prevent babies from crying--and dogs

a child is disposed to quarrel-to rush to

SuBLrME.--A preacher who is somewhat given
10 big ideas, and who was spending some time in
Howard county, speaking Of young lady he had
been introduced to there said: ''she is woman
of tremendous intellect, gi gan'tic mind. She
draws from the piano, tones that rival the soft
oreahngs Of the Eolian harp, or vie with the
sweet sounds that float from the choral harps Of
heaven. She walks through geometry, stalks
through trigonometry, and takes comic sections by
storm. She knows all that the history Of ru.
ined confederation Of words can tell, or that
philosophy can dvuge. | repeat it, she is a
woman Of tire mendous intellect, 81 gan.tic
mind" W-he.w. P.r.o.digi.o us. Give US

DFNone of your sport, Mr.. Organ. 1t
is true, every word of it. Such girls are
as plenty here as stolen items in your pa
per. If. you want such woman for a
wife, just say SO, give US power of attorney,
and we will close the bargain before your
organ can grind out tune.

DPCol. r. M. JOHNSON visited Philadel-
phia on the 10th inst, where he was warm
ly received by his friends. The North A
merican says: "He was surrounded by so
many jealous friends tina, he was unable to
move, and one, kinder than all, lightned
the Colonel's pocket of $50 of superfous
cash. which this consideraic person no
doubt conceived could be no manner Of
use to an old soldier, in this wicked city,
but would rather lead him into temptation.
This is another lesson to the redoubted Co.
lionel to be chary of his friends. He has
an additional experience in his pocket, and
he has had many IN his political prospects,
that the 'unkindcst cut Of alr come from
those whom we had imagined our fastest
friends"

A FAIR PROPOSITION.

We have have already stated that Mr.. Clay,
on his recent visit to Indiana, was met by COM
nittee Of Abolitonsts, who presented petition
him, asking the liberation of his slaves. Mr..
Mendenhal was the organ OF the committee,
md the petition bore the MINES OF Henry Hoo.
yer, Dr. BunneIl. Richard Jobes, and other
prominent Loco Focos-of many negroes, and
many females. Mr.. Clay's reply 10 it was
prompt-severe, yet courteous-snd produced an
fleet which could have been little expected by
hose who were concerned in getting itup. At
the conclusion OF his remarks, he made this propo.
sition TO Nh. Mendenhal, and through him 10
h associates. He had about fifty slaves, Of the
aggregate value Of $4,000. If Mr.. Mendenhall
and those who signed the petition would raise
he sum Of Sis 900 or secure its payment for
the benefit Of his slaves, should he emancipate
them, he would then give an answer to the peti
ton. Mr.. Clay did not ask the money for him.

him. This is not the way in which these lana.
