Sharp Prat,Uee.
Mr. Baker himself told us this story.
Be said it was true ; nor is this unlikely.
I have known Mr. William Henry Baker
personally for a number of years, and I
HID inclined to think he has hitherto
never in all his life told the truth. Now,
it is so manifestly improbable that the
most consistent man should protract a
long and useful career of story telling to
such extraordinary without at some
period telling the truth by sheer mit&ul
vepture, that it is quite likely Mr. Baker
may have committed himself in this in
stance. At least the time has arrived for
human nature to assert itself, according
to doctrine of averages.
" On,ly once, gentlemen," said Mr. 8..
" have I been deceived. William Henry
keeps his eyes open, in a 'general way ;
William Henry also takes the liberty of
seeing oat of them. llb uses them, as a
rule, for purposes of observation, gentle
men. Still, I admit I was once taken in
by as•dead a swindle as could be ; I am
not ashamed to own it. I made money by
it, after all ; but I was swindled.
"It was about adiarnond ring. I knew
the fellow who had it for many years in
the way of business. He was a commer
cial traveler, and used always to flash this,
ring about whenever he came round on
his jt,nrneys. A jeweller friend of mine,
who happened to be in my office when
Mr. Blook called asked, I remember, to
be allowed to examine it ; and had pro
nuanced the stones to be of the purest wa
ter;telling me afterwards the ring was
worth about seventy pounds. Mr. Blook's
initials were engraved inside the hoop of
the ring : ' R. B.'; and besides that, it was
a ring of peculiar and rather old fashion
ed make. Indeed, having once seen the
ring, no one would be likely to mistake it
for another. Well, Mr. Blook got into dif
ficulties, and went so entirely the bad,
that I never saw or heard anything more
of him. But about two years afterwards,
whilst walking down a back street, my
eye was taken by a ring exhibited in a
pawn broker's window. Mr. Blook's
ring,ll exclaimed directly ; ' 11l swear to
it.' It was in a tray with. a number of
very seedy looking rings, and was as dis
colored and dirty as they were. I went
into the shop and asked to look at it.
The pawn broker, an old Jew, said 'vesh:
I might see his ringish but he didn't
know nosh about ringish himshelf. They
wosh unredeemed pledges—thash what
they wosh—and they wosh all marked at
the monish advanshed upon them, with a
very shmall overplush for interesh—thash
all he knew."
"There was no mistake about it. It
was Mr. Blook's ring,and had his initials
inside. But how did the Jew get it ? lle
would soon tell me. Referring td his book
he found it had been pawned two years
ago in the name of Smith—'Thash all he
knew. Would I buy ? It was dirt cheap
—three poundsh twelve and cost him all
the monish
" Three pounds twelve I repeated.
thinking he had made a mistake; for the
ring was worth twenty times that arrint !
Well, if it wosh too dear, be had some
sheaper ones—beautiful riugsh, he dare
shxy—but he knew sho little about riugsh
you shee, essphet that he alwaysh ad-
Toughed to mosh mouish on them. One
couldn't undershtand every thing in his
bish nisi, you shee, from flatironsh to di
month.
" I bought the ring after beating the
Jew down half a crown, partly to prevent.
his suspecting its real value, and partly—
well knowing the disposition of the pecu
liar people—to oblige him.
" I wore my new purchase about, with I
no little inward satisfaction at having
bettered a Jew at a bargain. In my own
mind, I accounted for its coming into his .
possession somewhat in this way ; Mr. •
Blook must have sold the ring when in
difficnities to some one else. It was quite
certain Mr. hook had not pawned it at
the Jew's, or the Jew would hare known
its value. The ring must, then, have ei
ther been lost by, or stolen from, a snbse-
quent possessor ; and the finder, or thief.
(whichever it happened to be.) being ig
norant of its value, had taken it to the
Jew, who knew no better.
" There is a certain commereial club in
our town, which I occasionally visit. The
members are of an easy and somewhat
lively disposition ; generidly given to in
dulge in that playful style of banter pop
ularity known as 'chaff: My diamond
ring cone in fora good share of it. I can
stand chaff as well as most men; but I put
it to von, if when you know very well your
brilliants are real, it isn't a little annoy
ing for the chaff of a whole body of people
to assume the character of
jewelry
dis
belief in the value of your ? For
instance, the waiter answers the
" Did any gentleman ring ?'
" 0 yes, one of the members would re
tort ; it was the gentleman with
"the '' 4
paste diamonds.'
Amin, there are kinds of sham brill- I
hints known as Irish Diamondlcand Isle
Wight Diamonds. The club Not one or
two members, but the wnole body) refused
to r'eVitize Bitch distincticins, and insis
ted Cit‘ilesignating the whole class of
shams as Baker's Diamonds.' Baker's
Paste, my gems were also denominated.
Th e y aewaiy sent me by post a circular :
of somebod s Baking Powder, adding to
