LITERARY AND ART ITEMS. Bob Pullingcr’s Hose-Colored Spectre- , clew. . . I. ' ; Christmas Eve, 18—, was, in point- of 1 weather, a miserable day. A cold, drenching j rain, with occasional intervals of sleet, was ; falling, while every now and then the wind ; blew in fierce, pitiless gusts, So that feeble and elderly persons, encountering Boreas in this unexpected manner at street corners, were nearly taken off their legs by his rude ness. In-doors, provided there were plenty of coals on the fire, and plenty of food in the larder, the weather was pleasant enough. : But, unfortunately, everybody in this great ; city was not so happily situated. The Bal linger family, for example, who rented the front and back attics at Nunt- ; ber Eight, Warner slreet, Blackfriars Bond, could have borne a good i many more coals oh the fire without fear of being over-roasted. There was only a tiny ; little bit of red heat in ohe corner of the ; small grate, to which Mrs. Pullinger added fuel occasionally, with such a stern eye for economy, that she might have put it on with a tablespoon. Mothers are apt to be selfish creatures; so Mrs. Pullinger .sat by the win-' ! dow, declaring stoutly that it. wasn’t at all , cold, and that she wanted all the light she.i could get. that dismal day to mend her bus- j band's coat. If, however, you had cross questioned Lizzie, the eldest daughter, a demure, anxious-faced little creature of eight, she would have to)d_ you that mother sat at the window on purpose that the little ones might snuggle over the fire. And the little ones, three in number, a girl and two boys, were snuggling over the lire, stretching out their mites ol' hands, and making believe that the heat was very intense; making believe, also, that au old wooden horse, who, though lie had lost his head and both forelegs, was still a prime family favorite —making believe that this venerable nag was suffering exceedingly from the i'umac'e-like. character of the heat to which he was subjected, and that from this cause he had contracted sundry diseases, be yond the reach of veterinary skill. It might be inferred, from the glib way in which the children prattled stable-talk, and also from a colored print of the celebrated trotting-horse Gondolier, which hung over the mantel-piecop that their father earned his living among horses, and the infer ence would be correct; but of this we will say more hereafter, and Tather observe for the present that the room was scrupulously clean, and that there were various little ornaments on the walls and on the mantel-piece betoken- . ing a home-loving husband and wife. The furniture, however, was painfully scanty, for the chest of drawers, and several of the clothes which they contained, had been con fided to the guardianship of a commercial philanthropist in the Blackfriars Road—with three golden balls over his doorway—until better times came round. And now let us listen to Mrs. Pullinger, a pretty, dark-liaired little woman of six-and-twenty, with a pale thin face. She looks up from her work with a sad smile, and says gently,— “It’s no use, Lizzie, scouring out the big saucepan; we shall have no pudding this Christmas.” “It may as well be clean as dirty,” answers the little housewife, cheerfully, as she con tinues her polishing. But these few words had attracted the attention of the little ones, who looked up with large round eyes of disappointed won derment. “No. pudding?” cried little Alice. “No puddin’?” whimpered Bob,dropping a tear on the wooden horse’s ragged mane. Even baby, twenty months old, and the familypeLsfcammered out' regretfully, as if< recalling the remembrance of many previous Christmas festivities, “Me want puddeny, me muss have puddeny." “Hush, children,” exclaimed Lizzie with severity, holding up an authoritative finger; “you ought to be thankful that theieklwo loaveß of bread in the cupboard, and a pot of nice dripping.” Then, turning to her mother, she said, “I hear father’s step on the stairs." In a lew moments Mr. Pullinger made his appearance, a short, bow-legged man, with a . broad, good-humored face, and a pair of twinkling brown eyes. He took from his shoulders a corn-sack, which he wore by way oi overcoat, and hung it on the bannis ters to dry. ■ t , “Dear Bob, how wet you are!” said his wife, anxiously. . “Well, it is rayther dampish,” answered Ajr. Pullinger, calmly, as he shook himself the stairhead, like a Newfoundland d,o“- “but I ain't a going to, stop at home, sS It don’t matter. How about to-morrow's din ner, Polly?” s \ * “That depends upon you, Bob. ’ “Because Ido like a bit of summat nice, at Christmas,” pursued Mr. Pullinger, re flectively. -Hero he