The Stranger Nonplussed.

Among The restaurants in Philadelphia. is
one kept by ex-coroner Joseph Delayan,-
| Coroner Deavan is a pattern Of amiability,
| with degree of tonnage growing more and
more remarkable. a few days ago agentle-
man entered the house and called for r dozen
reed birds and pint of claret. While dis
cussing the delca les, he tou chel the bell,
aud requ sted Mr. Delavan sent to him. Mr.
| d requested the stranger to take u seat, and
| in few moments the twain were chatting as
costly as though they had been raised togather
| from childhood.
"By The way, Coroner" is still so call
| ed-a ked the strang r." the last time | wa,
in here you had fuss with somebody pray
what caused il p
"A chap contracted bill for So. so and
than refused to pay up"
"And what did you do with him ?"
"Chucked him oul doors"
"Is that all 2"
"Yvs-goiag to law don't paw. To have
obtained twenty shiling'' worth Of law would
have cost twenty dollars worth of time"
"Thal, when a man swindlcs you, you
merely chuck him out"
"That's all "
"Wel, what kinds of wine have you ~
GAS good an article of Ilridsick as is now
extant. Would YOU like to lry a bottle ?"
"On one condition, and hs. is that you
will in me in drinking it,
"With pleasure, sir" ~
Agin the bell iOgled, again the white
aproud dukey dsspp p9ared down he cellar
way, and moment after the black bottle,
with lis silver neck-tie, ood before the all -
Bile strrnger. Its contents were duly iced
and disposed of, when the Coroner begged to
be excused in ord y to attend 10 SONG Gus
toners who were waiting f,r him in front,
The stranger shortly atCcrward, Fl iShed his
reed birds, anl emerged from his dinner. box.
He confronted the Coroner within few feet
of the front do)r..
Mr.. Della, an, your reed birds were co k
ed to turn, and as for your Held sick, a finer
article never crossed the Atlantic" ."
Happy to hear you say o, sir, replied
the CoroCer.
GAS a.memento of The repsst, have a
slight favor to ask"
"Namc it sir"
"Chuck me ou.."
"What 2"
"Chuck me out"
"You don't mean 10 say you are swindcr?"
II uOn mean any lhluS elst' hHFu
nickel. and if you want pay for those reed
birds, you must take it as you did the other
/ day-chuck me out"
This was too much for the Coroner.
The stranger wore bran new hat fresh
and glossy from the hatter's.
The Coroner made dash, took the shyster
by the necktie, removed his castor wihou,
rufIling hair of the knap passed castor over
to the bar-keeper, and then walked back as
cooIly as though nothing hal happened
The stranger was a good deal nonpussed,
but being caught 10 his own trap, could say
nothing. That he was penniless was shown
by the fact that he walked away bareheaded
Il That he never came back for the castor Ia
pretty good proof that he raised one somwhere
4 else. Who or where he is nobody TO make a
world, this little incident. howeyr, should
leave no one nnsatsfed.

I given notice to their employees that their sit

Which city doom was thought
Beyond tao power Of patriot means
Ere the glorious Eigth was fought;
But when | saw the stripes and stars
The British lion bow,
little thought ~ my grateful prayers,
To be called a tra4or now.
No pelican flag was heard of then
No moons lone star was found
No palmetto bush, with its shaggy stem,
And the serpent coilcd around;
But the stars and stripes alone remained,
Aud pray can YOU tell me how,
That he, who bore that flag unstaned,
Can bo called n traitor now
oh, had remained in my native State,
Where my chieftoin'S grave is made,
Or had been doomed to similar mte,
And my bones near his kcen laid
Or had he been spared for his country good,
am sure he'd not allow
Those friends who in arms hv him had stood,
Should be branded as traitors nov.
But why in my age, am thus assaed?
TO my nam, why apply this stain?
Have tn Icy country ever failed,
Or to society proved bane?
Mol such charge or kindred crime
Can be stamped on my rurrowcd brow
But because rebellion must decline,
They call me traitor now.
But yet in my heart | don't despair

Whose tolls and triumphs helped " share
For ages will yet endure.
When madmon cease and calm react
And reason their minds endow,

That make me traitor now.
