years siucc, as the "Mad IVet." Durini;

free to tho Astor House) table, and often
times this errant man of genius could be
seen accepting its hospitalities when other
doors were closed on his fallen fortunes.
Every one knew Clarke by sight ; aud ooe
day, while quietly taking bis dinner, two
travelers, seating themselves opposite,
commenced a conversation intended for
the ears of Clarke. One said : " Well,
I have been in Xew York two months, and
have seen all I wish to sec, with one ex
ception." " Ah I" said the other, "what is that ?"
"M'Donald Clarke, the great poet,' re
sponded Xo. 1, with strong emphasis.
Clarke raised his eyes slowly from his
plate, and seeing the attention of the table
was on him, stood op, placing bis hand
over his heart, and bowiog with great
gravity said : "I am M'Donald Clarke,the
great poet."
The traveler started ia mock surprise,
gazed at him in silence a few moments,
and then, amidst an audible titter of the
company, drew from bis pocket a quarter
dollar, and laid it before Clarke, still look
ing at him without a smile.
Clarke raised the quarter in silence and
dignity, put it in his pocket and drew
thence a shilling, which he deposited be
fore the traveler with the words, " Children
half price."
The titter changed to a roar, and the
traveler wti missiog instanter.

Iu about three weeks after this conver

i that he had a paper in the office. He was
highly pleased at this announcement, bat
could not thiuk who was so very kind as
to send htm a paper. After many conjec
tures, however, he came to the conclusion
that it was from some friend whom he had
assisted in former years.
One year had passed ; the paper contin
ued to come,and X. was .till ignorant from
whence it came ; bat one day, at a "haul
ing," he iufutmed bis neighbors of his
good fortune, and expressed fears that ka
would have to do without a paper soon.
"Xo yon .han't," said James C, in a
loud lone of voice, "for mother sent ou
