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. Hitch nut th< < ns**-cl Thins* 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 ball, but before the night was over he . ■/’ ;.‘i he Itatl n't * * * * — St. Icm is it “iiV, r.
