.Miscellaneous Extracts rare sport. The Barber es Dunse, from a Scottish Journal* „A gentleman, possessing an uncommon share •vt’ wit m<t humor, had occasion to lodge, for he night in company with some friends, at the inn ofa town which, for certain reasons, we shall deno inate Dunsc. Requiring the services oi a barber, he was recommended to Walter Dron —who was represented as not skilled in that profession, but excellent at cracking a joke, or telling a story. This functionary being forth with introduced made such a display of his oral and manual dexterity, as to leave on the mind, as well as the body of the customer, a very fa voiable impression, and induced the latter to in* vitc him to sit down to a friendly glass. Ihe circulation of the bottle served to show oil the j barber in his happiest mood, and the facetious “■entleman, amid the general hilarity, thus ad dressed him : “Now, Wattie, I engage to give von a guinea, on the following terms; that you ; leap backwards and forwards over jour chair, tor the space of half an hour—leisurely yet reg ularly crying out at every leap, ‘here goes I, Wattie Dron, barber of Dunse;’ but that, should vou utter any thing else during the time, you ♦oifeit the reward.” Wattie, though no doubt surprised at the absurdity of the pioposal, yet, considering how easily he could earn the guinea, and the improbability that such an opportunity would ever again present itself, agreed to the stipulations. The watch waa set, and the bar ber, having stripped oft’ bis coat, leaning with one hand on the back ot the chair, commenced lea[dsg enrei the seat uniformly repeating, in an exulting tone, the,words prescribed. After mat ters had gone on thus smoothly for about five minutes, the gentleman rung the bell, and thus accosted the waiter : “What is the reason, sir, you insult me by sending a mad fellow like that, instead of a proper barber, as you pretended he •was’’* Barber, [leaping]—“Here goes I, b at tic Dron, barber of Dunse.” .Waiter —“Oh, sir, I don,t know what is the matter; I never saw him in this way in my life; Mr. Dron, Mr. Dron •what do you mean.” Barber—“ Here goes 1 Wattie ,” Waiter—“ Bless me, Mr. Dron, re collect these are gentlemen; how can you make such a fool of yourself,” Barber—“ Here gees I, ,” Landlord, [entering in haste,]— “What the devif, sir, is all this? The fellow is mad. How dare you insult gentlemen in my house by such - onductßarber —“Here goes I, Wattie Dron,” Landlord—“l say, Bob, run for his wife, tor this can’t be put up with. Gentlemen, the man is evidently deranged, and I hope you will not let my house be iujured in any way, by this business?” “Here goes”— [wife pushing in]— “Oh! Wattie, Wattie, what’s this that’s come over ye? Do you no ken yer fair wife?” Barber —“Here goes I, .” Wife, [weeping]—“Oh, Wattie, Wattie, if ye care na for me, mind your bairns at liame, and come awa \yi’ me.” Barber —“Here goes I, Wat ” The afflicted wife now clasped herhusband round the neck, and hung on him so >s effectually to arrest his further progress. Much did poor ■Wattie struggle to shake off his loving but un welcome spouse, but it was now “no go”—his walloping was at an end, “Confound vou for an nleot,” he exclaimed, “I never could win a •minea so easy, in all mv life.” It is only neces sary to add,, that the explanation which imme diately followed was much more satisfactory to mine host than the barber’s better halt, and that the gentleman restored Wattie to his usual good humour, by generously rewarding his exertions with the well earned guinea.’ High Living and Mean Thinking. How much nicer people are in their persons than in their minds. How anxious are they to wear the appearances of wealth and taste in the things of outward show, while their intellects are all poverty and meanness. See one of the apes of fashion, his coxcombries and ostentations of luxury. His clothes must be made by the best tailor, his horse must be oi the best blood, his wines of the finest flavor, his cookery of the highest zest; but his reading is of tne poorest frivolities, or of the lowest and most despicable vulgarity. In the enjoyment of the animal sen ses he is an epicure; but a pig is a clean feeder compared with his mind; and a pig would eat f*ood and bad, sweet and foul alike, but his mind has no taste except for the most worthless gar bage. The pig has no discrimination and a threat appetite; the mind Iwhich w e describe has not the apology of voracity; it is satisfied with little, but the litJe must be of the worst sort, and every thing of a belter quality is rejected by it with disgust. If we could see men’s minds as we see their bodies, what a spectacle of naked ness, deformity, and disease it would be ! what hideous dwarfs and cripples. What dirt, and what revolting cravings ! and all Jhe.-*! in con nexion with the most exquisite care aao pam pering of the body. If many a conceited cox comb could see bis own mind, he would see a tiling the like of which is not to be found in the meanest object the world can present. It is not with beggary, in the most degraded state, that it is to be compared, for the beggar hits wants, is dissatisfied with his state, has wished for en joyment above his lot, hut the pauper of intellect is content with his poverty; it is his choice to feed on carrion, he can relish nothing else, he has no desires beyond the filthy fare. Yet he piques himself that he is a superior being; he takes to himself the merit of his tailor, his coach maker, his upholsterer, his wine merchant, his .cook; hut if the thing were turned inside out, if that concealed nasty comer, his mind, were ex posed to view, how degrading would be the ex hibition. Might it not be reasonably expected that peo ple should take as much pride in the nicety of their minds, as that of their persons? The pu rity of the mind, the careful preservation of it liom the defilement of loose or grovelling thoughts, is surely as much a matter ofnecessa- i rv decency as the cleanliness of the body. The , i-oaise clothing of the person is a budge of pov- 1 ,-ity; what then should be thought of the coarse ‘ entertainment o( the imagination? what destitu- j i tjon it argues? and when it is seen in connexion j I with a'! s he luxuries of abundant wealth, how j i odious is the contrast between the supertluities ot fortune and the pitiable penury of the under standing 1 The mansion is spacious and ele gantly furnished, but the soul ol the occupier is only comparable to the dust hole; a dark dirty receptacle for the vilest trash and rubbish. You visit an afilueut family in London ; you see girls, for whose education no cost has been spared, who have been guarded with the most zealous caic against vulgat associations, who are to be refined if they are to be nothing else; and you sec on their table a Sunday newspaper, the sta ples of which arc obscenity and scurrility, in a stve probably much below the loosest conversa tion of the footmen m the hall. How would tho parents shudder at the thought ol theii daughters listening to a familiar conversation ot the coars est kind carried on by their lacqueys. And what matters it in effect whether the debauchery is taken at the eye or the ear ? These things deserve to be thought of in another manner. The care of the mind has yet to have a com tr.eiiceinent. Its servants and its food have hitherto been of the lowest sort; but on both the character of the ministration and the nutriment, ; the purity and soundness ot the intellect must greatly depend. A good sign it will be, when some of the pride in the ostentation ot gold is transferred to the show of the riches of the mind, and when the appearances of poverty of inb llect are shunned as those now are of the poverty of the purse.— Tail's .

