VOL. IX. ta" A series of sketches, “involving a de- sign upon the reader's risibles,’’ written some years ago for a literary paper with which he was then connected, by one of the Srar’s present editorial corps, have since been doing the State some service in newspaper columns, but of course getting some hard knocks in their travels. One of these, as revamped by a Michigan pa- per, has just turned up in the *‘ Editor’s draw- er’’ of Harper's Magazine, with such a lop-sided look that its author in common justice feels it his duty to set the bantling on its legs once more : GETTING « FITS" IN A CLOTHING STOR BY CROSBY S. NOYES. Lewiston Falls, Maine, is a place, itis! You can’t exactly find it on the map, for it has been located and incorporated since Mitchell's latest, but it’s there—n manufacturing city, as large as life, with banks, barber-shops, newspapers. and ali the usual fixtures and appurtenances of a locomotive go-abead Yankee settlement. Just about the newest thing in the new city. is a new, cheap clothing store that “riz up,” or “ rained down,” lately, on the Jonah’s gourd or Alladdin’s palace principle, and which by the same mysterieus dispensation became en- dowed with a couple of the cutest Yankee sales- men that the Dirigo State ever turned out. T’other day an up river young ’un who is about to forsake father and mother, and cleave unto his Nancy Ann, came down to get his wedding suit, and was of course “‘ jest naterally baound to find his way into the newclothingstore. Not that he sauntered in with the easy swagger of the town-bred searcher after cheap clothing, fur the vernal tint was tolerable fresh on him yet, and he stopped to give a modest rap at’ the | door. He had effected an entrance at the grist mill and at the “ Journal” office, where he had been doing business, in the same unobtrusive manner, and the boys all agreed that Mr. Ne- hemiah Newbegin was from * the Gulley,’ and waa paying his virgin visit to ‘- Pekin. y Nehomish was let in “‘ imecjitly,”’ and he was — by the cordial reception he met with. proprietors were ready to “forward his | suit’ at once, if he “saw ft’’ orthey would “take measures’’ and * furnish him toorder.’’ Nehemiah drew a handbill from the top of his hat. and spread it upon his knee for easy refer- ence. It was headed in fat Gothic letters:— “ Wister Croruixe at Cost!” And set forth that in consequence of the milkdness of the season, over five hundred thous- and dollars worth of ready made clothing was to be closed up and sold out at an “Exorwovs Sacririce!!!’? A list of priees followed, and Nehemiah run- ning his stumpy fingers down the column, lit with em is on a particular item. “Say '—v'ye got enny of these blew cotes left, at five dollars ‘nd five n’af ‘nd six dollars, —got enny on ‘em left?”’ “* Smith, are there any of those cheap coats left?** enquired the ~‘ perlite”’ Mark of his part- ner, “‘ we sold the last this morning, did we not?” Smith understands the cheap clothing busi- ness. and answered promptly, * All gone, sir!’” «* Jest s'I expected.’ murmured the disap- pointed candidate. ‘darnation seize ’t all, [ told dad they'd be all gone '”* “* We have a very superior article at ten dol- lars—” “Beacely, Squire, seacely ‘—ten dollars is an all-fired price for a cote /’’ « We can make you one to order.”’ “¥-es! but I want it xcow—want it rite strut off—fact ia, Squire, I must hev’ an.” ~ You'd find those cheap at ten dollars.”’ “Dan know baout'it' Say, v'ye got enny of these dewrabie doeskin trowsers left, at tew dollars; sold them all tew, spect. haint ye? hbaint none o’them left nuther, bev'ye?”’ Luckily there were a few left. and Nehemiah was advised to sceure a pair at once.

Nehemiah deived away im; tuously amidst a stack of two or three hundred pairs, and finally his eyes rested upon @ pair of lengthy ones, real blazers, with wide yellow stripes running each way. twinkling. He liked them—they were long and yellow—they were just the thing, and he proceeded at once to try them on. The new clothing store bas a nook curtained off for this purpose, therein The pants had straps, and the Straps were buttoned ;—now Nehemiah had seen straps be- fere, but the art of mana; ing them was a wys- tery, and like Sir Patrick's dilemma, ‘required & mighty dale of nice consideration.” Grst, he sccordingly drew on his Bluchers, mounted a chair, elevated the pants ata proper Sugle, and endeavored to coax his legs into them. He had atime of it. His boots were houe of the smallest. and the pants, though long. were none of the widest; the chair, too, was ricketty and bothered him, but, beudin; his energies to nap gre he succeeded in induct- ‘ng one leg into the *- pesked thi: rr as straddled fixe the pe Laton of Khales, Seana = the act of saison the other foot, when @ ispering and giggling, in his immedi Vicinity, made bim rs to the appalling fact that nothing bat a thin curtain of chintz sepa- rated bim from twenty or thirty of the Prettiest and wickedest girls that were ever caged in one shop' Nehemiah was @ bashful youth, and would have made a circumbendibus of a mile any day. rather than meet those girls, even had he been im full dress; us it was, his moath Was ajar at the bare possibility of making his Sppearance amongst them in his present dis- hal lle. | What if there was « hole in the cur- win!

