HE is not vicious, and he has no special malice in his heart, but his thoughtlessness leads to more human misery than results from the premeditated wickedness of a deliberate transgressor. On Saturday he scattered orange peel on the stairs and lobby of our building, and continued this along down the street as he went, occasioning several strains and one severe fall as his victims incautiously trod thereon. He belongs to a large family, all of which throw banana skins and orange peel upon the pavement, not for the express purpose of endangering the life or limbs of the wayfarers, but because they have in their hearts no thoughtful regard for human welfare. His brother is the man who carries an umbrella over his shoulder, with the point well back, which describes an arc of three feet as he swings his body in walking. Several persons have been injured in the face, one nearly lost his eye, and a number of lesser grievances have been inflicted through his habit, although he will not stop the practice unless it is made criminal by the act of the Legislature. His own cousins, quite a number of them are the men who cross their legs in the cars and omnibus, thus wiping their feet on the dresses and pantaloons of their fellow passengers. One of them is generally found in the cabin of the ferry-boat, either near the door or the narrow passage by the wheelhouse, where his protruded boots trip every passer who does not go by him with great care. He would not put his feet on the floor and draw them in a little while the throng goes by, to procure a life-membership in any one of the great benevolent societies he so fondly patronizes in his Sunday contributions. His more distant relatives who stand tatling with a friend in the middle of the sidewalk, thus greatly obstructing the travel, or saunter slowly up the street with curved elbows, or whisk through a crowd with a cane under their arms, are all recognized without any further description. They are a large family, and they are nuisances in whatever community they take up their abode.—N. Y. Journal of Commerce.
