A VERY GOOD oNE.-We are informed
that when the Acting President Tyler was
on his recent Northern tour, application
was made to the managers of one of the
Railroads, to provide a special train to
convey the president and his suit. This
was refused, on the ground that it would
be attended with great Inconvenience and
danger to the regular trains, and that 1t
was against the rules of the road. In re-
ply to this, the applicant in behalf of Tyler
stated that special trains had sometimes
been furnished on the road-and he in
stanced the accommodation Of this sort,
furnished to convey the remains of Presl-
dent Harrison. The superintendent in
stantly replied, that if they would bring on
the Remains of President Tyler, special
train should be forthwith provided.-Bos-

We met with pleasing incident a few
days ago on board the steamer Burlington
on Lake Champlain. Being struck with
the remarkable beauty of shawl pattern
worn by lady passenger, we were express
sing our admiration of the same, when we
were agreeably surprised to learn that it
was of American manufacture, and graced
the shoulders of a lady of Boston lately
married, and then upon her bridal tour
1t was plaid pattern, lately introduced
from Europe-the originals of which arc
sold from to Z dollars, whilst these Who'll
ly of wool raised in Vermont and manufac-
tured at Andover in Massachusetts, are of
fine stock and more brilliant dye-in ev-
cry way superior to the English-afforded
at less than one half the price. We were
DESTROYS to form an acquaintance with a
party so thoroughly American in feeling
as evinced by wearing garments wholly of
American growth, and manufacture. The
happy bridegroom showed his wedding suit
of American manufactured at Southbridge
Massachusetts, Nothing we have ever
seen of foreign manufacture could compare
with it, either in dyeing OF dressing. We
were much edited in learning that there
was such a state of advancement in home
manufacture; and greatly gratified at such
an exhibition of American feeling as bri-
dal party decked out in home spun and
and home made that will not suffer in
comparison with the finest exhibitions of
skill in manufacture with an European IA
brio. We doubt not family connexion so
happily commenced in patriotic spirit,
will be graced throughout life by domestic
contentment, happiness and prosperity; and
we wish all our countrwomen were such
Americans as the bridal party whose ac-
quaintance we had the pleasure of making.

GOODNESS IN TINE OF DANGER.

The secondLieutenant Of the Lawrence,
standing by Perry, was struck in the breast
by chain shot. which, having passed thro'
the bulwark, was so far spent Il. TO have no
other effect than TO knock him down. The
shot lodged in the bosom of his waistcoat.
He fell, stunned by the violence of the
blow. Perry approaching him, and perceiv-
ing no marks of n wound, observed that nc
thought he could not be hurt. Upon this
the lieutenant having revived, pulled the
shot out of his bosom, and exclaimed. mo
sir, but this is my shot, thrust it, with sang
froid into his pocket.

The sloop was then hauled up to the brig
and 1t Preble. as he had been appointed,
jumped on board with number of men,
who had their various duties assigned them
while some slipped the cables, others
made sail, &c. Preble, himself.wIth few
followers, entered the cabin, where the Off
GERS were Just changing their dress, for the
purpose of going on shore. They made
some attempts 10 get their arms for defence
but were soon subdued. When they were
coming out of the harbor, the fort fired up
on thin, but Capt. Little Judged 1t best
not TO return the fire; he kept steadily on
his course. and when out of reach of their
shot, triumphantly let off thirteen sky rock
els! In the same cruise he took two oth-
er vessels, one of which was schooner of
eight guns, which he had driven ashore. -
He manned his boats, went on shore, made
the crew prisoners, and got off the schoon-
er; with his four prizes he returned toRos-
ton. The five vessels entered the harbor
together in fine style,wilh Il leading breeze;
and gallant show they made.

looked silently around 10 Perry, and then
stepped into their places. When he looked
at the poor fellows who lay wounded and
weltering on the deck, he always found
their faces turned towards him. and their
eyes fixed on his countenance. 1t is i'm

speaks volumes in praise of the heroism of

CAPTAIN GEORGE LITTLE.


