Got an auswer from a gantUman in the Fourth Municipality, who bad a small house containing eleven rooms. Asked him t|ie price per year. Answer—Seven thousand dollars. . My hower, that house is not large, enough, and the price is too small No decent house with two rooms can bo had for that money, now-a-days. Told the agent in terms indignant that wo had been well raised, aud could not lower opr social status by living in A house that rentad for so small p sum. Agent seemed to ; regret it, and I felt duiy sorry for him. Hope some darkey of small means and Isrge facilities for stealing may; fake it off his hands, I have just been informed by the creature I board with that I must leave, a* the creature has received notification that her rent has been raised frofn fifty dollars per month to one thousand.
