pmnmirs fuming Pa,t Maloney^ Cat. Pat Maloney, better known by I name ot Father Pat, on returning fr? work one evening, was mets at the gate Biddy, his better half, in a high state excitement. " Pat," says she, " there's a strange m tho cabin." Cast her out, thin; don't bc bothei me about the baste." " Faix, an' I've been strivin' to do t for the matter of tin minits past, but is beyaut my rache. behind the big chist in the "corner. Will ycz be a! helpin me drive her out Pat 1" " To be sure I will ; bad luck to eonsate she has for mc house. Show to me, Biddy, till I tache her the resp that's due to a man in his own hou*e be takin1 possession without as mud be yer lave-th? thaf? o' the world !" Now, Pat Iud u. special antipathy cats, and inver let pass an opportiu; to kill one. This he resolved to do the present case, aud instantly forme plan for the purpose. Perceiving olio way ol' egress for the animal, he s to Biddy : Have yez ?vera male-tag in the hoi mo dari int/" * Divii a one is there, Put. Ye t< it to the mill wid ycz, to bring hu chips, this moram'." .. Faut, im' I did, and thece it is ; thin. And have ye notion' at all. in hon ?e. that will t o np hkeabaj:, Bidd; "Troth au'I hive, Pat; there's Sunday petticoat-yo can draw thestri close at. tiii '.op. an' sure it will be be for not lett in' the cat lavin1 yrz." " Biddy, J.irlint, ye'ro a jewel ; just afc r bringing itt'? me at wan.-t." Biddy trough?, the garment, and s enough, it made :? good sn ?srittite fi hag. Pat declared at a glance that it "iiiigen*.'" So, lidding it dino aga til ? edge of the che*f, he took a look hind, and saw a-pair of eyes glaring him. ' An' its there ye are, ye divil? out o' that, now bad luck to y?z, ye ti in' vagabcne Be dud, an' ye wont le a* all with perlite nxin-ycrself will I the pigs int i rely. Biddy, have y oz i hot water ?" "Sure, I've the lull of a tay-kittlo a bilin', Pat." Be aft her castin' the matter c quart, thin behind the chist, and we'll how the bas';e minds the like o' that." " Howld close, tlti.t-here goes ?teamin'-hot water." So saying, dash went thc water, i out came tho animal into Pat's trap. " Arrah, bc the howly poker, 1 h: Mm now, Biddy," said Pat. " I? it n lives ye hev, ye baste? Well, now, axin me pardon for all thc *havin' ye bin dom' in mc house, or it's the nine li will not saw ye. Biddy, seize houll the poker, and whilst f ?boulder thc b just whack the daylights out of thc h then divil iutirely." Pat threw the bundle over his she der, and Biddy struck about three bia to the tune of St. Patrick's day in i morning, when she suddenly stopped. " What smills so quar, Pat? Su it's taken mc bri th away wid the pov of it. O murther, Pat, it's the divil have in the sack !" " Bate him, thin-bate the horns ol " I'm faintin'," said Biddy ; " cast h' . off ye, Pa:." " Ooh, murther, murther ! Biddy A loney, what hev ye done ? Ye've wi and mistaken a horrible polecat for harrumlcss tame cat !" " Pat, for the love o' God, if ye're cc vanient to the door, unclose it, for 1 perisht intirely. O Biddy Maloney, tl iver you sho lld lave ould Ireland, to smothered a i' murthered in this way !" " Faix, the little villain bates thc di' himself; he's ruined me house, and k Biddy, an1 put me out o' eonsate M id n own self. 0, the murtherin baste !" By the dint of washing, and scourin and the burial of Biddy's best pcltico under the ground for a space of ti rr things were at length set to rights agai But not a little recrimination took pl? between them on the occasion, and n< thcr ever forgot tho expulsion from tl cabin of Bildy's strange cat -? ? ? --- An lud?an Story. A romantic young lady, whose mn was deeply imbued with reading " Tl Sorrows of Werter," and other novels i the exquisitely sentimental school, a] proached a stalwart savage, whose sor bre visage indicated suffering of soir kind, and addressed him thus : " Why droops the eagle eye of the fb est chief ? Is he brooding over the wronr, of his race? Does-the memory of th red warrior revert to the past, when hi proud ancestors roamed through th mighty forests, and enjoyed the primcvt glories of Nature, now so sadly .marre by the axe and plough of the sympathii ing rustic ?" The answer of the forest chief with th drooping eagle-eye, was a little shockin: to her refined sensibility : "No! White man gib Ingun too mud wh'*ks!ee. Ingun big drunk last night : In gjjn sick ; by-and-by Ingun puke ; Injui well again, ugh !" . Inspired Eloquence. In one of the most populous of th< western towns of Massachusetts, residec two Orthodox deacons-one, Deacon Bib ble, a wealthy resident of the principal village ; the other, Deacon Crawfoot, I plain farmer and living in the outskirts upon the mountain-side. During a protracted meeting, held in tho village, Deacon Crawfoot came in tn attend it, and received and accepted an invitation to dine with his brother dea con. The latter (it was a good many years ago) had champagne upon his table, and.asked Deacon Crawfoot to take a glass of the wine. *' No," said Deacon C., " I never take wine." " But," urged his -entertainer, " this is as harmless as cider, and no more intoxi cating." '.Well," replied the farmer, "if that bc the case, I will drink of it," And he did drink, and drank freely. The dinnet ended, the brethren returned to the meeting, which was a conference. Very soon after entering, Deacon Craw foot, who evidently felt the inspiration of his generous dinner, started to his feet, and addressed his brethren as follows : " It seems to me, brethren, that I nev er had such operitual views and emotion? as I experence now. And I thought it best to