Sir n. L'Estrange relates that Ben Johnson
was once at tavern, when Bishop Corbet (but
not then a Bishop came into the next ROOM
Ben called for quart Of raw wine, (sack) and
gave it to The tapster, said
''Sirrah, carry this to the gentleman in the
next chamber and tell him sack riff: myser

The tapster did so.
Friend" said DR.. Corbet, Il thank him for
his love; bu, prithee tell him for me he is mista
ken, for sack rIfices always burnt
This anecdo,e, illustrative Of the Bishops love
Of good liquor in general, and burnt sack in par
ticuar, is confirmed by Aubrey, who adds-"H Is
chaplain, Dr. Lushing ton, who was a very learn
ed und ingenious man; and they loved one anoth

of his wine cellar, and he and his chaplain woud

the Bishop would lay down his Episcopal ha,

LOCO FoCo COW-HEEL.

There is an anecdote of Sancho Pane, which
very finely illustrates The marvellous difference
between The profession Of the locofoco party and
their performances.
Sancho and the Knight one day stopped at
Inn about dinner time. well good man Of the
house, says Sancho, what have you got to day."
Got; replied The inn keeper with big look
EVERY thing under The sun, the beasts of tho
field, the fowls OF the air, the fish OF the sea- and
the game Of the forest. Ny house always has
the best Of every thing
Alb said Sancho licking his chops .'you are
the man tor my money. GIVE US a good tat tur-
key, roasted very nice, and couple OF pounds of
sausages and the trimmings never eat much"
"Turkey" SAID the inn keeper that's the
very thing have not got. But there's every
thing else"
well, them replied Sancho, "roas, US cou,
pie OF pulIots-or say three; bu, besure they are
tender
"Pulietsr' returned the inn keeper IL had the
prettiest lot Of them yesterday you ever laid
your eyes on. But just as they were going 10
rosst, down came mons'rous henhawk and whlsk-
cd off every mothers chick"
'Wha, diabolical snap.dragon" exclaimed
Sancho. "Bu, think could do with nice little
roast pig, well stuffed
"Ptg!" said the inn keeper-"O yes, I've pien-
y Of pigs, bat they have all 60, their tails greas-
ed, and there's no catching of them"
Then I'll take some fried fish, said Sancho.
"Fish?' said the inn keeper, its rather too late,
for the ponds all dried up and the fish have
emigrated towards the coast.--Thare is no fish
within a hundred leagues
odds fish" exclaimed the impatient Sancho,
'then tell me tho name Of some thing you have
got"
"Got-got,'' said the inn keeper scratching
his heal, "rve got-some excellent cor heel''
Just so with the locoioco leaders; they promise
the fnest fare in the world but give the sor
REST COW heel that was ever dashed. They gave
US jackson and Van Buren, governments, that
in eiover.-And what did these governments
turn out in the end' Excellent COW heel"
Yes-a sor, Of COW heel that upset the national
pail, and Sc, the whole country "crying for split
milk
They promised us better currency reform
and nobody knows how many other fine things,
but they all turned out to be pigs with slippery
tails That could not be caught.
They offered splendid bill OF fare at tho
commencement Nobody could count The pigs,
pullets and turkeys that were TO como out of the
political pot But when they had coddled their
mess and served it up, what did find in lt9
Cow heel for thousand pounds |, would hard>
Iy 90 down with onion.
They made prodigious promises about economy
and -oirenchmeni;' and TO save appearances they
actually did cut the pay of some hard working
servants of the people, bu, took very tender care
of their own peanut salaries. Your cow-heel
politicians never ",oe the mark"

following eloquent tribute to the character of the
Wing candidate, Mr.. Clay. Ii should silence for
ever, the mounting, small beer politicians, who
delight to talk of Mr. Ciay's "bargain and in

From his ca fest political career he had been
associated with Mr.. Clay, from the same State l.,
and for many years the representative OF the ad-
Joining district. For the last eighteen years they
have both been conspicuous IN opposite ranks
1t has for that length of time been the interest of
one to defeat the other. But under no circum-
stances could he ever be induced TO utter a sem
tence o the detriment Of Mr.. G. as q citizen, a
gentleman, man of honor, of talents and of in
tegrty. All his opposition TO him is POLITICAL
IS man, he esteemed him, as an old friend, he
loves him, and in his honor, he strongly confides.
If Mr.. Clay the subject of this sketch, JUS

his magnanimity and .fdelity.'
