There is nothing that jars upon my feelings so much as one of your genuine horse laughs. It is like the rasping of a saw, or a sleigh running over bare ground. Yet people have got a most villianous habit ot laughing when I speak; why, I know not, unless it is that I never laugh myself. I find I am getting the charac ter of a wit. If the name is fairly fixed upon me, I should be most sadly temp ted to shoot myself. I fear I have said some amazingly silly things. I will be more circumspect for the future. My conversation is too light I shall take care to put more lead in it hereafter. Heigh ho ! heaven, knows ones words may be light when his heart is heavy. Made an experiment the other night to ascertain whether people laugV.ed at me, or at what I might happen to-eftyr Jack Would be-wit perpetrated a pun 6ome time not a smile company grim as death Jack looked blank. 'I'll wager a bottle of campaigne, Jack, that '111 .rehearse that sull-born effusion of yours to-morrow night at Madame' ' s party with unbounded applause ?" ' 'Done,' said Jack. And it was done raised a tremen dous laugli was stamped as a genuine coiu of wit had the good fortune "vir usu perora volitare' go into the news papers, and the last I saw of it was travelling down south, every body, by the way, claiming it for their own. What say you to that, Jack V 'True, true, but then you've got such a comical way with you.' Here then is the fault it must be mended I shall look to it. If there is any thing which from my soul 1 do loathe, it is that sickly, silly, silken sentimenalism, which has become among certain classes the ruling fash ' ion of the day-bah gar lick is nothing to u. i ne very tnonght occasions an involuntary rising of the stomach. And yet it meets meat every turn.. , Love tales, love songs and love talks swarrn around like the locust plagne of Egypt. How touching !' sighed the fair Miss Angelica, as 6he sang one of these senti mental strains all about disconsolate true-love. - Yes, indeed, said Miss Pastorealla, putting her handkerchief to yer eyes.

T senger, says the Lancaster (Pa.)-Inland, There is one thine which I hold in special abhorrence, and that is the be- ing dragged into an argument . on any subject or any occasion. I look upon that man who lays down litigated opin ion and calls upon me either to confute or assent to if, as 1 would upon a per son who should knock me down in the street, to ascertain, whether I had strength enough to redress myself; and 1 have thought it was a great pity the ponce couia not be canea upon m tne one case as well as the other. .

From the GoUshoro Tribune. JOHN S. DYE, BROKER. ... Publisher of Dye's Wall St. Broker, JV. IT. and chief cook and bottle washer in the American . Patent Safety Paper concern, whose reputed place of business is 70 Wall st., IV. Y.f is a SWINDLER. In April last he sent us an advertisement with in- . ! - tlt a siruxuons to puousn ana renuer bin quar terly at his office, 70 Wall st. Although we suspected hiin, we inserted the adver tisement, and near the end of the first quarter sent our bill, but received no res ponse. After waiting a while we sent the bill a second time, having been informed meantime by responsible parties in New York that he was a swindler. Soon after this he sends us certific-itas of shares fn a patent paper manufacturing concern, pla cingus in possession of $100 worth of stock. YVe at once returned the certificates not wishing to embark in the patent par er bu siness, and warned him at the same lime to send amount of our bill for first quarter's advertising, or we wovld give him an edi torial pvff. Yet no answer. As a last re sort we made out our bill and sent it to Messers, Vissener, Owen & Co , newspaper advertising agents New York, from whom we received this reply: ' Dye. "We return your bill against John S. We can do nothing with ' it. We have worn out a pair of boots hunting- him up, but could not find him. We are in formed, however, that he gays he does not pay any newspaper bills in cash (he is advertising very extensively) but offers stock in a patent pajier manvj'actorin g con- eern, wnich we are inclined to think is hum. bug. He sas those who will not take the slock now, will be glad to do so after a while, whsn "it goes up." Of this you can judge for yourselves," Now before concluding this first rate no lice, we wish to say td all Southern pub lishers that John SDyexa a SWINDLER, "who has no desire or intention to fulfil his contracts. We here lake leave of him and never expect to have occasicn to mention his name .again unless it should devolve upon us as journalists to chronicle his ad mission into the penitentiary at Sing Sinr. We trust all southern publishers will copy this notice or Call attention to it "in such manner as to prevent o- hers from be ing swindled as we have been. WIT AND HUMOR.
