MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 80.
Tx VAaABoyp SAGE-An old man OF
very active physiognomy, answering TO the
name Of Jacob Wilmot, was brought 10 the
Police Court. His clothes looked as though
they might have been bought second hand Id
bis youthful prime, tor they suffered more
from rubs Of the world than the proprietor
himself.
What business. p
None; I'm traveller. ......
a .vagabond, perhaps !?
You are not fur wrong. Travellers and vaga
bonds are about the same thing. The difference
is that the latter travels without money and
the former without brains.
Where have you travelled? ?
An over the continent.
For what purpose
Observation
What have you observed ?
"A little to commend, much to censure an d
great dea! to laugh at.
'Humph what do you commend?
"A handsome woman who will stay at home;
an eloquent preacher that will preach short
sermons good writer that will not write too
much and fool that has sense enough to
hold his tongue
What do yeu censure
A man that marries q girl for her fine
clothing a youth who studies medicine while
he has the use of his hands and the people
who will elect druukard to Office.
What do you laugh at I?
I laugh at man who expects his position
to command that respect which his personal
qualifications and qualities do not merit.
He was dismissed. Exchange paper.
