We have heretofore, front time to time, given odr readers articles setting forth the inducements for emigration to Texas, out have never, we be lievc, given the reverse picture. We therefore now present the judgment of a highly intelli gent gentleman from Monroe county in this State, upon it, after he had spent most of the l»a>t spring in its exploration. Having fully de scribed the country and its advantages in several nrticles in the “Educational Journal.” fForsyth) he thus concludes: It only remains for me to give your readers ■vgrrente calamo,"—for it must be with a run- ning pen—my objections to Texas, or, in other words, to sltite brietty the reasons why 1 do not like her well enough to cast my lot among her population. I object to her soil and timber, want of market, the aridity of tho atmosphere, ren dering mins very unfrequent when most need cd, the existing state of society, and insalubrity of air ami scarcity of water. 1 shall take these objections up in their ordir and discuss them as briefly as ^ possible. The soil of the whole iff Eastern Texas, without being rich, is porous, absorbing water like a sponge, and as it is, to a considerable extent broken, it is destined to be converted ere long into gullies and red barren hills. Kesides this, the great excess of sand found in every section explored by me proves l>e- yond a peradventure that the prolific and fruc tifying projierttcs it boasts when fresh must soon give way. The soil must soon sink under culture. The .scrubby and small timber also pleads in trum]iet tones against the country.— I take it ujion myself to say, lieing duly sensi ble of the responsibility attending the assertion, that 1 did not, in the whole of my travels thro’ Texas, see a plot of ground of fifty acres or more that had standing on it more timber than would fence it. Of course, the above remarks are only intended for the ridge lands. Inconve nience of market is my next objection to Texas. There aft? several marts, whither the Planters haul their cotton to exchange it for money and the necessaries of life. Hut these places are a long way off from a majority of the growers of this and other commodities made for exchange. This super-added to the boggy roads during the rainy season renders it impossible for them to get their great staple to market rarely sooner than a twelve-month after it is put up in prop er packages. It may la* answered that time will remedy this objection. So it may. But those persons who shall join the annual exodus from our State to Texas with the expectation of soon getting their produce to market by the as- sbtnnce of Railroads, ( will bo doomed to a sad disappointment; for *J am assured from all I could sco anil hear, the imbroglios now existing in Texas touching the construction of Railroads are on the increase, snd will not pretermit for years yet to come. This is honestly my opin ion, and I mention it that no friend or acqi|ain tanec may immigrate thither under mistaken impressions. It may also be remarked that the cxjiense of getting pnxluce to market consumes something like a sixth part of the entire crop.— This is no mean item in the bill of indictment, and should be home in mind l>y all who have an inkling to settle in Texas. The infrequency of rains in Texas is the next item to which I wish to direct the attention of your readers.— Commencing at a parallel of latitude somewhere in Louisiana, rains during the Summer months become more and more infrequent until you reach the table lands of Mexico. So very sel dom does it rain in somo portions of Texas as to defeat every eftbrt cf the agriculturist These nnntinl droughts, together with the devastating effects of various kinds of insects, to which the whole Slate is liable to a greater or less extent lias i-ailed for legislative appropriations with which to enable that portion of her-population to drag out a miserable existence. The want of rain in the country alluded to has not been .sat isfactorily accounted for, but is doubtless owing ton physical cause, and lienee can never be over come or remedied by any earthly power. The planters of Texas may now and then have good •seasons of Summers, but this will only Ik- an exception to the rule. The people of Texas had been blessed with as much rain up to tho time we left her soil, as she had received for the last seven or eight previous years all put together. We had a daily exemplification of this melan choly fart, i ’om was worth over two dollars a bushel from the .'Sabine to the Brazos. Hard drives were frequently made to reach stands where corn and fialder could be bail to feed our horse. But few |>crsons had bread for their children, and much the larger number of the planters were relying Wholly upon the different grasses to keep tip their horses and mules .till they could .secure .I- r— nimiu u UumtitM* *"PPh eomtbisvear, nit i -turuk such has not been the rase !