A Ducai Auecdote.

A story OF on English nobleman, re-
Gently deceased, is told by the MAN
A bout Town" in the English Sporting
Gazette We give it in his own words;
The Duke" he says, was once in
church, no matter where, when q collec-
ton was announced for some charitable
object. The plate or bag, or whatever
it might be, began to 60 round, and the
Duke carefully Put his hand into his
pocket and took out a form, which he
laid on the pew before him ready for
transfer to the plate. Beside him sat
little snob, who noticing this action imi.
tated it by ostentatiously laying SOW
ereign alongside the ducal form. This
was too much for his grace, who dipped
his hand into his pocket again and
pulled out another form, which
he laid by the side Of the first.
The little snob followed suit by
laying another sovereign beside
the FIRST. His grace quietly added a
third form, which was captured by
third sovereign on the part of the little
snob. Out came fourth form to swell
the Dukes donation; then the little snob
triumphantly laid three sovereigns at
once upon the board The Duke, not to
be beaten, produced three forms. just
at this moment the plate arrived. The
little snob took up his handful Of SOW
ereigns and ostentatiously ratified them
into the plate, then turned defantly to-
ward his rival, as who should say, /
think that takes the shine out Of you.
Fancy his chagrin when the Duke, with
a grim smils, put one form into the plate
and quietly swept the remaining six
back into his pocket. His grace used to
chuckle when be told that story, and /
think on the whole he bad the best Of il"
