The American Captain and the British
AdmirGl.-When, during the late war, Ad-
miral Warren wns lyingin the Chesapeake,
Captain Smith was sent by Commodore
Stewart, then at Norfolk, To negotiate an
exchange Of prisoners. The news had
just arrived Of tho capture oftho Java, and
the Admiral, speaking Of that event, ask.
ed Captain Smith how il happened that
our frigaies were SO successful in taking
theirs Captain Smith answered that no
knew no reason for il, unless that we fought
better. No." said the Admiral, e that
cannot be but the reason is, that two.ihirds
of your crews are British seamen.n
" Then" replied Captain Smith, "the
other third being Americans makes tho
whole difference" The Admiral attempt.
ed no further explanation or argument on
the knotty subject.

OF the present year. With regard 10 the
prospects Of the Cotton crop of the curren,

with any degree Of certainty as TO lis pro.
liable yield one thing, however, Is cor.
tain, the plant has been seriously affected,
FIRST by an unusually backward spring, and
secondly by the heavy rains duriag tho
months Of July and August, which have
prevailed agreatcror less extent through.
OUT the cotton region and the crop is con
sequenlly some weeks behind that Of tho
previous years, which has already caused
much speculation relative to the growth
OF is43, some placing il as low as ,509,
200, while others estimated il from ,600,-
900. II must be borne in mind, however,
that these estimates are based upon tho
yicIssliudcs the plant has to undergo dur

on the period when fros, is experienced

Commodore 1uedtr.-We remember
well, hearing this venerable man relate
his receiving his frs, commission, in our
navy. He was ut Marblchead, soon after
his return from England, and at the time
Washington was at Cambridge. Tucker,
then young man, was cutting wood be.
fore his mothers door, when n gai,y dress.
ed officer rode down the street. Ii was IN
the dark of evening, and the officer, sec.
ing Tucker thus employed, rode up to him
and asked him if he could inform him
where the honorable Samuel Tucker re-.
sided. Tucker, astonished, answered him
in the negative, saying there is 10 such
man resides here there is no other Sam
Tucker in this town bot myself. Imme.
dintely on hearing this, the officer raised
bis beaver, and bowling low, presented him
his commission in the navy.

One of those singular cases OF individual
history which sometimes astonish The mass,
by their singulariIy and eccenilicity, was
related to US the other day by friend OF
ours, in whom We have the most implicit
confidence. The facts are as follows, some
seven years ago gentleman died IN Geor.
gia, leaving son about Ia years old ana
property TO the amount of about S2o,ooo'
The executor who had been particular
friend of the old man was about TO place
the boy at school, with the intention OF CIV
ing him every opportunity of enjoying The
benefits of liberal education, when the
boy suddenly disappeared, leaving It cer-
tain that he had gone OF, bu, in what direc-
ton, why or for what purpose was IN
known. The Guardian, wrote in every
direction, begging his acquaintance to
make inquiries and have look out for
him. But no trace of him whatever could
be discovered. Seven years passed away
and his fate still remained mystery to
his friends. A short time since, however,
his Guardian heard from some person that
he was seen within some short distance
of Mobile in this State. Without the
slightest delay, he started in pursuit OF the
Young man, and found him in the neigh.
borhood of the place where he had been
seen. lie was engaged there in cutting
and hauling wood, had been engaged at
that business for several years, and had
been q steamboat hand on the iiyer be-
tween here and Mobile for three years.
Has Guardian found him with face burnt
and tanned with exposure 10 the sun and
weather, and his hands hard from the el-
fects OF labor.
His Guardian told him that he must
come home and take his property, but he
could not leave then, as the man for whom
he had been working owed him fly dol.
lars. He was at last however persuaded
to settle with his employer, by taking his
note. When questioned as TO bis reasons
for leaving home seven years before, he
said he did not like TO 60 TO school. 80
during all that time he worked hard, away
from home and among strangers, rather
than go back, lest he should be sent TO
school He knew, too that he was worth

Of il. During his residence IN the neigh
borhood of Mobile, he gained the reputa-
lion of strictly sober, hard working, pru-
dent and economical young man. Last
week he passed through this place on his
return to Georgia, where a snug property,
which has been accommodating under the
careful management Of his honest and
faithful Guardian awaits him. Our read
ers may depend upon the truth Of what
