B M was in the car, pretty well " set up," with whom the conductor had con siderable trouble. On arriring at Hillsboro M Bude a motion to get out The conductor, how trer, was too quick for him. Seising him by the llar, he thrust him back into his seat, with the cemark that he couldn't get any rum there. "La" get out," said he to the conductor ; "'tis a mar car of great's 'portanoe't I should get out 'tis a Jertune to me." "How so?" asked the conductor, Why, you see," replied M 'if I get out and take im'y two galatee mo', (Mo,) I shall own the whole ra'aoad." now Corns oamb to bb obkd. It Is somewhat lingular to trace the manner in which arose the use ! of the common bsrarage of coffee, without whioh j law persons in any half or wholly ciriliiad country la the world now make breakfast. At the time Columbus disooTered America it hnd never been known or used. It only grew in Arabia or Upper Utopia The disooTery of its um as a beverage is ascribed to the Superior of a monastery in Arabia, who, de sirous of preventing the monks from sleeping at their nocturnal services, made them drink the il lusion of coffee, on the reperts of shepherds, who observed that their flocks were more lively after browsing on the fruit of that plant Its reputation pread through the ad ao nt countries, a 1 in about two hundred years it had reached Paris. -'. A single plant brought there in 1714, became the parent stock of alt the French and Spanish coffee plantations in South America and the West Indies. The exteut of the consumption now can hardly be realised. The United States alone an nually consumes it at a cost on its landing, of from fifteen to sixteen millions of dollars, i Wbat CoifSTtTOTBi a Cab Load Nominally a ar-kA b 20,000 pounds.
