S. Young (late of the Court House Hotel) has assumed the management of the Queen's Hotel, Corner of Albert and Queen-streets, where he will be happy to receive a visit from his old friends.—Advt.
The Wife's Secret.—Her opinion of her husband.
An Evident Fiction.—Some drummers on a train from Boston to Portland recently wished to open a bottle of whiskey they had with them, but had ao corkscrew. " I'll get one, 1' said one of the number, and, rising, he called out, "Is there a gentleman from Portland on the train ? " A gentleman responded. "Will you lend me your corkscrew ? " said the drummer. The corkscrew was forthcoming. (This is a very pretty story, but the idea of a Boston drummer being without a corkscrew is a little too absurd.)— American Paper.
