Washington, July slh, 1537.
*■ The Albany Regency, or as they call them
inclvcs, the General Republican Committee of that
ffjpty, have formally published the new declaration
qf faith, which will hereafter he the common
to unite all true followers of the magician.
Vour readers will not be surprised to learn that
rost of the distinguishing doctrines that have
cn promulgated with so much zeal and intole
rance —to give effect to which, specie circulars
have been issued and adhered to in opposition to
s the will of Congress—gold has boon imported for
indemnities, against the wishes and to the great
less of the claimants—and an almost extermina
ting war carried on against the currency ami com
merce of the country—that these doctrines were
(low rejected and denounced, and a new creed
given out in direct contrariety to all the hobbies
•nd war cries of this same Regency, and their
jigenls the Albany Argus, Washington Globe*
Wid Richmond Enquirer. It will not jxcite sur-
Mriae that the Benton humbug, and the succes
sive experiments of G ncral Jackson, are in ef
*|ect condemned, and the system of credit upheld
land applauded. This only adds another proofto
'tire already accumulated mass of instances, of the
Ijqiatty’s utter destitution of principle. Your rea
||ders will not be wholly unprepared for the new
if exposition of lory faith. They have been advised
If from time to time of the intentions of the Ad
'S ministration, as indicated hy the Globe, and as I
I have derived them from the best sources ot infor-
I matron I Jiave repeatedly warned them that the
* specie humbug, having answered the miserable
party purposes intended to he accomplished by its
I inventors, would speedily Ire abandoned, and a
& new experiment attempted. The party have
(w used the gross political imposture of a specie enr-
Sicncysofar successfully as to elevate, through
’jins instrumentality, the most abandoned men to
fflsfavor, who have not only wielded ail the honors i
tWind patronage of the Government for the benefit |
ipf themselves, but aimed at maintaining their as-
Aen’mcyhy a set of measures whi-h ha-p dn
ranged the currency, ruined every kind of busi
ness, and spread bankruptcy and commercial dis
tress throughout ho land. Now, when this oli
grrchv perceived manifest symptoms ot a reac
tion in tho public mind—when they find the
people, taught, hy bitter experience, how mischie
vous were the administration’s measures of poli
cy —are preparing to give a death-blow to the
existence of tliis “Parly,” they suddenly turn
round and adopt a new character, wherein to
make a fierce struggle to keep what they have,
and regain what they hafe lost.
They comb forward new as the contemners of
an exclusive metallic currency, and the advocates
of the credit system! and, in the face of their re
pealed declarations and votes, give utterance to
disavowals of having ever countenanced the for
mer, or opposed the latter!! Can any thing he
more profligate? more disgusting? or belter calcu
lated to degrade the characleV of public men in
the eyes of their countrymen and the world, than
this abandonment of their long cherished opin
ions and principles? and for no other purpose hu?
to keep the breeze of popularity in their favor!—
There is not an honorable man who can look
upon such a hand of time servers without con
tempt and loathing; or who can place any confi
dence in them, whatever may be their professed
jninriples, and whatever measure they may pro
pound. They arc wolves in sheep’s clothing.—
They exhibit the monstrous anomaly of a mon
grel government, propounding whig principles by
lory agents, and undertaking to carry whig mea
sures hy lory votes. I trust the people will not
tolerate such monstrous political tergiversation.
Ratlur let us have an honest, downright, ultra
tury anti-reforming administration, intelligible,
and which we know bow to deal with anti regu
late.
Tire Anniversary of oar Independence passed

FROM FLORIDA.
We arc indebted to a,gentleman who came as
passenger in the steam packet Florida, Capt. Hch
har , from the St. Johns, that Gen. Jesup and
Staff arrived at Black Creek on the 3d inst.'on a
tour of inspection, ami it was supposed that two
posts would lie established ou the Suwannee
and one on Lake George at Silver Spring,
The Indians were still peaceable and exhibit
no eminent disposition to renew hostilities.
About tert days sinvo a parly consisting of
Capt. Hanson’s mounted Florida volunteers and
a company of U. S. dragoons under Lieut. Way
were on u scout from St. Augustine to Palatkn,
Near Palatka they came across a parly of three
Indians and a Negro in a small camp.—The
Indians were captured. The Negro escaped.
The Indians staled that the party consisted of
1, Indians and 2 Negroes. Tire other Indians
were out culling down a bee tree and the Negro
who sbeaped give the alarm and prevented their
capture.