>e1orcin six or eight antecedent years. Rut let me not be misunderstood. The above remarks are alone applicable to the rigid lands. * There are loca tions in the State, the Brazos bottoms for In stance, which, with proper tillage, will general ly yield a sufficiency of corn for the owner’s use. Vet I was informed by many persons who plant these rich lands, that they had not succeeded in getting a good yield for six or'eightyyears Inst past. Others made no bones in saying, Texas was not an agricultural but n grazing country. This is a matter, however, to be left to time and facts, which alone can settle it. The air and water of Texas are not suited to nty tastes or habits. One might get accustomed to the qual ity, hut the quantity subjects all to great incon venience, which can never be remedied by eith er time br ingenuity. The rich settlements will prove to be very sickly, and the thinner por tions of the State, from the constituents of its soil, ntnsi give rise to periodical diseases at cer tain seasons of the year. I know the citizens thither claim to have been very healthy hereto fore, but like causes produce like effects. In all countries occupying the same parallel of latitude, the woodsman's" axe. and the ploughshare of the tiller of the soil, has invariably engendered a constitution o'" the atmosphere, the result of which has proven disastrous to health. Then whv should Texas prove an exception to a rule which has never varied? I will discuss another objection to Texas, and come toaclose. The present organization of society thither is not suited to my habitudes. Yet there are ma ny there that any man would do well to make his samplers. What I shall say will be said of society taken as a unit. Let two of her citizens have a difficulty of whatsoever character, and instead of appealing to the constituted authori ties, eaoh party therein concerned resorts at once to the arbitrament of arms of a savage anil deadly character.. The law of ^exTalionis is also fashionable among them. The Holy Sabbath which should be observed in a becom- witli an assurance that industry and frugality will be attended there as here with. happiness and prosperity. Tlie .Execution of Mary Stewart. (From the seventh volume of the “laves of the Queens of Scotland, by Agnes 15trick1*nd." At Six o’clock on the fatal morning of the 6 th of February, Mary Stuart told her ladies “she had but two hours to live, and bid them dress her as for a festival.” Very minute particulars of that last toilette have been preserved, both by French and English-historians, and a con- tumjiorarv MS. in the Vatican contains a des cription of it from the pen of an eye-witness of her death. It is there stated that she wore a widow’s dress of black velvet, but spangled all over tvitli gold, a black satin pourpointandkir- tle, and under these a petticoat of crimson vc!* vet, with a body of the same color, and a white veil of the most Abdicate texture, of the fashion worn by princesses of the highest rank, thrown over her coif, and descending to the ground: also, which is not mentioned N iu any other ac count, that she had caused a camisole of fine Scotch plaid, reaching’ from the throat t'o the waist, but without a collar, to be prepared the night lie fore, that when her upper garments should be removed, she might escape the distress of appearing uncovered before so many people. While her ladies Were assisting her to dress, she, with thcfcniuiine delicacy ofa reallyjnodest woman, earnestly entreated tficm to lie watch ful over her in the last terrible moment, when, observed slie, "I shall lie incajiable of thinking of this jioor liody. or bestowing any care upon it. Oh, then, fur the love of the blessed Saviour, abandon me not while under the hands of the executioner!" They promised, with streaming eyes, to lie near her ami to cover her liodv as she fell. . Then she entered her oratory alone, and kneel ing liefore the miniature altar, at which'her al moner had liecn accustomed to celebrate piass, opened the gold and jewelled ciboriumin which the Pope had sent her a consecrated wafer with a dispensation to do what had never liefore been lermittcd to one of the laity—administer the Sueliarist to herself preparatory to her death, if denied the ministration of a priest. 