opened the cupboard -and peered, at its contents. “We don’t show well in the provision line, do we, Polly?” . The wife replied by a sigh.. “And I have n’t brought a half-penny home with me. All this blessed,day,l’ve only had three fares, and one of them was a sixpenny touch. How folks can reconcile it to their consciences to offer a man a sixpence' for seventeen hundred yards of carriage airing on a day like this, I don’t know. The chaps on the rank laugh at me, and say I’m a soft to take it; blit I can’t bully, and I can’t go agin-the Act of Parliament. Ho hereil am, .eighteen pence in debt for cab hire to , Mr. wilkiußQD. But don’t ye get down hearted, Polly; I shall'ask master to let me have‘another horse, ‘and take a night-job. We’re sure to have a fine night arter this rain”, and if 1 don’t pick up summat good before morning I’m a Dutchman.” “I hope you’ve had some dinner tp-duv. Bob?" asked Mm Pullinger. ■ “Well, no, I haven’t.” replied her husband, cheerily. “That bread in the cupboard smelt so savory, that I thought I wouldn’t spile my appetiie by getting any commonplace grub at a cook-shop. So, Lizzie, just cut me a hunch off the loaf, and butter it well,—l can’t do without butter,”—he said this with a jocose wink,—“then I'll be off to the yard and hear what Mr. Wilkinson has to say.” ■So Mr. Pullinger walked up and down the attic, beating his arms on his chest to keep* himself warm, and each time that he passed the table he took a bite of his bread%nd drip ping. He managed to make everybody laugh, even his pale-faced wife, for he pretended that every mouthful was some new. and unex pected delicacy. “What’s this? partridge? Why, Lizzie, I’m surprised at yer! I thought partridges was five shillings a brace. O, venison, is it? I like venison, though well-kept mutton’s pretty near as tasty. And a roley-poiey pud ding to finish up with! If there is a pudding I like, Pollv, it’s roley-poiey.” Then, taking a draught of cold, milkless tea, he said, smacking his lips, “Here’s another surprise 1 didn’t bargain for. Sparkling champagne, —and in tumblers, too! Polly, I’m afraid you're getting extra vagant.” ‘ Aid having thus seasoned his homely re pafdjpMr. Pullinger, ,: ’put oir his battered old billy-cock biit, threw his corn-sack over liis shoulders, and descended the stairs, whist ling. A couple of hours later Mr. Pullinger came home again. His broad face looked fully two inches longer than when he went out, and as he hung his hat on its accustomed peg, a deep sigh escaped from his lips. Lizzie, a keenly-observant child, looked hard into her father's face, and noticed that, in spite of his apparent melancholy, there was a sort of so lemn wink in the corner of liis left eye. So she exclaimed hastily,— “Mother, don tbe frightened, father's only pretending. - If he’d got bad news to tell, he'd come up whistling and singing. I know lie's got good news, and that’s why he makes believe io be miserable.. I know you’re only pretending, ain’t ye, father?” added the. little woman, going up to him, and bestowing a demure kiss on bis weather-beaten cheek. “What do you know about it, you young monkey ?” answered Mr. Pullinger, with a roughness which did not in the least appear to disconcert his eider daughter. “How's a man likely to be anything- but melancholy when he finds such a thing as this in his pocket, and orf-a Christmas Eve, too?” With these words, and a humorous glauce at Lizzie, he rang down a sovereign on the table. “My dear Bob,” exclaimed Mrs. Pullinger, with a flush of pleasure on her pale cheek, “how came you by such luck ? ” “Found it in the straw at the bottom of the cab, did n’t yer ? ” asked Lizzie, sharply. “No, I did n’t, Miss Pert, and p’ra'ps its as well 1 did n't, for I should have been tempted to keep it without seeking for' the owner, and that would n’t be right, ye know. No, I borrowed it.” - “Who of? asked his wife. ('“Why, of Mr, Wilkinson. I went and' asked him for night-work, telling him how pushed 1 was just now. He hummed and hawed a hit, and then be said, ‘Can you drive a hansom, Pullinger?’ I answered, respect fully, T should rayther think I can, sir; I’ve drove everything in my time, from a donkey up'ards.’ •Well,’ he said, ‘Ned Tomlinson’s bad with the rheumatics. It’s his bay mare. Blie’s a flier, but she’s a kicker.’ ” “O Bob!” cried Mrs. Pullinger, “I hope she won’t kick you.” “So do I,” answered her husband, gravely. “But she’s more likely to kick my fare than me. Howsomdever, if she’s used fairly, I lay a penny she don’t kick neither. I’m to start to-morrow 1 morning, and Wilkinson, though we call him a nipper, has actually let me have a pound in advance. ‘You ain’t a drunkard, Pullinger, and you ain’t a thief, as I knows on,’ says the old man in his queer granting way, ‘sol’ll let ye have it.’ 1 told him I was much obliged to him lor his good opinion, and for the money. So now, Polly, clap on your bonnet and shawl, and let’s go aj»d buy a bit of beef and ’taters, and the rea sons and currants,'and orange-peel for the pudding.” “Hooroar for the pudding,” shouted Bob Junior. Whereupon Lizzy, with ma tronly severity, boxed her brother’s ears, and then, being reproved—by* her mother for spoiling the general hilarity, kissed away the tears which her chastisement had called forth. . “I can’t fancy you driving a hansom, father,” observed Lizzie, reflectively. “Why not, my deal?” “You don’t 6eem smart enough.” “Alluding to dress, Lizzie?” “Partly, father.”' ■ “Well, there you’re right. A hansom cabman ought to look almost like a gentle man. I wish I hadn’t been forced to put away my top'-coat. That corn-sack is as good as a water-proof, but it don’t look fashionable. I’ll tell you what, Lizzie, I’ll step round to Ned Tomlinson’s, and ask him to lend me his hat and coat. He can’t want ’em while he’s in bed with the rheumatics, and I’ll offer him a shilling a day lor the use of ’em. • But what else shave you-got to say//Lizzie, against my-driv ing a hansom?” “You seem to me, father, too humble for a hansom,’.’ answered the premature little wo man. “I should say you was bom for a four wheeler.” ' Mr. Pullinger burst into a laugh. “I say, Polly, he shouted to his wife, who was put ting on her. bonnet in the bedroom, “what d’ye think this chit Lizzie’s been a saying of me? She tells me I’m only fit to drive a growler,—says that of me, who was a gen tleman’s coachman for years afore I married. I’ll drive past the window to-morrow, Lizzie, o’ purpose to let you see yer despised parent on Ned Tomlinson’s.trap.” A serious discussion took place among the family as to the proper hour for the Christ mas dinner. As Mr'.’ Pullinger vwould be engaged all day with his hansom, his wife proposed that they should dine in the evening and call it supper. Mr. Puliinger replied that it he dined late he should prefer calliug: it dinner, as a hansom-driver could not be too fushionable in his habits; but- advised an ear lier hour on the children’s account. “Them poor little things,” he observed, “can’t wait till eight o’clock. It’ll tantalize them out of then seven senses to hear the pudding bub bling away for so many hours.’’ Mr. Puliinger’s plan was followed, and the dinner was pronounced a success. .It is true that the pudding was hardly so big as the children would have liked, and. th&t Bob cast greedy glances the slice put asyay for father on the top of the shelf of the cupboard, arguing nr his own mind that it was an un lairly large deduction from the general stock; sfill he was obliged to allow that he had eaten a Sumptuous repast. And shortly after dinner,: Jtjst as industrious little Lizzie had tucked up her sleeves, and begun to wash the plates, she heard the rattle of wheels, and a peculiar whistle outside, in the street. Ah this wkistlewas a signal agreed upon between herself her father, she instantly threw up the sash, and summoned the reht of the family to the window to see father drive by. “Don’t father look nice in Ned Tomlinson’s hat and coat?” she exclaimed. “He don’t seem like himself." ' THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN.—PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 7,1867. Mr. Pullinger, as ho passetL waved a grace ful salute to his family, and pointed to me in side of his vehicle, as much as to say, “Y ou see what sort of a fare I’ve got” ■ > \ The fare consisted of two vulgarly-dressed young men, with dandified canes iiixtheir hands, and big cigars in their mouths: holi day customers evidently, to whom a hansom ride was an unusual luxury. “The mare seems quiet,” observed Mrs. Pullinger, as the vehicle turned into the Black friars Road. “Yes; and father’s so care ui,” answered Lizzie. Five minutes afterwards, Lizzie and her mother were again attracted to the window— not by preconcerted signal, but by the sound of loud voices,, and footsteps running in the street below. Neighbors were standing at their doors, or leaning out of window, gaz ing eagerly towards the main road. Airs. Pullinger ran down stairs, anti asked a lad who was lounging by the street door if he knew what was the,matter. “Only a runaway,” he answered, coolly. “’Ansom made a holt and went off flying.” On hearing these ominous words the anx "10118 wife, regardless of shawl or bonnet, darted off, and ran into the main thoroughfare, at the comer of which she paused for a moment, and