LESSON IN CHARITY.
inexpensive Philanthropic Deed of a
Liverpool Man.

One of those true hearted chaps often
read of in romances made his appear
ance in Liverpool few days ago, and
his sympathies were at once aroused by
the sight of three or four men waiting
for work.
I'll be hanged if it isn't tough" he
replied, when they told him they hadn't
had any work for month. How
would you like some oysters?"
They smacked their lips by way of
reply, and he gathered up a crowd Of
eight, marched them to a fish shop and
ordered oyster stews for each one.
1T just does my soul good to see
them eat" he said to the owner of the
place, as the eight got to work.
Yes, it's a beautiful sight" was the
ply.
1t makes me feel good in here" con-
tinued the stranger from Manchester,
laying his hand on his heart
"A good deed brings its own reward, !"
was the soft answer of the shop-keeper,
as he calculated his profits.
l can't rest here-I must do further
Sood, said the big-hearted stranger,
and he rushed out and brought in three
negroes, chimney sweep, two boys,
and an old woman, and ordered more
oysters. The fifteen people went for
oyster soup in a manner to amaze, and
their guardian nudged the shop-keeper
in the ribs and said See the gentle
lambs! oh, that 1 could feed the poor
CT all Lancashire!"
L ou are good man and heaven will
reward you," replied the proprietor, as
he hlled the dishes up again.
The stranger said he wanted to bring
IN just hve more, so as to say that he
led an even score, and he rushed out
after them, while the shop keeper sent
after more oysters, etc
The stranger did not return.
The fifteen in the shop licked their
plates clean and departed in ioyfuI
procession, and the last one had passed
out before the man who furnished the
soup had got through waiting for the
return OF the big-hearted stranger.
There were oaths and slang phrases
and Watchwords and expressions. de-
hvered in the purest English, but what
mattered it to the fifteen soup devour-
ers, who drew up in u line opposite and
resolved that them oysters lust
