So saying, Mr.. Snobberhosser rushed ouI
of the room; and after putting on his coat
and hat, rushed down stairs like madman,
and darted out of the hotel with a pistol in
each hand.
sAre we not in a scrape now? asked Marl'
Ton.
sPshaw just bring Snobberhosser's basin
in here, and ring for servant said Evin'
ston, with perfect sang. .tipI.
Suobberhosser's basin and goblet were
brought in, the contents of the latter emptiod
into the former, aud the bell rang for ser
want.
The servant soon made his appearance,
and the washing utensils were emptied.
Now said Evinston, as soon as the ser
want had left the room, 'pour little water
into Snobberhosser's basin, and half fills bis
goblet. That will do-now take it back tc

Really, Evinstcn,' said Marlton, when all
these matters had been attended to, 'Snob

Just leave that to me- said E7inston.
But the rascal may do some injury with

'Pshaw suppose we call upon the ladies,

But, papa, if you are as bad off as you
represented to me awhile ago, do not think
that it would be altogether right for me tc
undertake the trip said Eva
sPshaw it will cost but trihe, my child
Fifty dollars at least, papa
sAs much as that ?-surely mott
well, papa, it may be possible to obtain
passage to Charleston for less than half
that amount; but Eva Thornwell must not
remain in that city without a cent in her
pocket-must she?'
You are right"-sixty dollars will not be
too much,' said the old man, counting out
the money.
Fifty dollars is amply sufficient, papa ;
besides it is not altogether fashionable or
polite for an invited guest to travel with more
money than is absolutely necessary said
Eva
Right again here is fifty
You are very kind, papa said Eva, af-
fectionately.
Would that it were in my power to afford
you every happiness, my daughter ! said be,
with deep sigh.
Il am sure, that I am very happy now,
papa
Il know better than that-you are unhap-

REAL DANCERS AHEAD.-I am not addicted 10 de-.
spondency. Few men look upon tho bright side of
the picture more habitually than do but I con-
fcss that xll this seems to me to be prestige of
coming evil. 1t indicates the existence of an a.
mount Of suspicion, and readiness to believe the
worst things OF each other, which are the general
forerunner Of disoord and disssnsion. do not say
disunon, for that is impossible. Nature and art
have tied this continent together by bands that
cannot bs broken. There can be but one govern
ment upon it, whether that government 10 repub-
lie or military despotism. The miserable prsten-
ders to statemanship who are engaged in the work
of dscord need indulge visions Of powers and
Offices, TO be enjoyed in q seperate confederacy.
They may SOW the wind, but it is not they who
will ride upon the storm. The surest mode OF dri-
wing the noisy babbers who are forever prating OF
disu MON back into the obscurity from which they
ought never to have emerged, would be 10 aid
them in their own schemes. The sword 10 vora-
cious monster that in times Of civil war, swallows
up all other aspirsnts for distinction; and they
who suppose that successful military ohieftain
would be contented with less than tho supreme
power himself, or would fail to reward his adLsr
ens with all the principal posts Of honor and dis
tinction, are afflicted with an amouat Of stupidity
which would deserve our pity, il its wicksdnses
did not demand our detestation. The world has
produced but one Washington, and it ID not kksly
that another will soon be sent to gladden. the earth
What good then can be accomplished By teaching
the South to hate the distant North f-Er- Ssnsser

EXCITEMENT ON BROADWAY Adjustment Of a
Ridiculous Election Bet.-Shortly before the late
municipal election, Nicholas Smcdes, made bet
with John W, Coo, that if IIavsmcyer should not
be elected Mayor, no would walk bare.footed from
the st. Nicholas Hotel tn tho Astor House; accom-
panied by music, and if lIavemeycr should bs
elected, Mr.. Coo agreed TO do tho same thing
Tho losing party failing to perform WINS to forfet
$500.
Many people supposed the whole affair 10 be o
hoax. but this Monday afternoon. the bet was full.
filled, according 70 agreement. Crowds Of people
began congregating about tho st. Nicholas Hotel
at o'clock, and by half-past one there must have
boen 900 persons In the immediate neighborhood.
These thronged the street and sidewalks, while
numbers Of ladies gazed upon the people below
from tho windows Of the hotel. Lamp-posts. hsdg-
cd in omnibusses, stoops, in fact all available
places, were occupied by a.yeling and exceedingly
enthusiastic multitude. Tho soene worry ''rich,"
and the passing stranger must have thought that
the great Union meeting other political de-
monstraton. was in progress.
AT II O'Clock. precisely, the sound Of ffe aud
drum gave notice, that tho bot as announced was
n real thing. and soon the party who was TO pay
it made his appearance, from restaurant. The
yelling, cheering and laughing, which arose when
Mr. Smedes showed himself, bare footed, were ex-
ccodingly enthusiastic, and he passed by the
b ,te tho ladies at tho windows gave vent 70 their
enjoyment of tho fun by waving their pocket hand

of tho day. with a friend on each side. whose duty
it seemed 10 be to keep the crowd from stepping
upon his toes. He wns well dressed, and seemed
to he about 25 years of age His feet, required,
were perfectly bare.
The party. accompanied by several thousand
people. proceeded down Broadway on the fashion
able sidewalk. All along the road there were
cheers from tho crowd, which continued 10 increase
until Mr.. Smedes reached the Astor House, where
he was greeted with renewed cheers. Here the
jam was very great, and the observed of sll OBJ

after severe excrtion on his own part and that Of
his friends. Once in and driven oG. he was COM

shake him by the hand, or to catch glimpse Of

concerned. and throughout the trial bore himself