stood with a white, eager facq. with her hand, and gazing of vehicles which filled the roadway. “Can you tell me which way the cab went which rah away?” she asked of a tradesman who Bto'od at the door. “Towards the Obelisk,” he answered, briskly. “I saw the whole affair. The pas sengers were behaving shamefully. Actually poking the horse with their sticks.” At these words Mrs. Pullinger became still paler. “I’m afraid it must be his cab,” she mur mured feebly. “Whose cab?” demanded, the tradesman. “My She uttered this monosyllable, then stag gered against the door-post, and sank down in a fainting fit. As he raised her from the ground, the tradesman perceived the reason of her sudden swoon. A dense crowd was,coming up the street, in the midst of which,'’‘borne aloft on policemen’s shoulders, appeared a bleeding, disfigured body, with the arms hanging helplessly at its sides. One day, about three weeks later, poor Pullinger was lying on a trestle-bed in a ward of a London hospital. A.surgeon was stand ing over him. •‘Well, Pullinger, you're doing capitally. Your tongue's the right color, your pulse is good, your skin moist, and cool,” said the surgeon. “Three weeks ago I did not think we should bring you through. What do you say to a chop for dinner?” “Too good for me, doctor,” answered the patient, with a slight twinkle in his eye. “If you feed me too well while-I ! m laying here doing nothing, I shall get mischievous.- Can’t I make the chop over to the missis? she must want it more than I do.” “I'm afraid not, ” returned the kindly house surgeon® .“it’s against the rules. Mrs. Pullin ger hasn’t had her ribs broken or her bruin concussed. Besides she has met with good friends. Here she comes, and one of ber friends with her.” “Why, that’s Air. Jennings, the tea grocer in the Blackfriars Road!” muttered the patient, as he stretched out a thin hand, and Smiled a welcome on his wife. Yes,-it was Air. Jennings,-the tradesman to whom Mrs. Pullinger hod addressed her self when she fell down fainting at the terrible spectacle of her husband’s apparently lifeless body. Air. Jennings recognized her as an occasional customer, and being a kind-hearted man, made further inquiries about her, inte rested several other persons in the case, and, ip fact, became a substantial friend to the family during her husband’s long and danger ous illness. ' 'This was the first occasion on which the house-surgeon had allowed Air. Pullinger to talk freely, so that he had a great many ques tions to ask. He was rejoiced to hear that the mare had escaped unhurt. “There wasn’t a scratch upon her,” replied Mr. Jennings. “And the cab?” “Ah. the cab was a good deal knocked about; near wheel smashed to atoms.” “What did Mr. AVilkinson say?” “He went on dreadful,” replied Mrs. Pul linger, “rill this good gentleman explained to him how it happened.” “Yes,” inteiTupted Mr. Jennings, “I was an eye witness of the wholer affair? Those young men inside behaved shamefully. They deserved to bp hurt instead of you, and they were n’t hurt a bib!’ “I suppose Ned Tomlinson’s coat—” began Mr. Pullinger, hesitatingly. “Tom all to tatters,” answered the worthy grocer; “and a thief ran away with his hat.” “Poor Ned!” observed the patient. “Here I’ve been laying snug and warm in bed all this bitter weather, and Ned "without a top coat: such a beauty, too,with a welvet collar. The very fust money I earn—” “Dont fret yourself, dear Bob. ” exclaimed his wife; “you don’t know what a kind friend Mr. Jennings has been. He bought Tomlinson a new coat and hat.” “Airs. Pullinger, you’ll -make me blush,” said the grocer, shading bis face with his handkerchief, and winking pleasantly at the patient. At this moment, a tall, thin, elderly gentleman, with a pair of keen eyes, and a sharply-cut, decisive-looking mouth, entered the ward. The nurses who were present rose and courtesied respectfully. He shook the house-surgeon cordially by the hand, and after a few words at the bedside of several of the patients, drew new Mr. Pullinger. “You don’t know me?” he said rather brusquely, fixing his searching glance on the prostrate cabman. “Can’t say I do, sir,” replied Air. Pnliinger, as he feebly endeavored to salute his ques tioner by touching an imaginary hat. “But I know you, Pullinger,’’ said the new comer,—“don’t I, Alarshall?”