“Done Brown.”
THE RESULT OF A BET.
A right merry bevy of worthies was that
Iquad who entered Bingham’s splendid Sa-
oon on Friday evening last, to partake ofan
Iyster supper—the result of a bet on the late
election. If any were merrier thitn the rest
it was the stakeholder. The ‘oysters and fix-
ens' for seven’ being placed upon the ele-
gant marble slab, the unfortunate loser of
the wager, by mere accident, found himself
seated against the wall at the upper extremi-
ty ofthe booth. It was a rare feast truly I
‘Gentleman’, observed the unfortunate,
‘this scene reminds me of an incident which
occurred some years since in New York.’
‘Hear, hear, hearl was the response ol
the com any. ,
‘I can ess‘ myself the victim,’ continued
the loser. ‘I had but recently arrived in
that hospitable city, and, unfortunately, pos-
sessed the verdancy common to new-comers
there. I took lodgings at a fashionable
boarding house, and my kind hearted room
mates awoke me from a sound sleep, about
ten o’clock on the third night after my arri-
val, and urged me to accompany them to
‘John Street,’ and join them at supper.‘ I
had just gotsnugly warm in bed, but thi_s im-
portunate and pressing politeness overpow-
ered all other considerations, and I _turned
out upon one of the coldest nights in De-
cember—-dressed and joined them. We re-
paired to John Street and disposed ofan ex-
cellent supper. My companions arose, one
by one, lighted a cigar each, as I supposed,
in my unsophisticated innocence—passed in-
to the smoking room, where Iproposed, in
a moment, to join them I I turned towards
the door. but my obliging companions were
minus ! .'I‘he waiter touched his cap politely.
and at the same time slipped a peice of paper
into my hand,upon which I re-.ad'four suppers.
($5. $3 86 I’ ‘What was to be done? I was
a stranger—in a strange place——some mis-
take, perhaps--honor ofmy friends. To be
brief, gentleman. Ipuid the bill! It was my
initiation into the mysteries of New York.
Ha! ha!’
A general laugh followed the relation of
this incident.
‘Well,‘ continued the victim, ‘as I was
saying just now, this is a magnificent a-
partment, and [couldn't help thinking of
that joke. It "was capital, eh .7 Ha I ha I ha!
But I rather incline to the opinion that it
' would be extremely difficultto come that
thing over this child again; rather difficult.
‘A great go, that,’ exclaimed the party.
‘Very,’ continued the victim, as he swal-
Iowedthe last oyster.
‘Beg pardon, gentleman,’ quietly remark-
ed the stake holder, ‘excuse me one momnet.’
The joke and repartee was passed around,
and ti second friend had business which com-
pelled him to leave. He was excused. A
third stepped below stairs to look after the
holder ofthe stakes; and a fourth started
shortly after, in search ofthe other two.
By this time the loser of the wager began
to smell mischeief, but his unfortunate posi-
tion at the upper end of the arbor prevented
his egress without being rude. The supper
finished, the ijemaining trio rose-to depart.—-
Our victim entered the bar room expecting
to find his associates in waiting, and as’ he
passed into the latter his two last named com-,
pnnions passed out at it side door! -"A
single individual only was present when he
entered, but trusting that all was right, he
passed the bar and reached the outer door.
‘Bill. sir,’ remarked the landlord, quietly.
‘Bill? Bill who, sir .? What bill '2’
‘Particulars there, sir,’ pointing to a slip
of paper.
‘Ob——ahl yes—all paid, ofcourse .7 Fine
establishment this——ele
‘Srnall tnistalte—beg your pardon. sir.’.
‘Oh, never mind—-just as welI——never take
change, sir good eve
‘But the bill is not paid, sir,’ added the
landlord.
‘Not paitl? Very queer this. Funny,eh .7’
‘But, my dear sir, I was iitvitcd here,
and ——-’
‘Very likely, sir-
'But I assure you—’
‘Common occurrence—but you are the last
man out—’
‘Well, sir—’
. ’I_flSI man, sir—-we always look to the last
man out.’
‘Interesting regulation, that sir.’
‘Very, sir.‘ Three twenty five, I said, sir.’
‘Yes—exactly—I see—correct, I dare say.
A V. sir-—the change, if you plcase’—and,
muttering something which sounded very
much like 'pa.rticula.rly green, this,’ he fork-
ed over the tin and departed. He returned
however, instantly, and entered the bar rooiu
with——
‘I say’, landlord, my umbrella; it rains like
the d l.’ .
‘Hav’nt seen it, sir, really.’
‘No—-’spose not. , I left it here however.’
‘Your friends—’
‘Be hanged,’ added the victim.
The waiters were summoned, but the um-
brella was not to be found. By this time
our friend had become somewhat restive.
He strode. to the door—looked for an instant
up and down the street. and jamming his hat
down upon his forehead, he darted down
Court street, halfblinded by the pitiless rain
which was falling in torrents. As he pass-
ed the corner of Court square, one‘ loud
laugh greeted his ears. from his friends who
were watching for him.
‘Very like New York, this,’ said one.
‘Capital joke I’ cried another.’
‘Bill, sir,’ added a third.
‘Couldn't come that game twice,‘ roared a
fourth.
The victim heard no more -—a_nd the last
that was seen of him, he was rushing at the
top of his speed up Washington street in
the rain. endeavoring to overtake an omni-
bus \V-hlcll had a moment the start of him. I
