Fat Among the Quakers.
One evening Pat chanced to drop into
■ quiet meeting house belonging to the
Quakers, and being rather astonished as
to what manner of people it was, resolved
to remain quiet and bide the course of
events. Ilo behaved himself with remark
able decorum, until a young broad-brim,
no doubt moved by the spirit, arose, ond
in a somewhat unusual tone informed his
hearers, "I have married a wife," evident
ly being about speaking in meeting from
this ns his text.
Pat was excited, and callod out :
"The divil yc have !"
This interruption rather confused the
young man ; hut be continued : "I have
married a daughter of the Lord."
This was too much for our Emerald
Islander who exclaimed: Sit down, ye
spalpeen !—It'll be a long timo before ye'll

Pope, whose "bodily presence" was
anything hut imposing—indeed, whose
physical infirmity was such as to prevent
the little poetical prodigy from inaiatain
itig an erect position—was, on one occa
sion (while translating Homer), engaged
with sotno friends (in Wills' Coffee House)
discussing a knotty passage in tho latter.
The result was not satisfactory. A young
army officer, who had been attentively
listening to the disoussion, somewhat im
pertinently remarked, "All that is wautod
is a note of interrogation." "And pray,
young gentleman," asked Pope, "what is
a notoof interrogation ?" "A HttlocraoA