—to the house surgeon. ’‘You’re Rje man who, when you were delirious, used toJjragfio 01-your coach manship.” •' i*' - * } hrggged, sir,” said Mr. Pullinger, deferentially. ‘ “Indeed, sir, he’s not given to boasting,” interposed Airs. Pullinger; “when he’s him self he’s the humblest creature— 1 •„''Butnuda’ B up for it, ma’am, when he’s iff, said the visitor. “Why, he told me that lie (1 been Accustomed to drive a four-in-liAud up and down the Strand every day for the last thirty years.” sir,” cried the cabman; “that was ail fudge. I never did nothing of the sort.” “He also told me he had lived for -six years as coachman to Air. Danvers, of Totten ham.:. “That’s true, sir,” exclaimed Air. Pullin ger. “How Came you to leave him, and take to cab-driving?” “Well, sir, Mr. Danvers was a determined old baclieloi, and he couldn’t ahear my getting married; so I leit, and put my savings into a cab. I was unlucky with my horses; thefirßt I had went dead lame, and the next— Well sir, I won’t trouble you with a long story, but I was sold up, and had to go to work for a cabmaster.” “That’]] do,” said the visitor, somewhat abruptly; “you’ve talked enough for to-day. Good morning,'’ . v. • ~ Poor Pullinger felt almost sorry when tho day came for leaving the hospital. He' was delighted to see his wife and children in his own home again; but he could not help thinking what a poor,’shabby, confined little place his attic seemed after the hospital ward. But be kept all his discontented thoughts tp himself; and though he felt weak and giddy, assumed an air of jovial indifference to trouble and anxiety. AVhen Lizzie cross examined him about his broken bones, he protested they were stronger thau they had ever been. After a day or two’s rest, it be came necessary to go to work again, and he was all tho more ready to do this, because he could not endufe to think that his wife and children should be dependent on charity for a moment after be was able to earn a living. He resolved, therefore, to visit Air. Wilkin son at the yard, and was just furbishing up his old billy-cock hat with this cud in view, when a brisk stop was heard ascending the stairs. The door opened, and in came the keen eyed, sharp-spoken hospital visitor. “D’ye know who I am now, Pullinger?” he demanded. “Yes, sir. I’ve heard tell you're Doctor Alalden,-tlie greaty-” »-.• ... .. Y •' “Never mind'’my greatness. What aye think I’ve toiled up your staircase for?” “I can’t say, sir.” “Because my coachman got drunk yester day, and I want you to take his place.” “Me, sir!” exclaimed Air. Pullinger, with his mouth open. “Yes, you. I know you can drive,—you told me so when you were ill. Besides, I’ve seen Air. Danvers. He gives you' a good character, marriage excepted. Now, I don’t object to marriage. There's a lodge at my house in Berkshire, where your family can live,' and it will be your own fault if we part soon.” A good deal of questioning followed, end ing in a regular engagement. At length Dr. Alaldeu departed, leaving .Air. Pullinger mechanically stroking his old hal, as if in a reverie. “Can you believe this, Polly ? ” asked. Pul linger, alter a long silence. “Indeed I can, dear Bob,” answered bis wife, who was shedding tears of joy; “and I’m sure you'll do the doctor justice.” “I've made believe so often that things was different from wiiat theyreally was, just as if I was a looking at everything through a pair of rose-colored spectacles, to put-a bit of heart into you and Lizzie, that this luck, now it’s come, don't seem real. Tell me, Lizzie, wits there a gentleman by the ntime of Alaldeu up here just now offering me a coachman's place, or was it only- my make up?'’ “AVliat a silly old father it is,” said Lizzie, as she kissed him fondly. “Why, of course, it's all true. AVc shall all. be so well off.” ■ “Pudding every day,” exclaimed Boh Ju nior, and then nimbly darted out of the reach of his sister s vengeful hand. As for Air. Pullinger, he sat down, .and began to shed tears. “Don’t make fun of me, Polly,” he murmured; “it’s a little bit of hospital weakness., I can laugh at bad luck —it’s the best way to treat it; but good luck knocks me over. .1 thought I was bound to the cab-rank for the rest of my days, and here I am, once more a gentleman’s coach man. Them two young clerks did me a good turn when they poked Ned’s mare into a gallop. ” “A good turn,” cried Lizzie, indignantly; “I wish I had ’em here, the wretches. ’ “Don’t call ’em wretches, my dear,” answered her father, tranquilly; “they’ve been the means of introducing me to Doctor Alalden, and I’d willingly give ‘ ’em my first quarter’s wages for doing me that favor.” A Boat; Groan. [Translated for Every Saturday from Le Temps.