MODERN PAGAGRAPiElNG.

That was bitter joke Of the man In
New Jersey who put quantity ofjslup in
some beer bis friend was about to drink.
The funeral was very generally attended. =
Exchange.
We don't know who originated the above
manner Of stating q fatal occurrence, but it
seems to be quito generally followed by
newspaper paragraphe:s. 1t is delicious
way Of putting it, and reads much better
than when one says '.he died amid the most
horrible and excruciaiing agonies." We
get the whole story and our sensibiitiss are
not unnecessarily shocked.
The new style of parasraphiug affords
Gne field for tho exercise of ingenuity in
conveying the intelligence that the man died.
Variety, fre.hness, and cheerful, not to
say facetious vivacity might be mingled
with the briefest notices .f fatal casualilies
that nigh; otherwise be utterly neglected
by the reader, or briefly glanced at. As,
or instance, in the following:
A man in New Hampshire the other day
eat fifteen dozen raw oysters on wager.
The silver trimmings alone on his coiiia
cost twelve dollars and thirty-fve cents.
John Smith in Nebraska said he could
handle Iattlesnake the same as q snake
charuer, The cburishness of the under
taker in demanding pay in advance delayed
the funeral four days.
a circas rider in Texas tried to turn three
summersaul,s on horseback the other day.
Tue manager sent back to New Orleans
the following day for another summersault
nan.
A man in New Jersey could n. wait for
the cars to get to the depot and jumped OIL. |
HIS widow has sued tao insurahce com-
pany.
Few men would attempt to dry dampen-
ed gunpewder in kitchen stove. a man
in Canada did. His afflicted family W oud
be glad ofany information as to his " here
abou.s.
In Massachusetts the other day man
thought he could cross the track in advance
o IA locomotive. The services a. the grave
were very Impressive.
A man warned his wife in New Orieaus

didn't heed the warning. Her clothes Gt

And smoked his pipe of clay;
And bet his money on the bob.taied nag
When the moon had gone away.
I'm lonely since my mother died

So I'll peel bag of taters
With the sword Of Bunker Hill.

Oh, what are the wild waves saying:

And voice cried far up the height,
A little more cider too.
The harp that natures advent strung
Is comm through the rye;
Then kiss me quick and go, my honey
Said the spider to the fly.
My Willie's on the dark blue sea,
With three hundred thousand more;
And my days are gliding swiftly by
To the old Kentucky shore.
