AvariciOusness OF the English.

Nothing is more novel and stunning
in its effect upon travellers from this
country in England then the constant
obtrusion of the everlasting sixpence in
places where we should consider it an
insult to all proper or sacred feeling.
An Englishman in almost any rank will
accept pay or money for kindly SER
vices, which here the poorest would
offer gratuitously. If he tells you the
way on the street or gives you the
time of day, or light for cigar, no
matter how good his coat, the chances
are that you will not offend him by tip.
If lady calls at a friends house, she is
expected to tip the servant who shows
her to the drawing room; if you stay by
invitation at private house over night,
you will find the whole corps of servants
drawn up waiting for their money in the
hall in the morning; their master saves
himself SO much of wages by your gifts,
aud counts on saving it. Very few
Americans would be willing to throw
open the privacy of their homes to the
public to increase their income; but if
an Englishman's house is his castle, or
can by any means be made a show place,
he turns an honest penny by exhibiting
it. The shilling, or crown, or sovereign
paid by visitors to the servants who
escort them through the great houses
goes, not to the servant as is often sup
posed, but directly into the pocket of
the master. In the cases of Chatsworth,
Blenheim, and places of that grade, the
revenues of the ducal owners are in
creased thousands of pounds by this
means. The American is just as fond,
probably, of the almighty dollar as his
British cousin, but he manages to get it
in different way.-Ne,C York Tribune.
