APl’LYI.\’G THE PRINCIPLE.
A brace of legs, thrust considerably too
for through a pair of mottled pants, and
attached to a couple of the largest size
fect which were encased in twin cowhide
brogaiis, formed the underpinning too long,
slab sided body,._of oilierwise generous
proportions~—tl‘.e whole being surmounted
by a head, which was covered with a grey
“five year old’ —(at least) seal skin cap.
This sum total—legs, pants, feet, shoes,
body and cliapeau-—-was the property, by
possession, of Mr. Zenas Humpun.
Zenas had been on “ii but" during the
night previous, and had squandered full
halfa dollar on himself, at the white eye
and sweetning. But his returning senses
had made him feel pliilosopliical——and, on
the morning we speak of him, he stood,
at an early hour, in — street, gazing ine-
chanically at the Telegraph wires—solil-
oquising.
"——’iel That's the telcg.-u_fl‘—-\V—-'ic—-

said an urchin in the_doorwoy near by.
“W’en does she, ’ic——stnrt !"
“You’d better ax in tbar.”
“Whar 7.”
“In the oflice, up tbar.” :
The loafer was shown to tlielicad of the
building, and “by book and crook” f0llI_‘.(I
his way up three flight of stairs into the
Telegraphic oflice. The attendants enquir-
ed “what the gentleman bad to forward'!’’
“Foi-’ed ?——’ic who's she I"
“Send wliar 7."
“This is the Tc-legrapli oflice, sir.”
“VVell,’ic——-\vlio’n thunder said it wnsnt.”
“I supposed you liadbusiness, SII'.'\_‘i'«_"
‘Notliin’ o’ the sort——'ic—-quite the re-
verse o’ the contrairy.” '
“What will you have I"
“I wont to make some--’ic———quirics."
Thc hour being early, and little doing,
the clerks very charitnbly determined upon
some fun with the fellow, with a view ‘to
sobering him. fhe opportunity for any
thing gratuitous escaped them, however,
for as they commenced a consultation upon
the best means to benefit the intruder, he
stepped up to one of the batteries, which
hnppe ned, fortunately to be but little
cbnrged—and, concluded that the knobs
were portable, he pulled his cap over his
forehead and attempted to move one of the
balls ; the next moment Zenas lay stretch-
ed upon the floor! .
He arose, as best he could, and turned
to the clerk, with- . .
“Look yore, Mister--’ic-—wot’s--yure

penny towards ' the attendant, which lay
[upon the niachine—-his fingers came in
icontact with the battery, and away l.e went
again, heels over head, across the floor!
“Look yere !" continued the sufferer,
who, by this time, \I as well nigh sobered,
“od blast youre infeznal pictur, wot in
thunder are you about T." “You inustn’t
luindle the tools”——observed the clerk,
nearly biirstihg with laugliter.

“Tbat's the door, sir.”
“That brass handle 7.”
"Yes.” "
“Pin blowed if you do, though! This
child don’t meddle with no nioie liiirdivarc
in this trap, no how !”
The door was opened by the clerk, and
the fellow sidled out. A suppressed laugh
pervaded the countenance of the attendant,
as Zenas depaited—wliicli, as the door
closed, vented itself in ii broad haw-liaw.
“You're asm_art young cliap—-you are !”
bowled the loafer, through the , l.ey hole,
as he held the door fast with both, bands,
"you're a very smart young man! ‘You'd

ncously——fcr notliin'—I will”—and, from
the preparations making on the outside,
the prospect was that the “insiders" were
to be made prisoners.
A thought struck the attendant. He
disconnected the wire, and placing it in
contact with the knob of the door on the
inside, his companion let on the battery !
The door flew open instantaneously, and
our valia n't stranger, with the seal skin
was discovered in the act of an ami angu-
lar descent down stairs, the side of his
liead- scraping the paint from the edges of
the steps, and his legs, mean time, per-
forming an involuntary piroutte. which

