THE RED NOSE.
A West Indian, who had a remarkably fiery nose, having fallen asleep in his chair, a negro boy who was in waiting, observed a musquitto hovering round his face. Quasi eyed the insect very attentively, at last he saw him alight on his master’s nose, and immediately fly off. ‘Ah! d——n your heart,’ exclaimed the negro, ‘me d——n glad see you burn your foot.’
