A Good Joke- A. certain young lawyer of the New York liar, whose chin bears a very strong resemblance lo the goat species, and under whose arm a huge bundle of pa pers is invariably pluced, took passage about i year since on board one of the Hudson ttivr-r steamboats. After the removal of the tea-table, a number of passengers in the cabin entered into conversation, which ter minated in politics. The cabin was indiffer ently lighted, so much so that in some parts of it the countenances of many were not ea sily distinguished. Our young lawyer, with . . k a his bundle of papers under his arm, render ed himself very conspicuous in discussing political matters, ami, ini the course of his rc ir.ark., was vtry abusive towards Henry ClaV. An old gentleman, who was seated rather in the back ground, took occasion to sny that lie had some acquaintance with Mr. Clay, and was not aware of his being guilty of ih gross and indecent charges winch this young gentleman had imputed to him. 1 he young lawyer then addressed himself to the old gen tleman, and, among othrr objections to Mr Clav, urged that ho was in favor of the bink rupt law, and Inking his well-known bundle of papers from under his arm, exclaimed, 'I am a lawvrr, nr ! 1 have examined this ?ub ject thoroughly, ami am fully convinced that the bankrupt law is unconstitutional. The old gentleman remarked that he did no know much about law,but rather thought the law was constitutional. The young lawyer not thinking it worth his while to enter into a law discussion with an old gentleman, whose appearance in the badly lighted cabin rather indicated that he was a fanner, rose fcom his seat and walked tqwards the stairs So go on deck. As he reached the foot of the stairs he accosted a gentleman, a resident of roughkepsie, and inquired in rather passionate manner whc l therhe knew that obi gentleman who preten. ded to eive an opinion in favor of the bank- runt law 4WhV, yeg, answered the gen- tleman from roughkepne, 'uon t you know hiinT-Thatis Jmlgempn, of the Su- preme Cou'rt of the United State. V r . ..... The young lawyer ensconced n.msei a- mong the passengers on deck, and neither he nor his bundle of papers was seen again during Iho. remainder of the passage. N. Y. Com. Advertiser. Small Changs. Any one travelling a lone the seaboard of North Carolina will no tice the immense quantity of dried herrings used by the inhabitants. They appear to constitute the staff of life in that quarter A gentleman on his way to the South, not Ion? since, got OUtof the Stage and enter- ed a tavern for the purpose of refreshing himself. After taking a glass of whiskey and treating the driver, he threw down half a dollar. The barkeeper looked perplexed, and-said 'I have no silver change, sir, but plenty of the common, i f you will take i Here he counted out thirty-seven herrings, which the tmvtltnr had to roll im in a niece r - ..L-Q ;,t. him ib.nkino- Ik iA e i- rpu. mtmJL , might serve for a dinner.

Melancholy Death of a Young Lady. The Louisville Journal of Monday records the death of Mis Isabel R- Keats, in that city, which oc curred under the following melancholy circum stances : On Saturday night she sat with the other mem- hM nt tka fimilr nf iirhih cha U79a itn nrna rnpnt- until about 10 o'clock, conversing with accustom- ed ra etv. At that hour the family retired, but she, after going to her rucma, returned to the par- ..sal lor to procure something to allay a toomacne. onumy anerwaras, a iouu report auu Bureau. were ncara, anu me lauitiy, on rusiimg iuj uic ' room, found her weltering in her blood upon the floor, and a gun, which had stood in the room, lying near her. The discharge had lacerated her breast and neck dreadfully. The first impression was that the poor girl had committed suicide, and her half-frantic mother exclaimed, Oh, Isabel ! what made you do it V She replied, -1 did not mean to kill myseli ! indeed, mother ; I did not meaa to kill myself ! The bent medical ekill was instantly called in, but she died at an early hour in me morning, one was aose to converse lor several hours, and she seemed calm, thoutrh much distressed at the thought of parting from the mem- bers of her family, whom she dq arly loved. Her repeated and earnest asseverations can leave no doubt that the fatal occurrence was entirely ac- cidental. All who knew Mt3S Keats in imately will long and deeply deplore her early death. She was a neice of John Keats, the young English poet, who was the friend and the peer of Uoienuge ana Shelly, and in her features she was remarkably like him. She was a girl of genius, and her heart was the home of all the high and pure arid bean- tiiui anections. Natural Attraction. M I don't like to be eft-alone with a gal: it's plaguy apt to set me a soft sawderin' and a courtin.. There a sort of natural attraction like in this world. Two ships in a calm are sure to ret up alongside of each other if there ia no wind, and they have not bin' to do but look at each other : natur does it- Well, even the tongs and shovel won't stand alone long ; they're sure to get on the same side of the tire and be sociable ; one of 'em has loadstone and draws t'other, that's sartain. If that's the case with hard hearted things like oak and iron, what is it with tender-hearted things like hu mans 1 Shut me up in a 'sarvatory with a hand- sum g&l of a rainy day, and see if 1 don't think she ie the sweetest flower in it. Yes, I am glad it is the dinner bell, for I ain't ready to marry yet, and when I am, I guess I must, get a gal where I got my hoss, in old Connecticut, and that State takes the shine off all creation, for geese, gals, and onions, that's a fact."

Warren ton Male Academy. rJTHE sixth Session of this Institution will com mence on Monday, the 8th day of January, 1844 i be terms of Board and Tuition are the same as here tofore published. The undersigned takes great pleasure in informing he patrons and friends of the School and the public generally, that he has rented the large and commodi ous building formerly occupied by Mrs. Jenkins as a Boarding House, situated immediately opposite to the Academy , and that he will, by this means, be enabled to board as many Students as may be a-nt to lbs vil- age from a distance. He pledges himself to the pub ic, that the morals of all the boys entrusted to his mmediate care and control shall be strictly guarded, and, to accomplish this desirable end, no Student from the Boarding House shall visit the Town, except on special occasions, and never without the permis sion of the Teacher. It is desirable that all Boys, who have no near relatives in the 1 own or its vicinity shall board with the Principal, upon whom devolves the grest responsibility of preserving the morals of the Students. It isconndeotly hoped that the well estab lished character of Warrenton for health, its tontigu ity to the lower regions of V irginia and North Caroli nt, its facility of access by the Rail Road, the long ex perience of the Teacher in the profession to which he devotes his undivided time and attention, the rtasona- bit terms of the Institution, sLd the high order of morals enforced, will all combine to secure to the School a large and generous patronage. For any in formation in relation to '.be professional stsnding el the Principal, he would most respectfully refer geatle men to the Trustees of this Institution, as well as to those or the Scotland Neck and Northsmpton A cade mies, in which he has taught for the last thirteen years.

The former is a course I have nevet adopted, and never shall ; the latter I have tried and found to work well.
