Selling Dry Goods,

People generally think that it is a very easy

of Job, and the impudence of picfpocket.
There are salesman who make it point never

who is in a store in Chatham st., not long

fashionable lady, WHO dropped ip ghiIe going.

The salesman who was now watched in
breathless silence by his follew clerks, pro-

the expression of fear that it would be injured
by getting tumbled to display ancient pieces
of vesting which had been lying in the store
for five years, and was considered to be un-

A BIT OF ROMANCE Some years ago says,
the st Louis I,,teltigeacer, very beautiful
young lady was the ward of person in Lousi-
ana, who defrauded her out of quitea large
fortsse The lady come to this city, where
she married, but not living on good terms
with her husband. finally obtained a divorce
from him and retired to a convent Whilst
she was there she received letter from the
son of her former guardian Informing her of
his fathers death, and that himself had heired
all his vast property, but that he could not
consent to retain that which had been treach-
Grossly takeR Erem another, and offering to
make restitution. The lady immediately
proceeded to Louisiana, had an interview with
the heir, and received back. both principal and
interest, all that she had been wronged out
of. The strangest. part of the story remains
behind. No sooner had she got possession of
her fortune, than she returned to this city,
sought out her former husband, and in afew
davs was REMARKED to him. Verify, the love Of

THE OLD, OLD HOME.
nY REy. EDWARD c. gosRs.

DY REV EDWARD c. JONES.
when / long for sainted memories,
Like angel troops they come,
III fold my arms to ponder
On the old, old home.
The heart has many passages
Through ,chich pure feelings roam,
But its middle aisle is sacred,
To thoughts ofold, old home.
Where infancy was sheltered.
Like rosebud. from the blast;
Where boyhood's brief elysium,
In ioyousness. was past.
To that sweet spot forever,
As to some hallowed dome,
Life's pilgrim bends his vision,
IT'S his old, old homo.
A father sat chow proudlyD
By that dear hearthstone's ray,
And told his chrildren stories
OF his early manhood's day;
And one soft eve was bcam;ng,-
From child to child 'twould roam;
Thus a mother counts her treasures.
In the old, old home.
The birthday gifts and festivals,
The blended vesper hymn,
(Some dear ones who where swelling it
Are with the Seraphim.)
The fond " good nights - at bed time,
How quiet sleep would come,
And fold us altogether IS
In the old, old home. a
Like wreath of scented fiowrets.
Close intertwined each heart,
But time and changein concert.
