The colony Of Connecticut, it will be re.

held its rights under \ Patent till about lGC0.
From the best information, we learn that its
privileges were democratic for that age, and
perhaps, more than usually liberal and un-
tramelled. Having, however, lost its Pat
ent, and fearing lest the new king, Charles
H., might take advantage of this want of
formal government to exert arbitrary pow

Gen. Tom Thumb.

The following humorous account Of the
arrival and first levee of General Tom
Thumb in New Orleans we copy from the
Delta. The Lilliputian General seems to
have taken the citizens Of the Crescent CT
ty "rght along"
"Tom Thumb! odzooks my wide extended

Let Rome her Caesars and her Scipos show;
Her Messieurs France, let Holland her

Fielding'S Tragedy Of Tom Thumb.
The General has come. Nothing else is
talked of. Everybody is nobody with eve
rybody but the General. He is called a
dear by the women, a prodigy by the men,
and is looked upon as a spirit by the chill
dren. His public entrance into the city
was in his grand coach. The General, the
coach, the horses in miniature, and coach
man and footman to match-the whole
equipage-the tout enSemble-impresses
one with the conviction, his sense to the
contrary notwithstanding, that the whole is
magic formation, or that some distinguish
cd stranger from the land oft the Lilliputs, is
in our midst. Nothing can exceed the har.
mony presented throughout the Generals
establishments The pair of little Shet-
land ponies seem to have been made for the
grand, but dminutive, coach; the coach
was no doubt made for Tom, and nobody
else; and the coachnap and footman, in
blue and silver livery, with white tie wigs,
cooked hats and shorts, preserve the unities
of the picture. 1t attracted every one (:

He retired for short time. and next
made his appearance as a Highland Chief,
in philibeg kilt. plaid hose and all. He
handled the claymore with all the address
of a Rob Roy, sang
"Come, sit thee down, ma bonny, bonny

with tie taste of Dempster, and danced

Many delirate ladies', whom no one would

If any youtg lady should happen to blush,
she would be apt to look red in the face,

be sign Of something; if she dream of him
four times, or have the tooth-ache, it is ten
to one she will be long time getting either
of them out Of her head.
Many people will drink more liquor than
will be necessary to keep them sober, aud
take more medicine than viii be requisite 10
the enjoyment Of good health.
Dinners and entertainments will be given
to those who have enough at home, and the
poor will receive much advice gratis, legal
and medical excepted.
