you with liiy correspondence ; no, Doctor,
divest yourfcelf of that ambition.
I write you in accordance with /the ’law
of honor among thieves, and to do you the
justice of returning to you the enclosed
pieces of paper which are of value to you
and worthless to me —one 'being a note
payable to your order, and the.other a for
mula for making teeth —-neither of which
can ever he available to me, as my present
employment probably pays better, and ish
business! more pleasing to. my taste- ; Fronw
the date d# the note I concluded that you
had beeu !in town for several days,, which
may account for the lightness of your
purse. Now, doctor, a proper respect lor
gentlemen! of my calling should never al
low your purse to become so low ;itis liard
ly up to the average of usual collections.
Then I have reason to protest against
gentlemen; of your standing carrying un
current money. It is under serious con
sideration to return to you,the So on the
Morris County Bunk, New Jersey, which
I find at considerable discount; the six
fives on the Poughkeepsie banks go cur
rent, and! the few smallest bills can be easi
ly disposed of by a person of my habits.
Prom the name and recipe which I found j
in the pocket-book, I conclude that you
are the well'known dentist who not long
since did jnC much service in your line of
business,; -while pursuing my avocation
iu Poughkeepsie.
Now; doctor, don’t consider it New York
hospitality to extract purses in return for
extracting teeth, but remember that all
have to do something for a living. You
were following your avocation on me, and I
was only doing thesamc.on you when you
visited oui - city —and this case affords a fair
example of the comparative profits of your
business.! You spent.much-time and re
ceived asruallfee ; mine'was an operation
of a moment. When I. consider this dif
ference, find the gentle manner with which
you attended to me', I am quite inclined
to return;your purse and its contents, but
that wpujd be unprofessional, and beside,
would involve a loss of time on my part,
for such crowds do not Occur every day
even in New York; but be assured that,
had I ‘recognised you, I would have spent
the time appropriated to you upon some
person] t
The ,only reason I can . ascribe for not
remembering you is, I presume, that when
you come to the city you dress up in your
best, and look very different than when at
tending io your business at home. This
little lesson may ho of service to you, and
learn you that pocket-books are not safe in
crowds; und if you'are ever caught iu one
again, let your vigilance' be directed to
your pprae ip proportion tti its dimensions.

MrjAsron Lagg, an accomplished “bar
ker,” Mis yesterday standing at the door
of ids employer's clothing store, in South
Street, imaking the air vocal with importu
nate appeals to the personal vanity’ of all
who happened to pass by, whop he percei
ved a iD£xldd}e-aged iudmduallu very slo
venly attire, and with a very tall-crowncd
white Ixat, standing as if absorbed ; in ad
nurati6,ii of Mr. Lagg’s eloquence. Aaron
immediately insisted on the stranger's en

his shoulder, conducted him in, without
.meeting* with the slightest resistance.
“ Shad I show you somesplendid panta
loons,; or a magnificent vest or coat ?”
bhmdly .inquired Mr. Aaron Lagg.
“ Whichever you choose; —its all the
same to me,” carelessly replied the, other.
Pleased with the tractable disposition of
his customer, Aaron produced an overcoat,
decorated with a double row of huge bone,
and pude of a material much rc
sembhjog blue haiac^..
“Here,” aaiddire, “is the very last Paris

Johu Granby is my napio,” quietly
observed the stranger.
“ Well, Mr. Granby, ■you cannot have
any objection to such a coat as tliatatuinc

ph no, I haven’t the least objection
again’gt it,” said Mr. G.
, “ Ydry well,” continued Lagg; “ you’ll
want-a handsome vest, fit to wear with
such U;coat. Something like this,” .
Herb he produced a sky-blue vest, cov
eredl - red devices, which? looked
like p Congregation of comets “ brandish

“ Hfere’a a neat thing,’’ observed Mrj

Here the mortified Lagg ordered G. out
of the store, and the latter very meekly and
respectfully took leave; but soon after his
■ departare, Aaron s mortification was re
doubled on discovering that the customer
had gone off with the brilliant vest and
dazzling pantaloons stuffed away under his
loose-monkey-jacket, which had d«?ubtless
been contrived for such purposes. —Lagg

