BATTLE OF LAKE ERIE.--We once heard
an old salt who if we remember rightly,
was in the engagement, describe the sub
sequent scene on board the brave Perry'e
vessel. One poor fellow was sent below 10
the surgeon, with his right arm dangling
like an empty coat-sleeve at his side. It
had been shattered near the shoulder, and
amputation was pronounced unavoidable.
He bore the painful operation without q
groan or murmur, although "cold drops Of
sweat stood on his trembling iesh." An
hour or two after his arm was amputated,
he called the surgeon to his side, and said,
81 should like to see my arm, if you have
no objection. None in the world, replied
the surgeon, off you de sire it." The am
putated limb was brought, and poor Jack,
pressing the cold hand, which had forgot
its cunning, in his left, exclaimed, with
tears in his eyes: " FAREWELL messmate!
You and have weathered many tough
gale together, and now we must part. You
have been good friend to me; | shall ne
yer find such another" t.-4.

The Supreme Court of the state of New
York have decided that the banks created
under the General Banking Law are corpo-
rations, and that, as such, law creating
such institutions requires the votes of two
thirds of the members of the Legislature,
before it can become a law. This would
seem to settle the destiny of the new insti-
tutions-had not the court also raised the
question, whether they could go beyond the
Statute Book for the evidence as to how
the bill was passed.
