This Side Up,

We saw Jake mailing up box, the
other day containing some articles
which heintended to send by express.
From the nature of the contents it was
essential that the box should not be
inverted on the passage, so We ven
tured the suggestion to Jake to place
the much abused ''This side up, " etc.,
eonspieuously upon the cover. A few
days, after, we saw Jake. Heard
from your goods, Jake? Did they GO
all safely ?' Every one broke, . re-
piled Jake suddenly. Lost the hull

Did you put this side up, as we
told you pa ''Yes, / did, and. fur fear
they should'n see it on the kiver, I
put It on the bottom too-eonfound

Suabian warriors in those days were
peculiar old fellows, and, l rather
think, with all their curious traits,
were disposed to become little boozy
once in a while. for in the cellar, is
still preserved the monstrous vessel in
which, according to the sayings, the
old chaps were wont to keep on hand
a not very modest quantity of wine,
perhaps only for the stOmach's sake,
if not to make their faces shine. 1t

PLEASANT SURROUNDINGS, ETC.
But for the advantages of its Uni
versity, the beauty of its surround
ings, and the salubrity of its climate,
Leubingen would not be selected by
the enterprising stranger of the pres
ent age as a pleasant place in which
to stay.
1t does not, think, lay claim to
being the most cleanly place in the
world. In the old part of the town.
the COW and the horse, the chickens
and the ducks share quarters with
their owners, the former occupying
the lower, the latter the upper part of
the house; nor do the narroWness and
abruptness of many of the streets con-
tribute much to its redemption in this
respect; for they run up to such steep
points, in many places, that the pc
destrian often finds himselfalmost tIn-
consciously rapidly descending fifty
and even an hundred feet into the
street below, by means of regular
flights of steps, and so the gdSchen
continue to run and wind all over the
little Stadt, which in rainy weather
has the additional privilege of being
finely muddy. But where these de-
fects, there are often compensations.
and these are supplied. in part at
least, by the surrounding mountains
and the hills on which the town is
