lion, and two or three timrs, I was on the
point of knocking him into the pit. I, how
ever, restrained myself, and turned from his
nauseous politeness to the adorable being whom,
in my own mind, I Imd determined to tnitrry in
less than a month. So passed the evening till
the play was over; and then I thought would
he my time to unbosom my heart. I made
many attempts which she did not seem exact
ly to understand, till once I -popped a broad
question, and awaited in breathless anxiety the
answer that was to elevate me to the highest
pinnacle of triumph, or sink me to the lowest
depths of despair. At this interesting moment,
the little gentleman aforesaid, who I-iomid was
a Frenchman, stuck his largo nose immediate
ly before me, within two inches of the latly’s
face. 1 siw she looked displeased, and not
considering whether it was at me or him, was
on the point of demanding from him an apolo
gy for his rudeness to a female, when to my
boiling indignation lie exclaimed, in a voice
so loud that it must have been heard by every
one iu the box—“Hero aro one orange, vil
ynu have some, my dear 1”— Insolence intoler
able—I could uo longer restrain myself, to
call the object of my adoration, “my dear!”
I looked at him for a moment, with its much
fierceness its liu ions hate could supply, and
thought I .saw an' approving smile on her ange
lic face, 't was enough. I seized his un-
wicldly probocis between my middle and lore
fingers and tweaked it, as if it was the only
hold I had on existence. The man "roared—
the lady screamed—the audience rose and shou
ted, “l.iisle’em out, husle’cm out”'—a strong
arm dragged uie from the box, and ere my
deijiium of love and courage had subsided, I
foiuyl myself before tjte captain of the watch,
in tlio form of a culprit, with about fifty ragged
little boys peeping at me through the windows
end floors. Among the crowd who had escort
ed irto to this place of refuge, I soon observed
the Identical nose which had been the unlucky
cause of my present situation, and upon look
ing a lii tic more narrowly, discovered there
was a month under it—and a mouth too which
was no ways backward in accomplishing one
of the causes of its creation, viz. speaking.
“Well,” said the captain, “what have you to
nlledge against this gentleman 1 Has he done
any thing to you 1”
“A ha,” said tho little Frenchman, who
was red all over the face, and fidgetted about as
if lie were standing on hot iron. “A ha! you
can .ask dat question, you know nothing bout

surprise and pull my nose."—
My blunder rivited me to the spot, and my
inamorata was a married woman! I immedi
ately jicrccived that I was in something of a

was mot by a fleet of steam boats, ciglileeu in

The squadron of steam boats, decorated with
flags, accompanying tho Pocahontas, on the
deck of which was displayed 24 American
standards, proceeded to the battle ground,
acli boat firing iu quick succession, as it pass,

of a number of his old companions, and was
addressed by Mr. J. R. Grymes, one.of his
aids during the invasion—to whom the Gen.
replied.
Mr. Daveza:, also one of his aids then ad
dressed him; and was replied to by the General.
The New York delegates composed of
Messrs. J. A. Hamilton, Stud Alley aud Tiiad-
deus Phelps were then presented to General
Jackson, who was addressed by Mr. Hamil
ton, tho chairman of the Delegates; to whom
General Jackson replied.
The ceremonies being completed, the Gen.

our respect and admiral am for the patriot sur-
vivonr, to whom, under tho favor of heaven,

Mr. Johnson the chairman of the committee,
addressed tho General; to which tho General
made a feeling and impressive reply; a copy of
which wo have not been able to procure for

The troops of the United States, command

Legion, the Lafayette Riflemen, and the mili
