Mankind are an averishus batch oy
critters; we all look upon the fifty
cent in our nabor's pocket with more
lust than we do on the dollar and a half
of our own.
There is this difference between
caushon and cunning -caushon iz the
dauter ov prudence, cunning is haff
brother to deceit.
Educashun and refinement hav made
man a respectable monster, that's about
all.
"Bc sure yu are right, and then go
ahed;" but, in case nv doubt go ahed
ennyhow.
When man dies hiz fai,ings should
be buaiied with him, but his virtues (ii
he haz enny) should be transplanted on
his grave and be watered regularly bi
everybody.
Old folks have but few assoshiats
perhaps the reason iz they are SO anxi-
Gus to do all the talking and none ov
the listening.
All the money that a man spends ju-
dishOusly in this world he saves and all
that he boards he has got to leave, and
thereby loOze.
Thoze people who are anxious to
hev their memory cherished for emmy
create length ov time after they are
dead should die badly insolvent.
This world allwuss haz been, and
allwass will be full ov glittering theo-
rys; | kan hardly think now ov al

To the everlasting krepit ov all man

The philosopher who gives a goo,

Our SHIP-BUILDING.-To Seabeck. w.
T., belongs the credit of constructing the
largest vessel ever built OH the Pacific
Coast. Her hull is now more than half
finished. and twenty men are at work
upon it. Her lengbt of keel is 2l4 feet,
her breadth of beam A feet and eight in
ehes, her depth ofhold II feet and her fu-
ture numbering carrying capacity estimat-
ed at 100000 feet. She will be single
decked and ship-rigged. Captain Ed
wards. now of the bark Cassaadra Adams,
will command her. Hiram Doncaster is
her builder, and Adams, Taylor & Co.,
will be her owners. 1t is said that she is
being made as strong as wood and iron
can make II vessel, and it is thought she
will be fast. She will be somewhat larger
than any vessel ever built on this Coast.
She will probably be the biggest single
decked ship afloat.
