money myself, and life had grown so
sweet, I was almost afraid of my good
fortune; and perhaps was just pun
ished for my want Of faith in Gods
providence. Well, one day had a
great surprise. Amt Huldah died, and
1 went away to the funeral; and when
the lawyer read out the will, she had
left me five thousand dollars-in q
stocking! The night I reached home
Jules came to welcome me, and 1
showed him the stocking and asked him
to guess and then threw the whole,
part Of which was shining gold and sill

pleasant sound. But it seemed
to me that Jules had something
on his mind that night, and 1 rallied
him about it; but that made him put
out. And then put the money back
into the stocking and locked it into my
desk, while he held fhe lamp; and 1
remember that when 1 opened the desk
he caught sight of the daRuerreotype
I'd had taken to give him on Christmas,
and begged it; and 1 wouldn't let him
have it, because it wasn't good, and 1
meant to sit again, and after he had
gone put it into the fire and said moth

there was something odd about him
he looked at me long and scarchingly,
as if he'd like to see my thoughts them
selves; and once or twice he began to
speak, and broke off with a kiss, and
finally he told me that should not see
him for few days, as he was going out

A few evenings since young man drove

still younger girl, and after seeing his
companion into the parlor made his appear
ance at the Office and asked If there was q
clergyman in the neighborhood. Frank an
swered In the affirmative, and inquired of
the youth If he intended to get married. He
allowed that he was. In order to proceed
fntelligently in sending for the parson, Frank
asked the would-be Benedict how much
money he had to invest in the ceremony.
The youth investigated his wallet and found
dollar greenback, which he reinforced
with currency and nickels fished from his
vest pockets, he: was enabled to report two
dollars and quarter, remarking that be
guessed he could 60 two dollars, having al
ready paid the Packwood three for the live

suggested to the officiating divine that it
was customary for the guests to kiss the
bride. This was agreed to while the mar
riage certificate was being signed, and
seemed to disconcert the husband, who
drifted out of the room with his hands in
his pockets, and looking over his shoulder
at the unexpected turn in the solennities.

bridegroom claimed the bride and carried
her off to the buggy, when the smiling cou-
pie departed for Skaneateles.

british Trade with New York.

The British Consul at New York observes
in his report to the foreign office, that the
decline In the trade of New York in 1875
with the United Kingdom and British pos
sessions was less than in the New York
tradc with other countries, the value Of the
British imports in New York showing de-
cline of about ten per centum and the ex-
ports about two per centum, while the value
of the New York imports from all countries
declined above thirteen per centum and the
exports to all countries about six per cent
urn.
But there has been an enormous decline
in the value of British imports into New
York since 1872, which WAS the year Of the
greatest British trade with that port. The
value then exceeded $500, 600, 900, and in
1875 It had fallen to the extent of $S5, ,OOO,-
900, or between 40 and 50 PER centum. But
the exports from New York to the United
Kingdom and British possessions, which
were not quite of the value of S21O, 900, 900
in 1879, still exceed $2O6, ,OOO, 900 in 1875.
Consul Archibald idds that the falling off
in the imports into New York of British
Manufactured goods is not attributable sole
ly to the depression in trade in the United
States or the diminished power of consump-
VAOAs ~ 40 Wv VAA63 AA - 0S0A0Auo4oOAS uo6ASO3
to an increase in American manufacture of
certain staple articles heretofore almost ex-
clusively imported from the United King
dom, and notably in manufactures of cotton
and iron.
British manufacturers must henceforth ex
pect an increasing competition in the United
States in these two branches of industry as
well as in fabrics Of silk. In regard to cot
ton goods, 1t is not alone that they are being
produced nearly as cheaply as in England,
but for certain kinds of goods manufactured
in some of the New York and New England
mills decided preference exists over the
highly finished calicoes and shirtings of
Manchester. But with stimulated produc-
tion wages in the United States will doubt
less advance, indirectly owing in no small
degree to the increased expense of living
caused by the heavy protective duties to
which American manufacturers so tenaci-
ously cling, and this element in the cost of
production will tend to diminish the force
Of competition with which British manufac- |
turers will have to contend and give them a |
