, two willing hearts, and
stretched out his hands to implore the
blessing Of heaven on the union. At this
point, the groomsman seeing the open
hands stretched out, supposed it was a
signal for him to surrender the marriage
fee, which was burning in his pocket. Ae-
cordingly, just as the clergyman was about
to close his eyes in prayer, he felt the
pressure of two sweet half dollars upon his
palms. The good man hesitated, appalled,
by the ludicrousness of his situation, but
coolly depositing the money in his pocket,
proceeded with his devotions.
