UNBUTToNING IIoUsE.-The Paris res
idence of the late Duke of Brunswick, now
in the course of demolition, in the Avenue
Friedland, was a most extraordinary house
as all discovered who attempted to enter it;
for, like coat or waistcoat, it had to be
unbuttoned in order to get in. At the
front gate was metal button, and visitor
would have to press this. It instantly set
a number of bells ringing in violent COM
motion. Admitted into the garden, yon
still found yourself excluded from the house.
Another button had to be touched, and
that done you found yourself in an un-
furnished hall. There was no staircase
communicating with the upper rooms where
the Duke slept. More buttons had to be
pressed, and at last you found yourself
sitting in an arm chair, and raised by hy-
draulic lift apparently to the living rooms
which the Duke used to occupy. The walls
of the bedroom were armor-clad. By an
ingenious mechanism, touching button, a
panel III the wall was removed and entrance
gained. The strong box nearly killed the
workmen who endeasoled to open it, for it
sent off mitrailleuse- like discharge The
Duke do Treyiso has bs.ug ii the house.
and has stipulated that all lie treasure
| discovered III 1t shall belong to him.

A Model Son.


A Washington county merchant had a
son who was rather fast, and to encourage
him the father gave him an interest in his
store The young man at once devoted
himself to business, and the success of the
firm was marvellous. At the end of two
months he was intrusted with 81, 900 to go
to Troy and purchase goods. In that
wicked city he unfortunately fell in with
some convivial friends, and together they
made several days and nights of it, all at
the young merchants expense. Meantime
the senior member of the firm received a
letter from complaining friend y Troy
that his s., 900 was fast running down the
neck Of the junior partner. Furious, he
dashed off these lines:
MY Dear Son:-Unless you return to-
morrow morning with the goods will dis
solve partnership and shut up the store.
The Junior partner received this just as
he was tossing of a gin cocktail in the Troy
House. He read it, and then walking
across the street to hardware store ordered
hammer and a keg Of tea-penny nails.
Then te1egraphed to the senior partner:
Dear father:-I send per express a ham

AN OYSTER FIEND.--The Virginia (Ne-
yada) Chronicle of Ihe 3oth ultimo says
A teamster who lives ON the divide, be-
tween this city and Gold Hill, rolled UP to
Charley Legate's street oyster stand, IN
front OF the international, yesterday after
noon. and asked the price of Eastern oysters.
He was informed that they were dollar
and a half dozen. He reflected amoment
and said he would take $40 worth, which
would be six dozen and eight Of the BIZ
valves. To show that he meant no joke, he
put up the money and went to work. After
eating S5 worth he walked up and down
the block d few times and then finished the
remainder. He says he vas always fond Of
oysters and likes to have enough when he
starts in. He offered at any time toeat 80
worth as fast as they could be opened, if
any one wished 10 pay for them. II he
failed he would pay for them himself. He
and the lunch fiend, who recently ate four
dozen hard-boiled eggs On q bet, would
make d good team, and ought TO travel
together.
