NEW YORK March, 20th, 1874.
’rma‘. OLD BUILDINGS.
There is no city in the world that, has
better or worse buildings than New York.
The buildings of recent date are commodi-
ons, airy, and‘supplied withiventilation and
the other:requisites for health and lite: But
those dating back thirty years in the time
past of the city are fearful. These houses
are hives, swarming with people, and pos-
sessing absolutely no conveniences. Imag-
ine the condition of a house twenty feet
in the centre of a block, with'openings only
and imagine the condition of the people who
cases of typhoid fever occurred in three
months. Philanthropists have in ‘this i“
wide field for effort. The crying necessity
of New Yory is for houses that can be
rented‘chsaply, and 'thatifurnish light, air
and. water, and in which cleanliness is a
possibility.
And writing of poverty and tenement
houses, what springs so naturally to the
point of one’s pen as '
rawzvisuoxnns,
who are a Queer set and drive a queer busi-
ness. The pawnbroker is a man who lends
money on short time on collateral security.
Are you a widow and is your boy sick?
You take a. shawl to Moses, and he ad-
van‘ces you about one-fourth its value at a
tremendous rate of interest, 25 per cent per
annum. This supply gone, your best dress,
your extra pair of shoes, your wedding ring
your Bible, and finally your bed. He takes
them all, for they are all salable. You get
a ticket for each article, and if you come
within a year and redeem them, all right;
ifnot, at the end.of a year they are sold.
Inside one of these shops you will see a
satin dress hanging ticketed beside a calico
skitt, shoes, Bible, revolvers, musical in-
struments, tools, clocks, kettles, skates,
every species of portable property under
Heaven, side by side. But in the big safe
in the back room, you would, if you could
get‘ a peep therein, see other kinds of
property. '» You would see diamonds, costly
jewelry and silver plate. For the poor are
not Shylock’s only customers. Madame,
on Fifth Avenue, has spent more for dress
than her pressed husband can afford, and.
she does not ask him for "money. The Oh-
sequious dress-maker shows her that her
diamonds can be easily removed from their
settings, and bogus stones, that an expert
could hardly tell from the genuine, put in at
a trifling cost. Then Moses or Simon will
be glad to advance her what money she
needs on the genuine stones. This she does,
paying a ruinous interest, and trying to
save money enough out other allowance to»
redeem them. And then' ruined men find
these'shops a convenient place to get tcm~
porary aid on jewels with which they do
not wish to part. For this class of custo-
mers there is a private side entrance.
Speaking of removing genuine diamonds
and supplying their 'place with paste, re<
mindsjme of a little incident that excited the
risibles of the fashionables only two weeks
ago. A lady on Fifth Avenue had got into
trouble. , She had purchased thousand
dollar dresses, and thousand dollar furs, and
thousand dollar things generally, till her
bill footed up to a sum total that was‘fright-
fut. Her husband had lost heavily in stocks.
She dared not 'ask him for the money, and
what was she to do. She had diamonds to
the value of $15,000. She took these rings
and bracelets and things, and hied her to a
jeweler’s who reset them with imitation
stones that looked just as well as the genu-
inc, and on the genuine stones she raised
the money.to relieve her wants.
In the meantime the husband had lost
money at gambling, and bad “debts of honor
which must be pait ." How was he to get
it? His wife’s diamonds! Capital idea!
One morning he slipped them in his pocket
and went to a jeweler’s.
“Can you take stones out of jewels and
replace them with imitation P"
“Certainly.”
“What would these be worth—or rather
what would you advance upon them i"
said be, pulling out the sparklers,
The jeweler looked at them and looked
up.
“About $150 l”
“8150! Why they cost $15,000.”
“Thc originals doubtless did. We have
the originals in our safe. We took them
out two weeks ago, and put in these paste
ones.". .
The gentleman gave a prolonged whistle,
and put them in his pocket and walked out.
‘ There was doubtless a scene at his house.
Doubtlcss’ he demanded 'wliy Madam, his
u‘ite had pawncd'her jewels, and doubtless
she wants-d to know how he came to know
it. How it was settled never will be
known.