[From the JVcw York Evening• Post.} Naval Anecdote. —Some time in the early part of the late war, between the United States and Great Britain, as the frigate President, Com modore Rogers, was standing in for Block Isl and, between Gay Head and Mauntaug Point under a full complement of canvass, she espied a long sharp “i tipper built” schooner with Eng lish colors under the lee bow .sailing towards her, bearing a set of signals which were not under stood; the schooner was therefore pronounced to be an enemy’s vessel. The -’ommodore, however, by way of making a feint ordered a flag run up, and hauled down again immediately. This had the effect inten ded; tin ■ Schr. b lieving that his signals had been duh answered, and not willing to appear dull on the occasion, forthwith hauled down his signals and stood for the President, supposing her to be one of His B. M. frigates. The President now hove too under English colors. The Schi. came along side and was hailed. “What schooner is that ?” “His M. | schooner Highflyer,” was the answer. “Come on board, Sir, with your papers.” “Aye aye, Sir.” The boat was now hoisted out, and a British Lieut, came along side. He was piped over the gangway, and immediately ushered in to the cabin, where sat Com. Rogers, to whom he handed his instruction. “Umph, so Sir, you are looking out for the American Frigate Pres ident, Com. Rogers.”—“Where did you leave the squadron.”’ “Yesterday, morning off back Long Island, Sir,” “How was Com. Hardy?” “He was very well, Sir.” “Have you a suffi cient description of the President to enable you to recognize her when you shall see her?” “O yes, Sir, we cannot fail to know her immediate ly.”—“Well, Sir, without keeping you longer in suspense, I have the honor to inform you that you are now on board the U. S. ship President, and I am Com. Rogers !!” Meantime all hands being piped to dinner, the officer of the deck ordered the boatswain’s mate to invite the men who were in the boat to come up and nirtake with the crew. The Boatswain’s mate accordingly looks over the side, and says—“ Shipmates, come aboard 1 and get some dinner”—“Shipmates, eh,” says | a dry old fellow in the act of taking out his last hour’s quid of tobacco, and looking up at the same ‘ime very quizically at the President’s jib—“l say Tom do you twig that split canvass jib ?

We understand from a gentleman who attended the meeting, that it was held in a remote comer of the county, and not attended by any, who were not disposed to vote for ratification, except a few who turned out to see what was done by the Ratifiers, and after all the speeches, and management of the Rats, they had only a majority of ten. There were only fifty two persons present, and the vote stood thirty-one, twentv-one. We presume the late Grand Jury were not in attendance. —• -met ■ — CM. —The richest specimen we have ever seen, was found a few days since, on Maj. Alfred B. Holt’s Lot near this place.

The first part of the apology offered, is fully sufficient, viz: the hubbub and confusion of com menccment times. But we must believe the editor in sincere, when he speaks of engagements of major impor tance. From what we have seen in “ our career in which we have put stt out,” we thought the sensitive, feverish editor, could not be more gratified, than to know that he was the subject of any body’s notice, so that he might vent the spleen of his disordered imagination, and nullify every obstacle bet we mi his brow, and the crefc wreath which he thinKs his Union friends have in store for him. e are at a loss to know why it was, that our friend and counsellor,in his parting admonition, took it into his empty scull,that we so much dreaded a grey ‘goose quit!;’ although it is usually considered the shield anti protector ol the goalin, we know not why we should fear the weapon, eventhough it should be wielded by one ofthe dmenyfamily. Although he has so formally taken leave of us, we hope that when his wing-feathers grow out, “ should he not die with the Cholera’’ that we shall again meet him swim ing upon the surface ofthe political waters, though not disposed to think every thing he secs before him, was intended to be cropped with his blunted bill-, for quack as much as he may, he is so much prejudiced in favor of union, that we are confident he never can consent that the bal ance of his brother quilt-driven should be nullified, if he does sometimes hiss at not less than six or eight of them at a time. Cliange Bills. —It 19 important tliat the people should recollect, that under an act of the last Legislature, the circulation of change bills must cease on the first day of September next. The passing of any bill under the amount of five dollars, after that time, will subject the person passing or circulating the same, to a fine of one hundred Dollars. Heavy oppression; how many poor individuals are there in the country, who seldom have as much as five dollars at a time, and how many are there in this section of coun try, who are compelled to work hard all day in the gold mines, and draw their hard earnings every night from their employers, and lay it out ir. provisions for the sus tenance of a helpless family of children. It may oppress the poor in another way; the specie, the only change to be used, will be bought up and kept in by the monied capitalists of the country, who will make it a source of speculation, and charge whatever premium or per cent. on. it, that their consciences will allow them to take. Who was the cause ofall this? we believe that Governor Lumpkin recommended it in his message to the last le gislature, and if the Governor is right when he says, he “alludes to the most important things first, and then the next in order, and so on.” We know not to w hat ex tent he may go in oppressing the poor people, whenever • ,*v> has the power to do so; though we presume from pre , appearances, the Governor will be discharged from the of-' 8 important duties about the “Work . shop” on the toi?

