A Faithful Shsdow-A foolish fellow
went to the parson of the parish, and
making up very long face, told him he
had seen a ghost, as he was passing by
a grave yard, moving along against the
side of the wall. ''In what shape did It
appear p 'ln the shape Of an ass"
Go home and hold your tongue about
it," said the pastor, you are a very IL
mid man, and have been frightened by
you. own shadow

the public, l send you notice of his
grandfather, Peter Folser, whose name
you have mentioned in your paper of
the Sd inst. 1t is extracted from an Ac-
count of Nantucket, written in the year

Friend, then living on the Island. See

@OF PETER FOLGER.
"Whan the English first came to Nan
tucket, they appointed five men to d.
vide and lay out twenty acres of house
lot land. TO every share; and Peter Fol-
ger was one of the five. But have re-
marked, that it is said in the records,
that any three out of the five might do
the business, provided the said Peter
Folger was one of them.-From which
tits plain, that the people saw something
in him superior to others. | have OBJ
served also, that some of our old deeds
from the Indian SacLems were exam
ined by Peter Folger, and he would
write something at the bottom of the
deed and sign it in addition to the sig
nature of the Justice; for he under
stood and coul! speak tie Indian
tongue. So that it is clear to me, that
both. the English and Indians had a great
esteem for Peter Folger; who was
grandfather to the famous Ben amin
Franklin, of Philadelphia, lately decea-
sed. His mother was the daughter of
Peter Folger, who lived within forty'rods
of the spot where | was born. And
from what have heard, the whole of
North America prided itself as much
in Benjamin Franklin, as the people of
Nantucket did in his grandfather. l
conclude therefore, that he inherited a
part of this noble public spirit from bis
grandfather Peter Folger."

THE DOG OF THE FOREST.

In the unhappy and too memora-
bic winter of 1890, when the corn,
the vine and the Give, were, destroy
ed bv the severe cold in France, the
wolves made dreadful ravages IN the
fields. and rushed with ferccIty even
upon men. One of these rayenous
beasts, after having broken the win
dow, entered cottage in the forest
of Orte, near Angouleme. The chill
dren. one six, the other eight years
ofage. were reposing on the bed IN
the absence OF their mother, who bad
gone in search of wood 10 klndle, a
fire; meeting with no resistance, the
wolf leaps upon the bed, aud sought to
destroy his delicate prey. Seized with
sudden fright, the two little boys
crept quickly under the covering, and
held il closely without drawing a
breath-so near was the flesh which
c tic d him, that not being able to at.
tain it instantly, the murderouS animal
became more furious, aud began TO
DESTROY the covering with his teeth.
Trifling as was this obstacle, it new
ertheless preserved the lives OF these
innocent children. A large and faith
ful dog, who had followed their moth
CT. returned in time to deliver them;
he had scented the track OF the wolf
at more than hundred yards from
the house, whittier the mother was
slowly returning, loaded with fassotS;
he ran with the qdickness of the stag
he entered like a lion, and falling
upon the animal, who had cndeavored
to secret himself in an obscure corner,
he seized the base wretch by the throat
and dragging hita to the door, strangled
him instantly. Tile alarm of the mo
Their on her return was lndescrlbable.
She behcld the wolf stretched upon the
earth, dog covered with blood, her
bed in confusion and her children
gone: Observing the dlstresses OF
his mistress, the dog ran towards her
with the most energetic sollcliade,
then turning to the bed, he tlarust his
head repeatedly under the covering,
and by the most expressive signs en-
deavored to intimate to her that she
would find there, that which she held
most dear The mother approached,
and extending her trembling hand
discovered that her children were
there, although deprived OF motion;
she fastened to restore them-therc
was yet time-amoment's delay would
have rendered the attempt useless.
When they recovered their senses,
they plainly recounted the danger
10 which they had been exposed-tie
manner in which the wolf entered, aud
heir wounderful preservation. The
aithial animal, pleased in having
saved the lives of'lhesslittie innocents,
BY his eager caresses gave ample tes-
.imony that his Joy was fully equal to
hat of his mistress.

A FIELD OF BATTLE.

From Recollection of the Peninsula
Enough of JOY and triumph. The
roar of the battle is hushed; the hurry
Of the action is over; let us walk over
the corpse encountered ficli.-Look
around, behold thousands of wounded,
writing with anguish, and groanlng
with agony and despair.-Movc lit
tie this way, here lie four officers OF
the French l1undredth, all corpses.-
Why, that boy cannot have number
ed ghteen years? How beautiful, how
serene countenance! Perhaps on the
banks of the murmuring and peaceful
loire, some mother thinks anxiously
of this her darling child.-Herc fought
the third brigade; here the fusI!eefs;
how thick these heroes liel Most Of
the bodies are already stripped; rank
is no longer distinguished. Yes; this
must have been an officer; look al the
delicate wilderness OF his hands, and OBJ
serve on his fingers the mark of his
ring. What manly beauty; what Il
smile still plays upon his lips! He fell,
perhaps, beneath his colours; died ca
silly; he is 10 be envicd. Here char.
eed the Polish lancers; not long ago,
the trampling ofhorses, the shout, the
cry, the prayer, the death stroke,
all mingled their wild sounds on this
spot; it is now, bot for few pityful
and stifed groans, as silent as the grave
itself What is this? A batter ed trum-
pet, the breath which filled, this
morning, its haugty tone, has fled, per,
haps forever. And here, again, a
broken lance. Is this the muscular arm
that welded it:-'Twas vigorous and
slew, perhaps,l victim On this field;
it is now unncrved by death. Look
at the contraction oithis body, and the
anguish ofthese features; eight times
has some lance pierced this frame
Here again lie headless trunks, and
bodies torn aud struck down by can,
non shot; such death is sudden, horrid,
but It's merciful. Who are these, that
catch every moment at our coats, and
cling to our feet, in such humble at
titude: The wounded soldiers Of the
enemy, WHO are imploring British pro
lection from tue exaspcrated and re-
vengeful Spaniards. W""at proud
complement to our country!
A Spartan woman had five sons in
the army, and impatiently expected
news of the battle She asks the news,
trembling, of a messenger, that re-
turns from the camp. your 5 sons
are killed Vile wretch, did | ask you
that: I'VE have gained the victory
The mother runs to the temple, and
gives thanks to the Gods.
Another Spartan woman sees, IN
a siege, her eldest son, when she had
placed in post, fall dead at her feet.

ately) 10 take his place"

PERCUSSION GUNS.
YEvHE subscriber respectfully informs
Il the public, that be is prepared to alter
guns TO the decorating or percussion prln-
ciple, at the New York and Philadelphia
prices.
The superiority of this over the old plan
is very evident from The general adoption,
of decorating guns by the sportsmen in all
the northern cities, where they are greatly
preferred to the use of flint and Steel A
much less quantity of powder is requisite
in loading, the FIRE is certain aud much
quicker, are completely water proof, and
loaded in much less time, more secure a.
eainst accidents than common guns; and
what would render them particularly desi.
rable, no fash can be seen from the lock
in firing.
ANY gun can be altered to this princi.
Die. For terms, which are reasonable,
