NJ. Fuz Fees n Waiter and Feei, Mean

NJ. Fuz Fees n Walter and Feels Mean.
La the last number of the Mac Cheek Press
Mr.. "Fuz" gives another interesting s'personaI
reminisceDce." He fees a wsiter and forth
with ever since ID thereby rendered disconso-
late. 1t ism the waste of the money but the
principle Of the thing
The snobbish fashion some noodles have of
feeling the walters is driving all comfort from
our hotels. 1t is mean, sneaking purchase of
low distinction. The poor devil indulgng in
il thinks he buys the admiration Of q niger.
But he is swindled out of this, for dark ey e in
stiDcts after all tell him that the moneyed man
is snob. Poor human nature Franklin
taught US lesson long before Fuz was thought
Of, but the lesson fell on Fuz in vain. As Frank.
lin paid out his last coin without an adequate
consideration rather than appear mean, so your
correspondent Fus sought to elevate himself in
the eyes of colored man. / must say, in nit
igation of this weakness, that he was a very
tall, dignihed darkey-an impressive nigger
altogether.
1t happened in this wise: was paid up at
the hotel for Baltimore. Now had nothing
in the way of luggage but a carpet bag, and as
the bus would carry me from the hotel to the
station house on the river for six cents, it was
quite unnecessary to pay a hack fifty cents 1
saw difficulties in the way-I knew il would
require some diplomacy to get through the
army Of walters, travelling bag in hand-but
undertook the task, and succeeded in getting
by all, as thought, when the talIest one of the
lot seized my bag and said, in the politest man
ner, t'Scuse me, sab; what stage will you take,
sah!' There was no escape, and quietly sub
mitted. He stopped the omnibus, and while
tumbling in hastily searched for quarter.
Unfortunately I found only 50-cent piece,
and this handed him. He put me into the
wrong omnibus, 80 that was forced to take
another, costing an additional six cents
I had the blue devils. My reflections were
gloomy and humiliating. / was no true gen.
tlemsn-I was q weak hearted snob When he
handed me and my travelling bag into the om-
nibus I.should have said in the blandest man
ner, al thank you sir; you are very kind, in
Decd" and darkey, instead of having my Fifty
cents, would have high opinion Of me. He
would hayo regarded me as ahigh old cuss, y
which means snob with colored pusson
Through this weakness lost ten good cigars
or say ten drinks, such as lager beer or 6ne
Catawba juleps- and for what? To impress a
darkey with the wealth, importance and dig.

income would startle some of our miilionaires

was generous, good fellow, noted for his
charities, and If you asked him why he rowed
over 30 small sum, he would tell Won that Il
was the principle and not the money: that the
