A Landlord OutWitted.

A correspondent of the Philadeiph,o
Press relates the following amusing an.
ecdote of one of the citizens of Lock Ha-
ven, Pennsylvania Ben. W. Morrison as
the person spoken of, and is said to be
one of those free-and easy. good hearted.
humorous fellows, that are always ready
to crack a joke or perpetrate sell"::-
Some fifteen years ago Ben was trav-
elling in Butler county on professional
business. The roads we're ntolerably
bad, and worst of all, the stage drivers
and the landlord at a certain hotel where
they stopped for dinner, had an under.
standing with each other something like
this, the passengers were taken in to dine
and when clever y seated the coach would
furiously dash up to the door, aud the
driver would call for his passengers, sta.
ting that he could not delay a minute on
account of making bis time They would
rush out leaving their meals half finished
for fear of being left For the half un.
finished meal they were charged half
dollar. The victuals were kept for the
next load of passengers, when the skin
mug pTOCtSS was Icptdltu.
Ben had heard of this place and when
they arrived at the hotel he set his wits
to work to see il he cou Id not get the full
value of his money. The bell rang for
dinner, aud tho crowd rushed 10. They
had scarcely got comfortably seated
when the coach reined mp to the door and
the driver vociferously shouted -
Passengers all ab9ard--can't wait
but fee minutes" r..
A general rush was made, but Ben sat
still and ate his dinner very oomposedly.
The stage drove off aud left him, but he
seemed to care very little about it. &
Having disposed of his dinner, he was
enjoying the luxury of long nine in tho
side room, when the landlord approached
him, faying -
IL beg your pardon. sir but did
ycu see q set of silver teaspoons on the
table when you won't in to dinner ?"
II did, sir"
"Well, they are missing can't be
found"
"Ah, yes" replied Ben "one of the pas
sengers gathered them up-I saw him
do it,"
Would you know him again." gasped

With great coolness,
win you point him out to mo- IL

The Worthlessness of Gold.

1t is stated by many of the survivors
of the Central Americas passengers,
that there was seldom so loi ge an amount
of money owned by passengers as was
in the case of those who came by the
Central America Many we're persons
of large means, and there were very few
whose immediate wealth did not amount
to hundreds, while numbers reckoned
their gold by the thousands of dollars
The greater portion of the passengers
were returned miners, some coming bith.
er to invest the capital they had realized
in hopes to live life of greater ease as
the result of their industry, and others
to get their families and once more go
to the land of gold But as the storm
continued to rage, less and less of gold
was thought of, and when, on Saturday,
il became evident that they were likely
at any moment to be buried beneath the
waves, wealthy men divested themselv $
of their treasure belts and scattered the
gold upon the cabin floors, telling those
to take it who would test its weight
few ounces or pounds.-carry them to
their death. Full purses containing
in some instances $4,000, were laying
untouched on sofas. Carpet bags were
opened by men and the shining metal
was poured out on the floor with the
prodigality of deaths despair One ol
the passengers, who has fortunately been
rescued. opened bag and dashed about
the cabin 100000 iu gold dust, aud told
him who wanted to crafty his groed fol
gold to take it, But it was passed BY
untouched as the veriest dross. A few
hours before he would have struck dowr
the man who would have attempted tC
touch grain of tnat which he nov
spurned from him.
