OUTWITTING A TAX-GATHERER.
Some writer* have stntrj the number of Is
)an<ls in Strangford Lotigli to he upwards of
two hundred, but it has been ascertained that
there are not more than fifty-four. Some are
inhabited, on others cattle of various kinds
are kept by the proprietors of the opposite
shore. Upon one of them there is a very
extensive rabbit-warren. The individual
who resides on this island derived a very con
riderable income from the sale of the rabbit
skins, and although lie had erected a very
good house, he never had once dreamed of
payingany thing in the shape of excise or
taxes. At length, however, a taxgathcror,
wlio had paid a visit to the neighbors on the
neighboring shore, beheld with anxious gaze
the goodly edifice which presented itself up
on the island, and determined upon visiting it
in the name of his Majesty. The proprietor
of the place having been in the habit of re
ceiving vists fiom persons who came to pur
chase bis skins, and supposing the tax man
to be one of them, sent off a boat to fetch
him to the island.
On reaching the place, the man of taxes
began to make various inquiries as to the
time the house had been erected, the num
ber of windows, hearths, &c. it contained ;
and having gained the desired information,
he immediately demanded, on behalf of his
Majesty a considerable sum, as the amount of
taxes and arrears due upon the place. In
vain the poor man protested against the pro
ceeding as an imposition, in vain lie contend
ed that the demand never having been made
before, he had no right to pay it then. The
stranger was inexorable, and nothing would
satisfy him but the payment of the money
down, or in default thereof, he threatened to
return direct with a party of the army, and
lead, drive and carry away all that he could
find upon the island. At length fearing such
a catastrophe, and finding every effort to sof
ten the hard hcatt of the exciseman com
pletely fruitless, the poor man paid down tiie
amount demanded, and got a rcglar acKnowl
edgment of the same, and the officer having
put the money in his pocket, haughtily desir
ed that he might be put ashore. “ No, no,”
said the old man, “although his Majesty may
compel tne to pay taxes, lie cannot compel
me to keep a boat to row you and the like of
you back and forward.”
After many threats and entreaties, the is
lander at last consented as, he had brought
the visitor over, to give him ‘ a hit of a row’
back again : and both getting into the boat
along w ilh * young lad, son to the proprietor,
they pulled for some time in the direction of
tiie shore. When about midway, however,
the islander quietly laying down his oar, in
formed the oflicer, that although he had pro
mised to give him a ‘ bit of a row,’ he had
never any intention of taking him the entire
way, and that he must do the best lie could,
as he was obliged to return to the island, or
that they would land him on Phaddy Lung (a
large rock which was visible at low water,
but many feet below the surface at full tide)
from w hich, if he shouted long enough, per
haps some of his friends on shore might hear
him, and send a boat to convey him the re
mainder of the distance. On the other pro
testing against, such conduct, and insisting
that they should continue their labor and put
him on shore, the old man putting his oar into
the boat, and desiring his son to do the same,
vciy dryly observed that if the gentleman did
not w ish to quit the boat they would not in
sist upon his doing so, as they ‘could swim
like two water dogs,’ .and thus easily regain
the island : hut that if lie choose to pay for it
they would u illingly land him at any place he
wished. Finding himself outwitted by toe
islanders, the officer deemed it the most advi
sable wav to accede to the terms proposed—
when to his astonishment lie found that the
demand was nothing less than the entire a
mount he had received fertile taxes, together
with a receipt for those of the following year,
and a special engagement that he would ne
ver again return to that island to demand tax
cs of excise. Hard as these were, he was at
length compelled to accede to them, rather
than take in a tide which at that time was
running at the rate of nine miles an hour, the
alternative being left to drift out to sea in an
open boat, with scarcely a hope of relief from
any quarter. It is scarcely necessary to ob
aerve that having paid hack the money and
given the required receipt, the crest fallen
tax man was put safely ashore, and never a
gain visited the island, or trusted himself in
company w ith so tricky a customer as the old
dealer in rabit skins.
At the time when Mr. Peale was exhibit
•t'g his beautiful picture of the Court of
Death in Boston, he sent the late Ilev. Dr. Os*
good a ticket, on which was inscribed, “ Ad
mit the bearer to the Court of Death;” the
old gentleman never having heard of the pic
ture, was utterly confounded—“ I expected
to go before long,” said he, —‘ But Iw as not
prepared for so abrupt a summons.”
Yocmo Wilding Outdone. —ln the coffee
room at the Bush Tavern Bristol, the conver
sation of tiie company touched oil the sub
ject respecting the real or imaginary exis
tence, of mermaids, when one of the party
declared in favour of the affirmative :—‘Oil!
real, beyond all doubt ; 1 have seen seven or
more at one time, the most beautiful creatures
1 ever beheld, with long black hair, and their
young ones sucking at their breasts.” The
worthy and facetious host of the Busli replied,
“Sir Capt. , of the , informed
me that one Sunday morning a merman had
suddenly appeared to his men dressed in gay
attire, with his heir frizzled and powdered a*
white as a full grown cauliflower, and deman
ded to know if the captain was on board.—
The captain soon appeared on dock. The
inetmau addressed him as follows: ‘Sir I shall
feci particularly obliged by your giving or
ders for your anchor to be taken up, as it lays
against uiy street door, and prevents my
mily from going to church.”

