A GocD BARGAN.-A good story is
told ola Vermont farmer, who had a
dog TO sell, but who set an excessive value
on the animal according to his neighbours
views. His price was one hundred dol
lars He was frequently offered thirty
and thirty-ilve dollars, which he refused,
and always assured his friends be would
get his price for the dog.
One day he returned from a journey,
and Immediately proclaimed that he had
sold his dog for one hundred dollors.
"Ah!" said his neighbour did you
get cash ?"
"No," said the farmer ''not exactly
cash, but what is equivalent
"Well, what did you get 2" persisted
the friend.
"Why, I got two ffty dollar dogs"

The LENGTH OF a CALL.-A conven-
ton might be held to decide upon the
length of a call-how much etiquette
requires to be made, and how much good
Judgment shall withhold. Emerson thinks
that friendly calls should be strictly im-
tied to ten minutes. Those that are not
friendly but merely designed to dawdle
away an hour in frivolous conversation,
could be dispensed with altogether Calls
upon editors should not exceed five min
utes in length unless you are particularly
requested to stay longer.

John, bound the State of Matrimony z
The State of Matrimony is bounded
on the North by Solitude, on the East by
Double trouble, on the South by Sore
shins, on tho West by Vexation'
what are Its chief products 2
Peevish babies, scolding wives, hem
pecked husbands, smoked coffee, burnt
hams, and sour pies!
What is said of its climate I!
1t has more varied temperature than
any other state in existence. In that por-
tion Of it called the Honeymoon, the eli
mate is salubrious and healthy-the at
mosphore laden with the sweets of flowers
of Hymen. In some parts the inhabitants
experience freezing cold reception when
they expect more warmth, and in some
other parts there is all the burning sensa-
tion Of the iorrid zone Sometimes a
fellows house in the State of Matrimony,
gets too hot to hold him, and strange to
say, he travels with all speed, not to, but
from the poles, where coal Is generally
supposed to exist

and when | return I'll answer the ques-
tion.'
Well, s rah, as you seem to be igno-
rant in geography, will examine you in
grammar. Take the sentence, marriage
is civil contract Parse marriage
Marriage is noun, because it's
name. And though Shakespeare asks
what's in a name, and says that a rose by
any other name would smell as sweet, yet
marriage being a noun, and, therefore,
name, shows that the rule established by
the bard of Avon has at least one excep-
tion. For marriage certainly is of very
great Importance, and being noun, and
therefore a name, ergo, there is something
in Il name
Good Well, what is the case of
marriage 2
Don't know, SIR
Decline it, and see

Jane, can you tell Sarah in what case
marriage is ?
les, sir, it's very common case, and
| would not care if it were little COM
moner. And l suppose Sarah won't be

case
Can you decline marriage?
Jane blushed extremely, and answered:
Had rather not, SIR
well, Sarah, what person is mar

Second person, sir, because the person
you speak to is one who is going to

'What number is marriage!'

the parson ties the knot, marriage will be
singular, because the Bible says that twain
shalt be one flesh
What gender is marriage2'
Common gender, because either male
or female may get married.
docs marriage govern anything, or
does it agree with some things?'
Both, sir 1t governs both mankind
and womankind, and as to agreeing, it
agrees with the world, and the rest of
mankind
