JAMES C. MORGAN.
Mccon, August 15, 1833. 47
'I’he Metropolitan Magazine introduces thefol.
lowing new character in the excellent story of
“Peter Simple.”
THE LYING CAPT \ IN.
Capt ain Kearney certainly dealt in the marvel
lous to admiration, and really told Iiis stories with
such earnestness, that I actually believe that he
thought he was telling the truth. Never was
there such an instance of coufirined habit. Tell
ing a 1 story of a cutting out expedition, he said,
“The French captain would have ‘fallen by my
hand, but just as I levelled my musket, a bail
came, and cut oil'the cock of the lock as clean as
if it was done will! a knife—a very remarkable in
stance,” observed he.
“Not equal to what occurred in a ship I
in,”replied the first licutennut, “when the second
lieutenant was grazed hy a grape,shot, which cut
off one of his whiskers, and turned round his head
to ascertain what was the matter, another grape
shot came and took off the other. Now that’s
tvbat 1 call a close shave.”
“Yes,” replied Captain Kearucy, “very close
indeed, if it were true: but you’ll exfcuse me, Mr.
Pliillott, but you sometimes tell strange stories,
I do not mind it myself, hut the example is not
good to irfy young rotation here, Mr. Simple.”
“Captain Kearney, - ’ replied the first lieutcu
ant, laughing veiy immoderately; do you know
what the not called the kettle?”
‘•No, sir, I do not,” retorted the captaiu, with
offended dignity. “Mr. Simple will yeu take a
glass of wine?”
I thought that this little brouillcrie would have
checked ihe captaiu; it did so. but only for a few
minutcs(;whcn ho again - coijimenccd - . The first
lieutenant observed that It would be necessary to
let water into the ship every raoruiug and pump
it out, to avoid the smell of the bilge water.
“There are worse smells than bilge water,” re
plied the captain.—Whatdo you think of a whole
ship’s company being nearly poisoned with otto
of roses? Yet that occurred to me iu the Medi
terranean. I mean off Smyrna looking for a
French ship that was to sail to France, with a
pacha - on hoard, as an Ambassador. I knew she
)
would be a good prize, and was looking sharp out
when one morning wo discovered' her on the lee
how. \Ve made all sail, but she walked away
front us bearing gradually till we were both be
fore the wind and at night lost sight of her. As I
knew she was bound to .Marseilles, I made all sail
to fall in with her again- The wind was light
and variable; but five days 'afterwards, as I
laid in my cot,just befere daylight I smelt a very
strong smell blowing in at the weather port,
which %vas open; and after snuifiug at it three or
four times, Ikuewif to he the otto of roses I seiit
for the officer of the watch aud asked him fi
there wa5 anything iu sight. He 'feplifcd that
there was not; I then ordered him to" sweep the
horizon with his glass, and look w ell out to wiud-
ward. As the wind freshened the; smell be
came more powerful. I ordered him to get the |
royal yards across, and have all ready to make
sail, for 1 knew that the Turk must lie near us
At daylight there lie wa3, just three milek/aliead
iu the wind’s eye. But although he beat us going
free, he was no match for us on awiud, aud befon
noon we had possession of him aud all his harem
By-the-by, I could tell you a good story abut
the ladies. She was a very valuable prize au
among other things,, she had a puncheon of otto
of rosesau board ”
Whew!” cried the first lieutenaut. “What
whole puncheon?”
Yes,”, replied the captain, “a Turkish pun
cheon—i>bt quite so large, perhaps; as. ours, ou
board; their weights and measures are different
I took out most of the'vaiuables iulo tlie brig I
commanded—about 2U.000 sequins—carpets—
and among the '.rest, this cask of otto of roses,
hicii we had smelt three miles off. We hud it
safe on hoard, when the mate of the hold, not
slinging it properly, it fell to the spirit room with
a run, and was stove to pieces. Never was such
a scene; my first lieutenant aud several men on
deck fainted; and the men in the hold were
j brought up Iifeless-^-it was some time before they
[ were recovered. We let the wafer into the brig,
and pumped it out, but nothing would-take away
the smell, which was so overpowering, that be
fore I could get to Malta I had forty men ou the
sick list. \\ hen 1 arrived there 1 turned the
mate out-of the service for his Carelessness. It
was not until after haviffg smoked the brig, and
finding that of little use, after having stink Tier for
three weeks, that the sntCll was at all bearable;
hut oven then, it could never be eradicated, the
admiral sent the brig home, and she was sold out
of the service—khey could do nothing with her at
the dock yards. • She was broke! up. auil ‘bought
by the people a! 'Tunbridge wells, who tiseil her
timbers for turning fabev' articles, which, smell
ing as they did, so strong of otto of roses, proved
very profitable.

