One day—and a very hot day it was—the rapid approach of a thunder storm, induced ine to rein up my steed, at a log tavern, in the town of — —. Though a stranger in the country, I could at once discover, by the ‘signs,’ that something more than common was going on in the village A large number of people were crowded round the door of the inn. Horses of ail siz efi, colours and conditions, whose equipments were as various as Themselves, were tied to the branches of the forest trees,, that still grew upon the public square. The occasional dis charge^ of a rifle, indicated that some of the company were/cutting the centre,’ for half ’pints; while others, who ‘had the ho^ quarter nags in K-mtuck,’ were prancing them up and down the streets. The conversation of thoS? around me induced me to believe that the ^otirt was holding its usual session, in this seat of backwoods injustice; and had a doubt re tnained, the stentorian voice of the sheriff, is suing from the door of a log school-house, wilh ihe 'O yes! oh yes! oh yes!’ must have satis* fieri me, that a general assortment of the rights ofmeum# tuum, was to take place I felt a cu osiiy to w tncss^frts scene! and having dispose ed of my portion of corn bread and bacon, which I found at a table surrounded by a pro misenons throng of Jurors, witnesses, suitors, lawyers, indictees, spectators, and county offi cers, I concluded to spend the htlle time I had tp remain, in personally viewing the dispensa tion of justice, in so rude a temple. The house was of a single story, built of fogs, un lie wed. The judge was elevated on a small plank frame, a little raised above the puncheon floor. The clerk was placed at a small table, directly before him- The mem bers of the bar were seated around .on tempo rary f benches, made of rough planks, placed upon blocks of wood—but could not be dislin guished by (heir appearance, from the people who sat with, or stood around them,. The U' sual forms and ceremonies of opening a court, were gone through with a celerity and precision that would have astonished a Westminster law yer * * The first case in the civil docket was an action of slander, brought by a fa ther, an old soldier and an early settler.—as guardian and next friend,’ for words ‘falsely and maliciously uiterred, published, & spoken/ igainst the plaintiff's daug hter,- a lovely girl of about seventeen * On the calling of the cause, a person’s name was mwinnued distinctly hear; there was a bustle in the crowd; and after a few minutes of pushing and elbow* mg, an individual appeared, who announced that he was to proceed, as counsel for the plaintiff He was a'tall, athletic man, of about thirty five years of age—with a fine, manly, intelligent countonaflijc—dressed in ajhunting shirt of deep blue, trimmed with yellow fringe. His face bore those indubitable marks of ge nius, and those traces of study and reflection, which cannot be mistaken; while his fine form ! ore evidence equally strong, of habitual fatigue ami exposure to the elements. 1 pass over the incidents of the trial—the evidence, which fully sustained the plaintiff and left the pretty client of the buckskin lawyer, pure and spot less as the driven snow—and several speech cs, which, though strong and forcible, did not strike me as extraordinary. Daring all this, the manner of the stranger, in the hunting-shirt, was distinguished by little else than an ap pearance of indifference; but when he rose to make the concluding address to the jury, every eye was fixed on him—while the deep silence, the suppressed breathing, and the eager audi enco, attested, that a sense of the presence ol a superior mind pervaded the whole assembly. Even that rough and micellaneous crowd— composed of men, some sober, and somp half «>obcr, and some not sober at all—was at once awed into silence. The orator commenced in a low tone of voice, and recapitulated the evi deneo, in a style of colbqutal brevity and plain ness yet even in doing this, there was some thing about him that convinced the spectator that he was more than an.ordinary man, But when he bfgan to WWrrn, and rise with his sub ‘can you tell me the name of the gentleman that has j*:#r spoken.?’ 4 You are not a residenter in these parts I reck on,’ said be of the rifle. ‘I am a perfect stranger’’ replied I. ‘That is well seen,’ rejoined the honter; o- therwise you would never ask the question. What man in all Kentuck could ever have brung tears into my eyes by I he tin Juil, but Jo Davies!’ 