inquire whether these are confin ed to myself or whether this may not be indeed a pentecostal season. Whv, brethren, 1 never had such speritual views and emotions, lt seems as ef I was set ting astride the roof of this our conse crated temple, the organ swelling beneath me, the bells pealing above me, and every shingle on the meeting-'house playing on a j ^ewaWp !" j An Inquisitive Taukee. A Correspondent, writing from' New port, ll. I., relates the following: "Tho Hon. Duncan C. Pell, who was lieutenant-governor of thia State last \ ear, is a man of considerable eccentrici ty of character-a whole-souled, good hearted individual, but decidedly 'odd in many respects. Nothing so much dis turbed his equanimity as for persons to exhibit a curious disposition,, and attempt to know more of his affairs than he chose to tell. " Many years* ago Mr. Pell was about to erect a fence around one of his lots in the city, and in order to save himself from the daily interrogatories .which he knew would be made by his neighbors and passers-by, he had a sign painted, on which he displayed all the information in regard to the fence which he fancied could possibly be desired or demanded. He narrated concisely the following fact?: " Who was owner of the laud ; why he fenced it in ; how much lumber the fence was to contain ; where he bought it, and how much a foot he paid fur it ; tlife quan tity of nails to be used ; the name of the builder ; and the exact amount of land to be enclosed. Self-satisfied that he had answered all the questions that could be asked,-Mr. Pell was quite happy at thc idea that he had freed himself entirely from imperilment inquiries. u Bat one night, or rather very early un a very disagreeable morning, Mr. Pell was awakened from a drep sleep by a loud knocking at his front door. The call appeared to be so urgent that Mr. Pell thrust his head out of the window, and demanded, in no gentle tone, 'What the-is the matter]' Standing shiv ering in his only garment, Mr. Pell held the following colloquy with thc intruder: ."Does Mr. Pell live herc?' " ' Y?*. What dc) yon waut V " '-Mr. Duncan C. P. 1: ?" ."Yes; Duncan C. Pell.1 "'Is it Mr. Pell who.is building the f nee on Ma y strfrl?' u ' Yes, VHS, certainly; What of it V " 1 Well, Mr. Duncan C. Pell, do you intend to paint that felice, or will you whitewash it!' "The answer and the window went down together, and Mr. Pell retired to bed, satisfied that there could be no es cape from Yankee inquisitiveness. -* ? ?-. A good story is told about a couple of church-members-one of them a deacon by the name of Bennet, and the other a Bruther Griffin.. Brother Griffin was ad dicted a little to the use of intoxicating drinks, and was the cause of some trouble to the church. On one occasion Deacon Bennet was sent by the church to talk with Brother Griffin in regard to the er ror of his ways, and, if possible, persuade him to reform. In going from his house to that of Brother Griffin's he was com pelled to cross a stream of water, over which there was a row-boat ferry. In crossing, the Deacon told the ferryman where he was going, and his business. When he arrived at Brother G 's he found him in the hayfield at work with his men. ile was very cordially received by Broth er G., who suspected his errand and in vited him to a scat in thc shade of a lArgc tree. " It is a very warm day, Deacon, very warm ; won't you take alittle something 1 said G. " Well, I don't care if I Jo take just ii swallow," said the Deacon. To make thc story as brief as possible, the bottle was brought into requisition pretty ofteu, the Deacon forgot his' er rand, and started for home toward thc close of thc afternoon, considerably " over the bay." When he arrived at the bank of the river, which was very steep, he had to dil the ferryman, who was upon the opposite side, and wait for him to come over. By waiting, thc liquor had a pretty good chance to work, and when he finally started for the boat, instead o', going toward it, he rushed down the bank into the river. The ferryman plunged in and brought him out, and after thc Dea con was on dry land :hc ferryman said : . " Why, Deacon, what is the matter?" "Oh," whimpered the Deacon, "I feel so for Brother Griffin I can't stand !" After this if any one in that neighbor hood got too much liquor it was said : '. Oh. he feels for Brother Griffin !" " Ilould aisy, Mike," said one of two Irish pedestrians, as he reverently ap proached a mile-stone. " Thread lightly,'' said he, " for here lies a very ould man." Pat carefully spelled out the inscription: ;t Baltimore, one hundred and fifty-four miles," ano then continued : '.' He was one hundred and fifty-four years ould, and his name was Miles, from . Balti more." ENORMOUS IRISH BULL.-When an Irish woman applied for relief at Portland, the committee asked : " How many children have you ?" " Six, yer honor." " How old is the youngest?" " Me youngest is dead, yer honor ; but I've had another since!" A Bankrfipt merchant says that his business has been so bad that he could not pay his debts, even if he had the money. A splendid ear but a very poor voice, as the organ-grinder said to the donkey. A while ago a farmer in Virginia lost his wife, and out of love for her memo ry, called his estate "Glenmary." A neighbor having met with the same afflic tion, and equally desirous of keeping be fore him the image of his dear departed, followed his example, and his farm is known by the name of " Glenbetsy." Why is a prudent man like a pin? Because his head prevents him from go ing too far. How .long did Cain hate his brother? As long a;i he was Abel.
