-Last summer a bank clerk in New
oik stole $100,000, - lie lost the money
v "fighting the Tiger." He then called
on a lawyer and informed him that he
as a ruined man and thought of suicide,
ais led to the following dialogue:
"How much, does your defalcation
uonut to V
"One hundred thousand dollars.
"Got any of it left ?" .
".Not a cent."
"That's bad; you have left nothing to
ork with. . .
"What must be done V
"You must return to your desk and
stract another luindred thousand."
"What must I do that for ?"
"To preserve your character and save
n from gg to the State prison.
,Tith the hundred thousand dollars you
e to steal to-morrow, I intend to com
romise with the hank. Your stealings
"ter to-morrow will amount to $200,000.
will call at the bank and confess your
fense; I will represent myself as your
eart-hroken uncle,4 "honest but poor;"
will offer, the bank $50,000 to hush up
ie matter. The bank will accept. This
ill leave $50,000 to divide between you
mc that is $25,000 apiece. With
lis sum you can retire from business."
The young mail listened and took on
visdom. lie doubled his defalcation
md compromised as the lawyer said he
hould. He is now worth $250,000, and
counted "one ot tlje most i;espectaoie
ntlemen in the city of New York."

The sensational story about a minister from
'.laximilian to President Johnson, presenting him
elf to the secretary of State with a letter of cot
lolence on the death of President Lincoln, and be
hg politely bowed out, conveys at least as much
nformation to the State department as to the pub
- ic. Nothing is known in Washington of any such
elter, or any such interview. '

NEW SKIRT FOR 1865
HOOP SKIRTS.
JW. BRADLEY'S NEW PATENT DUPLEX
ELLIPTIC, (OR DOUBLE) SPRING
SKI RT. This invention consists of Duplex (or two;
Elliptic. Pure Refined Steel Springs, ingeniously
braided tightly and firmly together, edge to edge,
making the toughest, most flexibl-, elastic and dura
ble Spring ever used. They seldom bend or break,
like the Single Springs, and consequently preserve
their perfect and bcutiful shape more than twice as
' long as any single spring skirt that ever has or can
j be made. ;
The wonderful flexibility .and great comf rt and
pleasure to any lady ' wearing the Duplex Elliptic
Skirl 'will be experienced particularly hi all crowded
assemblies, operas, carriages, railroad cars, church,
pews, arm chairs, for promenade and house diess, as
the skirt can be folded when in use to occupy .a small
place as easily and conveniently as a silk or muslin
dress.
. A lady having enjbye,d the' pleasure', comfort and
great convenience of wearing the Duplex Elliptic
Steel Spring Skirt for a single day will never after
wards willingly dispense with their use. For chil
dren, Misses and Young Ladies they are superior to
all others. i , . - -
The Hoopare covered with 2 ply double twisted
thread and will wear twice as long as the tingle yarn
covering which Is used on all single steel hoop skirts.
The three bottom rods on every skirt are also Dou
ble Steel, and twiceror double covered to prevent the
covering from wearing off the rods when dragging
down stairs, stone steps, &c, &c, which they are
constantly subject to when in use. .
All are made of the new and elegant corded tapes,
and are the best quality in every part, ging to the
wearer the most graceful and perfect shape possible,
and ate unquestionably the lightest, most desirable
comfortable and economical skirt ever made.
