Sales have'late ly ranged from ten to fifteen 'Millions weekly, fre quently exceeding three Millions daily, and it is well known that the Secretary of the Treasury has ample aid unfailing resources in the Duties. on imports and Internal Revenues, and in the issue of ' the Interest bearing Legal Tender Treasury' Notes. it is almost a certainty that he will'not find' it ne cessary, for a Ling time to come, to seek a market for env other long or permanent.

WALTER GRANTLEY'S REVENGE. The wholesale dry good's store of Savage & Co., was one of the most extensive in the city, and of course boasted of a large number of clerks. Among them were two young wen of nearly the same age, which we have selected to figure as the two principle characters in our story. Their names were Walter Grantley and George Pill, and both on equal footing in the establishment. Walter Grantley was a whole souled young man, and as earnestly devoted to his avocation as any other man in the city. Knowingly, he would not injure any person under any consideration, but pursued an upright course to all, especially to his employers by whom he was highly esteemed. George Hill was also devoted to his business, and held in confidence of his patrons. He possessed an unbJunded stock of ambition, which unfortunately, would not stop at all tiwes within the strict bounds of honesty.— He often said that nothing of an ordinary na ture would stop him in the course he had marked out for himself in his•liine of business and advancement. But at the time we date our story, he fancied .an obstacle was in his path, and that obstacle was Walter Grantley. Proprietors. New Haven, Ct One of the head clerks had given notice that he was about to leave the establishment to enter another firm as a partner. This would occasion a desirable vacancy, and either he or Walter would be advanced to that post. Re was convinced that no other in- the store possessed the requisite knowledge and ability ; se there was but one who stood between him and this much coveted position. At this position of affairs, he would not have hesitated to have managed to lay blame of some sort upon his rival, had he not. thought that he at least stood an equal chance with him; but he did not, as a few days later he discovered. About a week before the bead clerk was to leave, George overheard the members of the firm discussing his and Walter's, merits, and, after a somewhat lengthy discussion, heard them arrive at the conclusion to bestow the situation upon his rival. He listened until the conversation was concluded, and then slunk away to form some plan for the downfall of his J. W. IiARR companion. • Some three days after he had overheard the decision of his employers, he requested an in terview with them. It was granted during the day, and George made known his business. "What I have to say, sirs, pains me very much, yet I (eel it my daty to make you aware of a piece of information that has recently been made known to me. It is of one connec ted with this house, else I should not trouble myself about it,." "Whom does it concern ?" inquired Mr Savage. "Indeed, what of him ? we have always con sidered him one of our most trusty clerks : h.}nest, steady, and wholly devoted to his busi• ness. W hat have you learned of him ?" "That he frequents a noted•gambling saloon on A- street." '3clectl l 4ctrii. FADED LEAVES I= Illiscethincous. "Your clerk, Walter Grantley." B ER 29, 1863. NO 40 "Frequents a gambling house ! I can hard ly believe that. I could almost have sworn that he never saw the inside of such a place in his life." I=lll "And yet I have information of a positive chartleter that such is the case." "Perhaps your information was not trust- worthy." "I could willingly have believed that; but to-day all doubts were dissipated, when he asked me to accompany him t here to-night." "What answer did you wake him?" "That I never frequented such places." "Do you think he will go there to-night ?" '•I think he will. Such was his intention." "Than it is decided," said Mr. Savage, ris ing. , "I will visit the place tonight, and make sure with my own eyes that he is addicted to this terrible vice. We bad thoughts of ad vancing him to the head clerkship, but it will never do, if what you state be true." • "It is truth, sir, as you will know to night, if you enter the saloon." "Thank you fur the information, but speak to no one of it at present." So the interview ended. Let us go back in our story some three lours. Walter and George obtained their dinners at a restaurant close by, and were in th• habit of taking it at the same table. That day, while at dinner, George observed "By the way, Walter, do you know Dick Henley ?" "Of course I do. He and I are warm. riends." "1 am quite intimtae with him, also. But did you know that he was addicted to 'gam bling?" "Impossible." "It is too true." "Are you sure ?" "Yes. I heard it from a friend, but would hardly believe it ; so, last night, I went to the saloon in A street, and caught him in the very act, and, did my best to get him away, with me, and after a time succeeded. A trio of fellows were there who were determined to fleece him, and were angry with toe for coax ing him away. I tried to extort a promise from him that he would not go there again to night; but he said that he had promised to, but this one time should be the last. I wish Walter, that you would go there to-night, and try to prevent his playing. I would go but I have other business that will admit of no de lay." "I never was inside a gambling saloon in my life, and I do not much fancy going there." "I do not blame you for that; but there would be no harm in going there. I pity Dick, that's dll." -So do I, and if my going will serve to pre vent his losing money and reputation, I will , go. But keep still on this, George, for I should nob want it to get around that I was seen in such a place." "You may rely on my discretion, Walter. Thus ended the conversation on the subject but George knew that the dictates of his rivel's generous heart would prompt him to go as he had wished. And so his plot came out as he had meant it should. . Walter went, but he found no friend there. In the Course of the evening Mr. Savage looked, and seeing Walter moving among the players; no longer doubted, and the reknit was that George Hill was promoted to the head clerkships and no one save a comrade of' his, was aware of his little plot to accomplish his ends. Walter though disappointed and annoy id at the coolness of his employers, which he im agined was without a cause, retained his place for a few months, and then was taken into partnership with an uncle. As the years went on, proAperity attended his efforts in the city to which he had removed. About a year after his leaving Savage & Co.. an acquaintance who had possessed the secret of George Hill told him of the part of his former friend had played ; but Walter had dis dained to retaliate, as he was now doing much better than he would have done had he gained the place he coveted in the house of Savage & Co, Ten years had rolled around since the first incident of our sketch transpired. One bit ter cold day in December, Walter Grantly sat before the open gate in his couuting room. Re bad prospered well, and now an opulent merchant. To-day •be was thinking of the pest, and wondering what had become of his quondam friend, George Rill—for, some years * ADVERTISING - RATES.

He was dressed in a rusty suit of black, and his face was wan and thin, as if he felt all the blight ing curse of proverty. He seemed to hesitate to speak, and at last the merchant said— " Well, sir, what can I do for you today f" "Can you give me work ?" "What can you do ?" "Anything about the store. Book-keeping would be preferred; but anything that will keep my family and myself from starvation. There was something in his voice that sound ed very natural lib the merchant, and he asked, "What is your name?" "George Hill," was the reply. "And I am• Walter Grantley." George Hill started as if he had received a blow. "Walter Grantley ! Then I can have no hope here; and he turned to go. "Stop, George. I know all about that little plot of yours, and have long since forgiven you. lam in want of a clerk, and you shall have the place. What do you say, will you accept it ?" "I do not deserve this of you, Walter," said he humble man, in a tremulous voice. "Never mind that; but why did you leave your old place?" "A confident of mine, to whom I had dis closed the secret of my plot, informed them of it, and they discharged me." "Well never mind, it is all settled and for- given now." A better clerk than Ms repentant enemy, Walter Grantley never had, and this was his revenge Repine not if you see others better fed than yourself.
