EXCHANGING SALuTATIoNs.-A few days

resting himself after a days toll with hoe and
brush, cleaning alleys, when the milkman
stuck his face into the door wicket, with a
prolonged salutation of "M-i-lk.' This
struck the humorous-sarcastic nerve of the
reposer's ear, and he responded in a sonorous
tone, "W-a-t-e-r." The milkman, recogniz-
ing the voice. and not to lie outdone in point
of politeness, sung back with all the power of
his voice, - B-u-n-k-o !" which had the effect
of bringing ali the prisoners into the Jail yard
with rush, to see what was up, and Jack
made as hasty disappearance to see if he
had rot forgot something inside.
