UNPARALLELED SUCCESS
PROSPECTUS OF A NEW, VOLUME
The great in crease in the subscription list of the
CaSkst since the first of tho year, warrants the
most extensive Improvements on the first OF Jul,
next at which time new volume will be COM
menced with increased vigor. Nothing need b,
said oIthe firm basis Oh which the Caske
stands it being already the oldestmagazine in tn,
country.
TYPE EMBELLISHMENTS.
The Casket is printed with clear and silver,
type, upon the finest white paper. The illus
trations are NOT SURPASSED BY THOSE OF any PIE.
oRIDIcaL Mt home or abroad; and beside the mol.
thly stUelsutrav gngseng!6lIs,I of colorcd plate
fashions has lately been added. The style OF
these embellishments is unequalled, and they ar
always accompanied with an apt sketch. n
wood cuts disgrace. the work; whatever appears
in the Casket is of ilie first order of the art.
LITERARY CHARACTER ~
The literary character of the Caske. il vel
known. 1t is wholly original, Of the highasl
order, and sustained by WRITERS OE THE
FRS T RANK. Essays, Tales Sketches, and
Travels compose its prominent prose articles;
while the poetry is equaled by that of no other
magazine Of like character. The variety for
which the Casket is celebrated, shall suffer no
dininution; but on the contrary, every exerton
shall be made to increase its interest
SEVERAL ROAlANCES OF THE REVOL.
UTION have already appeared. and others shall
follow in the course Of the volume, presenting,
when finished, q complete pcinre oftha manners
! and historical account of The great battles al
| that time. Thus, the Casket, instead Of being
filled with sickly sentmentaliiles, aims at true
delneation Of human nature in every variety OF
passion. -
TINE OF PUBLICATION
wThe Casket is published on the first Of the
month 10 every quarter Of the Union. The
most distant subscribers consequently receive
il on that day, as well as those who reside in
Philadelphia. In all the principal cities agents

ing less than the perpetuity Of the ole.
rious Constitution bequeathea bv o1r
fathers. We all know sir, that in
such a struggle, in contest for such
a prize, we cannot afford to dispute
and Wrangle about minor matters;
and we have, therefore offered up our
preferences on the altar Of patriotism.
Ibis convention has carried out its
professions, that it seeks the prosper
ity and happiness of the whole Union
and that it contends for principles in
stead Of men. Our choice has not been
restricted for want of material. A.
mong the Wings and Conservatives
Of the country, there are a thousand
enlightened patriots, honest, capable
and faithful into whose hands we may
safely commit the Executive Govern
ment Of the country. From such
men we have made our selection,
and now give to the nation a united,
unbrokcn pledge to support it. We
cannot, therefore, despair, OF, permit
our hopes to sink. There is talent
and virtue enough in the nation to
save it. After what we have accom-
plished, nothing is wanted but unity,
energy aud confidence; let these be
but in requisition, and victory will
perch upon our standard, the Consti-
tuition will be saved, the purity of it's
administration restored, and we will
transmit it to our children as we re-
celved it from our fathers. | say we
wiN, because every gentleman on this
floor, old and young stands pledged
to redeem the promise. Depend on
it, sir, there is a conservative princi-
pie in the great mass of the American
people which may be called into sue
cessful action by united effort, and |
am now fully persuaded that victory
will crown our efforts, since we have
this day unfurled before the nation
the Union flag, inscribed with the
motto of the Hon. Mr. Wise, of Viz
ginla, 'sUnion for the sake of the
UNION"

From the Neau York Herald.

