Peter Hougiitailirg in Luck.


Last Sunday was 4 lucky day fot
Peter. In the morning he found u
thrce-dollar gold piece, in Pat. Malones
yard, bearing date 1854, and which
had probably lain there all these many
years waiting for Uncle Sam to resume
specie payments; by dint of much
securing the piece was made to shine
as when new. In the afternoon Peter
went out walking and found horse
shoe sticking in the mud, which he
considered another piece Of good luck
but to cap the climax he saw a piece
ofpaper in the road, which upon being
examined contained pint bottle full
of the essence Of rye. 1t is needless
to add that Peter danced a hornpipe,
never once thinking it was Sunday.
