It must not l>e supposed, though, that aueh measures as these of comparative insignificance were the means of hie prosperity.

He la eaid to ignore to a gr?-#t ex tent the buaineas tact, ability and foresight which were undoubtedly the carvera of his wast fortn.ie, and to attrihnte his success in life solely to luck. And lliia idea ia the cause of numerous ludicrous occur|gpc>-a in Ida career. When be kept his store on Broadway, between Murray and Warren streets, there eat on the aid??alk before it, on an orange box, an old woman, whos? ostensible occupation was the aching of ap plea. TfcN business was, however, merely a pretence ; the main object being beggary. A# years rolled on Mr. Stewart became in> pressed with tha idea that the old dame was bis guardian angel of good luck, and this impression took so firm a hold upon his mind that w ben he removed to Chambers aire*the, ia p<rson, took up the old wo man's box, aud removed her to the front of his new establishment. In further illustra^ lion of M'-, Stewart's faith in the Irish tra ditional belief its " lucky " and " unlock) | persons it may be mentioned that after the completion of the St. Nicholas Hotel in I this city, in undertaking in which he was largely interested, and when the build ng was just about to be opened for the reception of guests, the millionaire, standing in the drawing room, ejaculated, ' It is now finished ; I hope its first visitors may be lucky people." A gentleman presrnt, m ho had keard of ar. onwirii care mr me >gcu apple veuu. or, remarked, " I presume, iir, you do not in reality care about lucky or unlucky per. ?on?."
