THE LUCKY HAND. I'll tell you the queerest thing that ever happened to me in business. One evening, about twenty years ago, I was going home along the City Road to my own house at Pentonville Hill. It was near the-end of December. I had staid balancing accounts in my office some time after the Stock Ex change closed. A frosty nightorrith a hall fog in it, had fallen • and thornless& rath er valuable pocket iiook safelt buttoned up in the breast pocket of my :greet mat, for I had that day sold five hundred Weitt ern Canal shares', which, in common with ell such property. the railways were rapid ly bringing down. They belonged to one of my best cusknners, had beenadvantage ously disposed ofr, and I was carrying home the bank notes, thinking my ore house was a safer place than the office, as the gentleman had not pleased to mention his banker. The City Road is not a soli tary place at SP. M. I walked on, sum ming up the day's transaction and the probabilities of the morrow, b irking tw o the windows of all newsmen and stationers for the evening papers 1 thought most re liable, and oec.isionally seeing that my great coat was securely buttoned. I was eterieed in the latter occupation within sight of that notable inn, the An gel, Islitigoiti, when I became cionecious of being watched and followed by a man who seemed determined to keep ha eye on me. His dress and appearance Lelooged to the. shabby-respectable ; himself and every thing around him looked as if they had seen better days. His figure was tall and thin, his face long and sharp; his hair was perfectly gray, yet '1 felt convinced that his years did not much exceed my own, and I was then on the sunny tdthi of fifty. It was strange, too, that he • .e no at tempt at concealing his pmt's , wt.. ; t o .. clee4, there wits nothing sly . it. looking :boat the nran„,.. pocket book to take care of ;am as we riviched a quieter ported' the roadekirting the New River Company's Water Works, I resolved to let him know he was observed. by turning abruptly and facing, him to the full light of a street lamp. Had it been any description of woman hood, instead of a gray haired and evident ly not well-to-do man, I should have gone home to Mrs. Ittigly more puffed up with vanity and self e4 , teceit than the honest wo man was' aecustonost to lint me, tor the host dressed specimen of leouty and Guth ioti in all Itelgravia conlil not have been greeted with a gaze of ereater mdmiration and delight than that ho bestowed on my temp (-More(' whiskers almost carroty hair. Was the man mad, or making game of tae ? eomehovr, lie did not look to be either ; there wa-s an 31)114.1w:thee or perfect ~.,g elest ne se a n d sincerity in his ilemon• orations, :is if his whole heart was in the business, and he neither thought nor ear ed for anything else. "Do you do anything in the Stock. E xchange, sir ?" said he. before I could m a k e up my mind what proceedings to take. "Yes," said I, astonished out of all my caution. "Why do you ask 7" "Because, sir. I want a little business done in that way. It's not tnueh, but I'll pay you any commission I can ;" and be pressed so near that I laid nay had on my breast buttons.

"You'll lose your money." said }, "the line will never pay?' "It will pay, and I won't lose !" said the man, his eye kindling with a fire so bright and wild that it ni:Ole the think of the conclusions over night. "I don't care if 1 let, you, though some people might think it. silly to believe in such things, that I had a dream about that railway, sir. My uncle was a first rake I speculator, a Lancashire man, one of the earliest that came out for George Stephen ' son ; you have heard of him, Perhaps ;" and he named a gentleman well known in in the first railway war, but then-deceased for some years. "He brought me up, and would have left rue his shares in the North western, but I displeased him by marry ing against Ilia will, anti my uncle never forgave anybody. I don't repent that yet ; my wife's the beet woman in the world, and a prettier face f never saw ; but we've been poor sir, very poor, and nothing has succeeded with me, though I have t ile d a Pod : Many thing's. When my uncle died: lave yaws ago, he left hie shares, hank stock anti all, to a housekeeper he hiul.— I'm told they're Liverpool gentry now ; but I had nut seen him forseventeen years, till one night last month. I had a dream: it meal have been near daybreak. The old man appeared to come into my room, look ing as he used to do often we were good friends, and bririgiug with him a person whom I never saw before. `Torn,' said he, 'this gentleman is a stook broker ; get him to buy you three hundred sharp,' in the —Railway. and you'll be a rich ; Man before seven years.' He said a few More words whit+ don't matter just at pisent, then walked away ; and I woke up ad sure of the whole business that l struck a light, and looked nmund the room for the man he had brought, till poor Sally thought I had lost my judgment. The dream oc tuned every night for a week after. I got. up all the money I could mutter, and went over to „I..ontion, looking for the stock broker, but I never saw hint till yesterday evening, when I was going home ; and, sir, you are the very man my uncle bro't with: him. I would know your face among twenty thousand, and, it' you will buy me the shares, it will be better for us both." Mrs. Rugly, at least, gave- me credit for sense and thecretion ; but the singular story, the fact that. he had recognized me, anti the man's own faith in his doeun, made me give up reasoning against the Scotch Railway, and consent to buy the shares. They hail another fall that very Jay s and, knowing they were still in the descending line, I bought them in slowly, so that by the end of the week the tine° Alamitosl titans-, were secured with little more than the contents of my friend's packet book, The min had interested me. You perceive it is possible to interest even a stook broker ; and. while buying up the shares I made inquiries, after his antece dents. There was not a broker in the Ex c'enge who could not tell me something ' ' i hiszkiilol theft accauate con fi rmed as omen— int he Mid tirlisirii (model many slings, and mimeo/led mu nothing.

