low slaves 5000 more, with which he pur-
chased the freedom Of his wife and young

Here, by the aid of DR.. Caspar Morris,
and other benevolent gentlemen. about
$1,000 we're raised for him, and about
$500 more have been secured to him in

UNACCoUNTABLE TRICK WITH A BoT-

bottle was performed by Professor An
derson, before Queen Victoria. during
the festivities of Prince Abert's birth
day. 1t is called the 'ine adjustable bot.

On receiving the royal command to
perform it the Professor called for cham.

number of glasses, and asked Lord Port
man what he would drink. His Lord
ship replied, whiskey was poured out
Mr.. Anson preferred brandy, which he
got. Several demanded wine, which
passed freely; and one ofthe proprietor:
of the royal distiIlery, Mr.. Begg, think
mig to battle the Professor, asked him il
he could give him glass of his best
Lochanger whiskey. No sooner said
than done; and the Lochauger whiskey
became in great demand. A large num-
ber of additional glasses were distributed
and some called for Irish whiskey, num-
bers brandy--the highlanders patronzed
Mr.. Begg-when Lord John Russell, per
haps like Mr.. Begg, wishing to try the
wizards skill. asked for glass Of rum
which was Immediately supplied, and hi;
Lordship pronounced it excellent. The
London portion of the domestics and po
lice called for gin,which wasfreely poured
out Of this extraordinary bottle; and the
wizard was returning to his seat, wher
his royal HighnesS, anxious to test the
bottle-presuming, as he was returning
that it was eahausied-asked if more

brought to her Majesty and Prince Al

ferred, requested Mr.. Begg's and Loch
anger, which Immediately ran forth. and
her Majesty and the Prince tasting it, &C
knowledged its purity; and the wizard
gave the bottle to the Prince and asked
him to look if it was empty; it was. An

Texas AND SANTA FE.-- Victory or
Death.-The good citizens of Texas have
become quite agitated because the inha-
btants of Santa Fe are taking prelimin-
airy steps to organize a territorial govern
ment. At Austin, many were for march,
ing andputtug down the rebels, so they
are termed, by an armed force. Tho
Gazette of that place recommends its
readers to keep cool until the receipt OF
the Presidents Message, at all events
not to precipitate crisis. 1t goes for
Santa Fe, however, at all hazards. Ii says:
Rather than surrender to the usurpa.
tion of the general government one inch
of our bloodwon territory, let every hu
man habitaton in Santa Fe be levelet
to the earth, and US, if the necessity o
the case requires it, be buried beneatl

That will do for beginning. Texa.

will have about equal success in iniimi
dating the general government. He
