The "Smart fellow"—A Brilliant Composi tion—The Precocious Trader—Philanthropy and Integrity- ,- -"Benefits"—Smasher and Fugle—Shopping in the City—lVitrburton's "Roman" Yetee. You have doubtless, in jcittr life-experi ence, encountered that rentarttabi6 individ ual denominated "a smart felloiti" and lucky enough, if you have simply encoun tered him as an opaque body which inter cepts the visual rays, will you be accounted by ell teen who have been so unfortunate as to have a little experience of that pestif erous biped easily enough recognized as the “smart fellow." Just at this moment, an incident of school life recurs to our mind, which may serve to illustrate, to d artuin extent, the peculiari ties and uses of our hero the universally re ceived "sntart fello*.;1 A youth, then a little our senior and one class in advance—who, by-the•by, is nod• a worthy professional gen:len - tan of excellent reputation and high standing—Was called on for,'a composition.'' The subject chosen was "Bravery," and the essay was of so profound and original a nature, emanating as it did from a philosopher of fourteen years. that it is a matter which when it comes to be found out, will be forever a sub ject of deep regret to the world, that such a piece of brilliant composition must be lost to mankind; saving and except the opening chaise, which was indelibly fixed in the minds of all tho , e who were fortunate enough to have heard it. The fullolting is the first paragraph: "Bravery is a very essential part of man's life; if a man is brave, he can be of great use to himself and to his friends and to his country and to all around ldm; but if a man is not brave lie cannot be of much use to himself and to his friends and to his coon. try and to all around liina." Now, in paraphrase of that remarkable observation, it may be said that if a man is a ",mart Pllow," he "can be of great u , t; t ) and to himself only; and not of the -lightest possible use, but only a pest. a nuisance and a thorn in the side "to his fricinls"—whoever they may be—"and to his country, and to all around him." There are, in the world, several types of this IN onderful creation of circumstances and conceit: tunoog which, the most common perhaps, is the smart fellow of business. In the expressive language of those who, hav ing experieneed him. ought certainly to know something—"he is a keen 'tin, his eye is always skinned and his earis always cocked." At the early age of fourteen years, having a strong taste for accumulating money, and none whatever fur accumulating wisdom, he compels his parents to "let him slide."— Eatering the establishment of a retail to loiceoni,t, he proceeds instantaneously to skin that i've and cock that car, which mem -Iprs—eseept (luring the brief periods of physical recuperation which recur as a ne cessity about once every four and twenty hours---neo•r will relax their condition of eager w a t c hf u lness until life's sun shall set in the dadow , s Vtlikh 110 !..Cllltiny can pen etrate. lit his new vocation lie makes re um:u•kable progress; POCIII gett,"lll, to snuff," tel a little beyond that point of standard wisdom; follow ing the idirewd game of sell iag penny eig:u•s lot two cents, and poeket lug the, difference he rapidly accumulates "quite a pile."

As this i. hut little after "all fools day," and the time o'year when a great deal of foolery and humbug is played oil in all the games of life, it is reasimalile enough that the theatrical profossion should have the benefit of the general license. Accordingly, there is a custom of very ancient date, in such circles. t t get up a series of extra performances of rare attractions, the proceeds of which are supposed to be applied for the "benefit" of some old favorite, or needy subject of pub lic ,leMsion; lint which in reality oftener go to swell the general fund of the lessee, the last:named individual bestowing upon the benificiary a very small consideration for the use of his name as a means to awaken the sympathies of the pudic. A few eve- I , flings sinew that gay fellow, Smasher. Who h.ts been termed the "resuscitator of the Drama" took a "benefit;' on which occasion Fu le, the talented nee, a "first man" in the business of a rival house, "in a spirit of" &e., &c., volunteered his valuable aid. The ' joke in this little arrangement is, that the said smasher and Fa„ lc 'lase teen at sword's points for it long; time; indeed, their dispute got into court, and each party f i nd of course made his friends among the public.„ , 'Therefore, In a spirit of pure love. and with Ti) v iew to make a sensation. Smasher got .s to Fugle and they two "mat. I a n arrangement.” The eventful occasion is at hand, the curtain rises, and Smatlver ap i pears upon the stage; his friends greet him 1 with hearty cheers; exit Smasher . ..mid Fugle enters amid the plaudits of his ft Wnils; in a little while, Smasher re-enters—vociferous clic:ring by the frietols of hoth—eries of "Surasher," crii, of '•Fogle;" cries of "Suter--her and Pugle," who in a spirit of reemiciliation, take eisrili the Land; the cries of approbation become painful to the human ear; the parties embrace—"Oh, it's 11 4 .utiful; it's too beautiful!" as Smash er's nititit6r remarked to Fugle's maiden aunt, both of irhom sat in a private box, and had come in on :tit order in Smasher's own hand writing. Fugle'.; chin goes down upon Smasher's shoulder, and hti stares tearfully • into the pit; Smasher's chin fulls upon the shoulder of Fugle, and his vision seeks to penetrate the gloom of the back scenery; Smasher's back is of course turned toward the tit: in the enthusiasm of the moment he sauce.tes his new. brother very tight, and nervously raises his right foot, laying bare his whole sole to a raptufous and sympa thetic audience; the house "conies down," so does the drop, which strikes Smasher on the heel and sends him limping to the green room. So much for the condition and pros pects of the drama in Philadelphia. The weather is very cool this morning, but the sky is as clear as a bell—or belle, and .itist as smiling. Shopping is going on as if there were four hundred weddings on the tapis ',tying. to crowd each other out of the dry goods and jewelfy shops; and the demand for "tiling" has increased to such a degree that hail storms are apprehended as the natural result of so Many weddings —but this is a malicious conceit engendered in the minds of bachelors! If any "tile" can weather such storms, or by its -Angular beauty and tastefulness avert their threat ening bolts, it is certainly the "Yeoman" I hat introduced by Mr. W. I'. Warburton, of 120 Chestnut street. A novelty has appeared on the city pas senger Railroad—a one horse car, which is in fact only an omnibus set upon ear wheels; the advantages are, that it requries only one horse, dispenses with the services of a con ductor, and contains a register of fares; but the economy of the arrangement, unless it consists in the register, may be questioned. Mr. A Ilibune, late President, and Mr. Newhall, Director of the Dank of Pennsyl vania, have been bound over fur trial on the charge of having defrauded the stockholders. From the confused condition of the books and accounts of the bank, it world seem b) be very dillieult to distinguish between the alleged frauds of these individuals, and the very culpable neglect of other persons whose lmsine ,, s it to watch the interests of the stockholders.

