How glorious is this invention OF writing, where
by we can easily communicate TO absent friends,
whatever may afford them pleasure or improvement"


One Of those downright-upright characters,
who say they can take 9 a glass or so'' with
out taking too much, carried the so SO far once,
that il laid him asleep under fence, and a
turkey -buzzard took him Tor dead instead of
being only dead drunk.


The buzzard eyed him, to see which eye it
was best to pick out first; and taking one Of
those long lopes, SO peculiar 10 these interest
inc specimens of ornllhology, when they
change their position in the least, disturbed
dream OF our hero, about the bird OF Jove, or
the American Eagle. or the Russian Eagle
with two heads" seeing double" as all do
in certain stages Of 50 sosm. He opened one
of the eyes that the buzzard was eyeing,
and said, !" Don't you think you have come
little too soon, old hoss"


The buzzard sloped few lazy flaps Of
his wings off he was neither scared nor disap
ponted. His feast was only deferred not
lost. A few more glasses or So" and then
