: A Fbibnd of ours was who trareling on the West
Side train recently went into the smoking-car to
emjoy bis pipe. 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,
