VERY POLITELY.
An Irishman was going along the road, when an angry bull' rushed down upon him, and, with his horns, tossed him over the fence. The Irishman, recovering from his fall, upon looking up saw the bull pawing and tearing up the ground (as is the custom of the animal when irritated), whereupon. Pat, smiling at him, said, • If it wasn’t for your bowing and scraping and your humble apologies, you brute, faikes, I should think you had thrown me over this fence on purpose !’
