For the Southerner.
DEDICATED TO WILLIE E. PENNINGTON
BY A PHRENOLOGIST.
The world has stood for many years,
Aud millions have been born therein,
Though seas and mountains, lakes and shores,
Have changed since this great work began.
Thy mighty brain, Oh! who can tell!
The wondrous work it may perform.
To-day, a prisoner in a cell,
To-morrow Monarch on a throne.
While resting on thy mother's lap, '
Thou may est with-hold within thy breast,
Some thought, some power, that may give,
To sullering millions countless rest.
It is not him, whose path is strewn.
With flowers cosy soft and white,
On whom depends the world's great jry,
Or fountains gushing forth with light.
A Uttered garment may conceal,
A heart as pure as driven snow,
And yet, Alas! how oft we feel,
The' pangs of this most bitter w oe.
To sueh we owe our joys and hopes,
Though often scorned in lifc's sLot time,
A Homer's Iliad, will be read,
Though Homer begged in every clime.
Tlu- hand that pens these lines to thee,
Will no more rest upon thy head,
And yet, I know thou will be great,
When I'm slumbering with the Utai1
Now Willie, let this ode of mine,
Inspire thy soul to greatness be,
And when Pin numbered with the dead,
All that I ank Kemember me.

'Your employer is a nice person,
Bridget, and you cannot do too much

the innocent repty.
A lady asked a gentleman how
old he was. lie replied, 'What you

age ? XL.
A young man blamed his barber
for cuttinn; ofl'hit moustache. The
barber said he 'didn't see it.'
'I wish you would pay a little at
tention to wmt 1 am Baying, sir,
roared a lawyer at an exasperating
wi'.ness. '1 am paying as little as
I can,' was the calm reply.
'Can you work miracles?' asked
Mr. Skeptic at a camp-meeting.
The brethren kicked him off .he
grounds with the reply, 'We can
cast on devils.'
'Where were your children born?
asked a ceasus-taker. 'One was
born downstairs, sir, and another

At a country store, devoted to
hardware and furniture, two ladies
asked for cradles, The clerk said
all were sold, as it was a little out
of season. The ladias looked, and
laughed, and as they left the store,
said, 'Out of season ! We thought
babies were always in season.'
A Gentleman-who rather suspec

the key-hole of his office, investi

sauce, and went home to find his
wife had boen cutting wood and a
chip had hit her in the eye.
'Are you an Odd Fellow?' 'No,
sir, I've been married for a week.'
'I mean do you belong: to the Order
of Odd Fellows?' 'No7 no; I belong
to the order of married men.'
'Mercy, how dumb? Are you a
Mason?' 'No, I'm a carpenter bw
trade.' "Wors and worse? Are
you a Son of Temperance?' 'Bother
you ! no; I'm a son of Mr. John
Goslings.'
An Irishman was brought up
before a Justice of the Peace on a
charge of vagrancy, and was thus
questioned: 4Vhat trade are you?'
'Sure, now yer Honor, I'm a sailor.'
'You are in the sea-farina: mQ I
question whether you have ever been
to sea in your life.' 'Sure now,
and does yer honor think I came
over from Ireland in a waggin?'
'Commit him commit him.'
Two loafers met upon the street
the other day, and passed the com
pliments of the season. 'Jim' said
one, 'have you seen Hall? he's look
ing for you.' 'Hall, what Hall?'
was Jin's answer. 'Why, alcohol,
you fool!' 'Pshaw' responded Jim,
'that's a poor sell, and you wouldn't
have caught me if I hadn't been
hurt last night when John tripped
me up,' 'John who?' said Jim.
'Demijohn, you numbskull.'