Among the vessels which were built by
the State of Massachusetts, during The war
of the Revolution was the sloop Winthrop.
She was built in the then District of Maine
and for the express purpose Of protecting
our cOasting trade, (which had suffered much
by the captures, &c. of the enemy. She
mounted thirteen guns,and was command
ed BY Capt George Little, of Mansfield.
who had been the first Lieutenant of the
ship Protector, John Foster Williams, Esq.
commander, and who, by our quasi war
with France, in 179s. commanded the frig-
ale Boston. HIS first lieutenant, IN the
Winthrop. was Edward Preble, Of Portland
who also had been an officer on board the
Protector, and who was afterwards Com
modore Preble. The Winthrop was very
, fortunate vessel, and more than answered
the expectations of those vino built her.
She protected the coastIng trade, made
many prizes, and covered herself with glo-
nv. Soon after sailing ON her first cruise,
she fell in with two ships which made a
: formidable appearance, but boldly running
down upon them. she captured them both.
They proved 10 be two stout British letters
of marque. and she immediately returned
with them 10 Boston.
She made number of prizes afterwards
and recaptured some American vessels. In
one of her cruises, she re-captured a sloop,
belonging to the late William Gray, Esq.
which had been taken by the British brig
Merriam. of equal or superior force TO the
Winihrop,and with prize-master and crew
on board was ordered for Penobscot. 10
which place the Merriam herself had gone.
Captain Little Immediately resolved upon
the daring plan of eating her out. Dis
guising his vessel so as 10 give her as much
as possible the appearance of the prize sloop
he entered the harbor of Penobscot, in the
evening; as he passed the for',he was hall
ed. and asked what sloop that was-he an
swered, the Meriam's prize 1t is said
that the people in the fort had some suspi-
cions of him but they suffered him to pass.
He then ran up towards the brig,and as he
approached her, was again hailed,and gave
the same answer. Take care.' said they
on board the Merriam, you'll run foul of

ashore on a reef,and lost his cables and an

terrified with the destruction and death all
around him, he persisted, till cannon ball
came and took off both the hind legs of the
goat; when, seeing her disabled, he jumped
astride her, crying, Snow Eve caught you
AMERICAN NAVY.
The Barbary States had entertained the
most contemptuous idea of our naval power
and they used sneeringIy to say, show us
one of your 74's, and then we will believe
that the English permit you to build them.'
Of course, meyer were men more utterly as
tonIshed Than they were when they behed
large squadron from t United States ri
ding IN the port of AIgiers, Tunis,a and Trip
oil; and that too, Immediately after war
with Great Britain, which they imagined
would entirely crush the naval power OF A
merica. Perhaps the English encouraged
such ideas; for they were afterwards re
preached with having deceived them, and
led them INTO war with the United States.
One of the Dey's officers is said TO have adj
dressed the British Consul at 'lgiers, rs fol-
lows: 'f Gil told us you should destroy the
American navy in six months; and now they
make war upon Us with two OF your own
vessels, which they have taken from you.'
PERRY AND HIS OFFICERS INsENsIBLE To
DANGER.
During the battle of Erie, the Lawrence
which Commodore Perry was on board of,
was so shattered as TO be entirely unman>
ageable, and only nine of her large crew
remained. In this dilemma Perry resolved
10 hoist the American flag on board more
fortunate vessel. For this purpose he en-
tered an open boat 10 pass over To the ship
Niagara; and though broadsides were lev
elled al him,and showers of musketry from
three of the enemy's ships he remained
standing in the stern of the boat, until alb
soluiely pulled down by the crew The
Americans watched him with breathless
anxiety, as he passed through this scene of
peril. and with transport of joy they saw
his flag hoisicd at the mast head of the Nj
agara. Soon after he entered that ship, a
captain of one of the guns, having had all
his men shot down, approached him, and
laying his hand upon his shoulder, exclaIm.
ed, For Gods sake, sir, give me some
morep When all sense of personal dam
ger was thus swallowed up in eagerness for
victory, is it not surprising that Commo-
dore Perry was able 10 write his striking
laconic letter: "Dear Sir-We have met
the enemy, aud they are ours"
