We'll never give up the table, John We must not part with that, For you and I these twenty years Around its board have sat. Its form a circle was at first, Quite large enough for two : You carved and served the meat to me, And I the tea to you. Our simple china, neat a nd clean, Our damask as white as snow, With fragrant coffee steaming hot, And biscuits light, you know : Aud year by year, care, one, two, three, Have added to it been ; The one so small and circular No longer nsw is seen. The shape, you know, is oblong now, With rows on either side Of heads of our dear chikheu, John Our comfort and our pride. Some have arrived at man's estate, And forced sometimes to roam ; But ever do their minds recall The table spread at home. Yes, let us keep the table, John, And dine and sup for aye Upon its well-kept cherry boards, Until our latest day. 'Twill ever serve to keep in mind The happy days of yore, When friends and kindred sat arcund And shared its bounteous store. PERSIMMON BLOSSOMS Subscribe to the Southerner. The cry "Go wost" has changed. An editorial article in a Western paper is headed, "Hop Yeast' A Vincennes photographer adver tises: "Babies taken and finished in ten minutes'' which ia rough on the babie?. The editor of an Eastern paper says that many of his patrons would make good wheel horses, they hold back so well. Some outrageous fellow has started the story that striped stockings contain poison when they only contain limbs. "Patrick, where'a the whisky I gava you to dean the window with ?"' "Och, master, I just drank it ; and I thought if I breathed on the glass it would be all tho same." At a collection made at a charity fair a lady offered the plate to a rich man well known for stinginess. "I have nothing," was the curt reply. "Then take something, sir," said the lady, "you know I am begging for tho poor. Tho way the little roosters do swing themselves around at niht and knock the ashes oif their cigars is a caution to older heads: and then when they step up and p-jur out the rod liquor, the reporter hunts up his littlo biblo and renews his vow. lie couldn't too the point sslio fel low who was teliiug some friends about a wcr.derf'il parrot in town.

Paddy bit it in two, opened his mouth, made a faco and said : "Do mo sowl, I'll go before any Jedge or jury in the wur reld an' tako mo oath dhat the hin that led that egg had the dyspipsy or heartburn." Brown caxo homo late the other night, and Mrs. B., reaching out of the bedroom window, said: "So you've been tipping thj glass again, have you?" "Glass," said Brown "(hich)" this is a funny word ; take off the g' and it's you my dear." "Yes," answered the wife, "and then take off tho T and its it's you, you wretch," and she slammed down the window with a bounce. A little boy, when picking the drum stick of a chicken swallowed one of the tendons which are so numerous in the legs of a fowl, and was very nearly choked. Tho tendon was, how ever, extracted with great difficulty from tho little fellow's throat when he said ; Oh, mamma ! it wasn't the chickabiddy's fault. It was because cook forgot to take off its garters.' A certain clerk in a western vil lage recently made the following commment on Pocahontas. Said he : "Pocahontas was a groat man : Po cahontas was a kind-hearted and true man." 'Hold on,' cried his compan ion, "Pocahontas was a woman." "She was, eh ?" said he, "well, that's just my luck. How am I expected to know ? I never read the Bible." A frirnd of ours had a birthday re cently, and while speaking to a Ger man musician of his absent friend with whom he would have likod to reunite on the joyous occasion, the man of music asked how old he was. "Thirty-one," replied our friend. "Dirty-one ! Oh, nix. You is more as dot." "No; I was born in 1844." "1844? Ah, now I hafe got you putty got," said ho in triumph. "How so ?" "Because you dold me more as five years ago dot you was born in 1844." A farmer was yesterday walking around tho Market trying to find some chap willing to go into the country and do a little work for good pay, when a colored man accosted him saying : "Boss, does you wont some one to husk corn ?" "Yes ; I have been looking all the morning for somo one." "What's tho pay ?" 'Til give one dollar a day. "And board?" "Yes." "And Havana cigars to smoke ?" "I I guess' so," stammered the farmer. "An' a coal stove right close aroun' dar whar the corn is ?" " No ; I never heard of a stove in a corn field." "Well, if dar's no etovo out dar, you can't coax dis chile along !
