they might drag me into tlie barn, and make a
wizzard o* me, whether I would or no; nay,
and I do assure you, I saw an imp, in (he very
exact form of a rat, that came out ot the barn,
and ran tow’rd me, as fierce as thof it wur re
solute to seize upon me; but,as Heaven would
have it, I started, and cried, “God bless me!’
and it va fished. Well; and so I wur standing
there, with my eye fixed npo i the bam door,
for I durst no’ venture to turn my head tne leaSt
in the world to the right hand or to the left, all
at once there wur a dead cold hand clapt to my
cheek, and som ‘.thing at the same lime gave
me such a whang on the back, that down I fell,
and I teally thought there wur an end o’ me.—
But, howevhr, for once it seems I wur more
frightened than hurt, as’ I found afterwards,
when Dick Walter, or Dick Dare-Devil, as he
is called in out parish, gave me his hand, and
helped me up. lou may be sure, I wur not a
little pleased ; so I told him the whole story of
the Black Cat a :d the clattering, and the devil’s
imp running at me to make a wizzird o’ me,
and all; and so he pretended to laugh at me,
and not to believe me, and not to put no faith
in such things; but that, as you ma'.’ suppose,
was all pretence, for I am certain very body
knows there is such things; because, why,
does not the bible tell us so? But Dick had a
mind to seem fas'neous, and fear nothing; tho’,
to be sure,- Dick is as bold as a lion, and as
strong as a horse, and there is not a man in
Lancashire dare to face him fairly; but then,
to be sure, he is deadly wicked and profane,
and I have heard him challenge Old Nick, if
he durst appear. And so 1 was pleased to find
Dick, that I would take him down tn II d’s at
the bottom of the hill, & gi’ hitn a mug of beer.
So away we went; and when we came there,
we found YYil Tiplor, the drunken shoemaker,
along wi’ Farmer Upton’s tall 7’om, who is six
foot seven inches and a half without his shoes;
and so Dick would be a pint to my pint; and
AV ill lie wur another; and Tnin wur another,
and so on, till we made it very late; and so
you must know, my road home fioni Hal’s lay
over the stile and gate, where the Shrieking
W oman commonly sits; but, you inusi know,
by this time I had got a drop in my head, and
then, somehow or another, when one’s in com
pany with Dick, one never fears nothing ; and
he is such a good nn(tired fellow too, when no
body puts upon him, for he won’t suffer no man
to sash and affront any man that he is in com
pany wi’; so, as I tell you, I had to go over the
Shrieking Woman’s stile, so as I did no’ half
like it, but wur got pot-valient, and would no’
ask Dick to go wi’ me, for I knew he’d game
and laugh at me. So away I sot.; and so, us 1
told you, a deadly windy night it wui ; so, as
sure as can be, when I had got a bit from the
house, l began to feel a forethought, and to be
partly sura that I should see her, and the farther
I went the more I wur certain; aid so I began
heartily to wish I had got Dick or-some one to
come wi’ me : but that was all over ; so away
I went wi’ my heart in my mouth, as I may say,
and I wish I may he hanged if my hair did not
stand an end every now and then wi’ thinking
crn’t. Well; so as I tell you, I kept going my
gait a thisen till I caine almost wi’ my nose
upon the stile; but I should have told you, it
wur most mortngious dark, for tho noon wur
gone down, and the night wur as black as pitch.
1 believe in my heart the heavens never sent
out or saw a more murky welkin : the sky wur
like a bag of soot. So, as I tell you, I had got
wi’ my very nose almast upon the stile, when
all of a sudden I saw her rise from behind the
hedge, as it were, and place herself upon the
stile. Lord! how my knees knocked together!
At first I hid not the power tr move hand or
limb ; and I do think I stood for some minutes,
with no more life in mo than an oyster; and
then, when 1 came a little to mvself, my teeth
chattered, and I dithered as thof I had been in
an ague: so what to do I did na know, for if I
turned back she would walk before me.
So l bethought me it w„r best to put my trust
in my maker, and to say tho Lord’s prayer, and
so go a bit lower down along the hedge where
there wur a gate. Well, will you believe me,
as sure as I sit on this stool, when I caine to
the gate, there wur she again. ‘ The Lord of
heaven’s goodness dellVer me,’ tho’t I, ‘what
will become o’ m l’ And so, do you kn >w, all
the sins that ever I had committed began to
come into my head. I bet'oou .ht me o’ the five
apples I had stolen when I we; t to school with
old Dame Trott o’ Prescot; and of the bastard
I had by half-witted Mall o’ the Hill, before 1
wur four and twenty; & o’ the robin-redbreast
1 had shot instead of a crow; and the silver
groat that I found the first year I was made
clerk o’ this parish, which I wickedly sp nt at
