MISCELLANY.
Yn I'iiwelcome Guest.
During the winter 0f1“77. New York Long
nnd Staten Isi tndu, were in quiet posscsKion
ot’ the Briti.ih Army, and the season for active
operations not having arrived they lived a lift
of dull inactivity. Marauding parlies were,
however, frequently sent over into New Jer
sey, committing many outrages and making
heavy levies upon the “ Rebel” population.
Nat Randolph, or as the name, was at that
time usually pronounced ‘ Randall’ was a
“Rebel” of gallant daring and of Jersey blood.
From his earliest youth he had lived on the
Van Knlil Sound, near Wood bridge Creek.
He had hunted over every acre within many
miles of his natal spot, and fished in evei
stream, and had acquired an intimate knowl
edge of every bve-path and each nook nnd
corner of the whole country.
The British had. in sonic oftheir firaging
excursions, driven oil his lather’s cattle, a id
hod shown a particular hatred to all of the
name in that region, because oftheir well
known support of the Republican cause.
Nat had not a whit more love fir the em
mi* of his country, than they had shown for
him, and often find he and his companions
vowed vengeance, and many a rime had the
British forces felt his power without suspect
ing whence came the blow.
During the winter, while hostilities were
partially suspended on account of the severity
of the weather, the British officers gave a ball
at a small inn near Richmond.
Brigadier Gen. Bird, with his suit,succeed
ed in gathering together about a score ol lass
es, who, though they were by no means friend
ly 16 the eJtiJSe oi TTte mvaaer. am ,ia ~
to a little harmless amusement which would
beguile the weary hours of a long winter’s
eve, and afford them an oportunity of display
ing their rustic charms, and flirting with the
gaily dressed officers.
A couple of fiddles, playeJ upon (or rather
tortured) by’ two colored gentlemen, were pul
in requisition, and all exerted themselves to
the utmost to render themselves and each
other merry.
The door of the largest room stood inviting
lyopcn, for the benefit of the good country
people who wished to feast their eyes upon
gold lace, and the dashing scarlet uniform- .
Many had come, gazed tor a few minutes, sat
isfied themselves and retired.
Among others came a stout, well built plain
looking man, wrapped up in a coarse great
roat. who stood tiir a time leaning against the
door post, and at length, nt the urgent solici
tation of the officers, who intended to make
sprt of him for their particular gratification
was induced to enter and seat himself quietly
in a corner.
The English officers, in a train of arrogant
boasting were recounting their deeds of chiv
alry. performed during their several late ex
cursions. Many was the hitter curse gratui
tously bestowed upon one Sat Haiulalt. who
had been the means of spoiling so much good
sport ter them, and appeared to be cordially
hated by all the officers present. Finally
Gen. Bird said to one of his aids a fine looking,
but dandified young officer, “I’d give 100
pounds to catch that fellow; he is always
crossing our path and has given us a great
deal of trouble. If 1 could once get hold of
him his neck and an hempen halter would be
likely to form an intimate acquaintance.”
Several swore they would soon relieve his
Excellency’s pocket book of the trifling a
niount, by bringing in the “ cursed rebel.”—
The reward was a tempting one, and caused
the utterance of fearful threats and called ,
forth many a malediction, and numberless an
athemas against the offending rebel.
Profanity was at that time almost univer
sally recognized as an essential part of the
military-! duration, and the Staten Island lass
es could bear ample evidence of the unques- i
tioned familiarity of the British officers, with
that branch of military science.
The coated stranger kept his seat during
the whole conversation and just as the contra
dance was ended, he slowly rose met assum
ed his former position at the dour. Another
dance was called for. and as the gay officers
were moving round the room in search of their
fair partners, the stranger unfolded his arms I
and in a solemn voice, said :—“ liinerul. I’d
like to speak a word or two in your ear.”
