The weather has again become cold From Fri day evening to Monday morning last, the mercury has been below freezing point. We had light fall of snow Saturday, succeeded by steady wind from the north, with bleak cloudy skies. Every one who has good grate, and plenty of Black Warrior Coal blesses his stars, and thinks himself happy by comfortable fresde, not forgetting to pity those who are doomed to puff and blow with bellows, to coax up a weak flame into pile ofgreen oak wood, of d cold frosty morning.

By referring to our columns ofegislative proceed ings, it will be seen that the session has not passed away without a smart skrmish with the mammoth Bank of the United States. We have given the resolutions as introduced by MT DnLAHuNTY, in the House of Representatives; its history through that body for several days, until it's final repose upon the table of the Senate. It left there to be consid cred of in time to come. Judge Claytons review, and the one sided policy of the Branch Bank at Mobile has contributed to public attention to the dangers with which we are threatened from this devouring institution. But as the enemy has not got fairly entrenchcd in his camp, we confidently calculate beating back his foragng parties, when ever they venture beyond the line of outposts.

From an English Paper.

Fishing Extraordinary.-A gentle
man of this town, who is in the habit of
visiting Arran annually on fishing ex-
cursion, was last week enjoying his ac-
customed sport, when, after a few glori-
Gus nibbles, his flies disappeared, and in
a jiffy, every inch of q line, above hun
died fathoms, spun out, with the veloci-
ty of lightning, from his reel. Wholly
engaged with the subject in hand, he
thought nothing about his footing,
which he very soon lost, and before he
could say Jack Robinson, he found him
self fairly afoat. Expert at swimming,
and intent on securing his prey, he seized
the rod in his mouth, and s. ruck out vig-
ourodsly. Then came the tug of war
his antagonist, on one tack, was stand
ing out to sea, and he, on the other, US
ing all his. energies to make the land
Victory seemed to declare in favor of
Neptune; and our fisher, ieceding from
the shore, was pondering in his mind
whether he would slip the tow-line or be
towed to sea. At this critical juncture,
a brother sportsman, who had, at dis
tance witnessed the struggle, hove in
sight, threw him his rod, and thus turn
ed the scale Of victory. The aid of this
new ally proved more efficient, and, in
a few minutes huge porpoise lay gasp
ing on the strand. Two to one against
the poor porpoise, and out Of his latitude
too, what could be expected. A few
blows with bludgeon and he was rem
dered hors du combat. To disengage
the hooks an opening into the captivc's
provision store became necessary, when
the cause Of his capture became appa-
rent. Trout had first caught tho fly,
and the porpoise afterwards caught the
trout, and hence they both fell into the
fishers toils.-The contents of the store
room into which the captors had cut
passage, presented most curious med
ley OF commodities. Amongst these was
a piece of velvet vest, the remnant Of a
shoe with an iron heel, a silver watch in
ruins, lady's sewed tippet or collar,
and the fragment Of flute. From the
charge Of epicurism they very justly cx-
empted the watery rover, but found 1t diff
cult to dislodge the opinion that canibal-
ism, as well as trout stealing, had been
amongst the number Of his crimes.

FREDERICK. Md. Oct. 10.

A friend, upon whose accuracy and
veracity we have the most perfect reli-
ance, youches for the truth of the follow
ing:
The Devil aoifh fpo tails.-We have all
heard of LIE DiaJle Boiteaux, but it was
reserved to this age, and to the city of
Frederick, TO discover The devil with two
tails. On Thursday night last, cara
van Of wild beasts arrived in this place,
and put up at one of the hotels. Among
them Glanced to be an elephant, which
being too large to enter any ordinary
stable, it was found necessary to accom-
modate in a large and close carriage
house. This it seems, had been previous
ly taken possession of as a lodging for
the night, by hale two listed negro
from the mountain, who was employed
in hauling timber to the rail road, and
who had never seen, or perhaps heard
of an elephant before in his life. He
was fast asleep when his roommate was
ushered in, and did not awake until ms
was his custom, at the first dawn of the
morning. Hearing rustling in the
straw, he turned and looked, and rubbed
his eyes and looked again, until the pu-
pills dilated almost to bursting
Hence, ,horrible shadow, unreal mockery, hencc!'
What could it be The devil to a
certainty! The huge mass moved and
approached him, and when 10 tail Mt
both ends put all doubts to flight, and
revealed his Satanic majesty in all the
terrors of his reputed attributes. With
one despairing spasmodic leap, the af-
frighted wagner rushed against the door
1t was lOcked-and there was no other
possible way of escape. He screamed
for help; he groaned in agony. Worse
than that of Sancho in the pit, was the
predicament of this miserable African
for no kind master was within hearing
to afford him protection. The Devil
with two tails" stood over him, and
wrapped his soft flexible fore-taiI around
his neck, and whisked it in his face
and then she grinned horribly ghastly
smile." In vain he besought him to
have mercy-to spare him little long
er. The Devil with two tails needed
not his supplications-but kept smelling
and feeling him, and brandishing his ia il
which he now extended and now con-
tracted, until, in the imagination of the
negro, there was nothing SO distant or
so near as to be secure from it. The
louder he screamed the more the devil
felt him. Shrunk up in the least possi-
BILE dimensions in n corner of the room,
he awaited, in state of alarm, border
ing on distraction, the issue of his horri-
BILE adventure. The keeper of his tor
mentor at length came to his relief, and
released him from the jaws ofthe enemy.
After his liberation, he had severe
chill Of several hours duration, accom-
panied by transient arrangement.
Having now not only recovered his
health, but his courage, he swears "by
ginny he was not so much skeered at
his bigness-but that tarnal tail at each
end-he no like um."
Querc-Does not Sambo deserve the
premium offered to the best original tail!
