The Independence Belge tells the following story of a young man who bad squandered at the gaming table of one of the German Baths his entire fortune, amounting to about eight hundred thousand frances. He had lost successively, park, chateau, city mansion, and country house, and there remained to the unfortnnate gamester, out of all his estates, only a single spot of grouud—a small orange plantation—which he had carefully excepted from his otherestates. The winner (for his antagonist throughout had beea the same person) was an Englishman, phlegmatic and unsocial in appearance, but whese curiosity was aroused at the solicitude of the rash youth fer the preservation of a dilapidated aad seemingly useless house, containing a few boxes of orange trees. “What are you going to do with this?” he asked, “let us play for it.” “Never!” replied the young man. ‘This orangery is a souvenir, a relic of my childhood. My mother has passed many hours there with me. I may die there; I may try to live there, but I would blow out my brains ratber than stake on a card a single flower of those trees.” “Tt was just one blossom that I was about te propose asa stake. Since you have nothfing else, I will play with you for that, a ‘simple orange blossom. Will you consent ito it?” “But what could you wager on yeur side ‘against a flower, if I should consent te play?” “Oh,amere trifle,of course I, too, would sacrifice a little tosentiment. Iereis an autograph, for instance, which { will deposit as a wager in the hands of a third person.” The young man laughed and yielded. Notwithstanding his filial sentiment, he saw no profanation in the offering ef a flower to Chance, the god whe had served him so ill. As the game was about to commence, the Eng!ishman said to the young Frenchman— “You swear, oa your honor, if you win, to accept the stake, however ridiculous it may appear to you?” “I swear because I have confidence in you, my lord.” Cards were brought, the game commenced, and in a few moments the young man had ‘gained the mysterions autograph. He received it with some emotion ; but how greatly was it increased, when he read a donation, in regular form, of the eight hundred thousand francs that he had lost? The blush of shame mounted to his face. He protested, he refused, he declared that the bargain was null. “I have your word of honor,” replied the Englishman, smiling. “The agreement was in earnest. If I had won, I stould have claimed the orange blossom! You thought more of your orange trees, for you would wot stake them, than of the eight hundred thousand francs. The match was ‘equal.” After two hours of debate, a court of honor having examined into and weighed the affair coolly, decided that the Frenchman could accept, and be did so on condition that Lord Z——— would remain his dearest friend. siaedignnoail dais John Bannister, the comedian, was presented to an old lady proud of ancient and noble blood. . The lady asked a wit of the day who was present, “Who are the Bannisters? Are they of a good family ?” “Yes said the wit, “very good indeed : they are closely conneted with the Stairs!’ “Oh,” said the lady, “a very ancient family of Ayreshire—dates back to 1450, I am delighted to see your friends.” Tur last word is the most dangerous. Husband and wife sbould no more strive to get it than they would struggle for the possession of «lighted bombshell. Married people should study each other’s weak points, as skaters look after the weak parts of the fice, in order to keep off them. Ladies who marry for love should remember that union of angels with women has been forbidden since the flood. The wife is the sun of the social system. Unless she attracts, there is nothing to keep heavy bodies, like husbands, from flying off into space. 2° “Will you have it rare, or well done cs! said a landlord to an Irishman, a few days ‘ago, as he was cutting a piece of roast beet. “T love it well done ever since I am in this ‘counthry—for it was rare enough we used to ‘eat it in Ireland,” said Patrick. A gentleman who was going to fight a ‘duel, asked a friend of his, who bad won a ‘considerable sum the night before, to be his second. “My dear sir,” replied the gamester, “] won fifteen hundred guineas last night, ‘and shall cut but a poor figure at fighting to-day ; but if you will apply to the person ¥ got them of, be will fight like a fiend, for he has not a farthing left.” ‘A good story is told of a broad-backed Kentuckian who went to New Orleans for the first time. Whiskey, brandy and plaio Urinks, he knew, but as to compounded and flavored liquors he was a Know-Nothing. Reposing on the seats of the St. Charles, he observed a score of fasbionables drinking mint juleps. “Boy,” said he, “bring mea glass of that beverage.” When he bad consumed the cooling draught, he called the boy. “Boy, what was my last remark?” “Why, you ordered a julep.” “That's right, don’t forget it—keep bringing ’em." ‘Though some very romantic maidens may sometimes exclaim “Give me a cot with the theart that I. love,” most of the sex vastly prefer a palace with the man they