JoNATHAN.s RUM TRADE.

The quality of Rum is said to depend much
upon the climate and water Of the place where
it is distilled. Of the distilleries in the IJnitsd
States those of Newbern. IN CO. and Darien,
(Geo.) are noted for the excellence of their
spirit, particularly the latter, which is said to
be of quality hardly distinguishabIe from the
West Indian, and yet is generally sold at a
much lower price. The following amusing in
cident, which recently occurred, is given by the
last Raleigh Register as an illustration of
the prejudices which many still entertain
against articles of domestic manufacture, and
OF the preference given to those that are foreign
over the domestic of a value and quality nearly
or quite equal
-" A northern vessel came into Wilmington.
IN. " with cargo of Rum distilled, as the
Gun awkward Captain alleged, in the United
States, and as he believed, in Georgia. His
papers appeared fair enough as far as thew
went, but were thought TO be rather defective.
The dates were somewhat old He had touch
ed at Charleston-he had assisted a distressed
vessel at sea-he had been blown off the coast.
and know not what lame G. suspicious accounts
ne gave. 1t was suspected he was SMUGGLING
from the West Indies, and very bad, dam.
hhg circumstance was, his Rum was good
much too good to be made at home Every
IuDlcund nose IN wilmington smelt, and every
palate tasted, and all said and swore it was
prime West India. The vigilant Collector
very properly libelled both vessel and carso.-
The whining captain requested the Rum might
be sold to save expense, while the trial was
pending, which was accordingly done. 1t sold
readily at auction for 81, 10 a gallon, while Da.
rien and Newbern Rum, known as such, would
have brought only 45 cents. No sooner was
the cargo sold and the proceeds fairly lodged
IN the Bank, than Jonathan seemed to come to
his senses. He was now wide awake. He
found some other papers that had been over
looked. He could give clear account of his
voyage. He proved beyond doubt, that the
Rum was manufactured at Darieu. His ves-
sci was released, and he pocketed 65 cts more
than the common profit upon every gallon /
believe he had the grace not to sue the Col
lector for damages"

CHEAP PLEASURES. In Dr. Atkins letters

study of nature is in itself cheap study yet
it may be pursued in very expensive manner,
