Captain Doth Tittle wanted to go with me. but yon sent me down here os a sort of a supercargo, anl 1 warm likely to let him stick his nose ih:o my bisnesa.

He’s grown as fat and pussy ns o’.d j clocks that our Samuel peddles than chalk is like Lawyer Sikes In our parts, hut I rely think he i rheesse. There were two other things kinder ooks better for it. 1 tell you what,’ his clothes ; like the clock oil both eonds of the mantle shelf, must cost him a few. He’ had on a superfine Imt they warnt nigh so big and they Imd’nt no h ondc'othcoat, that didn’t cost a whit less than j pouters nor no woman on the top. and instead of ten dollars a yard, i wniild'nt be afraid to bei a ; the clura klver there was Ion? chunks of glass coc key. You could a seen your face in his boots hanging down all round them like icicles round and his hair was parted on the top of his head, j the no«e of our pump ill the winter timo. I give atidhuug down on the sides of Ins face and all j one on em a litllo lift jist to Hud out what it was over his coat collar, till he looked more like a ' but the glasses begun tit gim.de so that it scared vvoinm iutueu’s clothes than any thing else. 1 I me out of a years growth and I sol it down agin 'bought I should a haw-hawed out n Inrtin, all? mighty quick I can tell yon. Wol artcro while 1 I could do though it made me kinder wrathy ; be-rttri to grow fidgety so I sot down on a setee all to see n feller make such an ctnrnal coot of! covered over with shiney cloth like the chairs, himself. I thought I’d see if he’d know me ngin. i hut l guess l hoped up agin sprv enough. I nov- so 1 only jest crowed one foot over t'other on j er saw any thing giv ns the seat did.

Itmakes me fidgety lobe shut that chap is to send him eeud foremost as a corkscrew, jest ter seehow he’d act. up in a room alone,so I begun to fix n little but nil Wal, he Cum right up to the stove, nnd took his coat tail under his arms, and begun to whistle as if there warnt nobody iu the loom. One.: in a while, as I took u peek over the top of the p iper, 1 could see that he was a larftn aline kind- j trousers legs down so slick,one would think they er sideways, as if he conld’nt'exactly make up i !iad been dipped into ’em as maram makes hor his mind whether he knew me or not.