1 had seen in the guise of a hunter the high ly gifted Joseph Hamilton Davies; and had heard in the obscurity of a log cabin, one of the choisest efforts of a man who lias seldom been excelled in genius, in generosity of heart, or manliness of character. Ten years afterwards, business again called me to the West. Anxious to view the im provement of this promising country, I ext°nd- ed my journey to the beauti alley of tho Wa bash. At that period the population had not ex tended a great distance up the river. Here and there, even as far up as the month »1 tho Mis- sissinaway, was thU log hut of the settler on public land, but tlie Country was generally buf sparsely populated. It was the spring season; and no country io the world presents a richer scenery, or more diversified lannVc : »p*tY tkao the v'MIcy of that lovely river, at this period pfths year. Along, the path which I pursued; ohe small prairie; sk»rted with the finest timber, and covered with a prolusion of beautiful flow ers, succeeded aqotner; J*cd the eye was con tinually refreshed with the graceful stream and its clear wafers. The richness of the grass, the beauty of the forest, ihe mildness dr.“! brilliancy of the spring weather, and theeo chantmcnt of the whole scene, induced me to linger for n time in the wilderness One even mg I reached the cabin of one of the most re mote settlers, & learning that the battle-ground of Tippecanoe was but a few miles distant, de termined to visit it. On tjie following mqrn- ing, early, I reached the 9po,t consecrated by the valor of our coutrymen ; aod having tied my horse to a hash, at the skirt of a prairie, as cended to a smaU pain of table land, in the form of a horse shoe,’ where * Many a valorous deed was done, A nd many a head laid low.*. But lew vestiges of the battle were remain ing. Here and,there the bleached skull of some noble fellow lay ory* the grass; and more than once I stumbled oyer the logs which had formed part of the. temporary breast work thrown up after the battle, and have since been scattered over the field. . At an an gle of encampment, and where the carnage bad been greatest was a slight mound ol earth, scarcely raised above the surrouoding sufrace Near it stood an oak tree, pa the bark of which the letter^ ‘J D.’ were rudely carved. This was the only memorial of one of tjbe most fa vorite of Kentucky’s sons; for under that mound reposed all that remain of the chivalrous, lilUguncriutRJiltiiG ClO^UCui f BUOTW iu^w ed Jo Davies” 1 | jeet—wheu the fire began to iljumine his eye, and his voice swelled out into its fullest tones —when every sentence was filled and rounded with a rich thought and richer language— when argument and satire, persuasion & tnvec live, bnrst from him in rapid alternative, the orator stood confessed in all his power. He spoke of the beauty, the delicacy.- and the a« (inability of his fair client—of the helplessness of woman; and the sacrednes9 of female char acter; lie described her parent as au aged war* rior, now trembling on the brink of the grave —and of the traduced he spoke—I cannot tell how—bnt all who heaid bin shrunk, and trem bled, under the fieice, and bitter, and over whelming phillippic of the indignant advocate When he finished, the success of his effort was shown by a triumphant verdict ^frqtq thp jury, and by the the indignation, the tears, and the acclamations of the audience, who rushed from the house when the orator sat down, as if unable to supress their feelings. I followed them out. The charm was bro ken ; the people had resumed the use of their faculties, and were now collecting in groups Passing a little part/1 heard one aay. , ‘Did you ever hear trfellow get such a skinning?’ ‘It was equal to any eumphire/ remarked an- *fhe following is a happy commentary and satire upon the system of flagellating learn ing into the comprehension. CONJUGATING A VERB. Dick Orrod and his brot her Giles were fine Specimens oi the bumpkin boy? of tbe W sf of England ; their father who was. a flourish ing farmer, gent them to pick up a liUtTe learh ing at an expensive academy, in a large town about twenty miles from the village where tie lived. The master bad but recently ed the school from his predecessor; ana stran ger as be was to the dialect of that part the ot country, he could scarcely understand above half of what Dick and Giles Orrod, andli few more of