An Utterly Improbable Story. BY H. 8. EDWARDS. “William! is the tailor making the clothes?”” He is, sir.” When will they be ready to try on’”’ > wee.”” * Did the tailor seem surprised that I wanted fo many coats?” ty, ‘I suppose Mr. Lavender is ‘ married ’** * No, sir, he didn’t say a word.’ “You told him about the white silk linings and the black silk fucings, and that everything was to be of the very finest material ?”” + I did, sir.’ *: Very well then. you ean go.”* And William left the room Mr. Lavender threw himself on toa sofa (the reader has doubtless observed that heroes al- ways throw themselves on to sofas and into Leds. instead of lying down quietly like other people.) Then after a moment's re - he got up and looked at himself in the aon not admiringly, but inquiringly. for instead of being v he was rather mistrustful of his personal arance. - William '~* William re-appeared. * Did you order the boots?” + Vos, ale.” “ You didn’t forget the patent leathers ?”” = Sir. or the kid boots ?”* * », Sir. ** Did you tell the boot-maker that the patent leathers were to be as polished as the highest steel; in fact that they were to be like black S glass “3 ‘ ~ 1 told him that everything was to be per- feet”? : ** And what did he say?” ~He said you should have the boots to-mor- rew evening.” Sut did he say nothing else 7" : r 1 him that I wanted so many pairs of patent leather boots, and sv many pairs of light calf boots, did he not s “Why, Wil- liam.

He surveyed himself in the glass. first complacently, then critically, and, finally, with a look of anything but appro- bation. “William !”’ “Yes, sir.” «Do I look like an undertaker ¢”” “A little, sir.” ~Do you think a man who is on the point of getting married ought tolook as if he were going to a burial ?** ~-[t does seem strange, *Which is the most = or & black one?” Well. sir, some gentlemen prefers one and some the other.” “Give me out a white waisteoat. Do people wear white waisteoats now, William ‘”’ “Not much, sir. unless they're waiters. I wouldn't like to be seen wearin’ of one myself. The oyster shops is so full of them. and that’s jast where it is.” «You mean to say that if I wear a white waistcoat, I shall look like a waiter at an oys- hs shop, and if a black one, like an underta- ker sir." oming, a white cravat William’: silence seemed to imply consent “But what amI todo' [can’t go out to dinner dressed up like Mr. Wright of the Adel- hia, in a green coat, blue trousers, and yel- ow waisteoust. You don’t know what you are talking about, William.’ Then in a stentori- au voice. and with ® stamp on the ground, be exclaimed ~ Give me my diamond studs.’ William obeyed his master’s mandate with alacrity, for many of the shops were now shut, the carriages were rolling past in the direction of the opera. and the congregation were just coming away from the Wedne«lay evening ser- viees at the hionable chapel. It was evi- dent that the dinner hour was at hand Two months before the period at which the above conversation touk place between Mr. Lavender and his servant, the former, after due reflection, had come to the conclusion that be ought not to remain a bachelor any longer. “What have I been until now’ he said to himself. ave I understood the meanin; and full significance of life’ No: I perm itentirely. I have not understood anything What a wretched career my bachelor’s life has been! What importance have 1? What have IT ever done? have eaten, aud slept, and walked, and slept again—in a d, have been the must empty, e rson that can be imagined. “Ar first time, I see plainly how stupid all persons are who are not married. And yet. when you consider, what 4 number of persons there are in that po- sition! If I were a despot, I think I should issue an edict ¢ elling every vue tv get mar- ried. I would have a single bachelor in all dominion Yy Mr. Lavender’s proje-t of universal and com- pelsory matrimony life a great many theories aud systems of far higher importance, had its real origin in one striking fact. A flash of lightning may be said to have led to the Refor- mation; the full of an apple to Newton’s theory of gravitation; and, in the same way, the sight of Miss Flathers in a blue wreath and a low- necked dress had turned the thoughts of Mr- Lavender towards love, and thence, by a natu- ral and praiseworthy train of reasoning, to warriage © Tmust distinguish myself in her presence.” thought Mr. Lavender. as he placed his hand on the left side of his waistevat, in order. if possible, t» stay the palpitation of his heart. ‘+ [ must distinguish myself in her row and at this very ball; and she will then hear with pride that I have asked her venerable father for her hand.’ And thereupon Mr. Lavender asked if Le might have the honor of dancing with Miss Fiathers, but unfortunately Miss Flathers was engaged Never mind,” whispered Mr. Lavender to himself. ~ I w nee ris-a-ris to her, and she will see that I am always thinking of her. {t's much better than being her partner, for then she would have taken my attentions asa matter of course.” Mr. Lavender went up to the lady of the house. and requested ber to introduce him to a partner. when he was duly presented to one of the ugliest women in the room. Of course, the *- rather plain” ng lady wore the most glar- ing colors, and Lavender could not help contrasting her vulgar form with the sylpb-like figare of Juliana Fiathers. in the course of the quadrille, Mr. Lavender eertainly did distinguish himself in various ways First of all he trod the plain young lady's toes, then he tore a quantity of ta/le frou her dress. Still he stared perpetually at his ers-a-rrs, instead of paying some sort of attention to his partner, which was the more wecessary from the fact that that lady moved about the room with all the maaiveness and and uncertainty of a blind clephant. Finally, there was a collision between the opposite cou- ples, and Miss Flather’s partner felt called upon to remonstrate babe: Mr. Lavender on the strangeness of his conduct The eutleman who had the honor of dancing with Miss Flathers was one Signor Cav: lini, an Italian, who, after balf ruining himeelf in his own country by accepting the management of an opera house. gt Sp to have come to Eng- land to complete the destruction of his fortune Eben + Ing ng on the turf. How the passion could never discover; but it is a fact that Signor Cavallini used to run horses and even to train them himself (which partly explains why they never won ;) and that when- ever you met him, he was alwaya going to buy a patent bit, or had just purchased a newly-in- vented whip. A jockey at the Philharmonic Coucerts, Angelina Bosio at the cattle show. Giuglini in a wager boat, or Mario on the “maintop-gallant-mast’’ of a man of war, would not have been more extraordinary sight than was our friend Cavallini when he took his walks abroad in a cut-away coat, tight-fitting trousers. and © narrow fiat-brimmed hat In face and bearing he was not unlike the said Signor Mario—as the Raphael of tenors usod to look before be had taken to eating and drink- ing—but his outward garb told unmistakably of Newmarket and the » Racing Calendar.” This incongruous personage (who. at a ball, was as magnificent as ey es rietor of a real ut deportrine,) admired Mise Flathers, and by her was admired. She liked him better than everything. but he didn’t like her quite so ak az his horses. We have said that Signor Cavallini was obliged to remonstrate with Mr. Lavender about his proceedings in the quadrille, and. not being an angry man, Mr. Lavender re- ceived that gentleman's suggestions as to his future conduct in the best posaible spirit. “‘Teannot distinguish myself sufficiently ina uadrille.”’ he s: to himself. “I must try the effect of a waltz with the fair Juliana her- self.’ Having thrown her down and trodden upon her. Mr. Lavender raised his partner from the ground, and led her limping to a seat. “You havelamed her,’ muttered the Italian to his unfortunate rival. «I lay you ten to one you dance with her never more.” ~* It was my own fault!” said Mr. Lavender to himself (as if there could have been any doubt about the matter.) ‘I thought it was a waltz. I ought tohave known that they were playing apolka.”’ He resolved to danee no more that night. and, as if to make amends for his recent awkwardness, thought it would be a delicate attention to offer his Nits partner and victim an ice. He contrived to upset half of it over her dress, had sufficient presence of mind left to stammer out a hasty and absurd apol- ogy, and then left the room, counfounding pastry-cooks for making their ices so slippery. He is not quite a fvol,”’ was Signor Cavul- lini’s reflection, when Mr. Lavender had dis- appeared. ‘* He knows when to go.”* The next day Mr. Lavender called to inquire after Miss F ers’s health. --The ice had not given hercold!’’ That was all the informa- tion she could vouchsafe respecting her sani- tary condition. But Captain Flathers, Juliana’s papa, was more polite. He asked his visitor his opinions on various topics, including weather and polities. and professed to agree with him n all points. Finally, he requested him to dine with him the next day but one; and we need hardly say that Mr. Lavender accepted the invitation very readily. [To BE CoNTINUED.] - <—e0e- — = Br Gextve tx Prospenity, ror tax Waert May Tvry.