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

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

Eviis of Bap Litekatuke. —A youth em
ployed as a milkman at Belper, in Derby
shire, England, has, without any apparent
motive, attempted to murder an old house
keeper, under the influence of along course
of stories about Dick Turpin and Jack Shep
pard. 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,

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.
