LADIES-THINK OF TIIIs.-NVile men owe
much OF their vileness to ,Oomen of character
VINO hardly ever scruple to receive them into
their society, If the men are rich, talented
and fashionable, even though they have
have been guilty of ever so much bascness to
other women"
Who said that? 1t is s'true as book
and truer than great many books which are
written In these days, and that do not con-
tain half so much value as is embraced in the
foregoing paragraph. 1t is astonishing to us
that ladies, both married and unmarried. who
appear to value their characters and who GER
talnly move with much ton in society, will
receive into their parties and caress--nay,
VIII not hesitate to be seen in public places,
arm III arm, with men whose characters are
pretty well understood to be bad in the worst
sense that should be odous and hateful to a
pure female mind. We have seen the society
OF such people honored and preferred over
men of exemplary characters, merely because
the latter could not be called rich or fashion
able. Such an error as this in the female sex
is a positive injury to the cause of sound mo-
rails. Ladies need notwonder at the inuuity
there is In the other sex as long as they do
not make guilta disqualifying circumstance
against them.-They should scorn even the
approach of such wretches-for wretches they
are, though high in Office and as rich as Crue-
sus--and repel their presence as an afiront
and insult to their sex. Let them do this,
and the guilty would soon fall to the ignomi-
NOUS level to which their infamous con-
duct should reduce them. We would not be
unjust In this matter, butIeally we never can
see ladies of quality allowing themselves UNI
der any circumstances, in the company of men
whose chastity is suspected, without having
our own fears that all is not innocent OH their
own side. A woman, as well as man,
should be known by the company she keeps.

Sam, to sell his clocks, has recourse to

says, 1t is no harm Miss, you know, for Ma
is here, and must look near to tell YOU so
draws her onmy knee, without waiting for
an answer. Then gradually one arm goes
round the waist, and t'other hand goes i'm the
head, bumpelogisin, ard l whispers-wit,

every good thing almost. And she keeps
sayin'-Well he's witch well how strange!
lawful heart! Well want to know now
never! do tell as pleased all the time as any
tnlng. Lord, squire, you never see any thing
like 1t, Its Jerusalem fine fun. Well, then,
WIND up by touching the back of her head
hard, (you know, squire, what they call the
ammative bumps are located there,) an then
whisper bit of joke to her about making
very loving wife, and so on, and she Jumps

beauty of Phrenology.-You can put clock

little bit dangerous. Its only fit for an old

fool ofyou without your knowing of it.

WASlilNGTON.--It is well known that
at the close of the revolutionary war when
the army, unpaid and wretchedly provided,
was almost in state of mutiny, the royal
dignity was rendered to WAsEINGToN bv a
committee of officers. The country was in
an unsettled state, the confederation almost
poweriess; war had exhausted the land. and
distraction prevailed in the general councils ;
the army was devoted to its general. The
occasion was ore which selfish ambition
would have sprung to seize. If the Repub-
tic owes much to Washington, the great and
heroic warrior, for achieving her indepen-
dence, what is the amount of obligation for
which American liberty and human freedom
all over the world are indebted TO him for his
more than heroic conduct at that crisis Here
IS his reply to the proposal which set royalt,
before his eyes--tbe letter has been lateI,

DARING AND DESPERATE OCCUR
RENCE

For long period we have not heard of
circumstance SO daring and desperate, as that
which we are about to state. On Wednes-
day morning last man named Coonrod
went ON board the Maysville packet Swift
sure, and asked for employment, but not get
ting any, he engaged for passage on deck.
While on the passage, he attached himself TO
one OF the Cabin passengers, and induced that
person to drink until he felt inclined to go to
sleep, which he did in the Deck PASSENGERS
quarters. On arriving at Maysville, Coonrod,
the CABIN passenger, who by that time had
become sober, and another Deck passenger,
went ashore and entered a tavern. There the
cabin passenger proposed TO stand treat but
on going to pay he missed his pocket book.
He Immediately charged Coonrod with the
theft, who denied it but on being pressed. he
made for the door and ran off. A cry was
raised, and he was soon brought back, but
as In the meantime, the property had been
found near the door of the tavern, where it is
supposed Coonrod had dropped it OIL running
out, the owner did not wish to do any thing
more about the affair. Not 80 with the crowd
around, on observing which, Coonrod again
ran off and made for the river, into which he
dashed and attempted TO swim off; but on be-
ing threatened that he should be stoned TO
death II he did not return, and a promise benp
held out that he should not be detained, he
came ashore. He was then Immediately
seIzed, and finally committed to Jail. During
his examination, the prise was heard TO
threaten that if he was sent to Jail, thew should
not find him there in the morning; and he
made good his threat but too well. During
the night he contrived to set the building in
flames! and in the morning, nothing was
found OF the desperate and unfortunate wretch,
but a few bones smoking among the ruins of
his prison! For these particulars we are in
debted to the attention of Capt. Molen, of the
Swiflsure. We have learned since, that Coon
rod had been known fer some time in this CITY.
and that he did not bear good character.
