GINGER BEER. K.w UrxttfM' Hy Htumbled on a Itlrh p Hecrei. pr. J, Hamoral, editor of let Duu jjomle. UulTulo, N. Y.. lias bi-oti in tlie city during tho past week, and furnlnhoii (be following Interesting ai-cotint of tint gccidwitiil or' gin of g'ngor Iter ami the result which madis U inventor a wealthy man. Everybody," nail Dr. Humoral, knows tho ginsjur beer, tlio popular drink of tho middlo and lower clauses in England, tho yearly gales of which (at one ponny per bottle) reauhes mil lions and millions of boUlm. Hut the origin of this pleasant, cheap and truly lomperance drink, is not known, and I doubt whether, even in England, there are many mon who could say how and by whom it was invented. 'The story iavors a little of romance, and I can vouch for its truth, having heard it many a time from the lips of the in vontor, "ho was rather proud of his achievement, and not without reason. "Some eighty years ago, Louis Care,, a boy of a'xtemi, the son of a V07 poor country physician in France, was sent by his father to a school in Lon don in which ho got board, lodging and , instruct'on in English in cxciiango for lessons in French" to tho younger pup la. E'ght months later the schoolmaster died, tho school was closed, and Louis Carcz found himself alono in the big c ty witliout a friend and with very scanty resources. While looking out for another school, he took a room in the house of a druggist, in one of the low parts of the city, and managed to live witli live dollars a month, all that his father could send him. It was utmost starvat on. Hut the poor boy had not seen tho end of h's troubles. One day the monthly re mittance failed the father was dea l! The boy would have d ed of want if it had not" been for the kind charity of the old dnigg'st and his wife. They had become atiached to tho pretty, well-behaved boy,' they pitied liis forlorn po sition, they gave li'm his room and liis board until he could obtain a situation. Anx'ous to make himself useful, Louis Carcz swept and cleaned the I ttle store, and was soon able to help tho old man in preparing simple prescriptions. -One day. as he was alono in the storo. 11 woman called for some ginger powder. Louis served her. and, after she left, tasted the powder. Ho liked it, but finding it burnt h;s tongue, ho mixed it with water. Then an idea struck him. Ho put some ginger pow der in one glass and in another a little sugar and the contents of tho white paper of a se'dliU powder, added water to both, poured the contents of one class into the other and drank wttn do litfht the pleasant, cllorveseing draught. The crinrer beer, although in a crude state, was discovered! For several davs. whenever ho had a chance, the young inventor experimented in the small laboratory, and having at length perfected his new beverage, he calcu lated that he wanted two guineas to manufacture his liiiuid, buy one hun dred boUles, as many corks, and somo twine. One tine morning he made up his mind to sneak to the druggist, ex- pla:n his idea, and beg for the loan of two gu neas. nut tue oiu man uui not see the matter in the same light as tie enthus astic young b:iy anil refused the loan. However, it was written in the book off.ito that ginger beer was not to bo withheld from the appreciating . .

The "ovidences of design" in tho hu man widow have been so much dw.lt !on. in fiction ami satire, that it is a rel ef to turn to a tale in whiel. w K'ntially simple and trustful nature is 1 iorta.

Tho inventions she employed for this pur pose were such as "would naturally occur to a person of her vears and in- experience. She wrote, in tho name of the widower, for hfteen dollars to help iv the men in the widower's oninlov. for money to buv tho widower a tur- ey, to pay tho widower's gas bill, and to pay for tho keep of tho widower's I MM 1.1 . uui u. i iiese crime ucmanus lor money were accompanied by professions of at tachment not less crude, such as the ch Mi ke device of addressing the widow as "My Hear Wife."

Her first husband must have boon a prosa c and literal soul whose pcech was the transparent vesture of s thought, and site must have rashly generalized from him to h's sex. Hut what a fund of simple faith in maiik nd must th's uudesigning wi tow have ac cumulated when it could be drawn upon with success and without 1 nut by such art'heos as those. Her daughter d'd not take after the widow. She was the confidence child of a confiding mother. We should not ven criticise the crudity of her applica tions for money since thev were sue- ccs.-ftil. Like authors whoso produc tions are sneered at bv the crit:c and vourcd bv readers, it must be a I- m tted in her favor that she knew her public find adjusted her means to her I mis. VI the pnnc Pie ot irauiiuicui financo she had a precocious mastery.

In this man ner- she gradually extracted from her mother ?M0, and witliout doubt rejo'ces in a larger collection of pink ribbons and cheat) jewelry than any other cii'iu Easton. Tho simple faith of the mother's character shines tho moro by contrast with the guile of her daughter. So free is she Irom tho subtio and scheming character falsely ascr.bed bv literary persons to the estate of widow hood that she is plainly an easier prey for male dece vers than her precoc ou.-ly accomplished child.