The three Indians captured were taken to St.
Augustine.
About the same date a party of U. S. soldiers
under command of Capt; Allen, were on a scout
from Tampa Bay. They took Fort Foster (fur
sometime abandoned ii consequence, of its un
healthy position) twenty miles from Tampa in
their r oute where they came across Old Bow Legs
a descendant of a celebrated Seminole Chief ol
the same name quietly seated in the descried
Fort. Tire old fellow in finding his former ene
mies approaching, thought it better to depend on
his heels for security. A regular race look place
and he was run down like a tired racer. On be
ing captured, he solicited very strongly not lobe
taken to Tampa Bay, hut the command being
froth that Post, he was conducted there without
further parley. He, the Chief, (us well as the
Indians found near Palatka,) was detained as
ho was north of the line specified in their last
Treaty.
Gen. Jessup is on his way to St Augustine.
The statement made that Micuhopy had been
executed is, we are informed, totally without
foundation.
Not the least provoking feature of this Flori
da war to an Editor is that we arc compelled in
lire exercise of our vocation, to give currency to
every rumor that reaches the public oar, or he
charged with withholding the latest intelligence
from our readers.
Wc would not however he surprised to hear
ere long, that Micanopy lias fallen beneath the
knife ofhis ambitious Chieftains.
Indians, although characterized for ferocity,
cherish the same ambition which often prompts
the while man sooner to “ reign in Hell than
serve in Heaven.”
But‘‘sufficient for the day, ’ Ac,
We learn tirat on Wednesday e'Ctiing last, the
house of Mr. Christopher Smith, about seven
miles from Magnolia, on the cast side ol St. Marks
river, about ~ine o’clock at night, was attacked
by an armed parly and several shots tired upon
it. Yells, as if by Indians, were made by those
who made the attack, hut it is not ascertained
whether it was inadehy a straggling party of Sc
minoles, or hy a gang of runaways, of whom it is
reoorlcd there are a number hut from some of the
frontier plantations. The inmates of the house
fortunately escaped into the swamp without per
sonal injury. Mrs. Smith lay concealed in the
hammock all night, while her husband found his
way to Magnolia, and aroused the citizens, who
forthwith scoured the surrounding country.
They discovered tracks, but so much obliterated
hy the heavy rain which fell during Ihc night,
lhalitcould not be ascertained whether otTndians
or negroes. The house and its contents weie
burned to the ground, and several ancles stolen.

Correspondence of the National Intelligencer.
New York June 28.
You perceive that a national bank ami the
national is beginning to ho tho subject of discus
sion by lire partisan presses in all sections of the
country, Tire articles in tho Globe, sent out as
feelers of tire public pulse have given a cue to ffre
Administration presses fur am! near. “An Ex

hank,” say the Administration pressesoflhe South
“ a national hank for the regulation ot exchanges,
say the Administration presses of the North; “a
Government hank that shall have no power to

All this looks well as a forerunner of the com
plete breaking up of the Experiment, which Ex

Buffalo, June 27, 1837.
Gentlemen —Our lake is nut exactly a waste,
nor u solitude, but the business done upon it thus
far has been very small, in proportion tolastyear.
Still there is done u living business by nearly, m
quite, all our lake craft. Emigrants go in every
boat, but there have nut gone forward over about
10.000 ub to ibis lime, against lull 40,000 during
the same period last year. Emigration is on the
deehnb, and well it may be—aimllrer year like
the lust, and wc should ham all been West.
All rnv information from the West confirms
the belief that provisions of every kind will be
remarkably abundant. The 120,000 emigrants
who went forward last season, have become pro
duccrs this, and thereby greatly relieved the rich
wheat fields of the grain-growing districts in this
country. We shall not reap the full benefit be
fore another year. A good many causes contrib
ute to this; one, that the farmers will not readily
come to the low prices; and another, the attempt
marie hy certain speculators in lire West to mo
nopolize tile wheat crop. Next spring must and
will be the era of new prices. A large amount
ot grain and flour is daily arriving Hum up the
lake, principally Clcavelaiid. One house in one
of interior counties has 40,0011 bushels of grain,
bought for distilling: who will he made happy
by its consumption, in the shape of alcohol? II
prices c.-uld he made to give way, I have no doubt
(here Would he an abundance of most ol the ne
cessaries oflifc, even al this early day in the sea
son.
