The million left by Sam Lewis, the
notorious London usurer, and the
benefaetions that have come to light
since his death continue to be a nine
days wonder among his acquaint-
ances in London. Beginning his ca
reer as money lender comparatively
late and very humbly, he made money
with marvellous rapidity. One reason
for this was that he never lost any, or
hardly ever, even at the gaming
tables, where he was delighted to take
his turn. To the poor people who
constantly applied to him for loans
he always replied that a poor person
could not afford 10 borrow An artist
not long ago paid a visit TO the fnan-
cier and told his story over the cigar
and glass Of wine which Sam Lewis
had always at hand. The artists re-

only $50, j could not afford to lend

THE LEARNED ASTRONOMERS.


/ knew a learned astronomer
Who an things earthly spurned,
And wandered through this pleasant land
With countenance upturned.
From early youth his habits were
To hold aloof from men.
lie thought this old worlds happenings
But little worth his ken.
he saw no wonders in the trees
or in the waving grass
He never thought it worth his while
To WOO pretty lass.
And not a whit this good man cared
For potentate Or pope;
To him the greatest man was he
Who made the telescope.
But sun ana moon arose and set
Precisely when he said,
lie knew whence each comet came
And where each comet fed
And for his plan 10 wipe the spots
From off the glorious sun.
Among the brethren Of his ilk
He much renoWn had won
This good soul died and went on high
But much 20 his concern
He found the knowledge CLEANED while
here
Left nothing more TO learn.
With telescope from DER d cloud
lie now peers down to earth
And finds out strange and wondrous

About his place Of birth.
