now sold in San Francisco, and every
evening q fellow on c street, Virginia,
has n little stand near the sidewalk,
beneath n flaming torch, where he
shouts and spins tough yarns like the
Abolition oil " man, and sells Ncloc'-
pede Cement for mending broken
glasses, sugar bowls, cracked heads
and broken hearts. V~clocipcde shoes
have been in fashion down East for
some time, also velocipedc carriers. 1t
this Swallowed to run on much longer
the restaurants will get to having We
locipede hash and pork and beans
on their bill Of fare; indeed, we shall
look to see advertisements OF vcloci-
pcde corn plaster, velocipedc carthartic

yclocipede hobby must be checked or
we shall all be run off he track by It.
