Is a scene in an auction room that he Witnessed
a few days since. The articles offered, he said,
were damaged goods"-and that women dote
on them as they do on curly-beaded babies.
The first articles put mp were pair OF blank
cts for which more than o dozen bids were imme-
diately offered. The puzzled auctioneer, hOwev-
er, caught up the highest, which was dollar,
from female who seemed determined to have
them at any price, when ere he could say Ego
ing,r a male cried out, "dollar fifty" from the
opposite side of the room.
1.-Two dollarsi" echoed the woman, elbowing
her way through the dense mass Of females, who
were separated from the males by long counter
upon which the glib-tongued auctioneer walked
10 and fro with his goods.
"Two-fifty," nodded the man.
"Thank ye, sir; going at two-ffty," cried the
auctioneer.
"Three." screamed the woman.
"Gin the fifty ." said the aucti0neer, turning
to the man, with half-snppressed smile on his
small, sober visage.
nod from the woman.
"Three-ffty Pm offered; give me the fur;
come, don't be afraid, they're worth double the
money"
"Yes, and that's ALL"
"Sold!" cried the dealer in hammer, almost
bursting with laughter, "to Captain Smith-not
John-for four dollars"
"Smith!" cried the woman; "what, my hus-
band!" raising herself on tip-toe to catch a
glimpse of him. "Why, you good for-nOthing

wife. Oh! you impudence! But. won't have

THINNING FRUIr.-The Southern papers say
there never were fine oranges in Florida as
there are this year, and that il is owing to q
we're gale that blew off nearly three-fifths of the
young frnit, just after they were fairly formed.
The Germantown Telegraph urges . lesson from
this to be needed by fruit growers Of every class.
ave take up the report Of the fruit growers
society in any part Of the community. and note
the great difference of opinion which prevails as
to tho quality of any fruit. One speaker perhaps,
characterzes it food for the gods, while anoth-
would give i to his pigs! No doubt, if the
state of facts could be ascertainel, it would he
found that one had an overcrop, pnd the other
but few on his trees.
ain the grape we know how forcibly all writers
warn ms against the evil of overcropPing. The
best vineyardists cut away large proportion OF
the punches, and assert not only that it aids the
size but the quality of those which are left and
in the pear itself, We all know hOW the large fat
juicy fellow is far superior to the lean scrub
from the same tree.
.The good effect from fruit thinning is not
half enough insisted on but such facts as this of
the orange crop may help to do it,"