11 is impos sible for a Protestant biographer to describe the feelings with which Mary Stuart performed her lonely communion, under circumstances so strange to a member of the Roman Catholic Church. No mortal eye lichcld her iu that hour; but the following Latin prayer is well known to have been extemporized by her during her iast devotions on the morning of her death: • O Domini' Dcu» t ?p«ravi in t> i O care me ,Tesa, none libera me. In darn catena, in misers pens; desidern Langoendo, gemendo et genu flectcndu Adore, implore, at Uberes mo!” “My Lord snd my God I have hoped in Tbee: O Jesos, Sweet Saviour, now liberate me. I have languished for Tbee in afflictions and chains; the coldness of the weather, a large fire was burning. On thescaffold wore placed tho block, the axe, a chair, covered also with black doth, for the Queen, with a cushion of crimson velvet before it, and two stools for tlic Earls of Kent and Shrewsbury. About one hundred gentle men who had been admitted to behold the mourn ful spectacle stood at the lower end of the hall; dy—yea, even of the very assistants in it—pro- but tho scaffold was barricaded, and a strong churned the feelings with which it lind been re- grace i Sabliatarian, among whom the regular obser vances of the Sabbath, by attending Church and praving in the highest places in the synagogue constitutes a genuine Christian. It is not .y- er y one wlio says Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of God, nor shall a rigid observer of God's holy day secure an entrance into the mansions of everlasting blip. The prerequisites to eternal happiness are quite different from this, upon which we may not debate at present- But still it is a day which should be reverenced in a uniform, consistent and becoming jnaonrr, as well bv Christians as moralist# and patriots. That such is the case with the Texians is more than I dare say. There are. however, l)ioso amongst them who both love and fear Go<C »nd who doubtless object to sinful usages of the day set apart in the Bible for rest and religious wor ship and time will eventually give these good citizens sufficient influence and power to eradi cate these as well as other evils. Mcurn and Team” is well understood by this people, and if otic should, in contending for his rights rarry his high kuoweldgo of either one of the otber beyond the legitimate rules of equity, I fear very much from what I have observed, such an mic S he tabooed by those who recognize tmdfoRow a differenteodo oflaws. t Upon Hie whol- then, after summing up, if I am asked wliatmy advioe is to those who entertained a to emigrate to Texas, my advice is, let all tho harelS the meridian of life determine to stick to the generous soil of their birth, and i ' ' m '■ t m:t ' their land and render their dwelling, more com fortable; whilst, on the other hand, if our . . who wish to make planters of tfaenwntvea can ert bnis in theold States on living tonus, let Hum cut loose from their parents and friends, scc k a homo in Louisiana or Texas. In ei i- rr Stoic they Will find a generous, hospitable people, and a theatre of immense magnitude, The wintry morning had dawned before Mary- left her oratory. She then concluded her letter to her royal brother-in-law, Henry III. ofFranoe, by adding several earnest petitions in behalf of her faithful servants, and the final date: “The morning of my death, this Wednesday, 8th Feb ruary. Signed Marie R." She returned to her bed-chamber, where, seat ing herself beside the fire, she began to console her weeping maids, by' declaring the comfort she felt in her approaching release from her long afflictions, and reminded them "that her uncle, the late Duke of Guise, had told herinlicr child hood "that she jiosscssed the hereditary cour age of her race, and he thought she would well know how to die;” yet he liad never anticipa ted the possibility of her suffering the terrible death by which she was about to verily the truth of his prediction. .She sj»oke of the transitory- nature of human felieitv, and the vanity- of earth ly- greatness, whereof An- w«s destined to serve as an example; having been Queen of the realms of France and Scotland, tlie one by birth, the other by marriage; and after lieinc at the suin-- mit of ail worldly honors, had to submit herself to the Iuimls of the executioner, though iniio- itioBr—tilt crime alleged against, her being only a*flimsy- pretext for her destruction. At