A DUCK.

A person was convicted at the last term Of
the criminal court Of stealing a duck. On the
prisoners being brought to the bar to receive
his sentence, the Recorder stated, that he
thought the indictment defective, as it did no,
charge it to be a dead duck; for it might have
been . miM duck Ltore notwa,) the taking Of
which would not be crime:
The Recorder stated, that some years since,
during the time he was Dis,ric, Attorney, he in
aicted a man for stealing a duck out Of the
market, but did not charge it to be dead: the
indictment was declared defective, by the pre-
siding Judges, and the prisoner discharged
The prisoner, no, understanding the technical
defect in the Indictment, supposed it was not
theft to take any duck; and the next morning
he went into the market and actually stole a
large basket Of dead ducks. When a%rraigned
at the bar, he insisted that it was no crime, as
he said the court had already decided upon his
former trial. But to his surprise and as!onish-
ment, he was convicted by the jury, and SEN
fenced to the penitentiary by the court. He
complained most bitterly, that the court had
led him into such a scraps. ~ I. Times.

To the Editor of the NeW York Times.

SIR happened to fall in company the 9th
err day with one of your political sages, and be-
ing a Jacksonian myself, and hoping TO find him
SO too, | asked him what he thought of Gener-
al Jackson's prospects for the presidency? He
said his opinion on that subject conceded with
the opinion of "the grea: Republican party of
the state Of New York" ] asked him if he APP
proved of the formation and measures Of the
present administration of the general govern.
men,? Yes, said he, provided they meet the
appreciation Of "the great Republican party OF
the state Of New-York." / asked, if he did not
disapproye of the Panama mission-oft the pro-
posed tariH-of the introduction OF the colonial
trade? Certainly, he said, if those measures
were displeasing TO "the great Republican par.
~ of the state Of New-York." interrogated
again-are you for Adams, Jackson, Clinton,
Calhoun, or Van Buren,, for the Presidency? He
re piled, that he should be the firm supporter Of
the one selected by "the great Republican par
to of the State Of New-York." Not yet quite
disheartened, I told him he was a busy politi-
clan, pretended to great knowledge OF the ma
tons concerns--and an intimate acquaintance
with the qualifications of its great men. l wish
ed to know his individual opinion, or even his
partialities, il h. had any, respecting men and
measures! He said he was against commit
tals"-and that his opinion and partialities
would hereafter get their form and semblance
| from "the great Republican party of the state
of New-York." I asked him what the party
consisted Of, and he replied, that it was as yet
uncertain. Such politics, Mr. Editor, are as
mean, as they are dishonest-,hey would not go
down with US in lENNEssEE.

Gay. who has always been a firm and steady
friend, we v~entured to accost him upon the
Presidential subject. He was tor old HICKORY
whether or no. We asked him what objection
he had to Mr.. Adams? "Why, he didn't know;
but" said he, an tell you what, ! don't Ire
him." Is he a capable man? "Yes.. has
he not had the confidence of the republicans
of the United States for many years express

reason to doubt it," Have not the measures

been of a nature calculated to advance the nation
in power and glory: "They have" Well, what
