An anecdote of the ttjiks. We will
tell an original anecdote of much interest
some hardy roughskics, from the pine
knots up the "Alleghany, were sauntering
up town, and had their wild unpractised
ears arrested by tho sound of a piano. They
could not make it out it was neither jews-
harp nor fiddle, yet it was "first rate"
and being overcome wit curiosity, they an
entered (three in number) through an open
door. In a handsomely lurmshed room
one of our Whig girls was playing and
singing a Tippecanoe sonjr. I he ftloun
tain boys hope J no oflencc, but wanted to
hear her play "on that thin", "u, yes,
said our young belle; w ith great humor and
archness, "but I can play nothing but
Harrison tunes. Are you for Harrison V
Yes, aH of us," said they. And away slie
went rattling oft" and singing some of her
own more favorite Harrison songs. The
lads Tippcnred delighted. "If Jim only
heard that, do you think he would vote for
Mr. Van Bun n?" said one to tlie others.
Who is Jim T" nsked our heroine. " He
is a comrade of ours, nnd n loeb democrat,
but I think if he heard that song, it' would
turn him. 41 Go fetclvJiim," said slip; no
way daunted :' nnc the three started oil. and
directly returned with their- stubborn and
incredulous comrade. I he young lady had
now her ambition roused, and the young
men being seated, she played, .and sang
some of the most lively and popular Harri
son airs, while Jim himself had to join in
thcjcliorus, thanked the lady, nnd 'Maid he
was no longer a Van Duron matfbut would
go the " whole figure" for TTpccanoc from
this out. i hey nil departed hisnilv pleased

BckxjSg of the CahouX- The arrest
and subseoueut discharge of Mr. McLcod,
accused of being concerned' in the dccsUM--
tion of thc steamboat Caroline of Schulos
ser, in 1837, seems to ha ve" revived, in
some degree, tho animosity that prevailed
in Canada at that time. Mr. McLcod, who
was lately Djput i Sliirifl of Lincoln Dis.
trict,. has written a long letter to thc editor
of the Niagara Chronicle, relative to the
niatier. hi speaking on tlie subject, the
Aiontreai Herald says: " Since sucn pro
ceedings have been adopted against a Brit-
is.i subject, lor such alletlged participation
in an act winch was: commuted by the

it does, thc honor of Giat Urit iiu in nu

though hT stated that "had he Jieen, he

not inclination, which prevented his par
ticipation in that honorable und daring act,
and ii he' had taken part in it, no fear ol
consenucnee3 would have prevented him
from avowing it at once." . ..- ;

to, could he carry out his darling plan.

ISoyEL hat-thai. A correspondent
has sent us the following account of anew.
ly invented rat-trap, 'which hrts already
been used with success. Take a barrel and
stretch a skin of parchment ovcr it witli a
string; cut it across and 'athwart, nearly
to the outside. Take soiho dripping-, and
mix it with meal ; smear it on the middle
he parchment. Thc rats will smell it,
and treading on the parchment it will give
.ay,.nxd tjicyjin
tho barrel. ' Put a plank for them ' to creep
up to the barrel's brink outside, and strew
some oatmeal on it. You must not let tlie
water ba too deep, but set a brick endways"
in it, and the "first rat thnt is caught will
make, a noise, which will entice more, so
that they will fight for possession of the
brick, and the noise will draw others."
Thus in one night the house may be clear
ed. of rats, bo theycier so many. Mice
and other vermin may be caught in q simi
lar manner.

Orleans Ben, of tho 11th inst. says: The
.Brilliant, with a cargo of 1023 hales of cot
ton, ranaloulola snag yesterday morning
ahoutfivo miles ahove Cantrells Church
on the right bank of thc river, and snnk to
her- boiler docjt - Her : passengers were
taken otTbv the Feliciana. Some of the
deck load had hcen put ashore, and some of
the cotton had Ikmled oil. 1 he loss will lie
considerable, and it is doubted whether the
boat can be raised.
There arc hut few men who look upon
debtor but r.s in some degree their prop
erty. Pecuniary rcsponsihility generally
breaks thc tie.s abso'ves from all courte
sy; raises thc creditor to the eminence of
a despot, and often inspires him with the
desire of exercising the arbitrary power of
one. .
The helpless dedtor must bo suspected,
accused, insulted,, in silence. The attacks
of others arc unsupported by self approba
tion" and thc natural independence of a
man. He is a slave, clmitxHl t-4e spit
upon by the angry, nnd-lauglied at by tho
unfeeling; and his own heart, alas! joins
his enemies and pleads against him.

A TEMPERANCE COX VENTIO.V diat was
JaL helil at this place earlv in September, resolv
ed on publishing a paper of thc above tide and
character and appointed Dr. John Dickson and
I). R. M'Anally to Conduct it. From thn insjiy
fir. !txiiir en);a);ements Dr. Dickson already has,
le deems it impracticable for him to lie recognized
as one of the editors, .though he will cheerfully
use all his influence otherwise, to promote its in
terest ; the subscriber therefore, in obedience to
the wishes of thc convention proceeds to issue
this prospectus in his own name, with a hope Uiat
lie will be aided in tlic undertaking by all tlie
friends of tho temperance cause throughout tho.
country, and that thc paper may soon have an ex
tensive circulation.
Friends or thk Tempkranck Cause ! to you
wc make a most earnest appeal while thousands
upon thousands of dollars arc annually expended
at theatres, at circuses, at die race track, or gro
cery, while no pains are spared, the luxury of re.
tiremciit nnd caac foregone, and no labor dcemep
too severe to advance the interests of political as
pirants, can you not do something in a cause thaj
must Im- dear lo every true (ralriot, philanthropist,
and christian ? Kecollr.rt there arc but few, very
f.-w, such papers in all tlic Southern country.
The Western part of North Carolina, tlic West
ern part of Virginia, and the Eastern part of Ten
nessee nrticiilar!y, need a periodical of this kind,
nnd it is for you now to say whether they shall
have it.
The very low price at which it was fixed by
die. Convention will make it necessary Uiat a very
large subscription be had before the publication
of it can lie justified.
Should thc subscription be deemed sufficient
the first number will be issued early in January
next.
