Diogenes was not in the wrong, who, when the great Alexander, finding him in the charnel-house, asked him what he was seeking for, answered, “I am seeking for your father’s bones, and those of my slave; but I cannot find them, because there is no difference between them.”

GETTING A JOURNEY.

By Dr. Kitchiner.

I GOT on horseback within ten minutes after I received your letter.  When I GOT to Canterbury, I GOT a chaise for town.  But I GOT wet through before I GOT to Canterbury, and I have GOT such a cold as I shall not be able to GET rid of in a hurry.  I GOT to the Treasury about noon, but first of all I GOT shaved and drest.  I soon GOT into the secret of GETTING a memorial before the board, but I could not GET an answer then; however, I GOT intelligence from the messenger that I should most likely GET one next morning.  As soon as I GOT back to my inn, I GOT my supper and GOT to bed.  It was not long before I GOT to sleep.  When I GOT up in the morning, I GOT my breakfast, and then GOT myself drest, that I might GET out in time, to GET an answer to my memorial.  As soon as I GOT it, I GOT into the chaise, and GOT home by three o’clock.
