I WILMINGTON, N. C. THURSDAY, APRIL 17, 1856. ORGAN OP THE TOWN AUTHORITIES- " SCRAPS OF HISTORY. ... No. : In setting forth some matter under the above bead, we propose, as time and . 0f porlunity may permit, to give some remin iscences of the war of 18i2-'14, and other incidents that we thfnk may serve as illus trations and examples that may invite at tention if not imitation. . We feel no confi- T , K ...a. eViall instruct nr mii3( niir UetlbV iUUb WB Mt. siMftAwv - ' readers ; wenly hope so y about what we may lack in wisdom we will not be alarm ed, being fully advised of the truism : A little nonsense now and then Is reluaed by the wisest men." , ', We do not propose to present anything of consequence in consecutive order, hav- hig no nvemomndiMUr or ciphers to- consult or explain-; but simply memory, bjr whose promptings- we will scrupulously abide, without having recourse to fiction. When we are not sure we will guess, as the man ner of many is, and which is best for all, rather than to be positive about an uncer tainty. . "Well, I guess it will be no great things," one cries but. Well you just hush I How do you know what we are goin to say , ' : v j . It was in the early fall of 1813, when we were at Fort Mifflin, on the Delaware, andwas a Sargeant in the Artillery,: of which the brave General Scott was the Colonel William Dunns, tho Printer and Editor, was the Adjutant General, and we we Can say be was quite a good looking officer. We once saw him set handsome examples in drill, at the camp near Ridley, by putting down a pole with a flag at top, at different points of the parade ground, at which points the right of divisions were to rest. We knew but little about this mode, and cannot correctly describe it. We nev eriav anything like it in the conflict of armies. " . "If any aristocratic reader shall feel shocked at the word Sergeant, we will tell him that before that we were a Drivate and a . . .i , i . ... a corporal, and obtained a Commission in the regular order of promotion, after we had been eh?a?ed in some of the practical ope- O M rations of the drill. ; If you turn up your nose at this, you can do so; we will not tell a lie for you any how ; for the reason that we think that if you had been at the first 'point enumerated, you would have stuck there to this day had you lived so long. . Would hardly have lived long we guess; would have died of fright as like ly as not. . f But we digress. In the cantonement was a company of Infantry from the South. We had seen southerners before, but these wire the first southern men we had ever seen in enmp, and the peculiar manner in which the officers called their servant, to whom we afterwards learned they were ex ceedingly kind, struck us with surprise it sounded outlandish" Oh ! Billy." This was when they wanted a stae, which some all " cocktail n others w morning dram," 'with sundry other naniesBot jnecessary to enumerate. We once heard a man at the Sthnth call it an Artichoke nitv but what il had choked him, sure enough, for so miscalling U. - We remark ,that this prac tice of morning drams was not peculiar to the persons c t wnom we speak. We never understood the philosophy of tne " ua : - oeiore amy uu we came to me South. We will endeavor to illustrate the matter so that our northern readers may unJerstand. When servants are at a dis tance from the master, as they frequently re on plantations and other places, the exclamation " Oh I" attracts attention, and Billy designates the person wanted. The negroes say " Dat massa, who he call?" "He call you Billy," is the reply. ; - But we digress again. We desired to sav that the men and officers of the South ern detachment, were considered as our brethren in arms; beloved for their courte sy, respected for tbe character, and sub aentientlv ndmirerf Ins tKir vnlnr With , the soldiery there was indeed "no North, no South, no East, no West," and this senti- . tnent was in the heart of that soldiery, but : had no affinity with the expression of the politician, with whom it is almost half the Ume nothing but flummery, and the other half mere u moonshine," if we may say so. In those days we,guessed we were all one, as the motto on the sacred banner cf tho Republic E Pluribus Unumn in dicated, and that southern citizens were entitled to the kindest emotions and to the most cordial esteem, and all the generous jmpaia.es vt our nature, in tnese latter ' years we have done guessing about ir, we . 1- . .1 . &now n to De so. -'We need not say that in the incidents wnicn auenaea me earapaiga m upper Canada, the only one of which we are personally cognizant," that the New Eng land and the southern soldiery, vied with each other in striving to meet the expect lion of their beloved country, and in doing this, a community of danger created an ardent and mutual attachment There were no Hack republicans- in camp at the time of which we write. Such a fellow would have been drummed out of it to the tune of M The Rogues March." 3- No. 2 in another part of this paper. . LOSS OF CATTLE. The loss of cattle by the cold weather in Texa3 has been immense. Not less that one third of the stock in many counties, it is tLoj jbt," bad been lost . A SPUNKY FRENCH WOMAN. A young French woman was engaged as dressing-maid to a lady of rank in Rus sia. ; One day, whl combing oat her mis tress's long black hair, she hurt her head ; and the lady turned round and gave her a slap on the face... The French woman, who had hold of her hair, - which she was on the point of tying, so ;tbat it was all gathered together in her hand, grasped it tightly, and then inflicted a sound, correc tion on the lady's ear with the hair brush. TRIBUTE TO PRINTERS. The Chaplain of the N. H. Peniten tiary, in reviewing the events of his life since his connection with that institution, pays the following compliment to jour neymen printers ; , v i I have the happiness to number among my friends many printers, but though it may seem to imply either a lack of abili ty on the . part of the minister, or the want of the qualities that are necessary In order to appreciate good preaching on the other part yet I will reveal the fact that I have never succeeded well with that class. For the nine long years, and with all the inducements off ered, not one of that trade has connected himself with my congregation and 1 do not think a man could be found,, of all who ever ten anted our prison, who could set up a col umn of type. I leave the reader to make his own comments, only remarking, that this can not be accidental, nor can the explanation be that the employment keeps them