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.

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.
