ANECDOTE OF STEPHEN GIRARD.

The following capital anecdote Illustrative Of
the late Stephen Grard, Of rPhadeI 2hia, is from
the New Bedford Mercury:
Mr.. G. had a (avorile clerk, one who every
way pleased him. and who, when at The age Of
Iwenty-onoy years, expected Mr.. G. TO say some.
thing Of his future prospects, and perhaps lend
him helping hand in starting him in the world.
But Mr.. G. said nothing, carefully avoiding The
subject of his escape from minority.
AT length. aler The laps Of some weeks, the
clerk mustered courage enough 10 address Mr..
&. upon the subject
81 suppose, sir" said the clerk. Il am free
and thought | would say something to you as
to my future course. What do you think had
better dol"
"Yes, yes, | know you are," said Mr.. G.,
"ond my advice to you is that you go and learn
the coopers trade"
The announcement we'll nigh threw the clerk
of, the track; but recovering his equilibrium,
he SAID if Mr.. G. was in earnest he would do
so.
81 am in earnest"--and the clerk rather he.
sialngIy sought one Of the best coopers, and a.
greed with him upon terms of apprenticeship,
and went at it it in good earnest, and in the
course Of time made as good barrel as any
body.
He went and told Mr.. G. he had graduated
with all the honors Of The craft. and was ready
to set up his business; at which The old man
seemed gratifed, and told him 10 make three
o(lhe best barrels he could. The young COOP
er selected the best materials he could. and
soon put into shape and finished three of the
best barrels, and wheeled them up to the old
mans counting room. Mr.. Gerard said the bar.
reIs we're first rate, and demanded the price.
"One dollar" spid the clerk. sis as low as
can live BY"
"Cheap enough" said his employer, "make
out your bill and present it."
And now comes the cream Of the whole
Mr.. G. drew a check for $4,000 and handed
il TO the clerk closing with these words:
"There, take that, and invest it in the best
