A jeweller was heard saying to a sadeyed young man yesterday : " I know just how embarrassing it is, but it can't be helped. I sold you the ring for 3d015., and agreed to tell your girl if she came here with it, that it was a 90dol. diamond ring. She came in yesterday while I was busy back here, and that blockhead of a clerk up and told her that it was a filled ring with a brilliant in the top._ Yes, I • suppose she gave you fits last night, and it may break off the match, but you see how it was. She ought to have taken your word that it was a diamond. If you want to take her up one of those sdol. imitation coral sets, I'll make ovit a bill for 60d015., and sign it in regular shape, and perhaps she'll be pacified.
