JOSH BILLINGS IN THE EDIroR's
CHAIR.-His answer to correspondents.
Fred-Yew amt obliged to ask the
girls mother if you may 60 home with
her from party; get the girls indorse-
lnent. and go in; it is proper to ask her to
take your arm but you have no right to
put your arm around her waist unless
you meet bear On the road, and then
you are supposed to relinquish your hold
as soon rs the bear gets safely by.
Whip-You are right; mules live to q
lonely age; hav known them myself
TO live one hundred years, and then not
half try. You are also right about their
being sure footed; l hav known them to
kick boy twice in second, ten feet off
Gertrude-Your inquiry stumps me.
The more l think about it, the more |
can't tell. AS near as | can recolect
now, ] think l don't know. Much mite
be said both ways; neither may be jist
right. Upon tho whole, think that L
would or wouldn't just as l think best or
otherwise.
Plutarch-You're mistaken; the Sha-
kers don't marry. If young Shakers
fall in love, they are set to weedin' on
i,ns, which cures them forthwithy. l
can't tell you how much it takes to join
the Shakers, but believe the expense
used 10 be, including having your hair
cut and learning to dance, about sixty
/ five dollars.

General Pleasanton used to tell an
amusing little Indian story. He was
once, while stationed at frontier post,
quite surrounded by threatening bands of
Cheyennes. He wished very much to
negotiate treaty with the chiefs, but
they were too suspicious or hostile to
place themselves in his power. At last
he succeeded in capturing young Indian
of rank, whom he held as hostage. One
day this captive, sullenly stalking about