The General wondered what could be the
import of th“ communication he wished to
make but be approached him and politely ask I
od him what he had to say. ■ Nothing sir.’. I
replied the stranger, laying his hand upon the
General’s shoulder “only In Nat Randall,
and you are my prison r! The officers flew
at ouce to recover their side arms, ot which
they had divested themselves at the com
moneeinent of the dance; hut Nat resumed, in
an authoritative tone :—“’Tis useless to resist
the house is suiToiiudcd. und if you inuk.- the
least resistance I have men enough to cut you
to pieces.” At the same time opening Ins
coat and displaying a brace of savage-looking
pistols and a gleaming hunting knife, he gavi
a shrill whistle, which was answered from
without by the sound of voices, and the clank
ing of muskets, which somewhat damped the
courage of the saltatory soldiers, ami tulmnn
.shed them that tlteir best policy would be sub
mission.
“Lay down your arms at onre!” thundered
Nat and they were brought and placed in a
l eap at his feet—and on the instant nine faith
ful brother rebels rushed in and took the party
prisoners, the country gtrls at the some time
securing their arms. The British were more
than double the number of the Patriots, but
this they discovered too late, and being depriv
ed of their arms, were obliged to submit.
Now a few words of explanation as to how
Nat received intelligence of the dance, and ol
the number of officers, See.. to be present and
how he was enabled to lay his plans for their
rapture.
A silly half-witted fellow, named Joe Reek
how, a Staten Islander, who liked Nat lor his
many {good qualities, was allowed, on account
ol his tack of brains, to t'orae and go when he
pleased : and the English officers regarding
him as a natural fool, often spoke very freely
belorc him. He had chanced to meet Nat the
day previous to the dance, uml advised him
to conceal himself, as his life was in danger.
Nat told him he did not care a tig for the
whole British Army, and, by his ingenious
![Ueotigup. (lies uut ul’ lilm all (he particulars
of the intended dance, and the names and
numbers of the officers who were to form the
party.
At that period, when every one was a sol
dier, it was a nt’ ,Iter of no great difficulty to
get together a few men, who delighted in a
bold and during, or even u fool hardy enter
prise. The thought of personal danger never
crossed their minds, and ull other considera
tions were lost sight of in the sincere desire ot
serving their beluved country, at ull hazard .
if through carelessocso, or imagined securi
ty, the British nllowcd themselves to he
thrown, even for a moment, off their guard,
some brave fellow, fighting “on his own hook,”
WOf utmost certain to discover the weak point,
and collecting his neighbors they were, either
by means of stratagem or their impetuous and
unexpected attack, invariably successful in
their undertaking*.
Nut had arranged his plans admirably, and
was a* has been shown, successful.
Jot; Reckhow followed N’ut and his party
duwn to the boat* in which they had crossed
the sound, nml mechanically assisted in their j
debarkation.—Nat took good cure of his pris
oners, watching them very strictly, but acted l
towards them her more humanely than they
would have done had he been a prisoner in
their hands. They were eventually exchang
ed for officer* of equal rank, and Nat cumin
ued to tight upon tin side of liberty until the
close of the war.—Acte York Times.

The New Hamphi re Register gives the
following account ol an incident on the New
I luven uml Hartford Road, soon after it went
into operation. The train stopped ni Meri
den to wood up. uml a fidgety genth-man
vho was probably for the first time in his life,
n a railroad cur. and who held on. to his real
with both hand* from tin- moment the cars
est Hartford, hsiking ns though lie expected
every moment to be shook out of the window,
suddenly stepped out on the phulorm, and
took a rapid look at the locomotive. “Any
thing the matter?” inquired a wag who had
greatly enjoyed the countryman’s purturhu
tion. “Anythingthe matter! 1 should think
there was something the mutter, if you ever
noticed it! Why they’ve stepped right in the
middle of the road, and hain't hitched the
ensued thing J ’Spose it should start? hey?
I guess some of us ‘ud be in the kingdom come,
alore night !” A roar of laughter from the
passengers in no wise altered the man's views
of the superior safety of his porition —’ incase
the cussed thing should start.”
■Speculation in Whiskers; —Or, Shaving in
a Broker’s Oiiicc.
BY SOI— SMITH.
