JAMES BOWIE AND HENRY CLAY-Rever-

James or ''Jeemes' Bowie, the inventor of

One day Henry Clay, who had arrived in
Frederick, Maryland, by stage-coach from
Wheeling, met Reverdy Johnson in the
street. ''Reverdy," he said, II have just
had an extraordinary acquaintance back
here at Cumberland. man got half my
seat in the stage-coach-a little snotty,
freckled, cheek-boned fellow-and on the
next seat were man and his wife; ; on the
third seat couple Of big men.
We had no sooner started and got clear
of Cumberland than one of the big men on
the forward seat lit cigar He puffed and
pulled and pufed, till in a little while the
coach was full of strong fumes, and the
woman grew very sick. She asked her hus-

A TOUGH SToRY.-The other evening in
our private crib, " there was learned dis
sertation, subject, ''Bed-bugs and their re-
markable tenacity of life" One asserted
of his own knowledge that they could be
boiled and then come to life. Some had
soaked them for hours in tHrpentine with
out any fatal consequences. Old Hanks,
who had been listening rs an outsider,
here gave in his experience in corrobora-
ton of the facts. Says he: ''Some years
ago, took bed-bug to an iron foundry,
and dropped it into ladle where the mel
ted iron was had it made into skillet

FIVE O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING.
THE ABS sURDITY OF LIFE.

1t is all very we'll for the poets to tell,
BY way of their songs adOrning
Ofmilkmaids, who rouse. to manipulate cows
At five O'Clock in the morning;
And dofmOony young mow'rs who bundle out ofdOor!
The charms of their straw beds scorning,
Before break of day, to make love and hay,
At five O'Clock in the morning!
But, between me and you, it is all untrue,
Believe not a word they utter;
To no milkmaid alive does the figure of Five
Bring beaux-or even bring butter,
The poor cows, If told to arouse,
Would do so, perhaps, in the horntng:
But the country girls, would they show their curls
at five O'Clock in the morning?
1t may not be wrong for the man in the song.
Or the moOn-if anxious to settle,
To kneel in wet grass, and pop, but, alas
What If he popped down on a nettle!
For how could he see what was under his knee,
If, in spite Of my friendly warning,
He went out of bed, and his house, and his head,
At FIVE O'Clock in the morning?
1t is all very well such stories to tell,
But If were a maid all ferlorning,
And lover should drop In the clover to pop,
At five O'Clock in the morning;
i'll liked him. you see, I'd say; Please call at three >
Ifn0t, I'd turn him out with a scorning;
Don't come here you fiat with conundrums like that
AT five O'Clock in the morning!'

AFACT FULL OF MEANING. Here is the
finest hit we have seen at the present popu-
lar distinction between religion and NOR
ais:
In religious excitement in Boston, a
person met Christian neighbor who took
him by the hand, and said
81 have become a christian. ~
''You are christian, then, all at once, ~
said the other; ''you profess to act strictly
ON christian principles. I am glad of it,
I congratulate you. Suppose we nowhave
a settlement of our little accounts between
us. Pay me what thou owest."
'No, said the newborn child, turning
on his heel, religion is religion, and bust
ness is business.
So the paper tells us. And what is there
so wonderful aboutit? Is not the world
full of such christianity?

me for ~ 'Oh, 'causa yop take her to con-

saw them by their wintry ure,
The children gathering round their sire;
The cheerful blaze, with fickering light,
Rov'd dancing DER their features bright,
And nought like care for pomp or show
Commingled with that ruddy glow;
Their simple fare was what the land
Yields to the farmers toiling hand;
While health and sweet eontentment's grace
Beamed forth from every form and face.
But some they are, unwisely led
BY sloth. TO eat another's bread,
Injured to bear, like flaming chart,
Dependence, written on their heart.
To envious eyes, perchanee, they seem
In luxury and pride to dream
Yet meet they still, with lot unbest,
The welcome cold Ofburdening guest,
And view the humble home with seorn
Which industry and love adorn.
