From the Pail Mall Gazette.
1 heard the other day an amusing tale of
a certain well-known English nobleman,
who had imported two emus with the hope
of breeding from them, and on leaving his
estate for town left also strict injunctions
that the greatest care should be taken of
the lady emu, if she produced the desired
egg or eggs. The egg arrived in due
now the lady declined to sit" The stew
ard, however, was an ingenious man, and
thought of a substitute, but his powers of
composition were by no means on a par
with his inventiveness, and he announced
the interesting event to his master in the
following terms:
1.-The emu has laid an egg, but we are in
a great difficulty, as she would not sit ON
it. did what 1 thought was best, and in
your lcrdship's absence have placed the
egg under the biggest goose on the estate"