the foot of the stairs—which, on account of her lameness, slic descended slowly and with great difficulty, supported on each side by two of Paulet's officers, who held her up under her arms—she was met l>y Andrew Melville, who was now permitted to join her. He threw him self on his knere; before her, wringing his hands hi an uncontrollable agony 6f grief, the violence Of which almost shook the majestic raininess she hail minenu pwamc — rctwisuir, it icutie, weeping bitterly, "that ever it should be my hard hap to carry back such heavy tidings to Scotland as that "my good and gracious Queen and Mistress has licori beheaded Sn England." "Weep not, Melville, my good and faithful ser vant,” she replied, ‘‘thou shouldst rather rejoice that thou shall now see the end of the long troub les of Marv Stuart; know, Melville, that this world is but vanity and full of sorrows. 1 am Catholic, tliou Protestant; but as there is but one Christ. I charge the in llis name to bear witness that I die firm to my religion, a true Seotdiwoman, and true to France. Commend nie to my dearest and most sweet son. Tell him 1 have done notliiug to prejudice him in ltis realm, nor to disparage his dignity; and that although 1 could wish he were of my religion. |fhe will live in the fear or God, according to that in which he has liecn nurtured, I doubt not he sliall do well. Tell him, from luy example, never to rely too much on human aid, but to seek that which is from above. If he follow my advice, lie shall have the blessing of Godin Heaven, as l now give him mine on earth.” She raised her luind as she concluded, and made the sign of the cross, to bless him in his absence, and her eyes overflowed with tears. May God,” continucdshe, “forgive them that have tliirstod for mv blood as tho hart doth for the brooks of water." 0 God, who art the au thor of truth, and the truth itself thou knowest that I have always wished the union of England and Scotland.” " One of the commissioners, doubtless the pittiless Earl of Kent, here inter rupted her by reminding her “that the time was wearing apace,” ’ Farewell," she said, “good Melville. Farewell. Pray for tliy Queen and mistress." The passionate grief of her faithful servant brought infectious tears to her eyes. She bowed herself on his neck and wept; and, with like sensibility as her cousin, Lady Jane Grey, had kissed arid embraced Fcckenlism on the scaffold, so did she vouchsafe, as sovereign might, without disparagement to regal dignity, or departure from feminine reserve, the like af- guard of the sherifl’s and earl Marshal’s men environed it to prevent tho possibility ofa rescue. The dignified composure and melancholy sweetness of her countenance, hi which the in tellectual beauty of reflective middle age bad su perseded the charms that in youth had been cel ebrated by all the poets of France and Scotland, her majestic and intrepid demeanor, made a pro found impression upon every one present when Mary Stuart and her sorrowful followers enter ed the hall of death. She surveyed the sable scaffold, tla- block, tlie axe, tlie executioner and spectators undauntedly as she advanced to the foot of the scaffold. Then she paused, for she required assistance, and Sir Amvas Paulet tendered her his hand, to aid her in ascending the two steep steps by which it was approached. Mary accepted the prottered attention of her per secuting jailor with the queenly courtesy that was natural to her. "I thank you. sir,” said she, when he had helped her t-» "mount the fa tal stair; “this is the last trouble I shall ever give you." Having calmly seated herself in tlie chair that had been provided for her, with the two carls standing on cither side, and the exccutipuer in front holding the axe, with the edge towards her. Beale sprang upon the scaffold with un feeling alacrity, and read the death-warrant in a loud voiec. She listened to it with a serene and even smiling countenance; but, as liefore, bowed her head and crossed herself when it was concluded, in token of her submission to the will of God. . "Now, madam.” said tha Karl of Shrewsbury, "you see what you have to do." She answered briefly and emphatically, do your duty." Then she asked for her aliiioner "that she might pray with him; anil this being de nied, Dr. Fletcher, the dean of Peterborough, standing directly before her without the rails, and bending his body very low, began to ad dress her. -Mr. Dean, trouble not yourself nor me,” said the Queen, - for know that I am set lied in tlie ancient Catholic ami Roman faith, in defence whereof, by GodTs grace, Iinindtospond lay blood." -‘Madam,’’ replied the dean, ‘change your opinion, and ripctjt you of your fonner wickedness.’ 