A PLEASANT TRAVELLING COMPANION @ nspecies of treasure trove. Many Insting frend: Dhips have first originated in casnal meetings on the Bteamboat or rallway car, hundreds of miles from home, Now, Mr. Merritt, an old citizen of Elmira, ‘was coming, About a week irom Cheyenne to Ow He was sitting alone in the cars, when a young and ly respectable gentleman, Snxions, no doubt, to relieve iimeel€ and Mr. Mer.

It was counterfeit, and he kuew it, but said nothing. ‘They dined at the Unknown's expense. A prince ly dinner it was, too. Mr, Merritt buried himself in deep thouzht for some time. He taxed his brain to guess if he had ever seen that free before, The voice, the manner, everything about the man was #0 familiar to him, Mr, Merritt had been a merchant before he became a farmor, and while ongaged in the former business had com. tn contact with all sorts ‘®f people.
