In order to evade the law. he Applies to the tin-merchant who happened to be there, for advice to help bim out of the acrape.

This they marked off 12 yard, 3-4 yard, and half 1-4 Just as pedlars of tape and calico h.ivr their yard sticks marked off". Nou, when a traveller steps in to "wet hit n-Witle" he civilly says, Muter Land lard, I'd thank ye for about 1-2 a yard, or t4 jut according to the length ot the " Red Lane" length of throat. No sooner said, than done, the land ;: Iofdr with solemn Me p, moves- on, and reaches down, from behind his bottles, the tin yard tube and measures out 1-2 a yard, or 1-4, as the case may he, of the wet ttuffoi the 0 1 be joufui; The travttler sends It down the red lanet vulgarly called drinks it, pays down the casht and travels awar.

The New-England folks have a saying, that three Philadelphia Lawyers are a match for the very Devil himself, and. that they are able to un ravel any knotty point, let it be ever so hard. ,Now, I would just civilly ask ; toch three Lawyers,' whether this man, ..who. sells rpm by the yard, instead of by. the cill. or half pint as the law says, -can leaned or not fined LA 1000 dol. -jar Jee.wiiiDe. given.

The- AwavKUiswTbe- distinguished zeal of the Unitai Fratrum in propaga ting the Gospel amongst the Heathen Nations, and especially to the wretch ed natives of our own 'forests, has beep lmg known and duly estimated by the Christian World. We have lately teamed, that the Females of this bene volent Society at Salem, in this State, about two years ago, formed them selves into a Society, for extending the blessings of the Gospel to the colour ed population in that part of the coun try. For this purpose, a Meeting House was built, in which Religious Service is performed once a fortnight by the Rev.. Abraham Steine-, a venerable Minister of. the -Moravian Church. The fruits of these exertions, are, at present, we understand, a'regu- lar,ancLord 80 members, among whom are 3 com municants and lObaptized adults.