hate. Chinese Tricks 6f Legerdemain, The Chinese correspondent of the London Times writes copiously about things inside of Pekin. Among other things is given a picture of a Pekin juggler going throagh his performances in the streets: He first of all spoke for about five minutes with all the violence of Charles Matthews, ‘evidently saying something witty, for the people round laughed heartily. In the mid ‘dle of bis harangue, however, he was seized with a fit of choking, and after an effort of trying to get something out of his throat, drew forth a little slip of bamboo, like a Lisbon toothe; ick, then another and another; then he sneezed, and out they came at his nostrils, then from his eyes, until he completed the number of thirty-seven, by making one appear half way out of each orifice at the same time,and then threw the let on the ground forany oneto examine. He next took three glass balls, about aw inch in diameter, and placing them singly between his lips, sucked them into bis mouth and swallowed first a red one, then a blue, and last a white one; here was a little interlude ef the tooth-picks and rapid talking ; after which he walked gravely round the ring, stopping four times; each time he gave himself a shake and a jamp, when the balls were distinctly heard to jingle inside of him. On completing his round, after several efforts, he spat upon the ground the balls in thesame order he had swallowed them—the red first and the white last. He then took two more balls, one of polished steel about the size of a hen’s egg. and another of glass of the same size. These first he let fall on the ground to show they were solid; then, placing them between his lips, swallowed them like the smaller ones, but with difficulty, the ball swelling the throat very perceptibly as it went down; here more tooth-picks and talking, while he prepared two swords abont an inch wide and twenty long, very like pol ished hoop iren, clashed them together to show they were real, and passed both down his throatatonce, unotilthey touched the balls with an andible click ; withdrawing these he placed his hauds behiud him, and, after several painful trials, each ball rose in the throat, and fell from his mouth to the ground wilh a heavy thump. ooo . Very Mvcuca Atike.—An_ Irishman in Rhode [sland was about marrying a girl who had a pretty sum of money. Now, the priest hearing of this, desired a piece of this money, and told the bridegroom he would charge twenty-five dollars for performing the marriage ceremoly. “It’s rather high, your reverence,” said the latter. “Then Ill not marry you,” replied the priest. “Very well your reverence; I'll go to some other priest.” “T'll excommunicate you.” “Tecan go to another church.” “Then [ll not let the girl have you.” “There's plenty others your reverence ; and I’ve been thinking, your reverence, that the churches and girls are very much alike— if one won’t have ye, another will.” ee ren SnD, Cou. Scumner—A RemIniscence.—This gal lant officer, lately the companion of Mr. Lincoln in his journey to Washington, is devoid of fear. He does not know indeed, what the word means. He was born to that sort of thing; and his speciality through life has been killing Indians on the frontier. We remember an instance illustrative of this quality in Col. Sumner. In the summer of 1855 he was sent to Europe on a special misson connected with the War Department, and made at the same time Bearer of Dispatches to our Legation at Madrid, by Governor Marcy, the then Secretary of State Col. Sumner’s dispatches referred to the Black Warrior affair, and Col Sumner proceeded at once to deliver them to Mr. Soule, our Minister. The Colonel was presented, of course, to the Queen of Spain, and said some handsome things to Her Majesty, which Mr. Soule’s ready wit and oily tongue made very sparkling in the translation from English into Spanish. TheQueenwasstruck. Wewould not be considered extravagant by those knowing the parties, and remembering the Colonel’s tall, handsome person and soldierly address, and the susceptibility of her Majesty, to say that the Queeu was smitten. That same afternoon the Colonel received a polite note from her Majesty. inviting bim to a supper, in the gardens of the palace, to which only her intimate friends and associates were admitted. “Ah ! this isa compliment—a high honer,” said Mr. Soule. ‘-Well, sir,’ responded the Colonel “at what hour precisely shall Igo?” ‘But you will not go,” said Mr. Soule. “Why not?” “These Spaniards are veay muh excited about this Cuban business ; hate us Americans, and if you go near the Palace after night, you will be watched, followed, and assassinated. I dare not do such a thing.” “Mr. Soule,’ responded Col. Sumner, with emphasis, “when a pretty woman invites me to a supper, I go assassination or no assassination.”’ sini pam te ssa er “Does the razor take bold well?” inquired a darkey, who was shaving a gentleman . from the country. “Yes,” replied the! customer, with tears in his eyes; “it takes . hold first-rate, but it don’t let go worth a cent.” Mrs. Fanny Kenable, going to hear Henry Ward Beecher preach, is reported to have said, when asked her opinion of the orator, “My father and brotherstudied forthe church, and then went on the stage; Mr. Beecher seems adapted for the same change of vocativno.” a “Father,” said a cobbler’s lad, as he was pegging away at an old shoe, “they say that trout bite good now.” “Well, well,” replied the old gentleman, “you stick to your work, and they won't bite you.” “Can you tell me, Billy, how it is that a rooster always keeps his feathers sleek and smooth ?” “No,” said Billy. “Well he always carries bis comb with him.” Special Notices. xr GO. of OO.

