A GARD PARTY.

1t is related Of Madame du Dellan,
that three Of her friends brought a
card table to her bedside, at her re-
quest, in her last illness, she taking a
hand. As she happened TO die in an
inopportune game, her partner played
dummy for her, and thus the three
quietly played it out, and settled the
stakes before they called the servants
TO notify them Of the very important
demise Of their mistress. Shocking
as is this incident, it is trivial in com
parison with one that is said to have
occurred at Albany many years since.
There was at that time a low-eayed,
peaked.roofed, stone-built inn, situated
in the upper part of the city, known
as the Colonies" place much fre.
quented by Schenectady teamsters
and Mohawk boatmcn; before the
completion Of Cllhton's grand canal
had caused that disSlpatcd mongreI
race to be superseded in their voca.
ton. At this inn one day a man by
the name of Derrick Hellenstin, but
better known as "Drk Hell, at Ger
man Flats" had been seized with con.
vulsions amid a drunken froic, and
expired during the fit, with his limbs
all knotted together by the fierce
muscular action incident TO his dis
ease. In Albany at that time, the
Dutch custom Of several friends of the
deceased remaining all night in the
same room with the body, and keep
ing their vigils until the moment Of
interment. was strictly observedt
coffee aad mulIed wine with dos og
dead cakes. aud other refreshments.
