The Springfield Republican has the fol-
the GLOBE, a few days ago, in which a
commercial traveller was yoped in 10y one
of our Rutland b-hovs:
Mr.. Twiner travels for large business

quite unworthy, per Sc, to NEEDLE with Mr..
Twiners shoe-la,chets, but lie wore among
the regalia of his position a pin of such
depth of luster, that the eye of Mr.. Twiner
rested upon it GENEROUSLY. NEGOTIATIONS
were begun, and, when the clerks first
fabulous figures had shrunk to the reason
enable SUM of 800, bargain was struck.

seven dollars, though the fellows in the
marble quarries got them at material re-
duction by the bushol. Mr.. Twiner was
miserable. He went to that clerk and fell

to take back the pin, but the clerk said he
was poor, and didn't feel able TO give 800

tiously..
