FIFTEEN YEARS AGO there was no more popular
band Of performers in their line than Buckley's
Serenaders. G. SwAYNE BUCKLEY Was host in
himself. As "end-man" and bone player, many
considered him superior to GsoRas CHR1sTY;
while he had unique faculty Of turning spoons,
combs and pieces of brown paper into musical in
struments, and disooursing thereon in very en-
tertaining manner. FREDERICK BUCKLEY was vio-
lin player and composer Of more than average
ability; while R. BISHOP BUCKLEY (Pompey) was
to negro Ininstrelsy what BENTON and PLAorDE
we're to the comic drama. ANYTHING more lu-
dicrously imbecile than the simple expression Of
countenancs with which Pompey would set about
the solution OF conundrum does not live in our
memory, and the utterly. absurd irrelevance OF
his reply delivered with rerfect pllcidity and un-
consciousness threw everybody, save himself,
into fits OF laughter. His death is among recent
items Of intelligence. He leaves behind him many
pleasant memories.

TIE FOLLOWING ANECpoTE merits being put on
record; it is 30 seldom we find men disposed to
do good by stealth. Alesrned man Of great merit,
whose loss Germany still deplores, wrote some
years ago 70 bookseller, n. Yoss Of Berlin, that
in order to form new plan Of life, he wanted the
sum Of fifteen hundred dollars, He knew well, he
said, that his correspondent could not draw it out
Of histrsde, but entreated him to procure it him
for six years, though onaa very high interest.
The bookseller deliberated about it with friend.
A circular letter was written, in which, without
naming the learned man, the rich were invited to
bring this sum together. The privy counselor
W1oMEa. signed it. and paid himself hundred
,dollars; Count HIRzBERa, and another l esteemed
minister Of the king, did the same almost the
whole of the remainder; was subscribed by Jew
-houses many OF which are the first banking houses
in Berlin, and very eager to seize every opportu-
nifty of showing their philanthropy. 1t is easily
to be conceived that men who could determine to
advance money to an unknown person thought OF
NO interest, and left it entirely to his means or
integrity whether he would repay them or not.
Sometime afterward new circular announced the
death Of GEORGE FOSTER, the person assisted, ad-
ding, that he had left means from which the sum
lent him might be collected. go.
