My friend, (writes a corre pondent) was the paymaster of a larg railroad company, and one day he went out with thirty thousand dollars t pay his men. The money was wrapp d up in an old. newspaper, and he c rried it under his arm. Ile stopped. it he way- side hostelry for dinner, and left the M0710y on,a • chair when he ent out. He had not gone many Miles from the place -when he missed it. He ow back and asked the woman if she ad seen a parcel. " Theren a bit of n wspiiper on the chain beyant," said sh ; " per- haps that's it," which it prov d to be, and my friend returned, a hap ler and a wiser man. Another circu stance : A man I know of lost a rol of bills amounting to ten thousaed dollars: They, also,were tried up in a ne spaper. He told a friend, and the tw talked over the loss and the prob bility of finding the money. The frie d made him tell the ground he had een over since he had the money. he last pla.ce he was at was the post office. The night was wet over head an d slushy under foot. i They stopped at ithe post ; office, and going, to the place wIliere the If man. had been, found two or thee torn bits of newspaper. It was thie same. - They looked further, and fo ind the , lost treasure. It had been. 'cked in I turn by every one who came into the r office, and when found was al - untied • and completely soaked in slus . They = seized it eagerly and returned to the al hours , and at grateful bought tch and 6 hotel, where they spent seve in cleaning it. It was all the; , last they got it dried.

Wedues ay even-. ing of this week the usual da ce took place in the large hall of the ins itution. On the seats there were over fo r hun- dred. of the patients, with at endants seated -at the ends of the bench s. The custom is that the sane officers and attendants dance with the ins4tue pa- tients, and thus each couple is 'arf and 'arf—one sane and one insane artner. T -he manager seated on the sta e would give the signal, and immediatel in the centre aisle the sane and insa e were choosing partners, and with njiore de- corum and dignity than is seen t some of our city balls they would f rat the sets, and on the striking up of t e music go throngb the figures.

A. p ominent member of. one of our Stock Boards, , who has recently re- turned from a fking trip to Paris,while passing one of our best French restaur- ants aefew evenings- since in company with a friend, was attracted by the dis- play of boned turkey in the, 'window, and. he invited his friend. to come and partake of some at hie expense. The broker, being anxious to air his knowledge:of the French language, thus addressed the waiter, "Garcon, avez vous ge boned teorkey ?" The waiter replied, "Obi, Monsieur, certainment, nous avons bon toltay." " Bleu ; Donnez nous en." When the Waiter disappeared the broker turned to his friend and remarked, "Nothing like being able to speak to these.' ellows in their own 'language. It gives ne an air of ir i emortance and in- sures rompt attention." . By this time the waiter had. returned with napkins, glassee, and a bottle of white wine,from which l he proceeded :to draw the cork andfi4 -the glasses. The 'friend sug- gested. that no wine had been ordered, but the broker explained that the French drank wine as a substitute for water, aud that a .bottle of wine- was considered essential to all meals. The wine was disposed of, and, no boned turkey having appeared, ,• the broker tapped impatiently with his cane on the table, and in response to the signal the waiter appeared bearing it silver salver, on -which reposed a slip of paper. The broker, not knowing but it might b0 a polite note from the . cook informing them that the boned turkey was just out, tOok-it up and read it. . At the first glance he turned pale clear back of his ears, and seemed to .be affected by an .internal volcano. When suffi- i ciently recovered from his violent emo- tion, he passed the slip of paper to his friend and remarked, " Great heavens ! these fellow -s must think we _run a bucket -shop or rob stages for a living. Twelve dollars for a bottle of wine, and nothing Co eat! This is the worst hog- ging game I ever fell against, and I don't propose to stand it. Here, waiter! Take this bill back to the man who sent it, and tell him Ithat he is a highway robber, and that we don't propose to be swindled. He has got to knock $1.1.50 off that bill or it don't get paid.'T The waiter disappeared and re- turned with the proprietor, who ex- plained that they had drank a most ex- pensive Hungary wine ; in fact, the finest brand of Wine in the market. The broker agaiu-belched . forth : -Hun- gary wine! I -should say it was, for it has given me an appetite like an _alli- gator ; but we didn't Order any wine; we only -ordered boned turkey." " Oui," said the proprietor, " zat is ze wine—Bon Tokay," and he pointed out on the wine list, "Vieux Tokay—$12 per bottle." - A sickly smile played over the bro- ker's features as he realized the situa.- tidn: Without further protest he paid the • bill, and down in the cavernous depths of a beer saloon he swore his friend to secrecy on it stack of sand- wiches, with a bottle of Budweiser for a witness. , The Poor Rich Men of Boston. The poorest men in Boston to -day are the ",solid men ;" at least they feel so. What with the lack of opportunity fer investment of capital, the low rate of interest, and the uncertainty of rail- way and miscellaneous investments, the rich men of the cilby are poor. Ob- servation has shown, too, that the so - 'called wealthy class are spending very little Money ; the grocers and provision dealers Complain at the smallness of their billseand declare that their rich customers are keeping Lent the year round. One cause of this feeling of im- pecuniosity is to be found in the great depreciation of real estate and reducL tion in rents and shrinkage iu other • in. vestments of the past few years. For . instance, the late William Appleton, of .Beacon street, was estimated at his • death to be worth about ,$3,000,000. His estate has just panned out at $708,909.15. It is proper to notice the cents, so -precise have been the ap- praisers in the mater. The next May valuation of the real estate of the city by the assessors is expected to show a large shrinkage from last year's shrink- age, when it was over §40,000,000, as compared with the previous year.— Chicago Journal. Russian Weddings. One of the most ruinous habits of the Russian peasants is displayed at mar- riage celebrations. A peasant, to cele- brate the marriage of his son, procures 25 gallons of whiskey, to get money for which he sellhis horse; cow or pigs, and is ready te become a pauper. He cannot resist the practice, for custom requires _that the population. of the vil- lage, /13elf, women and children, must get drunk. A rich peasant, at the marriage festival, will procure one hun- dred gallons of whiskey, and the neigh- boring villages are invited to take past - 'in the • carousal. • Hagyard's Pectoral Balsam is composea of tbe most healing balsams and MIDIS.
