she was native Of New York, where her
friends, whom she said, were highly con-
nected, reside, and that about two years
ago, titled English gentleman (she re-
fused to tell his name, was introduced to
her family; he paid her great attention for
some time, and wanted her TO marry him
privately; this she at first refused to do,
telling him her father could give her a
princely dowry, and that she was willing
10 become his wife with the consent of her
parents. lie refused this, and continued
TO prosecute his addresses with such zeal
that she, in moment Of weakness, was
induced to elope with him; and in order to
prevent discovery, she put on male at
attire, and passed as his lordship's page!
lie brought her to Europe, and visited the
Eternal City" (Rome.) where they passed
some months, and from thence they trav-
elled through Germany, France and Spain,
and all the continental countries; at last
they came to London; where she DOTTED
her pages apparel, and was introduced in
to the first circles of society, where she
passed as the bride Of her Destroyer
They came 10 Dublin a short time since,

distressed state, so far as her mind was
concerned, but with toIcrably large purse

lordship was stopping at Kingstown, whith-

success. and on her return she was altact-
ed by number of girls, from whom she
was obliged 10 defend herself in the best
manner she could. She was willing to pay
any penalty that might be imposed On her
for the improper manner in which it was
stated she had conducted herself. The
magistrate said, her story, if true, was ve-
cry strange, and ordered her to enlerinto
her own security to keep the peace; which
being done, the fair but unfortunate daugh-
Ter of the land Of liberty was at once dis
charged.

New METHOD OF Book KEEPING.-Some time
since barber was brought before the Police
Court at Paris, charged with having customers
in his house after midnight. The examination
is thus reported:
Barber.-It is the fault of this person, Merlon,
who is in the court, as he has not time to be shay
ed till late at night.
President.-You ought not, at all events, to
disturb the public peace: there were cries issuing
from your house, as if you had been committing
murder.
Merlon.-He was shavng-that's almost the
same thing. Laughter.
The President-Was it you then, Meron,
who was crying out as it, you were being fayed!
Merlon-Yes, In fact he was faying me-[a
general laugh ]-he was cutting me horribly.
The Barber.-ltis is true, but | made mistake.
Merlm-Did you not mean to cut me!
The Barber.-I do not say that prolonged
laughter II certainly did not mean to cut him
SO deep. Loud and continued laughter
The President.-Didyou then cut him on pur-
pose!
The Barber.-Indeed did, in the spirit of my
order. You understand one does not like to be
below his business.
The President and Merlon together.-And
why!
The Barber.-The whole affair is this: NJ.
Merlon is not to be trusted, as he docs not pay
the ready money. He used to cheat nc in the
number of shaves for which he owed me: when
he had twelve he used TO say that he had only
six, so that lost both my razor, my soap, and my
time. At last devised mode of keeping a
reckoning not to be disputed.
The President.-How was that!
The Barber.-Every time shave him make
notch in his cheek general laughter +
when we count up look at his cheek-so many
notches, so, many shaves-[ renewed laughter +
but the other day the razor turned in my hand
l made the figure too large, and it was this that
made htm cry out and disturb the neighborhood.
Amidst general laughter the barber was con-
demned to pay the full penalty, and the President
advised him to renounce in future his new sys-
tenn Of keeping accounts!
