/ n Curious Circun.stance.-A story went the
rounds short time since of lady having been
in the habit of frequenting the gambling bells at
the west end of the town in Disguise and who
tits said, lost f1500. We then doubted the truth
Of this matter, and still doubt the amount OF the
alleged loss but an adventure recently occur
red, which tends to confirm the belief that the
fair sex do occasionally, and on the sly, indulge
in the baneful passion of gambling.
For some time past, man OF youthful ap-
pearance, wearing mustachos, was observed TO
be an occasional visiter to well known house,
we have heard, l3 Park place, st. James, where
he played with various success, but TOR MODE
rate stakes. At length, on night last week,
he rendered a check for fifty pounds to the
banker, and in an under tone, requested coun-
tiers. It had been remarked that he scarcely
ever spoke but in a similar subdued manner.
AS he was recognised and believed to be re-
spectacle, his request was at once complied
with, aud for time fortune seemed to crown
his speculatons. At last, however, luck turn
ed, and he lost all! His agitation had been gra-
duay increasing, and, on looslng his last coun-
ter, he dropped on the floor.
He was Immediately carried into private
apartment where every humane attention was
paid to him, and proper restOratives applied, but
he reapsed from one fit to another, and at last
on unbuttoning his collar and throwing open his
vest the man proved to be woman! medi-
cal gentleman was sent for, and at last compa-
rative self possession was gained.
Consciousness, however, only increased the
agitation of the patient, who recognized in the
medical attendant friend of both her own and
her husband-for she was married woman.
An reimbursement took place, and it is due to
state that the owner of the establishment at
once commisserated the situation of the unhap-
ply woman, and, without moments hesitation,
returned the check, which, it is painful to add,
was subsequently admitted to be signed with the
name her husband. The lesson was severe
one, and it is hoped will have its proper effect.
