A YANKEE HORSE.

From the New York National Advocate.
Wafl>street.--A hoax has been PLAYED
off on one of our knowing friends of Wall
street, at which we know not whether to
laugh heartily, or be exceedingly angry.
A tight fellow brought into this ceIebra,
ted street a beautiful spotted pony for
sale. The horse resemblcd leopard in
the richness and variety OF his spots, and
attracted universal attention He was
purchased by an honorable member of
our board Of Brokers, who having made
aiucky hit that day, was in good spirits,
ard gave a good price for the animal. who
was soon caparisoned, and his new mas
ter, with whip in hand, canterrne him
out On the third avenue, and sallopped
him back. The horse performed ex
ceedingly we'll, and was 10 foam on his
return to the city. when 10, and behold |!
as the sweat oozed from his tanks and
the pores Of his skin, the spots disap-
peared, and were washed away. The
horse had been tainted for the purpose,
to cheat the knowing ones of Wall'street,
She stood by the door ofterthe ride inhis
original dirty grey & yellow s'redeemed
regenera,ed, and diseBthraled.
Some fellow from the ssuniversaI van.
kee nation"-a maker IF wooden nut
megs, had played off fhis hoax; it was
quite "prime bang ups but if any OF
our board can catch him, we shall Shave
him close. "All's fair in stocks" az on

Mr. Forsyth and family, were to have sailed
in the ship Hunter, but capt. Davis could not
wait for them, and they will take passage in

"Your minister to Spain, Mr.. Forsyth,

countered constant delay and difficulties
on his route, especially between Rayonne

The road is said to be literally cover ed
with troops OF the invading army, com.
manded by dukes, marshals, counts and
generals of eveay degree, all advancing
with confidence of victors, and expecting
or seeming TO expecs, find victims and
not opponents IN the Spanish troops
They Will, however, if reliance can be
placed on theaccounts of those who have
recently traversed Spain, be wofully dis.
