The ADVANTAGES OF BURNT CoRK.-
The following story is told of John Hart:
In 1864 be was the owner of a hundred
acres of wild lands in Pennsylvania,
worth sixteen cents an acre, and was
running boat on the Delaware and
Hudson canal. just then somebody
struck oil on his land, and he was of
fered FIVE hundred thousand dollars for
it, which he refused. He built him a
magnificent house, illuminated his fin
gers and shirt front with gigantic dia-
monds, and became candidate for Con-
gress. And then he went extensively
into oil speculations, and in three years
didn't have money enough left to buy a
chew of tobacco. He then had no other
resource left but to disguise himself in
burnt cork, and he is now negro min
strel in New York, with salary of one
hundred dollars per week. This little
story will possess no value for that reader
who does not learn from it how extremely
hazardous it is to own hundred acres
of wild lands in Pennsylvania, and run a
boat on the Delaware and Hudson canal.