that ifiey might also he considered, inhabitants of

twenty-nine sermons have expressed the result of
all mv reading, experience and. reflection, in a
manner more satisfactory to cae than I could have
done in the best days of my strength. - r
The m ist afflictive circumstances that I have
witnessed m the lot of hamanity, are the narrow
views, the unsocial humours, the fastidious scorn,
and repulsive temper of all denominations, ex

I cannot conclude this letter without adding an
anecdote. One of tnezealpus medicants for ;ha
contributions to the funds of .Missionary Societies,
called ouageirtlenia.il iti 1!a v eibill/W**- requested •
his charity—the geinlerani. deih'uod subscribing,
but added, that there are iu and about the town
of——. nine clergyman, ministers of nine congre-
gatioiis. not otiedjf- whom -liyes on ferms of civili
ty with auy ether, will admit none other into his
pnlpft, nor be permitted to go iuto the pulpit of
any other. Now if you will raise a fund to con
vert tfese nine clergyppu t6 Christianity, I will
contribute as much as any other inau.

The Charler.ktn Mercury pays the following
compliment to the Troup party of Georgia: ,- The
fact is, tho Troup party have, with 40me, shades
of difference from Carolina, been- tnillifiers all
along; the cordial concurrence with us has been
prevented by Considerations' about men. I t is no-
| tiling strange that, considerations about men,
should now induce them to sustain their princi
ples, though avowed under their proper name.”
Splendid Bedstead.—There lias been lately ex
hibited in the Palace of the Tamedo, at St.
Petersburg?!, a-ktatc bed, constructed at the royal
manufactory.Hy order of the Emperor, to be sent
as a present tc^ the Schah of Persia. It is formed
of solid crystal, resplendent with ornaments. It
is ascended by steps of blue glass, and lias a foun
tain underneath, so contrived as to throw out on.
each side jets of odoriferous waters. The effect
when tho chandler is lighted up is absolutely daz
zling, as it has the appearance of.myiiads of dia
monds.—Galignani's Messenger.
Tight Pants—Have a very fair prospect of
saoii becoming out of fashion, at least with the
candidates for matrimony. ;
A-lew days si nee a young gentleman who was
as the term is, “engaged to be married-to a
buxom young lass in the’ cotthp v, procured his
wedding suit, and for fashion’s sake, had his pan
taloons made tight knee'd, which exposed the
shape of ,1 pair ofiirafisi bearing a striking resem
blance to the handles of a whtei-barrb’.v set up
on end. Thus equipped he proceeded at the time
appointed to claim his ‘ - d*-; r Peggy.” The mo
ther, on seeing her intended son-in-law thus sud
denly transformed into a monkey—alias, a dan
dy—screamed outto hgrdaughter. “Peggy, ifPe-
ter can’t afford cloth enough to make a decent pair
of trowsdrs, he’ll neveHie able to buy the child a
frock - ” and raising the brootn stick she forthwith
beat a retreat.—^Petcr did retreat, and lias not
been heard of since. Who, after this, would
thiuk of wearing tight pants?
