UGLY QUESTIONS. The Seminole Chief,
Wild Cat, at the instance Of the Secretary
of War, has agreed to use his influence to
enforce the regulations fer preventing the in
PRODUCTION of whiskoy among the Indians, but
has at the same time forwarded n few pun
gent questions to the honorable Gecrotary,by
way Of acknowledging tie receipt of MS reg
ulations.
A few years since he visited Washington,
and was convinced by "occular demonstra-
ton" that it was fashionable among the ''chicls
head-men and people" OF the United States
to take a little Of the " creature" for thc love
they bore it, and he wishes to know from the
Secretary whether such is still the case
whether he himself takes little" OCCASION
ally, and whether the other "big men" are
fond OF " a horn," and whether it is worse for
an Indian to drink than it is for white
man?

NoNsUIrING A CREDITOR. There was a
certain lawyer on the Cape long time ago,
the only one in those diggins, then, and Tor
aught know, at the present. lie was a man
well to do in the world, and what was some
what surprising in a limb of the law, averse to
encouraging litigation. 49,.
One day client came to him in violent
rage Look a-here, Squire" said he, " that
ERE blasted shoemaker down to Pigeon Cove
has sued me for the money for pair OF boots
l owed him."
"Did the boots suit you?"
"Oh yes I've got em on-fust rate
boots"
{" Fair price ?"
ooh yes"
g" Then you owe him the money honest
Typ"
Course
"Well, why don't you pay him?"
Why? cause the blasted snob went and
sued me, and want to keep him out of the
money if kin"
1T will cost you something"
81 don't keer cuss for that. How much
money do you want to begin with
"Oh, ten dollars will do"
els that all? Well, here's an X. so go
ahead" and the client went cut very we'll sat
ished with the beginning.
Our lawyer next called on the shoemaker
and asked him what ne meantby commencing
legal proceedings against Nj.
" Why" said he, Il kept on sendin' to
him for the money till got tired. know,d
he was able to pay-and l was 'termined to
make him. That's the long and short OF
it,"
"Wen," said the lawyer, he's always been
a good customer to you, and think you act
ed too hastily. There's trife to pay Oh ac,
count of your proceeding-but think you'd
better take this five dollars and call ii all
square" :,
;" Certain, Squire, Ii You cay so-and darnd
glad to get it," was tue answor.
So the lawyer lorked over one and kept
the other. In few days his client came
along and asked hn how he got on with his
case.
"Rapidly /" said the lawyer, "we've "o,s-
suited him hell never trouble you"
"Jcrlsalem that's greati"' cried the ell

INTREPID CONDUCT OF LITTLE Girl.
On Monday afternoon, as the children of
Col Thompson and Capt. Alden Clifford were
playing on the banks Of the canal in Woburn
Centre, little daughter of Col. T six years
old, fell into the canal, when Isabella, the
daughter of Capt. Clifford, immediately jump
ed in to save her little playmate. She seized
her, but at the moment both got into deeper
water, and their situation became extremely
perious, yet the courageous Isabella strove
vigorously to keep her companions head
above the water. Both would probably have
been drowned had not the outcries of Capt.
Giford's son George, 6 years of age, brought
to their assistance Mr.. Atherton, who was
working in a shop not far distant. The boy
was shouting to his sister to save her compan-
ion. Both children were nearly exhausted
when taken out, and Isabella was nearly

HEAVY BELL.-The West Troy Advocate
says, that during the past week, Mr. Andrew
Meneely of this village disposed of large
and splendid Alarm Bell, weighing near o,
600 lbs. This, we believe, is the largest bell

mammoth ringer while suspended at the man

sired, and for beauty Of finish could not
be surpassed-in fact, it appeared to have