From my own observation, and diligent enqui
ry, 1 am satisfied that the wheat crop in western
New York will he fair, full middling, nothing
more; corn tolerable, potatoes, and all coarse grabs
will he in great abundance, always excepting if
the season be favorable. There are some thou
sands of tons of hay summered o-.r, and the crop
this year will be greater than for some years past.
The wool-growers, and there are a good many
in this section of the stale, will not he able to find
ft market !Vr their vvooj. A vast amount will
therefore he made into Jomosiic goods. I believe
1 am not wild, when I say, that the present low
price of wool will he the means of saving, to this
state alone, a million of dollars. There w ill be
that amount saved hy working up the raw mate
rial among ourselves. Hundreds of farmers, who
formerly sold their wool, and bought their broad
cloths and flannels of the merchant, will, this
year, deck themselves and their families in the
products of their own farms. Their daughters
will find health and happiness at their wheels and
looms, much pleasanter music, in these times,
than pianos or harps.
Rathhnrn’s trial is anticipated to “come off”
next week. I have but little expectation that he
will he tried, and less, that he will ever find his
way to the State prison. The escape of Ly man
Ralhbun, K. Allen, and young Hewlct, renders it
next to impossible to convict him. However,
the people have able and vigilant advocates in the
persons engaged in managing the prosecution,
and all that strict justice requires, w ill be done to
procure his conviction.
SOUTH \ MERIC AN POLITIES.
The late Spanish provinces ofSouth America,
after undergoing a series of most singular revolu
lions, and suffering for twenty years and upwards
all the miseries of tivil war, seem at length to
have settled down into somewhat of a regular sys
tem. It is true, that most or all these Stales, are
yet occasionally troubled with civil disturbances;
but they are comparatively of a trifling kind; and
the political character oflhe several Slates has at
length assumed a marked and distinctive type.
Venezuela,Nkw Grenada, and EacAiion,
the three provinces which Bolivar attempted to
unite into the He public of Columbia, have sepa
rated into distinct, though friendly Slates : ami
discarding those high aristocratic principles which
Bolivar hud introduced into the Columbian Con
stitution have received into the theory and ad
ministration of their Governments, a large infu
sion bf democracy. The Ahgentinb Keren
Lie, (late Buenos Ayres) and Gum, after under
going a long series of revolutions, have establish
ed their Governments upon substantially ihe
same liberal principles, ,
Oh tho other hand, Bolivia, North Pent’
and South Pmiu, (a new Slate lately formed
out of the Southern Peruvian provinces,) have a
strong infusion of aristocracy in their Govern
ments ; and still adhere to the principles of Boli
var.
It is worthy of observation, and it lends to
show how intimately the distrihmior • property
is connected with the soon of Gove nm lit, that
in those States which have adapted democratic
principles, even wl-de they were Spanish provin
ces, there were po veiy large lortuncs. 'l ie c
provinces were not so much mining, as agrieu -
tural; and the distribution of properly was not so
extremely unequal. On the other hand, the three
aristocratic States, (forming the old vice-royalty
of Pent,) depended for their wealth on the mines,
ami presented the spectacle of a few grandees im
mensely rich, and the mas- of the people poor,
with a large proportion of African slaves, and of
native Peruvians, worse off, if possible, even than
the blacks. The tcrihle convulsions with which
Peru has been lorn, were a natural consequence
of this false construction ofits -social system
In Bolivia, the Spaniards longest retained their
power; hut being expelled hy the arms of Bolivar,
the native aristocracy with Iris aid, seized upon
the reigns of Government, and more lucky, or
more wise than their brethren in the other Stales
they have as yet succeeded in finnly’relaioing it
Santa Cruz, the President of Bofivia, seems to
he an able man. Di late he has exhibited some
disposition, to tread in the steps of Bolivar—to
whom he owed his appointment and to whose
political principles he adheres.—and to attempt
that same system of consolidation in the old vice
voyalty of Peru, which Bolivar tried, hut could
not perpetuate, in Columbia. Having interfered
in Peruvain afl’airs, and defeated Sal'uveiy, who
had seized the supreme authority there, he has
dismembered Peru into tho two States of North
Peru, arid South Peru; introduced the Bolivian
constitution; and caused himself to ho elected
President ol both these republic , —so that he is
at one lime, the supreme executive oflhice nomi
nally independent Slates,
Santa Cruz lias lately received some special
marks of honor from Louis-Philhppc of France.,
to whose political sentiments he is suppose 1 to
incline: lire Pope has likewise promised to ap
point him vicar general of South America. All
these circumstances, joined to an expedition
against Chili, undertaken hy some aristocratic
Chi ian exiles, but countenanced and encourag
ed hy Santa Cruz, have excited the fears and ap
prehensions of tho South American democratic
States; and Chili, provoked al this interference
with hei domestic affairs, has declared war against
Bolivia and Peru. The Argentine Republic has
taken sides with Chili; and Equadnr seems like
ly to do (he same. Santa Cruz is said la ho ala rim
ed, and to he desirous of an amicable adjustment
ofthe dispute.—lt is to be hoped (hat such an ad
justment will lake place. Peace is cxlrenely
necessary to the South American States; they
have had wars enough to last them for a century
to come.

