It i a rule in the American Navy that all the naval cidrts, who compose the material out of whicn are fashioned afterwards the naval commanders oi tht Republic, shall serve their time before the mi ; and a good and wholesome rule it H, for reasons too obviout to descant upon. The Treble, a trainingVhip for this purpose, and manned almost exclusively Tiy-oung erntlemoii Horn niHoncM the most rrrcctaule .inn lies in the States, the amount ot two hundred and upwards, came to Npithead for the purpose of nuval education. She hsppenod to he the imlv man of-wur on the station it the time, and her presence on tint account, and on account of tbe frequent oppoiitini ties which she had of suluting the Hoynl Yacht, whs made more than usually conspicuous. She was left wholly unnoticed by the authorities of Portsmouth, her cadets were refused admission to the dockyard, a..d she ultimately left (be station, with two hundred younj, naval hearts, the future upholders of their country's naval fame, fully impressed with the na ture of their reception In their fatherlund. The Mercury then gives the following contrast : We can also tell our readers, how Her Majesty's sloop-of-war Pearl sailed from Beimnda in the win ter of 1839 or 1840, with despatches entrusted to her gallant commander, Lord Clarence Paget, for the V'nited States Government how she experienced n succession of gales on her passage how she nrrive.il in Chesapeake Bay with battered hulk and exhausted crew how the naval authorities of Norfolk, the lortsmouth of the States, sent shipwrights and rin gers on hoard how the good ship was refitted with out charge or demand of any kind and how the British officers and crew were welcomed and feasted on shore.

The studied slights shown in England to such men a Henry Clay and other distinguished Southerners, because of their connection with slavery ; the ovation to Mrs. Stowe, deliberately designed not to honor her, but to insult her country , the constant war upon American institutions ; the ribald abuse and slander ot our peo tile by tourists and newspapers ; the announcement of a determination to regulate the affairs of both hemispheres, tbeso are abundant reahorm why Ameri cans cannot sympathize with the war of (ircat Bri tain upon a country trom which limy have only re ceived kindness and consideration. Courtship among the I'iWNirs When a lover wishes to break the ice, he comes to her father's tent, uninvited, and sits on the corner of the mat for a considerable time, and thon goes away without speak ing. This is the preliminary step, answering, per haps, to the first gentlo pressure of the hand the first blushing hesitation in address the first mutual glance of understanding. After a few days the young man returns, wearing his buffalo robe, with the hair outward, and again sits down silon. in the corner of ibe tent. This is a proposal a regular " popping the question." If the father is determined to reject bim, nothing is placed for him c& on, and no meat is offered ; but if he approves of the match, thee nles of hospitality are observe!. Feasts are then given by the respective parties, in order to ob tain the consent of the relatives. If both feasts ter minate favorably in this respect, tbe young man pre sents himself once more before bis bride, at tbe door of her tent, and then turns round and walks slowly off towards his own she rises and follows him ths marriage is then complete. If she remain sitting, it is a sign that her family decline the match... All this is done without a word passing between tbe intended bride and the husband that is to be. But the most extraordinary part of the affair, is that having mar ried an elder sitter, he has the right to marry all the younger ones, as tbey successively attain ths age of womanboon. The author adds : "I have seen chiefs wbd bare in this manner married a whole family ; the eldest wife being the greatest drudge, and the youngest being" generally ths favorite Sultana, and consequently doing the least."

