Few ro better known to the opulent business men of the city and less known to tho public at large than Theodore V. Bmalley. Mr. Smalley's occupation is that of a broker, a title borne by scoros of wealthy and worthy citizens, resi dents of the city, and not sufficient in itself to distinguish its bearer's avooa tion in life as in any way remarkable. But the nature of the brokerage business that Mr. Smolley has transacted for over the last twenty years Is unique. No one else in this city is in tho same senso a broker. One or two others, perhaps, are in How York, which city, however, Mr, Sinalley includes to n certnin extent in hla Held of operations. He is a money broker, is Sir. Smalloy, To buying and selling money of the low est denomination hedevutos himself with singleness of purjwwe. Promising build ing lots are no temptation to him. He is Indifferent to rises nnd falls in railway shares, and as innocent in puts and calls as ft frolicsome kid of drawing room eti quette. Nay, it is even rumored that he cares not for even the elysinm delights Gof the owanus canal. Mr. Sinalley buys pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, balf dollars and dollars from churches, banks and newspaper of fices and places of amusement, and sells to big stores, factories, pawn offices, banks and large business houses. A profit of 1 per cent, in the dollar on pennies satisfies htm, as will seventy-five cents profit on $1 ,000iu silver. Not often, he says, does he get more. It is in the magnitude of his transactions and not on the percentage that he finds profit. In a year he handles over 3,000,000. Ho Is punctuality personified.and many are the large stores in which tho clerks time the hour by his daily arrival, laden with strong bags with pennies and silver. "Formerly," said "Mr. Sinalley, with a sigh, to the writer, "the profits were much greater. That was when trade dollars were In vogue, but now the bus!- ness is down very flue and it is not on account of competition. "Are you not afraid of being robbed?" "I was robbed once, but I don't think I will be again. Around the banks rob bing is almost impossible. There is no more secure place that I know of. Officer Kelly Is n vigilant officer. He has been a long time on his beat and knows stran gers at Bight and the character and pur pose of every loiterer," It was on the 7th of March, 1891, that the sole robbery of which Sir. Smolley was the victim occurred, lie had. pur chased early in' the forenoon, and about a quarter of an hour previous to tho rob bery, several hundred dollars' worth of small monoy at The Eagle office, and had driven to St. Anne's churoh, on Front street, near Gold, while waiting a few moments in the pastoral residence for the Rov. Father McMeel a strange man took advantage of his absenco, jumped into tho wagon, and, driviug off at a furious gallop, escaped pursuit. The robbery created n sensation at the t ime on account of the audacious manner In which it was effected. W. II.

About the timo of the break ing out of the oil excitement on Oil creek he landed at Castle Garden with no more of this world's goods than thousands of other immigrants.

