Drink your o7un ygrog.-A species Of
robbery occurred in the vicinity Of Con
cord, Mass. in October last, which,
from its singularity, We are induced TO
notice, as caution to the unwary team
ster. A Vemonter, on his return from
Boston, with team richly laden with the
rare g rononS" of that metropolis, fell in
company with three other men OF the
whip, near the town just mentioned, who
were apparently bound to some town, as
they SAID, lover the mountains" They
appeared TO be very civil and jovial set
Of fellows, and our Vermonter, happy IN
finding what he conceived to be good
company, logged on with them in high
giee. They thus proceeded, 'till the
hour of reireshment arrived, when our
hero was invited by his merry compm-
ions to partske of their "good cheer"
He dld so; though not without repeated
and pressing invitations. Having made
liberal potatlons from the :" little shlnino
bottle" produced by them, [into which,
b, the by, good portion OF Opium, or
some other opiate, hid been cautiously
infused they renewed their course, and
had proceeded short distance, when the
powers OF morpheus SO overcome the
hardy son OF the Mountain, that he was
compelled to leave his team to the ere
OF his hospitablc companions, aud seek a
place of rcpose. In this state he remain.
ed y hours, Notwithstanding every
means were used to awaken him. Mean
time his ,good friends, clattd with their
success, made off with his team, goods
and all but, thanks to public vigilance,
though no disparagemcnt to the efficacy
of the bottle, they were pursued to Lud-
low, in this county, where they were
arrested, conveyed back to Concord,
aud dealt with, no doubt, as justice de-
manded The above was verbally COM
municated.-We cannot vouch for its
accuracy. Whether true or not. it will

WreGt! !-Several people at north
ern landing place in Saratoga county
were spectators of the following scene.
A rats mLn who had drunk little too
freely, fell from part OF the raft where
he was employed, and was near drown
ing, when his brother plunged in to his
relief, seized him by the H., and was
struggling with him to the shore. The
tide was strong and the brothers. strength
being nearly exhausted, he was about
relinquishing his hold, when the despair
ing one, raising his head above the wa
ter, exclaimed, "Hang on Sam! hang
on! Ill treat! | swear will !"
His words were stimulating, and his
brother at length saved him.

THE
Declaration of independence

XX7E have no authentic copy OF this most
wv important state paper, the very basis
that supports the proud column OF American
liberty none, at least, on which the eye OF
taste can rest, for moment, with satisiac-
ton. Why have we not
The English nation, still proud OF their
MAGMA ECHARTA, though every proy-
sonit contains has been trampled upon by
the bold ambition oftheir rulers, have pub
lished edition after edition Of this instrument,
each more splendid than its predecessor.
Sir William Blackstone has colated and
commented on this fine copy OF magma
Charta has been cxcelled by later specimens
of ART, and the fac-similes OF the seals ana
signatu, s,have made every reader OF tas'e
in Great Britain acquainted, in some de-
gree, not merely with the state OF knowledge
and of art at the period in question, but with
the literary atiainments, also, OF King Johh,
King Henry, and their &C Earons bold. "
Surely the Declaration of American indie
pendence is, at least, as well entitled TO the
decorations OF art as the Magma Charta OF
England and il the fac-similes OF the sig
natures of the patriots WHO signed 1t were
published in America, it would serve to gra-
tjfy curiosity, at least as laudable as that
which calls for limitations Of the correspon-
dents Of Junius or of the aristocracy that
wrested the English Charter from the reluc-
can't monarchs OF the day.
We are firmly persuaded that the. more
the principles of our Declaration of lndepen-
dence are spread out before the eyes OF the
world, the more they will be admired, by
foreign nations as well as our own and eVe-
ry innocent and honest device that may serve
to attract attention toward them,' will serve,
also, to promote the great cause Of public IL
berry. Such an embellishededition as will
renderit an ornament to an apartment, VIII
have tendency to spread the knowledge OF
its contents, among those who would other
wise have turned their thoughts but lightly
towards the subject. Such an edition will
serve 10 place it continually under the eye
of man. woman, and child in a family-it
will associate the pleasurable ideas OF ele-
gance and ornament with the history Of The
transaction itseli-and famiIiarize those
principles which form, or ought to form, the
very bond and cement of political society,"
Nor is it of small moment that such an edit
ton, well executed, will serve as q specimen
of the state of the Fine Arts amongst US at
the present day. Actuated by these views,
the subscriber proposes to publish
