SORREL SHEEP AND HORSES.

II our good-natnred readers laugh as heart
lily over the following story as we did,we shall
be abundantIy paid for its publication. 1t
seems, according to the correspondence OF
the Mobile Register, that a bill was before the
lower branch of the Alabama Legislature,
for the charter Of Botanical Medical Col
lege, at Wetumpka. The Register contin-
ues:
After Speaker Moore and others had made
able speeches in support Of the bill, Mr.. Nor
rissett, from Monroe, took the floor. You
know him. He is an odd genius, and withal
he has good hard horse sense, las his col
league, Mr.. How ard, calls it, and often
speaks to the point and with effect. With
an imperturable gravity, he addressed the
House in substance as follows: MIR. Speaker,
| cannot support the bill, unless | am assured
that distinguished acquaintance Of mine is
made one of the Professors. He is what that
College wishes to make for us-a root doc
tor, and will suit the place exactly. He be-
came doctor in two hours, and it only cost
500 to complete his education. He bought
a book, sir, and read the chapter on fevers,
and that was enough. He was sent for 10 see
n sick woman-a very sick woman. With
his book under his arm, off he went. Her
husband and their son John we're in the room
with the sick woman.-The doctor felt Of her
wrist and looked in her mouth, and then took
off his hat. Has you got addressing the
husband, "a sorreI sheep!' No, Inever heard
of such a thing in all my life We'll, there
is such things said the doctor very knowing
". Has you got. then, sorrel horse y
Yes said John. quickly, Il rode him 10 mill
TO day. We'll, he must be killed immedi-
ately,' said the doctor, and some soup must
be made and given to your wife.-Tbe poor
woman turned over in her bed, and John be-
gan to object; and the husband was brought
to stand. why, doctor, he is the only
horse we have got, and he is worth 800, and
will not some other soup do as well +? No,
the book says so. and there Is but two ques-
tions-will We kill your horse, or let your
wife die Nothing will save her but the soup
of sorel sheep or a sOrrel horse. II you
don't believe me will read il to you.' The
doctor took up the book turned to the chapter
on levers, and read of follows: Good for
fevers-sheep s0rrel or horse sorrel.' why,
DOCTOR exclaimed the husband, wife and son,
you are mistaken; that don't mean sorrei
sheep or a sorrel horse, but-'Weli, know
what am about interrupted the doctor,th
the way we doctors read II, and we under
stand it.'-Now said Mr.. NJ, with an earnest
ness and gravity that we're in striking con-
trast with the laughter of the House, unlesss
the Hon. Speaker and the friends Of the bill
will assure me that my sorrel doctor will be
one of the Professors must vote against the
bill. tits unnecessary to add. that after this
bloy. the bill never kicked. ] was effectually
killed.

GOOD MOVE.


We are happy to observe that the Laprai

applied TO the Provincial Parliament for al
extension of its charter from 81. Johns to the
Province line, at or near Missisque Bay,
distance of about &c miles-with a view &c

place; and should the charter be granted-ol
which there IS little doubt-we have strong
assurances that the stock will be promptly

IMPoRTATIONS INTO CANADA, &c

Among the laws enacted by the late Con-
gress was one allowing the benefit of draw.
back on foreign merchandise exported into
Mexico and the British North American Col
onies. Imports into Canada are to be made
from Plattsburg, Champlain, Burlington,
Sackets-Harbour, Ogdensburgh, Oswego,
Rochester. Buffalo, Eiie, Cleveland, San
dusky land Detroit. Into New Mexico, from
Vanburen, Ark, Fulton on the Red River,
and Independence IN Missouri. So far as
the British Provinces are concerned, this
law will operate favorably to counteract the
determinations by the British government in
favor of their navigation interest, which now
enjoys many advantages in the trade Of the
Canadas, Nova Scotia, &c. The law is
based on sound commercial policy.

The World.

Unthinking, idle, wild and young,
Laughed, and talked, and danced, and sung;
And proud ofhealth and freedom vain,
Dreamed not of sorrow, care or pain;
Concluding, in those hours of glee,
That all the world was made for me.
But when the days'of trial came,
When sickness shook this trembling frame
When folly's gay pursuits were DER,
And | could dance and sing no more,

Mr.. BANCROFT, it is said, like DR.. Frank
Inns father, ''blessed the whole barrel at
once" and got rid of ali applications for
place in bis departmentby ruse. He ordered
the servant to wait till great number had
come, and then. Instead of sending for the
applicants TO come into his room. one by one,
repaired himself to the ante-room, and in
formed the crowd altogether that he could do
nothing IN the way of making removals and
ppointments.rhat it was very delicate bust
uess-that politics constituted an exceeding
ly unpleasant and Improbable pursuit-and
he would most affectionately beg leave to
advise all of his democratic friends there

and following their own proper pursuits,
callings and professions, thank their stars
that they had something better TO do than to
fill poor clerkships.

TREAcHERY.-Senator Merrick, Of Mary
land, has won for himself as uneuviabIe a
name, almost, as John Tyler. When his
country needed his services most, he saw fit,
despite the expressed wishes and instructions
OF his own State, to 60 over TO the enemy on
the Texas question, and as soon as it was
known which side he was taking, the Wing
Senators, hitherto bis confidential friends,
arose silently in their places and left the Sen
ate chamber. This must have been severe
rebuke to The treachery with which he was
about TO visit them.
