As there are great many persons who
have never been so fortunate as to get a
sight of the article so much admired by
the ladies, called hustle, we copy the fol,
lowing from the Paris Sentinel, that they
may form some idea of what hustle is
like:
"a STRAY BusrLE.-Our devil picked up a
ladies' hustle in the street on Thursday last
which the fair owner can have by calling at this
office. That the lady may distinguish il as her
own, we will give the following description. LIS
shape is that OF half moon, and ii is about
as large as a good sized beona sausage. It's
cover is piece Of fine domestic, and its contents
consist Of wool, raw cotton, rags, wheat bran,
cut straw. cowshsir. little pieces OF leather, and
a few carpenters shavings"