There lived in Milledgeville. in 183;? a dan
dified individual whom we will call Ji nks. —
This individual had a tolerable favorable opin
ion of his personal appearance. Ills fingers
were hooped with rings and his shirt bosom
was decked with a magnificent breast pin;
coat, hat vest, and boots were un de exactly
to til; lie won kul gloves of remarkable vvml
ness; his tnur w.is oiled and dressed in tie
latest and b. st style —and to complete Ins kil
ling appearance, lie sported an enormous pair
of RLal Whiskkhs I Ol these whiskers Jenks
was a. prouu as a young cat is of tier tail
wlii'ii she first discovers she lias one.
I was sitting one. day in a broker’s office,
when Jenks came ill to inquire tne price ol ex
change on New York. He was invited to sit
down and a cigar was offered. Conversation
turning on the subject of buying and selling
stocks, a remark was made by a gentleman
present, that he thought no person should sell
out sio ‘k in such-and-such a bank at that time,
as it mu.it yt.t btVwr in n irw days.
■ | will sell antj thing I’ve got, if 1 can make
any thing on it.” remarked Jenks.
“Oil. no.” replied one. •• not uny thing; you
! wouldn’t sell your Whiskers.”
A good laugh followed this chance remark.
Jenks immediately answered “ 1 would —but
who would want them ? Any person making
the purchase would lose money by the opera
tion. I’m thinking.”
” Well” 1 observed I would he willing to
take the spi dilution, if the price could hi’ made
reasonable.”
“Oh, I’ll sell ’em cheap.” answered Jenks,
winking at the gentlemen present.
“ VVliat do you call cheap?” I inquired.
” Til sell ’em lor .$30.” Jenks answered pus-
I ting forth a cloud of smoke across t lie counter,
and repc itmg the wish.
“Well that is cheap; and you'll sell your
whiskers lor SSU ?”
“1 will.”
Both of them 7”
•• Both of them.”
” I'll take them ! When can 1 have them?”
“ At any time you choose to call tor them.”
“Very well—they’re mine. I think 1 shall
double my money on them, at least.”
I took a bill of sale as follows:
“Received of Sol. Smith Fifty linllan in bill for my I
crop oi wbiskeis, to !*■ worn and taken cure ol'by me.
ami delivered to him wli.m called tor. J .ItuNKS”
The sum of fifty dollars was paid and Jenks
left the broker’s office in high glee flourish
ing his live Central Bank X's. and telling all
his acquaintances of the great bargain lie had
made in the sale of his whiskers.
The broker and his triemls laughed at me
for being taken in so nicely. Never mind.”
said I. “let those laugh that win; I'll make a
profit out of those whiskers, depend unit.”
For a month after this, whenever I met
j Jenks, he asked me when l intended to call lor
my whiskers ?
j “I’ll let you know when 1 want them.” was
i always my answer. “ Take good care of
I them —oil them occasionally; 1 shall call li>r
them one of these days.”
A splendid ball was to be given to the mem
bers of the Legislature. 1 ascertained that
Jenks was to be one of the managers—he be
ing a great ladies’ man, (on account of his
whiskers 1 suppose.) ami it occurred tome
that before tin- ball took place. I might as well
call li>r ray whiskers.
One morning I met Jenks ina barber’s shop.
He was adonizing before a large mirror, and
combing up ray whiskers at a devil of a rate.
• Ah! there you are. old fellow.” mid he.
speaking to my reflection in the glass. -Come I
for your whiskers. I suppose ?”
“ Oh, no hurry,” I replied, as I sat down for
a shave.
•Always ready, you know” lie answered,
giving a final tie to Ins cravat. •
“ Come to think of it ” 1 said musingly, as
the barber began to put the lather on my thee.
“ perhaps now would he as good a time as an
other ; you may sit down a id let the barber
try his hand nt the whiskers.”
■ You couldn’t wait until to-morrow could
you 7” he asked hesitatingly. “ There’s a ball
to-night, you know ”
“ To he sure there is and I think you ought
to go with u clean litee; at all events 1 don’t
see any reason why you should expect to wear
my whiskers to that ball ; so sit down.”
“He rather sulkily’ obeyed and in a few
moments his cheeks were in a perfect loam of
lather. The barber flourished his razor, and
was about to commence operations, when 1
suddenly chan teed my mind I
“Stop. Mr. Barber.” 1 said; “you needn’t
shave off'those whiskers just yet.” So lie qui
etly put up his razor, while Jenks started up
from the chair in something very much resem
bling a passion.
