Keep your Little Brother out Of
the Room.

John Snith--you've heard of him
is very bashful; is too bashiul in truth.
ii was born and raised in the country
His father gave him good education,
and allows him plenty Of money. But
John, with all other attachments, never
could accustom himself to the society of
females, not because he did not like the
girls, but because his shy nature would
not permit him to associate with the fair
Sex. 1t once happened--not very long
ago cither-that John father had some
very important business to transact in
the city. He also had some very par
ticular affairs to attend to at home, which
demanded his personal attention, and not
possessing the power Of ubiquity, he
delegated his son John to transact that
in the city.
John being thus commissioned, ini-
mediately proceeded to the city, and to
the residence of his fathers old friend
whom he found to be very nice old
gentleman. with beautiful daughter,
and gold spectaclcs.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nov 5.-Andy johnson,
who still clings to Nashville has extended an
invitation to the legislature which was am
nounced in that body yesterday, asking the
members to banquet to be given at the Stacy
House to night. Following on the heels of his
defeat, this show OF hospitality has puzzled the
quidnuncs, and the question now is what does
it all mean? A few sages, with an extraordinary
air of wisdom, mysteriousy hint that Senator
Brownlow will have returned to his long home
before many months, although the very latest
advices from Knoxville represent the Parson in
tolerably good health and, preparing to start for
Washington.
The Constitutional Convention Bill
is not going to glide through the Senate in its
