NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. MORNING, J,


Many, years ago, in what is now a.
Aourishing city, lived stalwart black
smith, fond Of his pipe and Joke. He
was also fond of his blooming daughter,
whosednanyy Igraces had ensnared the
affections :. of, A. young printer. The.
couple after a season of billing and COO
ing, s'engaged themselves, and nothing,
but the consent Of the young 1ady's pa
rents prevented their union To obtain
this, an interviewswas arranged, and the
typo prepared AIN little ., speech to-
admonish and convince the . old
man. who sat enjoying his pipe in
perfect content. The t ypo dilated on
the fact of their long friendship, their
mutual attachment, their hopes for the
future, and, like topics; and taking the,
daughter by the hand, said: 81 am now, ;,
sir, come to ask, your permission to
transplant this lovely flower from its
parental u bed"-but his feelings tovera
came him, and be forgot the remainder
of his oratorical flourish, stammered,
and finally wound up with, "from its
parentalcbed into ms Town. The father
keenly relished this discontinue of the
suitor, and removing his pipe and blow
ing ascloud, he replied: s'WelL young
man, i don't know as 1 have any objec-
tion, provided you marry the girl first"