The interest which is manifested through
out the State, to be possessed of informa
tion relating to the interesting section
known as the Cherokee country, and tho
importance of all information that can be
obtained in regard to its geographical posi
tion —the quality of its land—its bounda
ries, water courses, roads, &c. has induced
the publishers hereof, at the entreaties of
many persons, by industrious application,
and at considerable expense, to undertake
the publication of this little volume. They
are flattered with the hope, that its useful
ness will be appreciated by all who are in
terested in the acquirement of this impor
tant portion of our State. The publishers
feel assured that they do not over estimate
the information it imparts, and the great
convenience and facility, by which it can
be acquired ; and, altlio’ there tnay be in
accuracies in its descriptive character, (from
the possibility that entirely correct returns
were not always made by the District Sur
veyors) yet. as It is the most correct that
can be obtained, without a personal know
ledge ofevery lot, it must he considered the
best information the nature of the ease ad
mits of. Os one fact, the reader is guaran
teed, that this Book wears a correct and
official stamp —as it was copied with ac
curacy from the Numerical Books, now of
file in the Executive Department of the
State, after those Books were thoroughly
examined by the late Land Lottery Com
missioners. The accuracy and fidelity of
the quality of each lot, was ascertained, by
especial reference to the field notes of tiie
District Surveyors, and their detached plats.
To these desiderata, may he stated, that the
No. of each lot, in its district and section,
by whom drawn, in whose captains district,
and in w hat county, are equally, and entire
ly authentic. It must he a desirable object
to both the drawer, and the purchaser, to
have a Book of the kind we herewith sub
mit to the public; as it embodies in a com
pressed and in a portable form, all the me
moranda information which both purchaser
and seller could have, without occular
knowledge or from information dearly pur
chased, if procured otherwise.
The Book w ill contain a Numerical list of
all the lots drawn in the different sections of
the Land Lottery, excepting such as are
returned third quality; and if any of the
third quality has any improvement on it,
such lot also will be embraced. To each
lot, will be affixed a letter a, b, or c, which
designates the quality; a for th e first, b
for the second, and c for the third ; and have
also attached the Nos. of acres improved—
the drawer’s name, the district in which
lie gave in as fortunate drawer, and the
county in which he resides, and the No. of
his lot, and the district and section in which
it is located. Whenever a district is not
represented paiticulariy, the reader will
learn that all the lots in said district, (as
tn the sth and olher districts,) are returned
third quality —To each district its boundary
is stated, with some brief, but applicable re
marks.
The publishers forbear any further exor
dium of this, their *• little effort”—prefer in g
that its merit and usefulness shall speak
more audibly its own praise. Such as it
is, (and it is hoped.it will be pronounced
pood) is respectiully dedicated to tiie peo

The Thoiuimon C niuH
Property hotter
4S tiie public has sustained |
lottery up to the present ii Q ,
bom recent events which have taker ■
since the last notice, the Proprietor!
it proper to give a succinct history of it
Ihc beginning to the present time■ |,,
out as much as possible what ha.'h™
ready published.
The proprietor sometime before l, eo fl
tlnsLottery to the public, had m, m „
nearly all the property to two person* 5
he owed—one contained the negroes th.
er the lauds Ac.-And as hd believ,
less than half ot its value: however t
view to lake them up before, or at the
they became due, and proceeded on
ins mercantile businsss; but lie ir S
misfortune unable to take up the raon „
and having made many other creniton
perceiving that landed property had I
nearly half its value, and finally findi*
what it would bring that even all h : s m\
would not satisfy bis creditors, unla
gets its value; and having been Unit i
and being anxious to do justice to lu,i
creditors, as well as the mortgagees,
his property in said Lottery. 0
He applied to bis creditors for thui
probation—and amongst them one t
claim is quite inconsiderable, refused,
issued his fi fa (after which others Una
levied on the property, and it was aj
trom the Ist Tuesday in iastAu'nftn
to the Ist Tuesday in Septemlnj,
bought in by two mortgages at cum™
ly small prices— but more than the an
ol the fi ta : and the property left rill
Proprietor, to carry on the Lottery,
creditor s claim being younger llntnot
the money was paid to lhe°eldesl cl*
and he still not paid. On visiting Sam
the Proprietor w as taken by this saw
ditor by casa, and placed in confine*
the tiventy-t lird of last March. Audi
mean time the mortgagees attorney
possession ot the. nearoes offered a
scheme ol said lottery and sold them,
proper to slate that from the salve of lii
there is a larger amounlof money ot
than the amount of the nine negn«i
scheme in saij Lottery. On taking
nearly two months to cunsoU (bcliiit
ally and by letters) a number oftrail
the best course to be taken, the Prop
from their advice, as well as hisownci
lions lias come 'o the conclusion,#
linue the said Lottery ; hut adiuilsl*
have the aid ol' bis country : Hr*
sent a petition lo the next Legisla*
soct; ns ltsits, with a number ts res|*
signers, pray ing leave todrawsaid Li
(and to pa, cash to prize holJersir.i*
negroes to \heuuiiiiiot set forth ia thew
of said neg roes. Then justice will lx
lo purchasers of tickets, and to bis in
oils creditors ; and 1m will feel gr.lt
bis country w hich will verify the oldi
a trieud in need is a friend indeed."
He does not make this appeal to the
lie with a hope of obtaining the la
Timoleon of old by means of cliaiw
fortune—no; he only asks, what a
done by bis state—for its aid so astc
gaily —and only to maintain his sle
of purpose and firmness of mind bj
although poor, lie will be able lo p
remainder of bis days, neither to beg
vv ith past prosperity, nor to ne broksn
by pre c ent nr future adverMty, but
gratified lor having the satisfactionuf'
justice, and for the following very
reasons :—it will balance bis alhirs,!
Ills credit, satisfy bis creditors, anil
juie neither individual nor countryn
peculiar case.
It is therefore requested that Hie ?
sers of 'Pickets remain satisfied uut
known whether the Legislature win
rejected or granted his I'etitiou.—D i
id, all the money will be immediate!
turned by the Agents, but if on'lie
hand the Petition is allowed he will
time lo sell the unsold tickets, and
