Gu11nuJrY.-The corner Of Market and
Meeting streets was graced yesterday with the
presence Of an original and genuine down
easter" who collected the greenbacks from the
unsophisticated freedmen while he permitted
them to enjoy the privilege Of looking through
a brick. This unusual luxury was not ex-
planned to the sightseers, and they left fully
satisfied that they had witnessed miracle.
The trick is 30 old that it is hardly worth the
trouble Of explaining it, US all who have
thought upon the subject know taat the singu-
lar result is produced by combination Of mir
rors which reflect the light and enable the
spectator to see under and beyond the inter-
vening brick. The Snowman has, however,
come to the right place, and will probably re-
alize a small harvest Of greenbacks, as the
members OF the convention will not hesitate
