He was so extraordinarily po lite as to attract public attention, while, jadging by the »ppearance of his face, he had a@ bappy heart. Postically speaking. he “ basked in sunshine Nine o’clock at night, We saw thissame man grasping a lamp post, on — venue—the late scene of his sober eplay—and, bis voice being ling, and bis body exceedingly limber, picion was natu-ally excited that he was either painfully fatigued with his day’s Promenading, or had been afternoontng with a few select friends! We attentively watched this citizen. Anon. he relaxed his grasp of the lamp post, and pitching and sig sagcirg toward a uouse,eame pear bumping his head agai st the tenement! Whirling, and with difficulty keeping on his legs, he reached the gutter, on the east side of Seventh street where he commenced the delivery of an incoherent address: ‘ That’s the figure!’ he exclaimed, at the end of a sentence, clapping bis hands convulsively ; and at that moment his pedesials gave way, and down he fell into the mud; first, in a sitting posture and afterward at fall length. That was ‘the figure,” indeed—comiecal, and yet mournful. With extreme difficulty he re- gained his footing. and staggered from the neizhborhood. What a contrast between his conduct in the merning and at night!

Insuttrsa Feaacts —Mr. Editor : I avail myself of the columns of your interesting and extensively read paper to call attention to the practice which prevails among certain ant- mais, wearing the form of man, of insulting females, if alone, while walking in open day light the streets of our city. Has it not come to ® pretty pass, indeed, in this age of decenoy and refinement, that th: gentler sez cannot walk our most public thoroughfares, either on businersr‘or pleasure, even bef:rs the god of day has sunk to his couch in the west, with- out feeling the dread that during their prom enade they are likely to be insultingly ac- costed by some one of the many deaets in hu- msn shape that prowl every avenue of our oi seeking whem they may devour. r. Editor, the foregoing is written with the hope that it may reach the eye of the psssypeeeee who had the consummate impu lence, in an insulting manner, to acoost a lady while sho was walking, yesterday afternoon, in the vicinity of the President's Mansion, and that he may profit Se timely notice of his dastardly conduct.
