A woman of incorporate habits named
Staples, belonging to Kittery. Me. was found
dead in an engine house in Portsmouth. N.
II on the night of the 18th inst. She was
seen in that ncighborhood or hours be-
fore, and had small Jug of spirits with her
when found; she had probably perished
from cold and intoxication.
An advertisement appeared in London
paper few days ago, offering parrot for
sale. which was represented to be "perfect-
" good tempercd-could laugh sing and talk
and was well worth the attention of any
person in want of a Comhanion.
Mr.. Buchanan, OF Pennsylvania. IN his
speech in the House of Representatives, on
Friday week, said he felt proud-and well
he might-to say that "his native State had
not only paid her officers and soldiers more
literally than any other state, but had also
provided for her militia, who served during
the Revolutionary War"
II Loud CaH-A woman called at the
house of Mr.. Hays in N. Y. last evening, and
requested him to go with her, as her hus-
band had sworn to kill the first man that
came into the house, and she wanted him to
go first to protect her. We should not
think that even the high constable would be
desirous of many such calls.
The Raleigh Star says that the stage
crossed the Roanoke, near Warrenton oil
the ice, on the second instant, circumstance
which has not occurred before since '83.-
We learn that the Cape Fear was frozen
over at Ayerashrouyh also for the first time
since '82.
