AMUSING ANECDOTE.
A few years ago, towards the dusk of eve
ning, a strauger in a travelling sulkey was
leisure!; pursuing his wav towards a tav
ern situated near the foot of a tnountuin, in
one of the Western States. A little in ad
vance ofltitn a negro, returning from plough,
was singing the favorite Ethiopian melody
•of
“ Gwine down tn shin bone alley.
Long time ago.”
Thestraoger bailed him, “ hallo !•—un
cle ! —you ! —snow-Ball !”
“ Salt r” said blacky, holding up his hor
ses.
“ Is that the Half-way House ahead,
ponder ?”
“ No, sah, dal Massa Billy Lemon’s O
-W-l!’
“ Hotel, eh —Billy Lemon ?
“ Yes, sah—yon know Mass Billy f he
used to lib al de motif o’ Cedar cii< lo—he
done move now do——keeps monsous nice
lavun now, 1 tell you !’
" Indeed I”
“ Yes sah, you stop dah dis ebenin 1
spec ! all spectable gentlemen put up dah.
You < haw backuh mass ?” “ Yes, Sambo,
here’s real Cavendish for you.”
“ Tattkee, massa, tankee sah; Quash my
name.”
“ Quash, eh
“ Yes, sah, atyour service. Ooh,” grunt
ed the delighted African, “ dis is nice ; he
better an green fiber; tankee sail, tan
kee.”
“ Well, Quash, what kind of a gentleman
is Mr. Lemon
“ Oh, he nice man, sah, nmnsous nice
man* sah, nmnsous nice man ; empeitan
genplemtin in de fits stile, and B take care
t)v de houses. I'longs to him, and do 1
say it, Mass Billy mighty clebbey man;
be funny too —teil heap o’ stories bout
ghosses, and spirits, notwithstandin he (raid
o;i ’em, he self do, my ’pinion.
“ Afraid of Ghosts, eh said the trav
eller musing. “ Well, go ahead Mr. Quash ;
as its getting late, I’ll tarry with this Mr.
Lemon io-night.”
•' Y'es, sah, gee up, liea ! go long live
ly and setting olfat a brisk trott, follow
ed by the traveller, the musical Quash a
£ain broke out in
“ Gwine down to shin-bone alley- ”
The burthen “ Long time ago” was ta
ken up by some one apparently in an adja
cent corn-field, which occasioned Quash to
prick up his ears with some surprise; he
continued hower with
“ Dah 1 meet ole Joliny Gladden.”
And the same voice again responded from
the field,
“ Long time ago !”
“ Who dat said the astonished negro,
checking suddenly his horses and looking
round on every side for the cause of his
surprise.
“Oh never mind ; drive ahead snow
ball, it’s some ofyour masters spirits, 1 sup
pose.”
Quash, in a very thoughtful mood, led
the way to the tavern without uttering ano
ther word. Halting before the door, the
stranger was very soon waited upon by the
obliging Mr. Lemon, a bustling talka
tive gentleman, who greeted bis customer
with,
“ Light, sir, light—here, John! Quash
—never mind your umbrella sir—here,
Qnash, take off that rug —give me your
whip, sir, take off that trunk—walk in, sir
—John, take out the chair box—come, sir
—and carry this horse to the stable—do
you prefer him to stand on a dirt floor,
sir ?”
“ If you please, sir ; he’s rather particu
lar about his lodgings.’
“ Carry him to the lower stable, Quash,
and tend to him well—l always like to see
horses well tended, and this is a noble crit
ter, too, continue 1 the landlord, slapping
him on his back.
“ Take care will you, ” said the horse.
“ What the d■ - —I exclaimed the land-
lord starting back.
“ A’one ts ytntr familiarity," said the
horse, looking spitefully around at the as
tonished tavern keeper.
“Silence Belzabub, said the traveller,
caressing the animal ; and turning to the
landlord, he observed— 4 You must excuse
him, sir, he’s rather an aristocratic horse—
the effect of education sir.”
“ He’s the devil sir.”
“ Wo hoa, Belzabub ! loose the trases,
Quash, what are you staring at ? he wont
eat you.”
Come Landlord,' said Belzabub, “ /
want iny oats."
