NEW YORKISMS.

New York. Jan. in, 18C9.
THH HWXDLRRS AND TBR SfflNDLHD.
OocMipoAll huuisnlij cuius to roiolre iUcK
4nto two Rrt at clssc', one of which resides In
.ftew York and likes to swindle, aud the other of
Jwhlch reside out of New York and like to bo
swindled. One Is an active part; and the other
Is a passive; one a big swindler, and the other,
'for the mo t part, a tribe of small swindler.
The bin swindlers tire forerer ditrtliiir. about
Iroia ptaoe to plaoe, cbanglng tbelr Dames like
signboard in a pantomime, Vauish1n.fr and turn
log up at ODMiBpected plucei, like the harlequin
pursued by the unsuccessful rlowiu The little
swindlers address plaintive notes to the Supsr
Inteodcnt of Police, but never Ure to lodge a
, formal ctinpliilnt or to Institute u suit.
, The people who run theo mviud'.cs arc In
league with oueanoth'T. T'j niedicul swlndlis
'the gift swioiile, the dollar otore swindle, the
partner advertiscnuent awimllv, th? cuariulc
swindle, tie grand concert swindle, are all
.conjoined. Tlie pbyticUn whoso souUsof life
have nearly run out Is Identical with tuo
. cdobrated herb doctrew;tne retired clcry
f roau who Is aoxloa to benefit his raej If a
tamped envelope be tent him is t ?ln limine t
to the Indian the fame o( wnosc liniment has
! extended to the ends ol tde s-irtru But it la the
' men who advertise the great iril? mvIuuVs who
, find at once their willing dup.v and partners to
, their rami oo the Inhabitant' of alinjst every
1 town aud city In the Union.
Tbeic first-class swindler Impose per -on ally
In many caee by the plMidor in their physique
. and the unexceptionant. urn of their a'.ttrc.
They impose, in a bunuess way, by the extent
aud magnificence of the olikr ihey eiigage, aud
, the quantity of account-books Wgers, circu
lars, check-books, and basaif, parapherualla
Which they display. They provide themselves
With diiectories to every town and city of the
Union whioh possccs one, and when they are
unable to obtain names they resort to post
office lists. They address thrnnds of letter?
to individuals whose names are tints choseu
bap-hazard, informing each one that the ticket
he hoid has drawn such or such
a prize. The pa.ties to whom such
letters are addressed ii'.ver purchased
any ticket, and do not hold any. Esf;n one,
however, bi'j poecs that a mtMik': is made, that
a letter has reached bint tii'.,Titcd for houi
other person. Mid that In due tiuie he will com:
Into possesion of the prle eor.rioudlue with
the nuuibc'i of the ticket which he is informed
he hold. All that he is riu?ted to do is to
forward within tcu day the mai of $10, the
' percentape on the prize to which he is entitled'
' and which is variously represented as a gold
watch, a Bteinway or Cnicar-riiift ptanja, or a
, $200 diumond ring, lly lorrt aidins; the SslO he
thus becotni'a a party to the frud. He is
' silently coi niviinr at a chia, and luylu.; claim
f to property wUicli he believes om other persoa
! Id entitled to. Thiit be should do o aires us a
rather htioiilmtii'g idea of hum:tn nature, but
$ perhaps people who have st-u miii-'h of the dark
' sidoof life me prepared to e;ii"i'.:tin Ideas of
, that nature At any rate, it ir a fact that three-
fourths of the parties to wlio-ii such circulars
' arc addressed will .forward Hie Uf named, and
quickly anticipate the at rival v' a prize wuioh
they cannot help believiur I" n ally the property
of bouie oincr person. Thi is lue reasou why
gilt awindlCH are saoh a frantic .ucte.i. There
are more, thau two doen in tlui e:itj, aud ot all
kinds probably two thousand would be
a numoer m-arer Ibe mark. The circular
j which lutorMia the party u wi.mn it is ad
i dressed that u pilne ban been drattn, likewise
I particularly requests him u'itln r to o:ill nor
I send for it, and five fis a re won. that the bu-.i-
ness of the office is to extensive tbal nulna thi&
, rule were adopted the clerk- would be over
run with calk rs and unabk to attend to lbs
demands ol any. It requests the drawer to
expect the delivery of the prize within ten or
twelve 6ay; and It is needless w ay that the
""drawer goei ou expedite un'.il expectation
ceases to be a virtue,
. t The dollar stores are a leer ii'Urloiia braocii
''of the same tuupuidcect innnl. A hit rut some
store aud eligible site are scieetcd, and khrlve
windows, counters, and cae are packed with
-' everything calculated to attract tte eye. Aoove
all, "one W.uiued beauiilul jouu lniief,'' who
have at ouee a rouged and wo-bcs;oue appear
" auee, ate engaged to laseiiiae ic.ilc purchaser
' ' into the delusive b- lief that ai much there citi
begot for fl.as anywhere ei.-e for $1". Oa
everything thtt is sold at thee, dollax store-t
' you may be sure that the proprietor mace a
handsome profit. All theegiiiteribi; pinchbeck
article 'ire made lor the oco'iem, and it i
. only bumpkins be they city tu-npkius or
.country bumpkins who wilt purchase with
the expectatiou of gettln; their money' worth.
