FRIDAY MORNING. MAY 1e.

American artist painted snow-storm so natur-
ally that he caught bad cold by sitting near
it with his coat off. - "Some land was so rich
that squash vine in its rapid growth overlook
drove of pigs" 'The reason why cream is
dear is that milk has risen so high the cream
can't reach 1.-THE top" There is a capital story
in which it is related that "a coach drove
through the the country so fast, and the mile
stones passed SO quickly by, that the passen-
gers thought they were in graveyard"
This coach, however, was beaten by the skip
per, which went so tarnation fast that in sailing
round Long Island she left her shadow three
and half miles behind her Major N, when
asked whether he was seriously injured by the
explosion of the boiler of the St. Leonard
steamer, replied 'that he was SO used to being
blown up by his wife, that a mere steamer
had no effect upon him." The evidence of wit
ness in life insurance case; involved in the
blowing up of a steamboat on the Ohio, is
droll Just because it is characteristic. The wit
ness knew the missing man, and saw him ON
the deck of the steamboat before the explosion.
When asked by the lawyer, "What was the
last time you saw him?" he answered, 1.-THE
very last time L ever set eyes on him was when
the bller burst, and Twas going up. Imet him
and the smoke-pipe coming down." We all
know that the American oysters are large, but
that one must have been of extraordinary size
which required three men to swallow it whole.
1t is not fair that the foreigners should have
all the lies to themselves; so we will let the
Engllshman put i'll an appearance. "A COM
mercial traveller boaSting that his firm spent
e3O0 year for writing ink alone was an
swered, During the last twelve months we
have saved in that article alone $1,000 by mere
ly emitting the dots to our is and the crosses
to our u.s." One of the best specimens of
rhodomontade is the following story, which we
have not seen in print. Two men, who were
famous for their vaporing, laid wager as to
which could tell the biggest lie. One said that
he was in the mid-ocean, far away from land
when he espied a man swimming The ship
was stopped, and preparations were made for
taking the man in, when he cried out, 81 am
all right, and only want to know the latitude
and longitude; for 1 am swimming to Eng
land" This seemed sufficiently improbable:
but the other capped it by asking ''whether
his friend had seen the man again?' and be-
ing answered in the negative, said, "Then 1
am he" Any notice of rhodomontade would
be imperfect without a passing mention of the
surprising travels, campaigns, voyages and ad-
ventures of Baron Munchausen, or of the later
tall talk of the rafting Jungle in Pickwick."