The chair collapsed with a sudden “ serunch,”’ pitching Nehemiah head over heels through the curtain, and he made his grand entrance among the stitching divinities, on all fours, like a fettered rhinoceros. Perhaps Collier himself never exhibited a more striking groupe of tablean x vivantes than was nowdisplayed. Nehemiah wasa ‘“ model,”’ every inch of him, and though not exactly “revolving on a pedestal,”’ he was going through that movement quite as effectually on his back, kicking, plunging, in short, personi- fying in thirty seconds all the attitudes ever “chiselled!"’ “As for the girls, they sereamed, of course, jumped upon chairs and the cutting board, threw their hands over their faces, peeped through their fingers, screamed in, and declared “they should die, they snew they should !"’ “*Oh Lordy !’* blubbered the distreased young ’un, “don’t holler so, gals, don’t!

This was the unkindest cut of all. he goose had been heated expressly for thick cloth seams, and the way it sizzled in the seat of the new ts was afilicting to the wearer. Nehemiah riz up in an instant, and seizing the source of ail his troubles by the slack, he tore himself free from all save the straps and some pantalet-like fragments that hung about his ankles, as he dashed through the door of the emporium, at a two-forty pace. Nehemiah seemed to yearn with the poet for “a lodge in some vast wilderness,” and betrayed a settled parpees to “ flee from the busy haunts of men,”’ or the last seen of him he was caper up the railroad-outting like a seared ‘rabbit, The rays of the declining sum flickering and dancin, upon a broad expanse of shirt-tail that fluttered | gaily in the breeze, as he headed for the nearest oe Tue Nationa Horen Porsoyixe.—We have a patient from the immediate vicinity of this hotel—a very common-sense man and a house- keeper—who assures us that his premises were overrun with rats from the hotel; dozens of them might be seen at almost any hour of the day in the yard ; indeed, they were so numer- ous as to be incredible, and a man from this city was sent for to poison them. He did so, and what he used it is not very probable he told. Those ingenious philosophers are not apt to communicate their secrets. The rats all dis- appeared. My patient tells me not one is visi- ble on his premises, and they were in numbers 80 incredible that he would not venture to say; but we know, for we have been there and seen them in the hotel yard. He.had a servant who had been employed at the hotel, and she told him that it was known to all the other servants that a great number of dead rats were taken from the water tank, which was used for cook- ing, and other honsehold urposes! This was ublished at the time. fy is doubtless true; ur a rat's instinet, after eating arsenic, will lead him to the top of a honse to get water; and nothing is easier than for them to get in a r tank. No other person than those who ate at the hotel were utiected, although that sewer opens directly before the room, and under the | doors and windows of a telegraphic office, where sixteen gentlemen are constantly operating. That this National Hotel epidemie should have been confined solely to one house, and have produced the set of symptoms it did, with- outa ifie or material poison acting on the stomach and its appendages 1s absurd. Arsenic, | mechantcally diffused trom the decayed rats. | and slowly acting on the stomach, is sufficient | toaccount forall thesymptome. —N.¥.

Then with a sponge and chilled water wipe off the least impurity from the mouth and chin, rub it dry with a clean cloth, unswathe the pa- | tient. and pet itin a quiet, warm, comfortable place for about an hour and a half. Do not give food or drink during that time. As in hu- nan beings. it is necessary to watch the effect of your medicine. You must make a tempo- | rary hospital of some unused, uncarpeted room, with a fire, as warmth is half the cure, and every creature in illness requires it more than at other times. Have a comfortable bed for your patient, leave a dish of water in case of thirst (where it would not be pernicious.) and do not allow any one but yourself to enter, as quiet and sleep are nature’s own and best rem- edies ; without them there is no cure. AFFECTING Scrne.—Death of a Young Girl 1 the Cars.—A letter to a western editor relates the following very aifecting scene, of which the writer Was an eye-witness : ‘At Michigan City, where we changed cars, we observed them moving a sick girl The party consisted of a brother of about 20 years, asister of about 16, and the mother.
