Nneeds genius 70 discover genius.--Strange as it may seem, Robinson Crusoe was hawk ed about through the trade, as a work of ne- ther mark nor likelihood; and at last accept ed as a proof of especial condescension, by an obscure book seller It is singular, but not less true-and we leave our readers to draw their own inferences from the fact that almost every book of any pretensons to originality has been similarly neglected Paradise Lost with difficulty found a publish CT, while the whole trade vied with each oth- CT in their eagerness to procure the works of such dull mechanical writers as Blackmore and Glover; GuHiUer'8 7raveLs lay ten years in MS. for want of due encouragement from the booksellers and in our own time, and in a lighter branch of literature, the 1liseries of Human Life, and the still more inge- nius Rejected Addresses were refused by the trade with indifference, if not contempt. To crown the list of works thus misunderstood, Sir Walter Scott has left it on record that WaUerly was actually declined three several times by the acutest publisher of his day; and at last ushered into the world, after it had lain twelve years unnoticed in it's authors desk, withdout, hesitation and indfference.- dite Posteri!-11onthiy Margarine.

.Anecdote of fBanking-''Talking of Bank ing," said friend of ours the other day, "IIl tell you curious fact relating to the craft. When old S--t the banker, felt his health fast declining, he called for his son and said. William, have sent for you to talk to you very seriously. I have long observed the steadiness of your conduct; I hope you will continue in the same course By my will you will find that l have divided what I have equally among you; you can prove what a. mount you think prudent at Doctors Com mons, but l am not worth shilling. Our bank is rotten, and has been rotten for yeais."
 Good God?' said William, T always thought you very rich-havc you not large sum sir, in the Iron box ? sAh William said the old man sthat Iron box was to blind the clerks The iron box William, is empty, and has been for years. Continue, however. my dear boy, to attend to banking-some lucky turn may happen-the bank is all can leave you-make the most of it-keep the sc- cret and the secret will keep you for years. Don't put down single carriage or horse--a. banker is thought nobody unless he lives like prince.
 William did as his father bade him-prov- ed half million at Doctors Commons and the bank continued nearly forty years to enjoy a good reputation, but crashed at last, with many others, and paid 3s. Sd. in the pound. -London Pafler.

AT THE SIGN OF THE RISING SUN, TUSCALOOSA. "HE proprietor of the CITY HOTEL
 H returns his sincere thanks to his former customers, and solicits d continuance of their favors; also requests the public, generally, to give his house trial, and although he may have no spirits for sale, he would not be un- derstood thereby to prohibit those favorng him with their patronage from the use thereof, or from keeping their rooms supplied with them honest and obligng seivants will al- ways be at hand to execute any commands which the wants or. comfort of guess may re- quire. This establishment and servants be- ing the property of the subscriber, he ex- poets to continue the business permanently, (unless an opportunity to sell should offer), and being pleasantly located in the centre of business, and in it's construction one of the most convenient, its advantages are surpassed by no other house in the city. The rooms are large and well ventilated, which render them very pleasant and healthy in summer, and very convenient at all times. The un- paralleled health of cur city and surrounding country, having for years been so good, that we can with great proprety invite persons who wish to find healthful retreat, tc spend the summer with us We have a Mineral Spring, two miles from the city, to winch ma ny have resorted during the two last summers, who all speak highly of its benefits to their health. To such this house would be plea sant home, as it has suits of apartments in entire private situations for the accommoda- ton of families, with private tables to such as prefer them. The proprietor hopes his e1- ertion to please will render his house plea sant residence to such us favor him with their patronage.
 To this establishment belongs very exten- sive stables, which will always be stored with the best of provender, and attended by ho- nest, industrious, and skilful ostlers, with a convenient tot for droves, Sec.
 Notwithstanding my expectation to be per- manent in the business, owing to the ccnfine- ment, &c., am disposed to sell cut the es- tablishment, but the business being profita- ble enc, will by no means neglect the vigilant prosecution of it, because am offering to sell, but will rather be more attentive than other wise. This establishment affords also enc of the best stands for merchandise in the place, and has very fine finished rooms for that l,u- siness, attached to which is very fine water proof cellar.
 As do not propose selling for the purpose of raising money particularly, will extend the credit to great length of tine-the mo ncy being well secured, anl the interest paid annually.
 also, have several tracts of land, and some lots in this place, which would sell on very extensive credits. JOHN MEEK.
