THE RURAL NEW-YORKER. 
A little girl where a minister had been 
invited to dinner, was privately placed on her 
good behavior. Finding a lull in the conver¬ 
sation at the tea table, she folded her hands 
and said, “ O God, please pass the butter.” 
" Mamma, I don’t think the people who make 
dolls are very pious people," said a little girl 
to her mother, one day. ‘'Why not, my child ?” 
“ Because you can never make them kneel. I 
always have to lay my doll down on her stom¬ 
ach to say her prayers.’’ 
A schoolmistress, while taking down the 
names and ages of her pupilB and the names 
of their parents at the beginning of the term,

name; he’s too old to go to school to a woman,” 
was the reply. 
When Oxford University conferred on Long¬ 
fellow the degree of D. C- L., an under-grad¬ 
uate called out for "three cheers for the red 
man of the West.” Which goes along with a 
story the late Thomas Corwin, a member of 
President Fillmore's Cabinet, used to tell of 
himself. At an English reception given in his 
honor, an elegant lady kindly inquired of the 
rather dark-complexioned American : " Is 
your tribe at peace with the whites ?” 
A man who married a scold witnessed the 
play of “ Taming of the Shrew” the other night 
for the first time. He went home full of Inward 
chuckles, aud mentally resolved that he would 
also embark in the "taming” business before 
the sun again glided the western horizon. So 
the next morning he procured a cart-whip and 
when his wife ordered him to take his feet oil 
the mantel-piece, he snapped the whin defiant¬ 
ly, smashed a coffee pot. a sugar bowl, a dollar 
pitcher and two plates, and—and that was all. 
lie says Shakespeare was a colossal fraud, and 
he is is glad he is dead .—Norristown Herald.