—The New York spondent of the Boston Journal tells the following story : In one of the large and elegant stores not far from the city hall, one of our most celebrated successful and rich firms could have been found 3 few months a, The store was an immense one, and though the head of the firm was re- arded asa smart business man, he was so over- Baar and harsh that there were few persons who could be long in his society. One day a gentleman called on the senior partner of the firm to get him to consent to a se(tlement with a x fellow who had been erushed in the panic, and could not pay more than fifty cents on a dollar. He was received graffy, and recommended to go into the office and read the sign over the desk. He walked in and read the sign, which informed all persons that “the day of compromise is over,’* and the visitor was told that that was the rule of the house, and all their debtors were required tu take notice. and to govern themselves according- ly. No one whoowed that firm had any right to expect that any settiement would be mado short of dollar for dollar. and the “‘poand of flesh, and all that was --nominated iu the bond The gentleman attempted to reason with the firw in regard to the special case before them. but all in vain, and to the intimation that neither of the partners were yet dead. aud be- fore the day of their zepulture, they might seek of their own creditors what they now denied, the chief of the firm gave a loud cluckling laugh at the ridiculousness of the idea that be could fail, or that the great firm of - should ever ask a pecuniary favorofany one. A few months only passed away, and down came the great house with a crash that jarred all New York! The failure was a yery bad one. Immense debts. both in Europe and America, bung over it, and one of the partners who at the time the New York merchant asked merey for a poor debtor, could have sold his interest in the firm for $50,000, has received nothing. and the pros- peet is that is all the dividend trom the estate that he will finally get. The ungrateful ser- vant in the parable, who grabbed hisdebtor by the throat and said, ‘pay me what thou owest,”” than one example in New York. e A New Way to Raise tHe Winp.—On Tues- day evening Hugh Masterson, Aid to the Gen- eral Superintendent, arrested Prescott Fitz- allen, late proprietor of the “Broadway Belle,”’ “The Wag,” --The Coquette,” and other flash sheets, on a charge of swindling people by means of matrimonial advertisements. It is alleged that Fitzallen procured a couple of very pretty girls, and then advertised in the Herald for some parental gentleman to adopt them, be alleging his inability to provide for their wants. Gentleman would respond, and ask for an interview, which would be grauted The parties would then make an appointment to meet at an up town hotel. Fitzallen would play the unele, tell how much he regreited parting with bis nieces, and only hope that they might full into fatherly hands. Nieces who are represented to be the most beautiful girls in New York, would look very shy and shed tears at parting with their dear friend. Gentleman would full in love, and conelude that the lovely girls should be placed under his eare. Accordingly he would remove them to his residence. In «short time, they would over their bashfulness, and become quite fre: Gentleman delighted! Gentleman might even congratulate himself over and over again on his good fortune. He might be a married man, but then even the mother of us all gave way in an evil houf to temptation. But before he fell, and just in time to save him. the ‘“‘un- ele’’ might rash in. and accuse him of attempt- ed seduction. Gentleman would beg all so of pardon, but get no sort of relief short of a couple hundred dollars. Or perhaps the nieces would become indignant at their new protec- tors freedom. ani leave the house, when threatening missives would be sent and money- demanded. Mr. Henry Simpson was one of the victiins, and lost considerable through the nieces. A southera planter lost $300, and sev- eral New Yorkers were well bled, more indeed than will ever expose themselves by coming forward. On Fitzallen’s persons were various letters, written by the “nicees” to foolish lov ers, $200 in money, copies of the * Belle,’’ ~Coquet aod many ocher papers, and many other articles. He was he!d fur examination N.Y. Express aneerteermenntest eee Nosopy —The verdict in the ense of the late horrible accident on the Great Western (Can- ada) rail is “nobody to blame.” Of course not. It is Nobody that is esternally to blame. It was Nobody that drove the train at the rate of thirty miles an hour, on a dark night, over 4track inundated by a freshet. But for No- body, the cars would not have pitched into the chasm created by that freshet. and sacrificed many valuable lives. It is about time that Nobody was discharged from railway employ- ment, and Somebody installed in his place. N.Y. Bzpress, a ee ad ON RSEYER WANTED SCS ores, | RR GRAND panacea ‘Star.