When the gut enterprise W got Hp uukr pre
tcueof a charitable purpo e, the willing vic
i tinis to whom circulars are M ut lU'.ter ihem
selves that by oue little act of di.-honesty they
axe doiugr go'id to tbe pour and i iiy. They
''reverse the aohitr.sm, andjborutv the liwry of
' the Devil to serve heaven it..
An advertiaement for a partner a very (re
' ' qaent swindliiitc dodge. A young man i wanted,
with a few hnudrtd dollHTa eapua.1, to engage iu
an hoiiotahie and liitiaiiv buines. Some
smart fool, who has saved a fehunired dollar
i out of hla legitimate business, aoc'tr to the
I advertisemeiit, and Is half lultia'.ed into the
tttysterlcs of ohle gift liKllinr eoneeru, the
proprietor of which are the advrrtisers iu
question. The lmuu ne numb' i of ktteO: cou
tainlug uio lie y are laid belore tm astouUliud
eyes, and he ii induced to bel-evc that by In.
,x vesting what he possesses he will In a few
mouths reatit'i several thoniand for every hun-'-
lred so sunk, lie in vests. The Cxm kuddoufy
r collapses, like the dr;am of a dream, and even
if he should ever discover U)irh''renboutn, ho
di-re not pionecute, kcowic? hiuuelf to have
ibee n a partuer in the fraud.
Tbe fools that are swindled by mediil .tdver
, tisrmouu are ni, perhaps, to much to bm.ne.
11 tbe retired clergyman, or Old Sands ol Life,
or tho luJian physician, or the herb doctors
aak la a stamped envelope bear!nfr the address
s of the party wUuln the so(ciao forwarded.
t, Nothing could be cheaper or Mijpler, and tho
envelope mil htamp lorwarded. This Is only
the first step, however, an 1 In f pile of Madame
Dudevaiu'd witlicliui, it Is the second, and every
uboqucal :p that are fjun l to "con" ai
; ' well as tli Prat. W'ben tb recipe h
forwarded, i n ueb as ?carc. ly any druggist In
a small town (:om which n li" to meJicai
advertiseii.e.nt.s jirn g'turaily received) can
, , voinpoupd. wUJiqv.V cu-iiual'ig -i-uis li
conveolenr.f , for the simple reason that he has
net the material on band. To tbe reoipe the
retired clergyman baa probably attached a few
lines to (he effect that if It is impossible to pro
cure the articles named la the neighborhood,
he will undertake to get the recipe prepared in
New York if hla correspondent will forward him
from three to five dollars. Very often the
money is sent. Twenty thousand answers, each
containing trora three to ttvo dollars, may come
bark to the retired clergyman if he wotki the
matter right. Very often he returns no
replies, but sometimes he forwards some
simple preparation which cpsts , him
from twenty to thirty cents. In all case he
n akes a vast sum of money, and when his vic
tims rule him out In tbe metropolis, they will
find the apartments vacant, or people of a very
different description occupying them.
New York ia the great emporium for swin
dles of this description. They are New York
i.ra of the firm water. Nor, in nine Cases out
of ten, are the victims to thy gift swindles to bo
pitied. For the victim is usually an accessory"
in whatever other light he may couslder hicu
helf, and dare not pro-ecute Irom the very fear
ol i-cU-convietion. All Beat.
