A Bit OF EDWARD KEANE's FuN.--At
one time a quartettc OF friends dined 10.
gether weekly, Of which Edmund Keane
and Elliston, we think, were two. After
dinner, one dark Winters evening. a
hackney coach was called, and the four
friends, each carrying small bag under
his arm, entered the vehicle, which wns
ordered to be driven to q street Of the
Strand, which was not very brilliantly
lighted. When II had reached gloomy
spot, where the gas.lamps were widest
apart, the driver was told to halt and
open the door.
He did so, and from the steps descend

The line seemed likely to stretch to

who stood at the door holding his arm
TO assist the strange company as they
alighted, bore it for while but over
powered at last with fear and horror, ran
off, shouting for the watch to exercise
this demonical procession.
This was a bit OF Edmund Keane's
wild fun. He had furnished his com.
panions with their funeral gear in their
bags. Their cloaks, etc, were assumed
as they drove along, and the opposite
door Of the coach was quietly opened,
and the steps let down before the occu-
pants got out flom the other side. To
slip unperccivcd round the back Of the
coach and pass nimbly through again be

Illuminated "Weihnachtsbaum" or

called, and gifts are given and received.
