fl Hogsty Disgraced. following anecdote is extracted from all address deli vered before the temperance society in Bris- tol, Connecticut:-" A certain person whose reiatiUe gave me the information, returning home one evening intoxicated, mistook his hogsty for his dwelling house, and in attempt ing to enter it, little error in calculating the comparative height of the door-sill and his toes, caused him to make speedy fall at full length within. Instantly relieved from the burden of carrying his head highest, he gave himself up to the full enjoyment of drunken inaction. Startled at this abrupt intrusion, the inmates of the sty had made precipitate retreat to the remotest part of it; but seeing no further movement they began to reconnoi- tre the animal which had surprised them by conduct so much more grovelling than their own and, by degrees, ventured to approach him, they came up around him at length, and commenced closer examination, by gently roofing him up alternately on each side. This hoisting by the swine, at length became so violent, as rather to disturb him; at which time the comfortable condition in which he imagined himself may be conceived, from the exclamation he sluggishly uttered:-Do leave o6tncking If, and come to 6ed."
