THE GAMESTER'S WIFE.
This rare, because pleasing passage, in
the domestic history of a gamester (we do
not mean the' having a wife too good for him
—which muitbe the case with all gamaters
whose :wives : are' good for anythingbut
,
the , agreeable surprise which she had pre
,
,paredihr hini against his downfall) y is re
'lated . by Goldsmith. in his life of Beau
`Nash.` It looks, says Mr. Leigh Hunt, like
a page out of one of' Fielding's novels:
At Tunbridge,. in the year 1815, Mr. J.
Hedges made a . very brilliant appearance;
he bad been married about two years to a
Young lady of great beauty and large for
tune; they had one child, a boy,.f on whom
*Ahoy bestowed all that affection which they
could • epare from each other. He knew
nothing of gaming, nor seemed to have the
least passion .for play; but he was unac
.
quainted with his own 'heart: he began by
degrees to bet at the table for trifling sums,
and his soul took fire at the prospect of im
mediate gain; he was soon surronnded by
sharpers, who with calmness lay in am
bush for his fortune, and coolly tdok advan
tage of the precipitancy of his-passions.
His lady perceived the ruin of her family
approaching, but, at first, without being
able to form any scheme , to prevent it. She
advised with his brother, who at that time
was possessed of a small' fellowship at Cam
bridge: It was easily seen that whatever
passion took the lead in her husband's
mind, seemed.to be there fixed unalteiebly;
it was. determined, therefore, •to let him
pursue fortune,, but previously take meal
ure to prevent the pursuit being fatal.
Accordingly, every night, this gentleman
was a constant attendant at ihe hazard ta
hies; he understood neither the arts of sharp-,
era, nor even the allowed strokes of a con
noiseur, yet 'still he played. The conse
quence is obvious; he lost his estate, his
. equipage, his wife's jewels, and every other
Moveable that could 'be parted with, ex
, cept a' repeating watch. His agony,
•up in this occasion was inexpressible;
he was even mean enough to ask a gentle
.man who sat near to lend him a few pieces,
in order to turn his fortune, but this prudent
gamester, who plainly saw; there was , no
expectations of - being repaid, refused to
lend a B ing, alleging a former resolution
against en ding . Hedges. was at last furl.
.', . our wi continuance of , ill.success, and
`:pulling out his watch,asked if any person
in the company would set him sixty guineas
upon it. The company weresilent; lie then
demanded fifty; still no answer; he sunk to
forty, thirty, twenty; finding the company
still without answering, lie cried Out, "By
heavens ' it shill never go for less !" and
dashed it against the floor, at the same time
sitempting to dash out his brains against
the marble chimney-piece.
This last act of desperation- immediately
excited the attention of the whole'company;
they instantly gathered round, and prevent
ed the effects of his passion; and after he
again became cool, he was permitted to re
turn home, with sullen disconcert, to his
- wife. Upon his entering her-apartment,
she received him with her usual tenderness
' and satisfaction; while he ansWered - her
• caresses with contempt and severity, his
disposition being quite altered with his mis
fortunes. "But, my dear Jemmy," says
his wife, "perhaps you dont know the news
I have to tell; my mamma's old uncle is
dead, the messetiaer is now in the house,
and you knoW his estate is settled upon
you.' This account seemed to increase
his agony, and looking angrily at her. he
cried,—"There you are in wrong, mydear;
his estate is not,. settled 'open me. " "I
beg your pardon, says she, I really thought
it was, at least you always told me so."
"No," returned he, "as sure as
you and I are to 'be miserable
here, and our children beggers here
after, I have E o!cl ihe reversion of it
this day, and have lost every farthing I got
forit at the hazard table." "What, all ?"
replied the lady. "Yes, every farthing,”
returned he, "and I owe a thousand pounds
more.than I have got to ray." Thus speak
ing, he took a few frantic steps 'across the
roorn. When the lady had enjoyed : his per
plexity—"No, my dear," cried she, "you
_have lost but a trifle, and you owe nothing;
your brother and I have taken care to pre
vent the effects of your rashness, and are,
actually the persons who have won your,
.fortune; we employed proper persons for
.this_purpose, who brought their winnings to
me. Your money, your equipage, are in
my possesison, and I here return them to
you, from whem they were lately taken. , I
only ask permission to keep my jewejs, and
to keirryou, my greatest jewel, from cinch
dangers for the future." - Her prudence had
. the proper effeel, He ever after retained . a
sense'of his fOrmer follies, and never played
•
again,., even for amusement.

Death of a Revolutionary Soldier's Widow
—Six Generations of Her Descendants at
the Funeral.
To the Edi'ors of the New York Ecening!