his pupils, meant whcB they spoke “I k named I tinned, fy I hut” were barbarisms to which his ear had never been accustomed and it was only by degrees he discovered that they were translations into the rural tongue, of “I knew, 1 ran, I hit ” Bui there were tew so rude of speech.as Dick and Giles orrod. Fraternal affect too was a virtue that did not flourish in the hosoms of either of these young gentlemen. Dick’s greatest enemy on earth w»9 Giles; and if honest Giles hated liny hu ^an being except the master it was Dick — They were excellent spies bn each other’s con duct: Giles never missed au-opportunity of procuring Dick a castigation; and Dick wasT e- qn.dly activ in making the master fbequainted with every punishable pecadilio that bis broth er committed One day an accusation was prefer! gainst Master Richard, by one of the of having cut down a ainall tree in tho sff^uh- bery ; but there was not sufficient evidence to bring the offence, home tp the supposed criroi nal “Does no young gentleman happen to know any thing more of this matter 1” inquired th% master. ^ sift” said the master, “What do you know aboutthe tree?’* _ “If you plaze, sir,” growled Gi!es, "if you plaze. sir, I sawed un.*‘ “Ob! yoii ‘sawed un/ did you.” ■* “Is. { did:—Dick seed I sawed un.” “ “is this true, master Richard?” M is9,” said Dick; and Giles, much to hU at* tenishroent, was immediately flagged down the tree, and he seed 1 sawed un, and a’ couldn’t deny it.” “I didn’t deny it ” said Dick. “Then possibly you are the real delinquent, after all master Richard/' exclaimed the mas ter. Dick confessed that he was, but he hoped the master would not beat him. after having flogged bis brother for the same offence; in his way, he humbly submitted that one punish ishment no matter who received it—but espe cially as it has been b< slowed on one of the same family as'the delinquent—was to all in tents and purposes, enough for one crime. The master, however,, did not coincide with Dick on this grave point, and the young gen tleman was duly horsed. ■ “As for Master Giles,” said the master, as he laid clown the birch, “he well merited a flogging for hi9 astonishing—for his wilful stu pidity If boy9 positively will not profit by my instructions. I am bound, in duty to (bcir parents, to try the effect of castigation. No man grieves more sincerely than I do, at the necessity which exists for using'the birch and cane as instruments of liberal education; and yet unfortunately, no man I verily believe, is compelled to use them more frequently than myself i was occupied for fiiH iiatf an hour, in drumming this identical verb into Giles Of rod, CS ve?terday morning, and you, sir” added he, turning £p Dick, “Yotf, I suppose are quite as great a blockhead vour brother. Now at tend to me, both of yo\i‘—^what’s the past of see?” ' v v ._; Neither of tbeyouog gentlemen rcpl 10 ^- thought as much,” quofh the master.-— “The peribcl of ree is the present of scm-SEE, Saw.” ' / - . “See Saw,” shouted the boys; but that un fortunate verb tvas the stumhJjoghlock.of their ad vancement. They never could comprehend how the perfect of see,could be the present of saw; and days, weeks, months—nay. years after they were still at their endless, and to (hero, incomprehensible game of See Saw.

'2SSf|y | The Rhubarb F/anf—There'are several vari eties of Rhubarb cultivated in G. Britain, for cu linary purposes. .The leaf stalks are extensively used for pies, tarts, file. Its culture for mar ket was commenced there about 1815. Y and now it is said that more than 100 acres of land are appropriated to its culture in the neighbor hood of the metropolis. Wilmot, the straw berry gardener, sends'if hv loads' t6 ' Covent Garden market. It is coming into general no. tice and culture among os. This plant is raised with very little trouble, being a perennial, and is one of the earliest vegetables afforded by (h« Half a dozen plants/ growing at two lee« each way. will supply a family. It is propagated by seed? or olDetts. I have it^irly in April, by a little extra- labour. I plac«Pbarrete, having one or no bead, dVer a few stools; or plants in March and cover and surround them with recent"sta ble manure. The heat thus generated.causes the plant to grow; and the light not having ac cess, the stocks become beautifully blanched and soon reach the top of the cask- The acic of the Rhubarb is very similar in flavour to t hat of the gooseberry.
