CaPt-They are of Norway, sir.
Hamlet.-How purposed, sir, pray you?
Capt.-Against some part of Poland.
Ham.-Goes it againstihe main of Poland
sir, or for some frontier?
Capt.--Truly to speak, sir, and with no
addition, we go 10 gain a little patch of

LIFE OF HENRY CLAY.-Ths N. Y. Cor
respondent of the Cincinnati Gazette, in a re-
cent letter, gives ths following interesting no
lished, from which Rev. CALVIN COTTON is pre-
pairing a Memoir OF Mr.. CLAY. The work will be
Hooked for with great interest:
sMr. Cotton has passed the winter with Mr.
Clay, and obtained all the documents necessary
for u complete life, while no man is more able
to put them into shape and order than he. AID
ded TO this, Mr.. Clay has given up all the pa
pers relative to the great 'tbargain and sales
question. They alone form q hundred pages
of notes, proving the statements made in the
text.
These documents, Mr.. Cotton tells me, maxi
developments that are perfectly astounding, and
go TO show that all the bargaining was on the
side of Jackson and his friends. II is proved by
them that Buchanan came to Mr.. Clay from Gen
Jackson with a direct offer, and that Houston al
so went TO Hoane with another direct offer. The
snarl into which it gets Buchanan, Jackson, Ea-
ton, &c is perfectly iaughable. Jackson, in
his after attempts to get out of the dilemma,
when he found that Clay Nas too noble TO be
bought, annihilates Buchanan, and Buchanan in
endeavoring to throw the burden from his shout
der drives the General TO the wall, while Gen.
Eaton eats them both up. The disclosures ex-
hibit the jackson men of that period, who sur
rounded their lavorile candidate, in a most lu-
dicrous light, while il fastens a blot on Buchan-
ans forehead he will find it impossible to wipe
out. Hitherto Mr.. Cay has refrained from ma
King these disclosures out of regard for Buchan-
an. But now as his life is to be written for pos
terity, and he his to take his true position in the
cons teIlation OF great and good men, and his
own life Is drawing to a close, The call for every
thing that is needed to clear his character from
the aspersions made against it, is too loud and
imperious TO be disregsrded. His very lorbear-
ance shows how well his enemies know him.
They felt they could trust to his magnauimity
while they allowed q charge to rest against him
they could at any time destroy"

REreLUrloN ANEcDorE.-At a late meeting oil
the Maryland Historical Soeieiv, says the Balti
more American, a communication from James
Howard, Esq was read, conveying the follow
ing historical anecdote relative to the character
Of Washington:
s'Near the close of the year1776, on a stormy
evening of a wintry day, an assemblage OF Brit
ish officers had collected in II coffee room in the
city OF New York, of which General Howe then
had possession. Among other topics OF cpnver
salion, the name oil Washington was introduced
His character and qualifications as q military
man were freely and fully discussed. and vari-
Gus opinions expressed-some questioning and
others admitting his superior abilities as a Gen
eral. among the officers present was Sir Will
lam Erskine. who, being appealed to for his
OPP inion, remarked,-"Ii General Washington
really possesses the military genius and talents
ascribed to him, it will not be long before we
hear OF him among the Hessians." At,the very
time This remark wus uttered, General Washing
ton had projected and was engaged in the exc
ecution of precisely such a movement, by his
memorab BILE attack and capture Of the Hessians
at Trenton and a few hours bore to the officers
engaged in the conversation intelligence of the
disaster and the verificatiOn of the shrewd Frs

the perusal of the following capital yarn:
A WRESTLING YANKEE.--Some years
since a Yankee from the land of "notions''
travelling westward found himself minus of
cash, after his arrival at the 9ourishing vii
lage of Painsville, Ohio. But Yankees are
proverbiaI for tact, and can turn their wits
many ways, to supply the needful. So our
Yankee traveller, being keen at whisling,
perambulated the village, with his hands in
his pockets, whistling a variety OF national
airs, much to the amusement of all Seeing
that his employ took with the multitude,
he set himself up as teacher of the
science of Whistling, and reasoned very
gravely, that as multitudes would whistle, it
would be we'll for them 10 learn the science,
rightly that what ought to be done at all,
should be done we'll, i. e. upon scientific
principles. He believed that there were far
more persons who could learn this science
than was generally supposed-that there was
no reason why the female sex, with acknowl-
edged better voices than males, should be
denied the privilege Of whistling! and dis
canted largely upon the advantage TO be de.
rived from a thorough knowledge of the
science. In short a school was started a
once, and many a young limb of the law
medical students and clerks, with their la
dies was subscribers. The price was fixed a
fifty cents per>couple, and always paid in ad
vance, by which our Yankee friend wei
spliced his pockets.
The evening for the first lesson arrived
and with it a goodly number of gents and la
dies, at a hotel, waiting the promised instruc
ton.
All were standing on the floor. on the tip
toe of expectation, when our Yankee CAV

"PREPARR TO PUcKERi" All anticipate

roar of laughter shook the house TO is fcur

1t is unnecessary 10 say that the next da
