GOTHAM'S GAMBLING DENS. THB UtETHODS OT OAMBLER3 HJ THE METROPOLIS. Securing" Victims Tho ToHnhed Kopr-rs-In and Their Wtjw-How t-he Yonnjt Irrn. Writing about Hie gambling dens of New York, "Ilprmit" sajs in the Troy Tim$ : JS"o one ran obtain admittance to tirt-las "Jieli" unless he U intro-dsic-ed, and lirnre the door it carefully guarded; but however secure thry may be from lcg-fil interference, there is dan ger from epionn?c. Merchant s fre queotlj fiod it jrajtortant to watch their clerks, and a njxf-ial detective mitrht thus interfere with the internal of the Institution. But intriHluction is not dif ficult to any one who has money. In deed, there are per'ti lounging and in aom can even ivirJ:n;r at the h"t hotels who are employed to lead at rangers to these jilace of ruin. Thews "roiiers 1b'' are handsomely dred, and have that ecy and elegunt way that marks the "citireri of the world." They notice the arrivals and closely scan each newcomer, cd if any of the Utter exhibit any iln of wealth the net is at once spread. First comes the genial smile and the winning conversation. The "ropcr-in" ii of course a business man and knows how to talk business. The conversation then extends to the wonderful sight offered by the metrojolU, and erliaps before another evening has rated the stranger is ready to survey Broadway by gaslight. Most visitors are fond of adventure, which a companion naturally renders more attract ive. They take an evening stroll, and a drink adds to the exhilaration of the walk. After a brief walk the ,lroper-in" stops before an elejrant private house, remark ing as he does so: "I wish to call on a friend; will you accompany met" "Cer tainly," is the reply, and after a ring at the door they enter an elegant and spa cious parlor where gentlemen are enjoy ing the newspn)crs or conversation. Later on a musical b'-ll is heard, announcing upper, and this dispels all memory of the "mend" who was to be seen. The "roper in" intimates that they had better accept the invitation, and they find in the next room a table glittering with silver phito and laden with tempting dishes. In com mon with the rest they enjoy the luxurious fare, and then wine is served, and all drink freely until the delicious delirium has wrought its full power, when they adjourn to the room upstairs. Here a number of "gentlemen" are playing cards, and at the head of the room the clerk is selling circular pieces of ivory or metal, called "chips," each of which is stamped with a value from $1 up to 1 100. " Vou perceive," says the decoy, "that we have entered the temple of fortune. Borne of the men before us will before morning make thousands, while others will lose. Ko one should play who has not nerve enough to bear a loss, and if he bears it boldly it will come back again. Fortune always favors the bold." The visitor soon sees men who commenced with a dozen chips go in a little time to the desk with 60 or 100 and change them into greenbacks, and so, to try his luck, he ventures a $3 bill and wins. This sur prises him, and he tries again, and again wins. These gains he puts at risk onco more, and wins a still larger sum. This stimulates him to another throw, and he loses. "Perhaps," says the friend, "fortune has ceased her favor. Shall you stop here t" "One more, first," says the victim, and he wins. Another, and he loses, and the next moment wins again. He now becomes more excited than ever and continues the game. Indeed, it is almost impossible to break olf until the rooms are closed at approach of dawn. He settles with the ' bank," as the proprietor is called, and finds him self the winner by $.10. This is a strange but pleasine appearance, and as he walks back to his hotel he is conscious of anew. and powerful appetite, Having arrived at his room he seeks rest in vain, but may ' at least be able to dream of the bank an , its pile of wealth. The next night he trie his luck again with varied j success and with still deeper excitement; and thus he is led on, one step at a time, until be has reached a condition favorable for finishing his case, which is then ac complished. It is Dot uncommon for several pigeons to be plucked, at the same house and at the same time. Concerning these decoys, it may be said that they are in many cases polished gentlemen. They are well paid, the rate, of course, do pending on their success. Thus, if $3,000 ie won from one of their dupes, the "roper-in" should expect at least $500. This he is not expec ted to keep. Indeed, it is probable that his love of gaming will soon lead him to lose this at the hands of some more adroit master of the art. After the "roper-in" has got too old and shaky for bis trade he is turned off to shift for himself. Many years ago a young man of one of the first families succeeded in getting an appointment as purser in the navy. He was a dissolute fellow, and among other vices was addicted to gambling. Asa result, instead of acquiring a competence, as he might have done, he became a heavy defaulter and was obliged to re sign. Previous to this he hud won the allections of a New England girl of an influential family, and jut-t us he re signed they were married. Her friends, to whom he made a good excuse for his change, procured him a high posi tion in civil life, but ho was soon dis missed for gaining and other dissolute conduct, and his wife subsequently pro cured a bill of divorce. He then came to this city, where he became an attache of a first class "hell." His elegant manners gave him great success, and for a number of years ho lived in handsome btyle. Dis sipation, however, brought premature old