A Western editor has placed over his marriage heading a cut representing a large trap, sprung, with the motto, "The 1 "trap down $ another ninr-y caught." A cardinal happening one day to have a dispute with the Duke of Merome, the quarrel rose to a great height. "Do you know," said the prince, "that your father was my father's swinesherd ?" "I know it well," answered the cardinal; "and lam persuaded, that had your highness been my father's son, you would have been a swine* herd to this day. :> A gentleman having got out of all patience with oue of his servants, an Irishman, called him in, and after giving him a sound scolding, wound up with a stereotyped phrase, "We must part," The servant stood scratching his head for a moment, and then said, with a look of much concern, "Sorry am I that me must part, yer honour ; but if we must, may I make so bowld as to ask where your honor's going."