There were tales of stock-hrokers who had made their fortunes mind those of their custom ers, liy the guidance of that curious rule. As the natural anima:wenn+ of so much ill luck and determination to speculate, I also taunt that he Was in the habit. of owing and borrowing. and that his funds and his Crean were now at a very low ehb. Nobody could imagism wher • he got the hundred ' posseds, ex "rept ri out Itis relations in 'Att e:whirr, on a pronaive to embark for Aus tralia. which safe distance their united endeavor,' had not been eufficieet to send him and his wile, though employed to that t o u t tor the lust ten yeArs.

"I bet your pardon; Mr. Rugly ; it would be a great pleasure to my wife and me ; in fact, we are too poor acquaintances for you. But don't come, sir, don't come to our house at all. After what.the old man said, that might ft true, as, well as the rest of the dream.' 4.lffirnar, did the I d num say , Mr. Raz worth ?" said 1, I tog down my pot with say whole stock otdotennination.

They had re m ved from Cummin street to a humbler 1 ging in Cleikenwell, and his wife was ing in plain work. To say the truth, I l no wish to we the poor man. In spite o his dream, the Railway had gone tarty and totally to the dogs ; th - e most sanguine speculators pronounced it a bad job ; its shares were declared to he nowhere at all ; and many' a time Mrs. Rugly and I lamented over poor Raxworth and his three hundred. In the clues of one's family, and the ups and downs of one's business, time slips sway wonderfully. It was five years after I had bought the shares ; there had been a panic, bad times, a settling down and clearing up again, when, to the amazement of the whole Stock Exchatoso, there was a reeurhsction of the - Railway. Some body from Glasgow had taken it in hand. The gentleman had a large capital and rich cousins. The newspapers began to talk of what immense utility the line would be to the northern towns and the agricultural district/4 ; the shares came into the rinirket and wept up every day. Where was Raxworth eiluld not make out, one day he appeare.l in my office, looking grayer and more shabby than ever, but with the wine earnest eves. "They're going up, Mr Ftugly wrie. him 61.4 gnlutation. ••Yes," said I. -You will get back your hundred pounds yet." "(jet busk ety hundred pounds'" he screamed, for his voice had grown strange ly cracked and shrill. "VII make my for tune: didn't the 01(1 man say IL? Have Sally and I lived pour and pinched, want ing coal in winter, and leer An summer, all these years, only to get bark a hundred pounds! No, Mr. Rugby, I won't sell out until they come to cent. percent. at least.:' No arguments could shake that rersdu bon, and I did not try to do it ; the mat ter was beyond my t'abielt'ottrt experience ; but for once Raxvrorth was not mistaken. -The shares went up higher and higher-- such a run upon a railway was never known. At last they reached rent. per rent., and then he sent me a brief note to sell out immediately, and buy him six hundred shares in the Southwestern. Rax worth had got above my reasoning. Hence forth I obeyed his mandates a d,hout (pies and they always came by post.

I was aware of his having a considerable deposit in the Bank of England, beside owning railway stock ton greater amount ; yet when I saw him again, Raxworth looked as shabby, as care worn. mad as earnest as he had looked when 1 was goir g to congratulate him on the prospect of getting back his hundred pounds. lie settled with me liberally, promised the continuance of his patronage, told me be had bought the grounds for his holise overlooking Dirkenhead, and that Sally and he would enjoy their money; but hocould not understand her, she was grow ing so strange-like and taking on so many odd ways.. To bring my story to an end, it turned the 'sudden itAiesslidi of iireslth, after much long poverty mad frequent dis aptiointinent, upset poor Mrs. Itaxworth's brain.

