BsS" Our Binghampton friend sends
us fact which needs no fixing:
ga country gentleman who has lived
near us 50 long that he might pass for
j native Of these liggings, though he
was born nearer you than me, was
obliged to visit your city on business
few weeks ago, III the midst of the
panic. lie took quarters at board
ing house, and his rustic dress AMI ap-
pearance exposed him to the observa-
ton and remark of smart young la.
dy, Of very uncertain age, who sat op-
rositc TO him at the dinner table
Taking him for decidedly vcrdant son
OF the soil, she proceeded to quiz him
ut her leisure. The gentleman per-
ccived her drift. and humorcd the Joke.
In the course Of her inquiries she ask
cd, d.. ..... ... .....
Did you ever visit our great city be-
fore?
Yes, ma am, did several years
Since. ....
Did you conc by railroad or steam
boat IN those days!
Neither Of them things were in use
when | come to town
You must have come by stagc?'
Not exactly that way neither
In a el-barrow, perhaps:'
20 No, not that way neither. ..r..
YOU must have come on foot!'
s. Not exactly so, ma'am. ..
We'll, how then did you comc-do
tell us?'
We'll, if you must know, I was born
here, June "a, 1914, at No. 10 Walk
CT Street, near the Bowery.' #
The young lady was perfectly sat
isfed. She dropped the conversation,
dropped her napkin, and finished her
dinner another time, having learned
lesson to mind her own business. -
