She readiljr obeyed, and was no sooner gone than his Lordship handed over house furniture, and all, to the person to whom, during the pre ceding night, he had lost the; whole by . one unlucky throw of the dice-box. , .The day after the battle of Stoning t ton, several British officers were invkeo on shore to dine, - While at dinner,- a lady, sitting next to one of the officers. asked him to explain to her the flags of , different nations that decorated the room. After telling her to what nation several of them belonged, he pointed out to the Star Spangled Banner, and said with j a sneer, that is what we call a Gridi ron. I presume so, sir, said the lady with quickness, by the broiling' you had upon it yesterday. A STRIKING "-HHCIDEKT.T. :-;"An iucident which .transpired in thje Crirainal Court of Baltimore, during the proceedings a lew days since, 'says the -drgrtt,.cansea no smaii aegre oi eja citement startling His -Hou6r, from a Sonambulic position, precipitating the BailuTs lrom their VArious perches and causing a1 ruslt, extraordinary, upon th part of spectators attorneys, aud even jte ofct Apple- Ladies who garnish the door-, ways of the Temple oT Justice" .wth fruit for sale, both seasonable arid un reasonable. , ' . . The origin of this commotion,, was a 'colored woman named Andersii, plac ed on tnal for the theft ot a watcn, tfte. property of Mr. Cunningham. ; Tfce wife f the prosecutor having tIeliTereu her testimony, with a truthfulness: whicH fined she robbery: upoa tno prisoner; te yond the lossibility of a' doubt, ; walked towards the. bar in which the, culprii was seated. Tliecoioredesperadja co sooner perqeived the witness ' within the grasp of her clas7 than she arose and dashed upon Jber .with tFje fjf&JlEir. gress. J, f v The unfortunate lady's face jwas, bat tered, we understand, -in quite a dreads ful manner, and one of her.yes consid erably blackened ere the infuriated con vict could be secured, and draggedway Jrom her unrt-sistirig prey. The child Lof the assailant, a . stout, dingy, colored lad, about seven yearsiot age, interfered at an early stage of the hostilities,- and whilst his 'mother was attacking -the luckless" lady in front he managed to open a 4 fir in-the rear,1 by tearing her dress in 'it 'manner which defied a dress maker with a scarq. of rleedleVto remedy. At length the warden of the jail, his deputy wardens, andthe bailiffs, all ral lied to the ' rescue, f-',. . "The tigress -was compelled to unloose herjioid, and, being forced again into the prisoner's box, to receive her doom, Judge Stump ; appeared ' to her with -a sentenw of five years" and 6 months in .the Penitentiary just three yearjs-more than, it is said, she would have received had she kept her claws and talons fold ed instead of exercising them upon the person b the Lady- Witness'. - -Th Parkersburg Gazette says that Sav-Nothinss is the style and title of a new secret society,-recentTy organized in wmo anu otner oiaies xi is a iocu,kjco institution and its members make it their busness to worm themselves into Know Nothing Councils, and then report pro- ceedmgs: to head quarters.
