drinks as he is bout de water.
In my opinion Noah was a mighty
cuts man. When he got drunk on
wine an pulled off his briches an
shirt, he mout ha' knowed dat some
body would hab seed him, but when
his son found him he jumped up and
cursed de boy. Noah committed two
sins ter de boys one, but yet dc boy
had ter suffer. Ten dollars an costs
would hab fitted dat man monstrous
well.
As a tight shoe makes a hard place

Poetic NMnshbuekIer.


Louisville Postl 81
The revival of interest in Walt
Whitman is one of the c~uriositieS Of
modern thought. The rugged old
man. with the deep-set eyes and
Homeric beard, has always had about
him a band Of admirers, who look
upon him as a prophet, but it is only
Of late that he has obtained some
thing like a generalr0cognition. And
it is curious. He is IN anomaly. He
resembles the old bards, in uniting
the callings of tramp and poet. He
sings of divine things, in a SLOUGH hat
and with unkempt hair. He loves to
sublimatc unpoetic themes, like the
sun transforming mud puddles into.
things of beauty. Anincorrigible old.
egotist he is, an old swashbuckler

He is truly a poet, with llomeric

IF John the Baptist, and feeds us on
locusts and wild honey. We are in
clined to admire a certain grandeur in
the man, a positive honesty of senti
ment and real vigOr of sensibility; but
We cannot join in the acceptance of
him which the publishers are trying
to force on us. The vast public of de
eent-minded people cannot willingly
receive him as a prophet. He is truly
a rhapsodist Of vague philosophers.
The student Of literature cannot afford
to be ignorant of him, but we can't in
yite him TO our fresides. Walt does
not, like Horace, sing for boys and
girls" but for men, and bearded men
at that.

tains everything that he has written.

Consumption Cured.

BALTIMORE, Nd, Feb. II, 1881.
Upon the recommendation Of a
friend, l tried Browns Iron Bitters
as a tonic and restorative for my
daughter, whom l was thoroughly
convinced was fast wasting away in
consumption. Having lost three
daughters by the terrible disease,
under the care Of eminent physicians,
was 10th to believe that anything
could arrest the progress Of the dis
ease; but to my surprise, before my.
daughter had taken one bottle of
Browns Iron Bitters, she began to
mend, and is now quite restored to
her former health. A fifth daughter
began to show signs Of consumption,
and when the physician was consulted,
be quickly said; "Tonics wore re-
quiredl' And when informed that he
elder sister was taking Browns Iron
Bitters, responded, THAT is a good
tonic, take it.

For some time there has been hang.
ing over a jury Of Camden county, n.
j., a cloud-a cloud of pie one might
almost say, if the laws Of metaphor
were a little more elastic. While the
jury was out re~cently-had been out,
in fact, for several hours-the idea
occurred TO a brilliant young lawyer
that it would be a good joke on the
hungry jurymen to t~antalize them with
the sight Of a luscious mince pie. Ac
cordingly, taking a pie, be stole up
stairs, and-ran plump into the arms
Of a wary constable, who reported the
occurrence to the court. 1t was sus
pected that the jury had been tam
pered with by mean Of pie, and the
members thereof were highly indig-
nant. The suspicious constable was
certain that a conspiracy existed TO
influence the jury. The members Of
the jury, however, turned the tables
upon him, and proved the s~candalous
character Of the charge by drawing up
afidavits 10 the effect that during
their deliberations nothing had been
passed into their room except some
very stale bread, by the constable"
The charge of attempted bribery by
pie was therefore Withdrawn, and the
brilliant young lawyer was released.
