with bath, we may attempt a clean discus
sion with him"
The illustrious editor was simply careless
of his attire, though fastdiOuSy neat. He
was always so busy that, when he rose in the
morning, he put on the first thing he found,
and sometimes he did not put it more than
half on. His clothes never seemed to tit him,
or, rather, he never seemed to fit his clothes.
The wonder with many Of his acquaintance
was where he bought them, or ~heIher they
did not grow, so unique often were their cut
and pattern. Clothes, repeat, were a tender
theme with him and he displayed the highest
breeding by never alluding to what he wore.
1t is supposed he got his garments ready made
Il have been told his wife was in the habit
of purchasing them), and, to save time, he
took the first articles offered. He was the
enly New Yorker of note who repeatedly
appeared in the street in the morning in a
dress-coat. But he made ample atOnement
for this by presenting himself up town at for
NAL dinners in paIetot, or some peculiar gar
ment that defed indenti6cation. Whatever
may be thought Of Mr.. Greeley's quaint
rament, he was excellently dressed according
to the Brummel canon, because after being
with and listening to him one could not re-
member what he had on. He could talk
away his clothes in the briefcst space

Mr.. Greeley's Clothes.

Mr.. Greeley throughout life. was twitted
with his slovenliness of person, and many peo-
pie were made to believe that he incurred the
risk of being sold for bag of ancient rags
whenever he passed into Ann Street The fit
and quality of his clothes were not what Gram
mont or ID Orsay would have recommended; but
he was always scrupulously neat-BeethOven
himself having no greater passion for the bath.
His linen was ever immaculate; his boots,
though often coarse, we'll blacked his face
carefully shaven, and his hands as dainty kept
as those of fine woman. His cravat had a
tendency, II is true, to assume the shape of
hangman's knot, and his trowsers were often
suggestive of required continuance but that
he was really slovenly was palpably false. The
idle tales that he dIsarranged his toilet before
the lOoking-g lass, and carefully squeezed his
pantaloOns into the leg of his boot ere he ap
peared on the street, we're purposely told to
| annoy him, and strange to say, they had the
effect intended. He was sensitive on the sub
ject of his dress, and seldom received advice
thereupon with becoming equanimity. Oddly
enough, he believed himself very we'll attired
person, and that few men in his station went
better clad. Sartoral comments were wont &c
draw from him sharp and stngiDg replies.
When city editor Of the Tribune once sug-
gested the reformation of his eck.tie, Mr.
Greeley answered, "You don't like my dress
and don't like your department. If you
have any improvements to make, please begir
at home"
James Watson Webb, while editor of tn,
Courier and Enquirer, was fond of critcisinI
the costume OF his neighbor, who, referring Il
the fact that Mr.. Webb had been sentenced L
the:State prison, aud pardoned, for fighting
duel with Thomas f. Marshall, made thi
extinguishing rejoinder: "Assuredly no cos
tune in which the editor of the Tribune ha
ever appeared would create such sensation il

would have worn but for the clemency G

CONVERTIBLE BoNDs.-Few people under
stand the real nearing Of convertible bonds.
Here it is, given by a correspondent A board
of directors of railroad or any corporation
that issues bonds, finding the operation OF
their property Improbable and running them
in debt, have the power by explicit statute to
thus increase the capital stock Of the company,
sell it, and apply the proceeds 10 make up
deficiencies and to the payment Of dividends.
1t is very easily managed. Finding they must
have money the board votes to raise it on
convertible bonds" One or two bonds are
issued for the whole amount, and are imme.
diately converted into stock. Twenty-four
hours accomplish the whole thing, and the
shareholders wake to read in the morning
papers that the capital of their compeny has
been doubled without their knowledge, and
that the stock is on the market for sale for
what it will bring. Any one familiar with the
stock transactions OF the past fifteen years can
recall the wrongs perpetrated upon stock
holders by the sudden aud unexpected increase
of capital stocks

GETTING THE BOYS UP.-CallinG a boy up

head of "pastimes," especially if the boy is
fond Of exercise the day before. And ii is a
little singular that the next hardest thing to
getting boy out of bed is getting him into
it, There is rarely a mother who is success
at rousng a boy. All mothers know this; so
do their boys. And yet the mother seems to
60 at it in the right way. She opens the door,
and insinuasingly observes, "Johnny !" There
is no response "John-ny" Still no response.
Then there is a short, sharp John u followed
a moment later by prolonged and emphatic
John Henry" A grunt from the upper
regions signifies that an impression has been
made, and the mother is encouraged 10 add,
You'd better bs getting down here 10 your

startles the young man that he immediately
goes 90 sleep again. Aud the operation has to

How She Stopped It.

An exchange says the subject Of borrowing
and lending came up In the course OF conver-
satiOn with one of it's subscribers the other day,
when he suddenly recullected funny reminis-
cence of that character which had happened in
his own neighborhood. He said he had q
neighbor whose family were great borrowers,
but not so distinguished as paynasters-
they were always borrowing but seldom, if
ever, returned the exact amount borrowed.
An old Quaker lady, another neighbor, who
had endured these lnvasiOns for long time
patiently, ht upon very philosophical mode
of eventually putting a stop to the nuisance.
Keeping her own counsel, the next time her
good man went to town, he had a separate and
express order to purchase pound OF the best
tea and also new canister to put it In. As
he knew she already had plenty of tea and
also canister, he was puzzled to determine
what the old lady wanted Of more tea and q
new canister, but his questionings and reason
! ings elected nothing more than repetition OF
| the order
Jim, did not tell thee to get me pound
of the best tea and new canister? Now GO
along and do as bid thee.
And go along he did, and when he came
home at night the tea and new canister we're
his companions. The old lady took them from
him with an amused expression on her usual
parli feature and deposting the tea in the
1t had not long to wait, for the borrowing
mel ghbur had frequent use for the aromatic
, herb. The good old lady loaned generously
, emptying back in the canister any remittance
of borrowed teas which the neighbor's con
science inclined her to make. Time went on
; and after something less than the one huudredtl
e time of borrowing, the neighbor again appeared
{; for Just another drawing of tea, when tn
oft visited tea canister was brought out ant
found so be empty, and the good old lady AM
a obiging neighbor was just one pound Of tie
G poorer than when she bought the new caniste
t which now only remained to tell the story
;. Then she made ttle characteristic speech
J, perhaps the first in her life she said: Tho
>. seest that empty canister | filed ID for the

all to thee in driblets and put in to it all shO
