Rather a curious commercial operation look
place here few days since. young gentleman
of opulent parentage took it into his head 1t was
proper he should drive business corresponding
with his credit fame of character and other dgnhed
qualifications. Accordingly, without consultation,
he rented additional store and made purchase
for cash. with indulgence of thirty days, to fill
it. The substantial name and standing of his
papa, was enough to endorse his credit,
even on presumptive anticipation of pro-
missing II at any time. Sc on the strength
of II our hero was countenanced. He OBJ
tanned the goods to considerable amount, on the
proposed terms, and had them placed in his store
The discovery, however, was eventually made thai
papa had never been made acquainted with the
grand cash speculation. When bills were rendered
no money was forthcoming The old gentleman
would not take the responsibilities, and our young
ambitious aspirant was under the necessity of re-
turning the merchandise to those from whom he
had obtained them.
Constable Clapp of Boston, came on here yester-
day, with requistion from the Governor of Mas

meanors in that State. They both had wives who
were sent home by some benevolent persons, who
raised subscription for that purpose.
