There is in circulation rumor, which we hrIniy be-

character of our present Governor as true TO render
the resignation OF his office truly desirable we ieel 1t
our duty to say and could easily advance arguments
which would 60 prove that the reports IN crcula
ton have no foundaionn fact We do not allude TO any
pscuniary transactions but to one affecting the moral
character and rectude of the parties implicated We
respectfully call upon contemporaries III Columbia
to dsspate the dark nsnuaons which are so industr
ously promulgated"

A very able report, accompanied by bill,
has been introduced in the House of Repre-

Amistad case, which plainly sets forth the
hardship and injustice to which the owners
o! the Amistad were subjected by the partial
judicial Proceedings-biassed by the Abol-
ton excitement of the day--had in the case
OF the hmistad. OF course Congress has no
power to reverse the decision of the Courts /;
but where foreigners are grossly wronged bv
legal proceedings, as in this case, it may verv
properly indemnify them. The bill TO in.

Tue coBBLER And His SHOE.
cobblrr blythe and dcbonair,
His shop and song were all his care,
Had an old shoe one day TO mend,
Which bafied both his anvil and end,
j; was Of such a curious cast,
He couldn't fit it to his last;
Aud SO repeatedly he try'd,
Now turning this, then t'other side,
Aud always finding something wrong,
Fainter and i~;aser grew his song
At length quite mute the man became, NJ
Not knowing what, or whom TO blame,
A sullcn, look d about TO see
"Whatcvcr could the matter be ;"
Then try'd once more, but all in vain:
Twas just the same thing DER again.
The cobbler being thus perplcxt,
And at the shoe completely yext,
Took aim against the harmless wall,
And hurld the shoe and last and all.
But as he threw, without reflection,
He miss'd, Of course, the right direction,
And threw them, by mistake, alas /!
Directly through pane Of glass.
Awhile in angry mood he sat,
And by himself, exclaimed "Take that"
He then went on, TO pick them up,
Aud throw them by within the shop;
But in returning, as he drew
Near 10 the shop, his anger grew.
He told the shoe, as you're TO blanc,
You shall go back the way yon came
He threw, but mIss'd his aim again
The shoe went through another pane.
And further TO increase his ire,
He found he'd thrown it in the Are.
Reader in this you have view
What mischief blind rage may do.