the fair instead of giving notice on’t at the
church door, as 1 ought to [have done; and
moreover, of having the very Sunday before
talien asleep in sarmunt time, and what wur
worser, when his reverence the vicar, wur in
the pulpit, and not the curate ; which his rever
ence afterwards told me, in the vestry, wur
breaking the commandments and an abomina
tion to the Lord. So, as I tell you, I began to
pray to the gracious providence for marry, for
deliverance and forgiveness of my sins; for, to
he sure, as I have told you, a wicked sinner I
had been; so, while I wur here, in this most
dismal and terrible astoundification, some how
UK another, I found she wur vanished and dis
appeared. and wur gone ; so I then fell upon my
knees, and thanked the grace of heavenly good
ness, and the Lord of Hosts, and the Almighty
Maker of heaven and earth, and the God of Is
rael, for all his manifold murciful loving kind
ness to me, a poor wicked and unworthy sin
ner; and so l begun to put my trust in him ; and
so, seeing as I did not see her any longer, I
ventured by little and little tow’rd the gate ; an I
so at last I laid my hand upo dt, and then one
foot, and then t’other; and so at last l got o’ tho
other side o’ the hedge, and so 1 wur fain to
walk by tho hedge side for fear o’ losing my
self, it wur so mortagious dark, as I tell you;
and so, as I wur walking along, 1 thought I
heard a whispering o’ t’other side o’ the hedge ;
and I am not a Christian soul in tho land o’ the
living, if it wur not as like tho whispering of
men’s voices as my right hand is to my left;
and so my hair began to bristle as bad almost
as before, ana I stopi; and so, when l stopt,
the whispering vanished: but J hoard aniorta
giou- ru ming. and a scampering, and a clatter
ing o’ feet, o’ t’other side o’ tho hedge, which
I could compare to nothing but a parcel of
devils running a race towards the stile; and, for
a! 1 we know well enough that spirits’ bodies are
not bodies, I’m sure the) made as great a elat
ing as thof rhey had had legs and feet of flesh
and blood. Well; so I wur now, as I thought,
o’ the right side o’ the hedge, so I kept mv
gait till I came to the stile; and seeing as I saw
nothing of her there, I began to have some
hopes that she wur gone for good and all; so
set forward again tow’ l home, and begun to be
think me that I ha I got something to talk about
as long as I lived; but will you believe me?
I had not gone half the field’s length, till [ saw
her again walking right before mo! ‘The Lord
of heavenly blessings defend me!’ thought I;
‘what will become o’ me!’ I stopt, and she
stopt I took heart and made two or throe steps
—-and so did she. Never since I wur a sinner
wur lin such a quandary before ! What could
I do ? If a man is so fearful as to (urn back,
I had always been told, she is so mischievous
she will twine his neck round, mayhap, or
b'ight him i’ the eyes, or somewhat like, as sho
struck Goody Hazel a box o’ the ear, and she
has been deaf o’ that side ever sin. So, as I
said, what could I do? Why, I prayed to the
Lord, and thought I would keep on my gait as
she was that distance before me. I should have
told you, tho’, she wur all in white, or else, as
you may think. I could no a’ seen her; there
wur no! a sheet in Lancashire whiter than she;
and at first she did na seem so high ns mv
breast, arid she walked as thof she were partly
lame, or crouching on the hams ; and so I had
na followed her far, before she began to get
higher and higher !—and higher and higher !
and higher and higher !—till at last, Lord Al
mighty bless me ! she wur taller tli in any tree
in Eccl L ston parish, or the next to it, lam pos
itive !—Marcv’s goodness be upon me, wh it a
condition I wur in! Well; and so, w >uld you
believe it? when she wur at the tallest, she turn
ed about, and gave such a stride tow’ds me !
end a skreek; a id, as I suppose, vanished; for
I dropped down as dead as this trencher ; and
Inere, as heaven’s marcy would have it. wur
found by Dick Walters and Tall Tom; and so
they, seeing me so Lightened, (for I did na stir
out of my bed for a week) wanted to persuade
me that it wur nowt but a trick o’ theirs to scare
me; but, however, I wur na such a fool as to
believe’m, as you may well think, after what I
had seen and heard.’
John Audley ended; and his looks, while
relating, were sufficient to convince the hearer
what his sensations must have been while his
wicked companions were playing him the trick
he had just recounted. Mr. Errant had been
much among the simple inhabitants of villages,
and knew how impossible it is to cure those
who have once contracted the disease of cre
dulity : he knew too, therp is in every district a
Dick Dare-devil, who diverts himself at the ex
pense of those whose faculties or bodies are
not so robust as his own.