Some idle fellow, who confoundsI
folly with wit, and impudence with in
dependence, perpetrated an extensive
hoax upon a great number of worthy
individuals, by making use Of our.
name, at the beginning of last week.
1t appears that on Monday or Tues
day, some one consumed the whole
day in writing letters to different
tradesmen and professional gentlemen
IN this city, giving extensive orders
for all kinds and descriptions of goods
to be sent to this office and request-
ing all sorts ofprofessional gentlemen
parsons, lawyers, doctors, teachers,
musicians, dancing masters, and 9TH
ers-to call preparatory to a require
ment of their professional services.
These letters or notes numbered over
half a hundred; they were all written
in the same hand, and the same style,
on coarse paper, and all sent through
the post office, directing the different
individuals to whom they were adj
dressed, to be punctual in their at
tendance at the Herald Office, 81 Ann
street, on Wednesday, the 18th inst.
att 1 O'Clock, precisely.
Accordingly at II O'Clock, whilst
we were quietly sitting at our desk,
the door of our editorial room was
opened, and in walked dark, dingy
looking man, his arms and hands load
ed with pieces of iron, bars, instru-
ments, &c. necessary for repairing a
CRATE. He very leisurely laid them
down by the fireplace, and began to
work and talk Simultaneously
This fire should not have been here
this morning.
Shouldn't it? we replied.
Unjust take it all out, he rejoined.
You'll do no such thing, we con-
tinued. "a IA esHE
Then | can't work at the CRATE. "a
And who wants you to work at it?
You sent for me to do it.
dbl
Yes; there's your note, handing the
following:
Herald office, I'll finn street, Dec. 9 1899.
Mr. Bennett will be obliged to Mr.
.--- to send a man to repair the CRATE
in the editorial room on Wednesday
morning at 1 i O'Clock. Bring some
iron bars, aud plenty of tools. +.
Its a hoax, my good fellow, we re-
piled, no such order was ever sent
from this office.
Then wish I could find the fellow
who did send it. I'd file his eye teeth
for him, said the blacksmith, as he
gathered up his tools, and went grum-
bling out of the room. The same
moment that saw his departure, saw
the entrance of good looking mid
die aged man, who came busting in
with professional air, and quietly
pulling a large red morocco case from
his coat pocket, united the strings.
,unrolled the same, and displayed a
fearful array of instruments for am
putating, scalping and scarifying.
Is ne up stairs or down? said the
surgeon, for so he turned out to be-.
Upon my soul, ! done know, was
the answer.
Will itebe necessary to amputate?
he continued, with a very scientific
shrug.

self.

0F1We ask the careful attention OF our rea-
ders TO Col. Croghan's letters 10 Gen. Harrison
published in our paper to-day. We wish the
Freenen Of Rhode-lslaDd particularly 10 read
them, that they may see who it was that pre-
vented the destruction OF PERRY's feet while
building at Erie, and ,ciO made every prepara-
ton to retreat, and abandon that fleet without
striking a single blow to save it. Hear what
Crog han himself says, "What saved the boats
aud the immense stores concentrated at Cleve-
land under the direction of Major, now General
Jesup! What also prevented a combined at
tack of land and naval forces upon the fleet of
Commodore Perry at Erie, at time when its
destruction must have been certain My dis
obedience of your orders-my subsequent de-
feat and repulse of the enemy at Sandusky."-
Aud yet, when it is evident that PERRr's glo-
rous victory on Lake Erie would not have been
achieved If tlarrison's orders bad 10, been dis
obcyed-the Wings Of Rhode Island are willing
to lend themselves and the fame of her favorlle
hero, to gloriy Gen. Harrison - Oh shame
phere is hy blush ,"
We are aware that Harrissn's parizans are
endsavorns 10 impose upon the public the be-
leithal Col. Cros han has certified to Iiarrison's
capacity as military commander. Trse it is
lhat Croghan did sign such certificates, but he
has satisfactorily explained their origin; and
the seli-sactlilcln2 patriotism which induced
them most raise him high in the esteem Of no.
bic minds. Did | not" says Col. Crcghan
TO Gen. Harrison, literally sacrifice ,ayself 10
sGrc yoU? Did not. at moment tcLen the
excitement caiRSt you hroae bout he ,0hoLc State
Of Oljo, amounted to general cianor, WHEN
THERE WAS ALMOST nUTINY IN YOUR VERY
CApP At SENECA, do every thing that you and
ysur friends required sf me, as necessary 10 re-
instate you in the good opinion Of the people
and OF the army! The success of our army
required that You, the general in-chef should
have the confidence of all; and TO insure that,

cause | was told that it was necessary; wrote
letters, approving throughout your conduct.
and subject TO your corrections. without asking
what they might be, because was assured by
members of your family that you Yourself be-
lisved hat Oh my expressions in relation to you

parallel might be drawn between the course
THUS pursued by CRoGHAN towards Harrison,
and that Of PERRY, towards Elliot, but it must
be SO obvious to every Rhode Islander that it
requires no comment.
