the Boston Commercial Rulletin says
A New York ural), who was i*eluted to
in the business of sn1uz=gineg dia-
nds, used to cross the water on the
uutrd line f t om three to four times a
Stan. Two years ago, in the early part
et the season, he es as seized upon his
germ=al,and taken to the searcher's room:
aaely $1,000 worth of . precious stotres
nitre foiled eecreted in the Ruing of lis
its, He returned to Liverpool by the
sole steamer, and four weeks Afterward
gan landed upon the Company's wharf
as North River. He was again seized
tdsnhjected to the same rigorous search,
hit with no success.
The man took it smilingly and Philo- ,
,phically. When he took his leave he
said
`�Bettet Anele next time, gentlemen. T
.tall _go_ back by the same steamer on
cuisines and when. I return you can try
it again."The officers mentally deter- -
mined if he :did they nould •try it again.
Open inquiry it was found that he' really
bad engaged a, return passage, having .A.
held his stateroom for that put poser Two
bears before the sailing of the vessel he
vela driven dome to the pier in his car-
fiaae,_ his wife and daughter with him to
see me off. When they returned they.
carried. with them over 510,000 worth of
diamonds, which had laid secreted in his
stateroom c?urmg the whole tinie the
steamer had remained New
port.
Before his return to New York the col -
le etor was notified by one of the revenue
agents abroad that " Max- Fischer; would.
return by the , which would leave
Liverpool Oct. 24, with several thousand
dollat°s worth of diamonds." In clue time
the man arrived, and for the third time
was escorts d before the searcher. He
was evidently not prepared for such per-
sistent attention. He seemed nervous
aucl agitated, and. finally attempted to.
compromise. He was politely informed
that that was ont of the question. He I
- waa again pat tuts ougk the searching pro-
cess. His pocket -book, which was first
investigated, revealed a memorandum
showing the purchase of 18 diamonds of
various sizes and prices, amounting in all
to shout $12,000.
When this came to light the mail beg-
ged with tears to=;be allowed to compro-
mise. A deaf eat was turned to his en-
treaties. His coat was removed and the.
lining Examined. ,.Nothing there.: Then
the waistcoat. As the searcher passed
his practiced fin ;era along the lining his
heart gave a tremendous thump; as he
recognized the feel " of something peb-
bly, like little rows of buttons, The
garment wM hastily ripped, a strip of
chamois skin was withdrawn and un-
rolled, and there lay, one, two, three-
eighteen I All there.
" You can put'on your coat and waist -
.coat again, Mr. Fisher," said the s 4s,rcher
blandly. `` Good -day."
Without a ward the man departed,
took a horse -car home, kissed his family,
.ate a rousing dinner, repaired to the bath-
room. and after soakiii:g a rather capa-
cious plaster aeross the small. of hisback
for a few minutes in warm water, peel-
ed it off; and with: it 1S diamonds of
various sizes and prices. What the
searcher and collector may have said or
thought when they found their seizure
to be nothing but clever glass imitations,-
-worth from 10 to 30 cents eaeti, nobody
knows ; but although the seizure was
loudly heralded, the finale was never
made public.

Habits of Literary Men.
Tease's conversation was neither gay
nor brilliant. Dante was either taciturn
or satirical. Butler was sullen or biting:
Gray seldom talked or smiled. Hogarth
land Smith were very absent-minded in
•company. \Iiltnn was very unsociable,
and even -irritable when pressed into
-conversation. hirevin, though copious
and eloquent in publ,',e addresses, was
meagre and dull in colloquial discourse.
Virgil was heavy in conver::ation. La
Fontaine appei,re d heavy, charge and
stupid ; •he could not speak and describe
what he hada just.seen ; but then he was
the model of poetry. Chaucer's silence
was more agreeable than his converse. -
..Lion. Dryclen's conversation was slow
and dull, his humor saturnine and re-
served. Corneille in conversation was
so insipid that he never failed in weary-
ing ; he did not even speak correctl:y that
language of which he was such a ruaer.
Ben Jonson used to. sit silent in com-
pany, and, suck his wine and their hu-
mors. Southey was stif,sedate and
wrapped up in asceticism. Addison was
good. company with his intimate friends,
but in rnixect company he preserved his
dignity by a stiff and reserved silence.
Fox in Conversation never tugged; his
animation and variety were inexhausti-
ble. Dr. Bently was loquacious, so also
was Grotius. Goldsmith `• wrote like an
.angel and talked like poor Poll." • Burke
was entertaining, enthusiastic and inter -
al resting in conversation.. Curran was a
convivial deity. Leigh Hunt was "like
a pleasant stream," in conversation. Car-
lyle doubts, objects and constantly de-
murs.
Bulls That Are Not Irish..
It was a tSeotch woman who said that
the butcher of her town only "killed half
a beast at a time ; it was a Dutchman
who said that a pig had no marks on his
ears except a short tail ; and it was a MI -I l �lery
British nuwistrate who, being told by a }
vagabond that he was not married, re-
sponded : "That's a good. thing for your
wife" ;. it was an English reporter who
stated, at a meeting of the Ethnological
Society, there were " casts of the skull
of an individual at different periods of
adult life, to show the changes produced
in ten years" ; though h Dean Swift cer-
tainly mentions two skulls preserved in
Ireland, One of a person when a boy, and
the other of the same parson when he
grew to be a man ; it was a Portuguese
mayor who enumerated among the marks
by which the body of a drowned man
might he identified.when found. " a
marked impediment in his speech" ; it
was a Frenchman- the famous Cardillo—
who, contentedly laying his head upon a
large stone -jar for a "iilloi%, replied to
one who inquired if it was not rather
hard : " Not at all,, for I've stuffed it
with hay" ; it was an American lecturer
who solemnly said one evening : Parent,
you may have children, or if not, your
daughters may have" and it was a Ger-
man orator who, warming with his sub-,
jeet, exclaimed : "' There is no .man,
woman or child in the house, who has
arrived at the age of 50 years, hilt what
has felt the truth thundering through
their minds for centuries."
