Erie, and the excitement high, Mir. D., a French gentleman, and one of the most quiet, gentlemanly men in the world, got little ex- cited, and made some petulent remark. In an instant and with unanimity that would hard ly seem possible, the whole board struck up the Marseilles Hymn," and sung it asrough, in spite of all the efforts of the president to pre- vent 1t.
 Sometimes, when on a serious stock, like Crystal Palace, a hen will be heard to cackle, then Shanghai will crow, ducks will quack, and general barnyard concert will take place. man will go to the other end of the room, and every body will begin to laugh He will look round, and see all eyes directed to him. Putting his hand to his back, he finds card, on which IS printed in large letters "A fine green turtle" He doesn't get mad-because that does no good; but, if he can discover the Puck who did the deed, he watches his chance to pay him off in like coin
 There are some of the finest men in New York in the stock-board, and, as a general thing, the members are men of worth and intelligence. 1t IS difficult to get in, as it only requires three black balls to keep candidate out, and unless man can show pretty clean bill of health, there is no chance for him. Young men who have been brought up in Wall street are some times admitted without opposition: but old men, merchants, and broken-down politicians are black-balled right and left.-M. y Leader
