said Phelps, tnking his scat i'm posi-

room.
Watching the movements Of tic ser

The Eiters Bit.

\ capital story has reached us which
shows that sometimes rogues get over
matched in shrewdness. One of the
warehouscmen employed by Mr.. Evans,
wine merchant, was waited upon Satur-
day night, at his residence at Bedminis~
ter. 10y "two gentlemen who offered
him chain for sale. The price put
upon the article was AZ, and weight and
appearance seemed to more than justify
the amount. Not being satisfied, how
ever, the would-be- purchaser left his
house in order to get the opinion of
some competent person. He ran with
all speed to the shop of Mr.. Palmer,
matchmaker in All Saints Passage -
MIR. Palmer having weighed the chain
and ascertained what it was offered for,
recommended him TO purchase it by all
means, a. II was dirt cheap, even at 81.
He, however, cautioned his friend to
not let il go out his hands under any
prctencc whatever. Returning to Bed
minister the warehOuseman signified
his Willingness 10 pay the four pounds
and Immediately handed over the mon
ey. Just leI's have IL Il minute to rub
off our private mark" said one Of the
shatpers. "No, thank you" replied
the purchaser, sharper than even the
sharpcrs themselves, you've got youi
money and I've got my chain that'll
do" a volley OF oaths was INDUCED
in by the sold sellers; they threatened
to smash the uuofIending warehouse
mans head, but finding Intimidation
would not do, they tried bribery, and
offered him, first 5s., and afterwards
3os., to "cry Off" the bargain. They
said 1t was all n mistake-~that the chain
cost them lA,---that they got their liv.
! ing by selling cOuntorfC.t onrs--that
they had intended 10 change the good
one for spurious article, and swindie
the good warohouseman. But it would,
MT do. He stuck to it that Bargain
was bargain, and that he should not
part with the chain. Finding all efforts
! TO recover the property perfectly useless
the itinerant Jewellers took their de-
| parturc in Il state OF most wrathful dis
comfiurc, probably TO make this entry
in their ledger: BY chain DR.. to cash,
~, Per CoRty'd A.: Balance by Loss
l0!." The shrewd purehaser--made
shrewd by the timely caution Of Mr..
ralmcr-rctains thc chain and seems
most heartily to rejoice at having been
the medium of making "tne Bitter
