steel sharply upon the nipple or decorating
cap, which isp'aced in a hole communicated
with the powder and shot, and of course
the gungoes offimmeaiately.---Eng. Paper

ABSTRACTION OF AUrHoRs. The fol-
lowing anecdote is related of Leasing, the
German author, who, in his old age, was sub
Ject to extraordinary fits ofabstraction. On
his return home one evening, after he had
knocked at the door, his servant looked out
OF the window to see who was there. Not
recognising his master in the dark, and mis-
taking him for a stranger, he called out,
"The Professor is not at home.'' ooh.
well J" replied Leasing, no matter, will cali
another time," and he very composedly
walked away.

HON. JOHN c. WRIGHT OF OHIO.

This gentleman, one Of the ablest members
Of the present Congress, seems 10 have boon
singled out by the leaders Of the opposition, as
a mark at which their venom and vengeance
are to be dire cted. Twice since the setting OF
Congress, has Mr., Wright been personally as
sailed by that old brute, GEORGE KREMER,
a man who seems to have been placed in the
Hall of the National Assembly, for no other
purpose than TO abuse its dignity. late num-
Der Of the National Journal, speaking of the
indigni.ies offered to Mr.. Wright, has the fol-
lowing FREQ and pertinent remarks, which
were first published in the teeth Of the Boor
ofPennsylvania.
"it is somewhat amusing 10 see the shifts Of
the Combination TO sustain themselves. At
one time the organ Of the party here declaims
against the President, because he docs not re-
move every one from Office, who has had any
concern in duclling, notwithstanding that Gen.
Jackson has been engaged either directly or
indirectly, in more duols and afrays than any
man now living in the United States. Bat al
though the official Jackson paper thus declains,
in three days afterwards, it exultingly announ-
ces that their main voucher-Mr Kremer has
met Mr.. Wright, of Ohio, OH the Avenue, and
most heroically spit in his face, and that MIR.
Wright dare not resent it; and that. conse-
quently, Mr. Kremer is very polite gentle
man "a fit and suitable companion for Mr.
Calhoun, Mr.. Tazewell, or any other good
Jackson man. 1t is not long sincs that 1t was
stated in this paper, that there appeared to be
. determination, on tho part OF the managers
Of the combination, TO urge some despicab!e
dosperado 20 make personal attack upon Mr.
Wright-.to make use of violence. II appears
that We werc not mistaken. |: the Telegraph
can be credited, the act is already done, and
all the party aro in exultaion on the occasion.
II now seems to bo Jackson doctrine, that
members Of Congress who don't choose to give
in their adhesion to the Hero, mu,i be dooIred
10 81 silent in the lIouse, and hoar all sorts of
abuse hcaped upon them; or, by maintaining
IN debate the integrity Of their cause and char
