About this time there was- a new.arti

when we perceived that house whicf.

looked down the street. as if she expected
some one from teat civartee 3~ she

each made dueobeisance to her extraor
dinary loveliness. Who cJuld she be?
was the inquiry whinh sugzest.....d itself to
both.

Aurora De G-urtnan ? And even the
creation of Le Sage could not have been
half so divine as the Aurora before us.
The nest delideraturn was to procure
an introduction, There were sreelly

OOIMERSPORT, POTTER COUNTY, PA., WEDNESDAY:, OCTOBER 16, 1.1061.
'Well, my friends, bow passes time with
you ? With me it seems to hurryl along
as, rapidly as a railroad carriage; if every
week had fourteen days, and every day
eight-and-forty hours; I should 'not !even
then be able to accomplish One l lirtlf of
What I undertake. Still, in the husiest
life there ire moments of leisure, and as
even these ought to be turned to tiprof
imble purpose, you shall now have anoth
er. hint from Old Humphrey. -
}lrony of you know London eity,lbut as
• toi knowing a hundredth, part of the
strand things which take place there,
that is quite out of the question.l My
method is, when witnessing a multiplicity
of odd occurrences, to treat; them as ; I do
blackberries—l pass by a great many, and
. pick out only those that I like, best.
I . , Whoever 'has been in London in the
' fruit season must have beard men, women
and children_ crying out in alt directions,
"Hautb‘s y s, fine hautboys."
Tts,
. - e hautboys are large strawberries,
!sold are sold in baskets called potties,
which, tapering from the top, go off less
and lesser to the bottom. ' I
I was passing along, on a hot day, when
a pile of these pottle.sin a fruiterers shop
caught my attention. There was one of
particularly fine fruit, and I soon; had a
held of it ; but the man cried out in a
hurry, • , Stop, stop, sir I I cannot sell
them." 1 '
"Cannot sell them !" said I, " and for
what reason ?"
• . ;"Oh," replied he, "I cannot sell! them,
for,they amtgpers." i ,
Now,, these toppers were the !argest
'sized s t raw-erries, picked out on I pur
-1 pese to put on the tops of the other OA ;
Ities, to maie the fruit look better than it
really was. "Come," thinks Ito myself,
"if'you will not let we have the teppers,
you cannot hinder me from taking away
the lesson they have taught me."; ISo I
walked off, talking to myself about the
toppers.
I ,
At-the corner of the next street; at a
1 draper's shop, some .dozens of goodilook-'
(dog handkerchiefs were hanging 'at the
;door and marked at the low price of four
pence each. Throking this was kit) bad
opportunity of lasing in a stock of lialf-a
dozen or a dozen good handkerchiefs, for,
la worthy but poor friend, I entered the'
!shop, but was told that they onlyi,sold '
