THE EVENING STAR.

The MAIN CHASCE.-Many readers VIII re-
member the anecdotes of the unfortunate IN
dividuaI who while afflicted with terrible
boil upou one Of his joints, undertook to de-
scend 10 his cellar with a favCrite family
nitohsr. 10 draw some cider He slipped upon
the stairs and fell to the bottom, breaking his
carbupcle, and uttering at the same time
scream Of agony. His sTectiOlate wife rushed
TO the cellar and exclaimed at the top Of her
voice, "Oh, Richard, have ysu broken the
pitcher" "No." answered the indignant
and growing sufferer, with an imprecation
which il is not necessary to insert here, "but
will, :" and suiting the action to the word he
flung the priced pitcher against the cellar wall,
smashing it to pieces. A parallel to the thrifty
Yankee wife, who was so much more careful of
her orockery than Of her husband, was found
in a salesman in q wholesale grocery establish
rnent in this city the other day. A merchant
from the country was in the act of trading for
a few chests Of tea, and while they were de-
batting upon the price, the purchaser suddenly
disappeared through an open hatchway into
the cellar. Without apparently observing the
sudden exit of his customer, the clerk cOolly
turned TO another. and asked, "what can I
sell you to-day, sir ~ But the descended
merchant soon reappeared, with slight limp
In his gait, and considerable illustration in his
countensnce, when the matter-of-fact clerk,
turning to him again, and without noticing the
accident at all, says to him, ~ think you bad
better take that tea" The trader looked upon
his impurturbable countenance with astonish-
msnt, but observing nothing but speculation
In his eyes" concluded that nothing like SOM
miseration or sympathy could proceed from a
man whose only rule of action was contained
in the motto, 8 Business is business. '-BoSto1l