'Good Mr. Dean,’ rejoined she, “trouble not yourself any more about this mat ter. I was lx>rn in this religion, and am resolv ed to die in this religion." The carls, perceiv ing her resolution was nut to be shaken, said, “Madame, will you pray- for your Grace with Mr. Dean, that you may have your mind light ened with the true knowledge* of God and his the butcher-work was accomplished, and tlie severed head, streaming with blood, was held up to the gaze of the people. •‘God save Queen Elizabeth! exclaimed the Dean ofPeterborough; one solitary voice alone responded ‘Amen!’—it was that of the Earl of Kent The silence, the tears, and groans of the witnesses of the trage- dr—vm. of tho vm% nCCIctoilte m It ga*de<l ank you; but to pi ner, who are not of the same religion with me, were a sin.’ The earls then bade the Dean *sa/ on according to his own pleasure.’ This he diik not by reciting the beautiful office for tlie dyint or the burial service from our Anglican Churci, but in a bitter polemic composition of his ownj tending neither to comfort nor edification. Ma ry battled him not, but began to pray with ab sorbing and tearful earnestness from" lier own breviary and the psalter, uniting portions from the 81st, 51st, and 91st Psalms. She prayed in Latin, in French, and finally in English, "fur God to pardon her sins and forgive her foes; for Christ’s afflicted church; for the peace and prosperity of England and Scotland; for her son, and for Queen Elizabeth; not with the ostenta tion of a Pharisee, but the holy benevolence of a dying Christian. At the conclusion of her last prayer she arose, anil holding up the cru cifix, exclaimed, "As thy arms, O Christ! were extended on the cross, even so’ receive me into ilic anus of Thy mercy, and blot out all mv sins with Tliy most precious blood." “Madam.’’ interrupted t.hc Eiarl of Kent, “it were l -“-r Yrtti to oevlit.uDuili it UinjKT\ , 8IHI UCflr Him in your heart." “Can I." she mildly an swered, "hold the representation of the suffer ings of my crucified Redeemer in my hand with out .hearing him. at the sunn* time, in my heart?” The two executioners, seeing her preparing to make herself ready for the block, knelt be fore her and prayed lier forgiveness. -I forgive you anil all the world with all my heart,’ she re plied,’ Tor I hope this death will’give an end to all my troubles.’ They otr«~a *T removing her mantle, but slic drew back, at o requested them not %*£&&£££■ a of honor, nor to disrobe be fore "so numerous a company.' Then beckon ing to Jane Kennedy and Elizabeth Curie* who were on their knees in tears below, they came to her on the scaffold; but when they saw for what purpose they were required, they began to scream and cry, and were too much agitated at first to render "her the assistance she requir ed so that she began to take out the pins her self a thing to which she was not accustomed. ‘Do not weep,’ said she. tenderly reproving them, ‘I am very happy to leave tliis.woriit You ought to rejoice to see me die in so good a cause. Are you not ashamed to yveep? Nay, if you do not give over these lamentations I must send you sway, for y.ou know I have promised for yon.’ Then she took oil" her gold pomander, chain, and rosary, which she liad previously desired one of her ledics to convey to the Countess' of Arundel ns a last token of her regard. The ex ecutioner seized it, and secreted it in his shoe. Jane Kennedy, with the resolute spirit of a brave Scotch lassie," snatched it from him, and a strug gle eltsiwd. Mary, mildly interposing, said, '•Friend, let her have it, she will give you more than its value in money;’ -but he suOfenty re plied, ‘it is iny perquisite.’ ‘It would have been strange, indeed;’ observes our authority with sarcastic bitterness, ‘if this poor Queen had met with courtesy from an English hangman, who had experienced so little from the nobles of tliat country—witness tlie Earl of Shrewsbury and his wrfe.j • Before Mary proceeded further iu her prep arations for the block, she took a last farewell of her weeping ladies, kissing, embracing, and blessing them, by signing them with the cross, which benediction they received on their knees. Her uppergarments lieing.removed, she re mained in her petticoat of crimson velvet and camisole, which laced behind, and covered her arms with a pair of crimson velvet sleeves. Jane Kennedy now drew from her