A VERY HARD STORY.
Wc published, not many Jays since, a short
notice oj a child in Rhode Island, who had a
longue like a serpent's head. Tho following is
the full account of which that was the substance:
The following most extraordinary factor hoax
we find in the New Haven Herald:
SERPENT-TONGUEI) INFANT
Tiverton. (R 1.) May 23,1837.
To the printer ol the Fall River Patriot:
Sir—l embrace the earliest opportunity to
make you acquainted with such of the facts as
have come to my knowledge relative to the
"Serpem-tongued Infant” of which wo had cas
ually heard just previous to my depar ure for
Block Island. Qnile unexpectedly, day before
yesterday, I found myself in the very neighbor
hood ol this strange and wayward production of
nature. My curiosity, as you may well suppose,
was greatly excited, and I confess 1 fell an in
tense anxiety to examine for myself an object
which began to excite so much interest in the
neighborhood of its occurrence. Mr. T , a
worthy old gentleman in the vicinity, a former
acquaintance of mine, with whom I accidentally
met, kindly offered to accompany me to Mr. W's
the farther of tho unfortunate child. We reach
ed there about nine o’clock this morning, and
were received very corteously by Mr. W. and his
intetesting young wife After an agreeable in
troduction, my aged friend staled the object of our
visit, and the desire I had manifested to see their
unfortunate little ihild, of whom I had just heard.
Mr. W. informed us that for several weeks he
had in almost very instance, declined admitting
strangers, as he thought their presence had an
unfavorable, effect Upon the child, hut ns I had
come considerable distance out of my way he was
disposed to gratify my wish, the more especially
as ho thought I might give some advice in rela
tion to the course in future to pursue.
We were then invited into an adjoining room
in one corner of which we beheld, lied in a sni-o'l
chair a most horribly emaciated Utile chiD, ap
parently about two years old. I am avv’ive that I
shall totally fail in giving you any thing like and
adequate idea ofthe miserable object before os
Imagine, if you can, an infant, or mere chil I 01.
about the age above supposed, reduced to a very
skeleton, hairless, au-1 covered with a parched ami
shrivelled skin, dark and unelaslh- tis the corres
ponding structure in Ihe withered octogenarian,
l.s little red, fury eyes, rolling rfesllessly, in tiro
deep recesses of its fleshless sockets, sent forth
horrid flashes of indignation, when, (be door of
its un'-rlmenl was thrown open. The little suf
ferer-opened its mouth, and in the place ot its
ronguc, atrd fora tongue.a sbiipent’s hkaii ano
nkok were thrust out, vibrating arid hissing with
an intensity peculiar to the more venomous va
rilies of that repulsive species ol amimalcd nature.
I could not for several minutes muster sufficient
courage to approach tiro ohjnci of my curiosity.
[ was fixed to tiro spot which I at first occupied,
while lire serpent headed tongue continued to
dart forth and recede with Ihe quickness of
thought; its little forked and fiiey longue at the
same time playing about the lips and nostrils of
the child; equalling in velocity the lightning’s
flash.
Mr. W. the f-ther, gradually approached the
child, all the time speaking very soothingly to
it, and in a few minutes succeeded in producing
quiet—the head receded, the lips closed over it
and the infant exhibited the aspect only ol ex
trenre emaciation. But the moment I moved to
wards the child, even but a single step, lire mouth
would open, tho head suddenly dart forth and the
same dreadful spectacle I have already imperfect
ly described would again he presented. The fa
ther, however, beckoned me to approach, which
I did, hut never shall I forget the tremendous his
sing which came from the surpenl-headcd longue
<>f the little sufferer. It was several minutes be
fore quietude could he produced, and even then
the slightest motion of rny part would cause tin
instantaneous prutrlls on oflhe unsightly organ,
accompanied hy a hissing sound, more or less
intense according to Ihe fears of the little child.
