HALF OF THE WIDOWS M1TE.-A
gentleman called upon rich friend for
some charity.
"Yes, l must give my mite" said the
rich man.
.'Do you mean the Widows mite?'
asked the solicitor.
Certainly was the reply.
81 shall be satisfied with half as much
as she gave" said his friend. "How
much are you worth?''
Seventy thousand dollars"
"Give me, then, your check for thirty
five thousands; that will be half as much
as the widow gave; for she, you know,
gave her all.
The rich man was cornered. Covet-
Gus people often try to hide themselves
behind the widows mite, and under the
cover of her contribution give meanly
to the Redeemer's cause. Her example,
indeed, rightly interpreted, would
pluck selfishness out of the soul, and
fill to overHowing the channels of true
benevolence.

The house of Peter Domesq is Que of
the oldest of the Jerez firms, and, to-
| day. suppose, stands at the head,
| Judging by the quality of their wines.
They have no wine less than two hun
dred and fifty dollars per pipe, and
none Which they recommend under three
hundred. From this their prices range
up to nine hundred per pipe. All these
prices are OF course in gold. They send
but little wine TO America, because
either owing to the heavy customhouse
dues, or almost total want of apprecia-
ton of good wine on the part of the
Americans, the orders come mostly for
cheaper wines Than this house deals in.
[ say mostly, for, of course, there are a
few firms in New York and Boston who
import small amount of really good
sherry, but am assured by more than
one Jerez house, that they send but
little of the higher priced wine across
the water. At the vaults of Gonzales,
Byass IL Co., who are also extensive
wine merchants In Jerez, / saw large
quantity of wine valued at from ninety
to one hundred dollars per pipe, ready
to be shipped to America, and was
again told that they send but little Of
the higher brands to the United States.
AS will be seen from the prices, if
you will drink good wine, you must pay
high for it. A pipe of wine contains
one hundred and eight gallons, and
each gallon fills five bottles. At one
hundred dollars per pipe, it is worth
almost ninety two cents per gallon, and
eighteen cents per bottle. At four
hundred per pipe, about three dollars
and seventy cents per gallon, and sew
enty-five cents per bottle. At nine
hundred per pipe, it is about eight dol
lars and thirty-three cents per gallon,
and one dollar and sixty-seven cents
per bottle. When, therefore, one buys
at home good sherry wine at two dol
lars per bottle in currency, it is hardly
to be suppose that after deducting the
customhouse duties, the freight expenses
and the heavy per cent. realized by the
American wine merchant, it would
prove to be very high priced wine in
Jerez, if, indeed, it were so fortunate
as to come from there at all. But
'.where ignorance is bliss, tits foIly."
&C., &c, and if my friends at home
are content with the article they gener-
ally find for sale there, it is better that
l say no more about the wine vaults of
Jerez and genuine sherry Correspond
ence Providence Journal.
