Sti’alk anl Tye for Gold Wash
ing.
THE subscriber having applied to the Patent Office,
for a patent for the above iVlacliines, do hereby fore
warn all persons from making or using the - :ime, without
hispermission.
They are of different sizes, according to the purpose to
which they areintended to be applied.
No. 1 is employed, instead of the present mode of pan
ning, to seperate the Gold from the snnd as taken up from
the larger Machines, or from the lfilller of the rocking
Machines now in use. It will be found to be a much
easier method of performing that operation, and much
more economical, both with regard to time and the saving
of the Gold. A Machine of this description may be seen
on the Mine, No. 729 of tills district, belonging to the
Washington Company.
No. 2 Is intended for washing the Grit as taken from
the Mine, and where there is a sufficiency of water, eight
hands, when accustomed to the work, will wash three
hundred bushels of grit per hour, without losing any Gold.
This Machine will be warranted to wash more grit in a
given time, than any five Machines now in use, and to
lose less Gold then any one.
For further particulars, enquire at the Assay Office es

BORROWING A HUSBAND.
Niiw York, Nov. 23, 1831.
Dear Tim.—l’m glad my name amt John
Smith for that aint no name at all. You’ve
heard tell of the fellow who wanted to get a seat
in the theatre one plaigy crouded night, and
cried out “John Smith’s house is on fire!” By
the hoky! more than twenty men started up and
run out, thinking each it was his own house on
fire. Now there are five hundred and sixty-six
Smiths in the directory, and sixty-six of them
are John Smiths, but there aint no Timbertoes
that I know on hut Enoch—and that’s me. So
you see I have been pretty considerable easy
about any body’s stealing my name and trying
to pass muster for me—but as luck or ill-luck
would have it, I like to have got caught the other
day as slick as a weezle.
I was just sitting down to tea, when the ser
vant steps up and tells me there was somebody
at the door wanted to see me. I jumped up
and went down and there found a great big
carman with a great broad brimmed hat on,
scraping and bowing, and looking smiling as a
basket of chips. “Is your name Timbertoes?”
says he to me when I got up to him. “ YVell,
suppose it is.” “Why you are the very man
then,” says he, “ that I’ve been hunting for—
I’ve been driving my cart over the city foi
you.” “Hunting for me,” says I, “and what’s
your Business with, me?” “Oh, nothing,” says
he giving his whip a snap which like to have
hit me right in the face, only I have got your
wife and child on my cart out here.”—“My wife!
my child!” exclaimed I. “ Yes, your wife
and your child,” says he, “I knew you’d he de
sput glad to see her —she’s in a great agony to
sec you.” “To see me!” says I. “Yes she’s
come round in the packet all the way from Bos
ton to see you,” says he, “and far the life of her
she could’nt tell in what part of the city you li
ved, and so you see I’ve been riding her round
the last three hours, on purpose to find you—
but I’m glad I’ve found you at last.” “ Why,
here’s some mistake,” says I. “Oh! no mistake j
at all,” says he, “just come out to my cart and
sec if your wife don’t dentilyyou.”
I looked out at the door, not daring to go out
for fear of consequences, and true enough, there
on a chest and some bedding in a cart, sat a fine
looking woman holding a baby in her arms and
looking right at me to kill. I felt pretty streak
ed I tell you, but turning to the carman, says I
to him, my “dear sir, you are mistaken, you’ve
got the wrong man—l never was muriicJ in
my life, and that’s no more my wife and child
than yours.” Came, come, “that’s a good one,”
says the carman, “ but I can’t stand talking
here, just tell me where I shall dump your wife
and let me bo off—four shillings is all lax for
the job.” “But I tell you it aint my wife,” says
I, “I’ll call the whole of our folks here to swear
I never had a wife in my life.” “ Well, well,”
says the carman, who was getting impatient and
rather wrathy into the bargain, “you need not
go to that trouble—just step out here and if the
woman dont acknowledge you as her husband,
I’ll give it up.”
