M vs-t'r VCTIT.ERS and Dealers in.all 'kinds of writers termed ed for rain, that I might have an oppor- tunity to display it. '\ One ovening thero was a Lyceum ledture to which I was engaged to escort a young lady—a cousin of mine. To my great delight, as the hour approached it began to rain a little, but not enough to prevent our going. \ I walked to thelaatl door with a hap- py heart, carefully shielding my cousin from the rain with my wufcrella. In the time I purohased a good-one Three -days afterward a friend borrowed it without leave. The next I had heard of him, he had sailed for Europe an d carried it with him. Vou Bee, my doar friend, frorii this short\ narration, t o what miseries I have been subject on account of umbrellas. Were I to give you a faithful detail of my loss- es, it would fill a volume. But I will hot worry you any longer. During tie last pride of my heart I could not help ask- 1 fifteen yoars I have purchased one hull- ing her how she liked my uiiibrella, but' dred and fifty umbrellas. Where they .my ardor was cheeked-by lar iiidiffeieirt; arj n-nv I don't kn.iw.. Scattered all reply— \ Very well, what. d ; d you ;gwe for . it?\ 1 \ I was about to carry it into the lee- •• lure ru^ n., but the duor tender told me this was nut al'owed. I accordingly bid it behind the dour, in what I iniagiued a sate pi .ice. There was but one other one with it—a faded coaise cotton umbrella— which, in its palmiest days-, now lung gone by, might have cost fifty-cents. \ Though undor some apprehensions, I 'managed to sit quietly through the lec- ture. At the close I darted out sn.search of my treasure. Alas! I was tuo late. Mine was gune, and the fudui collon on* left! Picture my consternation—my dismay. But I was forced tu put up with the Joss, or rather exchange, and, uorror of horrors '.' escort my cousin home, .is it was still raining, under the odious cotton one. \ Thus was myfir»t boyish dream irade- ly broken in upon. I need not say that [ did not set eyes on nly umbrella again. As 4or the one t got iivexchange, I hated the sight of it, for it recalled tho memory -if my loss. I took tho earliest.opportu- nity to lend it, and it was never brought back again. \ In the process of time I got another .imbrella. It resembled as uc.ulyas pos- iible the fir.-t otic I poss.'ss-cd. To make -ure that it would not be taken, I had iu- oribed on it iu large letters— \ Stulen from John Jones, Jr.\ '• Walking out with it one day, I sud- denly felt a heavy hand placed upon my noulder, aud, turning n-uud, faced a po- iccmau. \ Ah hu, my fin.' fellow, 30 you carry round stolen property, do you V \ It is luine, sir,\ ;..id I, trembling O, yes, no dutio. , but as I am bound .or the Waich-liouHv, I will trouble YOU to go with me, aud hold the umbrella over my head.\ I was 1'uMicd to go. The next day it ivas easily pro\ed that I was the ioiio fide owner, but the property had disap-! ; t w in. As soon a s he breathed his'last over the globe, I have no-doubt. \ At length I have resorted t o this ex- pedient. Xi.is umbrelia I have had made of red cottun, expressly forme. 'You duu't think,' ho added with a.faitit smile, •they will take this, do you V \ 1 hhook my head, and lny friend .de- parted, leu\ ing sue to muse on his unhap- py fate. My meditations were l.r ...glit to an end by hearing a shout of di'iision. I turned round and discovered that a glut of wind had tamed the red cotton umbrella inside out, aud injured beyond repair. Poor Jones I I have not seen him since. I shall call tomorrow at the uni brella merehau'ts, round the comer. I shall be sure to hear of him there. An Irish Letter.
