Cuitious Love Letter. A young
woman had lived as servant at a respect
able farm house, at the village of L -,
in Northamptonshire, (England,) whose
sweet-heart was an honest rustic of the
some place, but whom cruel fate had des
tined to remove to a distant part of the
country, which, instead of diminishing,
only served to increase their muttfal re
gard. They were now, of course, ob
liged to have recourse to correspondence;
but, alas! how was this to be carried 011?
for poor Mary could not w rite. It was
not long before she. received a letter from
her lover, in which he declared the 'in
creased ardor of his love, and implored her
to marry. She was now compelled to
have resources-to a confidential female
friend to assist her in reading the letter,
and who readily offered to write an an
swer; but no Mary could not, even to
her friend, impart the main secret, and
declined thc proffered service. Yet, as
true love is seldom at a loss for the means
of invention, Mary adopted the following
concise method : Having procured a sheet
of writing paper, with the cntl of a burnt
stick, from oil the hearth, she formed the
little dotted i, and enclosed a small piece
of sheep's woolr which comprised Mary's
significant answer, i?oo', Her friend
wrote the superscription, ami the letter
sent off; it was well understood, and re
ceived with as much real pleasure as any
belle's letter could have been.' They were
soon after married.
gigantice scientific discoveries of Profes sor
Swcdenborg, are doubtless aware that,
previous to the annexation of the Moon to
this republic, the inhabitants of that remote
province were entirely destitute of water
there being not a drop of that exciting
and damning liquid, poison in the whole
territory. Since the annexation,- however,
the inhabitants of the new state have
shown the usual tendency of barbarians to
imitate the vices of civilization, and have
rapidly acquired a taste: fur thc expensive
soul and body destroying vice of cold
water. From moderate drinkers," thc
Lunatics have becomca nation of confirm
ed cold-water sots; and the Man in the
Moon, who has heretofore been-regarded
as rather a quiet sort of person, with no
very marked features, has suddenly come
out strong, as the Father Matthew of Moon
land, ami has effected an incredible amount
of good by his peregrinating lectures on
the evils of cold w ater.
But these are only a few of the evils of
cold water. Were Ave to attempt a com
plete list of them, the trade-sale catalogue
of "valuable standard works ' would be
nothing to it. One, however, is so wide
spread, and has produced such frightful
scenes of death and desolation, that we
must allude to it especially. It seems
that the rowdies and fire-runners of the
Mogn, who used in the good old days of
the republic, to put out quietly with lamp
oil, such craters as . accidentally caught
fire from the Man in thc Moon's cigar, have

Great Temperance Movement in the
Moox. We have received some very im
oortaut and interesting intelligence from
the Moon, which we have hesitated to lay
before our readers. Bat the present
tremendous crisis in the price of putty
has decided us to break through the cruel
restraints of coW and careful policyand
rush to the rescue of the human race, re
gardless of the sneers of pretended friends,
or the reckless assults of open foes.
Our readers, who are familiar with the
Extraordinary Case. In the year
ly'J a young lad 18 or 19 years ot age,
residing in the western part of the State,-
Avas arrested Avith two others, on the charge
01 stealing a grindstone iroin a man in this
town, and carried before a justice of the
peace, Avho fined each of them one dollar.
The young man referred to declared his
innocence of the crime, and appealed to
the Court of Common Pleas; but, before
the sitting of the Court, M as induced to
settle the matter, rather than be arraigned
as a thief, the justice giving him to under
stand that no record would be made ot the
case, and that it would probably never be
thought of. It was subsequently well as
certained that the lad was in fact entirely
a ." a
innocent, another uoy navingacKnowledged
that he himself committed the olltriice. The
young man greV up and has ever since re
sided in the same town, sustaining a most
exemplary character", lie has held sever
al offices of trust and responsibility,- has
served many times as a juror, antl has been
worthy member ot a; LOogregational
Church for thirtj' or forty years.
A leAr weeks since, having brought an
action of debt against one of his neighbors,
it became necessary to make an-oath folds
account ; but being about to take the oath,
to the utter astonishment of the gentleman
and all present, the record of thc convic
tion before the justice of the peace, allud
ed to above, Avas produced,- ami read by
ths opposing party, into whose hands it
had by some means come, after the death
of the justice. Here was an old gentle
man, sixly-six-"ycars of age, who had,
from his boyhood deservedly enjoyed the
reput.ition of an honest and virtuous citi
zen, held up to the community as a con
victed felon, and deprived of the rights of
citizenship, for an offence which, if he were
really guilty was committed nearly half
a century ago! We can hardly conceive
of the degree of meanness arwl malignity
which could prompt such a proceeding. In
this state of the matter application was
made recently, to the Executive, for a
restoration of his civil rights to the orthy
old man as le did not wish to descend
to the grave with this stigma resting on
him and upon the testimony of his ex
cellent character for more than forty years,
during the whole of which time one of the
witnesses had known him, his rights were
promptly restored", Satiem Mats Register.

CANCER.
.An Interesting Case t" ue. By Dr D. Jayne's Alterative.
In the spring fl31.a t ancermts tumor appeared in
the right breast of Mn PIio-l. wife of Peter Stretch, of
Salem. N. J. It was examined by many physicians, and
was considered by all sut cancerous, and besiilea bore all
the characteristic uuurlu of one. All proba M means of
removing it were need without the slightest benefit. It
continued to increase both in size and painfulnesa, until
all hope of savin? her life, but by a painful operation, was
abandoned, which-after consultation of eminent physi
cians, was performed, Jan. 1st. 1832, by Dr John Rhea
JBartou. assist-d by Ir Redman, Dr Jayne, and two other
medical gentlemen. The whole and entire right breart
was removed, and after examination of tho tumor, was
pronounced ly all present a Cancer of the most malig
nant character. In about three months, after endur
ing incredibl Bufferings, she was enabled, though broken
in spirit, to get about again. She remained feeUe.
and her general health was exceedingly had, as indeed
it had been for several years before In the spring
of 1S37, ' upwards of five years after her breast had
Iieen removed, a painful tumor made its appearance on toe
right aid. Immediately over the part formerly occupied by .
the nipple of the right breast, previous to iU removal.
This tumor steadily increased for several months, and be
came so painful as to deprive her of rest. The glands un
