TO the inn to enjoy his wine The hawker
was left threatening to summon Mr.. Peckham
before the mayor in the morning, which
threat he carried into effect.
The case, on being stated, caused considera
BILE amusement, and eventually his worship
suggested that Mr.. Peckham should make
the poor man some recompense, and he would
dismiss the case. Mr.. Peckham assented,
and thanked his worship kindly, expressing
his regret that the matter had turned out so
unfortunately for the poor man. His wor-
ship desired him to inform the court what
were the words he uttered to the donkey, but
Mr.. Peckham at first declined to do so, on ac-
count of there being danger of giving of
Tense to his worship; but the latter good
humoredly replied that there was no danger
1T all and desired him to speak out Mr.
Peckham, without further hesitation, stated
that he told the donkey that he was brother
TO the mayor of Ripon, and he was fool if
ever he drew another pot for any one; hence

COnyersing With a Donkey.


The following story has been told in SO
many different ways that we think it only
right to give our readers the original: Some
years ago Mr.. Peckham, gentleman well
known and remembered by the tradesmen Oh
Yorkshire, was staying at the Unicorn inn,
Ripon, for the night, and, after completing
his business in the quiet and respectable old
city, was enjoying cigar and a glass with
'ew of the tradesmen who did business with
linn. Among other things the converse
zion turned upon the subject of hold
ing converse with the lower animals,
Mr.. Peckham affirming that the thing
was not an impossibility, as he him
self was able to hold converse with several OF
the different species. While in the act of
conversation, an old man with donkey and
cart, partly laden with pots, drove into the
yard, and, being seen by the company, Mr..
Peckham offered to bet any gentleman pres
sent half dozen of champagne he could
make the donkey understand what he should
say to it. The bet being accepted the party
turned out en- masse. Mr.. Peckham asked
and obtained leave for moments converse
ton with the donkey; and, handing the owner
half a crown for the favor, he put his mouth
quite close to the donkey's ear, and, doubt
less, covering the act with cloud Of smoke,
unobservedly dropped the burning ash
from his cigar into the poor things ear. The
sentence uttered was, Of course, inaudible,
but the donkey instantly began to plunge,
and, its owner being amazed and seemingly
powerless, the cart was eventually over
turned and most Of the pots broken. The
disaster caused no little amusement to the
company at the expense of the poor fellow,
who demanded compensation for the damage
done, to which request Mr. Peckham declined
TO accede. and. with his friends he returned

~Times amt now what they used to be"
remarked one gray-bearded veteran, as he
burned his eyes, dimmed by looking at many
fires, upon the reporter who sat on the bench
beside him. "'Twas bad day for Phil
'delphy when them paid fellers got in. They
amt got the quickness at we volunteers had.
Bless me, you orter seed us breakin' along
with that air hose-cart boundin' after us like
toy wagin. ! reckon we could beat any
pair o. horses they've got now in the city fur

started down at Race street-same day as
President lack Taylor died-in 1856. One of
the boys piled inter the shed yellin' that
house had blowed up down near the Race
street wharf an killed dozen people an had
thrown hundred bales of burnin' hay
around that air neighborhood promiscuous-
like, which was settin' the hull square agoin'.
II started on ahead to find how things was,
an when got there see No. comm up the
street like mad, quite a ways ahead of our
cart. Isee they'd get the first chance at the
nearest watering plug an wasn't willin' no
how, that the Niagara should be beat by that
No. 9 crowd. So picked up ash barl an
tipped the ashes over into the gutter, an then
put her bottom up over the plug an set down
on the top of her, smokin' my pipe as easy as
anythin', though there was four houses
blazin' away right afore me. The foreman
of No. 9 came tearin' up and began lookin'
fur that plug to hitch his pipe onto, but he
couldn't find it nowheres. Says he,
swearin' mad: .Am I gettin' ter be
that foolish as to forget where that plug is on
this here street, Very like said I, as cool
as chunk of ice and suckin' away on my
pipe, which couldn't have gone out very well
though, on account of the sparks fallin'
around us that thick. If you have forgot,
that there plug is down t'other corner further

boys to foller him, the hull crowd went off
down the street like lot of wild cats. The
next minute the Niagara comes up and gifts
down off the bar1, and, iftin' her from over
the plug, hitched fast an got a stream on five
minits before any other comp'ny. tell you,
young man, they kin say what they want