I felt plagy loath to do this, not knowing but
that the woman might swear herself on to me:
child and all—but there was no alternative to
get rid of the carman and so out I went. It
was rather dusky and the woman could’nt get
a fair view of me till I got close up to her —then
she screamed out “ Lord a macy ! lord a ma
ev!” then the carman set up his pipes. “ I
knew ’twas so—l knew ’twas your wife !”
“ Lord a marcy!” cries out the woman again
“I’m ruined and undone—it is’nt my husband
—it is’nt my Joseph—oh! dear! what has be
come of him!” “Your husband; marm,” says I
“how came you to suppose I was your hus
band?” “Oh dear! they told me he lived here,
and I thought for certainty he did—oh dear !
what will become of me !” “Why marm, there
aint nobody else in the city of my name.”—
“ Nobody else of your name in New York—
aint your name Timberlegs, and aint that the
name of my Joseph who has lived here these
twelve months?” “ Yes sir,” said the Carman,
did’nt you tell me your name was Timberlegs?”
“No, I did’nt,” says I, interrupting him. “ I
told you no such thing,—l said my name was
Timbertoes—Enoch Timbertoes, —that’s my
name and I bear a good respectable character,
and aint married at all.” “Timbertoes !” ex
claimed the carman, “confound it, how could 1
make such a blunder— toes instead of let’s —I ax
your pardon, but how shall I find out this wo
man’s husband ?” YVell, I’ll tell you,” says I,
“ seeing that you have come to your senses —
I’ll tell you.” “Well, how is it?” says he. —
“How? why advertise her in the newspapers,” |
says I. Advertise her ? and who’s to pay for
her keeping till her husband is found ?” say? he.
“Why, here’s a dollar,” says I, and if you’ll
drive off out of my sight and not trouble me
any more you arc welcome to it for your ser
vices.” The carman seemed mightily tickled
and drove off bag and baggage, and glad was I
to get rid of him so cheap.
A pretty narrow escape, that, Tim, I tell you.
It would be a pretty story to tell on, would’nt it,
that I was saddled here in York with another
man’s wife? But so it is in this great city, and
there’s a thousand comical circumstances hap
pening every day or two, just like the one I’ve
just described. A man don’t know who’s who or
what’s what, without he keeps a sharp look-out
—no tricks upon travelleis, is my motto, hut
they try plagy hard to poke ’em on to you, I tell
you.
I had’nt been in the city more than a fortnight
when I used to meet a man every dav who ap-
peared to know me very well, though I did’nt
know him from Adam. YY henever he saw me
in the street, he always fastened himself on to
me and axed me how I did and how I was get
ting along, and all such sort of questions, which
plagily puzzled me to make out w’ho he was,
and whereabouts he got so -veil acquainted
with me. I did’nt like to ax him about it, cause
why ? that would only show my ignorance, and
so I tried every other way to find out who he
was, but without success. The fellow stuck to
me like a shadow—wherever I went he was
right at my side—if I turned a corner, he was
staring me in the face. One day, however, I
saw him go into a shop where I was acquainted,
and so I waited till he comes out and then went
in and axed them who the fellow was. By the
hokey! who do you guess it was?—a little shriv
elled up ninth part of a man, a tailor, that keeps
a second hand cloth shop in Chatham street,
and he’d looked on me this way just to get my
custom. I’ll tell you what some of our Pearl
street merchants board their clerks at the tav
erns here to pick up the country customeis, but
I’d no idea that every petty shopkeeper practi
sed the same system —I cut the fellow the next
time he tried to know me—l’ve no notion of
these take-you-by-the-button-hoie sort of ac
quaintances—not I.
ENOCH TIMBERTOES.
