co, and it became the duty of said Defendant to
carry him to his destination without Injury to
his person or insult to his feelings, but yet the

of the steamer, wrongfuIly, and without JUS
ti6abe cause, assaulted him and drove him out
of the saloon of the boat down the stairway,

OR1amrs' OF; FAMILIAR !, Wonps.-The

ORIGIN OF; FAMILIAR WonDs.-The
word :'Qnis, to make. fun of or poke
xun at q person, was the coinage of a
s1heatrioal manager in Dublin, who, at q
drinking party with his friends on Sa-
tufday night, when the conversation
turned upon the subjeot Of words, Of
fered TO bet the wine that he could, then
and there, coin q word that would be in
the months OF Dublin next day. The
bet being taken and the party dispersed,
the manager called upon his call.boys
and runners, gave them pieces of chalk,
and ordered them to run all over the
CITY, chalking the word ''quiz" on every
door, shutter and fence they came to.
This was done. and, as matter of
course: the new word was in eyerybody's
mouth the next day. The manager won
his bets and his word is now in all re-
spectacle dictionaries.
The slang expression for death, "kick-
ing the bucket" had it's origin from one
Bolsover, whos in England, great
while ago, committed suicide by stand-
Ing on a.buoket till he kicked the bucket
from under him. s A at.l4
The word "oumper." meaning full
drink when friends are drinking, is q
corruption OF the toast offered in French
20 The PopeS when the Catholic religion
was in the ascendant in England, au
bon pere. .,3y
"Humbug" is corruption OF the
Irish words nina bog, pronounced oom
bug, signiiying soft copper, or pewter,
OK brass, or worthless money, such as
was made by James II, at the Dublin
mint-twenty shillings of which was
worth only two pence sterling. At first
applied to worthless coin. the word be-
came the general title Of anything false
or counterfeit.
The sign wiz" 4ignifying to wit, or
namely, Ia an abbreviation of Oidelicit;
but the third letter was not originally z;
itswas the mark used in medicine for a
afahM, which, in writing, very much
resembles q, and ID viz was simply used
a.. o mark or sign Of abbreyiation.
edTo t.dun,ns to press for money due,
comes from; one Joe Dunn. a famous
bailiR Of Lincoln, in England, during
the reign OF, Henry VII. He was so
nncommonly4 snocessful in collecting
money, that when man refused to pay,
tho s-faitor was asked why he didn't
Dunn him. - -

A rather original report is credited to
an exploring commission recently sent
BY Q Mississippi town council to fix the
locality Of mill which had been de-
stroyed years before. They reported
the discovery of the spot in these words:

bnt couldn't find the mill by dam

NIAGARA.

The editor of the Presbyterian
Banner gives the following account
of his experience at Niagara hotels !:
'The intolerable nuisance of Niagara
is its great hotels. Two of us arriv-
ed at the station at about half-past
II o'clock P. NJ, gave the check for
our trunk to the man representing
one of them, and walked to that es-
tablishment, about one-eighth of a
mile distant. The next day, when
we went to the desk to pay our bill
to the dignifed party who presides
there, we found charge of $3.50
for an omnibus-ride. We told him
that we had not enjoyed the luxury
of ride in that institution, and did
not propose to do so. Putting on a
courtly smile, he replied, Have you
not trunk p We acknowledged
ourselves guilty of that offense.
ooh, then,' said he, you see how it
is; we charge every one who comes
to this house with a trunk just as
much for bringing and taking away
his trnnk as if he rode in our omnl-
bus. Then said we, there are
two of us, and you charge for one
trunk just the same as if both OF us
had ridden in your vehicle; or, in
other words, you compel guests to
ride to all of which he assented.
In plain words, we told him that
such conduct was exactly the re-
verse of honest, and that hotel that
would act in this way was defraud-
ing the public. But so accustomed
is he to hear such talk many times
every day that he did not give the
least evidence of annoyance. The
owners of hacks give as one reason
for their high charges that they are
compelled to pay a certain percent
age to the clerks of this house, or
fail to get employment.
