Painful Oecurrence.-'The New York Courier
and Enquirer Of Monday has the following. a
few evenings since n young gentleman, the son of
one of respectable citizens, came into the
soloon of a foreign Coffee House in Broadway,
and watching his opportunity while the bar-keeper
was otherwise engaged, very deliberately stretched
himself over the counter, pulled opoa the money
drawer and abstractcd from it quantity Of silver
change amounting To about sixteen shlngs
Thinking that he had possessed himself of his
booty unobsered he called for three plates of Sar
dimes and other refreshments, for himself and two
young friends who had just entered the room lav-
ing a,e and drank sufficiently, the young piterer
impudently rendered in payment dollar of the
stolen money. The master of The house examined
the dollar and then the contents of the money draw
err and turning to the cuprit asked him how he be-
came possessed of that piece Overwhelmed with
confusion at the unexpected question, he attempted
to stammer out reply. The benevolent landlord,
unwilling to expose him in crowded coffee room,
invited him into an adjoining apartment and then
delivered The following exhortation to the trembling
criminal, which it is hoped will have salutary ef-
feet on him. You though yourself unnoticed when
you opened my drawer and stole my money, but
you mistaken /: | saw you, and attended ifyou
left the house follow you into the street, and re-
cover my property but when you called for refresh
ment for yourself and the other young men, was
resolved upon seeing how far your lmpudence
would carry YOU. | have no fear but that you will
call again and pay me for what you have had.
Now give me back that which you took out of the
drawer, and 90 home in peace, and when you retire
to rest reflect upon your bad conduct, and think
how near you were bringing disgrace upon your
respectable family y.-Happy to escape easily,
the young fellow restored back the money, and
without u,tering word in reply, left the house as
quickly as possible"

who is the sweetest solace Of that and yellow

Hull. whig, and Foster, democrat and Van Buren,.
And so close is The race between these wo that the
whig candidate, if elected at all, viii come in by II
majority Of less than five hundred over Foster. In
the Senate, which las, year contained not single
man but wings, seventeen members have been cleo
ted by the people the opposition tickets, and two
Vacancies in Essex county must be filled from the
democratic ticket, the candidates that ticket
standing highest.s So that the Senate will now
stand, whig 81, democratic and antimasonc, 10 :;
while the House. which stood last year, about 45O
wbig, to $50 opposition, now stands about $50 to
$50. In many towns and counties, the whig can-
didates have barely squeezed in, and next year we
think there is little hazard in saying, they will be
squeezed out On the whole, we think the whig
party of Massachusetts might as well make their
will and repent of their SINS This will be busi-
ness enough for them for year, and they
must die, they had better make preparation to do
the thing decenty; and not make such a fuss about
it, as Rhode-Island whiggery has done.
Some papers that FIVE have been elected leaving but
one vacancy.

come our painful duty to chronicle another most
heart-readnc occurrence from the triHing with
powder. The particulars, we have heard them,
are these: ADoLpH, son of Mr.. John Pedrck, at
Glassborougb, iii this county, aged some l6 years,
on Sunday morning of this week, who cunning,
with his powder in an uncorked bottle in his pan
aloons pocket In discharging his piece, the flash
reached his powder, what is more probable, a
grain of isnited powder fell into the bottle and
poded the whole. He was manged in the mos,
heartrending manner; he was literally blown in
two and died almost Instantly VIII parents never
learn to keep powder and fire from their chill
dren! Scarcely sheet is issued that does not
contain accouat of some similar catastrophe"

Remarkable CHcumst0ncc.-The Charleston
Mercury relates the fowing:-
During the late gale, whilst the schr. Laura,
Capt. Walker, was in about latitude 80, North, and
to the Eastward of the Gulf Stream, about 20 miles
from land, she was visited by very large number
of land birds, which appeared to have been blown
off by the wind, then blowing very hard from north
to southwest. Many swept by the wind be-
yond the vessel and in the endeayor TO return on
board, fell exhausted into the water and pcrished.
\ great number on board, and were sheltered
in the cabin, - were killed and eaten hy the sal
lorS. As can be recollectcd the folio wing
birds identified red-headed Woodpcckcrs
Reed Birds, Mocking Birds, Blue Jays, Stone Plov-
ers, large Blue lierons and Night llerons They
remained with the vessels until the gale abated
when such able took their departure for the
land. At the time immense hocks of wild
Geese were seen flying over, some of which mani
tested a disposition to aght upon the rigging"
