thrown away the Colonial Trade, the British Go

into the West Indies, where we could have 90
bills of exchange to pay for imported Stilton ant

This conception of shipping cream to the tro
pics was too much for MIR. Cambreleng. who looked
reproachlully to Mr.. Van Buren, for invading hi.
province. Mr.. Van Buren,, however, returned

firm belief, that if Gen. jackson could be made
President and Van Buren, Secretary of State, We
might ship cream to Barbados and Antigua.

In addition to the interesting accounts which
have been q iven to the general entertainment OF
the country, respecting the adventures of Messrs.
Fan Buren, and Cambreleng, the following sup
Elementary anecdotc may be thought worthy of
perusal. An honest Datchman of Kinderhooh,,
New York, heard the story of Mr.. .Nacon's break
fast, and how that the great patriot, Mr.. Fan Bu
rpn, had patriotcally renowned the consumption
If cheese because there was duty Of nine cents
per ID. on English, Cheshire, and Stlton and all
for the protection Of dairy women, and the oppre,-
sion OF the nation; and particularly Of the : Pat
riot States" The good man had also learnt from
the Philadelphia Address that there were also du-
ties ON Tobacco and Paper. for the protection Of
Southern Planters; and both Southern and North
ern Papermakers
In view of these facts, and under the excitement
produced by the first reading Of Mr.. Cambreens's
humuurous and convincing discourse, replcte with
"genius and APPLICATION delivered on the same
SUBJECT at the same breakfast, he proceeded to Al
hany, immediately after MIR. Van Buren's return
from the South inquired whether he and his
neghbors might conscentiously continue to smoke
their pipes, and take the Try Budget: and wheth

ny, they should act agreeaby to the wishes Of the
Republican party - and whether also the same
party would approve of their making use of sufli-
Gent cheese at Kinderhook, to bait rats.
Mr.. Van Buren,, in the most courteous and con-
descending MANNER took down Dutch Alma

calculated for the meridian Of New York, 4 would

land just SO, said he, il is with the opinions Of

is an example; that opinion was calculated for
the meridian Of North Carolina, where they have
mn diaries; to apply it to New-fork, would be as
great mistake as to make use Of an Almanac of
Louisiana, or OF the last year. Then, with most
!nslnnatng smile, he told the believing Dutchman,
that he might continue to take pipe, to take the
Budget, and to take rats with toasted cheese all
which, he rather thought, would meet the approba-
Zion OF the " Republican party fIe concluded by
advising the good man to pay strict attention to the
excellent instructions in the Budget. about "pre-
mature committals,'' lnasmuch as they were the
instructions Of the " Republican party This
sad the honest Dutchman cheerluly lit his pipe,
and retired, having his mind relieved OF load OF
anxiety.