Quash scattered—the landlord backed
tip into the porch, and the traveller was
fain to jump into his vehicle and drive
round in search of the stables, himself.
Having succeeded to his satisfaction in
disposing of his horse, he returned to the
tavern.
Anon supper came on—the eggshad all
apparently young chickens in them—th?
landlord was in confusion at such a morti
fying circumstance, and promised the trav
eller amends from a cold pig—which as he
inserted the carving fork into it, uttered a
piercing squeal w hich was responded to by
a louder one from the landlady. Dow n went
the knife and fork, and the cold perspira
tion began to grow in large beads upon the
forehead of the poor landlord as be stood
looking fearfully at the gruiiter ; his atten
tion was soon taken, however, by voices
from without, calling—
“ Hilloa ! landlord !”
“Aye; coming, gentlemen— moretrav
ellws—do help yourself, sir.”
“ Landlord.”
“Corning, gentlemen—here, John, a
light—bring a light to the door—Sally,
wait on the gentleman’—and out the land
lord bounced, followed by John with lights;
but soon returned with a look ofdisappoint
ment ; he declared that there was no living
being w ithout. The voices called again—
and the landlord alter going out returned
a second time declaring his belief that the
whole plantation was haunted that night by
evil spirits.
The stranger presently arose from the ta
ble and withdrew his chair to the fire, hav
ing made a pretty hearty supper from the
eggs and young porker, their cries to the
contrary notwithstanding.
That night, rumor saith, Mr. Billy Lem
on slept with the bible under his head, and
kepta candle burning; and those who pass
there to this day, may, upon close examina- I
tion discover the hee ls of’ old horses shoes;
peering over the door casement, as a bul
wark against witches, hobgoblins and allo
ther evil spirits.
Having ascertained the name of his guest,i
in the morning, mine host proceeded to
make out his bill—
“ Mr. J. S. Kenworthy,
To William Lemon, Dr. See.”
This same Mr. Kenworthy, was recently
a passenger on board the steamboat Colum
bia, from Norfolk to Washington City,
w hen the violent altercation took place in
of the berths, between three or four dilier
ent individuals, for precedence. He is said
to be something of a wag, and withal one
of the most accomplished Y entriloqnistsol
the present day.
General Bennett, of the New York Morning
Herald, says Col. Webb has again knocked him
down in Wall street. Ile gives quite a glowing
account of the affair. He says—“ As soon as I
found mvselfattacked, I turned upon him. His
superior personal strength, which God Almigh
ty in his wisdom has given him, was altogether
too powerful for me to contend with.” lie says
further—“ As to intimidating me or changing
my course, the thing cannot Le done. Neither
Webb nor any other man shall,or can,intimidate
me. 1 tell the honest truth in my paper, and
leave the consequences to God.—Could 1 leave
them in better bands I 1 may be attacked—l
may be assailed—l may be killed—l may be
murdered, — But 1 never will succumb—l nev
er will abandon the cause of truth, morals, and
virtue. It is not and never was in James Wat
son Webb to intimidate or frighten from the ex
ercise of his rights James Gordon Bennett, if
the public authorities do not choose to protect
the peace of the city, and secure peaceable
men in the enjoyment of their rights, I shall
carry arms for my own protection. It is pain
fid—it is shocking—it is lamentable in a civili
zed community—where we have a hundred
spires pointing to Heaven, which is inhabited bv
Christian men and Christian women, to be obli
ged to resort to deadly weapon for the protec
tion of life and existence.”
NEW-BEDFORD, MAY 28.—Late from
the Sandwich Islands—Another Massacre—
Loss o f the Ship Independence.— The ship A
washonks, Captain Proctor, arrived at Fal
mouth, on Saturday last, 115 days from the
Sandwich Islands. Capt. Proctor, gives the
particulars of the massacre of another crew by
the natives of the South Sea Islands. The
details as furnished are as follows. “ The
Schooner Honduras, Capt. Scott of Boston, and
the Thetis, Capt. Rogers, of Honolulu, (Sand
wich Islands,) sailed Irom the latter place on
the 9th of May, 1835, for a shelling voyage a
mong the isles of the North Pacific Ocean.