Stump Speeches , (alias) Carl Speeehes.-A member of the late Convention train one of the frontier counties, in Georgia, who is now a didnte for the legislature in his county, was at some public gathering a few days since, and was prompted by his vanity, to make a speech. He mounted a cake cart, called the attention ot his audience, and commenced in the following strain of knock down argument : “ Fellow Citizens, you elected mo to the Convention; I went down there, and we kept trying and try mg, to do something for a w , and we could’nt do any thing. I went down to my room, and drew up the plan, and went back and offered it, and it went down with a small amendment; I voted for it, and Id do it again. lain a Unim man, and a friend to General Jackson, and I always said, ll ever 1 got a chance at that infernal JYtgger basts in the Constitution, I would tear it out, and if I had hold of the Federal Constitution, I would tear the infernal Nigger basts out of that too.

Mr. Editor.— The Superintendent and Capt. Cuthbert, alias. Dr. Cuthbert, has return-j ed, and one might suppose from the manner in which they travelled home from Commence ment, “ that they were strangers, lor they seem ed to travel different roads.” The Superintendent is re-instated in “ toe Workshop attending to the most important things first, then the next in order, and so on,” but I assure you, he looks as mad as a sitting hen. I thought for a day or two, that he was still mad at me, because I told him, I was no doctor, when he wanted me to jog all Jhe way up to Commencement with his tarnationed pill boxe-, and his new patent medicine, the Lump- Iciniana Panacia. Though I was deceived, for the Superintendent has again turned over in my favor, and the way he is polite to me, is distress ing to Dr. Cuthbert, and all of his sort of folks. He never pretends to call me any thing but Co lonel, and its Colonel this, and Colonel don’t you believe, this; Colonel don’t you believe that, and the other; and I am almost sorry, Mr. Edi tor, that I ever was a Colonel. Though l have been quite polite in my attentions to the Super intendent, in order todraw out of him all I could about his and Dr. Cuthbert’s success in Athens. I discovered yesterday evening, that the frown of despair, which he brought home on his countenance, was gradually going off, and the serene tinge of disappointment was smoothing down the wrinkles which despondency had har rowed up, and I ventured to approach him. Well, says I Governor, what’s all the news from Athens, and what do you think of your pros pects now. The Superintendent seemed in a moment to contract every muscle of his disap pointed ‘countenance; looking me lull in the face, an expression more audible than that of the human voice, flashed from ilia counten ance, that he sensibly felt liims; If in a state of usedupracy ; am. while I was reading beat, beat, badly beat, in his forlorn countenance, he be gan to compose himself, and steady his nerves enough to speak, and in a stammering ton., he commenced in nis usual way, by saying, C olo nel, I—l—l am beat, the things’ out. What’s the matter said I; he began again, says he, Col. Trot, if you will believe me, Dr. .Cuthbert did not get a single new patient out of all the crowd that attended Commencement, and it is a fact Col. Trott, we had to use up all the pills we carried with us, to keep our own folks from bolt ing, for you never saw the like of them that had got on the fence. Says I, what was the cause of this. Oh, says he, bad management Colonel, I have seen for a long time, that this Ratifica tion, and anti-nullification, was about to create a splitification among us. Oh !!! says I, both eration, and whose fault is it; says he, it was Cuthbert’s fault, for he made me turn out the Missionaries; he made me turn against nullifica tion, and he is now trying to make me turn for ratification. Says he, what do you think of it Colonel, for I assure you my great interest now depends on what you say, for I am determined in future to turn in, nor turn out nobody, nor turn for, nor turn aga : n4 any thing hereafter, without consulting you. Well says I, Governor, too much pudding w ill chak a dog, and seize on my buttons, if I were you, if I’d turn any more before the October election to please any body. And says he, I wont, for I have turned now until I expect, in fact I almost know that I shall be turned out. But says. I, why was it that you and Captain Cuthbert come back dif ferent roads. Oh, says he, I abused Cuthbert about his management, and he got a little