During this argument, Caesar was busiy engaged in
shaking about the money in his pocket and OCCASION
ally displaying specimen of the mint drop, which
were of so bright and imposing appearance as to
attract and win the favorable notice Of his friend SID
Williams.
Cesar had acquicsced in all that had been said and
imagined for the first time that he had got in the
cety Of some learned Theban,-but the removal ofthe
depoates and the responsibility, had awakened his
curiosity such pitch, that othng short of expsRa
ten would answer which he fancied knowledge Of
would qualify him, that he could then, with i'm
punity ask the hand of the fair and lovely Diana

After this explan aiion Sb made his way off as fast
as possible chuckEng with Joy his wonderful sue
cess, whilst poor CGsar, fearful 10 follow, lee. his
friend, being perfect in science, should put the
"vanic baitry' in motion, and thus ease hispockes of
the small balance remaining After few moments
furher reflection, Cmsar wheeled around upon his heel

eye that was turned inside out with rage, also
displaying lip finely turned over on the chin, reflect
