AMusINo There was an amusing passage
in debate. on Friday, in the Senate Chamber
Mr.. Pauen--( hastily "Mr. President !"
there is no analysis between the case. CA gen
eral laagh) -
Mr. Patten---(thinking he had collared
good joke) al repeat. Mr.. President. there
is not the slightest analysis between the two
cases."


We think there is a slight analysis be-
tween the gentleman's use of English, and
what good lady of Buffalo, ambitious to be
considered clever, once told Gov. Throop. She
remarked, in relation to the weather, that il
was oery apt to be stormy when the sun passed
the Penobscot. Concord W. II. Statesman.
This is almost equal to the following pas
sage between two members of Western Leg
islature:


Mr.. A.-And this, sir, is a catamount to
denial.


Mr. B.-I suppose the gentleman means tan
tamount.


Mr.. A.-No, Mr.. President, mean cata-
mount As if didn't know that catamount
and tantamount were SYNONYMOUS.
