A YANKEE TRICK.-A Northern vessel came to
Wilmington, NC, with cargo Of rum, distilled,
as the dull awkward Captain alleged, in the United
States and, as he believed, in Georgia. His papers
appeared fair enough as far they went, but were
thought to be rather defective. The dates were
somewhat old. He had touched at Charleston-he
had assisted distressed vessel at sea--he had been
blown off the coast-and we know not what lame
and suspicious accounts he gave. II was suspected
he was smuggling from the West Indies, and very
bad a fatal circumstance it was His rum was
good-much too good to be made at home. Every
rubicund nose in Wilmington smelt; and every
palate tasted, and all said and swore il was prime
West India The vigilant Collector very properly
lbelIed both vessel and cargo. The whining Cap
tain requested that the rum might be sold, TO save
expense. while the trial was pending, which was
accordingly done 1t sold readily at ucton at
81 10 gallon, while DaTien and Newbern rum,
known as such, would have brought only 45 cents,
No sooner was the cargo sold, and the proceeds
fairly lodged in the bank Than Jonathan seemed to
come to his senses He was now wide awake He
could give clear account Of his voyage. He
proved beyond doubt that his rum was manniac-
tured at Darien Hrs vessel was released, and he
paeketed 65 cents more than the common profit

half-payful eountenance, beaming blue eye and
sunny locks, bearing in one hand small cup OF
china, and in the other wreath OF flowers. Feel
ing very natural curiosity to know what she could
do with these bright things in place that seemed
to partake so much of sadness, watched her light
