PRoscRIPTIo ION PRosoRIPTIoN Washington City
has become a sort of "Centra Galows" for the u.
States. 1t is there where men find themselves be-
reft in moment, and without defence, ofpower
and station. The Patriots Of Canada 'srung
up" with more ceremony. The Great Executioner,
Martin f. a child Of Undertook "according to the
flesh" but, in habits, feelings and principles, an
imitator of "my lords of the "British Aristocracy,
has taken up the axe of prescription IN good earn
est-re commenced the reign of terror-and that
man in Office who does not at the height OF his
lungs shout in the Streets and at all places, for the
Sub Treasury, and long reign Martin Van buren,,
is lucky wight fheidoes not find himself "rotated'
from Office. The scars and wounds which he may
have received in fighting the battles of his country
in the Revolution, OF like Gen. Van Rem sselaer,
in the second struggle for independence, afford no
guarantee that he willno fall victim to the ruthless
despotrsm of the Central Inquision now in full
operation No.-snch honorable marks Of patriot
ism seem to be looked upon rather as dsquah-
cations for public services by the present dynasty,
if their acts Interpret rightly their feelings. From
all parts of the country hear of prescriptions
for opinion sake This is intended to drive those
holding office who dare be Independent, into the
support OF Van Buren,. But, there are some who
will not be frightened from an honorable indepen-
denoe of opinion, by any such terrors. There yet
remain, indulge the hope, those who dare to
breathe freely without first asking Martin Van Bu-
rem, for that liberty.

MIR John NlcGrabb sold a COW to Mr. Jonathan
Easy, and gave him regular bill sale, describing
the animal as folows-'Dark brindle--a white
spot in the forehead-two horns prolruding from
Just back Of the fore shoulder Mr. Easy took the
cow and had possession Of her long time, raised
and sold considerable stock from her and she SEEM
ed TO grow and more valuable as she grew
older. Old McGrab, seeing what likely cattle
came of her desperately anxious to repossess
himself of the breed. The pastures of McGrabb
and Easy being contiguous, Nc Grabs folks now and
then took the liberty of milking the brlndle COW.
Not conended with this, and finding Jonathan a
peaceable, quiet sort of man, McGrabb conclud-
ed that it would be safe, and consistent with his
usual practice, to appropriate cali as occasion at,
orded. This raised Jonathan dander little, and
he asked Mr. McGrabb in a civil sort of way,
"what he meant by such sort of neIghborly free
dom ?"-"Mean - says McGrabb, rather grufl1y !;

question for you to ask Mr. McGrabb- did mt buy
her of you, and hav mt bill of sale Of her under
your own hand /? | am not sure of that, Mr.
Easy. l must examine into this mtater-our folks
are pretty we'll satisfied that the COW you pretend
TO claim is not the | sold you. We will just
look at the bill of sale and think our folks can
satisfy you, if you a reasonable man, Mr. Easy,
that is not the COW you take her for. Accordingly
Mr. Easy procured the bill of sale and the COW was
examined. BrindIo-that's rght-white spot in
the forehead, right-two horns one on each side of
the head just so-white spot the left side, just
back of the fore shoulder-stop Mr. Easy, there
have you-Iust step this way, Mr. Easy, if you
please. mir McGrabb, during the examination
had taken his position in front of the cow)-now
Mr. Easy, take you to be candid, honest man,
will you look at this COW, and then say, If you
that the white spot specified in the bill of sale is
! on the left side WHY really, MIR McGrabb
dom understand what you after. Do you
pretend to say that this is not the animal bought
of you That question I'm not bound to answer,
Mr. Easy. l insist that this is not the cow describ.

Mr. EpIToR--l have just arrived from Downing
Vile. There is trouble enough in that neighbor-
hood can tell you, all growing out Of an old dis
pute between John Nc Grab and Jonathan Easy.
The particulars you will find in the Downingville
Gazette enclosed. Since my arrival at Boston, ihave
heard say that Squire Somerset is going 10 SEQ if
he can't settle the matter. AS every thing depends
upon the ''position' taken in order TO determine
on which side Of the brnde cow the white spot Is
located Somerset's your specially as he has
some black cattle in dispute with old Nc Grab.
He will doubtless make such an arrangement as
will be entirely satisfactory To Mr Easy for whose