The pawnlirokers are all shrewd men.
They not only know the. exact value of
every kind of personal property, but they
know exactly what it will bring at auction.
' 'rmr rmvns ,
use the paw nbrokers. If the thief has stolen
a watch or table linen, or handkerchief, he
does not keep it. SO the pawnbroker gets
them at oncvfout'th their value, knowing
that they never will be claimed. The marks
are taken out ofarticlcs of cloth—the cases
of watches arc’melted, if the material is
good enough, and others are substituted-
in short no matter what the article is, it is
disguised so that its owner wouldn’t know
it. It is a curious profession and full Of
curious incidents.

The capitalists of - New York, and some
who were not capitalists, got, some years
ago a .mania for big buildings, and an int-
mense number were erected; But none of

ground rent of $30,000 per year and the
cost of the building was simply enormous.
These buildings are splendid advertisements
but the proprietors would have done better
had they used the newspapers.
The Domestic Company pays a
TEMPERANCE.
The temperance movement in the West
has had its effect on New York, though the
plan adopted can never be successful here._
The liquor interest is too immense, and the
lawlessness of the element affected by it is
too dangerous to be tackled in that way.
But the good people are at work neverthe-
less, in the way I indicated in previous let-
lots, and they are strengthening their hands
every other way. One good effect of the
agitation has been the awakening of the
churches to the evil. Trinity Church is the
richest religious corporation in the ofintry,
and her wealth is almost entirely in real
estate. The singular fact has been develop-
ed that this church rents one hundred and
twenty buildings to whOlesalc and retail
liquor dealers' The press has called the
attention of the Managing Board to this
fact and has driven them into steps to reme-
dy it. The temperance people say there is
but little use of their raiding upon the
liquor interest so long asthe greatest church
in America is really a partner in it, and
they are about right. But whether any—
thing will be accomplished or not, is doubt-
ful. Trinity is too rich to (19 much good.
It was not the rich Pharisees but the bum-
ble fisherman who did the great work
-.tighteen hundred vears ago. A church
that owns one thousand building lots worth
an average of $25,000 each—or $25,000,000,
cannot do much in the way of reform. You
see it takes all its time to take care of its
property!
A NEW POWDER.
I hasten to lay before your lady readers
an important fact. For years the fashion
in powder has been white, with a reddish
tint. This is all changed. The correct
thing now is the unbleached face powder, r.
clear Olive tint, which is considered much
more stylish than the old time pearl white
and flesh tints. This converts the lady
using it into a brunette. Of course there
must be red on the cheeks, but the founda-
tion—the first coat, if I'may use the ex-
pression—must be olive Remember this.
fair ladies! You must become Indians, or
an approximation thereto. And another
thing. Take the long high heels Off your
shoes, and have good square heels put on,
set back where the heel ought to be. Fash-
ion has, for once, Gone a good thine. But
how long will it last?
“canton ARTIL'IJSRY." .
About these days look out for peddlers,
with a new toy for children, called “Parlor
Artillery.” This cheerful article is a can-
non loaded with nitro-glycerine, which dis-
charges an india rubber ball, and warranted
to be “harmless." But nevertheless a box
of the cartridges did explode in a house on
Fourth avenue, and did. blow the front of it
out as completely as though a powder
magazine had exploded therein. Imagine
Charles' Augustus, aged five, loading and
firingliis little cannon, warranted harmless.
He drops one back into the box and an ex-
plosion ensues. - Charles Augustus is not to
be found, nor is Mary Anne, his little sister,
who was regarding the proceedings with
interest. The cherubs are gone, btit you
will find pieces of them in the back yard.
Small fragemcnts of C. A.’s boots, and pos-
sibly one of Mary Ann's gaiters will be
enough to hold a funeral over. This is
what you may expect if you purchase for
your little dears anything possessing so
great distributing power as nitro-glycerine
cartridges. Give the parlor artillery a wide
berth. I never liked :cann’on in any shape.
