The mountain sentinel. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1844-1853, 1849-08-02

in the matter of stopping subscriptions to
newspapers and periodicals, people are
more prone to fall into this error than any
thing else. A man gets offended about
something-perhaps, through some error
of the clerk, his bill is sent to him after it
has been paid; or, through the neglect of a
carrier, or the purloining propensities of
news-vending lads, his paper fails few
times, and in high indignation he orders a
discontinuance. After that he is firmly
convinced that the paper must GO DOWN.
and ii he happens to meet with few
months afterward by accident will very
likely say
why, IS this thing alive yet? | thought
it had stopped long ago
So the world moves ON. People are
prone to think that what they smile on
lives; and what they frown upon is blight
ed, and must die.

American Cities.

The growth of American cities is un-
pareled in the history of the world. Al
ready half a million are embraced within
the suburbs of New York, and more than
half that number within those of Phlladel-
phia. New Orleans contains about one
hundred and fifty, Boston one hundred and
thirty, and Baltimore one hundred and five
thousand inhabitants.
The above paragraph, which we clip
from one of our exchanges, no doubt orr
glnated IN Gotham, as 1t bears unmistaka-
BILE marks of its parentage.-According TO
the census of 1910, Philadelphia had
population of S,s32, and New York
3l2,234; yet according to the above calcu-
lation, almost ten years after this census,
New York has population of half mil
lion, and Philadelphia about half that mum
Der, l. e. 100000: SO that in the period
named, Philadelphia would have increased
backwards some 5000, while New York
would have grown to 500 900 inhabitants.
This IS one of the mysteries of New
York logic and arithmetic From 1880
to 1910, the increase of population was
70,135. Add this TO the population of
1910, as fair ratio of increase up to this
time, and the present population would be
35S 967.-NOrth .7a3ericaa.

Ex.-A suit decided, how do you stand
with the lawyer conducting the other bill!
Can.-Cheek by jowl.
Ex.-Enough, sir; you promise TO be
an ornament to your profession, and | wish
you success. Now. are you aware OF
the duty you owe me'
Can.-Perfectly.
EX.-Describe the duty.
Can't is TO invite you 10 drink.
Ex,-But suppose | decline?
Can Scratching his head. There
is no instance Of the kind on record in the
books; cannot answer tha: ques ion.
Ex.-You are right and the confidence
with which you make the assertion shows
that you have read the law attentively;
let's take the drink, and | viii sign the
certificate.

4 received your bill to-day, Mr.. Leon
ard said customer, as he entered the
shop of master mechanic.
I'VE are sending out all our accounts
eithis season. returned the mechanic, bow
ing.
Il want to pay you
Very well, Mr.. Baker, we're always
glad to get money
But you must throw off something
Let me see," and the customer drew out a
bill-'twenty-seve dollars and forty-six
cents. Twenty-Five will do. There re-
ceipt the bill and I'll pay you
But Leonard shook his head.
Il can't deduct a cent from that BILL MIR.
Baker. Every article is charged at our
regular price ~
oh, yes, you can. Just make it twen-
ty-five dollars, even money. sHere it is.
And Baker counted out the cash.
4 am sorry, Mr.. Baker, but | cannot
afford to deduct anything. If you'd just
owed me twenty-five dollars, your bill
would have been just that amount.
would not have ADDED cent beyond what
IS my due, nor can take anything less
than my due @ 81
Then you won't deduct the odd money"
Il cannot, indeed 't"
VERY WELL The manner of the Gus
toner changed. He was evidently often
ded. sThe bill is too high, by just the
sum asked to have stricken off. But no
matter can pay it.
Then you mean to insInuate, said the
mechanic, who was an independent sort
of a man, shat am cheating you out of
..,,o In re 49, fortxy ceptSp
i didn't say So
But it is plain you think SO, or you
would not have asked an abatement. II
you considered my charges just, you
, would not dispute them
+'Oh, never, mind, never mind! we IL
noe waste words about it. Here's your
money, said Baker; and he added another
five dollar bill to the sum he had laid
down. The mechanic receipted the ac-
count and the change, both of which his
customer thrust into his pocket with a
petulant air, and then turned away and
left the shop without another word.
Its the last bill he ever has against me,
muttered Baker to himself, as he walked
away. If that's his manner of treating
customers, he'll soon GO to the dogs. He
was downright insulting, and no gentleman
will stand that from another, much less
from avulgar mechanic.-.Mean to insin-
uate!' Humph! aYesI did mean TO in
& -sinuate.' And Mr.. Baker involuntarily
quickened his pace. Hell lose one good
customer he continued to himself. Five
paid him great adeal of money, but it's
the last dollar of mine he ever handles.
II Baker was as good as his word. He
Withdrew his custom from the offending
mechanic and gave it to another.
80 1--we got one of your old customers,
Leonard said friend in the same busi-
ness to the mechanic, some six or eight
months after.
'Ah. who is it.'
Baker
Leonard shrugged his shoulders.
How came you to loose him.

INFLUENCE OF THE IMAGINATIoN.-In
reference to the cholera, as well as other
diseases, there is great truth in the old ad-
age, sconceit can kill, conceit can cure as
the following facts will show: curious
experiment says the London Medical
Times, was recently tried in Russia with
some murders. They were placed with
out knowing it, in four beds where four
persons had died of the cholera. They
did not take the disease. They were,
then told they were to.,sleep in beds where
some persons had died of malignant chol-
era; but the beds were, in fact, new, and
had not been used at all. Nevertheless,
three of them died of the disease Within
four hours. -
The government of the United States

of the Republic of Hungary. This viii
