THE HUMBUGGED HUSBAND. She's not what Fancy painted her I'm sadly taken in If some one else had won her, I Should not have cared a pin ; I thought that she was mild and good, As maiden ere could be; I wonder how she ever could Have so much humbugged me. They clusterround and shake my hand, They tell me I am-blest My case they do not understand, I think that I know best; They call her fairest of the fair, They drive mad and madder ;. What do-they mean 1 I do declare I-only wish they had her. 'Tis true, she has lovely locks, That on her shoulders fall What would they say to see the box In which she keeps them all! Her taper fingers, it in true, Are difficult to match What would they say if they but knew, How terribly they scratch ? Rmuzement. Dreaming on Wedding Cake. A bachelor editor out West, whop had received from the fair hands of a bride a piece of rich wedding cake to dream on, thus gives the result of his experience: We put it under the head of our pillow, shut our eyes uwsl.y as an infant, and, blessed with an easy concience, soon snored prodigiously. The god of dreams gengly touched us, and lo! in fancy we were married! Never was a little editor so happy. It was "my love," " dearest," "sweetest," ringing in our ears every mo ment. Oh! that the dream had been broken off here. But no, some evil geni. us put it into the head of our ducky to have plum pudding for dinner, just to please her lord. In a hungry dream we sat down to dinner. Well, the pudding moment arrived, and a huge slice almost obscured from sight the plate before us. "My dear," said we fondly, "did you make this I" "Yes, love-ain't it nice I" "Glorious-the best bread pudding I ever tasted in my life." "Plum pudding, ducky," suggested my wife. 0 0 no, dearest, bread pudding, I al ways was fond of 'em." " Call that bread pudding!" exclaimed my wife, while her pretty lips curled slightly with. contempt. " Certainly, my dear-reckon I've eat enough at the Sherwood House to know. Bread pudding, my love, by all means." " Husband, this is really too bad. Plum pudding is twice as hard to make as bread pudding, and is more expensive, and is a great deal better. I say this is plum pudding sir," and my pretty wife's brow flushed with excitement. " My love, my sweet, my dear love," exclaimed we, soothingly, "do not .get angry. i'm sure it's very good, if it is bread pudding." "You mean),low wretch," fondly re plied my wvife, in a high tone, " you know it is plum pudding." " Then, madam, it is so meanly put to gether and so badly burnt, that the devil himself wouldn't knowv it. I tell you, madam, most distinctly and emphatically, and [ will not be contradicted, that it is bread pudding, and the meanest kind at that." "It is plum pudding !" shrieked my wife, as she hurled a glass of claret in my face, the glass itself 'tapping the claret' from my nose. " Bread pudding !" gasped we, pluck to the last, and graspinig a roasted chick en by the left leg. "Plum pudding !" rose above the din, as I had a distinctive perception of feel. ing two plates smash across my head. " Bread pudding !" we groaned in rage, as the chicken left our hand, and flying with swill wing across the table, landed in madam's bosom. " Plum pudding !" resounded the war cry from the enemy, as the gravy dish took us where we had been depositing the first part of our dinner, and a plate of beets landed upon a white vest. " Bread pudding, for ever !" shouted we in defiance, dodging the soup tureen, and falling beneath its contents. "Plum pudding !" yelled the amiable spouse, as noticing our misfortune, she determined to keep us dowvn by piling upon our head the dishcs with no gentle hand. Then in rapid succession followed the war cries: " Plum pudding !" shrieked she with every dish. "Bread pudding !" in smothered tones; came up from the pile in reply. Then it was " plum pudding" in rapid succession, the last cry growing feeble, till just as I can distinctly recollect, it had grown to a whisper. " Plum pudding" resounded like thunder, followed by a tremendous crash, as my wife leaped upon the pile with her delicate feet, and commenced jumping up and down, when, thank Hea ven, we awoke and thus saved our life. We shall never dream on wedding cake again-that's the moral. Kssrs& A YANKsER TAI~oR's WIFE. William the IV., late King of England, when Prince of Wales and during his ser vice off the coast of Canada made an excursion into Upper Canada, and crossed over to the State of Vermont. lHe en tered a tailor shop and on seeing the tai lor's wife, an exceedingly beautiful wo man, he, without ceremony ravished a kiss from the lady and remarked, " There now, tell your country women that the son of the King of England has kissed a Yankee tailor's wife." Unhappily for him at that moment, her husband appeared from the back room, and being a stout follow, gave the scion of royalty a tremendous kick and ex claimed: " There! go and tell your country wo men that a Yankee-tailor has kicked the son of the King of England. 0r A fool's belt i:; zoon ho!. GOOD JOKE ON A WIDOWER.-A cor respondent at Holly Springs; Mississipii, tells the following and vouches for its truth. It is the best joke we have heard of lately: It appears that a widower in that town, of a somewhat gallant disposi tion, had been accustomed to visit the residence of the widow M-, whether to see the amiable widow herself, or her lively daughters, our informant did not know. One evening he found the family party hard at work on some garments of cloth. The girls- were sowing, and the widow was pressing the- seams. The widower "hung up his hat," as usual, and and took his seat by the fire; at that mo ment it happened that the widow was done with the pressing iron (vulgo, or tailor's goose.) She sat it down on the hearth, and called to her negro: man in a loud voice, " Jake! Jake! come and take out this goose !" The widower started up with astonishment, not knowing what to make of this abrupt order. " Jake !" do you hear me" again exclaimed the widov. "I beg your pardon, Mrs. M." said the widower; with visible agitation, hut pray don't call Jake-if you wish me to leave your house, I will go at once, and wfith. out the interference of servant." ''he la dies roared with laughter, and took some moments to explain to the chigiined widower his mistake. He has not been known to visit the widow M-since that memorable evening. "EVERY INCH .A KixG."-An excel-. lent story is told of the King of the Mos quito Kingdom, where the British are lionizing so much at San Juan, in Cen. tral American. During one of his recent excursions in company with the Britilh consul, a small craft was seen sailing down the harbor, with the American ensign at the peak. The royal proces 0 sion came to a halt, when his mn:jesty, pointing his sable finger in the direction of the stars and stripes, exclaimed, in an authoritative tone, 11 Wat dat flag dar,' Mr. Consul 1" " The American tlag." was the reply " Merican flag-wat country dat you call Merican I" querried his Royal Majesty. "Is it big like Moskeeter king. dom 1" DEAN JACxsoN4 passing one morning throu:h Christ Church quadrangle, met some under graduates, who passed along without capping. The Dean called one of them and asked: "Do yon know who I am?" " No, sir." "How long have you been in el. lege?" " Eight days, sir." " Oh, very well," said the Dean walk. ing away, "puppies dont open their eyes until the ninth day." MRS. PARTINGTON' LATr.-" No won der !" exclaimed Mrs. Pamtington, as sh. laid down the newspaper, "no wonmder that Mr. Webster does so much to suppmort the Constitution: I can't see howv his cn stitution has held up so long. If my porm Paul had eaten as many big dinners and drank as much Champlainche would have been constituted to the grave long before. he was." And the old lady wiped a tear from the angle of her eye, and resumed her knitting wvith a sad expression on her usually cheerful and benignanit counte nance Svsp1C1ous.--A servant girl whispered to neighbor Abagail, one night. " Now mind, [ don't say as how master drinks, but betwveen you and I, the demiijohn in: the dark closet don't keep full all the ime." --- "MoRE TROUBLE CoMxING," said Mrs. Partington laying down the paper,." there 's the State of Affairs; I suppose it wil soon be applying for admission into the Union ;" and the old lady resumed her darning, with a look of patriotic anxiety. When Julia Long stood at thme alltar, the minister inquired, ' Is your name .1 nlia Long ?' The innocent girl replied, ' I t aint nothing shorter!l' But it wasn't so, long. " WXAr did you give for that horse, neighbor ?" " My note !" " Well that wcas cheap !" Fights in grog-shops are now called spiritual knockings. H. R.

