He had been dunuedifr no purpose for some time, when, as luck would hare it, the hapless debtor became the fortunate possessor of some £60, which had been seat to him from Home. In a happy frame of mind, no doubt from the fact of his being no longer in debt, or at any rate having the where* withal to pay his creditors, the honest burgees Bought his couch after receiving his money, and alept the sleep of the just. Before daylight the next morning, however, he was awoke from his peaceful slumbers by heating footsteps in the houße. Coming from bis bedroom, in his light sleeping costume, the astonished citizen was surprised to gee his creditor standing in the passage in no peaceful tone he inquired the nature of his friend* visit. " Aw," replied the other (for he wan from the land o' cakes). "A heerd you were goin' i'the train, ye ken, and there's that wee accoun o* oors, and I tbocht you might just just settle it."
