TEMPER ANCE.


The keeper of a little grog shop in
narrow dirty lane said to his acquaintan-
ces. "Thcsc temperance folks arc doing
a deal of mischief. On Saturday night
the wortmen, after getting their wages,
on their way home used to stop at my
store and drink. used on that night and
the next day to take a hundred dollars.

These are the views, sir, (said Mr.. CO.
which he had taken of this deeply inter-
csting question. lie believed he shared
them with those friends who have hithcr-
to acted with him. We consider that we
have made great sacrifice of our own
wishes and preferences in conserving to
the proposed modification Of the branch
ing power. But it has been madcfor our
country and CTR friends. And he ardent
ly hoped that there would be a just appre-
citation OF the concession, and the spirit of
the concession, now proposed; that it
would be met hero and elsewhere by a
corresponding friendly spirit; and that the
whole nation might rejoice in having once
more restored to it the incstimable bcne-
fits of second currency, regulated ex-
changes, revived business, aud restored
prosperity.

GRENOUGH'S STATUE OF
WASHINGTON.

The Madisonian says; "The
ship Sea, arrived at the Navy
Yard on Friday evening, from
Lcghorn, bringing Grenough's
far famed statue Of the father Of
his country. 1t is said to be a
magnificent work of art, impart-
ingto the subject as much of grace,
dignity, and sublimity, as was pos
sible to conceive. 1t is destined
to take the place of Jefcrson's
statue in the Rotunda ofthe Cap
ital. 1t is Of such colossal size
that it will probably become me-
ccssary to remove a portion Of the
wall OF the Capital to introduce
it. The statue OF Jefferson, which
Congress declined accepting, will
be removed, we understand, to
the yard in front flhe Presidents
House."

LOVE, ROMANCE, AND DEATH.

The Coroner was called, yesterday
morning, to view the body of young and
lovely female, who had committed suicide
under circumstances of strongly roman
TIC nature. The name OF the girl was Ann
|elt, and she had, for some time past, re-
celved the addresses of young German,
whose name we could not learn. A short
tune since she went on pleasure excur-
sion with him, and in the course of the
day an alteration arouse between them.
which resulted in a decided quarrel, and
they parted in anger. Shortly after this,
she was heard to declare, that if he did not
return to her within a certain time, she
would make away with herself. A few
days after this, she went to the drug store
OF the late Mr., lmmcndocrlcr, in Race be-
low Fourth st. and procured phial of
laudanum, and from thence to Mr. Stuck
ert's store, in Fifth below Race ST., where
she procured another. The contents Of
these phials, which were fully equal to
three ounces, she poured intoa pint bowl,
and having drank it, wrapped up the bot
ties i'll quilt, which she put into cor
ncr, and also hid the bowl behind IA trunk.
This took place about nine o'clock, and
about an hour after, her groans attracted
the attention of the family, who, on has
tcnlng to the room, found her in terrible
state. Medical III was instantly called
III, the stomach pump rcsortcd to, but all
without avail, and the victim of disappoint-
ed allcC ton died about two o'clock in the
morning. The man, the cause of her death,
was present at the holding of the inquest,
and seemed in much ailliction at the I'M
happy ruin which his anger had caused.
The young lady was an adopted child of
Mr. |clt, was very handsome, of modest
and uSassuming dcmcanor, beloved and
respected by all who knew her, and had

