A HARD CASE.---A Yankee schoolmaster,
a: teacher of chirography, not long since located himself
in Rensselaer county, New York, and commenced a school
under the most favourable auspices. He gathered round
him a score of pupils, most of whom were of the fairer
order of creation. One, in particular, was, we under-
stand, a very angel in features—one of your beautiful country
maiden., which spring up in their seclusion, fair as the
wild flowers of their native valleys. As might have been
expected, she played iniquity with the heart of the school-
master. Day after day he sat by her side—guided
her taper fingers, and felt her dark tresses lightly sweep-
ing his cheek, as she leaned with him towards the ma-
nuscript. It was too much—human philosophy could not
stand it. In a luckless moment he pressed his lips to her
cheek, and imprinted upon it one of those kisses, in which
The lip will linger, like some bee
Sipping a favourite flower,"
And what think you, gentle reader, was the result of all
this? Why, the unfortunate chirographer was prosecuted
for his lecture on kissing, and turned adrift with a tine of
1,000 dollars hanging over his shoulders, like the pack of
Runyan's pilgrim. Far be it from us to undervalue the
charms of the lady ; hut, really, if she sets such an exor-
bitant price upon her cheek, it will he a long time, we
opine, before she ha's another opportunity to exact it.--

THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.)
CORN EXCHANGE.
The arrivals of English Wheat and Barley still remain very
limited, and the brisk demand for fine samples keeps the prices
full as high as on Monday. The arrivals of Oats from Ireland
are extremely large, notwithstanding which they fully support
our last quotations. In Beans and Pease, with a moderate de-
mand, we find no alteration. The supply of Flour is good, and
the prices lately given are fully maintained.
