In house at the BreomieIaw, e cat is
now engaged in nursing and rearing two
kittens, about six weeks old. Some ten or
twelve days ago, a mouse, certainly Of in
sinuatlng manner and address, formed e
most intimate and friendly connexion with.
this family. The mouse cats and sleeps
with the cats; lives at bed and board with
them. What is most extraordinary, the
old cat often takes the mouse in its mouth
from one place Of the house to another, but
neither she nor the kittens ever hurt it.
though they often jcsile and set their paws
on it, whilst feeding in the same platter,
and though madame puss, the mother, still
is, and always has been most indefatiga-
bic watcher, catcher, and killer of mice.

a singular circumstance occurred at Ea.
ton, q short time since. In consequence os
the death of an elderly widow, of the name
OF Coher, who Kept a shop in the general
line, between the two Eaton bridges, the
executors under her viii, determined to
dispose of the shop for the benefit of the
legatees. A purchaser was soon found, at
whose desire the shop and premises were
to be cleared for his possession. In small
sugar-clcset, in corner of the shop, was
found cask of elierberry wine standing
upon an old deal box. The cask heinz
taken away, one of the executors observed
that the deal box might be left for sre
wood, and was about to quit the 5face
when the other called him back, as the boy
appeared to centain something. Il was
opened, and to their astonishment they
found 7S5 guineas, and notes to the amount
OF G7S5. Among the latter were fourteen
$50 notes. The sequel of the story may
be related in very few words. There
being no document among the effects OF,
the old lady relative to the newly found
treasure, several disputed claims have been
laid to it, and it is now in Chaneery.

| During the debate, some little excitement was
manifested, .ad many approximations were express
ed that the excitement would increase with the
progress of the investigation. Something was said

tuiiona. They had undertaken TO give Kentucky
code of Laws under the title OF rules of Court,
and if this system were allowed TO continue, we
might as well cry out for Monarchy. The evil
required redress, and he called upon Congress TO
make il. 1t was the duty Of Congress to watch
over the liberties OF the people, and to that
no usurpations, whether in the shape Of rules of
Court, or in any other, were practised upon them.
This arm of the Government was going silently
increasing its strength, and by its political con-
duet, MOVING on ward consolidation. He be
lIeved that the only way to remove The evil, was
to limit their term of Office, and restrain them with
in their proPer limits. The object of the resolu-
ton as 10 propose change in the judiciary
System, to make the execution laws IN the
several States, the rule for the II. ). District and
Circuit Courts, within those States.