So deep-seated was my aversion to cannon
that at the breaking out of the last war 1 re-
fused to enlist in an artillery company—or
any other company. PIETRO.
——
The “ Ladies,” Man.
By his air and gait, the ultra-lashionable
style of his clothing, the killing curl of his
moustache, the “ look-and-die" expression
of his simpering face, hissteam of small
talk, and sfindry other signs and tokens of
a plethora of vanity and a lack of soul and
brain, you may distinguish at a glance the
individual whb plumes himself off upon
being a “ladies’ man.” His belief in his
own irresistibility is written all over hin..
And, to say the truth, your ladies’ men have
some grounds for their self-conceit. It -is
undubitahlc that girls do sometimes fall in
love, or what they suppose to be love, with
fellows who look as if they had walked out
of tailors’ fashion plates—creatures that by
the aid of various artists who contribute to
' the “make up” of human popinjays have
been converted into superb samples of what
art can effect in the way of giving men an
unmanly appe ancc.- The woman who
marries one of these flutterers is to be
pitied ; for if she has any glimmering of
common scnsc,aiid a heart under her bodice,
she will soon discover that her dainty hus-
band lias no more of a man‘s spirit in him
than up automatic figure on a Savoyard's
hand organ. But a woman worth a true
man’s love is never caught by such a speci-
men of ornamental hollow ware. A sensi-
mcn,” for they are aware. that her penetrat-
ing eye looks through them and sounds the
depths of their emptiness. She knows the
man, indeed, from the.trunipcry counterfeit,
and has no touch of the mackerel propensity
to jump at a flashy bait in her wholesome
composition. The ladies’ man should be
permitted to live and die a bachelor. His
vocation is to dangle after the sex, to talk
soft nonsense, to cuiry shawls and fans, to
astonisli boarding-school misses, and to kin-
dle love flames as evanescent and harmless
as the fizz oa squib. If, bowevcr,lic must
needs become 1 Benedict, let him be yoked
with some vain and silly fiirt,liis natural
counterpart. So shall the law of fitness
not be outraged.
Rather a ghastly incident of the late New
Orleans carnival, was the death of A. W.
Merriam, the “ Box" or lung Oftlic carnival,
by apoplcxy. He left the ballroom attlirec
in the morning, and died in his bed,a few
hours after.

One of our successful merchants, who
was about to sail for Europe, forty years
ago, left instructions with his head clerk,
“Advertise liberally in the city papers. keep
my name and business constantly before
the class of persons who are my patrons.”
Scores of Old merchants can be pointed out,
who have retired with a competency, who
found it greatly to their interest to adver-
tisejudiciously. Hundreds of the live firms
Of Boston are today witnesses of the value
of advertisements in well-established papers.
The uniform testimony of these men is that
a first class newspaper is unquestionably
the best medium yet devised for gaining the
patronage of those who have money to ex-
end. In many branches of business those
firms have the largest trade which most
liberally patronize the press, and to sonic
kinds of business advertisements in news-
papers arc now as necessary as a stock of
goods or a store—Boston Transcript.

Mac, s. Delicate ladies who cannot use others
can 0 rate the Bartram without fatigue.
Best Needle.
It. has the best ‘needle In the world—short and
straight with a flat shank. By simply putting it up
in the needle bar as far as it will go. It is set right
and neverhas to be varied for thick or thin goods.
Dm'abillty.
It is, without question, the most durable machine
in the market. as it is so simplvconstrncted (having
but five workin parts), that-friction is reduced to
thelowest poss ble degree. All the wearing parts
are made of the finest steel, and beautifullyfinished.
General Efiica‘ency.
Theinventor, (Mr. W. B. Bartram.\ has kept one
Important feature in view, viz., that It should be so
constructed as not. to limit its usefulness to any
specialty of work, but to be adapted to both light
end heavy sewing equally well.

Five Jacks Beat Four Aces.
During Illeisession of the U. S. district
grand-jury, a witness was called before
them,namcd Scipio Choteau, a half-breed
Creek Indian and negro, bright, sharp, and '
intelligent. He was the last witness to be
called before adjournment that day. After
his examination, some one of the grand-jury
who knew him, asked him, if he was the
man who had four aces beaten.
