A Russian Story.

The Russian princes in Paris are all
men of large incomes, but generally
spendthrifts. One of them borrowed
the sum of ten thousand francs from
money lender. giving his note for the
same. On the day it fell due the holder
presented it for payment, and was told
by the prince that he mad no money to
waste In paying debts. At that moment
II gentleman entered. and the prince
handed him twenty thousand francs to
meet the losses of the night before at
the club The lender tore up his note
of hand, and said, when going out
Now, prince. there is nothing be-
tween us but debt of honor"
The prince bowed and handed over
the money without word. The sec
ond begins in the same way, but when
the lender presented his nste the prince
flew III passion. called him hard names
aud. drawing Il revolver made him eat
the note of hand.
A few days later the lender received
his money. with a thousand franc bill
thrown i'll AS interest Shortly after
ward the lender received a letter from
the prince. telling him that he was
again in want of money, and telling
him to present himsel with ten thou
sand francs and stamped paper upon
which to write his internal notes of
hand The lender came with the money.
Where is Your paper for the notef"
he said, taking the money.
Here 1t Is, prince" said the lender,
drawing a large cake of gingerbread
from bis pocket
The prince laughed at the joke. and
shortly atterward paid the debt with
interest

ANCIENT PoMPEH. One of the most
interesting discoveries in recent years
at Pompeii was made in 1878. when a
wooden chest was brought to light, con-
tanning the business receipts of one L.
Cacilius Jucundu. The chest crum-
bled to dust on exposure to the air, but
the tablets on which the receipts were
written have at length proved TO be
ieglble In many instances, and the re-
suit of careful study of these tablets
by Mommsen and others has been to
clear up several points in what was
among the Romans a matter of great
consequence, viz: the position of mid
dlemen in affairs Of business There
was not among the Romans the same
extensive system of shops as with us,
supplying every possible article of ne
cessity or luxury; and for this reason
there arose innumerable occasions of
private persons desiring to dispose of
this or that article, as for instance q
surplus OF agricultural products, old
carts old plows. or even old and inva.
lad slaves, as Cato recommends the
landowner 20 de. The tablets In Qucs-
tlon are dated according to custom, by
giving the names of the consuls for the
yerrs. The greater part Of the dates
fell between A. ID. 53-62 A few are
as early as 10 and 81. Since there is
no more recent date than 62, it becomes
highly probable that the tablets of Ju-
cundus had been overwhelmed in the
earlier eruptions of Vesuvius. The
majority of these tablets are triptychs,
and are written partly with letters of
wax, spread on the tablet, and partly
in ink on the bare wood. Among them
there is only one which gives the
amount of commission which he re.
ceived, and that proves to be two per
cent, which is known from other
sources TO have been the general rate
Usually he merely says minus the
commission The person to whom the
expense fell was the buyer.
New YORK REAL ESTATE The n.
Y. correspondent of Halifax paper
says: The shrinkage in real estate has
been fearful. A short time since an
extensive property on Fifth Avenne,
which was considered as likely to keep
its value aud improve as any in the
city, was sold at loss of $500. 900, or
one-half its original cost four years be-
fore. In New York to-day a man who
has money idle trembles at the thought
Of investing it. Real estate is unpro-
ductive. the railroads are frauds, the
banks are unsouDd, and the insurance
companies are stigma upon the integ.
rity of the people. If Mr.. Goldwin
Smith can sec any advantage to Can
ada in coalition with a country so
deeply Involved as the United States he
must be blest with faculties which are
denied to the rest of u.s.