“This is trifling!” he exclaimed. “You
have claimed your whiskers - take them.”
” I believe a mail bus a right to do as he
pleases with his own property,” I'remarked,
and left Jenks washing lus face.
At dinner that day the conversation turned
upon the Whisker affair.. It seems the whole
town had got wind of it. und Jenks could not
walk the street wilnout the remark being conti
nually in i*l’ bv the boys, •• There gin s the man
with Old Sol’s whiskers!” And they had
grown to un immense size, tor iie dared not
triin them. In short 1 became convinced that
Jenks was waiting very impatiently lor me to
assert my rights in the property. It happen
ed that several of the party were sitting oppo
site me at dinner who were present when the
singular bargain was made, and they all urg
ed m to to take the whiskers that very day,
and thus compel Jenks to go to the hall’ wlto
kerless, or stay at home. I agreed witli them
it was about time to to reap my crop and
promised that if they would all meet mu at
the broker’s shop wnese the purchase hud been
made, 1 would make a call on Jenks that even
ing after he laid dressed lor the ball. All
promised to be present at the projmsed shar
(ngoperation in the broker’s office, and 1 seat
for Jenks and the burlier. On the appearance
oi'Jenks it was evident he was much vexed ut
the sudden call upon him, mid his vexation
was certainly not lessened when he saw the
broker's office wus tilled to overflowing by pec
tators anxious to behold the barherous pro
ceeding.
“Come, be in a hurry,” he sniff, as be took
a seat, miff leaned his head against the coun
ter for support. “ I can’t stay here long ; sever
al ladies are waiting tor me to escort them to
the ball.”
“ True, very true— you are one of the man
tigers —I recollect. Mr. Barber don’t detain
the gentleman—go to work at once.”
The lathering was soon over, and with about
three strokes ol the razor one side of his face
was ilepriretl if its ornament.
“ Come, come ” said Jenks. push ahead— j
there is no time to I c lost —let the gentleman
have his whiskers —he is impatient.”
“ Not nt all,” 1 replied coolly. •• I’m in no ,
sort of a hurry mysell—and now I think of it i
a* your time must be precious at this particu
lar time, several ladies being in waiting for
you to escort them to the hail. I believe I'll not
take the other whisker to-night /”
A loud lungli from the hy-stailders uml a ‘
glance in the mirror, caused Jenks to open his !
••ye* to the ludicrous appearance he cut with
his single whisker, mid he begun to insist up
on m v taking the whole of my property I But
nil wouldn’t do. I find a right to luki it when
I chose— / was not obliged to take it all at onre;
and I cheute to take hut half ut that particu
lar period—indeed I intimated to him very
plainly that I was not goi ig to In 1 a very hai
creditor; und that if he “behaved himself
pi rhitM I should necer call for the b dunce if
whut he owed me I
When Jenks became convince.) I was deter
mined not to taku the remaining whisker, he
began amidst the loudly expressed mirth of
the crowd, to propose terms of compromise—
first offering me ten dollars, then twenty tliir
ty, lortv —fifty! to take oil'the remaining whis
ker. / : aid firmly. “My dear sir there is no
u.-c talking; I insist on your wearing that
whisker for me for a month or two.”
“ What will you take for the whiskers 7” hi
nt length asked. - Won’t you sell them back
to met”
“ Ah,” replied I. “now you begin to talk -
a business man should. Yes I Isaiglit them
lon speculation—l’ll sell them if I can obtain
a good price.”
Whut is your pric. w
•'One hullo ed dollars —must double my
money.”
■■ Nothing h ss ?”
“ Not n lartiii ig less—nnd I'm not anxious
to sell even at that priee.”
” Well. I'll take them ” he groaned “tin it ’* !
your money ; and here barber, shave off this ‘
internal whisker in less than no taui —1 saali ;
be late at the ball.”
The barber accomplished hi work, and poor !
Jenks was whisker less! Jenks v.etit ti tli

.
It ha* accordingly been determined that in all cases
where the annual premium shall amount to SSO, and 60
per <■. ut. thereot shall have been paid in earth, an approv