Once, after a long reckoning. he tusked me if, the old man had not spoken true in his dream. "I p o ly," said he, "we did not understand it right about Sally but that could not be helped, and nothing can, Mr. tingly. Never mind, 1 hav e a great respect for you. because I know you to be a lucky band." That was all I ever heard him say on the subject which had troubled him so much in his poverty-iuneken days, when he begged noi not to come to the house nor have anything to do with them, lest his uncle's prophesy about the tuttin g of sally Should come to pass. l suppose tiee kill ing of.. her mind by the fortune which came ttirouift me must have been the propei ut terpretatton of the dream, if it had any, and was mit all a downright invention of Una wort h's fancy. running, as it alwaysilid, on stooks shares.

Address of the Democratic State Executive Committee. Ta lite Democracy of Pennsylvotia : It a duty once more to address you, before the final vote for President of the United States. It. is enabled to do so now, with a consciousness that, every sacrafice of pri vate feeling having been made, the Demo cratic party is once more united in the sup port of the regularly nominated electoral ticket, which, in its aggregate, represents the public sentiment of Pennsylvania, ad verse to Sectionalism and faithful to the Union and the Constitution. The of of the State Committee now i. to invoke fur that ticket a zealous and active support. Such a support given in ••very county of the State may reverse the th•tcut 01 the State election, and, even if it does not, will save the Democratic party from the disintegration which an apparent aharidoeinent of its flag would seem to threaten, and which our ancient enemies so much ileinre. If the Democratic party or Petiu.sylvat.is mil be demoralised - and broken to pieces, the permanent success of the inereeniiry crowd now forming the People...* or Republican party, will be se cured, and the State, which is mote sub stantially Democratic than any one in the Union, be handed over fora series of years to the control of those whose policy is alien to its true interests—the policy against which the Democratic party has so long and so resolutely contended. A thorough organization and afu vote of the Democracy at the Presidential elec tion, is important for other reasons. linoxitiated by one victory, won mainly through the unhappy differences of the Democracy—sure, without effort, of anoth other in Noreniber—the leaders of the Re publican p.O ty are meditating and exten sive export of Pennsylvania voters into the neighboring States, especially in New Jersey and Deleware, where the contest is very close. Not wanted, as they think, here, they will be very , serviceable there. Let this fraud be frustrated, if possible, by such activity . on our part, as will compel our adversaries to remain at home. It max be, ahead& the attempt at' eeltinixtor her persisted in, that Pennsylvania can now be redeemed. But there is a higher and stronger Ince tivM to action. Every Democratic vote cast in November—every vote, indeed, against the Republican ticket—is a vote for the Constitution, the Union, and for the rights and property and safety of our Southern brethern, and swells the great conservative body, which, whether it be at the time a ninjority or miniority, now stands as the only barrier to sectionalism and fan aticism. Should Mr. Lincoln he elected, and his administration prove, as we fear it Will, to be animated by the aggressive spir it of anti-slavery fanaticism, and threaten still more the well ascertained rights of any portion of the Union, the Democratic party of Pennsylvania will be the great eonstitutent of the constitutional opposi tion, which must check and control the lxecutiie. It is all important that ths elements of such an opposition should de velope themselves at the polls now. Such detnonstration of Northern Denaocratit sentitnent, even if it should not insure vic tory, m2i'y ultimately save the Union, bt showing to theSoutb how many true friend they have in the North, and especially it. those Middle States, which are the truer and most loyal to the Constitution. Le it be remembered that when, in 1854, th storm of kindred fanaticism& broke upo Pennsylvania, the Know Nettling sxind date was elected by an overwhelming Mb jority ; anal yet, in less than two years, f: niticism died out as suddenly as it arose and the Detnoeratic 'Party, true to its pile chases—faithful, even in disaster, to it -ttuetard—resunieal its influence anal pre dominance in the State. No it will be now All depend. on activity, on coacert, ot. honorable and magnanimous forgetfulness , of past ditterences. Let any one who hint at their revival, what sticks to excite *gait, any unkind feeling among Democrats, IA marked as an enetny to Ids country and to immediate me:taunt/4 to secure a full vot. of the Denutermic party, even in district.. %there local success is impracticable, for r,•utcmber that in November, every vote in the great result and that every t)emoer,►t w atop► at home, expresses his d. pair of the Republic, and practically votes with the enemies of the Union and the ( ;institut ion.
