By the sale of. some houses, which his absconding partner was unable to carry away in his carpet bag, my uncle was enabled to pay hie creditors in full, and then he retired from bushiess, with a few hundred pounds at his disposal. What he did with his money nobody knew, but he never would invest A, however great the interest and security whichewere offered him. • 'No, eao,' he would say ; 'the little that's loft 1330 I wish to have the benefit of, and,tertainly don't meau to place it withirereach of the greedy claws of any managing director 1 As it is, it will only keep me out of the workhouse for a few years. , My Uncle now became exceedingly penurious hi his habits, and . denied himself many of the comraon neces- saries of hfe. Tbe Change from what he had been to what he became was very striking.- 1 He went about in an old rusty suit of blita, Which -a world too wide for a form which - was rapidly loosing flesh -e- exhibited all the distinguishing marks of the Most abject poverty -His aldermanic corporation • had en- tirely disappearkt, and there seemed. to be an utter collapse of his former self into the shape and substance of an anis mated skeleton . Ile Wes fond of studying a little book, published by De. Nicholls, of Malvern, entitled -'How to .Lite on Sixpence a Day,' and it is probable that he ap- preached as nearly to the ideal of that euthor in the matter -of expenditire for as living as any man ving. He was profoundly impressed beethe wise exhortations of , a reverend writer DI1 'Thrift,' who kindly advises those who don't possess -sufficient for the ne- 3essities of the present to save what they haveal got for therequireraents of the future. ' He was continually diminishing hie txpensea and his stock of vitality at the aame time. Ile was deeply touched by the remark of a Royal Duke, who, at a public banquet, after stuffing his round paunch with all the delicacies of he season, was good enough to say, the working man ought to put by his weges.' • In the.beginning of .December, 18b5, 3i.y -uncle, whose name was Solomon kpwater, lodged in the heuse of a Mrs. lrogblossona, in the Kentish Townman load, Londen. -' Now, geed Mrs. Grogblossom had ately presented her little bill for rent old sundries, which Mr. Sipwater had ieen punctual in paying on previous oc- a8W118 ; but on this, having ex.perienc- Y. id some difficulty, owing to •his verbreaking lialsrby appearance, in obtaining change . Or a live pound note (by the way, it is :emarkabie that, 'whenever a seedy ,00king man asks a ti adestean for lenge, he is invariably told that all the ;pare cash has just • been sent to the mak), there had been a delay, which vas not at all to the satisfaction of his ex- :ellent landlady, whose suspicions, noreover; had been excited: by the ;rowing parsimony of her lodger, who lad never been a very profitable one,o who, being Lna . g a silent, and reserved nan, had not offered any reassuring ex- )lanations On the whole; therefore, she deemed t advisable th get rid of -him, and de- d to show, *' ermine , in an unmistakable nanner, the sense she entertained of his unlausiness-like conduet. A 'di, 1 . ccor - ng y, one fine morning, as mon as Mr. Sipwater ha,d gone out for he‘a . o day, MrsGrOgblossot gave strict njunctions to her servant, SallY SliP- [hod, to leave his bedroom in precisely . he same condition as that in whieh ihe found. it -that is to Bey, With the• ied un.matle, and all those things left nidone which ought to be done, in or- ler that a chamber which has been _ lept in may be fit to sleep in again. 3o that when my uncle returned. to his !am in the evening, he beheld a scene which it is no exaggeration to describe ts the abomination of desolation. The old. lady in Threadneedle street having given my uncle change for his five -pound note, he - was able to shovt ais landlady a firm front. He quietly- packed his portmanteau (which easily 3ontained all his belongings), and then :ang the bell with no gentle hand. No wage being taken by the authorities )elow, he rang, furionaly. This was xactly what Mrs. Grogblossora wanted. 3he put down the glass of rum and water itt which she had been indulging, Ind hastened to the attack. - - 'What do yer mean, Mr. Sipwater, by this outrageous beha,vtor in the 'ouse of i respette,ble married woman? And when are yer going to paettny little bill ? Thera as can't pay their bills hadn't Dught to give themselves hairs. My Word ! I only wish Grogblossom was it home 1 He'd soon show e'er. And POW, sir, there's my account, and I'll thank you to settle it If you can't pay for what you have, you had better go to the workhouae. We can't afford to keep paupers ourselves, and if we, 3ould, eve wouldn't 80 th/tt'S straight 1' MrsGrogbloesona being now out f . oSo treath, paused. for a reply, fully expect.' fle- that Mr: Sipwater would • coafese a bliB inability tit pay. But she was rais- aken. My uncle, although verv angry, Lbs.' lained to enter on a war of words with' e virago who could have held her own with a Billingsgate fishwornan. He therefore paid the biil, and requested that a cab -might be sent for. , The production of themoneycora.: pletely changed the situation. Mrs.. Groebloseora intimated, in . a more. e gracious ina,mier, that if my uncle liked. he might stay another week, but she was informed that he would not etay another -hour. . A cab was called, my uncle got into Lt, and was driven to a coffee-house which he occasionally patronised on ace '..',OUnt of the moderation of its charspa. aere he secured. a bed for 1..he night,' but it wpuld have been better if he had' been contented with the key of the itreet.

LIVINGSTONE. 724 SH.OES rVOR AL • Scientific' Abstraction. - Griffin, Edisoe's private eiecretary,. ! once told Ille a ' funnily characteristic, i story of the manner in which Edison : , came to get married. The idea waspunk, Arat suggested, by an intimate friend, ' who made the paint that he needed a mistress to preside over his big house ' which was being 'managed by a house- keeper and severed serva,nts. I dare say the idea never occurred ._ to him it)efore, for be it known that he. is the :- shyest and most bashful of en, but m . ! seemed pleased. with the proposition, , and timidly inquired whom he should marTY. The friend somewhat testily . replied anyone ; that a man veho had so little sentiment in his soul as to ask such a question, ought to be satisfied with anything that wore a, petticoat and was decent, and concluded by saying : ' "There are a number of nice girls em- ployediu your factory over yonder ; . they are'nt especially refined dr culti- - vated I must confess, but they are . respectable, and that is the main. con- sideration after all Edison looked' them all over, and. after making leis selection put the Ed' question plumply to her: It was '- BOWS way of doing business., but it em- barrassed the young lady all the same. She asked time to consider, and Edison granted her a vveek. At' the end of that t•accepted ime she._hun, m and they were married without delay. . They decided to visit the New England S ' * tates and Canada and make into an ' q extensive tour. As the bridal. party • drove to the station, they passed his laboratory.

The bride, h ' w 0 knew his peculiarity, finally drove .back to th.e ouse h and waited her liege lord's pleasure. She never saw him again for 48 h ours.
