No uppity tips for the young men 1 Foreign customers will be starved out, and ws our. fclves go naked I I feel indignant at this change, which is likely to take place in our manners and fadiions.

I never knew any man, foreign or native born, 1 am afraid of, or would turn my back to, at the loom, spindle, (buttle, or any thing clfe that a girl can do, Mrs. Pullet— Why I guess, Mlfs Jenny, you are too rapid—l have railed close upon one hundred pullet* and chicken cocks, this year, with my own hands, and I could never think of being so loud as you arc ; but as. ter all my trouble, no par/an will give sn« wore than one quarter of a dollar for my pippl iy hens—and as to my chicken cocks, they rejeft them as being old rootters—curfc this general Bargo and all other generals, who will nor go straight.
