A Check Cashed.

During one of the late trips of one of
the splendid steamboats, from Boston to
New York considerable amusement wes
afforded to the passengers by joke
played off on Frenchman who was oon
board
Monsieur was standing at the banr
Lighting cigar, when a friend Of ours's,
who loves fun as well as he does ANY,
thing else, came up and called for a glasss
of something '--atthe same time thrown
ing down what he supposed at the timne
to be half dollar, but in reality one oi
those brass checks which are given t to
the passengers, when they place thehir
trunks and other plunder in charge OF
the Baggage Master. The bar-keepeer
smiled, and remarked, that would bbe
paying rather too much for drlnkk

Our friend saw that some amusement
might be got up at a short notice, and
determined to ''put the Frenchmen
through.-Taking up the check he gave
the bar-keeper sixpence, and turning
to Monsieur, he smilingly assured him
that it would be folly to pay that, lhold
ing up the brass check for single
drink, for it was worth four shillIngs.
"Ah, ah! is Eat re fact:" said the
Frenchman.
"True as the newspaper, replied our
amiable friend ,--'I could sell mine di-
rectIy for half dollar; and if knew
where to buy mother at that price |
should be glad to do so.

like Eat, or like zisi" said Monsieur,
drawing from his pocket the check he
had received for his trunk.
Certainly | would. Come l will give
you fifty cents for yours"
"Take him, dere him i.,'' said the
Frenchman, handing over his check
and receiving half dollar in exchange.
Our friend walked away, and the
Frenchman went to the bar and took
glass of absynthe, pocketed three and
sixpence change, and strolled away hum
ming an air from the opera Of ola
Juive." AT length the boat approached
New York. The darkey perambulated
the decks and cabin, desiring the pas

Who does not recollect Billy VIII
Eams, the comedian, familiarly known
as Billy of the Wells, which latter cog
nomen he derived from having been con-
nected for several years with the Sad
iers' Wells Theatre, London. Billy was
one of the best natured men alive, and
without very brilliant education, he was
an actor; it is true that he sometimes
gave Lindley Murrey wide berth when
using his own language instead Of that
