Wallace himself rushed on the. pirate captain, and a i]ro*u!riif strife tie?an betwixt them with so ir Li ti fury, that tin other sus pended tin ir-own battle to Jook on, a %> seem.-c by cointoou consent to re f; r the issue of the strife to the fate of the combat between the twe chiefs. The pirate f. sight ns well as man could do; but Wallre’s strength was beyond that us ordinary mortals.—fi (1 & cd tiie ? .voed ,t om the rover's hiiiid, and placed hun in such peril, that to avoid being cut down, he was fain to e| is* 1 with the Scottish Cham pion, in hopes of overpowering him in .the grapple.

They fell on tin 1 d<*< k. lo ked in each ethers ->rms. hut theFn n< hinan fell undermost; and W llace. fixing his g irget, cun pressed it so closely, not withstanding it was made of the finest •f steel, that the blood gushed from his yes, nose, and mouth, and he was >nly able to ask for quarter by signs. Mis men threw down their weapons and begged for mercy, when they saw their leader so sever* ly handled. The victor granted them all their lives, but took posses sion of their vessel and detained them prisoners. When he came in sight of the French harhor, Wallace alarmed the place by displaying the rover’s co lours, as if I3*‘ Longueville was com ing to pillage the t wn. The hells were rung ba< kward; horns woe blown, and the citizens were hurry ing to arms, when the scene changed. The Scottish Lion on his shield of gold was raised above the piratical (lag, and announced that the Cham pion of Scotland was approaching, like tite falcon, with his fwey in his icitch.—-He. landed with his prisoner, and carried him to the court of France, where, at Wallace’s r- quest, the robberies which the {urate had committed w*re forgiven, and the king even conferred the honor of Knighthood on Sir Thomas De Lon gueville, and offered to take him into his services. But the rover had con traded stick a friendship for his gen erous victor, that he insisted ms unit ing his fortunes with those of Wallace with whom he return’ and to Scotland, and fought by his side in many a bloody battle, where, the prowess of Sir ‘Thomas De L mgueville was re marked as inferiour to none, save that of his her ic conqueror. His fate a! so was more fortunate than that of his patron. Being distinguished by the beauty as well as strength f hj s pi rs m, he rendered himself so accepts able to a young lady, heiress of the ancient family of Ciiartcris. that she chose him lor a husband, bestowing on him with her hand, the and uuains annexed to if. Their descendants took the name Cliarteris, as conned* iug themselves with their maternal anceoters, the an. sent proprietors of the property, through the RAine of Thomas De Lmigueville was equally honoured utuoiig them; and the large tw*s handed sw .rd with which he mowed the ranks of war, is still pre served among the family monuments Another account is that the family name of De Lmigueviile himself was Gltarteris. ‘The estate af‘h rvvards passed to a family of Bi *trs, and is now the property of lord Grey. ARNOLD. Arnold, who on the capture of Ma jor Andre, had escaped, was immedi ately appointed a brigadier general in the service of Great Britian. But though Ids new companions had wish ed to profit by the treason, they view ed the traitor with contempt. What treatment,’ inquired Arnold from a British officer. *am 1 to expect should the rebels in ke me their prisoner:* ‘'They will cut off,’ replied the ofti er, ‘the leg that was wounded at Sarato ga, aud bury it with all the honors of war; but, having no respect for the rest of your body they wil| hang it on a gibbet, EQUALITY. A curious conversation lately took plac eon board one of the Margate boyß, which being overheard, occa Honed no small merriment among passengers. A gentleman who was totally unacquainted with the customs of those vessels, found the cabins were doubly occupied, one excepted, in whie h there was a lady: he addressed her—‘Pray Madam be so kind as to m;4.e way for m ?* ‘Good Sit S you cat;tint come here—go to the other cabins.* *1 have, Madam, and they are all full.’ ‘Sir, it is impossible to admit y ii here, fir I am .undressed.’ ‘Well. M idam, I scorn to take any advantage <>f you, I will therefore undress too!’ when the lady made aer escape. A little travelling Frenchman chanced to breakfast at a tavern in* Kentucky, in company with a tail ho ney Jonathan, whose appetite was in proportion to the magnitude of his frame, and who ate more at a meal than little Monsieur would li >ve done in a week.— The Frenchman was as* tonisiied at his gastronomic p rfor mances and after restraining his • u riosity for some time asked, with a (I mt ishing how, — 'Sure will yon be so polite sis tell me is dot you hreakfass or you dinnnir vat yon make nowV TV Yankee at first made no reply, hut M msieur not sitisfi and. again ask ed—'Do.

A challange ensued, and the K*‘h tuekv rifle proved to much for the little Frenchman's vitality. While lie was writhing his last agonies, Jon athan's compassi in was awakened, and he entreated the little Frenchman if there was any thing he could do forj him, though it should cost him years 1 to perform if, to Jet him know, and it should be done. <*o, Monsieur ,*’ re plied the little dying <u in. *'tell me vas dat yon din Hair or your hreakfass vut you'did make, an I will die luippie ’ 500 pounds The subscriber, will sell fiv * Inin deed pounds best Lard low f i cash.
