THE CHINA DIsTRIBUrIoN.--Jnd 81 Camp
street, is great institution, and which sustains
its popularity in very unusual manner in this nov.
elty,loving community, which manages to exhaust
almost every sensation in two or three weeks at
longest. But folksnever get tired of making money,
or its equivalent and this is the reason that Judsons
establishment sustains itself bravely, The fact that
every day numbers of persons draw from the case the
envelopes which contain lucky numbers, emitting
them to magnificent and gorgeous dinner sets, or
costly and elegant tea sets, abundany explains the
secret of the popularity Of the concern. The whole
business is conducted in such an up and down,
straightforward plain way, that nobody is dissatisfied
with anybody but dame Fortune, should she happen
| to be against them. We know Of no better way Of
getting chinaware than that offered by Judson's sys
| tenn of distribution.

The Savannah Republican publishes the fol-
lowing, exposing a precious piece of rascality
on the part of some individual, whose name it
does not give. There is no greater scamp than
he who, under the guise of philanthropy, swim
dies the victim of his confidence; and the case
here mentioned is one of the most aggravated.
Why not mention the name, if the story is a
true one?
Sharp, Ve7y.-A negro man who purchased
his freedom went to New York State, and by
rigid economy saved $500, which he intrusted
to an Abolition lecturer, to go to Delaware and
buy his oldest daughter. The lecturer was
overcome en- his charitable errand by a fair
daughter of the State of Delaware, whom he
married, and then pocketed the 5000 given to
him by the negro. This is about as far as it is
possible to make money out of it,"