Tbc Fair Incendiary.
It is now about forty years, since a young
lady, the only daughter of ian ancient and
noble house in the north of Germany, from
having been one of she most cheerful girls,
became subject to fits of the 'deepest mel
ancholy. All the entreaties of horparents
were insufficient to draw from her the reas
on of it —to their affection she was quite
cold, to their caresses rude; and though
society failed to enliven her, she bore her
part in it with a power and venom of sar
casm that were as strange to her former
charctar as they were unbecoming her sex
and youth. The parents contrived,during
her temporary absence from home, to in
vestigate the content* ol her writingdesk ;
but ho indications of a concealed or di*ap- |
pointed passion were to be found, and it j
was equally'clear that no papers had been
removed. —The first news they heard of
her was, that, the house iu which she had
been vistitng had been burnt to the ground,
that she had been saved with difficulty,
though her fbom was not in that part of
the buiiding where'the fire bad commen
ced ; that her escape at first had been ta
ken for granted, and that when her door
was burst open, she was lbun|is.lill.dressed,
and sealed iu her usual melancholy atti
tude. with her eyes fixed on the floor. rShe
returned home neither altered nor changed
in demeanor, and as painfully brilliant in
| conversation!’when forced into it. Within
I two mouths of her return the was
i burnt to the ground, and her mother per
| ished in the flames. She was again foilnd
in-the same'state as on the former occas
ion, suffered herself to be led away without
eagerness or resistance, did not alter her
deportment upon hearing of the fate of her
mother, made no attempt to console her
father, and replied to the condolence of
her friend* with a bitterness and scorn al
most demonical. The father and daughter
removed to a Spa; for a change of scene. —
On the night of her arrival the hotel was
iu flames; but this time the fire began in
her appartment, for from her windo w where
the sparks first seen to issue ; and agj,iiu .
she.was found dressed, sealed, and is a
reverie. The hotel wins the property of the
sovereign of the little state iu ivliich the
Spa was situated. An investigation took
place; she ,was arrested, and at once con
fessed that on each of the three occasions
she was the culprit; that she could not
tell wherefore, except that she had mi im
resistible lodging ,tp set houses on 'fire, —
Each time ’she had striven against it as
long as she could, and was unable to with
stand the temptation ; but this longiugfirst
supervened a leV weeks after she had been
seized with, a sudden depression of spirits;
that she felt a hatred to all the world, hut
had strength to refrain from oaths and
curses against it. She is at this moment
in a madhouse, where' she is allowed some
liberty. She still possesses her memory,
her reasoning powers, and her petulcut wit.

following delicately but respectfully wor
ded protest. We imagine, however, that
it is mote,ft matter of fashion than of taste,
and that the ladies must bo allowed toHset
tle it tlieir own way. We doubt whether
the poet's arguments in favor the ‘‘ white
as pure as drifted show, 4 Would hold good,
at least in this, at present, filthy city .

An Irish Manner of Stopping a
Our folks’ hare got of the ver
itablcst kind. She is a queer duck, and as
good- tialiu'cd us a' ’basketof chips.” Wel|,
last Sunday, as we were sitting down to
dinner, we“ found the old cat, with three
young grimalkins, largely engaged in the
nursery business, under the- tabic.
“ Biddy,” said we, take this cat and
her kittens, and put them whejre we shall
never see them more.” A hint of dreadful
import, but not understood.
“ Faith, sir, and that I will-”
The feline family were removed, and we
proceeded to dine. By and by Biddy re
entered, with an expression on her face
that seemed to say, guess they’re in safe
keeping now
“ Well, Biddy, what have youdonewith
the old cat and herikittejxs V-
“ Bc-gor sir, they’re safe, though, sure,
D'ye mind the l wood - house forninst the
stable i Well, I|Ut them in there,
and fastcmicd the door and winches Then,
seeing there was a hole ]benpath where they
might get out, and X stopped that up too,
and so ye see, they won’t trouble yoa any
more.” s ;
We were satisfied “ ay coorse,” and we
ate ouy dinner: in peace ; afterwards We
walked into the yard, when we saw the
‘dintical’ old cat and bp* kittens at perfect
liberty. Calling we said
“ Bid you not say you fastened that cat
in the wood house i
“ Faith, an’ I did, sir.”
« And stopped the hole ?’’
“Yes, sir.” : :’ '
Well' she had, that’s a fact; hut what do
you suppose shef had; stopped. the hole
with ? She had stuck a section of stove
pipe into it! And therO sat One of the little
