' To my ftUoxc citizens from JViur Orleans to Dmtmingt'itle, and from Salt Water io Vie Lake Waters, tip and down the Coimlry and cross wise : Fellow Citizeks Ever sinco the norld begun, all the hunts and chases tell'd on in all parts of creation haint been only a' mere flea hunt to the rale fox chase that has jnst been corople t7d in these Untied States ; by the grace of God free and independent at last. It has been known to every body that for tbe last ten years it has been impossible to hatch eSrg.or raise poultry, or to trust any thing at large of that natur night arter n'ght and day arter day nest arter nest abd chicken arter chicken, was destroyed by the foxes, and they got so bold and brazen at last thev would come into the poultry-yard in open day, or any where else, and kept the hull feather'd tribe a kackling pretty much all tb while. At first the folks got traps and degs . but it got so at last, that the faxes got so numerous, it was jist as much as a dog's life was worth to attack 'em and folks begun to despair especially as it was found out that all the younger foxes got their directions from one rale sly fox, who as yt never had beeo tracked, or trap'd, or driven to his bole ; he was every state, almost at the same time. And wherever ha was reported to bp, there it was foond all the other foxes was most knowing and most impudent. So.it wag concluded that it was ao asi to try aod trap the comoaon roo of foxes, but, if possible, make a general rally in all th states, and give chase to this old fox especially and not give up till he was. run to his hole, and than dig him out for it was thought if he was ooly Caught, all tb9 rest would , be prett scarce. Well, tb:a rcatter being agreed upon. the Srst thing next to b done wa&Io select a good long winded leader to tbe nqt give oat. and whose thst, And so we all y ana gol him pretty sounds his born, and i a down rivers, and across tains, till folks all about cri with the sound,- and on a given day enabled at all their stations, and pat in the few general roles of the chase, caporing a little round, and having a ftv sham chases, jt to gii ninr.bfc, end tbpf no a sigcil froan Oid Tip's horn thej all started, and sich a chase, ss I said afore, as thn hgan, the hull created wold haa never before sHn for it wss an ever lasting wide and long country to chase over, and no one knowing yet where the fox would first break kiver, all bands at first went to work beat ing the bosh. The first track was struck in Louisiana ; and about 3,000 give chae there end rnn htm out of that state snd he streaked away notth as hard a he could clip it, and knowing all the secret by-ways, escaped till he reached ibe stale of Maine. Tbe Maine boys were wid awakej and as pocn SS they strock his track there, they ratcd an almighty shmi and hpded him off. -H then sheared off to Njw Hsmp shiri, where they ate pretty mnh alt fo and there for a spftll took breath. jfi hearin:? t!ie coming shout he struck frr Vermont in hopes the " Gren Moanfinsrs " wonld foroib n kiv- e ( er, but they were all awake thre, and aioi S000 fold jined the cha.se, and he-remained n longer in Vermont than he could gf oct on't 'Weli'thinkshe, this is pretty iN w.rk, and I'm iff South agin, for they... most be friendly to me 'there, seeing as how I tell'd all the fxe to be civil to the Southern chicken,' and so he slipt nlorig into Georgia.

V As Louis' Philippe takes n'poh hircsslf the task Lof governing as well as reigninghe is com pell- riio give, private audience very ircquently to persons wh-jm he wishes to consult. Many of these take, place. be, fore: the London .shopkeeper ha$ opened htssbutters. , "J found h im," said a n English friend to rae, " io his dresstng-room, at seven o'clock, witb a gtassof the infusion of rhubarb before' htm,' which appears to be his fa voriiejonic when his stomach is deranged. He begged me to be sealed, and began to a?k me questions about England, stirring and sipping as he went on. He then broke onl with a iongte capitolaiioo'of . the hardships of' his condition. Hej had to contend, with intrigue, ambition, di rect and open defiance ; but his greatest calamity I could oot help smiling as be said it was the management of the theatres. ''- Yon smile," said the king, " aod as you know nothing of the subject, f am not surprised that you do6o; but I can; asors yuu that the subject of roulades and pirouettes is a very grave one here!" , The following account of a vUit by another Englishman is very credjfable to tbe king ; but the fact which it discloses is highly disgraceful to tha character of the coanfry over which he m. m . p-ai t . j -h ' reigns. Many years ago, when Lrue or ur leans bo bad some EriglUb workmen io one of his palaces, executing some changes or repairs. Ooe of them, a plain John Bull, full of laleot and probity, took the fancy of the king; who, after; conversing. with, bim frequently, offered to Ut htm some premises on one of bis estates. I he I Englishman, of coarse, availed himself the offer, and took possession. At the end of the first year the king refused to receive any ienu. At the end of the second year he wished to be equally generous ; but. his tenant, who had a great deal of honest pride, said. ' No! I accepted this kindoess gratefally the rst year, for I had net brought myself round; but 1 am now able to pay As the tenaot weoi n continually prospering, he was desirous of en larging the premises; and here the king was again his friend liberally allowing him to make whatever improvements he pleased, and todtaw for the necessary funds, for which he was to pay funr per qent. if he couli afford to do so, and iU not able, he was to pay less. It appears, bow ever, that he was well able to pay this rate of interest, and to realise very large profits far him naif- On one part of bis premises be had erec ted a biscuit manufactory by machinery When it Was in foil operation, tbe king, accompanied byjtho minister of the marine, visited it, and tasting the biscuit, desired the minister to do the same. Tbe minister having acknowledged that it was excellent in quality, aod that the price at which was soldwas lowenth-io tbat paid uoder i he government contract, tbe king said, " Well, then, voo ransroromise to nive a turn." ofSce; ?
