Literal Answers.

A LADY noticed boy sprinkling salt on
the sidewalk to take Off the ice, and re-
marked to a friend, pointing to the
SALT
"Now, that's benevolence."
"No it amt" said the boy, somewhat
indignant, it's salt"
So when lady asked her servant girl
if the hired man cleaned off the snow
with alacrity, she replied:
No n.a'an, he used a shovel"
The same literal turn of mind which
we have been illustrating is sometimes
used Intentionally and perhaps little
malic ously, and thus becomes the proper
ty of wit instead of plumbers. Thus we
hear of very polite and impressive
gentleman who said to a youth in the
street:
"Boy, may inquire where Robinson's
drug store is ?"
"Certair,y, sir" replied the boy, very
respectfully.
"Wen, Sir" said the gentleman, after
waiting awhile, "where is it ~
Il have not the least idea. yer honor"
said the urchin.
There was another boy who was &C.
costed by an ascetic middle-aged lady,
with:
boy, want to go to Dover street."
"Well, ma'am," said the boy, "why
don't you go then?'
One day, at Lake George, party of
gentlemen trolling among the beautiful
islands on the lake, with bad luck, espied
a lutte fellow with red shirt and straw
hat, dangling a line over the side of a
boat.
"IIallo, boy" said one of them, "what
are you doing?"
Fishing" came the answer.
"Well, Of course said the gentleman,
but what do you catch -
Fish, you fool; what do you s'pose"
odd any of you ever see an elephants
skin ?" inquired teacher of an infant
class
81 have" exclaimed one.
"Where Z" asked the teacher.
con the elephant" said the boy, laugh
ing.
Sometimes this sort Of wit degenerates
or rises, as the case may be, into pun
ming, as when Flora pointed pensively to
the heavy masses of clouds in the sky,
saying:
81 wonder where those clouds are GO
ing;' and hcr brother replied
Il think they are going to thunder"
Also the following dialogue
Halo, there how do you sell your
wood?"
"By the cord"
GLOW long has il been cut?"
Pour feet"
az mean how long has it been since you
cut it,"
"No longer than it is now"
And also when Patrick O'Flynn was
seen with his collar and his bosom sadly
begrimed, and was Indignantly asked by
his officer:
"Patrick O'Flynnl how long do you
wear a shirt ?"
"Twenty eight inches, sir"
This reminds me of al instance which il
said to have occurred recently in Chatham
street, New York, where a countrym man
was clamorously besieged by shop
keeper
"Bave you any fine shirts?" said the
countTyman.
"a splendid assortment. Step in, sir
Every price and every style. The cheap
est in the market, sir"
Are they clean? %
To be sure, sir"
"Then," said the countryman, with
great gravity, you had betterput on one,
for you need it,"

SCHOLASTIC BRoKERS.--We understand that
Ger ain dealers in the salaries of the school
teachers, who fiourished under the auspices
of the late Board of Directors, probably
disliking to leave the scene Of former gains,
are still itiDerating about. probably in
search of prey in the schools-particuiarly
the higher departments. 1t would be well
for these Shylocks to conclude that their
best way would be, like their former asso-
ciate directors of better manners, to stay
outside the school precincts, and turn their
feet in other directions.
The teachers in general have suffered so
much in heavy discounts of their salaries, at
the hands of the ''cent per cent genus, that
they would prefer to have to view them
through the largest sized telescope. 1t Is
hoped that it will not be necessary to De
more particular in details either as to per-
sons or as to certain specimen transactions
of a sharp financial nature, which more than
one of the soreIy mulcted teachers might
testify to. But it would be well for the par
ties to whom we have alluded to make them
aelyes scarce in future about the public
schools, until by some untoward and regret
table circumstance they can officially visit
the schools, for the real benefit OF which
thew would not contribute the smallest frac'
ton of their big gains from the school en-
plOyes.