pocket the gold- bordered handkerchief Mary had given her to bind her eyes. Within tins slic placet! a ‘Cor pus Christi-cloth,' probably the 'satuc in which the consecrated wafer sent to her l»y the Pope liail been developed. Jane folded it cornel-wise, kissed it, and with trembling hands prepared to execute this last office; but sheandhercora- panion burst into a fresh paroxysm of hysteri cal sobbing and crying. Mary placed her finger un her lips reproving ly. ‘Hush,’ said she, *( have promised for you s weep not, but pray for me,’ When thev had e noil the handkerchief over the face of their ovcil mistress they were'compelled to Vrith- draw from the scaffold; and She was left alone to close up the tragedy of life herself, which she did with her wonted courage and devotion.’ Kneeling on (lie cushion, she repeated in her usually clear, firm voice—•/« te JOomine apera- rr.’ ‘In thee. Lord, have 1 hoped; let me never be put to coufusiou.’ Being then guided by the executioners to find the block, she bowed lier head upon it intrepidly, cM laimingasshedidsa •Inmunus tua>.' 'Into thy hands, O Lord, I commend my spirit.’ The Earl of Shrewsbury raised his baton, in performance of bis duty as eari marshal, to give the signal ft >r the coup-de- grace, but he averted his head at the same time, and covered his lace with his hand to conceal his agitation, and streaming tears. A momen tary pause ensued, for the executioner’s assis tant perceived that the Queen, grasping the block firmly with both lmnds. was resting her chin upon them, and that they must have been cut off or mangled if he had not removed them, which did by drawing them down and holding them tightly in his own, while his companion struck her with the axe a cruel but ineffectual i blow. Agitated alike by the courage of the roy- | al victim and the sobs and groans of the sym pathizing spectators, he missed his aim and in flicted a deep wound on the side of the skulL She neither screamed nor stirred, but her suf fering were too sadly testified by the convul sion of her features, when after the third blow, - ^ ■ shared her prison, and was following her to death. She who had experienced the ingratitude of a Moray, a Lethington. and a Mar could well ap preciate the faithful love of Andrew Melville. Aunt her gentleman came to kiss Mary Stuart's hand, and bidbeptarewell on her way to exe cution, with demonstrations of deep respect and tender sympathy, together with expressions “of regret and indignation that her blood should be eruellv shed while under his roof.” This was Sir William FitzAVilliam, of Milton, who at dial time held FodieringhayJCastle on lease from die Crown. Of a very different spirit from Sir Atn- yas Paulet, this fine old'English gentleman had shown the 1uv.1l prisoner all the kind attention in his power." Mary thanked him for his “gen tle cntreatnicnt of her while in his house,” and begged him “to accept, and keep as a memori al of her grateful appreciation of his courtesy, the portrait o! the King, her son, which he would find hanging at her bed's-head, being lier last remaining possession that she had not bequeath ed.” Tho procession proceeded in the following or der: First came die sheriff and his men ; next, Mary’s keepers, Sir Amyas Paulet and Sir Drue Drury; the Earl of-Kent and Beale; then the Earl of Shrewsbury, as Eari Marslial, lienring his baton wised, "immediately proceeding die Royal victim, who having rallied all the ener gies of her courageous spirit to vanquish bodily nulnnity, moved with a proud, linn stop. She was followed by Melville, who bore her train, and her two weeping ladies, clad in rcouniing weeds. The rear was brought up by Bourgoigne, Gourion,* and Gervais, her three medical atten dants. i . .

As wc have got into Sacred Poetry, we may as well remark, as an inplexiplicable curiosity, the intense badness of rhyme In most of the psalms and hymns used in public and private worship. Watts. Weslcv, William Co .vpcr, Junes Mont gomery. Kirke White, and Thomas Moore arc almost the only poets who, writing upon sacred subjects have adhered to rhy thm.as well as to ap- jnt/pmwncss or expression. Vve nave rarefy fallen upon something very different from the usual poetical paraphrases of Sacnil Writ. It i: a versification of the Lord's Prayer—morium, the brevity aiidconccnthition of which ough tin bc a lesson to those who indulge in many words when they pour out prayer and praise. * It has lately licen published in London, is composed as a "duct, and Iiannonizcd for four Voices, with an accompaniment