Shortly after leaving, a mutiny took place on
board the Thetis, in which Capt. Rogers, and
his mate, were killed by having their heads
cut off while asleep on the deck with an ax.
The trading master of the schooner, hearing the
alarm, came on deck with his cutlass, and after
fighting for some time, succeeded in killing the
ringleader, when he took command of the ves
sel, and reached the Island of Ascension, where
the Honduras had before arrived. The Hon
duras left soon after fora cruise amongthe neigh
boring Islands, and on the 23d of August, hav
ing her foremast carried away, and being in
want of provisions, went into Strong’s Island,
one of the Kingsmill group, lying in lat. 5 12
N. long. 162 58 East. On the day of her ar
rival while the vessel was filled with people and
the Captain and eight men were on shore, the
natives commenced an attack, in which 13 men,
including the Captain and the party on shore,
were murdered. The mate, Mr. YVilliani Wil
liams, with the assistance of a boy, succeeded
in driving the natives from the schooner and
worked her out of the harbor, although she
grounded several times. He arrived at Ascen
sion on the 3d of September, in great distress,
but shipped a native crew and continued the
voyage. The Honduras and Thetis, both ar
rived at Honolulu on the 4th of January.
The ship Independence, Capt. Brayton, of
Nantucket, with 2100 barrels Sperm Oil, was
lost on Starbuck’s Island in the month of Jan
uary last. The mate and part of the crew had
arrived at Tahita, where he had chartered a
vessel and was to return for the purpose ofsav
ing the Oil.
The Awoshonks was put in command of
Capt. Proctor, by J. C. Jones, Consul at Oubu,
and ordered home. She has several passengers
from the Islands, among whom is the Rev. Jo
seph Goodrich, lady and five cnildren ; Mrs. P.
A. Brinsmade, two children anj servant; Mrs.
R. Johnson,and Miss Mary Warren; all of
the Sandwich Island Mission, and two natives
of the Islands, and several in the steerage.
Latest From Mexico.—The New Orleans
Courier of the 29th ult. says,—“A letter, under
date of Tampico, May 17th, received by the
schooner Ataianto, arrived this morning, states
that the capture of Santa Anna and his officers
had reached there via Mattmoras. The report
was, that himself and his officers had been shot
by the Texians. This, as might be expected,
caused a great deal of excitement against all for
eigners, v> ho apprehending some serious results
from an infu dated mob, waited on the Commad
dant, who assured them that he had taken meas
ures to suppress any breach of the peace. An En
glish sloop of war off Tampico, on the eve of
sailing, had been requested by the British Consul
to postpone her departure fora few days.
‘•A postcript to a letter of the 18th represents
that order had been restored.
“A respectable commercial house of this city
received this morning a letter from Tampico,
bearing the same date as the preceding one, an
nouncing that an extraordinary courier had ar
rived there, with the intelligence of the capture
of Santa Anna, and the defeat of one division of
his army. The other four divisions, commanded
by Generals (Jrrea, Gotta, Filisola, and Sesma,
were marching on the Texians. These four di
visions amount to six thousand men. It is fur
ther stated that an additional force of four thou
sand troops were to leave San Louis, to join the
forces already in Texas.”— Sav. Georgian.
It is rumored that the mail stage on th
Florida route from north to south has also
been assaulted by the Indians, and that it has
in consequence, been for the present discon
tinued. If this is so, all mail communication
between the stateseastand west of the Creek
territory is cut off, except by awestern rout.
In anticipation of such event, the Post
Master General has di ret ted all the mails
from the north for New Orleans, Mobile,
and Post Offices generally in that section,
to be sent from Baltimore or Washington
over the Cumberland road to Wheeling,
and thence down the Ohio and Mississippi
rivers by the steamboat mail lines now in
operation. This is a communication that
cannot be interrupted, and although circu
itous will insure at least a safe and certain
intercourse between the north and New-
Orleans.
We regret to state tnat an unfortunate occur
rence which took place on the road between Tal
botton and Columbus, by which Mr. Jesse Dick
inson, a member of the Washington Guards, from
Washinnton, Wilkes county, lost his life. Il ap
pears that while the company were on their
mrrch as above stated, during a heavy shower,
Mr. Dickinson took shelter uncer an old shed,
where he had been but a few moments, when the
wind prostrated the entire tenement, burying him
amidst its frugmeuts. Upon his companions’
throwing off the loose boards, a large beam was
discovered to have struck him across the neck,
aud life was entirely extiuct.
