"I must be after finding a boarding place," said Benjamin to the owner of the boat, as he was about leaving. "I do not know where to go any more than the man in the moon. Are you acquainted here?" "Scarcely at all; could not be of any service to you any way on that line," the owner answered. "Goin' to stop some time in Philadelphy?"
We was all walkin' along the river bank, and some o' the Flock got to complainin' because he hadn't fetched the New Jerusalem down yit, and wantin' to know when he was goin' to do it, and sayin' this was Philadelphy, and why didn't he; and Mr. Hingston he was tryin' to pacify 'em, and Mr.
I was fixin myself up to attend the great war meetin', when my daughter entered with a young man who was evijently from the city, and who wore long hair, and had a wild expression into his eye. In one hand he carried a port-folio, and his other paw claspt a bunch of small brushes. My daughter introduced him as MR. SWEIBIER, the distinguished landscape painter from Philadelphy.
When we had the scrape with the Hamburghers, in Philadelphy, it's now coming thirty years, " "Never mind all that just now, Moses. I wish you to pay my bill here; give Neb the small bag of my clothes to bring up to the gaol, and keep my other effects under your own care. Of course you will come to see me, by-and bye: but I now order you not to follow us."
"Sit still and make yourself comfortable, Labe," he went on. "I'll tell Zuba you're here." "What's your hurry? Give me a chance to catch my breath. I lugged that dunnage bag," indicating the valise, "from the depot up here, and I feel as if I'd strained every plank in my hull. Ought to go into dry dock and refit, I had. I landed in Philadelphy a week ago," he continued.
"Wal," said the citizen, critically, "if you was from Philadelphy or Boston, you might stand acquitted." Stephen was on the point of claiming Boston, but wisely hesitated. "I'm from St. Louis, with a message for Mr. Lincoln," he replied. "Ye talk like y e was from down East," said the citizens who seemed in the humor for conversation.

I suggested to him that if he could induce the citizens of Philadelphy to believe it would be a good idea to have white winder-shutters on their houses and white door-stones, he might make a fortin. "It's a novelty," I added, "and may startle 'em at fust, but they may conclood to adopt it.
"I guess that air prime," said Mr Lathrope; "but I've hed enuff v'yging fur a spell, and I kinder kalkerlate I'll make tracks to hum. I don't mind either, darkey, if I take you along o' me! I've got a fust-rate brown-stone front in Philadelphy, and I'll chuck you in as cook, if you like, hey?" "Golly, massa, you don't mean dat, suah!" "Guess I dew," said the American deliberately.
But if ye are doin' anythin' wrong" and he put up his hand to stop a proposed protest on the part of Aileen "remember, I'm certain to find it out in the long run, and Philadelphy won't be big enough to hold me and the man that's done this thing to me. I'll get him," he said, getting up dramatically.
"Mebbe I'd better let well enough alone," replies the old man. "Africy don't seem as neighborly as Phippsburg and Machiasport. I'll chance it as far as Philadelphy next voyage and I guess the old woman can buy a new dress."