I had several fair opportunities of seeing the
strange member, and will endeavor to give yon a
description ofil. Its color is dark copper, shin
ing, and in places inclining to streaks of green.
Its eyes are a jet black, and when the light strikes
them favorably, no diamonds ever sent forth more
brilliant scintillations of light! A bright yellow
ring encircles the neck, and really has much the
appearance .of gold. The mouth of this serpent
headed tongue is quite largo and was always
slightly opened when the head was protruded
beyond the lips. Its little forked tongue, as I
have already said, was incessantly in motion.
We stayed in the room just 30 minutes, dur
ing tho latter part of which time the child became
very quiet, and took freely of milk, its usual food.
The father told me he had known the longue to
bite several limes, and once when it fastened upon
one of his fingers, much swelling and oreness
followed; indeed he was only relieved hy a copi
ous bleeding, file informed me that lire child eats
voraciously of milk, and sometimes other kinds ol
food, hut that it preferred ihe former. The child
is of the female sex. He slated further that se
veral eminent physicians ami surgeons had been
to see the child, and that it had been recommen
ded by one, the eminent Dr. VV. that tho tongue
he extirpa ed. I coincided in this opinion, and
advised that the Doctor he called on to perform
the operation. The father, Mr. W. is about 88
years old, and the mother, I should judge, about
twenty-two. She is very beautiful, has been
married about five years, and this is the first and
only child. I have omitted names in this hasty
sketch, at the request of the parlies concerned.
Yours, &c.
An Incident,— -M’F. a young gentleman
of our city, and Mr. G—, —l* of Cincinnati,
had been college acquaintances. They met a
short time since at one of our hotels, and were
equally gratified al the event—old friendship was
renewed—ancient frolics discerned upon—and
hair breadth escapes from detection by the lynx
eyed professor, told over again and enjoyed, as,
good as now.” A trifling eircurnslanee at leegth
occurred which marred their promised tranuquili
ly —angry feelings grew out of it—though in the
sequel It proved to be a misunderstanding. Wc
are forbid to ho more explicit on that point.
An insult was given and a challenge ensued;
friends were selected—time and place appointed,
and on Wednesday morning lasi tho parties re- -
j paired to the scene of contemplated hostility,
i While one of the party was “pacing the die-
I ranee,” a large Newfoundland dog bounded into
their midst, and leaped op-’o fit master, young
| M’F, as if conscious of some impending eu
ilamily. M'F attached a handkerchiefru tin
collar of Ihe dog, and giving the other end inti
the hand of hi* friend moved towards his oppo
nent who had already taken his position, but tin
dog was not l» he restrained. "Nero.” said M’F
quietly, "lie down a rnornen ." Nero mined a
look upon Mr. L. and with a low growl re
fused lor tire first time in lis life to obey. M'F—
-1 struck him over the head with the hull of the pis
tol, and the dog mov.-d closer to his side. Ano
ther blow, and another yet more severe, had only
the effect to bring the dog to his master’s feet,
where he gave sufficient tokens of his intentions
to the friend ofhis master, in ihe event of his at
tempting to touch the handkerchief again.
, “ What shall I do,” said M'F .
"Take your position,” said his friend, “and let
the dog stand hy you.”
Tliis was attempted, but Nero was more rest
less than ever, jumping about before his master,
pawing ui his feet and legs, ami growling at L—,
till M'F turned sharply round and hid him
be still. The dog stood quietly before him, —
M’F look steady aim al Ihe noble creatures
forehead; his finger was on the trieger; and us
ho afterwards acknowledged, a tear was in his
eye ;—another instant and Nero would have
j lijtn the first victim.
) “Don't kill the dog, Mae.” said I,—quietly hut
quickie. Nero had been the constant compan
ion ofthe soc« in the days of their friendship.
M’F turned, rti.d L already ap
proaching him.
“•Sumo other lime,,’ said L— turning abrupt
ly under tho impression that he (tad spoken too
familiarly, for the dig oily oflhe occasion.
“Why at all," was the chrUlain remark of one
of ihd seconds,
'J'he eyes oflhe principals met, and the fuck of
each was plainly and echo of the last question.
Another word an an exp’anation ensued. In
five minutes the recent foes were heller friends
than ever, and Nero marie the welkin ring with
the boisterous expressions ofhis joy.