age, and as soon us his powers of fascination were gone he was cast olf in helpless poverty. He now lives upon the charity of his ueur relatives, and is u miserable illustration of a wasted life. One of the greatest dangers to which a young man from the country is liable is found in the bad companions met in boarding houses. There are several hundreds of these establishments within a quarter of a mile of L'uion square, and rurk contain from leu to twenty clerks. When a country youth enters one of these he is in it new world. He comes with a stock of good resolutions, and has been well laden with paternal advice, but the pre.ssuro which now surrounds tiu is far mors powerful. As a mutter of conrfe, most of Lis twoelati rt dissipated, and there ii rivaJry which ahall b the fint to Induct him into evil. WISE WORDS. Every man bss follies, and oftentimes they are the most interesting thing he has got. A noble nature can alone attract the noble, and alone knows how to retaiu them. They also work who plant the roses, else were we little better than the beasts of the field. When the forenoons of life are wasted there is not much hope of a peaceful and fruitful evening. Onure is mot effectual when mixed with praise; so when a fault is disc overed. it is well to look up a virtue to go in company with it. AVhencvcr I find a great deal of grati tude in a tocr man I take it for granted there would be a much generosity if he j ere a rich man. This tide of man'a life after it once turneth and declineth ever runneth with a perpetual ebb and fallinsr stream, but never floweth again. If the grain were separated from the chaff whih fills the works of our na tional poets, what is truly valuable would be to what is useless in the proportion ol a mole-hill to a mountain. Hverbody is making mistakes. Every body is finding out afterward that he has made a mistake, But there can be no greater mistake than the stopping to worry over a mistako already made. Kind words, and liberal estimates, and generous acknowledgement, and ready appreciation and unscifh delight in the excellences of others these are the true signs of a large intellect and a noble spirit. A Novel Aqnarlum. Mention has been made in the news papers from time to time of the novel aquarium that Mr. Adolpb Sutro iptended to build out upon the ocean beach, near the Cliff House. Those who have been out to the Cliff House and have descended the steps that lead to the beach, will doubtless have noticed a little cove sheltered between two high rocks about 100 feet from the steps. In this cove the aquarium is now being built. The aquarium will consist of a round wall of rock fifty feet in diame ter, fifteen feet thick, and fourteen feet high, and will be rootless. The flooring will be made in a unique way, according to Air. Hutro's plans. Solid pathways of rock will le built around the interior of the aquarium, and between them there will be little ponds of water that will be three and four feet at low water. The water will come into these ponds from the ocean with fish and other marine ob jects in the following manner: A tunnel !t00 feet long and eight feet high will be bored through the rock between the ocean and the acquarium, and at the sea ward side of tho tunnel there will be wire-screen gates, which can be opened and shut. At high tido the gates will be suffered to remain open, so that the water and the living ' objects in it can come freely into the acquarium. At high water the whole acquarium will be flood ed tho pathways and everything and no one can go in then, When tkcsjlide begins to recede the gates aro shut, and only the water can flow through them. The living objects will be re tarded, and will seek the comparatively deep water in the ponds. When the waters have receded sufliciently from th pathways the public will be admitted in side the walls. Sea anemones, devil fish, angel fish, starfish, crustaceans, shells, all varieties of large and small fish, and perhaps even occasional seals may be caught in the acquarium. At low tide there will always be something interest ing to see there. San Francitco Call. Manufacture of Hairpins. For years the English and French con trolled the manufacture of hairpins, and it is only within the last twenty years mat the goods have been produced in this country to any extent. The machinery used is of a delicuto aud intricate, char acter, as the prices at which pins are sold necessitate the most rapid and cheapest process, which can only bo procured by automatic machines. The wire is made expressly for the purpose and put up in large coils, which are placed in a clamp, which carries it to the machine while straightening it; from there it runs in another machine, w hich cuts, bends, and, by a delicate and instantaneous process, sharpeus the points. Running at full speed these machines will turn out 120 hairpins every minute. To economize, it is necessary to keen them working night and day. The difficult part is the euumeling, which is done by dipping in a preparation and baking in an oven. Here is where tho most constant and careful attention is required, as tho pin must be perfectly smooth and the enamel have a perfect polish. The slightest particles of dust cause imperfections and roughness, which are objectionable. ISruuklyn Citizen, Killed Through Joy. "Joy never kills" is an old saying, often met with in the last pages of three volume romunces, but its truth has been disproved in two instances in recent oc currence. One was that of an old uegro woman who, on being awarded u large pension owing to her husband, died under tho shock of the announcement; the other