ROLF, THE GERMAN STUDENT.

Rolf, having no remittance from home, and being in want of good dinner, saun- tered about the market place of the town in which he resided. The busy throng had dispersed. A few stragglers only re- mained who,with hungry eyes, were view ing the tempting morsels. A sudden thought struck Rolf. He boldly advan- cod, and, taking one of the people aside, whispered to him that he was sent at that hour by the celebra: ed Dr. Addlebrain to purchase the tail and two hind hoofs of an OK, as that learned physician had dis coved that calcining those substances with the back bone of an ass, he might obtain a powder which would be an infalible cure for the gOut, palsy, pesfilence,-in short a complete panacea. Before taking out a patent for this wonderful discovery, the doctor wished to make final experiment, and for that purpose sent him to purchase the necessary article. As the butcher

London papers to the l7,h of February, Paris to the 2lst, inclusive were received at Boston, on Monday, the 18th. by arrivals from England and France. The English pa pers furnish nothing important but those of the French capital contain number of inte- resting articles relative to fhe affairs of the East, which had suddenly assumed more warlike aspect than we were prepared to ex- pect from the previous accounts. We copy below some of the articles referred to. The latest dates from COnstantinopie are to the 14th of January. It is stated that several Greek merchants. of great wealth, among them ReaIIi, had been arrested and executed; and that others had become alarmed and fed. Orders had been issued for the subjects of England. France and Russia to depart; and fears were entertained for the safety of many ofthem. It will be seen, by an article in our last, that Lord CochraKe had arrived in Engand.-He gives fdtt ring account of the affairs of Greece. A
