Leisure Hours-It was a beautiful Oh
servation of the late William Hazlitt,
that "there is room enough in human
life to crowd almost every art and sci
encc in it. If we pass no day without a
line--visit no place without the compa-
ny of books-we may without ease fill
Libraries or empty them of their con-
tents. The more We do, the moro we
can do the more busy We are, the moro
leisure we have"

A Sunday School teacher asked a lit
tie girl who was the first man. She
answered that she didn't know. The
question was then put to an Irish girl,
who answered "Adam, sir" with appa-
rent satisfaction. "La! !" said the first
child, "you needn't feel so grand about
it-he wasn't an Irishman !"

A CHARACTERISTIC Muss.

There was another disturbance to-day,
in the disreputabe pile Of old rookeries at
the corner of Washington avenue and
ThirtccLth street. A Miss White, hard
faced, fou-mouthcd creature, dropped in
upon Mrs. Moran, alias Mrs. Rcdman, alias
Mrs. Rcdington, in search Of her mother,
who was Somewhere, drunk. While ex-
tending inquiries us to the whereabouts of
her "mn,' she conceived II necessary to
call Mrs. Moran "slut,' and other names
too foul to repeat here. II soon became
evident that Miss White wanted q fight
quite as earnestly as she did her mother, and
Mrs. Moran, nothing 10th, seized u hickory
bludgeon and accommodated her. With
blood streaming from nor head, Miss. w.
was conveyed to her own room, and thence
before squire Shannessy. Mrs. Moran
and old Mrs. White were soon brought in,
and the trial commenced. One witness
testified to the facts above stated, and was
informed by the sore-headed Miss w. that
she had ''sworc ~ the d----cst lie she ever
uttered
The Squire proceeded to inform Mrs.
Moran that her house was a nuisance; that
blacks and whites consorted there, and in.
dulged in orgies that were disgraceful to
humanity; that the evidence was against
her, and he should fine. her slj and the
trimmings.
Mrs. Moran replied that she would ",ake
an appeal to Squire Bros, and make the
Squire prove what he had said, before
grand jury"
Old Mrs. White being present, beastly
drunk, was fined IS and accompanied
Mrs Moran tothc:calaboose where II would
pay the community, and especially the
residents of Mrs Moran's neighborhood,
10 board them permanently.
