A Gentleman's servant in the neighbowhood of
Newmarket having received his wages. gave a port
of them in two bunk notes to his wife, who, in the
hurry of huottiess, one morning put her pocket into
the wash tub, without thinking to take them out of
it, and was surprised when she saw two or three
large letters floating on the top of a stocking ;
mediately she recollected the notes, and after strain-
ing the suds, went to the Ludy of the house in the
greatest alarm, with about forty little wet morcels
of paper, closely pressed together. The Lady en.
deavuured to comfort her by saying she would see
what she could do; and after resets' hours patient
and close attention, she succeeded in separating and
arranging all the essential parts on the covers of
NO books, such as the numbers, date, names of the
Loudon bankers, clerk's entry, &c. (what made it
snore difficult was, the notes not only being of dif-
ferent value, but of different country isinks); the
Lady afteiwards pasted the frugotetits on plain
paper, and when the Mims presented the mutilated
notes at their proper banks, butts the houses ho.
