A capital anecdote, this-whether true or not.
 The DevI out-,0itted.-A person, we are told. lately went to dealer in wool, to pur- chase about twenty pounds of that article. carrying, as is usual, sack to put tin. When the sack was flied, the steelyards were not at hand to weigh it. The dealer immediately went in pnrs lit ofthem; While he was gone. his customer looked with an evil eye upon lot fine cherses in the same room with the wool, and hastily put one(of the finest, weigh ing nearly twenty pounds. in his sack, mixing it up with the wool, as the expression was. supposing he had obtained a valuable prize.- On his return, the dealer quickly perceived by the weight ofthe sack. that his honest friend had put cheese there. He said nothing, but quietly weighed it. His customer said noth- lng, and as quietly paid him fifty cents pound for his cheese. under the denomination Of wOoi.-Prov. Jour. t'

Natural Curiosity. The skull and jaw bone of monstrous sea animal. recently exhibit ed in this town, which has ever been presen- ted to the age. It is sad to have been taken from a. serpent that was found dead uron the water on the 1lth of May las. near cape Cod. The tail of the animal was broken of, and hanging by the skin. which is supposed to have been the occasion of it's death. The monster, as the advertisement described it, was 75 feet long, and shaped like a serpent, with no fins, but tail like fish the back was black and hard like an aliigator's, and the belly yellow, ,and rlbbtd d like whale. The skull an jaw bone were ak that the finder, Capt Abraham Small, was able to bring a. shore, on account of the putrid aud offensive stat of the creature, which had probably been dead some time when it as discovered. The bone exhibited was IS feet long and wide,& weighed 1900 pounds. When the flesh was on it, it might have borne sume resemblance to horses head. We are strongly inclined to believe that this may have been the great Gloucester Sea Serpent himself, or at least, one of the family - Lancaster Mass. Isl,

AFFAIRS OF THE EAST.

The following is the latest foreign intelligence, as received by the New-YOrk papers of Tuesday.
 It is now confirmed that the Russian troops crossed the lower PruIh and Danube tn several corps on the Eth of May at Roni and Ismael. On their approach the Turks set fire GalaIz and retired to BTahi. low. Wallasha & MoldivIa occupied without resistance. The Russians were expected at Bucha- rest on the 9th. Russian fleet had sailed with l2, 600 troops on board, which appeared of the mouth of the Danube, steering for Varna, where the troops were to be landed.
 The Grand Duke Michael set out from St. Peters burgh the 4th, and the Emperor the7th to join the Army. It is said that the army will pass the Danube till after the Emperors arrival lslaem.-- The Turks are reported to have assembled at Buga- ria and Romeiia, inclusive Of the garrsons and for tresses 2O00 regular troops, 600 body guards of the Pacha, and about 10000 militia.
 Letters from Jassy, dated May 9, state that the Russians continue to advance with rapdity, their ad vanced posts that day, B wersts beyond Jas say. TheIr force occupying Modavia amounted to B, ,000 men.
 An artncle dated Cons,antnopIe, April 9, states that the Baram had passed over quietly and that there did not appear to he the least symptoms of larm of disposition to nsurrectiOn the city. The Sultan has issued repeated and vigorous orders for the general armng of the people; according to these, 3OOOO men, are to assemble at Rudschnk, 5000 at Adrianople and ,00O at Constantinupie; ; but as the latter division only amounts to 2500O men, it IS assumed that the others do not amount to more than fourth of our nominal force.
 letter from Consantinople dated the 2Oth h.t. says that there had been .eat cavalry review at which the Sultan appeared in European costume, and com manded in the European manner.---The conduct of the Sultan and the Dvan appears composed and reso- ue. and in the Porte, tranquility prevailed though not accompanied by apprehension. Several Russian ships ofwar had appeared at the mouth of the Bospho- rus which led to the strong apprehension ofa bombar ment.
 Accounts from Egypt to the 18th April state the de- termned resolution of the Pachato support the cause of the Sultan in tue Morea. Provisions had been re- ceived at Alexandria, and produced a great sensa- ton.
 The French papers state on the authority of let ters from Alexandria, that the Pacha of Egypt was busy engaged in repairing the fortifcaions ot the city, and raising new troops; the number of reg uar troops remaining in Egypt was scarcely 10000 men. It was feared that the Allies would, in short time, blockade the port, as a large convoy was preparing to sail and it kaown that the Allies woud. not suffer any further slrcors to be sent to Ibrahim RI A4
