Ingenious EYasiun.

The ewes of one OF the brethren at Cal
vary church were recently closed. The
trick was done by Dutchman. The
brother had house TO rent. It was To-
Gated opposite to a down town grave
yard. The brother refused to rent it to q
person having children. As the Dutch
man had no less than thirteen of these
expensive blessings, he was slightly nom
plussed. Being himself member of the
church, 1t was impossible for him to lie,
and SO he did the next best thing-he
came Quaker over the brother. When
making application for the house, ne took
with him his entire tribe of olive branches.
He turned them into the graveyard to
play. He then opened up a negotiation

after entering the car lost them. Upon reaching

prisoners he woaid take them back 10 the lonlbs
One OF them replied 'Damn you You care not DO 1t;
/ DEFY YOU" Another Of the prisoners complained
that the bracelets cut hia wrists, and the deputy
sheriff was drunk that he didnot understand hls
request. After much talk they adjourned 10 the
prison. Here the deputy was so stupid that 1t
was impossible for him TO unlock the bracelets. AS
as the prisoners were put IN the convict rgone

TO Sing sing and placed IN q room In the Empire

smashed the windows and broke the bed and chars.
At this point the landlord called In the chief q po

INCREASE OF FOREIGN EMIGRATION FROM british

It win bo seen that the foreigners, who in 1863
formed only three per cent OF the entire emgfaton
amounted In 1868 aud 1869 TO more than twenty
per cent. These foreigners consist principally Of
Germ ans, Swedes. Danes, &c, who are brought to
Hun BY means OF through tickets issued by the
agents OF the several British steamship lines VINO
are scattered all over Europe. From Hull they are
carried BY railroad 10 Liverpool, whence they EN-
bark either for New York or the st. Lawrence.
Their general destination is tue Western states OF
the Union where thev have formed several pOpuous
and prosperous settlements. Certainly the most
remarkable feature OF tile emigration returns for
1868 II not OF the whole emigration statistics Tor the
past decade is furnished by the figures of tho
Swedish emigration. Previous to 1857 the emlNra-
ton from Sweden 10 the United States was compara-
lively small. During period OF twenty years--viz.,
from is47 to 1867 inciusive--the entire number OF
Swedes arriving In the United States was 70 sos,
While IN the year and half iolowing-viz,, up to
June is, ls69tncre arrived 2s,94o or nearly $500
more than III the two previous decades, a1Ordlng
one OF the most marvellous instances OF progressive
emigration on record.
DECREASE OF IRISH EMIGRATION.
Another striking feature IN the emigration returns
or the last years prior to 1869 IS the marked de-
crease both absolutely ana relatively, In the number
oi Irish emigrants. Excluding foreign emigrants
and those whose nationality Ii unstated the result
FOR tie same period has been follows:--