GREAT BATTLE IN THE INDIAN
rnI'NrnN

COUNTRY.
Large numbers Of Indians, negroes
and monsrels from Florida have been
placed upon the borders of Arkansas md
Missouri. BY a gentleman direct from
Fort Leavenwcrth we learn that some
900 negroes from Florida and runsways
| from the Choctaws and Cherokees and
from the whites, united with few Inti.
ans; and perhaps few ~ hite men, have
been gradually associated in the fast
nesse, west of Arkansas. Not long
since they marched high up Red River
and encamped for the purpose Of hunt
ing buffalo. They built very tolera.
BILE fort with logs, surrounded with a
ditch, toprotect themselves against all
dangers. They caught but few buffalo,
and therefore 10 supply their wants in
vaded the possessions of the Choct,ws
and carried off cattle, poultry, grain,
sc. The Choctaws followed, but find
ing their numbers aud Notifications an
ovcrmatch, they retired and sent to Fort
Gibson for tho U. S. Dragons. Capt.
Moore OF Company d. was sent to cap
ture them with three companies of Ora
goons, but after arriving upon the Red
River he found their entertainments too
strong and their number too great to
venture AN attack. lie accordingly sem,
to Fort Towson, and was reinforced with
fine company Of infantry and cou-
pie OF pieces of cannon.
The cannon were shortly brought 70
bear upon the works and soon made the
splinters fly and the logs move SO queer
/A that the refugees at a signal rushed
outside Of their Notifications and began
10 form upon the prairie in front of their
works. Ere thek fullk succeededin doing
SO, Captain Moore and his gallant dra-
goons routed them in ali dire etions, and
after putting large numbers to tho sword,
succeeded in Capturing the mholc holly,
The conduct of the Dragons is repre-
'ented as worthy Of all commentator
as regards both skill and bravery. The
bravery and numbers Of the refugees
availed absolutely nothing against the
irresistible charge Of the mounted dra
goons.
This decisive blow will give security
to that exposed portion Of our frontier,
and convince the refugee negroes and
Indians that our dragons may not be
triiled with. The loss Of the Dragons
was unknown to our informant, he said
an express brought the news to the Fort.

A CHAPTER ON UMBRELLAS.

Umbrellas are a peculiar kind of pro-
pcrtv. They are like none other, They
are not bequeoihabic (if we may be allow
TO coin word to express our mcaning.)
They are suigenrris. They certainly
are not real estate, for it is manifest to
every one thai they are movable. They
cannot be called personal estate, for so
uncertain is their tenure that ten to one
what youpossess one dBy is in some one
clsc's possession the next, more especially
if a shower has interviewed between the
two days. To-day an umbrella is yours,
tomorrow it is another's, not by legal
purchase, but by the common law of IA
tons which gives every one prescriptivc
right to every umbrella he can lay his
hands on. 1t is every body's property,
it is nobody's properly, it is no property
at ALL IS an umbrella. Twas mine
It's his, and always has been, and cvcr
will be, slave to--as many as can get pos
session of it. 1t is a kind of floating
capital from which every one feels that he
has right to receive dividend in the
shape of service rendered, or rather pro-
lection afforded, when the skies lower.
But if umbrellas are such an anomalous
kind of property, how does it happen
that they are ever to be found in the pos
session OF any one? But the fact is, they
are manufactured, and there are people
who bny them, and imagine that once in
, their possession they are their own pro-
perty. Delusivc hope! One might as
= well bny square yard or two of wind
, with the expectation Of transmitting il
D down to posterlty as an umbrella. Ii
f takes to itself wings and flies away. Sup.
| pose for momrnt that you are SO disin.

Information has been received at the
Department of War from the interchangeable
Col. WORTH, commanding the Army III
Florida, Of a very favorable character
1t appears that, by means of Co-a-coo-
che, wild Cat,) celebrated chief, and
for some time prisoner of war at Tampa
Bay, sixty of his uncapturcd band were
approaching that place the goth ult.
(July,) to be chi grated with their Chief,
and it was known that the remainder
were gathering to follow a break had
a,,so been made into Sam Joncs's band.
Ncntccn of whom were rcccivedat Tam
pa the 18th. Besides the parties which
secured the borders of the Ochlawaha, the
Withlat oochc and the smaller streams
which empty into the Cult, about the be-
ginning of July, and which destroyed ma
ny plantations of corn and villages, and
made some prisoners, other dctachmcnts
have since been put i'll motion, and made
to penetrate the most secret haunls of the
Indians with equal good effect. Again,
an important operation commenced about
the 18Th of July, against Sam Jones in the
evergladcs-onc detachment of troops
moving from the side of the Atlantic and
another from the wcst-rcsults yet I'M
known,
Col. Worth is sanguinc that, in a few
months, with the means givcnby the De
partmcnt of War and expected, he will be
able to finish the long protractcd contest.
Every thing, no doubt, may be expected
from him which skill, valor, and perse-
verance can accomplish.-.Nat. Lp.