for the organ or piano-forte! It runs thus: Our Heavenly Father, hear our prayei ; Thy name be hallowed every where: Thy kiugdom come; Thy perfect will In earth, as beaveu. let ail fulfil; Give this day’s bread that we may lira: Forgive our sius as we forgive, Help us temptation to withstand, From evil shield us by thy hand: Now nud for ever unto Thee, Tlie kingdom, power, aud glory be. Amen. Piquant Anecdote. A spice merchant at Constantinople, carrying piece of fine clofli to a tailor, desired to liavc a cloak or tunic made of it. and inquired if there was enough. The artist having measured the stuff, declared it sufficient, and then requested to know the cost of it. Five sequins,” replied the customer, “was the priec : and considering the quality, that is not at all dear." The tailor paused a moment. “I am a beginner in the trade,” said he to the spice dealer, at length, “and money is an object to me. Give me two sequins and 1 will show you how you may save three in this affair.” “I agree,” said the other, and tlie money was produced and paid It is well!” said the man of the needle. I nm a person of mv word. This cloth lias cost 5ve sequins, and I have promised to save you three. Take it tosomc other tailor, and Al lah directs you to one of more experience—for I have never made such a dress as you want, and ifl attempt it, it will be spoiled." This reminds us of an anecdote related of Sheridan, who went to a hair dresser’s to order a ; 1-1 lieing m-.-iMiivd. the harbor, who was UK ral soul, invited the orator to take some rc- freshments in an inner room. Here he showed him so much genuine hospitality that Sheridan's heart was touched. TVhtn they rose from the ta ble. and were separating, the latter looking the barber in the face, said: -,-r •On reflection, 1 don’t intend that you shall make mv wig." Astonished, and with a blank visage, tiic other exclaimed— “Good Heaven! Mr. Sheridan, how can I have displeased you ?" “Why. look, voi." said Sheridan, "you are an honest fellow; T repeat it, you shan’t make the wig, for I never nitt-nd to pay for it. I'll go to another less worthy son of the craft. A Miserly Bog I recollect :; Miietdarly large dog ofthiebreed about ten vtXrs ago, in pos-ession of Mr. Grier son of N. Hinover street. Edinburgh, near the foot of the mound, which possessed unusual in telligence. Among other eccentricities, this dog followed the profession cf mcdicaney, and regularly solicited the charity ofthc passou-by. On receivhg a halfpenny, his habit mas if hun gry. to proceed at once to the shop of Mr. Nel son, at thi corner of Bose Street, and purchase a biscuit; hut it sometimes happened that lie put by his halfpence until the calls of appetite returned, when lie would goto his repository, take th; money to ihc baker's and make bis pur chase. A servant of Mr. Grier-on's accidentally cane upon this sagacious and provident ani- malh boarding place on one occasion, where were found five-pence halfpenny in halfpence. The dog chanced to enter al tho moment of the dis- cov-WV, and with a growl of displeasure he rush ed fo the spot, snatched up his wealth, proceed ed it full speed to tho shop and dashed the mon ey in the counter, harking vehemently at the siicie time, probably deeming it safer to turn it inx> bread at once, "than risk bt-ing robbed by keeping it. This dog was stufl'ed at his death, and is preserved in tlie Edinburgh Museum of Natural History. New Steam Saw Mill.

'11:fa is a pnrely vegetable compound, prepared on atrictly scientific principles, after tho manner of the celebrated Holland Profeasor, Boerhave. Because of its great success in moat of the European States, its introduction into the United States was intended more especially for those of our fatherland scattered here ana there over the face of this mighty country. Meeting with great success among them, I now offer it to the American pnblio, knowing that its truly wonderful medi.cinal virtues must be acknowledged. It is particularly recommended to those persons vrhoro constitutions may have been impaired, by the continuous use of ardent spirits, or other forms of dissipation. Generally instantaneous in effect, it finds its way directly to the sest of life, thrilling and quickening every nerve, raising up the drooping spirit, and, in fact, infusing new health and vigor in io system. Notice.—Whoever expects to find this a beverage will be disappointed; but to the sick, weak and low spirited, it will prove a grateful aromatic cordial, possessed of singular remedial properties.