mad, and I come along and left him, for I wanted to wind up my speculation, and stop those fellows from getting grants to any more lands, having Indian Improvements on them; for says he, they have managed that so bad, that I am about to be detected in the arrangements, (shaking Itis head) says he. I’ll tell you what Colonel, these Democratic, Union, Submission, Anti-nullifica tion, Proclamation, Force Bill, Ratification, Wayne, Forsyth, Clarkmen, won’t do at all; for if they devise a plan for the great interest of the state, or for individual or company speculation, they are sure to put their foot in it before they I are done; for if them fellows in Cherokee had went on in buying up Indian improved lots, and got the grants and said nothing about the ar rangement between us to that effect, we could : all have made fortunes, but some of them had to go and brag of the arrangement, and the In dians and whites too, are becoming so much in censed at it, that the whole arrangement must stop right where it is. And says I, you had better stop writing to those Indian countrymen, what you intend to say in your next Message about their lands, for they will let that out next. Oh Colonel, says he, I shall stop that, for I see that I stand no more chance to communicate another message to the legislature, than Wayne does, to be re-elected to Congress. The Su perintendent then told me to have the books all ready to be turned over by the first of November, and I am now so busv, and shall be continually trotting about until the election.

Whereas the members of the late Convention contrary to every reasonable expectation, ban attempted an alteration to the Constitution, it- I consistent with the Republican form of Govern, ment under which we live,and derogatory fob safety, happiness and prosperity of the people both rich and poor : Permit an humble indim ual, who never expects to ask for office, to give you four substantial reasons, why you should not vote for Ratification. Ist. Because it gives the minority, the whole rule, and power of the Government over Ik majority of the people. For instance, 27coun ties, containing a population of 181,004, fc white inhabitants, under the proposed-alteratioia to the constitution, if ratified, will be represent by 69 members in the Legislature; while tit remaining 62 counties, containing a population of i.id,614 white inhabitants only, will bereptt senteii by 75 Members in the same Legislature. By dividing the 1 33,614, which is the nurabti ot the minority, by 75, which is the numberb]i winch they are represented, it will give you 1781 persons to each representative. Now adopt tk same fair rule for the majority, and give them representative for every 1781 persons also, and you will find that ;he 69 members allowed them, will only represent 122,889 persons; leaving! balance 0f58,l 15 free whitecitizens of the stale, belonging to the majority, not represented at all; which is equal to the loss of 32 representatives to the majority. Is this fair, just, or libera!’ But what would be the evil consequences ofths course ? I answer, not only the enactment ofall laws would be placed in the power of the minor ity, but, by the elect: c i Senators to Congrtß it would give to them t .e en.r:o control of the interest of the state, 111 that very important brand of the Federal Government, and by the election of the Judges and the other officc-is ofthestatf, the life,liberty, and property, of the many, would be completely under the control of the /<*• For in all of those cases, a majority of one vote in a joint ballot of the Legislature, will securt an election. But again, in the event that a can didate for Governor should not get a majority o> all the votes given in at an election, the Const!’ tution provides, that the two highest names shall be returned to the Legislature for their choice, and that a majority of both branches, in a join! ballot shall make the Governor. Thus it h clearly evident,that the minority of 133,614, can make a Governor against the united vote of ev ery representative of the majority of 181,00 t, notwithstanding the Constitution has restricted the people themselves, under aq individual ex ercise of the elective franchise fl-om making Governor, unless it is done by a clear majority of all the votes given in. Here is a beautiful consistency indeed in the constitution; th epcoplt denied the power of making a Governor, unless it is done by more than one half of them. Yd it gives the power through the instrumentality es the Legislature, to 133,000. to do the same thijtj