It so chanced that Zenas had purchased
a bunch of lncifcr matches the niglit be

pocket. In his progress down stairs, the
matches had become ignited, and by the
time he had reached the bottom of the first.
flight, he had partially recovered from the
first effects of the “shock”—bat the fluid
tingled through his veins, his coat tails
were on fire, and he was not “set forward”
in his iinagination any, by this last effort
of his tormenters. He discovered the fire,
and presuming it was part and parcel of
the “cussed invention”-—lie sprang to his
feet, and with both hands briskly at work
behind him, for the purpose of smothering
the flame, which was roasting the seat 0
his inexpressibles—lie “put.” for the street
door at full gallop!
“Fire! Fire! llclp! yere! Ow! mur-
der—fire! help!’-’ shouted the victim, as
he darted into the street.
Away he dashed towards Baltimore, at
a speed which the “lightnin’ line” itself
might have been proud of. Luckily, a
square off, he discovered a servant, with
ii hose attached to one of the hydrants,
busily engaged in washing off the pave-
ment. He raslied to the spot, and turning
short. before bim—-—a paster1.'ari—he begged
him, at the top of his voice, “for God's
sake” to “put him out !"
Perhaps his sable fricnd’s eye didn’t glis-
ten, and may be his ivory didn’t. shine, as
he chnritably turned “the currant of that
stream" upon the unmcntionable portion
of that poor devil's netlierments. “The
fire was extinguished without serious dam-
age,” as the papers say——tbe loafer was
thoroughly saturated--and having exchang-
ed his. “heavy inside wet” for a skin drench-
ing, he departed, perfectly sober, amidst
the jcers of the crowd who had witnessed
the finale, most vociferously cursing al
improvements in magnetism and combus-
tibles.

From the New York Tribune.
THE REVOLUTION OF I846’.
One year ago, only the States of Mas-
sacliasctts, Connecticut, Vermont, Rhode
lsland, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland,
North Carolina, Georgia, Kentucky and
Oliio—-—eleven in all, entitled to cast 102
electoral votes-—in any manner adhered to
the \Vhig standard. Of these, N. Jersey,
Maryland, North Carolina and Georgia,
together casting 38 electoral votes, were
confidently claimed, and by no means with-
out plausible reasons, as either friendly to
the new administration or at any rate giv-
ing no majority against it on the popular
vote. Thus we bade adieu to 1845.
The year 1846 has witnessed the devel-
opment of its policy by the Federal Ad-
ministration, backed by very strong ma-
,jorities in the two Houses of Congress, re-
,spectively. The Annexation of Texas
films been consumated ; the claim that said
Texas rightfully extends to the R. Grande
has been adopted and enforced by our ru-
-lers; War has been made upon Mexico in
pursuance thereof, her territory invaded,
and her armies discomfited; the sub treas-
ury has been enacted; the tariff of 184-2
has been broken down and one avowedly
anti-protective enacted in its stead——in
short, the principles of James K. Polk and
his advisers have been carried into effect.
,The People have witnessed all these
things, have considered them, and passed
‘upon them. \Vliat is the general result I
, Connecticut, by a minority vote, obtain-
ed through the direct influence of Rum,
has chosen locofoco State Officers, but a
,plurality of several hundreds and an ag-
i . . « .
-gregate majority of several thousands de.
clarc her still emphatically hostile to the
Federal Executive and his course. The
,more‘ recent town elections have shown
that the accidental ascendency which
made Mr. Toucey Governor has long since
evaporated. Georgia has elected a. bal-
anced Delegatied to Congress by a bal-
anced popular vote, showing »a decided
l Whig gain since 1844-, and no material
zcbange since 1845. On the other band.
‘Vermont, Rhode Island, New Jersey, N.
‘Carolina, Maryland and Kentucky are still
Whig by increased and powerful majori-
iios, and Ohio is indisputably Whig; while
New Hampshire, Maine, Pennsylvania,
Florida and New York, casting seventy eglii
electoral votes, have declared for the Whig‘
cause, usually by very decisive majorities,
and we hope Michigan is preparing tojoin
them. Is not this an extraordinary change
to take place during the earlier half’ of
a new adininistrntion '! b
