DR. FULLER having requested one of his companions to make an epitaph for him, received the following: "_Here lies Fuller's earth_!" MDCXC.--AN INHOSPITABLE IRISHMAN. SIR BOYLE ROACH, the droll of the Irish bar, sent an amusingly equivocal invitation to an Irish nobleman of his acquaintance: "I hope, my Lord, if ever you come within a mile of my house, that you'll _stay there all night_." When he was suffering from an attack of gout, he thus rebuked his shoemaker: "O, you're a precious blockhead to do directly the reverse of what I desired you. I told you to make one of the shoes _larger_ than the other, and instead of that you have made one of them _smaller_ than the other!" MDCXCI.--GOOD ENOUGH FOR A PIG. AN IRISH peasant being asked why he permitted his pig to take up its quarters with his family, made an answer abounding with satirical _naivete_: "Why not? Doesn't the place afford every convenience that _a pig can require_?" MDCXCII.--FARCICAL. IN Bannister's time, a farce was performed under the title of "Fire and Water."--"I predict its fate," said he. "What fate?" whispered the anxious author at his side. "What fate!" said Bannister; "why, what can fire and water produce but a _hiss_?" MDCXCIII.--TOO MUCH AT ONCE. LORD CHESTERFIELD one day, at an inn where he dined, complained very much that the plates and dishes were very dirty. The waiter, with a degree of pertness, observed, "It is said every one must _eat a peck of dirt_ before he dies."--"That may be true," said Chesterfield, "but no one is obliged to eat it all _at one meal_, you dirty dog." MDCXCIV.--EPIGRAM. (On Bishop ----'s Religion.) THOUGH not a Catholic, his lordship has, 'Tis plain, strong disposition to a-mass (a mass). MDCXCV.--POSSIBLE CENSORS. DR. CADOGAN was boasting of the eminence of his profession, and spoke loudly against the injustice of the world, which was so satirical against it; "but," he added, "I have escaped, for no one complains of me."--"That is more than you can tell, doctor," said a lady who was present, "unless you know what people _say in the other world_." MDCXCVI.--A CONNUBIAL COMPLIMENT. A LADY, walking with her husband at the seaside, inquired of him the difference between _exportation_ and _transportation_. "Why, my dear," he replied, "if you were on board yonder vessel, leaving England, _you_ would be _exported_, and _I_ should be _transported_!" MDCXCVII.--DOUBLE SIGHT. A MAN with one eye laid a wager with another man, that he (the one-eyed person) saw more than the other. The wager was accepted. "You have lost," says the first; "I can see the _two_ eyes in your face, and you can see only _one_ in mine." MDCXCVIII.--WITTY AT HIS OWN EXPENSE.