ignorant of prevailing vices and immoralities, nor yet that young printers are removed from the large mass es where corruption engender and spread. In all these respects this class are much 'exposed. It is evident, we think, that the employment has an elevating tendency, and is favorable to intellectual and moral improvement. " A MURDER TRIAL. Appearance, of the Murdered one. The Cleveland Plaindealer of this week says: "On Saturday an examination took place before Justice Hessenmueller, of Michael Wyngert, for the murder of his wife. This prosecution was induced by the sudden disappearance of the woman, about six weeks since, and it was supposed, from the habitual ill-treatment to which she had been subjected, that she had been murder ed. No trace of her could be found, and the statement of the defendant confirmed the suspicion. The evidence in the case had been heard, and though it was circunf stantiak, the probability of the murder was strongly sustained. "At this juncture the court room being crowded by excited spectators the woman alleged to have been murdered made her appearance, to the great surprise and grat ification of all, and especially of the cul prit on trial. The woman had abandoned her liege lord and sought the asylum for the poor at the Infirmary, where, sick and forlorn, she had received care and cure. She, of course, was totally ignorant, of the charge of murder against her husband and it was only by accident that the intelli gence came to those who were cognizant of the trial, and she was sought out and produced at the Court, to the pleasant as tonishment of all concerned." DEATH FROM TRUNDLING A HOOP. A boy eight years old, named Francis Mages, died in Philadelphia last week from the effects of being struck on the knee with an iron hoop which he had been running on the sidewalk. The hoop came against a man named Lyons who kicked it when it struck deceased and caused him to fall. Inflammation of the knee and affection of the chest ensued and caused death.

At the constant and earnest solicitation of near ly every body, but especially the old acquaintan ces of "ye Animal," we have been induced to pro mise, it "provender" enough can be secured, to trot that beast ont again" to the gaze of all man kind, and the nniversaladmiration or womaukind, during the first week in January, 1856. "The Live Oiiaue" nulla it was a neutral pa per, while it grazed in its own green pasturage, played with the git Is. and joked witn tne boys, was the most popular sheet, animate or inanimate, that ever icsued from a Southern press: and had it been content to have lived in its own native sphere, it would now have been the ' Biother Jonathan" of the South. Sncb a result can but be evideot to any thinking man ; it was, indeed on the high road to fame and a most enviable distinction. But becoming fat, in an unlucky moment, like tho man who had grown "rich en ough to ride an ess," and had. therefore gotten above his follow, the "Animal' leaped the bars of its accustomed field, and the next thing we lu-ard of him, he, like a man turned politician from preachrr, was pining for the good things ot life, and no doubt, like ihe silly lamb of old that eluded the sight of the shepard, and got into the thick woods which was touud to be intested witn wolves, be wished himself back in bis old range. But the bars had been put another rail higher and be couldn't get back ; be8ides, he had grown so lean that he could not jump. It Is said that bought wisdom is the best in the world, if it dont cost too much. A mighty true saying ; one in which there is more of truth than poetry or romance, and in view of this old saying and the Annimal's experience, bis old friends need have little fear that be will at any lime hereafter cut the same caper again. He'll kick any man that would intimate auch a thing. The Live GirnS'o will then be neutral. It will be devoted to fun, lo the news, and literature. It will be made the vehicle of publishing many a thought to the world, fiiDDV, grave and instruc tive, that would havo wat-d itself on the air "aa summer roses do," but for its columns ; it will seek every opportunity to turn grave and uninter esting matter into pleasant and agreeable inci dents ; upset all ill-natured humanity it meet with and mould it anew; expose -all rascality wherever found, whether in Church or State (that's promising a great deal.) or in the social circle, and keep a strict watcn on the pres, litera ry, religious, and political, aud see that each keeps its bounds. The cilizens of Raleigh know well enough the value of such a sheet, and wonld not do without it another year for half a million. Why, since the exit of the Animal from their borders, they have had more bad luck tban waa ever beard of before. Mnre Trusts have been made, more liens been given UDon Drouerty, more assignments made. more qnarreling and fighting, more drinking of itqttor. more meanness generally, ana more ill luck than ever was known at any period since the great plague In Egypt. Now this is as plain as daylight, and the only remedy for such evils is to trot oat the Animal sealn. So I think. Now, this is the proposition I shall make to you. I want an assurance of your willingness to patronize the Animal, and to get that assurance I shall give you full opportunity to correspond wito me and to send in ai tne names mat can do se cured. ; - ' If 500 names cm be secured, we shall have no fears o 'the success f the. Animal. He will soon grow fat when be begins to take exercise, and, then be can plead bis own case, if not with elo quent words, at least with an occasional kick at the boys. It has been Intimated to me that the connec tion I suatsiued tothe "Carolina Pennant" would ininra the Animal since the 'Pennaot" bad sod denly expired and left many of its subscribers in the suds. I have to say here, and I hope it will satisfy everv body that I bad no interest in the Pennsnt." I wrote most of its Editorials far which I should have received something according to sgtv ement but I did not. t have tried this co-business and it neither pays nor suits my ge nius. I want a broad hemisphere, a wide lati tude, and nobody to divide with me in the spoils, Then, friends, we now understand escb other I want vou to send me your names between now and the first of January; if enough respond, the "Animal' will make bis bow; it not, no barm done Tbbms : Two dollars per annum, payable on delivery of first number; two dollars and fifty cents if Daid in six roonts: three dollars if not paid till end of year- E5f No money will be re quired until the first no. is isuea..j R.
