Faiewtexixa tus Wrong SENGER.— Bome years ago, when the old steamer Ivan- hoe, Caps. Jimmy German, used to ran from Savanah to Auguste, the incident we are about so relate cecurred, and was witnessed by our Teporter. When the Ivanhoe arrived at Au- gusta, a countryman was seen standing onthe wharf, dressed in homespun, his coat fitting #0 tightly across his shoulders as to raise his arms scveral inches higher than nature in- tended them to hang. His appearance gener- ally would indicate that he was directly from the Okefonoke, ssi the first we in ; bors was gazing upon things pertaini civiliza- bom Howia what our bostmen termed ‘-a comieal customer.’’ He had never seen a steamboat, nor dreamed of a locomotive. The Sppesrance of the bridge seemed to be more than he could realize as fact, and the steam- boat unmsnoned him. Our boatmen drew him inte conversation, and were 2s much amused with his remarksas his sppearance. They got him on board the steamer, and thought they had engaged fan enough for several trips. One of the officers of the boat, named——, was pe- culiarly iond of a practical joke, and deemed the opportunity too to be log. He as- sured his comrades that he had a plan by which he intended te make Johnny Green jamp over- board. He accordingly brought eut a hideous looking bowie knife. which was ia his posses- siow, and, assuming a perfect swashbuckler air, approached the countryman, saying— “T've tound you at last, my man—I’vye been looking for you:’’ and throwing himself into ® position indicating an assault, had no soan- er got within arm’s iength of the enemy than he found himself stretched upon the deck and hia knife in the possession of the foe, who fell upon him and gave him # most merciful beat- log—disabling bim so asto render it necessary for him to take to his bed and keep it. When the couutryman was satisfied that he had giv- én him enough, he a amidst the astonished Yookers on, who had so mistake his charactor, and ex:laimed—'' Gentlemen isthere any oth- er manin your boat alookin’ forme?” They answered Lim that there was not, and allowed him to isave faily satisfied that they had got the worst of the joke. ~ wpilieness oceneeataee x Acnrenie Dixnxer.—l asked him if he new that (teseral Giavella I met at King Otbo’s dinner, and had thought a superier sort of maz.
