aginary nourishment from Goslings restaurant
and finally reached Fulton street. Here he rar
foul of the Sun office vault with its tremendous
presses running at great speed, under the street
and making so tremendous a noise that he took
it for thunder. And he was not mistaken
about the Fulton street eating houses. He
got through a crevice of the masonry, quite a
liberal amount of provisions, and then wended
his way up town. He finally, by branching
westward from Broadway, found his way to the
Fifth avenue, and there he fairly picked up a
small fortune in about months time Breast
pins bracelets, rings, watches, souvenirs, knives
and forks, children's corals, whistles and calls,
beads, &c, &c, lay grouped together in the
sluggish streams on the level streets. The Door
mans eyes fairly danced with excitement 4; such
wealth had not dawned upon his imagination.
His wire sack was filled his pockets were
filled his hat was filed He took off his boots
and strung them across his back, and these were
filled. He had bagged countless treasure and
yet countless treasure remained unbagged-
However he must now get out of the sewers,
was all right.
He speedily retraced his way to Houston st.,
and passed along Grand to the East River -
Here the high tides set the water back to such
great extent that on three different occasions
he narrowly escaped suflocation. And this
was the up hill part of his career-how to get
out. He waited one week-two-three-an
four. Provisions were scarce the ventilation
poor, no more turtles around, only few scab-

got starved with all his wealth After a
while, however, low tide came, and he got
out
After emerging, Meyer soon found that he
had no good legal title to his street treasures
that they were the property of the owners, and
subject to be grasped by the police. A kind
FRIEND to whom he had rendered many favors,
and thereby converted him to just the man for
the purpose, gave the requisite hint to the Me
tropolitans-th that of dividing the plunder-and
Meyer found it would be better to leave the
city. The next afternoon after coming out
from his subterranean life, Leopold took the
North River steamboat for Albany bound west

the most conspicuous. And yet the glow of

FORMER Battles in Europe.

AS a matter Of interest, at present, we give
the following result of desperate battles fought
in Europe since 1872:
On the nights, four miles from Salamanca,

the Russians 10000.
At Borodino, on the Tth of September was
fought desperate battle between the Russians
and the French. The French lost in killed,
wounded and prisoners, $4,000; and the Rus

army of 100000 men.
At Tutzen, in Russian Saxony, on the I'd o.

Disposins OF old Stoolx.

A l1edlar of tin-wa waTe, who had been travel
ling from plantation to plantat in one of the
southern States, with his cargo of notions
found but d limited sale for his lanterns,
ticle of which he had large stock. In despair
of getting rid of them at what he called ii very
reduced price yet he found purchasers as scarce
as clover on the sand-hills. Atlength a tavern
keeper directed him to a farmer, who, he said,
was very much in want of the article. To the
house Of this ready customer went Jonathan,
determined to get his troubles WORTH out Of
him The first person he met was the overscer.
who was lounging by the side of the road
You don t want to buy good lantern, do you:
asked Jonathan. Yes, though, L reckon do,
returned the overseer, how much mought you
ask for one? Only thirty-sevcn and hall
cents Wall, 'spose you give me one The
pedlar accordingly gave him lantern, and re-
ceiving his money proceeded onward
You don't want to buy tirst-rate lantern
to you said he to the overseer wife, who wils
washing clothes at the spring Yes was the
reply Mr. B has been wanting one
this long while Jonathan accordingly served
her out one at the same price he had dargainec
with the husband for. At the barn before ht
reached the farmhouse, he met the son Of thu
planter You don't want to buy no lanterns
do Won p l don't want myself, replied
the young man, but T. take one for father
who has been after one this long time. iona
than accordingly pocketed thlrty-scVen and
half more, and became one lantern lighter.
He now advanced boldly up to the house ant
meeting the old lady at the door, Immediately
nut the questian to her You doti't want t.
buy no first-rate lanterns, do you? Indeed
but do said the old lady; my husband ha
been wanting one these six months past, ant
I'm glad you We come Jonathan accordingi
deposited lantern with her, and received in re
turn another thirty-seven and half.
He now departed almost satisfied with tn
spec he had made At some distance from tn
house in a field BY the side of the road, he es
| pied the old gentleman himself, and hailed hin
with the old question, You don't want to bu
no first-rate lantern, do your? How much d
you ask apiece? inquired the planter 'fft
cents replied the tin pedler, and guess that
cheap enough, considerin' they have come a
the way from Connecticut We'll I'll tax
one, said the old gentleman. putting his han
in his pocket. Hadn't you better take halt
dozen, I'll let you have them at thirty q
: and a halfcents apiece The planter took hir
at his word and the pedlar took his route, atte
having disposed of ten lanterns.