NEWIWORIS AmExtians.—Terence pun ii ugly places vicinity in the nearest relation to friendship, but with us moderns the case is quite different, a»d neighborhood and dis cord scour too commonly in the closest con nexion. A lastutilul example of the neighborly offices lats just been presented in action for trespass—" Dawson .os. Weight." The plaintiff, a chancery barrister, occupied premises overlooking which the defendant had erected a building from which all the movements of Mr. Dawson and his family were scanned through a telescope. By way of reprisal, fur this inconvenient inspection tne plaintiff mounted a ladder as near as possible to the defendant's observatory, and amused himself with blowing a horn, upon which he fund not learnt to play. Whether the last fact is stated in aggravation or mit igation of the vengeance designed is not quite clear, but we apprehend that the tor ture would have been much increased if the blower had conceited himself a performer, and learnt enough to draw out the horrors of the instrument. The defendant had now his turn. Plaintiff had no blind to his dressing-room window, and he was continu ally seen by the young ladies of the defen dant's family in an unfinished state of etmipment, alarming to a nice sense of pro priety. Plaintiff hereupon, for modesty, provides a screen of wooden boards, just three feet from the defendant's window.— The defendant, not altogether plea seti to have his daughters suffocated in their beds for want of air, men for flue object of saving their eyes Irma an offense to their modesty. cuts down the screen, which in its fall dour ages plaintiff's fruit trees. l'htintilf sets up the screen again, protecting the supporters against the saw or hatchet by a casing of sheet iron. Defendant is nut to be so baf fled, and again brings the obnoxious screen'' to the ground. Plaintiff erects it again, su as to defy any attempt at cutting down, and defendant and his friends then resort to the use of a regal: r battering ram, after the manner of the ancients, and threw down the screen for the third time wilt loud cheers of triumph. Beaten thus by force of arms, the plaintiff appeals to the law for redress, and all the neighborly acts on both sides are proved in evidence. The verdict for 1111111. ages is one shilling. And consider how much has been hail for that shilling, and I what a pleasant thing it must lie to live near such a neighbor on either side, whether the Dawson with the horn, the imperfect toilette, and the screen, or the Weight with the ob servatory, the telescope, the hatchet, and the battering rand Fur proficiency in die art of tormenting them is certainly nothing like the Condition or the dispositions generated by juxtapo-dtion, the ill will being in in verse proportion to die tlistanee.--boa/un ilvaos (net% A rills:Est: Taa Gagazs.--Wo bustle our way through tl. narrow streets.

Half-aidozen voices in rapid dialogue, sounds, and movements, and cries of animals, and the clatter of falling articles, tell the action of the plot. The company from the tea-table , , who had gath ered round, wag their tails with loughter, especially at the broadest sallies of humor, and at the most indecorous denouements.— In truth, there is no difficulty, even to us, in comprehending R hat is supposed to lie going on in dint little room. The incidents are, indeed, somewhat of the broadest—not so bail as the scenes iu our old English come dies. such as "The Custom of the Country," for instance, or "The Conscious Lovers:" but still they are very minutely descriptive of facts not proper to be described. The man's talent, however. would gain him full audiences in Europe, without the aid of gros~nc;, For.r.owiso A SHARK.—Sumo time ago, a gentleman and one of his servants, a stal wart negro, went fishing for rock on the Bay shore, about ten miles from this city. They east their hooks and lines, and waited for a bite. The big darken after wading out some feet from the shore, tied the line around his body. His master told him there was danger in doing so: but the sable fishermen suspected no difficulty or accident. Soon an old shark, a real old sea flog, came along and swallowed the bait with a good relish, and Sands) held the line with a firm grasp. The powerful fish, however, drew I him gradually out in deep water, when. lintlitlg that be was in danger of being car ried out to sea, in order to cut the line he made a desperate grasp at his knife, which was fastened to his hair hall shut, a portion of his hair In between the blade and I the handle; bat it was too late. The hungry inc,nster of the deep, by a rapid movement, slackened the line and dashed furiously out from the shore, followed by the durky, who alternately disappeared beneath the walss rose to the surface, grabbing at his knife as he rushed on with almost lightning speed in the wake of the shark. Ile was seen at the distance of nearly a mile, as he coca si wally rose to the surface: but soon disap peared entirely far beyond the reach of as sistance, and a victim of Iris own hazardous daring and imprudent temerity.—Suuthcra A rgus.