And thus liouorahly leimihated an, “affair of
honor.”— Baltimore Paper,
The Captain and the Dandy.— The
port folio of an t-x-ediior now and then solids
forth some amusing odds ami ends, athofitr
which is this good one of a captain of one ot
our Naiitiicket whalers, an eccentric fellow,
and of rather an uncouth figure, who visited
one of our cities alter n cruise of three years,
and one evening attended the theatre. A.-* a
matter of course, such a rough, dm k complex
toned old.chanicner in a box with several
fashionable ladies and genth-mati, attracted
some considerable attention, and created
much merriment among the t xqu stles. Sev
eral times every opera glass in the boxes was
thrust at him, until finally aware that he was
the attractjon'nftlio evening, he left the house,
determined to repay such nri| ml mice in their
own coin on the following night. According
ly, on the succeeding evening, enveloping be
neath Ilia great coat the ship’s spy glass
about two (eel and a hail in length, he started
for 'he theatre. As anon, almost as ha enter
ed his box, the opera glasses were in motion.
He wailed until the play commenced, when
upon observing a young gentleman with a
cane under his arm amt a glass at his eye,
pointed directly at him, he drew forth from
his outer garment the spy gln&, and drawing
;t from the ease the entire length, aimed itdi
re'et at the dandy, and continued to look at
him until the house was in a complete uproar;
and the fop with inortifiicatio'n, left the box
fur the lubb ics.
GOING THE libcJ.
There is nothing like keeping cool irl such
times as these. A man that is melting with
the heat ofthe sun, and sweating under the
thousand calamities that flesh is heir to, in
these hard and moneyless times, if he yields
to tils natural impulses, and gives way lb the
feelings that beset him, will be very soon find
himself totally evaporated. 'J'he thing is had
enough iir all conscience, but why ihake i
worse by indulging in unvailiiig and uselq.-s
repining.-)? The causes of llie present suf
fering are known to every one that will open
his eyes wide enough to look Jruth I i the face.
But tor the present this knowledge does no
kind of good. The cure is llie thing.
A drove of hogs once broke into the corn
field of an ucquainstance of ours which, when 1
discovered created quite a sensation. The
old man, his wife and children hastened to
the fence—and straightway commenced a
dispute us to how the quadrupeds had got in.
From words mid nuitnl recriminations, they
so m came to blows, and while engaged in
this sport .he hogs destroyed the .whole ofthe
grain. Now, it was important to find the break
in the fence and rebuild it, but it was first ot
imdortnnco to drive out the liogn. Well lot
us keep us cool ns possible, look this present
calamity in the face with as much philosophy
ns possible, drive the whole Hogs ou; of the
fie!di)iut up the fetice, nnd in future guard well
he corn. Ties wII not, be well done, if we
fly into n thousand passions, and because wc
are oppressed, run to more severe nnd lasting
evils m search of a cure —Columbus Enq.
From Ihe I la! mi l.
Os a Bell that was put up in King John’s
time. — ‘lii the days of King John of Atri, there
was a hell put up, which any one that had re
ceived an injury went and rang, mid the King
assembled the wise men appointed fur the pur
pose, that justice might he done. It happened
that, after the bell had been up a long time, the
rope was worn out, and a piece of wild vine was
lied to it to lengthen it. Now there was a
Knight of Atri who had a noble chargtr, which
had become unserviceable through age, so that,to
avoid the expense of feeding him he turned him
loose upon the town. The horse driven hy hun
ger, raised his month to the vine to munch it, and
pulling it the hell rang. The judges assembled
te consider the petition of the horse which appear
ed to demand justice. They decreed that the
Knight ■whom he hud served in his youth should
feed him in his old age —a sentence which the
King confirmed under a heavy penalty.”
A very accomplished gentleman when
carving a lough goose, had Ihe misfortune to
send it entirely out of the dish, and into the
lap ofthe lady next to him; on which he ver
ry coolly looked full in her face, and with ad
mirable gravity and calmness sanl, “ Afadani,
I will thank you for that goose.” The gen
tleman gained as much credit for his polite
ness and composure, as lie hud lost by his
awkward carving.
Wo know a young lady who has eo puck
crop up her mouth hy pronouncing exquisite
words, that when she begins to speak you
involuntarily stoop forward expecting to re
ceive a kiss from her.
A curious typographical error appeared in a
country paper last week. In giving an ac
count of an inquest, it was stated that the de
ceased bore an accidental character, and the
jury returned a verdict of excellent death.
