"I give you very freely, although it is in payment of an unjust debt. The cheerfulness with which I part with you results from the fact that it will save me from innumerable duns. H. I. P." "I part with this bill as cheerfully as did Mr. H. I. P. I spend it for supper, lodgings, and breakfast, at the poorest tavern on earth. I spend it cheerfully, because it enables me to get away. L. C. K." "And I for hitching my horse to a fence in Pulaski, Tenn. W. O. W." "And I part with you for the best magazine in the world, 'Godey's Lady's Book.' A. D. S." The following was on a note, Bank of South Carolina, received from the same person:-- "I part with you freely, as you go to pay for the best magazine in America, 'Godey's Lady's Book.' A. D. S." * * * * * YOUNG ladies had better try the following before they say "Yes!"-- If a man waits patiently while a woman is "putting her things on," or "shopping," he will make a good husband. * * * * * WE shall begin to make a stir by and by, about not crediting articles taken from the "Lady's Book." We can't prevent the English Magazines from copying without crediting, but we shall certainly take the liberty of cutting from our exchange any paper that we find doing it in this country. A Boston paper recently published a story without credit, and when informed that it was our article, they made the _amende_; but in the same paper that contained the apology was one of the very best articles we ever published, "The Fountain very far Down," with the name of the author, Mrs. Virginia F. Townsend, omitted, and no credit given to the "Book." Look out, gentlemen, if ---- pay for stories and give you the privilege of copying them, the least you can do is to give us credit for them. * * * * * BIZARRE.--A new volume of this interesting work is now being published. We do not know who is the editor, but he makes an excellent work. The publisher is G. A. Correa, No. 232 Chestnut St. The price per annum is $2. * * * * * ORDERS for the new fashions continue to pour in upon us. Every one is attended to and forwarded within two days after its receipt. We have lately had three orders for lady's wearing apparel, amounting to $275, and have sent any number of White's bonnets and Mrs. Suplee's patterns. * * * * *
