EE I a STEN TOO KEEN BY HALF. 2 There are many persons victimized in the community, who. if all the facts conserning the losses were known, would meet with little sym- pathy from honest men. The keen tools with which they were striving to operate upon others are only turned against themselves by some scamp more cute than themselves, and they have no right to complain if their fingers are cut. There is a certain class of knaves who under- stand human nature so well that they are en- abled to fleece less cunning and meaner rogues by exciting their eupidity. Prominent among this class are the sharp gentry in saiior clothes who go about offering for sale silk dress patteras which they can sell at astonishingly dow prices because they have smuggled them through the Custom House. The bait takes, and the buyer who has no seraple at being made an aecessory to swindling the government, finds himself or herself in possession of “cotten back” goods, for which he or she has paid about two prices Other knaves of this class operate upon a still more dishonest set of customers. and ote tempt them to buy bogus jewelry and sham silver ware by a bold imtimation that the articles can be heap because they are stolen. The vic- ti nsuch eases are entitled to about as much sympathy as any other receivers of stulen goods who are overreached. ° A few dayssince a maneailed at the Mayor's office aud made complaint that he had been swindled out of one hundred dollars by a per- son whose description answered that of the smuggler of goods purchased with the legacies of rich relatives. The complainant stated that he had saved a little money, and being anxious to turn it to the best possible accoount, he ad- vertised for offers. Among the numerous re- plies which such an advertisement would nat- urally bring forth, was one from an individual who proposed to put the capitalist in the way of doubling his money forthwith. This was too good a chance to be neglected. and the posses- sor of spare funds called upon the financier who could desks money so rapidly. The financier proved to be a very nice, gentlemanly sort of a man and very smovth spoken, who, after beat- ingabout the bush for a time told his visitor that he knew where gold coins, “five carats fine,” could be procured at the rate of $250 for 3100 genuine stuff. The business had to be managed very privately, of course, and the specalator could only be permitted to go to with- in a certain distance of the place where the first elass imitations were to beobtained. The bait took, the avarious flat banded oat a bandred dollars, and accompanied the sharper to a given point. where he was left to wait for the return of his original investwent, with the ad- dition of 150 per ceut. It is scarcely necessary to say that the smvoth-tongued gentleman has not yet returned. The specimen coins shown the dupe were, without doubt, genuine, and no- body will pity him for the loss he sustajned through his owneupidity. Honesty is the best Policy. — Phil. Bulletin. ‘ wee -_— Notes on the Dates, Figs. and Olives im our Southeru States. ~ ~ A Traveler from the Eastern Hemisphere” communicates the following to the New Orleans Balletin We are wont to imagine Florida covered with swamps wad evergiades, yet, in reality, it is what ils name purports to be, a most blooming and fertile country. Unfortunately, the trop- ical climate of this State demands a mode of life and husbandry far different from what our people are generally used to. This is the real cause of the dissatisfaction which out migratory population hitherto has shown to a State whuse geographical position is not less valuable for commercial purposes than slimate and soil are for agricultura A party in Philadelphia lately tried to in- troduce the cultivation of the coffee shrubs in the Key Islands. but was refused by the Fed- eraj authorities the cession of the lands re- quired. It seems the cramped state of finances iu Washington does not allow the encourage- ment of the home production of a produce whieh forms such an important item in the revenue of the Confederation. But there are other fruits already cultivated in Fiorida and the neighboring States, say the fig, the olive tree and the date palm. which offer greater ehances than even the coffee on the low Key Islands. The Florida figa and olives rank with the beat of the old world, but are not turned toa roper account, the Floridians not yet having fie upon the idea to dry and pack, Smyrna fashion, their costly fruits, nor to extract salad vil from their olives. True the duty on figs has been lowered considerably of late, but there is an item of import the Smyrna traders cannot overcome, this is the heavy loss their fruits undergo by deterioration on the voyage, and which at afair average roaches 25 per cent. Out of a hundred fruit vessels which annually visit the Mediterranean, two-thirds go out in ballast; this, too. weighs on the fruit. This haz also referehce to dried dates and olive vil. The date palm grows largely in Florida, but the inhabitants a not know how to fructify the female trees. as itix done in the East. so these valuable palms bear no fruit. The date palm grows in Arabia in the immediate vicini- ty of the salt water, and on a soil penctrated with alkaline matter, where nothing else but a few alkaline plants grow, of which a fine po- tasae is produced. Almonds, also, which unaccountably are still burdened with 30 per cent. import duty, merit au attention. Dried figs, dates. almonds, and salad oil might be sad beth to the Eastern shores and by way of this city to the heart of the country with su advantage to the produce, which would far surpass the profits o2 sugar or tobaceo, nay even o the said fruits requiring hardly any labor at ail. The cheapness of production of these fruits allow the Turkish Government and Ara- Lia from two to three dullars each tree, a rather beavy taxution it would scem to us. — see - PiccoLomistan.—A young gallant from Char- jeston. guys the Mereury, was traveling on an Alabama steamboat, when he learned that Mile Piccolomini was upon the same boat With propriety and decortun he availed himself ot an introduction to her, and beeame much pleased with the Seinness Princess.

As our friend had secured 9 splendid specimen of the jasmine, of deep golden hue, he discovered ths logs beneath gently floating; in his haste to eseape they began to turn. and he soon found himself soused to the neck in the waters of the ecookadlest stream ia the South.
