or cour.e tue whole innumerable host OF puns,
bad and good, which are floating about in books
and newspapers, as we'll as in social circles, are
all predioated upon similarities in pronunciation
nun that has in IL sharp and witty meaning

and Of Tar. fetched constructions that are put IN
circulation by laborers after the fun, which is
worth nothing il it ia not spontaneous, has given
this kind Of literature bad reputation, so that
few good authors will use it.

Poets have been often greatly puzzled to find
rhymes for particular words. It is said that
there is no word in the English language which
fairly rhymes with " step or " mouth" Byron
SAYS that ii is impossible to End rhyme for the
word silver" Every little while some inqui-
sitiye genius proclaims that particular word is
without q rhyme, and challenges the world to
disprove his assertion. Forthwith many people
oud0el their brains, and sometimes do produce
the desired word. Some years ago the knieker
booker offered brass quarter dollar to the per-
son who could find rhyme TO the word twin
dow" The prize was earned by the following
effort. which furnishes the rhyme, and has some
fun in il as well
cruel man beetle caught,
Aud TO the wall him pinned oh
Then said the beetle to the crowd,
Though I'm stuck up am mot proud,
And his soul went out at the window.
Somebody challenged q rhyme for "csrpet,
and the following was the best production elicit

Sweet maid Of the inn,
IT'S sure no sin
To toast such beautiful bar pet,
believe me, my dear, ..
Your feet won 4 appear
At home on a noblemans carpet.
A line ending with " harp it" also came uer

remarkable instance Of the preservation Of

hayn, in Saxony, On the 9Th Of December last
two brother, named Muschter, were engaged in
digging deep well, when the earth fell in and
completely buried them. A third brother went

the slightest sound. Some miners were then set
10 work, and dug for some days, but without
SUCCESS; and 1t was SO generally believed that
the poor fellows could not possibly be alive,
that orders bad been given that, unless the re
laiives insisted on proceeding further, the well
should be filed up, and monument to the
N nory of the Muechters erected over il. Eight
days had already elapsed since the accident, but
the mother of the entombed would not give up
all hope, and some fresh hands began TO work
again, though only in the expectation of finding
tie corpses. To their establishment, however,
they suddenly heard from below the words, Do
not strike so hard" conversation commenced,
the work was pushed forward with renewed
diligence, and at length crowned with success.
On the 10th of December, after they had beer
eleven days and four hours in this living grave
the two Muscbiers were rescued and brought tt
