az A young lady, residing in Meods-
Vile. Pennsylvania, became enamored of a
fascinating wearer of trowsers, and desir-
ing that he should look upon her with
loving eyes, she procured some "love pow
ders." and watching favorable opportu-
nifty, mixed up the powders with the ra-
tions of the youth whom she had fixed her
gushing affections upon, and odlmiy awaited
the result. Instead OF talking Romeo and
Claude Mclnotte, 'fnir lady" 'ilngel Of my
SOUL" 'star of my existence" &C.. &c, the
contrary cuss began TO grow sick, and con-
tinuing to get no better very fast, the gen
tie Desdemona became frightened. A doe
tor came, and added to the enjoyment of
the couple by telling them that the love
powders had "pizencdp the young man.
After long and harassing struggle the
youth got better, and now actually threat
ems TO institute suit against the young
damsel for damages sustained by him lie
could do better than that-marry the girl,
and then feed her on diluted love powders.

EXCESSIVE TAIKING.-Some Frenchman
of a statistical turn OF mind, who evidently
has but little to do, publishes in lIaYro
paper some curious statistics of the average
talk of men and women. lie has discovered
that an ordinary middle-agcd man spends
three hours per day in conversation, calcu-
lated at the rate of one hundred words per
minute, or twenty octave pages per
hour, which would amonnt to six hundred
pages per week, or flftytwo big volumes
per year. Having ascertained these facts
rs regards the masculine portion of the hui
man race, the statistician applied his best
energies to ascertain the amount of words
uttered by an ordinary aud middle-aged
female per minute, and the amount of time
spent on the average by that sex In general
conversation. After the most patient in
vestigatiOn and abstrusc calculation, this
able arithmetlcian was compelled to give
up the question, and confess the magnitude
of the figures produced even at the outset
of the inquiry bailled all human calcula-
ton.
