Con. for the Pbince.— Why is a young lady enjoying her souchong like Prince Alfred's ship ? — Because it is the gal-at-tea — eh ? (G-alatea.) The " luxury of grief." This, I take it, means to have yure old unkle die and leave yu £2000, and yu cry. — Josh Billings. " Why were you not up with the lark this morning, as I last night told you to be, sir !" said an irate father to his sluggard son. " The reason I was not up with the lark this morning, was because I ' was on a lark last night, sir."
