Original Anecdotc If Albert Gdliatin.-
This eminent American citizen began his
career French Teacher, in the interior of
Pennsylvania. Early one morning, while
riding towards Philadelphia from one ofthe
western counties, a farmers daughter came
out of her fathers house with her milk pail
in hand, land without rcrceiving that stran-
ger was near, put one hand on the fence,
and with the pail in her other hand, boun-
ded over without touching the rails. Her
form was handsome, and her agility so
pleased the conntryman of William Tell
that he halted his horse, rode up to, the
house, proposed to make the maiden his
bride, obtained consent, and after placing
his intended at boarding school in Phila-
delphia for short period, in due time
made her Mrs. Albert Gallatin.-C Oloni-

 We notice, with great pleasure, the eenclud- ing paragraph of the manifesto. It shows pa triotic resolution to condemn the ovefbearlng means heretofore repeatedly resorted to in Mex ico, by military, to produce political changes by ~Pronupciamlentos,' which are only declara, tions, with arms in hand, against the existing state of things.