He answered: "Yes, sah; I’se de man.”
“ Will you have any objection to telling
it i" - _
“I’s afearcd it will git me into trouble;
but if dejudge is willing," appealing to the
foreman, “I will tell it.” '
The judge consented, when Scipio said :
“You see,1 lives on do cattle trail from
Texas through de Creek country to Kansas,
and I was out in de road one day, and I
meets a gentleman ahead of a big drove of
cattle.” .
“He says, Old man, do you live in dis
country ‘3" .
“I says, ‘Yes, sab.’
“He says, ‘It’s a mighty poor country.
How do'you make a livin’ ?’ ,
“I says, ‘Sah, ’tis putty good country; w
has plenty of meat and bread, and Imakes
a good livin’ a—’
“He says, ‘Old man, do you ever play
keerds ‘2’
“I says, ‘Yes sah ; 1 does sometimes.”
“He says, ‘WOuld you have any objection
tojplay a. little draw ‘2’
“I says, ‘N 0,, sah.’
“So He gets off our horses along side do
read, and sat down, and I.pnlls out do
keerds. Well, in a short time Ibeat dc gen-
tleman out ofsixty two dollars and a half,
andI t’ought I had' him; so I puts up a
hand on him—for I is, do I say it mysel, a
mighty smart hand at keerds—and Iknow’d
he would have tree jacks and I would have
tree aces, and in de draw I know’d he
would git de ode‘r jack, and I‘ Would git de
odcr ace. So he raisesa bit, and I raises
on back, till at last I put up all do money I
had winned from deggemme’n and all do
change I had, and I" ,knowed I had him.
Well, in de draw dc gent got dc Oder jack
and I got de Oder ace. ' De gent wanted to
bet, but I claimed a sigt for de money, and
told him I had an inwincible hand dat
couldn’tbe beat. ' ‘ - -
“He says, ‘Old’ man, dem is right good
britches you is got on ; how much did day
cost?’ . i
“I says, 'Yes‘; sah;.ca‘y cost me ten dol-
lars.’ . p 1 ‘ ‘ . .
l “He says, ‘1 puts up len' dollarsagin dem.’
“I says, ‘Bery well, sah; but I tells you I
got an inwincible. hand.’ ' . , .
“He puts up do ‘money, and I holds up
my legs and he pulls Ofi'de britches and lays
dem down. ‘ -
“ ‘Now, sah, I says, ‘I told you I had an
inwincible hand what can’t be beat, ' I’s got
fo’ aces i” ,
“De gent says, ‘Old man, did you ever
hear of five jacks beatin’ fo’ aces?’
“I says, ‘l’s heard it, sah, but I’s never
seed it; and if you conwincc me oh it, de
present their accounts, properly attested. within

sans woos.» salvo.
A rather singular law-suit has taken place
in North Carolina. It grew out of an effort
to stop a good man who couldn’t sing from
making the attempt in church. The name
of the unfortunate lover of songs is William
Linkbaw, indicted for misdemeanor, and
tried before Russell, Judge, at R’obeson Sn.
perior Court. Defendant, was indicted for
disturbing a religious congregation. The
evidence, as detailed by several witnesses,
was substantially this z—Defondant is . a
member ofthe Methodist Church. He sings
in such a way as to ”disturb the Congrega-
tion. At the end of each. verse his voice is
heard after the other singers have ceased.
One of witnesses being requested to describe
defendant’s singing imitated it by singing a
verse in the voiceand manner of defendant
which “ produced a burst of prOIonged and
irreslible laughter, convulsing alike the
spectators, the bar, the jury and the court."
The defendant is reported to be. a strict
member of the church, (Methodist,) and a
man of the most exemplary deportment. It
was not contended by the State upon the
evidence'that he had any intention or pur-
pose to disturb the congregation, but on the
contrary, it was admitted that lie was con-
scientiously taking partin the religiOus ser-
vice. There was a verdict of guilty, judge-
ment and an appeal by the defendant.