> 1 met at Amiens a Picard, who had -fast returned from Paris. He said to me; “Sir, I reached ‘the capital’- Sunday evening. I had a letter of introduction to a tavern keeper. He gave me a cordial greeting, and ,proposed to me to share his cook’s bed, which, having no more aristocratic chum, I was obliged to accept; of a truth the cook did not inconvenience me. He went to bed at two o’clock, A. AL, and at four o'clock A. AI., he got up to go to the markets. But I did not see one oi the marvels which carried me to Paris. At the review I was behind the horse of a Alumcipal Guard, and the horse had no regard for decency. The crowd kept shoving, until for one moment I was between the horse's hind legs. I went every where to see the foreign sovereigns go by; but the Court coaches flew by in a cloud of dust and horsemen. There were, however, people who were delighted; they had stood four hours to see a dragoon’s helmet, and said to each other as th ey went home— “‘l am sure ’t was the Czar. I caught a glimpse of a red cordon.' “‘Nota bit of it; ’t was the King of Prussia.’ “ ‘Ye are both out; ’t was the military household of the Czar going to the Elysee to escort hiril.’ “Just at this moment a pastry-cook's ap prentice, who was sprawling on a limb, fell on my head- The crowd began to giggle, while I was attempting to persuade my smashed hat-to assume something like ‘ a decent form. The ’prentice made no excuse, but only said,— “‘Boss, I have flattened your stove-pipe. Will you take my cap in exchange?’ I thought proper to decline this exchange. Badly as my hat looked, it nevertheless was more in conformity with court etiquette than the pastry-cook apprentice’s cap. The blow given me by this fellow’s fall nearly put my shoulder out of joint. I wished, to take a hack. The driver looked at me, scratched his chin, and said in a familiar way to me: ‘Hacks, old horse, are not for your phiz. I am engaged by Count de Bismarck.’ How ever, 1 represented to the driver that I was wounded, and , out of humanity he agreed to take mo to my hotel for ten francs above the lawful rate. I must say this hack-driver is the only noble hearted man I met in the estimable class of drivers. All the others, when I tried to speak to them, would fly away like butterflies. I observed, too,, a carriage with in it goes on a walk at 'Paris, while an empty carriage goes on a gallop. One day I got into p, hack which was standing before a vintner’s. The driver caine up and swore he should not take me to the Exhibition. Fortunately a policeman interfered, and ordered him to drive me where I wished to go. But, taking advantage of my ignorance of Paris, he earned me to the Marche du Temple, and said as he halted: “Here is the Palace of the Exhibition, amuse yourself in it, old ’un.’ After I had walked about it for ten minutes, I clearly saw that collection of old clo’ could not represent the wonders of the Woiid’s industry. Instructed by experience, and guided by a passer whom I had asked to point out my way,l went towards the Champ de Mars. When we reached the Champs de Ely sees my volunteer companion proposed we should breakfast. He,declared that he •was host, and should give me a breakfast worthy of Paris. We breakfasted- like fighting-cocks. ■ The bill was -fifty-seven francs. Alter coffee was served my friend went out to get cigars. I waited an hour and a half for him, and then, as he did not make his appearance, I expressed my as tonishment to the waiter. . He grinned. ' ‘“Monsieur is from, the provinces?’ ho asked. “‘I am from Amiens.’ “ ‘That explains all. There are just now a great many Parisians; who breakfast' with provincial's; but when the bill is brought in, they have a pressing engagement somewhere else. ’ “I was obliged to pay the fifty-seven francs, or rather the three Napoleons, for I had to give three francs to the waiter, who received so inconsiderable a tip quite disdainfully. When I quitted the restaurant, I turned my nose towards the Exhibition (for I Still wisiied to see it),./md went to tho tram-road to gut into its omnibus. There was a great crowd waiting their turn. I was given a ticket, with, a number on it. Night began to fall when my ticket was called. I gave up'all hope of seeing the Exhibition that day. Since then, I have been prevented, sometimes by one incident, and some times by another; so that I know nothing whatever about the Egyptian palace, or the Chinese house, or the restaurants, except by the descriptions given by the newspapers, which I might have read quietly, coolly, and at ease, in the arbor of my garden. I need scarcely say, I was extremely, ambitious to he present at the state performance, given at the grand opera. I was informed by a public notice that no tickets would be delivered ex cept to people ,of high, aristocratic, rank. Nevertheless, I ingenuously went to the ticket-office, and asked for a parquet stall. 1 was asked,— ‘“Are you connected with an embassy?’ “ ‘No, 1 am not.’ • “ ‘Then you must be, at least, the King of Prussia’s body-servant.’ “ ‘No, I ain’t.' “ ‘Perhaps Count do Bismarck's foster brother.’ “ ‘Not a bit of it.' “ ‘Ypu are au adventurer, then; clear out from here, clear out from here!' “I withdrew,, mortified to death. At tho door of the opera, I was accosted by a man smelling very strongly of brandy. lie beek oned.mu to follow him. We entered a vint ner’s. “He said to me: ‘I have a parquet stall: but, to use it, requires discretion and tact, for all the'tickets for the state performance are personal. Hire a Turkish costume, and pass yourself otl as a secretary of t lie Turkish Em bassy. It would be a wise precaution if you blacken your face somewhat with a hurut cork. But, if the check-taker does s lein to suspect yoi’ir identity, you must prqgg-tid to fly in a toweling passion: and you must un sheathe your sword, bawling, “Aboustmoos! Cola mtdos! Abdul.Mejid Eunuch m pnieii ttitiasos!" Then he will let you go on.' ‘Tasked, ‘And pray 'how• much will this slifove-Tuesday three cost me ?'. “‘A thousand francs. There are only four tickets in the' market. These we got from gentlemen belonging to the most aristocratic 1 families, who prefer supping at the Moulin Rouge with houris to playing the part of supernumeraries in a theatre, where the lead ing parts will he tilled by emperors.’ ‘A thousand francs. Why that is twice as much as I give for my house in a year.’ i declined the oiler. The stall was sold to an American, who could not believe the ticket was good, 'twas so cheap. He-said: ‘l'll he teetotaliy squashed, if I could have got such a seat at New York for less than a thousand dollars in gold.’ I was not more fortunate at the other theatres. I succeed 'd in procuring a stall at the Varieties. When evening came, I found a man in possession of my seat The check-taker explained to me that a mistake had been made, and two tickets had inadvertently been issued. He politely offered to return my money at the theatre’s rates, lie paid me seven francs. It cost me thirty francs at a theatrical agency. At last, humbugged, jeered, swindled, jobbed, elbowed, trod on, after sleeping with a cook, and eating leav ings at restaurants, —and all to see the per formance behind the curtain, —I determined to quit Paris, and return homo. I shall re turn to Paris when* it holds fewer crowned heads.” Anecdote ot Thackeray, Mr. Theodore Martin, in his memoir of Professor Aytoun, relates a trick played upon Thackeray by Mr. Peter Frazer, of Edinburgh : “Peter was’.a facetious spirit of great local repute, well-known, too, to a large circle of friends in London, and to one of his humorous feats I was witness. Thackeray, during his Georgian era in Edinburgh, was Mr. Black wood’s guest, and one evening, when the ladies had left, us over our claret, a ring was heard, followed by a controversy at the street door between the visitor and the .butler, who pre sently came in and announced that the Pro vost of Peterhead wished to see Mr. Thack eiay. Tlie novelist, having already undergone considerable?” persecution* at the hands of his Scottish admirers, broke out upon this into exasperation, and desired the butler to say that he was engaged, and could not, in fact, would not, see the gentleman. The applicant, how ever, persisted, positively refusing to depart without an Interview; and Thackeray, being at last induced to/go into the hall, was imme diately heurd in indignant remonstrance. ‘Sir*’ he said in loud tones, ‘I will not be per secuted in.lhis way.-r« You have no right to •annoy me;’ and thenwas heard a scuffle and clattering of .umbrella-stands and barometers, which brought the ladies in alarm from the drawing-room, their frightened faees appear ing over the bannisters, and .drew host and guests from then wine; when in this perse vering Provost, the'n engaged in a mock combat vyith the illustrious object of his search, we recognized the mad wag - Peter, with whom,at the termination of the conflict, we returned in triumph to the claret;'”-. Newspaper Editing-. I should like to say a few words in favor of my'rtwn noble profession, newspaper edit ing. Mr. Carlyle may spitefully call it “the California of the spiritually vagabond," but there is a proud pleasure in knowing that we gentlemen of the press furnish the great Ame rican people with„tkeir ideas and their phrases, ready made,-just-as Brooks Brothers and Oak Hall'.provide them with their clothes. All veiy much alike, it is true,---“our spring style,” and often ill-fitting and graceless; but we seem to fill a national want. Our names may be unknown outside of our offices, but the great planets are perceptibly influenced in their courses by little asteroids