The following is copied from a New York paper, printed in the year 1775, and is related as a fact, Similar eases often occur in these days,where a parent $2,00 PEP. YEAR IN ADVANCE; $2,50 IF NOT PAID IN ADVANCE. ihaving given all into the hands of his children, is obliged to spend the remain der of his days iu poverty : At this time there is living in Harlem an old man who relates the following story of himself. lie was possessed of a pretty good farm, with everything neces sary for his business, and had one child, a son, who having married, it was agreed that the young couple should live in the house with the parent, as he was a wido wer. These things went on exceedingly well for some time, when the son pro posed to his parent that he should make over to him his estate, promising to build a new house and otherwise improve the farm. The father through persuasion, gave him a deed or gift of it, and every thing belonging to it. After a few years, as the father grew old, he grew a little fretful and dissatis fied, while the sou, thinking he had nothing more to expect from him, forgot his filial duty and used his old father worse that, his servants. The old man was no longer permitted to eat at the table with his son and wife, but com pelled to take his meals in the chimney corner, and was continually ill used by them. The iibusage of the old man was at length carried to such a height that he could no longer bear it, but left the holm and went to a neighbor and r of his, (loci:trim , that if his friend could not help him get his farm back again, he should be obliged to come and live with them. Ms friend answered that he might come and live with him, and if he would follow his directions, he would help him to get his estate back again. Take this bag of dollars, carry it to your room at your son's, shut it up well in your chest, and about the time you expect they will call you down to dinner, shut your door, and have all your dollars spread on the table in the middle of the room. When they, call you make a noise with them by sweeping . them into your bag again The bait took completely. The wife had peeped through the key-hole, and saw the dollars spread out on the table, and' told it to her husband. When the old man Caine down, they insisted on his sitting at the table with them,and treated him with uncommon civility. The old man related to his friend what he had done, who aave hint directions what to do if his son asked him for the money After a few days the son discovered the old man busily engaged in counting out his money, and at the nest meal time asked him what money it was he had been counting. 'Only some money I have received for the discharge of one of the bonds I had standing out. I expect more in a few days, and I fear I shall be obliged to take Mr. N.'s farm, upon which I have a mortgage, as lie is not able to raise the money, and if the farm is sold it will not fetch as much as will discharge the 9. 4 ; a. ni . 5, :II p. IP I,3ortgitze." After a few days the son told his father he intended to build a house on the farm, if he would let him hare that money. "Yes,ehild all I have is coining to you. I intend giving you the bonds and mort. gaffes I have but thou I think it - will be the best to have it put r,ll together in a new deed of gift. 1 will get neighbor L. to call here and draw a new one." Accordingly his friend and cou-in,w•ho had devised the scheme, came to the house, and the son gave the father the deed, that another might be drawn off it. \Voen the old man had got the instru ment into his hands, in the presence of his friend be broke off the seal, and com mitted the writing to the fire, saying : Burn cursed instrument of my folly and misery I And you, my dutiful chil dren, as this estate is all my own again, must remove immediately unless you will be content to be my tenants. I have learned,by sad experience, that it is best for the parent to hold the loaf under his own arm. That one fattier can better maintain ten children than ten children can a father. Corner:jug - a •"Spar/c:'• OR THE GIRL WHO HELD THE BABY. ' Thu Weekly Picayune. tells the follow ing excellent joke : Some teu days o: a fortnight since, a couple of gay young men happened in at a ball given at a public room, where the dancers were not exactly of the " upper ten," but were still very respectable, worthy people.— Pre:,ently one of our heroes, a sharp, merry, quizzical fellow, espied in a re tired seat, a pretty,elegaut looking young lady, who he was certain trout her ap pearance, was not of the class of house maids, nurses, and &e., then whirling around him in a waltz. An introduction was speedily effected, [WHOLE NUMBER 1,9028• • and our young friend, as he expressed it, c:spread himself, in order to lay the lady out cold." He has never been very far out of the city; but with his usual impn deuce, glibness of the tongue, and pic turesqueness of expression, he gave his partner a minute and glowing description of his travels in foreign lands,from Kam schatka to Patagonia, dashing through Europe, glancing at Asia Minor,dropping in at Liberia, and sneezing at California, with adventures with Bedouins, scalp hunts with Pawnees, confabs with. the Czar, soirees with the sultan, and card parties with Louis Napoleon- The ex tensive acquaintance the young man possessed,with great men of all countries, was truly astonisl'ing; and he told so many anecdotes of the free and easy inter course with him—as yet a youth whose chin mourns a beard—that even he him self become a little alarmed at his own boldness, and "drew up his horses." The young lady had listened attentive ly, smiled amiably, and appeared to be indeed a very well informed person.— Our hero was already half head over-heels in love, but what bothered him was that he did not know who his fair companion was, her name, address, or position. He hemmed and hawed for a long while,after getting through with his travels and sto- ries, and thou said insinuatingly : "Do you know,Miss,that when I came into the room, I took you for 'l)liss Clifton of Prytania street ?" "Indeed ?" "Ycs. I never saw such a striking resemblance." (Miss Clifton, of Prytania street, was a fictitious personage.) "Do you know Miss Clifton ?" "Of Prytania street r cc iresyy (c N o '7 "Oh !'' Another pause—slightly awkward.— Our friend approached still nearer the ‘•pumping" operation. Had Miss been at the Verandah soiree-? No,she hadn't. The last ball at the St. Louis was delight- Jul. So she had heard, Was it possible that Miss bad not been there ? No she hadn't. But the opera, the delightful opera ! Hadn't been there either. Was it possible. Was the distance too great to her hotel ? She didn't lire at a hotel. It was so much pleasanter to have a pri. rate house of one's own. She had no private house. Ah ! Miss prefers fur nished rooms. She couldn't bear them! Another pause—more awkward than ever. Our friend was stumped, but he looked perfectly at his case,and remained in a graceful attitude, smiling pleasantly at the toes of his patent leather pumps. Imagine his discomfiture when sudden ly the mysterious young lady, looked up to his face with a cunning smile, said: I know you I" Our hero:tau:illy blushed. He thought he was caught. The foreign travels would do his business for ever and ever, IMIIII "You know me ! how strange! When did I have the pleasure of making your tectuaintance ".'' "Oh, some two weeks ago." "Two weeks? Strange, I don't re limber ever to- have met you." "Do you remember a christening that ook place ?" c• 011, yes—at Mrs. E----'s. Was you there ?" "Yes. I held the flab)/ !" If ever a young lady was thoroughly analyzed at a glance,that . young lady was, for just about a secoud after "I held the baby" was uttered. "-Well, really—l am much to blame— I can't forgive myself—but I can't pos sibly recollect a feature of your face." "Oh, you did not look at me." '.No ?" "Nor speak to me, either." " Don't tell me ! And yet you held the baby !" "Nobody else did, I can assure you." "I do not know Low to make apology for my rudeness. Pray forget it, and the next time you hold a baby,l'll speak to you if I die for it." "Will you ?" "'Pon honor L" " And tell me more of your travels ?" " Ye-ye yes:" "Well now, if you will be on Lafayette Square to-morrow afternoon, at 5 o'clock you'll sec me there." " Um ! pretty cool that at a first acquaintance," thought our hero. "Do you often go on Lafayette Square .7" "Every afternoon—with the baby." "Oh, with a baby !" "Of course. I ant the nurse!" Since the above eventful night, our young friend from a round, ruddy-faced individual, has become wan, pale and. thin-visaged. Ile never smiles, and you have only to say "baby" to him to send. him instantly in search of some one around the corner.
