the Welcome Call saloon and address
ing the proprietor, "Sit down here
a moment and let me refresh your
memory. Several years ago, came in
here and got a dollars worth of
whisky on credit. Here is your money,
sir, handing over a dollar.

That's all right | got a quart of
whisky and told you that | would pay
you the following day. That night I
received a dispatch stating that my
father was dangerously i'll. l hurried
away, having borrowed the money.
When l got to New York, found that
my father was not so bad off that he

sequently | was sent abroad. l re-
mained away several years, attending

you sooner.
That's all right" said the saloon
keeper, "but really don't remember
that you ever got anything of me"
"Yes, did. Nobody can say that

Sometimes | have money and some
times haven't"
'Well," said the saloon keeper, Il
am very much obliged to you"

Say, have you got any tirst-rate

Bismarck's Audience Room.

The audience chamber of the Prince,
presumably one of the smallest in the
whole house, contains only two OBJ
iects of any pretension, in the shape
of two artistic mantel-pieces. Near
the door is huge umbrella stand, the
trunk of an old oak forming the base,
surrounded by tall spreading antlers.
1t contains the wonderful collection of
walking sticks of all sorts belonging to
the Prince, including the one which
he carried through the day of the bat
tie Of Koniggratz. On the antlers Of
the stand he hangs his hat-always
tall chimney pot-or he places ii on
little table. also of stags' horns, stand
ing by it's side. Close to 1t on the
wall is a portrait of Beaconteld, from
a crayon sketch taken in 1878, under
which Bismarck has written In red
pencil the name of the English states
man. Facing it is a IN. Theirs from
the picture of M. Bonnat:" Both
pictures are good likenesses. but it is
difficult to say whether they have been
brought together by accident or design.
Further on, life-size bust in bronze
of Marshal Moltke stands on low bu-
reau. The base is entirely hidden oy
an immense wreath of laurel and oak
leaves, bound with broad ribbon OF
black, red, and yellow. Above is
portrait of the astute Cardinal Hohen-
iohe. Besides these. the furniture con
sists of a small equestrian statute OF
Charlemagne. gun cupboard, an ord
nance map of FREDERICKSBURG and ltS
environs, some other maps, Dook
case, and close to the window round
table and two arm-chairs. The genera
effect produced is one of want OF taste
and fitness, and it is the same in all the
apartments especially used by the
Chancellor; as If there was an aitecta
ton of showing how The Statesman
rises superior and indifferent to th'
graces and amenities of daily lie. -

President Arthur's Law Office.

Half a dozen men have been busy
lately completing the interior finish of
an elegant Office in the new Mutual
Life Insurance building which is to be
occupied by Chester A. Arthur as u
law office. The woodwork and furni-
ture are mahogany, with cherry trim
mings, aud the men at work in the
room say that it will be one of the
most richly furnished offices in the
building. The Office is in the north
end of the building, with windows
looking out upon Nassau and Liberty
streets. 1t is on the fourth floor, adj
joining the Chamber of Commerce
rooms, and few feet away is the
New York office, of Gen. b. +. Butler.
1t is believed that Mr.. Arthur intends
to resume his relations with his former
partners, Messrs. Knevals and Ran
som, to whom the new office is
leased from May l.-NeW Yort

Solemn Fast Day in the Jewish World.
On Friday evening at sunset will begin
tue Day OF Atonement, or the feast Of
Y0m Kippur, the hottest day Of the year

manner OF work shall ye do on this same
day; for it Is a dav Of atonement 10 make

among his people. And if there DO any
person that doth any work on this same
day, then will ! destroy this same person

A BRIGHT TRADE OUTLOOK.

Business Men Not Looking for a Boom,
but Steady Trade.
The outlook for a season Of renewed &C
tivity in trade circles seems to be bright,
judging from the opinions Of a number OF
leading merchants who were spoken to
yesterday on the subject.
No wendefined boom is expected in any
branch OF trade, but 1t is anticipated that
the volume CT business viii be greater
Than during any corresponding period for
several years. The grocery men say that
il is almost too early yet 70 form a correct
idea of what the business OF the season
viii approximately amount to.

Der" said a prominent dealer. "are gem

parently promising ones. but August or

most promising stands OF cotton. A
cyclone comes along, or the caterpillar
visits the fields. and in a few hours
plumbers the cotton plant OF its wealth.
Nearly all the planters are, however,
more prudent than formerly, and only
make purchases OF necessaries in such
quantities as are needed to meet their
current wants. Hence, although they
may have asked some indulgence, tenn
porarily, in the way OF meeting their Obli-
cations, they are on a satisfactory footing.
We have had no reason TO complain on
account OF collections up to this time,
and don't expect 70 have any"
A leading provision dealer, in discussing
the situation, said: "EVerything look 5
fair. We are doing as fine run Of bust
ness as could be expected, and the indica-
lions are that the season will be an active
one. 1t is true that some Of the dealers
have already been well supplied with
stocks on orders given early in August,
in anticipation Of UNUSUALLY large crops of
all kinds, anu that it Will take them some
time TO work them OF. Collections
are not prompt now, but in two OF three
weeks, when the cotton shall have been
sent in from the field to the merchant, the
obligations will be discharged. Hence
there is no complaint to be made about
collections"