inyjsible to the naked eye, and many a celebrity who appears daily in-large type is moved by the strings we pull, and knows it not. My'comrade Tarhox says: “The oracles that became dumb in the year of our Lord were really a neces sity to mankind, and consequently were made Vocal again by the agency of Kenaudot, who invented newspapers. The Delphis and Dodonas of the nineteenth century are news paper offices.” This may explain why young men in search of a profitable career write to us instead of applying to rich merchants or to dashing brokers; How fortunate that those who consult us never, see the shrine or the priests! No gold or silver, glitters in the modem adytum, or editor’s' room; and the tripod from which wo distribute our afflatus to the compositors is a wooden three-legged stool, unpainted and unf cushioned. That great oracle, Tarhox him self, was not long ago a noble savage who ran wild in the woods near some country college. Caught and caged in that institu tion, he devoted three years to pipes, and one to belles*iettres, .an 4 receiving from a good natured faculty'some sort ot a degree, proba bly that of tobacco-laureate, came thcnco to town, where, inspired by a salary often dol lars a week, he enlightens tho public •on finance and pclitics.avt and literature,manners and taste, and writes those brilliant articles the world willingly lets die. When the California gold mines were first dis covered. a clever fellow said that he knew of no opening for a young man like the South west Pass. That is still tine for rough, coarse self-asserting characters; but for delicate re fined. stay-at-home natures, who have wishes without wills, there are many ways of get'inir their porridge without selling their birthright of doing as little as possible. If they cannot fioat, buoyantly on the surface, at least they need not sink-far beneath it, but may enjoy a (iiiiek water-logged kind of existence, not devoid of comfort. —[Atlantic Month'u for »SV pternber. ] . “’the Cry In SI 111 they Conn:.” Our country is specially favored, or to ke fs vored, this coming season.

This is far from the first time that similar Tesults have followed from the same kind of reading. Coil ryoisier attributed his UKras.simitimi of Lord William Russell to a state of iiKJTOid sympathy with crime induced by !he perusal of the then popular romance of “Jack Sheppard;” and the annals of the police since then furnish many other in stances. Mr. Ainsworth (who of course thought; of writing nothing more than amusing fictions) has been unfortunate in having popularized, and invested with a halo of romance, two such scoundrels as Sheppard and Turpin. " The death is announced of Dr. Costello, which lias just taken place in Paris. The deceased gentleman was a native of Ireland, having been-born near Dublin in the year 1 Mio. Dr. Costello was formerly proprietor of the Wye House Asylum for the Insane, Brentford, and known for his valuable papers • On the Reform and Management of Lunatic Asylums.” He was a great contributor to medical literature and the author of several works of great celebrity in bis day, but that which has given liis name a permanent dis tinction is the ‘‘Gyclopatdia of Practical Sur gery.” ...

I . „ : - Sixteen dollars were lately obtained, at a literary sale in London, for a letter from William Cowper, the poet, in which he writes: “It is a great thing indeed to he a poet, and doeß not happen to more than one man in a century. Churchill, the great Churchill, deserved the name of poet; such natural, unforced effusions of genius, the world, I believe, has never seen jnnee the days of Shakespeare. ” At present, Churchill scarcely ranks among tho third-class poets, though Mb place is among the second-class satirists. * “Ai.no Manuzio, the famous printer of the- Aldine. editions of the claßßics,” says the- Ito lie of Florence, “left very incomplete memorials of his own life. Lately M.Armand Baschet has had the good fortune to discover at Venice, among tho archives of the Princes ■ of the House ofGonzngo, a number of Mamt zio’s letters,which throw an interesting light upon his biography. They have just been published by M. Antonio Antonello, a Vene tian printer, in a style of which the okl Aldine himself would not be ashamed.!’.

Two more volumes of the literary remains: of Frederick RUckcrt have lately appeared, the one at Frankfort, the cither aJJLeipsic. Tile first, “Licder uud Sprltche,” is a selection from his store of lyrics and terse sayings in verse; tho second is entirely devoted to trails iatidns, containing versions of some of the-- idyls of Theocritus, the “Birds” of Aristo phanes, and the : “Sakantala” of Kalidasa.