REMOY’AL OF THE INDIANS.
Au animated discussion arose on this sub
ject day before yesterday, in the House of
Representatives. Mr. Everett of \ ermont
was the leader of the opposition on this oc
casion, anti made bitter accusation against
the The attack of the
phalanx which supported Everett was
promptly and ably met, ami effectually re
pulsed, by Messrs. Haynes, Speight, Mann,
and Glascock. The latter particularly ex
plored the whole ground assumed by Mr.
Everett against the administration invindi
cation of the Indians side of the question.
The fact and arguments of Mr. E. were
alike shown to be untenable.
YVedid not suppose it possible that there
could arise in a dissension upon
the question or removing the Indians, ac
cording to a treaty, whichhad received the
full sanction of all the authorities of our
Government, and especially at a moment
when it is seen that their continuance with
in the States, subjects the whole circumja
cent country to the terror of the scalping
knife and tomahawk. That the public may
understand the feeling under which opposi
tion to the President!* arrayed in Congress,
we quote the following passage of a letter,
written from this city, and published m the
Journal of Commerce, received yesterday.
Those letters are from the pen of the hired
writers of the federal party in Congress.
The members speak their feelings much
more distinctly through these channels
than they can venture to do through prop
er person. The sentimnnts of the hil lings
and their employers are the same.
Here are the fabrications by which the
Seminoles are justified by the organs of
federalism.
“ 1 have no doubt that the cause of the
Seminole war will be found in the fact that
this Government after screwing and jewing
the Indians for remuneration, in lauds, for
alledging depredations, set up a claim up
on them for their children begot of negro
women. Many runaway slaves took re
refuge among the Seminoles, and all those
the Indians were made to pay for. It hap
pened that some of the women had inter
married with the Seminoles, and in one or
two instances with their chiefs. A claim
was set up by the American citizens, the
owners of the runaway slaves, for the ofl
spring, upon the principles of partus se
cptiluvrenlrem." This Government recog
nized the claim, and sent agents into the
Seminole country to kidnap the children of
the Seminoles thus claimed as slaves. Our
Secretary of War ordered the movement,
The Government was advised that this
measure would lead to hostilities, but it was
persisted in.
“ Those facts have already been stated
on the floor of the House, and have not
been contradicted. But, in a day or two,
they will be proved. YY'hen the much
boasted American chivalry needs employ
ment, one would think that it would be di
rected to the aid of the gallant ami injured
Seminoles. But it so happens that the
whole of the available chivalry of the
country, regular and volunteer, has been
sent against them, in number sufficient to
eat them up ; and with a result proportion
ate to the justice of their cause. Our for
ces have been beaten, mocked, scoffed at,
and made the laughing-stock of the world.
When the documents and developments to
which I allude shall be published, this Go
vernment will stand before the nations of
the earth, as the most faithless and contemp
tible that ever held a control over the desti
nies of man.
“We shall see what we shall see. But
an observer of the signs of the times will
not fail to mark our southwestern border as
the theatre of long and bloody contests, in
which we may have to contend with Mexi
cans, Indians and negroes.”
It will be remembered that Mr. Calhoun,
in referring to this subject some time since
in the Senate, charged the war to the
wrongs committed by our Government, and
the Indian agents employed by it. It must
have been mortifying to him that the hono
rable Dixon 11. Lewis, who has been almost
ruined by his devotion to him, came out
yesterday and vindicated the administration
from all the false aspersions of its foes on
this subject.
Gen. Glascock, in his noble and eloquent
speech, completely repelled the calumnies
against Gen. Thompson, the agent who fell
the first victim to Powell. We vindicated
him when the first accusation was made a
gainst the agents by Mr. Calhoun. We
knew Gen. Thompson in Congress ; and
had every reason to believe him a humane
and honest man. In his politics he leaned
towards the Nullifiers, and this shows that
Mr. Calhoun, where even a friend’s fame
stands between him and the gratification
of his revengeful feelings to the President
will readily sacrifice all the generous emo
tions to the adversary passion.
