It seems that Billy, while in a country village in which he oWned some property, stepped into a barber's shop to get shaved; Ibe Bhop was full of custcfn *rs, and the old gentleman quietly waited for his turn. A customer who was under the barber's bands when the. old trtan came in, ashed the 'knight of the raEor,' i<f an tinder tone, if he knew who that was, and on receiving a negativo reply, h$ informed him, in a wniaper, it was' old Hilly Uibbous, tUe rich- j est man in the State.'

'It's nay price,' 6ai3 he of the lather brash independently, 'and as this is the on ly barber's shop in the plaee, them as comes into it mnst pay what*I ask.' To the old-mHn this was. evidently a knockdown argnment, ^.for "he drew three quarters of a dollar from his pocket, paid them over to the barber, and left the shop.
