We End, in two or three of the paper.
which have cnme to hand by the last mail
the follow ing Epitaph on the late Mr.. Gal
lard which is by all attributed to the pen OF
Mr.. Calhoun. The original authority ioI
this production is the =. Hampshire States
man. The inscription is pithy, eloquent and
accurate in it's statement of the qualities
which ought to be combined in President
Of the Senate; and it exhibits throughout an
understanding Of the subject, as well as a
degree of intellectual visour, of which Mr.
Calhoun would not, we presume be ashamed
THIS MONUMENT
Is erected by the United States
To the memory ofJOliN GALLIARD,
A Senator from the STATE of South Carolina;
WHO died at Washington, Feb. 26, 1896.
In the discharge of his public duties
He was man
Of manners plain, but engaging;
ofsn understanding vigorous and correct
And of integrity the most inlcXble.
lie followed the wishes of bis own State
When they were the wishes Of his country.
And he connected himself wM party,
Not 'us an Instrument of ambitions"
i" But living depository Of principle"
All his ends were public ends,
And all the arts by which he sought to obtain
Them
Were manly arts
III deserted no friends mhen MeV were ossailcd;
.7udhe united himself wiH noeaemies
Tor the Suhe Of increasing his o,co potyey.
lie could support government
Which was not administered by his friends
And he could oppose measures Which he
Deemed wrong,
With frmness.
Without coarsncss and rancor,
Amidst the most violent conflicts of parties,
And in the discussion of momentous questions,
He never, for moment,
Lost tine character ota gentleman.
During the time he presided over the Senate,
lie treated lis members
As ft'ey were ain his friends
And, by such conduct, he made them So
In all appointments,
Which it was his duty to make,
He sought to crafty his own Judgment,
And not the feelings, passions, or wishes
Ofhimself, or ofothers.
And by his rigid adherence to the rules
Framed with so much wisdom
For the government of the Senate,
lie preserved that good order
WaHout ,ohich, pubGc business is getardad-
The feiings offhe me,nJers eccifcd and iaSuaed,
.and the dignity cf'Me dody lost.
May lis Successors
IN the high Office of presiding over the Senate
That great Assembly of the States
REFLECT,
That this monument will be their reproach,
they neglect to ,emeni5e,
And RESEMBLE him.

The Mulatto child, Elizabeth Jones, who
was advertised in this paper last week, as
having left Phiiadelphia, and who 1T was lear
cd was kidnapped, arrived at Wilmington,
in the Steamboat, on the day She was miss
ing in the assumed character OF servant to a
lady OH board. Upon the boats arriving at
the wharf the girl went on shore to her Ia
theirs house, where, however, she made but
a short stay, and has proceeded upon anoth-
er excursion, whittier, no one knows. Her
father represents her as being an uncontrol-
able child, possessed of a rowing propensity,
and ressts every inducement to stay at
home. He informed us, that yearor two
apo she left home and went from Philadel-
phia to Jersey, where she roved about,
knowing no one and unknown to every bo-
dy, and was at length found by similar ad-
yertisement inserted in the public papers.

1t is stated in the Upland Union, that the
apple of the common cedar tree is an effect
nal remedy for the expulsion of worms from
children. They may either be eaten raw
while fresh from the tree, or if dry, be pound

is at all events harmless, and its efficacy APP

Race Ertraoramary.-A few days ago,
two young clodhoppers, near Dumfries,
England, made this singular bet:-That
one would run to the next farm house and
back, a distance of mile and half, before
the other would eat sconce, Ga loaf of
Dread made of bean meal and oat meal. The
spectators were assembled, and two farmers
appointed judges of the race, when the two
compettors made their appearance, the one
stript to the shirt and trowsers, and the o.
Their handling his hammock, whose circum-
ference was almost equal to the disc of full
moon in her zenith. The runner bounded
of with speed, and reaching his half dis
lance, was greeted with glass of grog by a
young mistress, who wished him luck /; but
great was his modification when he came
within thirty yards of the winning post, he
saw the last mouthful of the sconce dsap
pear. The whole was finished in eight min
ae. aees. But the sconce eater complained more
VI his grinders than the other did Of his run

sidered worthy of attention by many, when is re.

A. J. Patriot.
:" believe most Of the opposition party are honest
in their views, yet do sincerely believe that the
principal leaders of that party acuated not with
view to the public interests, but to turn the other
party out OF Office, in order that may they get into
Office, to divide the oavcs and fishes, and honor OF
office. do acquit and houorably discharge General
Jackson OF this CHARGE believe him an honest, IN
telligent and virtuous man, and incapable OF nrieu
ing or bargaining for any Office; +; yet think many
OF the opposition rally round General Jacksons
popularity, and abuse the administration, to raise
themselves into power and honor, with no other
views than their own promotion. If these men had
the power, should not expect better admnlsra-
tion from them than the present incumbent oil the
