female a- quamtan.'c«, arfrl w iih the friendship o f 1 many such Mr. Kelly was honored Poor Kehy was attacked seriously by gout and could not be carried by his sagacious pon-'y to Mrs. ’s nor to Miss ’s; and as there did not appear any chance of immediate recovery, the poney was sent to friend TattcrsaU’s. Here it was re commended as being remarkably quiet, any timid gentleman might ride ’t. It was accordingly pur chased for the Rev. W. T. O , at that time in a bad state of health, and who had been or dered by his physicians to take equestrian exer cise. The invalid clergyman was not a first rate rider, and Michael Kelly’s poney was of fixed and observing habits, and of his own accord regularly trotted up with his reverend owner on his back to several doors where it was anything but reputable to be seen. There he wailed ha bitually for his master to dismount. The Arch bishop of Canterbury having notice of the tact it •’•Was found necessary to sell the poney. Never Ask Question's in* a Hurry.— “ Tom, nsword with you.” “Be quick, then. I’m in a hurry.” “What did you give your sick horse t’other day]” “A pint of turpentine.” John hurries home and administers the same dose to a favorite charger, who, strange to say, drops off defunct in half an hour. His opinion of his friend Tom’s veterinary ability is somewhat stag gered. He meets him the next day. “Well, Tom.” “ Well, John, what is it!” “I gave j my horstPa pmt of turpentine and it killed him as dead as Julius Ctesar.” “So it d d mine.” Henry Clay’s early Democracy.—Col. John -1 san stated during his speech ia Harrisburg, that the I hnt time he ever remembered taking off his coat I to fight, was with Henry Clay against the support ! ers of the alien and sedition laws. He said that in argument Mr. Clay wielded a battle axe, while he I could only handle a tomahawk; but of late j-ears, | said Col. J.,Mr. Claj- and myself have been on op | positc -odes. I must, howevei, say, that he is the I pride of Kentucky, and although we hope to carry \ the State next fall, it looks like hoping against I hope. — Penn. Inq.
