It, is not long since at gentleman was travelling intone of the counties of Virgi nia, and about the close of (be day f top ped at a publ ic house to- obtain 1 refreshr ments and spend the night . He had been there but a ibbort time, before an old man alighted from bis jig, with trie- apparent intention of becoming his fallow guest at me same nouse. as ine oia man drove up he observed that both the shafts of his J gig were broken, and that they were held together by withes formed froimthe bark of a hickory' sapling! 0'ir tra veller ob served further that he xvas plainly clad, that his knee buckles were loosened, and that something 4ike negligence pervaded his dress. Conceiving him to be one of the honest yeomanry of our.landj the criurte sies of strangers passed between them, and they entered the tavern. It was about the same time that an addition of three, or four voung; gentlemen was made to their number, most, if not all, ol them of the le gal profession. As soon s they became conveniently accomnioaaiea, the conversa lion was liirned by one ot the latter upon an eloquent harangue which had that day been displayed at the bar. It was re plied by the other, that he had, vitnessed the same day," ar degree of eloquence no doubt equal, but that it was from the pulpit,. Something like a sarcastic . rejoinder was made to the eloquence of the . pulpit,-, and a warm and -cble alrercation j ensued, in which the merits of the christian 'religion became, the subject of discussion: Ftoeo six o'ebek until eleven the yoiing cham pions yielded the sword of argument,. ad ducing1 with ingenuity and ability every thins that could be said pro and con.

Being a young and handsome woman, she was able' to ipspire the young sailor with a ve hement passion, which she put to a cruel test. Their communications were carried on through one of those windows by looks, siqhs. and when an opportunity occurred, by words. She once, in answer to all his protestations of passion, reproached him with notlloving her enough. "Yon do not love me," said she, "as much as your own little finger."

One for stealing letters containing money a' second for stealing letters containing valuable securities ; the third for stealing letters containing noth ing of value.
