Old Furniture at a Premium.

I' The London correspondent of an ex change, writing ui.der date October 9, Ba y S : — There has been a great rise m the value of-old furniture m the South eastern district of the metropolis. Old piano stools and beds:e;ids of the old four poster variety, are at a high premium, whilst ancient worm eaten I cabinets, which a few days ago were at kindling prices, are now un obtainable. There will be a decid-d "slump" shortly, that much one cm prophesy with c -rtainty, \>ui for the jnt the bulletin is " market stto =g, I^Bces exceptional," The exp anatiou this state of affairs is simple and An old maiden lady naravd recently died at Lewishaoo, Mostensibly leaving nothing behind her W save a few antiquated .and well-worn I pieces of furniture. i^he during life [ lived m the most economical, not to I say penurious, fashion, and her neigh bours long ago decided that she was " hard set " to make ends meet. Her " bits " were pat up to auction to de ; fray the funeral expenses, andj.n eluded m the not very extensive * catalogue, were a piano stool, much beyond its prime, and a four-poster i bedstead, m considerable need of repairs and polish. A local doctor i gave a few shillings for the stool, ; and a carpenter of the locality was held to have purchased the bedstead dearly at five and twenty pieces of silver. The doctoi turned the stool pver to the carpenter, with instructions to give it a new leather covering. Whilst fulfilling this order, th* joiner found m the horsehair padding of the stool ten bright golden sovereigns, and, being an honest nian, he took the treasure trove to the medico, who re warded him with one of the pieces. On his way home again, it occurred to the carpenter that the old bedstead, for the buying of which " rubbish " his wife had gently reviled him, might conceivably be worth " developing/ or rather demolishing. He took it to pieces, and w»s rewarded by finding m the legs over nine hundred pounds m gold and notes. The story of his luck soon got abroad, and hence the sur prising price for old furniture obtain ing m the locality.