TYPEWRITING AND LITERATURE. Advice for Those Who "(Villi to Make a Uood Impresalnn on Kdltors 'No, I cannot use the typewriter," re marked a literary man the other day, nor can 1 dictate with any satisfaction. And thore are a good many other people in the same boat with me. I heard one well known writer say not long ago that, while he could get along well enough with Ids correspoudenoe on the type writer, he could do nothing at all in the way of literary work. As for dicta- tlon, it was simply an impossibility for ldm. He had tried it repeatedly, but had never been able to succeed. It was the more singular in his case because he was formerly a publio speaker ftud was in the habit of speaking without ft man uscript; and he is noted as a talker, be ing fluent, ready and rapid. He even sard that he could not dictate ft correc tion in typewritten copy. The only sat isfactory thing for him to do was to tako the copy himsplf andwritointhechango. "Then there is ! he must bo malt ing something like $300 n week from his literary work In all directions. One would think that ho would bo almost compelled to employ a stenographer, but I understand he does all his work with his own hand. I have heard of a very prolific editor who was induced by his friends to lighten his laborB by employing a sten ographer and typewriter. In his caso it worked very curiously. He had no trouble about dictating, but he found that by this means ho was enabled to do a great deal more work than ho had done previously that is, ft great deal moro writing und so, instead of diminishing his labors, he really increased them. In my own case I can dictate a letter fairly well, and I could do a piece of journalistic work in that way or by typo- writing it; but anything that Is to have tho literary touch must be carefully worked out with the pen. And I do not believe that it is simply a matter of prac tice; though to bo suro it is possible that it may be. That is, if one wore trained from n child to use the type writer instead of the pen or pencil, the art of composition might come naturally to him when fingering the keyB. JJut nreatly doubt whether it can be learned late in life. Take the -case of , I feel confident that tho notable decadence of his style in recent years, which is un mistakably very marked, is the result of hia use of the typewriter. Formerly he was most fastidious in his style, but now he is slovenly and careless. The chango is really wonderful to one who has read him closely for years, as I have. So I am far from thinking tho type writer an unmixed blessing. At tho same time i uelleve that every manu script offered for publication ought to bo typewritten. I believe that would-be authors would find it to their advantage to go to the small expense which tho copying of their efforts by the typewriter would entail. Editors, I find, are much more willing to examine such manu scripts than those which are written in scrawling, crabbed and uneven hands, even if there be some Individuality about these. It is not individuality that the average editor is looking for, It is some thing fresh and striking and original, and he is loath to take the trouble to de cipher bad chirography on the bare chance of finding something worth his while, bo my advice to tho young men and young women who add so much to tho government's liostal receipts year after year is to have their productions typewritten. They will save postage, of course, as ft typewritten manuscript is less bulk' than one done by hand. And in case of several rejections and reat- tempts they may save in postage the cost of the typewriting." -New York Trib une. ' Secret of lining CliuriutiiK to Others. The world today is filled with half morbid young people wishing thoy only knew how to make themselves moro in teresting and attractive to others. It is not ft desire to be blamed, but one to be encouroged. The only trouble is that they get their attention concentrated on themselves, and the more they think of themselves tho less do peoplo want to look at the object they propose shall be attractive. No one ever fails to be de lighted with a person who, having spent several summers in some enchanting spot iu the mountains, takes in hand him, n. stranger there, and leads him to tho most poetic cascades or the sublimest points of outlook the wholo region offers, Here, then, lies the secret of proving charming to others. It is by serving as guide and interpreter to something more inspiring than would bo either of the two left to himself, and so bringing on an experience in which each loses his mere individual life to find it iu a fuller uni versal life.