We said we'd let drive among them with a double barrelled gun loaded w ith powder and duck-shot, and we mesnt it. But those cats didn't believe a word we end They d dnt believe we had any powder or shot. Tl ey didn't believe we bad any gun, or knew bow to use it if we bad And one great Miltese, (with eyes like tea plates and a tail tike a Bologna siusige!) grinned and sputtereJ, and spit in drrisioo an t uenance at our turetti. " Very well ' said we, " very well, Mr Tom Cat, very well indeed! On your bead be it, Mr. Tom Cat. Try it on, Mr Tom ( at, and see who 11 get tbe worst ot it " We said the moon came up Monday night with her great round face ; and all the little tars hid them selves as if ashamed ot their twinkle in tbe splendor of her superior brightness. We retired alter tbe ba by had been put asleep in bis crib, and the rumble ol the carriages am: cart had ceased in the streets, and the scream of the ten o'clock train bad died away into silence, with a quiet conscience, and in the con fidence that we should find that repose to whicr one Mho bus wronged no man during the day is justly en titled. It may have been eleven o'clock, possibly midnight, when we were wakened from a pleasant slumber by a bable of unearthly sounds in tbe rear of our chamber. We knew what those sounds meant - tbey had cot ua fuel enough to have lasted us week . W e raioed the window ; and there, as of old, right opposite us, on the norih end of that long shed, waa an assemblage of all the cats in that part of the town. We won't be precise as to numheis, but it is our honest belief that there were less than three hun dred of them ; snd if one among them all was silent, we didn't succeed in discoverii g which it was. There was that same old Maltese, with his great saucer ryes and sausage tail ; and over against hi in sat a mon strous bnndle ; and off at his right was sn old pot ted ratter ; ind on bis left was one, black as a wolfs mouth, all but Ins eyes, which glared w ith a sulphur out and lurid briahtnens; and dotted all around, over a space of thirty leet square, were dozens more, of all si.et and colors- and such growling and spitting, and shrieking, and swearing, never before broke, with hideous discord, the silence of midnight! We loaded our double barrelled gun by candle light, we put plenty of powder and a handful of shot into each barrel. We adjusted the taps carefully, and stepped out of the window npon the narrow roof upon which it opens. We were then just eigh ty rods from the cat convention, and we addressed ourself lo the chairman, t,the old Maltese,) in a dis tinct and audible voice, and cried-" Scat !" He didn't recognize our iuht to the floor, but went right o.i with the business of the meeting. " Stat!" cried we again, more emphatically than before, but were an swered by an extra shriek from the chairman, and a fiercer scream from the whole assembly. " Scat once !" cried we again, as we brought our gun to a present. " Scat, twice I" and we aimed straight at ilie chauman and covering half a dozen others in the range. ' Neat, three times!" and we let drive. Bang ! went the right hand barrel and bang! went the left hand barrel. Such scampering such leaping oil the shed, such running away over the raves of the out buildings, over the tops of tbe wood sheds, were never seen before. The echoes of the tiring had scarcely died away when the whole assemblage was broken up and dispersed " Thomas,"' said we next morning, to tbe boy who does chores lor us. " There seems to be a cat a sleep out on that shed go op and scare it oway." Thomas clambered up the shed and went up to where that cat lay and lifting it up by the tail, halloed hack to us " This cat can't be waked up ; it can't be (cared away it's dead !" After examining it a mo ment, ' Somebody has been shootin' of it, by thun der !" said be, as he tossed it down into the yard " You don't say so !" said we. That cat was the old Maltese, the chairman of that convention but he won't preside over another very soon. We don't know here he boarded, or who claimed title to him. W hat we ') know is, that it costu quarter to have him buried or thrown into the liver ; and if anybody owned him, all we ask is, that he should pay us back our quarter, and the difference between his value and that of the powder and shot we expended on him. We'll throw in the vexation of being broke of our rest, and the wickedness of using certain expletives under the excitement of the occasion which are not to be found in any of the religious works of the day Arrival of th Empire Cltjr.

But you see, now, my Poll is purtier ihsn your Sail ; and yoa know she it a younger rritter by twelve long yean. Now Dick, old fellow, bow would you like to trade a young and likely filly for at old broken winded and homely bone, and get no boot?' Tbe argument was a clincher; and Dick, though reluctant to acknowledge it, manifestly felt its force. After much further parleying, it was agreed between the faithless Benedicts that Dirk should take Obadi ab's wife, and Obadiah Dick's, upon these conditions: that th former should give the latter, in the way of boot, a ttvand n, two guatt, an vld hot gun mid an oi bell ' The treaty of exchange was ratified accordingly, and Sal went to " Yallibam" and Poll to "Taxis." Tbe respective children of the two mothers remained with their respective fathers, and thus were favored with that peculiar relation, a step-mother by process svapping. We assure our readers that this statement ia sub stantially true, the incidents having actually occurred as above related It may be, however, that so far as the wives are concerned, the swapping was more for mal than actual ; that, in brief, the cow, calf, goats, shot gun snd cx I ell were a "dead loos" on the part of Dick, and but fair tribute to the mercenary Oba diah. The parties were both subscribers to the East ern Clarion, snd we are unfeignedly sstonithed that they did not imbibe from its columns, whatever may have been the defects of early education, a purer mo rality ami more manly estimate of " Heaven's first best gift to man a wife." Paulding (Mm.) Clarion A Msiui. or thi: United States - Among the Americans who ailended the late ball given at the Hotel de Ville. Paris, was Jack Spicer of Kentucky. Jack rushed the dress somewhat strong, and sported epaulettes on his shoulders large enough to start four Msjor Generals in business Jack was the observed of all observers, and got mixed up with a party that his friends coihl not account for. Wherever the marshals of Frunce went, there went lack ; and when the marshals sat down, Jack did the same, always taking the post of honor. The day after the hall Jack called on his old acquaintance, Mr. Mason, our Minister to France, who started up a little conversa tion in the following manner: " I hear. Jack, that you were at the ball last night.'' 11 1 was, Sir, and had a hitch old time." "For which you are indebted, I suppose, to the high old company you got mixed up with 1 By the way, how came you associated with Ibe marshals '" " How t by virtue of my office they were mar sbals of France, while I am nothing else tlmn mar shal of the Republio. I showed my commission and took post accordingly." 1 " By right of your office ; what do you mean ?" ' Rend that and seo " Here Jack presented Mr. Mason with u wlntey brown paper, with a seal big enough for a four pound weight " " What in the name of Heaven is this '' ' My commission of marshal I received it hi lH'0, when 1 assisted in taking the census in Frankfort " " Yon don't mean lo say that you travel on thi'?', " I don't mean anything else. That makes me a marshsl of the Republic, and I intend lo have the of fice duly honored." Mr. Mason allowed that Jack was doing a large business on a very small capital. We should not wonder if the reader did the same. The New York Herald published ten column of the speeches at the know nothing "banquet" at Philadelphia; and yet, much as it love' the order, is compelled to make the following admission : "Though there appear to have been over thirty speakers preent. each of whom obtained the floor in bis turn and spoke as long as his wits or his legs permitted, it would be who'ly futile to seek in the report of the speeches for a single sentence wotth presei ving."
