A correspon dent of the Charleston Mercury, under the above heading has some new ideas about noses. Read what he says about a man asleep; "No! It is tins man's necessity that he should sleep in this manner. Yu perceive that his nose is dreadfully small and insjgnificsn', hearing no s-rt of proportion to his jaws, nnd his physical development generally. He ts a monstrous big fellow, wiifi a mere button on his lace, instead of a proboscis. Such persons can'i sh ep exc pi with mouth open. H's breathing apparatus n quires it. A nse is great necessity with a full grown ani. mal. You do not forget ( am sure, that Nap'tb-on would never employ a person about him, having i an insignificant nose. He contended that each person were always incapable of thinking justly, and acting wisely, apd moreover, tjat their tem. pers were always sour and disagreeable. And I agree with Inm. My experience is to the same effect. 1 thank my stars that I have a rudder lo my face which is quite adequate to the safe steer ing of my vessel.' And Dillon stroke his proboscis as he spoke, with the air of a man whose pride was fully justi fied by the amplitude of his possession. A terrible snort and start from the sleeppr. at this moment, arrested our further handling of this delicate subject. I mink it likely that his nose had sme secret instinct that made tt conscious of the liberties we were taking from it; for, in an other second, the owner started up in his sea'., 9; took his shaggy head, (fiery red like his beard.) nd l.-oking savagely about him. His nose was vid nily sensitive on the su'j'-ct of its six". To pKBsi.nyts SwkT Corv.
