I met Edgar the other day. He looks careworn and dejected since his rejec- tion by Monek. - I did think of getting off a conun- drum on him, and asking him why he was like the pomps and vanities of this wicked world—but he appeared so mel- ancholy that I forbore to lacerate his feelings by any,allusiou to his defeat. The answer to the above leu deeprit is --belauso illonck's renounced hint. Edgar is a poet. He once wrote a National Anthem under the title of Fair Canada. If he was to do it some more he would probably entitle his production " Unfair Canada," on account of the people's refusal to recognize his trans cendant merits. . No literary man amounts to much iu this country until he has wiitten a Ca- nadian National song. I have concluded to do so. It's quite easy. The principal ingre- dients are patriotism, maple leaf, loyal- ty, beaver, historic deeds, British con- nection, gallant forefathers, noble red man, forest homes, War`of 1812, Union Jack, &o. �iTm7gma�iam The patter of weekly palter says :-- • —• r` There reap been >e ' humors in town •' • adobe ear lafft."a.,, • Hoodealle4 the shunning of' a door Iby 31 ereon in u piassion " a wooden ;earth, ' " Che bottom o'f n wall iiiust be a e o`ok' g trail, plaoe, for even truth is • said tele itllelles z laudene oonso t rotiou wh an he Jeli,� 14'f teen et twenty acquaintances didn't Bland on the opposite corner and Weigh tx't his mishap. •' Yee, my hearers," said to Wiseon- sin minister, "little' johnny Clem ska- ted into`heaven by way of an air hole .ori Grease Lake, and he is happy now." r muss MUST BE A LIMIT.—Dugald— "1 saw ye wir nae at the kirk, Tonal."

'T'::le Utica Herald says two old ladies trophied a conductor on the Central toad, one protesting than she should die f the window were open, and the other protesting against shutting it, when an experienced traveller advised the con- ductor to settle the matter in this way : " Open the window and kill one, then idose it and kill the other, and we shall have peace."

How Olaf Are Yon ? There is a good deal of amusement in the following magic table of figures. It will enable you to tell how old the young ladies are. Just hand this table to a young lady, and request her to tell you in which column or columns her age is contained. Add together the fi- gures at the top of the coltmns in which her age is found, and you have thegreat secret. Thus suppose her age to be seventeen. You will 'find tho number seventeen only in two columns, namely, the first and fifth, and the first figures of these two columns make seventeen. Here is the magic table :- 1 2 4 8 16 82 8 8 5 9 17 88 5 6. 6 10 18 84 7 7 7 11 19 35 9 10 12 12 20 91) 11 11 18 18 21 87 18 ._14 14 14 22 88 15 15 1b 15 23 89 17 18 20 24 24 40 19 19 21 25 25 41 21 22 22 26 20 42 28 28 23 27 27 •43 '25 26 28 28 58 44 27 27 29 29 29 45 29 80 80 80 80 46 91 81 81 81 81 47 88 84 86 40 48 48 86 85 87 41 40 49 87 88 88 42 50 50 89 89 89 48 51 '51 41 42 44 44 52 52 43 48 45 45 53 58 45 40 46 46 54 54 47 47 47 47 55 55 49 50 52 66 56 56 51 51 53 57 57 57 58 54 54 58 ,58 58 56 55 55 59 59 59 57 58 60 60 6ti ' 60 59 59 61 61 61- 61 61 62 62 62 62 62 '68 63 68 68 63 63 NM. mHE W.