Instid of V IfOlls vi ■ Savannah, Nov. 7, w a Resolution in*CoUnoil this day; tho Mayor 4s directed to issuo his Proclamation, sotting apart Thursday, the 14tli inst., na a day of public Thanksgiving to Almighty Hod, for the blessings enjoyed by thn citizens of Savannah, duritig tho past season. Now, therefore,!, Robert M; Charlton, Mayor of the City of Savannah and Hamlets thereof, do hereby issuo tills my Proclamation, setting apart said day for such purpo ses, ami requestin g its ob- servuttreby the Reverend Clorgy and citizens generally. (L. S.) ROOT. M. CHARLTON, Mayor, Attost, M. Mrr.ns. c. c. By gracious, if it'did’nt make me stare to see the pnrty gals and the handsome married women a walking up and down the market among the heaps of beats and cabbages. They looked around mighty knowing, and l rather guess l got my share of attention,'bat somehow it made me feel kinder streaked to have them .a looking at me so steady, for I hadn’t nothing on but my every day clothes; besides the stock that inarm tifcide me, out of her old bombasine petticoat, propped up my chin so that 1 couldn’t a stooped to look into n woman's fnce if I'd a wanted to ever so much. I do be lieve mann and Judy White must a put mote than a peck of tatur starch into the lining. lt,s nlHired stiff, flint’s a fact. Wul, I sold out the lading Uyinrty good advan tage, considering the times. T en I wen down to the sloop, and slicked upinmy Sunday clodies, and started off full chisel to go and see cousin John Bebee. They told me that he kept store away down Pearl street, ecn-a-inost to thejlBattery; so I went on as fast as I could get along! through tho boxes and barrels that lay in the street, till 1 cauie to a great high brick store that had cousin John’s name over the door. It seems that John had ut the City Hotel; and so sez Cousin Debee, has gone into partnership with a Mr. Co. tor that sez he— fellers name is on the sign nrter hisen as large as "Here, Mr. Slick, is the number of our hones life. Iknewthathe and John Wheeler wont in* j —supposing you go along ond tell Mrs. Behee to company together, but 1 suppose they wunied 1 that I’ll be home as soon ns I can git through a more chink than either on em cold raise, and so 1 little bisnesa—she won’t in ike a stranger of yon.” j "I rutlicr guess she won’t,” sez I, a taking the ; little piece of paper which he’d hen u writin on; watch, ali gold in-ode mi l out, and. sez he, "Come Mr. Slick, it’s -about four o’clock—go up and take a fa nilv dinner with us.” I ruther guess engnged this Mr. Co. to help em along. f swan if warm enough to make a feller dry to see the hogsheads of rum ond molosees, mid the heaps often boxes and sugar barrels, piled up iusulu file store; it looked like living,l can tell you. I went through clear to the other end of the store, for they told me tliut cousin John was in the counting room away back there* Wul, I got to the counting room at last, and a handsome lit.'e room it was, all carpeted aud fixed out like some of our best rooms in Connecticut. I haint seen so purty a store scarce ever. Johu wasn’t there,bat I could see that Iip hadn’t got over ull his old (ricks, for a lot ofchesuut shells was trod down round l'ic stove, and there wasn't a few empty botdes standing round under the table and h ick of the desks. It was enough to turn one’s stomach to look at the spit box, it was more than half filled up with pieces ofsegars, and eends of tobacco, that looked as if they had been chawed over a doz en times or more. I don’t see where cousin John got that trick ofsinoking and chewing, 1 defy any body to say he learned it in old Connecticut. They ueedn’t talk to us about the Yankees, for these Yorkers beat us all hollar in them tilings; I haint forgot the time when John would a turned up his nose at u long nine, as if it had a been pi- son, but now he’s sot himself up fora gentleman there is no kno.viug what he hamt token to. There was a chap standing by one of the desks, with the edge of his dickey turned over his stock, —like nn old-fashioned baby’s bib, put on wrong side afore,—and with his hair curled and frizzled up like a gnl’a. I knew in a minute tint this fel ler conld’nt be cousin John, 'so I went up to him and sez I ;— *‘l?riend, can you tell when Mr. Behee ’ill he in?” The chap took a watch out of his vest pock et about as big as a ninepence and sez he— * I don't know positively, but I spose in the course of an hour or so. It’s about time for the bank to clou#.” “Wal,” «ez I, "I spose I may os well wait for him as l stint in much of a huny jist how.” So I sot down in a chair and arter (listing my sole leather ontor the top of the stove, I began to scrape ac quaintance with the chop as I went a- long. * "Tough times vyith you merchants, now aint f she docs, th *re must a hen an almighty change in her since we tired to go to singing shool ut up- p e'aees together." Joan looked kin 1 a skee.y towards the stran ger, and bcztm to fidiet about; so 1 told him 1 could find the way, and unde myself scarce in less than uo time—for I thought us like ns not the fel ler cam to git him4o pul his name to a note, or so iiediihg of that sort; so I thought I'd give him a ciiance to say no. if he wanted to. Ly grac.oits! Pur I'd given nqn irt of soap if you and inarm could a been with mein Broadway as I went along. I couldn’t help from stopping eeii-a-inost every othei minute to look into the winders. Some of them was chuck full of watches and ear-rings, and silver spoons spread all out like a fin, and lot* on loLsoflinxer rings all stuck over a piece of hlack cloth to make em shine. I’ll he darned ifi didn't make my eyes ache us if I'd ben snow blind u week only jist to look at ’em, as I went along! I .-topped into oue store jist by the Park, nnd bought a silver thimble for inarm, and it was as mncli as I could do to keep from going in'o one of the stores where I saw such a heap of calicos, to git her a new gown too. But I can’t begin to write more than a priming of what a fel ler m ly see as he goes up Broadway. It fairly made tne ashamed of our horses, old Polly iu par ticular, when I saw the handsome critters that the niggers drive about them coaches with here. I toil you what, they in *ke a glistening and shinimr when they go through the streets chuck full of gals all in their feathers and hiirbulow*! Toni Broadway is a little le igthy, and no mistake! I believe I footed it more than two miles on them tanrnl hard stun walks,und afore 1 got to Bleecker street, where cousin Behee lives, 1 thought my feet would a blistered. Wal, arter all, I thought I never should a got into the house when I did git to it. It was a ul- firedhigh. and a heap of st.im -tops went up to the ■door, with a kind of picket fence made out of iron, all curlccwvl over on the sides. I looked ail over the door for.a knocker Imt couldetit find nothing' in He] ihape of one, only a square dm nek of silver, with cousin Bebee’s name writ on it. I rapped co ning up and giving me a goo l shake o’the hand ora buss—there wouldn’t a hen any harm in’t ns we were cousins—she put one foot fowl a little an I drew t’other back kiud’p cHtccornrcriug, and then she sort o’wiggled Inr shoulders, and bent fored and made nettrehy, city fashion. He I tit myself. " Is that’s what you’re up to. I’ll jist show von that we’ve had a dancing school in Weathersfield since yon left it’ Miss Behee.” So I put out iny right foot aud drew it up into the holler of tother foot, nnd let my arms drop down a sort a* pnrpindieolar. and fnr’ord—ji«t ns a feller shuts a jackknife when he’s nfeard of cut ting hit fingers—ill I keeping iny eyes fixed on ner fiic *, 'hough I did have to roll’em up a leetle, —I reckon I give her a purty respectable sample o’* a Wethersfhldsbow to match her York Cur dle “Pray he seated Mr. Slick,” sez she. a screw ing her ino'tli up into a sort ofa smile; Imt when I saw how she wn« struck up I want agoing to be behind hand with her, so I puckered up my mouth too, though it wns awful hard work, nod "sez I,” after you is tn timers for me, Miss B bee. With that she sot down in one of tho rocking chairs and stuck her elbo.v on her uriu and let her head drop in’o her hand as if slto warnt more than halfalive, nnd sez. she,— "Take an ottoman Mr Slick.” I guess I turned red enough for I had’ut no idee what she merit, Imt I sot down on one of ‘he footstools nt a venter, and tlpen she said. "IIo.v do M •. and Mrs Slick do? I hope they’re we'l.” ¥ I felt my eheuezera sitting up to hear her call her husband's own uncle nnd au.it such stuck up names, and sez I, "Your uncle and aunt are pertv smart so as to b ? jogging about, thank you Miss Behee.” I Imd’nt Imtjistgot the words out of inv mouth when tl ere was a hell rung so as to make’ine jump up, and in a mttmlarter cousin John came in.