" MILLIONS OF DOLLARS THAT HAVE NEVER BEEN-REDEEMED. Xfnny Small Note Are Still Treasured ni Curlnsllle. -A Utile Comes In Ktery Year lion Ciniiiterfelln An Stamped. Flirts About Scrip. "8ay, mister, are these any good?" in- mired a timid looking youngster of Doorkeeper Brady at the sub-treasury the other day an he hauled out ft half dozen piece of ragged, dirty paper. A close inspection showed that they were pieces of fractional currency, or Bhitinleeterx," such as played so im portant ft part as n circulating medium before the resumption of specio pay ment. The young man was directed to tho email change room, where he again asked the name question of R. C. Huff, who is in charge of that department. Mr. Haft took the Milled nnd crumpled bits of iwiper in hie hands, smoothed thein out, and with the hasty touch of nn expert singled out one of the pieces and turned around to ft block of wood behind him that looked like a butcher's chopping block. Ho laid the selected piece of paper on the block and gave It ft whack with a steel instrument; then, turning to the young man, he said: "These five are good, but Hint one is counterfeit." As he stake he handed back the bad token, nnd ncroee the face was the word counterfeit," cut clean and clear. The steel instrument with which he had stmck the paper was a sharp stencil die that cut the tell tale worn so clearly that the bit of currency never would be enrrent again, and any fool could see that it was worthies. Do yon want these redemedr" con tinued Mr. Halt, as he jioiiited to the five grimy eliiwun the counter. Yes, sir, if you please," stammered the youth, as he eyed with pained sur prise the mutilated piece returned to him. Mr. Haff put two bright Mirer dol lars nnd n silver quarter on the counter, which tlie) boy picked up in a hurry, as though he wcro finding them in the street. IXJTB OP MONEY UMsT. Do you get much of that old frac tional currency nowt" somebody said to Mr. Hoft as tho hoy went opt. No," he replied: "we get verj little now not more than $8,500 a year. The amount coming iu for redemption is growing less and lees every year. It used to come in bore by the bushel basketful. But for many years now we only receive it in driblets. Wo seldom get as much at it time ns that young man just brought in." "But it has not all been redeemed, haa itV" No, indeed; and, what is more, a very lartto amount will never lie redeemed. There is now outstanding in old frac tional something like $15,000,000. And of that it is estimated that not more thou 18,000,000 to $5,000,000 will ever come in. "But where is the rest nnd why will it not come in for redemptionr "A great deal of it has been worn out by the wear and tear of twenty odd years. "Any quantity of It has been binned up in the fires that have occurred sinco the time it was issued, and iu numerous other ways it has been lost or destroyed. Then there are some peoplo who hold all thoy can get to use in send ing small mhounts by mail, finding it handy. Then, too, the old currency is now so scarce that people keep the occa sioual pieces, that come to hand as curl osities or pocket pieces. A great many coin collectors have crisp, Uni irculated specimens of it m their collections. know ono wealthy gentleman in the city who carries in'his pocketbook, wrapped up with the greatest care, four clean, bright specimens a fifty, a twenty-five, a ton and a five cent piece.

I do not believe you could buy them from him to day for $1,000 apiece. He calls them his reserve capital, and if he ever loses u million or more, as he is now reported to be worth, he will havo his ninety cents reserve to raij back on." llETKCTKfa COUNTEltFKITB. A good deal of tho fractional currency that is brought to the sub-treasury foi redemption turns out to be counterfeit, and the moment it comes into that place, no matter from whose hands it comes, it is hurried to a block and stamped "court teifeit" with the stencil cutting die. They ask no permission, but just go and do it. The Biiuie rule is followed, too, in the rotunda where the bills of larger de- nominutiou come m. Sometimes men get Very angry when their bills are bund ed back to them mutilated iu such manner that they cannot lie used. Not long ago the South Ferry com pany sent up to the sub-treasury a bun- din of the fractional currency represent ing about KK). It had been discovered back of it partition in the old ferry house, where it had been either stowed away or misplaced, and was found when the old building was torn down to make room for tho new structure. Mr. Haff shuttled through the pile and not only pronounced it all counterfeit but discovered that some of it had been brought to the sub-treasury at least twenty years ago, as the marks of the old stamps used as long ngo as that to mark counterfeit paper money were still plainly visible on tliem. Each piece was subjected to the cutting process, and wil) probably not be presented again for re demption. All the fractional paper currency that la redeemed at the sub-treasury is sent to the treasury at Washington, where it is placed fii the crematory and burned up, and all that is left of it Js a sort of lag, a single pound of which tuay repre sent a million.

After engaging room at a Cinousbur s hotel I saun tered around the old college buildings waiting for the rest of tho boys of the class of '50 to turn up. The first one to put in an appearance had an empty coat sleovo. While a Confederate shell had taken my leg, a Union ball liad torn nway his arm, I invited him up to my room, and he was with me that night. I noticed tliat he had no difficulty at all in arranging his clothing and in doing pretty nearly everything else that a man with two arms nnus necessary to uo. l said to him that tho lose of nn arm did not seem to incommode him. 'Well, do you know, Jim,' he replied, 'that since I lost my other arm find find that every thing I want to do can bo done with one arm instead of two, I often wonder what reason tho good Lord had for making a man with two arms.'
