A Marketman.

A MARKETMAN at Cairo, a few days since, was swindled out of his vegetables and articles, which had a tendency to excite his ire to a considerable extent. He told the commanding officer there that if the Angle Gabriel stopped at Cairo their would be no resurrection.

"Why?" asked the officer.

"Because the people would swindle him out of his horn before he had time to make a single toot."
