AN IRISH PiANo.-A sober, industrious Paddy.
IN the Gallon, has lately invented musical box,
for which he deserves patent. Wishing TO enioy
little music on an evening after work, he got a
box of the appearance but deeper and broad
or than an ordinary piano, and bored row of holes
from end to the other Into this box six or sew
EN- swine are placed, of different ages from The suck
ing pig to the gruf boar, exultng in swioehood.
In this way scale of voices is obtained. The tails
of each inmate are then drawn through the holes in
the box, and the lid closed that half dozen tails
hang outside. Whenever Paddy wishes to play, he
twches each tail rapidly and successfully, and mu-
sic begins, and lasts long as he likes. When
tired he just liberates the musicians till the next
time. The airs are all Irish, and when the twich-
ing is smnry aud skifuy done, the music is charm
ing.

carriage at evening. lie employs poet who does
nothing else but to vary his metre aud modes of il.
lusrn,ion in singing the praises of Warren's Black
ing. 1t is not at all surprising that Warren has
allied an immense sum in the sale of this article,
for there is not newspaper periodical in oil

A late Louisville Journal contains an ac- count of' battle between some Indians and q party oi Polish emigrants, to the number of twenty, who had left New Orleans for Mexico, travelling through Texas. Having no guide, they lost their way, when they were fierceiy attacked by q numerous body .oi indians. The Poles had but few guns, but maintained long and bloody conflict, and killed large number of tie enemy. They, however, suffered severely, having had two of their number slain, and the re. malnder wounded: one only reached New Orleans. This statement IS made on the authority of letter from that city.

In the Senate of the United States, op "Wednesday, Jan. 2Sth, Mir. Hing, of Ala baina. presented the preamble and joint res oliltions Of the Legislature of ihe State of Alabama, instructing their Senators in Con be cxpunged from the Journals of the Senate the resolutions of the last session relative to the removal of the public deposites from the Bank of the United States.
 The resolutions having been read,
 A discussion arose, which breughtnp Mr. Clay, Mr. Benton, RIr. King of Alabama, Air. Moore, Mir. Preston. hIr Calhoun, NIr. Porter, and Nir. Clayton, during which Mir Clay offered sbe following resolution:
 Resolued, T hat the resolutions of the Legislature of Alabama, presented by the Senator from that State, ought not to be acted upon by the Senate, nasmueh as they are not addressed to the Senate, nor contain any request that they be laid before the Se- nate: and inasmuch also as that which those resolutions direct should be done, cannot be done without violating the Constitution of the United States.
 Mir. Smith said, that for the purpose of arresting this debate, which every gente man must see sintenered with a most im- portant debate on another subject, (the re- port and bill from the Committee on the Post Office and Post Roads,) he would move to lay the motion to print the resou- tions on the table.

There IS a vast difference between gorgng beyond the ability of the stomach to relieve itself, and satisfying the cravings of the appetite. We're an individual never guilty of any excesses, he would be exempt from the penalty invariably imposed on the breach of any law of the animal economy.
 Instead, therefore, of standing Tn any fear of generous consumption of ripe fruits, We regard them us positively con- ductive 10 health. The very malades commonly assumed to have their origin i'll free use of apples, peaches, cherries, me- Ions, and wild berries, have been quite as prevalent, Il not equally destructive, in sea- sons of scarcity. All naturalists will testify to the importance of the fruit season to the lower animals, particularly to birds. When there IS failure, or an insufficient supply, the feathered tribes are less musical, less
 numerous, and commence their migrations
 much earlier than when imply supplied
 with the delicate nutrition designed for them at certain periods of the revolving year.
 In the scheme of created wisdom the in- dlcatons are clearly manifested that man IS
 omnlvorous; and it was not until muzzled

 the ridiculous hypotheses of another, touch- ing the subject of his food of which he IS
 himself better qualified to judge than the
 most learned physician iE cbristendom, that
 he relinanished the faculty of discrimination.
 implanted i'll his nature, to become the foot ] ball of those who raise themselves into
 short lived notoriety by giving to unfound-
 ed theories the character of only belonging to well established facts.
 There are so many erroneous notions entertained of the bad effects of fruit, that 1t IS quite time counteracting impression should be promulgated having its founda- ton Tn common sense, and based on the common observation of the intelligent.
 We have no patience in reading the endless rules to be observed in this particular de- pertinent of physical comfort. No one, we imagine, ever lived longer or ireer from ise paroxysms of disease by discarding the des llcious fruits of the land in which he finds a nome. On the contrary, they are necessa- " to the preservation of health, and arc therefore caused to make their appearance at the very time when the condition of the body operated upon by deteriorating caus- es not always understood, requires their grateful renovating influence.
