Miss Nelson and Josh Billings.

Considerable interest, as well as
amusement, has been created in San
Francisco at a grim joke perpetual
ed by certain photographers by their
manner Of displaying in their wins

The Chronicle, in the gratifca,
ton of its constant desire to publish
useful information, said to its thou

Mr.. Billings was the homeiest man
that ever came to San Francisco.
This opinion we are pleased to say,
is fully shared by Mr.. Billings
himself, as the following note will
testify:

My Dead Brother on Ice. p"

4 well-dressed young man, aged
about twenty eight years, horid

side whiskers, and presenting gems
orally quite respectable appear
ance, has been going the rounds for
some time past, Imposing upon the
credulity OF merchants in the fol-
lowing manner He manages, in
a most systematic way to obtain an
introduction by some means to his
intended victim. Having thus
broke the ice, he engages in conver-
sation with his new acquaintances,
and, by his conversational abilities,
manages to impress them with the
idea that he is on intimate terms
with their friends. lie then dis
appears from their presence for
about three days, but returns on the
afternoon of the fourth day, between
the hours Of t and 5 in the alters
noon. On entering he Immediately
rushes up to the owner of the estab,
lishment and requests a few min
utes private conversation, which
being granted, he unfolds the fol>
lowing doleful tale: Mr.. Smith,
oh, pardon me, sir; hut I just res
ceived the following telegram from
Philadelphia producing forged
dispatch) informing me that my
brothers body has just arrived
from Charleston and that his body
is On ice at the Pennsylvania depot,
owing to the fact that the freight
charges were not prepaid. You see
his death is SO unexpected that [
really don't like to 60 over to
Brooklyn to obtain the necessary
funds to defray the expenses from
mother for fear of shocking her
nervous system. Moreover, it is
after banking hours. May I re-
quest that you will feel pleased to
advance a sufficient sum to pay my
expenses to Philadelphia and re-
turn. 1t is onlya a matter of about
$40, ann will hasten on my return
to refund the amount
On several occasions he has been
successful in obtaining the money.

charitable instincts and desire to
help a fellow being in distress
prompts him to advance the amount

never complained that he gradually
forgot his quiet little worshiper while
he was busy setting the world to
rights and making name Tor him
self" She never blamed him because
he told her to keep away from him
when his fine company came, or scold-
I'd about the uncongenial atmosphere
of his home, where there was nobody
but a simple wife and children to
minister to his ambitious spirit. This
was no common man. 1t was crea-
ture whose talent and genius" must
not be narrowed down to the ordi-
nary domestic duties, being destined
for the pride of the lyceum and the
admiration of advanced tea tables,
and privileged in consequence to be
moody, cruel and dissatisfied at home.
Poor woman, how she nursed his
vanity and selfshness! Little by little.
he got farther and farther away from
her. He needed literary companion
ship, and she was. not literary. He
yearned for the society of bold think
ers, and radical reiormers OF every
eccentric variety. and she was only
an old fashioned body, who cared
more for the fresidc than the crowded
hall, and wanted somebody to love
her. Loud-voiced women came to
confront her at her own table.
Blatant prophetesses made her par
lors hideous. The man who had ia
ken her for better or for worse began
to discuss her failings and to question
her honor in the company ofsagacious
social revolutionists. Anybody might
have foreseen the end. The hero
stalked through two cities, exhibit
ing his sores, and praying the world
to behold how he was dishonored,
while the wife ran heart broken to
the cemetery and threw herself upon
the graves of her children.
To learn the lesson Of this domes-
tic history it is needless to know who
has sinned or how much has been for
given. The first fault is plain enough.
There is no such thing as social pros
perity and happiness which does not
rest upon the purity and union of the
family. What shallow charlatans are
those, who seek to raise the condi-
ton of women by crushing their own
wives, while they turn neat phrases
in the newspapers and sound sonorous
periods on the platform. What poor
fools are the vain AMI giddy orators
and cssayists, who look for the golden
age OF a renovated society, while they
waste their domestic fortunes and
flout the homcly duties which lie at
their very hand.-N. Y. Tribune.
