they will explain the circumstances
which induced thom 70 80 there rather
than 10 the more fashionable resorts. A
gentleman in the diplomatic service I'M
forms as that out OF every dozen Amer
leans who visited the Legation In Paris,
three. fourlhs, when asked where they
were stopping, would preface the intor-
nation by giving the reasons why they
we're not at the Grand Hotel. No one
ever crosses the ocean on a steamer OF a
cheap line without specifying some par
,ieular attraction which induced him to
make the choice. We have known men
who would never show you silver
watch wiihouttelling you how much they
preferred il, at the Same price, TO a gold
one. A gentleman who cannot afford TO
buy a solitaire diamond, will say that a
pearl or an emerald is much preltier.
Ii he dimes at cheap house on Third
avenue, he will insist the dinner is better
than Delmonico's. In short, the average
American never will admit that cheap
ness has any attraction for him or costi-
illness has any terrors.

Thackeray,s stimulns.

Carl Benson writes: ThackeraY once
told me that nothing but the want Of
money and the good things which it pro-
cured could overcome his natural indo-
lence. In this confession there may
have been something of mock-modesty,
something Of justification; but there
was apparently and probably good deal
of truth, and it has always remained
in my mind as one of the few genuine
cases in which poverty has acted favor
ably on genius. But observe that Thack-
cray began by being a rich man and a
gentleman. Had he not thus begun,
had he not had many wants, had he been
content with a small pittance and a
simple life for himself and family, he
would not have felt the spur of indul-
pence
