UNSHIPPING A DOGS RUDDER.
A veteran tar, who had served under
the late lord Vincent many years in the ca
pacity of boatswan, on getting past exer-
ton, was appointed by the latter in CRATE
full memory of his former conduct, kind
of sub-gardener, at his villa. Jack had
not long been in possession ofhis new post,
when he perceived every mornlng,on walk
ing over the gardens, that several of the
beds were paved about, and the borders
destroyed, indicating by their marks, the
stealthy visits of some canine wanderer.-
Jack Immediately communicated the news
to his Lordship, who concurred with him
in his opinion as to the cause, and advised
him to 90 to the garden few hours earlier
some HnoTilinS, anu Si'S t"0 lht' uu0i I"
warm welcome. Jack accordingly did so
hiding himself in the shrubbery, he soon
espied long lean dog spring upon the gar
den wall, aud jumping into the grounds, be
gin running about and exploring with a
degree of activity and keenness, the depth
of strawberry bed. J",k watched for an
opportunity, and at the moment the dog
burrowed bis head out of sight in the earth,
the tar stole behind him with spade, and
at blow struck off the end of his tail the
dog sprung over the garden wall again yell
ping. Some time ailer,w hen his Lordship
came into the garden, Jack accosted him,
"All right, your honor, we were boarded
by a dog sure enough, of long sharp, sail
ing build, rather white about the bows,
and dark in the midshlps." "And what
did you do to him, Jack?" 81 prevented
his finding his way here any more" "You
did not kill him, Jack?-"Oh, no please
your honor, laid by upon the lookout
4here in the shrubbcry, and when see
him douse his bows into the strawberry
bed, i dropped softly astcrn, and with this

JACKSON AND BURR.

Dfcs are s'ob'oya things "Out of thine own mouth will
coujcnn thee"
II appears from the Wing the eth ult. that Gen
Jacksons lCttar to Gov Claiborne, bears date the eth
November, 1906 and the affidavit Of VIM. Enstan of
Nashville introduced by Gen. Jackson in the record
from Mississippi states that he purchased Burrs draft
on Ogden, on !orsCd by jackson, about the 10th Nov.
1906 II further appears that Burr under trial in
Kentucky on the 5th Nov. 1906 and that he did not
arrive i'll the ncighborhood of Nashville until Dec.
1908 Ofwhon dill j;astan purchase the draft He
could not have purchased it of Burr for he was then
in Kentucky. He must have purchased it of Jackson
the cndorser, his partner Coffee; both living in the
ncighborhood Of Nashville. If Gen. Jacksons letter
10 Gov. Claiborne written in good faith to put
him on his guard against the attempts Of Burr, how
could IL justify it to himself or to his country to aid
Burr afterwards with bis credit his services in the
prosecution Of his scheme, The conclusion is rresis
tibla fom u comparison Of dates furnished by Gen.
Jackson himself. that he lent his credit TO forward
Burrs designs after nc had asccrtained the unlawful
ness of their characters and that his letter Claiborne
must have been intended a deposite TO be drawn