The following humorous sketch of the pro
cess by which a Town formed, is from a work
on Political Economy, by Dr. McCullock, ofthe
University of London :
Origin of a Town.- There is a church, this
is the ordinary foundation. YVhcre there is a
church, there must be a parson, a clerk,a 9exton,
and a midwife. Thus we account for four hou
ses. An inn is required on the road. This pro
duces a smith, a butcher and a butcher. The par
son, the cleric, the sexton, the midwife,the butch
er, the smith, the sadler, and the brewer, require
a baker, a tailor, a shoemaker, and a carpen
ter. They soon learn to eat plumb puddings,
and a grocer follows. The grocer’s wife and
the parson’s wife contend for superiority in
dress, whence follows a milliner, and with a
milliner a mantuamaker. A barber is intro
duced to curl the parson’s wig, and to shave
the Smith on Saturday nights, and a stationer
to (urnish the ladies with paper, for their sen
timental correspondence ; an exciseman is set
to guage the casks, and a school master dis
covers that the ladies can not spell. A hat
ter, a hosier, and a linnen draper, follow by
dugrecs; and ae children come into the world,
they begin to cry out for rattlers and ginger
bread. The parson becomes idle and gouty,
and gets a curate, and the curate gets twenty
children and a wife; thus it bic.ames neces
sary to have more shoemakers, and tailors,
and grocers. Alas! too happy people! for in
the mean time a neighboring apothecary hear
ing with indignation, that there is a communi
ty” living witholit physic, places three blue
bottles in windows, when, on a sudden, ihc
butcher, the innkeeper, and the grocer’s wife
becomes bilious, and find that they have got
nerves, and their children get water in their
head, and teeth, and convulsions. They are
bled and blistered, till a physician finds it
convenient to settle; the inhabitants become
worse and worse every day, and an underta
ker is established. ‘Phe butcher, having cal
led the tailor pricklouse, over a pot of ale,
Snip, to prove his manhood, knocks him down
with his goose. Upon this plea, an action of
assault is brought at the next sessions. An
Attorney sends his clerk over to take depo
sitions and collect f|idcncc, the clerk find
ing a good openning, sets all the people by tho
ears, becomes a pettifogging Attorney, and
peace flies the village for ever ! But the vil
lage becomes a town, acquires a bank, a me
chanic’s institute, a circulating library, and
a coteri of old q^aids; and should it have ex
isted in might have gained a
corporation, a mayor, a quarter, session of its
own, a country assembly, the assizes, and the
gallows.” v
CROWJYIXG TIJE WISEST.
[from the ladies’ magazine.]
Not many years ago, it happened a young
man from Neiv Yo<k visifed.London. His fa
ther being connccteSjyith several of the mag
nates of the British Aristocracy the young*Amcr
ican was introduced iqto the fashionable circles
of the metropolis, whei% in consequence of his
very fine personal appearance, or that his father
was reported to be very'rich, or that he was a
new figure on the stage, he attracted much at
tention, and became .quite the favorite of the
ladies. This was not at all relished by the Brit
ish beaux, but as no very fair pretext offered for
a rebuff, they were compelled to treat him civil
ly. Thus matters stood when the Hon. slr.
M. P. and lady made a parijigaccompany them
to their country seat in Cambridgeshire, and the
American was nmonghhe invited guess. Nume
rous were tho devices to which these devotees
of pleasure resorted in order to kill that old fel
low who will measure his hours, when he ought
to know they are not wanted, and the ingenuity
of every ono was taxed to remember or invent
something novel.
The yankees are prorarbially ready of inven
tion, and the American end honor to nis charac
ter, as a man accustomed to freedom of thought.
He was frank and gay, and entered into the
sports and amusements, w'ith that unaffected en
joyment which communicated a part of his fresh
feelings to the most worn out fashiouists in the
party. His good nature, would have been sneer
ed at by some of the proud cavaliers, had he not
( been such a capital shot, and he might have
I been quizzed had not the ladies, won by his res
! pectful and pleasant civilities and his constant
attention in the drawing room and saloon, always
| showed themselves his friends. But a combi
nation was at last formed among a trio of dan
dies, staunch patrous of the Quarterly, to anni
hilate, the American. They proposed to vary
, the eternal evening waltzing and piping, l>y the
j acting of charades and playing various games,
| and having interested one of those indefatigable
j ladies, who always carry their point in the scheme,
it was voted to bo the thing.
