selves with an excursion on the sea, at
Scarborough, in small boat about thir-
teen feet long, having with them only one
oar and small sail. The little fellows
sculled themselves out to distance of a
few miles from land, when, thinking they
preceived some other boys coming ont
in boat to fetch them back again, they
hoisted their small sail, and, the wind
blowing out from shore, the boar wos un-
foFiunatly carried out further distance
TO sea. To theiI inexpressble grief, the
land at length entirely disappeared, and
afler making several fruiiIess attempts to
regain the shore, darkness put stop 10
all further endeavors, and a strong gale Of
wind forced them TO still greater distance
intOthe ocean. When the morning re.
turned, nota spock Of land ceuld be dis.

situation Of the three boys now became
dTeadfully distressing, not one of them
knowing how to make land, and not sin

Davis, fell sick, and continued in that

When these measures are presented to the

Oy the constitution, the tug Of war will COM
mence in the Legislature; and, for the first time
for years, the people will have AN opportunity Of
seeing what the principles of whiggery really are
in practice, and a fai comparison can be made
between the doctrines Of the two parties, fOuch-
ing the great ntersstsof equal rights and eonsti-
Iutioual government.
We shall have good reporters, and use what
industry we are capable of employing on our pa
per, to give correct and extensive view of all
their doing: and the first curious item will be
law reducing the salaries Of all the officers in the
State, as promised to the people. The next will
be, to raise the wages oflabor-increase the price
of wheat and pork-intrOduce the negroes fresh
from Kentucky into our courts as witnesses, and
into oureommOn schools but not into our Colleges
where Bankers children congregate. All these
hard cider and coon skin movements will be le-