Poet:
On my last Saturday night's visit to my
country residence at Valley Forge, FA„,,
the firat words from all the children, etOter
the uual welcome,. were: "Ght
good oldgrandmother Posey is dead;and
we are all invited to the funeral. She died
on-Thursday morning, and was one hun
dred and two years and ten months old,
and might have lived many years, longer if
she had not received a: stroke. of palsy
whichlearried het off suddenly: - None of
us expected she .would die for many years
yet, she appeared so well.
Here followed a long account oftheman
ner in Which the good old lady had within
a few weeks entertained-the - family= by the
recital `of some of her remembrances of
Washington and his army while encamped
upon those memorable grounds - during the
severe winter of 1777.8. She told how
herself and mother knit stockings for the
poor soldiers, and how, the army being in
need of horses, her father let them have all
his; and she remembered the exact amount
her father received for each, and the kind
of money the quartermaster paid him with.
Her father was intimate with Washington,
and frequently spent the evening at the .
General's quarters;
Up to within a short time, she frequently
visited the same old quarters, which are in
perfect order, and now occupied as a dwell
ing. She would tell how hard her mother
worked all one day in preparing bread and
butter, while she distributed it to the tired
and hungryloldiers as they passed her fa
ther's house on their .way to the battle of
the Brandywine, a short distance from
there. Her - husband, .Micagia Posey, who
was much older than hermit; was a Revo
lutionary soldier, fought under Colonel
Bull, was Wounded and taken prisoner, and
after enduring many hardships was ex
changed. After the war they were married,
and lived happily together until his death,
which occurred forty-one years ago, in the
eighty-seventh year of his age.
While attending the funeral services of
our aged friend, we were forcibly struck
by the character and appearance of the
mourners. The ch:ef of these were those of
hex children who were living, except. one
daughter, aged eighty, too old- and feeble
to attend; next came - white haired grand
children,followed by great-grandchildren,
many of them quite grey; after these a large
-number of great-great-grandchildren, grown
to man and womanhood, with several of
their children, these last representatives the
last at the funeral.
Mrs.. Rachel Posey had ten children,.
eighty-one grandchildren, one hundred and
nineteen great grandchildren, thirty-three
great-great-grandchildren.
Victor Hugo
Francis Victor Hugo, the son of the nov
elist, writes as follows to a weekly paper of
New York-city concerning his father's
forthcoming novel
The papers have, announced that the au
thor of Les MiEetables is about to publish a
romance entitled Quatre vingt treize, and a
drama entitled "Des Jumeaux." The truth
is that the romance Quatre-vingt treize is
not begun and that the drama "Les Ju
mean; ' begun in 1839, was interrupted in
the fourth act, and so left for twenty-nine
years, Victor Hugo (allow me to speak of
him as though I were not the most respeet
ful of his sons) is concluding at this mol
ment a romance in four - volumes, the scene
of which is laid in England, while the action
paages at the conclusion of the seven
teenth century and at the commencement
of the eighteenth.•• The few initiated who
have seen this new work predict for it the
same success which was enjoyed by Notre
• Dame de Paris, and Les Miserables. ,I am
not sufficiently impartial to confirm or to
contradict a prophecy that is gratifying to
me. Vi tor Hugo is now writing the con
cluding, chapters. You will - probably have
the-opportunity of seeing this new romance
in the course of the winter. What is its
title? The author himself; as yet, does not
know. He is hesitating between two4itles,
which, hitherto, have pleased him equally.
The first is L'Hoinme qui Rit (the man who
laughs); The second is Par Ordre du Roi
(by order of the King.) The first title gives
the best idea of the book; the second is the
hest resume of its action. The first is the
most philosophical; the second is the most
dramatic. In my coming letter Imay be
able to inform you which of the two has
been selected.

AMERICAN SILVER COIN IN . CANADA.-
The outcry In Can'ada against the circula
tion of the silver halrdollars and quarter
dollars of the United' States Is said to have
originated with the banks of the British
provinces. The American coinage degived
them of the profits derived from the issue of
their small notes, and hence - they refused to
accept It on deposit, except at a discount.
But the tact that this refusal to receive the
money of the United States is injuring the
Canadians has at last been discovered: At
Kingston the dry goods inemhants and gro
cers,have given notice that they will take
our silver at par. At Toronto the combina
tion against it has been broken up; in con
sequence of the defection of, a jeweler,' who
Anew its worth, and nowlt is taken by all
classes in that city at ' its 'par valde:, It is
the same at BrantfOrd, Chatimim,and other
places. The example...ls k ore to be followed,
and ddi . mbney soon be taken for what
it is WOrth by all classes in Canada.
