Something extempore from Isaac Hill. —A letter from Washington, March 20, says “Among the most extraordinary occurrences that have taken place here, that I have heard of, is that of Isaac Hill’s being toasted at a late meeting of the Typographical Society, when he rose, and pulling a written speech from his pocket, he began by reading thus, “Mr. President being unexpectedly called upon by the toast just offered, &c.”