A haughty general who had riscu from ob
scurity to the rank which he enjoyed, one day
reviewing his troops, took notice of a man in
the ranks, who was excessively dirty. Going
up to him, he said, “How dare yon, you rascal,
appear on parade with that dirty shirt ? It is
as bln. kas ink ! Did you ever sec me so nas
ty, and with such a dirty shirt, when I was a
private man ?” “No, your honor, to be sure I
never did,” answered the man, “but then your
ho air will please to recollect, that your honor's
mother was a washerwoman .”
Fair play. —Mr. Curran who was a very
small mao, having a dispute with a brother
connsellor, who was aver stout one, in which
words ran high on both sides, called him out.
The oilier however, objected. ‘For’, said he
‘you are so little, that I might fire at you a doz
en times without hitting ; whereas the chance
is that you would shoot me at the first fire.
‘Upon my co'science, that’s true ! cried Cur
ran, ‘But to convince you that I don’t wish to
take any advantage, you may chalk mv size
upon your body, and hits out of the ring shall
go for nothing.’
A pert young lady was walking one morning

A countryman in one of the western slates,

A beggar ivoina i, repulsed from door to door,
as she solicited quarters through a village of
Annandale, asked in her despair, if there were
no Christians in tho place. To which the

English Characteristics. — \ Fienchninn in

and a punch on the head his favorite argument.’
A ludicrous circumstance occurred in our
market a few days ago. Two fellows wishing
to have poultry upon cheaper terms than our
market people can afford, notwithstanding a
Turkey has been offered for 25 cents and four
chickens in the bargain, agreed to st al what
they could not purchase. One was providen
with trowsers wide enough at the seat to con :
ccal the plunder and a ’iv duck was being ihe
first thing they laid hands on, had it conveyed
into the receptacle. The duck unused to such
lodgings became vociferous for her liberty ;
and the rouge, apprehensive of discov ry fro n
the noise she made, attempted to slink off.
He had not walked far howeier, whe his clam
orous in note found means to inrusi h er heq .J
through a hole in the front, crying quack,
quack, caught the atte ition of the by standers,
who readily assisted her to obtain her liberty
and to find her wav to her companions ; to the
great mortification as well as disappointment
of the wide breeched dealer in quackery
Bosto i paper.
Some read to think, these arc rare; some to

and then boast of an i timate acquaintance.

Beautiful Ballad.
Oh! lady, buy these budding ftow’rs,
For I am sad, and wet and weary:
1 gather’d them ere break of day,
When all was lonely, still anti dreary;
And long I’ve sought to sell them here,
To purchase clothes anil dwelling,
For Valor’s wretched orphan girls—
Poor me and my young sister Ellen,
Ah! those who tread life's thornless way,
In fortune’s golden sunshine basking,
May deem my wants require no aid,
Because my lips are mute, unasking;
They have no heart for woes like mine;
Each word, each look, is cold—repelling,
Ycl once a crowd of flatt’rois fawn’d,
And fortune smil’d on me and Ellen!
O! buy my flow’rs, they’re fair and fresh
. As mine and morning's hr..a* otd.d i:cop them;
Tomorrow’s sun shall see them dead,
And I shall scarcely live to weep them;
I’et this sweet hud if nurs'd with care,
Soon into fullness would be swelling,
And nurtured by some generous hand.
So might mv little sister Ellen.
She’s sleeping in a hollow tree,
Her only home—its leaves her bejiims;
And I've no food to carry there,
To soothe the tears she Will he shedding.
C! that thos’- mourner’s tears which fall,
That bell which heavily is knelling,
And that deep grave wore meant foe me,
And my poor little sister Ellen!
When we in silence are laid down,
In life’s last fearless, nlessed sleeping,
No tears will fall upon our grave,
Save those of pitying Heaven’s own weeping.
Unknown we’ve liv’d, unknown must die,
No tongue the mournful tale be telling,
Os two young broken hearted girls—
Poor Mary and her sister Ellen.
No one has bought of me to-day,
And night is now the town o’ershading,
Ami I like these poor drooping Bowers,
Unnoticed and unwept am fading;
My soul is struggling to be free.
It loathes its wretched earthly dwelling!
My limbs refuse to hear their load.
Oh God! protect lone orphan Ellen,
MISS POLLY GRIMES.
Mias Polly Grimes is slid a mail!,
She says she ne’er will wed—
Her week day (rock’s blue calico,
ller Sunday one is red.
She never lets her beau make free,
Nor iisten to her vows.
When she gets up she makes the bed;
At < veiling milks the c ws.
She’s always up at six o’clock,
In time to skim and milk —
Her bonnet’s made of yellow straw,
And neatly trimmed with silk.
Her mind is of a serious turn —
She often thinks of death;
She docs not lace her stays so tight,
They make her gape for breath.
Beloved by all her female friends,
She leads an easy life;
And any man in town would jump,
To get her for his wife.