I then called in medical aid, and from the remedies used el he was alternately better and worse for eight or d ten weeks. During this time a large abscess a formed upon the hip, the diseharge was large, 0 andl as soon as it ceased, a general swelling of his ti leg, thugh and breast commenced, which was very a Tiard to the touch, and at times experienced much a difficulty in swaflowing. Medical aid seemed of 13 no further avail, and was discontinued. I then tl had recourse to your "Magical Pain Eradicator." tm In forty-eight hours, from the time I commenced its use, his foot began to soften ; the swelling on his hip and breast subsided, and I amn pleased to say he is notw well. I again used your remedy in a esse of Neu ralgia, with great success, giving immediate re lief. I have tried it also for Tooth-Ache, with my youngest child, with entire ruecess. From the success I have had in the use of 1: your " Magical Pain Eradicator," I have no hesi tation in recommnding it to the public. Yours truly, W. W. HUGHES." 3 The above statements of the use of " Mar shall's Magical Pain Eradicator," are known by me to be true. (Signed) ANGUS BETHIUNE. None is genuine without the written name o J1. E.

The medical faculty constitutes an anomaly this or any other country-all of them are able eturers and the best of teachers.

As to ieahhinclu ng all seasons of the year, we deny that any her city has more. A common error exists in the minds of many dents relative to the place ofstudylngmedicine; Mse who intend practicin among the diseases of ie West and South should certainlyeducate them Ives at a school whose Faculty are practically quainted with those diseases. That the public may be saisfied of the prma. mney of this school, we feel it our duty to state, at the Trustees and Facnity form a unitin action, hich augurs well for its future success: and ihat e peculiar internal organization which cauneits em, cannot be interrupted.
