" My ribs," replied his lordship, " which I have not felt for many years until now." INCREDIBLE. Sheridan made his appearance one day in a pair of new boots ; these attracting the notice of some of his friends, " Now guess," said he, " how I came by these boots?" Many probable guesses then took place. " No !" said Sheridan, " no, you've not hit it, nor ever will — I bought them and paid for them !" SPIRITUAL AND SPIRITUOUS. Dr. Pitcairn had one Sunday stumbled into a Presbyterian church, probab...ly to beguile a few idle moments (for few will accuse that gentleman of having been a warm admirer of Calvinism), and seeing the parson apparently overwhelmed by the importance of his subject : — " What makes the man greet?" said Pitcairn to a fellow that stood near him. " By my faith, sir," answered the other, "you would perhaps greet, too, if you were in his place, and had as little to say." "Come along with me, friend, and let's have a glass together ; you are too good a feUow to be here," said Pitcairn, delighted with the man's repartee.