is also to be laid at the door of the pension department, whose notifica tion of the intended payment of several thousand dollars to a disabled soldier in this city caused the poor man's hetrt to give such a leap of happiness that a blood vessel was burst, and death ensued. These mishaps remind us of the words of the poet Horace, familiar in our school clays, which warned his friends to keep an even mind in the presence of great sorrows aud sudden joys alike. Gulden ArQusy. Y.gS Testers. "AValk in aud see the egg testers," said one the largest egg dealers in the city. There were four of them hard at work in a darkened room, each seated before a candle aud passing eggs rapidly before the light. They each bundle ubtnit ten barrels, or fcvlOO eggs per iluy. KlltU fresh egg slio-vs a speck of uir at the large end; if the egg is stale the spot is larger. A good egg is transparent, If bad it is opaque. A'e Yvrk i'um SCIENTIFIC AND IXDUSIHUI. Chemist are at work in the French Antilles perfecting processes for making alcohol from sweet potatoes. One gallon of alcohol can be made from fifty-eight pounds of sweet potatoes. The Germans use at the present day among their furniture makers, carpenters and joiners thirteen different varieties of saws, each of which ha its own peculiar size of the teeth, as well a a different relation of the teeth to each other. A new way of tempering drill points is to heat them cherry-red and drive into a lr of lead. A workman in a mint acci dentally discovered the fact by throwing, in disgust, a drill that he was trying to temper, so that it stuck in a piece of lead. A citizen of Davenport, la., whose garden is situated about 100 feet from an electric light tower, has remarked that his lillieg cioe at sunset, but open sgain a few minutes after the arc lamps have .en lighted. It has been observed at Detroit too, that the foliage of the tree exposed to the rays of the electric light is much more luxuriant than that of such trees as are not. The handy w heel attac hment known as the odometer for measuring distance ha long been used. A new instrument called the "autographomcter" ha now been contrived to automatically register, being carried about on a light vehicle, the difference of level of the points over which it passes. The art of surveying threatens to be reduced to the mere roll ing of a wheel. There has recently been invented in Paris a small press which will enable blind people not only to print the raised characters which they are able to read with their Angers, but also the ordinary cliaractcrs on the same sheet of paper. A system of writing for blind people has, of course, already been invented by Braille, but it only permitted them to communicate with each other, whereat the new mechanicism enables them to form letters which can be read by every body. Henceforward, therefore, blind persons will be able to communicate by letter with their friends, without being obliged to have recourse to the assistance of others. t An Extraordinary Recovery. The lad Harris, who rode Richmond in his races at Washington, is the young man who was so badly injured at Lato nia last fall, when his horse fell while in the lead in front of a field of thirteen horses, then got up and dragged the senseless jockey after him for nearly a furlong. ' I don't think the full facta of Harris' marvellous escape have ever been printed, heuco a paragraph will be interesting. Harris was picked up for dead and his body laid out and placed in a coffin. It was kept for a couple of days so as to enable his wife and sister to attend the funeral. The night on which they ar rived they were taken to tho coffin. For some reason or other iho attendant touched the eyelid andlVaised it. To everybody's horror the ey was seen to move. Harris was taken out of the cof fin and soon gave more pronounced man ifestations of life. When he recovered consciousness entirely, however, it was found that ho was insane. He was placed in an insane asylum, where he remained for three months. His reason returned as suddenly as it had left him. Hut his memory is a complete blank for tho three horrible months. All he remembers is putting on the colors for the race. After that ho has forgotten everything up to tho time ho regained his mental faculties in tho asylum. Sporting World. Wrinkled Age and Youth. Age takes small account of the imme diate flight of time, says II. C. Banner, in Scribner. To the young a year is a mighty span. Be it a happy or an un happy year that youth looks forward to, it is a vista that stretches far into the future. And when it is done, this in terminable year, and youth, just twelve months older, looks back to the first of it, what a long way oil it is. What tre mendous progress we have made. How much more we know, now insufficient are the standards by which we measured tho world a poor 803 days back ! But age has grown habituated to the flight of lime. Years I We have seen so many of them that they make no great impression upon us. What 1 is it ten years since young Midas first came to the counting-room, asking humbly for an entry clerk's place he who is now the head of the firm. Bless us I it seems like yesterday. Is it ten years since we first put on that coat! Why it must be clean out of the fashion by this time.

At last my husband he would g-et me some of your medicines, I would try them against the advice of my physician. He got me six bottles of the 'Favorite Prescription also six bottles of tbe 'Discovery,' for ten dollars. I took three bottles of 'Discovery' and four of Favorite Proscription,' and I have been a sound woman for four years.