Will you consent ito it?” “But what could you wager on yeur side ‘against a flower, if I should consent te play?” “Oh,amere trifle,of course I, too, would sacrifice a little tosentiment. Iereis an autograph, for instance, which { will deposit as a wager in the hands of a third person.” The young man laughed and yielded. Notwithstanding his filial sentiment, he saw no profanation in the offering ef a flower to Chance, the god whe had served him so ill. As the game was about to commence, the Eng!ishman said to the young Frenchman— “You swear, oa your honor, if you win, to accept the stake, however ridiculous it may appear to you?” “I swear because I have confidence in you, my lord.” Cards were brought, the game commenced, and in a few moments the young man had ‘gained the mysterions autograph. He received it with some emotion ; but how greatly was it increased, when he read a donation, in regular form, of the eight hundred thousand francs that he had lost? The blush of shame mounted to his face. He protested, he refused, he declared that the bargain was null. “I have your word of honor,” replied the Englishman, smiling. “The agreement was in earnest. If I had won, I stould have claimed the orange blossom! You thought more of your orange trees, for you would wot stake them, than of the eight hundred thousand francs. The match was ‘equal.” After two hours of debate, a court of honor having examined into and weighed the affair coolly, decided that the Frenchman could accept, and be did so on condition that Lord Z——— would remain his dearest friend. siaedignnoail dais John Bannister, the comedian, was presented to an old lady proud of ancient and noble blood. . The lady asked a wit of the day who was present, “Who are the Bannisters? Are they of a good family ?” “Yes said the wit, “very good indeed : they are closely conneted with the Stairs!’ “Oh,” said the lady, “a very ancient family of Ayreshire—dates back to 1450, I am delighted to see your friends.” Tur last word is the most dangerous. Husband and wife sbould no more strive to get it than they would struggle for the possession of «lighted bombshell. Married people should study each other’s weak points, as skaters look after the weak parts of the fice, in order to keep off them. Ladies who marry for love should remember that union of angels with women has been forbidden since the flood. The wife is the sun of the social system. Unless she attracts, there is nothing to keep heavy bodies, like husbands, from flying off into space. 2° “Will you have it rare, or well done cs! said a landlord to an Irishman, a few days ‘ago, as he was cutting a piece of roast beet. “T love it well done ever since I am in this ‘counthry—for it was rare enough we used to ‘eat it in Ireland,” said Patrick. A gentleman who was going to fight a ‘duel, asked a friend of his, who bad won a ‘considerable sum the night before, to be his second. “My dear sir,” replied the gamester, “] won fifteen hundred guineas last night, ‘and shall cut but a poor figure at fighting to-day ; but if you will apply to the person ¥ got them of, be will fight like a fiend, for he has not a farthing left.” ‘A good story is told of a broad-backed Kentuckian who went to New Orleans for the first time. Whiskey, brandy and plaio Urinks, he knew, but as to compounded and flavored liquors he was a Know-Nothing. Reposing on the seats of the St. Charles, he observed a score of fasbionables drinking mint juleps. “Boy,” said he, “bring mea glass of that beverage.” When he bad consumed the cooling draught, he called the boy. “Boy, what was my last remark?” “Why, you ordered a julep.” “That's right, don’t forget it—keep bringing ’em." ‘Though some very romantic maidens may sometimes exclaim “Give me a cot with the theart that I. love,” most of the sex vastly prefer a palace with the man they hate. Chinese Tricks 6f Legerdemain, The Chinese correspondent of the London Times writes copiously about things inside of Pekin. Among other things is given a picture of a Pekin juggler going throagh his performances in the streets: He first of all spoke for about five minutes with all the violence of Charles Matthews, ‘evidently saying something witty, for the people round laughed heartily. In the mid ‘dle of bis harangue, however, he was seized with a fit of choking, and after an effort of trying to get something out of his throat, drew forth a little slip of bamboo, like a Lisbon toothe; ick, then another and another; then