A cRUsTY BACHELOR.

An old friend Of mine, Dr.. Dold-
rum, Of Dorchester-rich, snug, in
cumbent of a fine fat living. and bach
elor, was regularly hunted by the old
maids and widows of his neighbor-
hood. His house only wanted lady
to take care Of it, and accor lingly he
was never left at rest upon this impor-
tant topic.
One, however, Of these anxious crca-
turc took the lead Of the others; and
when he once happened to be seized
with serious illness, she resolved up
on nursing him, which she did most
assiduously-ayc, and kindly too
He began to recover: but listlessness
of fever hung about him; and although
his doctors ordered him 10 getup eve
ry day, there he lay, indolent and
weak, and so he went on for week or
more, without once leaving his nest.

Marshal Gerard was lately making
a tour through Belgium, and while at
Antwerp walked to the gate of the CT

the officer on duty. "you should not

BEAUTIFUL EXTRACT.

The glory ofthc summer is none by;
the beautiful greenncsshas become with
cred and dead. Were this all were
there no associations Of moral dcsoa-
tion-of faded hopes-of hearts with
cring in the tosoms Of the living-con-
nccted with the decnying scenery a.
round us, VIC would not indulge in n
moments melancholy. The season
Of flowers vii! conc again; The streams
flow gracefully and lightly as before,
the trees will again toss tho cumbrous
load Of greenness to the sunlight; and,
by messy stone and winding ,rivnl4,t,
the young blossoms willFstart ur,, as ~
the bidding Of their fairy guardians.
But the human heart has no change
like that Of nature. 1t has no second
spring time. Oncc blighted, in It's
hour Of freshness, il wearsaforcvcr the
mark Of the spoilcr. The dews Of az y.
lection may fail, and the gentle rain Of
4 sympathy be lavishcd,upon it-but the
sore root Of bIightcd feeling will never
again wakcn into life, nor tho crushet
flowers 0. hope blossoms with thcil
wontcd beauty"

PRESENCE OF MIND. -Onc Of the
coasters that ply in our bay, came Ia
anchor last week off Freeport. The
sailor who threw over the anchor care
testify, let one Of the fukes catch in his
pea jacket, which was buttoncd up
close, and the unlucky tar was dragged
overheard with the anchor, and unccr-
enormously carri:l down twelve fifth
oms deep, to take up, a berth in Davy
Jones locker. Mt liking his sudden
exit, and feeling that he was anchored
on rather uncomfortable ground, the
gallant sailor, nothing daunted by the
accident, unbuttoned his jacket, threw
it off, and thus extricating himsclflrom
the iron grasp OF the anchor, came back
tn The surface, and was taken on board
with no other injury than the shock his
feelings experienced by 50 unexpected
an application Of the cold water bath.

MONEY MARKET.

The great question Of the resumption or
non-resumption of Mr.. Biddle, still occu-
pies mems minds, and the uncertainty Of
the result retards the advance of return
ing prosperity. The belief now among
our most eminent fnanciers is, that he
will resume either with the N. York banks,
or take few weeks to share with them in
their specie, and sell his bills, drawn on
cotton shipments, In this case, the cotton
under his direction in England must DO
forced into the market, and great crash
in prices will be the consequence, to the
injury ofthe planters and the Mississippi
banks, and through whom he will sustain
some loss from over advances, but trifing
in comparison with that which will be the
result Of different course. 1t is evident
that Mr.. Biddle has mistaken his course
from the beginning with regard to the re-
sumption of specie payments. He should
have been among the first to clafnor for an
early resumption, and have monopolized
the honor thereof;-this would have pla-
ced his bank on such a footing at home
and abroad, that nothing could have with