it at the en , where it says the public is
==respectfully cautioned against spurious
imitations, but more particularly against
a rather spacious preparation to deceive
the unwary, known as Baker's 4 Fade."'
Now, after two or three weeks, this be-
came tiresome. Still, I. took nu I } utrne,
and affected nOtto think the remarks in
ted forme. • • •
" I hardly know-what Made me go and
etch on m,y friend, :Ole-jeweller. It was
not tbat I had any doubt of the genuine-
ness of the diamonds, especially as ho was
the very man who had before valued Mr.
Blook's ring at seventy pounds. But it
had been so dinned into my head they I
were false, that I wanted just a formal con
tirmation of the estimate he had previous
ly formed of their worth.
" 0 yes,' said my friend the jeweller : "I
recognize the ring again directly. Want
to know what it's worth ? (He put it in
the scales) " Well—h'm—about seven
and twenty shillings for old gold.'
" Eh?' said I, aspule as a turnip. 'Why
didn't you tell me it was worth seventy
pounds ?'
" Yeg,' ho answered ; 'when it had dia
monds in it—nut when it has paste.'
Talking the matter over, the jewetler
sugested, that on Mr. Blook getting into
dittiulties, the first thing lie did was to
sell the diamonds out of his ring, and get
their places supplied with paste ; whilst,
finally, he had pawned it himself with the
Jew. ns a paste rin g .
" Well, 'William Henry,' said I to my
self, 'the Jew has jewel you, and the club
has chaired you, and you may consider
yourself trod upon, after the manner of
speaking.'
" But the worm will turn.
"Did the jeweller let out diamonds on
hire ? I asked.
" Ile did.
" Would he have a certain alteration,
which I suggested, made in my ring in a
fortnighrs time ?
" Ile would
" And keep it secret ?
" Certainly—business was business.'
" For the whole of that fortnight I nev
er went near the club ; that was proba
bly the reason why my appearance at the
club dinnerwas greeted with such lively
sallies about Baker's... Taste. One would
be wag recommended me, whilst helping
a tart, 'to keep my linters out of the pas
try.". Believing him to intend some ob
seureullusion.to the !gems on my little
tingei, I thought it time to fire.
" Gentlemen,' said I, 'for some weeks I
have listened to casual observations in
which the name of Baker has been unwor
thily associated with paste and pastry, but
have refrained from making any remark
lia‘,ing been firmly persuaded . they could
only apply to industrious tradesmen em
ployed in the manufacture of home bak
ed bread.' (Oh, oh !) 'lt now occurs to
me that such remarks were intended in
alinsion to the ring I wear,—a ring—l
take this opportunity of informing, you
which, unlike the wits who have amused
themselves at its expense, is indebted for
its brilliancy to natnre.'
" They hooted me ; they heaped oppro
brious epithets on the name of Baker ;
they laughed and talked me down.
I'll bet him five pounds it's past6',
said one.
So will I,' &aid another. 'And I.'
'And I:
" So said eleven of them
• " Really, gentlemen, said I, am sorry
you should take the matter so much in
earnest. All I can tell you is, I believe
my ring to be a diamond ring, and this,
notwithstanding I will freely admit I on
ly paid a very small sum for it."
" They laughed and hooted me still
more at this admission. They said that
settled the question, and that it was paste.
" I told them I didn't think it was.
" Well, would I bet ?'
" I would rather not.
" More hooting.
"At length, very reluctantly, I over
came my scruple& The name of Baker
is a mime too closely allied to the gentle
bred (arms, four lorves, ppr--segant, quar
tered—crest, the due, levant) to allow it
to be wantonly sullied. I bet.
`• We adjourned to the jewellers's.
'• Without question, they were dia
monds,' the jeweller decided, 'and some of
the finest he had ever seen.' He ought
to know, as they were his property—hired
by me for the occasion.
`• Eleven fives is fifty five, gentlemen.'
" Having established the value of my
r:rig, and freed the name of Baker froin
suspicion, I paid for the hire of the real
gems, and had the paste stones rest in
their places, believing after all, the repu
tation for diamonds to be as gold as the
possession of them, and free from the anx
et.v.
it was talked about, and noised abroad;
it even ft-ached the little back street where
the pawnbroker lived. Yon should have
seen him.
"Beal shtones! omy heart ! Slieven

know that fokshs do shotuetimes come
and pawn real diamoushe parhte. sho as

"lle came to me. He grovelled, and
wiggled, and twisted himself before me.—
Be prayed me to sell him his ring again.-

" What did I say ? Could I turn a deaf
ear to the distress of the old man ? There
are people who might do it,ntlemen,
but not 'people of the name of Bakcr.-not
W. IL Baker. I certainly did ask him
fur more money. We compromised it at
last at twenty-two ten, which ho paid,
part in sixpences and coppers, and owes
me forirpeucelialfpenny to this day.
" Twenty-two, nite and sevenpence-halt

paid for he real diamonds; fur I brought

jeweller, and had them set in a ring the
