At a dinner recently given by a wellknown peer, one of the guests, a very young man, made himself obnoxious to the conviyes by persistently laying down the law on every possible subject, and talking long and loudly. At length he expressed, in no measured terms, his hatred of a cldss of people whom he called Philistines. An elderly gentleman fritting opposite to him, mildly enquired/ And pray, sir, how you define a Philistine?" The host here interposed, saying, " I will give you the explanation, Philistines are persons who are inconvenienced by the jaw of amass."