he sneezed, and out they came at his nostrils, then from his eyes, until he completed the number of thirty-seven, by making one appear half way out of each orifice at the same time,and then threw the let on the ground forany oneto examine. He next took three glass balls, about aw inch in diameter, and placing them singly between his lips, sucked them into bis mouth and swallowed first a red one, then a blue, and last a white one; here was a little interlude ef the tooth-picks and rapid talking ; after which he walked gravely round the ring, stopping four times; each time he gave himself a shake and a jamp, when the balls were distinctly heard to jingle inside of him. On completing his round, after several efforts, he spat upon the ground the balls in thesame order he had swallowed them—the red first and the white last. He then took two more balls, one of polished steel about the size of a hen’s egg. and another of glass of the same size. These first he let fall on the ground to show they were solid; then, placing them between his lips, swallowed them like the smaller ones, but with difficulty, the ball swelling the throat very perceptibly as it went down; here more tooth-picks and talking, while he prepared two swords abont an inch wide and twenty long, very like pol ished hoop iren, clashed them together to show they were real, and passed both down his throatatonce, unotilthey touched the balls with an andible click ; withdrawing these he placed his hauds behiud him, and, after several painful trials, each ball rose in the throat, and fell from his mouth to the ground wilh a heavy thump. ooo . Very Mvcuca Atike.—An_ Irishman in Rhode [sland was about marrying a girl who had a pretty sum of money. Now, the priest hearing of this, desired a piece of this money, and told the bridegroom he would charge twenty-five dollars for performing the marriage ceremoly. “It’s rather high, your reverence,” said the latter. “Then Ill not marry you,” replied the priest. “Very well your reverence; I'll go to some other priest.” “T'll excommunicate you.” “Tecan go to another church.” “Then [ll not let the girl have you.” “There's plenty others your reverence ; and I’ve been thinking, your reverence, that the churches and girls are very much alike— if one won’t have ye, another will.” ee ren SnD, Cou. Scumner—A RemIniscence.—This gal lant officer, lately the companion of Mr. Lincoln in his journey to Washington, is devoid of fear. He does not know indeed, what the word means. He was born to that sort of thing; and his speciality through life has been killing Indians on the frontier. We remember an instance illustrative of this quality in Col. Sumner. In the summer of 1855 he was sent to Europe on a special misson connected with the War Department, and made at the same time Bearer of Dispatches to our Legation at Madrid, by Governor Marcy, the then Secretary of State Col. Sumner’s dispatches referred to the Black Warrior affair, and Col Sumner proceeded at once to deliver them to Mr. Soule, our Minister. The Colonel was presented, of course, to the Queen of Spain, and said some handsome things to Her Majesty, which Mr. Soule’s ready wit and oily tongue made very sparkling in the translation from English into Spanish. TheQueenwasstruck. Wewould not be considered extravagant by those knowing the parties, and remembering the Colonel’s tall, handsome person and soldierly address, and the susceptibility of her Majesty, to say that the Queeu was smitten. That same afternoon the Colonel received a polite note from her Majesty. inviting bim to a supper, in the gardens of the palace, to which only her intimate friends and associates were admitted. “Ah ! this isa compliment—a high honer,” said Mr. Soule. ‘-Well, sir,’ responded the Colonel “at what hour precisely shall Igo?” ‘But you will not go,” said Mr. Soule. “Why not?” “These Spaniards are veay muh excited about this Cuban business ; hate us Americans, and if you go near the Palace after night, you will be watched, followed, and assassinated. I dare not do such a thing.” “Mr. Soule,’ responded Col. Sumner, with emphasis, “when a pretty woman invites me to a supper, I go assassination or no assassination.”’ sini pam te ssa er “Does the razor take bold well?” inquired a darkey, who was shaving a gentleman . from the country. “Yes,” replied the! customer, with tears in his eyes; “it takes . hold first-rate, but it don’t let go worth a cent.” Mrs. Fanny Kenable, going to hear Henry Ward Beecher preach, is reported to have said, when asked her opinion of the orator, “My father and brotherstudied forthe church, and then went on the stage; Mr. Beecher seems adapted for the same change of vocativno.” a “Father,” said a cobbler’s lad, as he was pegging away at an old shoe, “they say that trout bite good now.” “Well, well,” replied the old gentleman, “you stick to your work, and they won't bite you.” “Can you tell me, Billy, how it is that a rooster always keeps his feathers sleek and smooth ?” “No,” said Billy. “Well he always carries bis comb with him.” Special Notices. xr GO. of OO.
