•‘My friend don't drink thnt filthy stuff; it’s your greatest enemy.”

“ Well, we ore commanded to love our enemies. So here goes.”

LOVE OUR ENEMIES AS OURSELVES.A PRACTICAL (o)lLL-US-TRATION

A cold water-faced champion of the Tea-total Temperance Cause, in oneof his visits for private exhortations, called upon a devout and independentlover of the enlivening distilation in all its varieties, who had means to live,

and who meant to lire upon his means. He loved brandy, because it madehim feel bran -new ; he loved champagne, because it made his pain all a

sham ; he loved to take in gin, because it strengthened his ingin-uity ; heeye-dol-ed a punch bowl, because it punched out his belly till it resembledthe precious hogsheads that contained it, and when he happened to reel to

the floor with the load of his proof spirits, his roundness enabled him to roll

in his glory. Our tea-total patriot upon entering his apartment which wasfairly lit up by the spirit-ual brightness of his nose, found our round-bellied

hero seated at his round table, christening his insides with punch, the steamof which went to the temperance champion’s nose like the rush from anengine flue pipe, and the long, and oft repeated speech he was about to

thunder forth, was caried off or stifled by the equally ardent fluid;so falling

from the great pitch he had worked himself up to, for the occasion, ex-claimed :

“ Friend, don’t drink that filth ; its your greatest enemy.” “ Well,”said the toper, pressing his glass to his lips, “ ain’t we commanded to love

our enemies, as ourselves 7”

long standing bill.The above exchange of words

is very fashionable on change,when creditors and collectors arej

in hunt of change. When ais presented to you, don’t changeyour notes, your countenance, norposition, and be careful to ex-

change as few words as possible ;

but above all, don’t change yourtemper at such times, or the fre-

quent change from very frequenti

dunning nights, cause your equili-

brium, impudence, and hardnessof face to be undone. Don’tfidget, or fumble with your watchchain, but instead of. making along apology, reply like our cool

little friend below, and come to

the long and short of the thingbv “I'm rather short to-day,”

this, if its the longest bill in

creation, will cut the matter short,

and thereby save time, tongue,

quibbling quivering, and equivo-

cation ; it gives ease to your mind,a hope to your creditor, whotakes|it as a polite invitation to call

again to-morrow, and should he-

do so, why you can still, as easily:

as before, pay him with a long

face, and in the same long note.

“ I’m rather short to-day.”” Then I’m (dun) done up.”

BOARDING A MAN OF WAR.OR, A BOARDER MAKING FREIGHT (FRIGHT) IN THE MESS-ROOM.

larder. Missus, that ere man-o’war boarder’s an out an out bore “ Bore,”

cried the astonished and sailor hitching landlady, “ he’s a perfeet hog ! he’ll

skippeiy cheese, an that ere quarter of tainted veal out; the grampus has

already devoured a leg o’ pork, a yard of rook-fish all but the head there,

as full o’ wind as a mainsail in a nor-wester; why, damme, that only serves

as caulk for one’s holler mouth guns, (shewing his immense battery of teeth.)

Cooks, ahoy ! stir up your caboose, I say, and give us more allowance below

here !” and Jack continued stowing away a ham by pound slices, while the

two cooks, the maid and mistress stared and gazed with wonder and exas-

peration;even the very pudding that Jack had bawled out for, made a face

as fearing a sudden devouration. “Bear a hand there,” bellowed the tar again“ don’t you see my stores are nearly out, hardly a crumb in the mess-room and

I I’m as hungry as a South Sea Cannibal.” “ You ugly, greedy, grumbling,

overgrown glutton of a sea monster,” cried the landlady in a rage, “ you’re

eating us up, cookings, cooks, and all, what do you mean ?” “ Mean,” cried

Jack, “ why, guns and boarding pikes, I’m only showing you how to boarda Man-o’-war.,’

JONATHAN. WILD.OR, UNCLE SAM IN A RIZ o’ INDIGNATION.

You see Brother Jonathan here with his

Yankee grit up ; he's nation wild at the

affairs o’ the nation, and he swears by all

darnation, that thar’s no safe speculation for

any patentation, for all's ruination and bus

tificatinn, and all through humbugation he

can make no kalkela ion on fair legislation,

for in every station it's all grabberation,

and a great jabberation about the right o’

visitation from Johnny Bull's nation, to

commit plundcration without justification

on my salt water navigation; but I’ll

build a hull creation o' war boats for each

station where I hold communication, an

I’ll lam John Bull fair-ation by a thun-

derin visitation of hot iron ministration, an

show no determination against all bully-

ation, to stand no quibhle.ition, and protect

from violation my boats in every station,

I nr use up all creation in just rctalliation, I

;

will by all darnation ! for I am Jonathan

;o’ the nation, wild with vexation at the de-

! ranged procrastenalion of our adminis-

|tration, that has siled (soiled) my repula-

Ition by their darned no-go-she-a-shin

!(negotiation )

with folks of rank and-

, ^station, over wines and costly ration, in a

^T^ii^n, (conciliation) on the right of searcheration; when a

leetle demonstration, of honest representation and native indignation, could

without confabulation, have brought us reparation and settled deputation

without more botheration or tongue comboberotion, and restored tranquili-

zation, my broad farms cultivation, an trade an speculation of our nations sole

salvation.

I'm a hull menagerie when I get wild, an

no crittur, man nor bull, can tame me, either

by coaxin or driven, till I get what I want,

an I wan’t all I can get, for I’m like all civi-

lization, human nalur to the back bone.

The Latest Intelligence,“Och! they may talk o’ their telegraphs,

their express mails, their locomotive news

carriers and couriers, but we are the only

boys that give out the latest intelligence, for

nothing can be later than past twelve o’clock

at night in the morning, sure, an that same

is ticklish news to some folks, it tells the

thief that Charley is about, an that he better

steal himself home, or he may get cold steal

on him ; it tells the tavern keeper that its

time to shut up his grogery, (but notafoie he

gives us a dram,) for fear he may get shut up

for keeping open at the latest intelligence; it

tells the lover to leave off his court und ship

home up the alley ; it tells the town larks

that its the time o’ day to go to bed if they

want to sleep all night and rise early in the

morning.