After some few charades had been disposed of
one of the gentlemen begged leave to propose
(he game called ‘Crowning the YYisest.’ Phis
is played by selecting a Judge of the game, and
three persons, either ladies or gentlemen; who
: are to contest for the crown by answering suc
cessively the various questions which the rest o!
the party are at liberty to ask. The one who is
declared to have been the readiest and happiest
in his answers receives the crown.
Our American, much against his inclination,
was chosen among the three candidates. lie
was aware that his position, the society with
which he was mingling, required ofhim the abili
ty to sustain himself. He was to be sure treat
ed with distinguished attention by his host and
hostess, and generally by the party, but this was
a favor to the individual, and not one ot the com
pany understood the character of republicans or
appreciated the Republic. The three worthies
had arranged that their turn lor him should fall
jin succession and be the last. The first one, a
j pel feet exquisite, and with an air of most incfiii
j ble condescension put his question.
| “If I understand rightly the government of
! your country, you acknowledge no distinctions
of rank, consequently you can have no court
standard for the manners of a gentleman, willyou
favor me with information where yourbest school
of politeness is to be found ?”
“For your benefit,” teplied the American,
smiling calmly, “I would recommend the Falls
of Niagara—a contemplation of that stupendous
wonder teaches humility to the proudest, and hu
man nothingness to the vainest. It rebukes the
trifler and arouses the most stupid ; in short, it
turns men from their idols ; and when we ac
knowledge thal God only is Lord; we feel (hat
men are our equals. A true Christian is always
polite.' 1
There was a murmur among the audience,
but whether applause or censure the American
could not determine, as he did not choose to be
tray any anxiety for the result by a scrutiny ot
(he faces which he knew were bent on him.
The second now proposed his questiod. He
affected to be a great politician, w as mustachocd
and whiskered like a diplomatist, which station
he had been coveting.—His,voice was bland bur
his emphasis was very significant.”
Should I visit the United States, what sub
ject with which I am conversant would most in
terest your people, and give me an opportunity
of enjoying their conversation?”
“You must maintain as you do at present, that
a monarchy is the wisest, the purest the best
government, which the skill of man ever devis
ed, and that a democracy is utterly barbarous.
My countrymen are proverbially fond of argu
ment, and will meetyou on both these questions,,
and if you choose, argue with you to the cr.d of
your life.”
The murmur was renewed, but still without
any decided expression ofthe feeling with which
his answer had been received.
The third then rose from his seat, and with an
assured voice, which seemed to announce a
certain triumph said:
“I require your decision, on a delicate ques
tion, but the rules of the pastime warrant it and
also acandid answer. You haveseen the Amer
ican and the English ladies; which arc the fair
est ?” , ,
The young republican glanced around the
circle. It was bright with flashing eyes, and the
sweet smiles which wreathed many a lovely lip,
might have wordless determined patriot from
his allegiance. We did not hesitate, though he
bowed low to the ladies as he answered.
“The standard of female beauty is I believe,
allowed lo be the power of exciting admiration
and love in our sex, consequently those ladies
who arc most admired and beloved, and respect
ed by the gentlemen, must be the fairest. Now
I ass. rl confidently, that there is not a nation on
earth where woman is so truly beloved, so ten
derlv cherished, so respectfully treated, as in,
the republic ofthe United States; therefore, the
American ladies are the fuiicst. But,” and he
again bowed low, “if the ladies before whom !
have now the honor of expressing my opinion,
wore in my country, we should think them Amer
icans.” % ,
The applause was enthusiastic; after the mirth
had subsided so as to aliow the Judge to be
heard, he directed the crown to the Yankee.
Wedding, Wine, and JVuter. —The Ccntincl

Reuben Hunting, and Miss Sarah Lamprey,
which took place on Thursday evening, remarks:
“Pure water, -ocji as graced the nuptials of the

used on this occasion.” This is what we
should term being temperate “above what is
