PoLITENEss.-Human nature Ia the same
the world over. People are just as polite
here as in Boston, where, according to the
Post, they have it bad. The height of po-:
Hteness was exemplified yesterday in one
of our streets. A gentleman had his hat
which was lustrous in newness and model
in shape-knocked off by lady, and then
run over by an express wagon. The gen.
tleman at once. addressed the lady in an
apologetic manner and hoped it had put her
to no Inconvenience. She presented him
with pair Of daggers-from her eyes-and
an ugly "ugh," and passed rapidly on.

iHUNKI-DoRI.-Our highly ornamental
and distinguished fellow-citizen, A. Miner
Griswold, or .Gris," as the .F. L. G.'s'
call him, or "Hunki-Dori," as the ladies
say, or the "Fat Contributor" as the papers
have it, called on rs yesterday, on his re-
turn trip from Delaware. He expressed
himself much pleased with his treatment
at the hands OF the warriors of the Della
ware tribe. and believes that they are the
friend of the pale face. Gas Girls. said this
his nose blushed until it was purple.) He
goeth hence to Dunkirk, thence to the in
terror of New York, whence he will return
to Cincinnati In about two weeks. All this
time he goeth about, like Jolly old Good
Samaritan, feeding the people on Iujin
meal.
