A VALUABLE DOCUMENT.
In the library of the Citv Hal, tbere

In the library of the City Hall, there i.
a large quarto volume containing the Dec.
laration of Independence executed in the
neatest style Of penmanship, appended tc
which Is an interesting manuscript (oi
which the following is true copy, J in
the hand writing Of Charles Carroll, Of
Carrollton. The book was presented a,
the suggestion of Rev. Stephen N. Row
an, the orator for the city on the occasion
| OF the death Of John Adams and Thomas
Jefferson, w no recommended in the course
OF his oration that "a copy of the DecIara-
ton OF Independence, elegantly engrossed
on parchment, be transmitted, ere it be
too late, to the venerable Carroll, its sole
surviving signer, TO be certified by him &
used by our Common Council, on every
successive celebration of the Fourth of
july The suggestion meeting the ap-
proval ofthe Mayor and Common Coun-
ell, DIR Rowan, III company with the Rev.
MIR Gibson,o of Baltimore, visited the vener-
able patriot, who received the proposition
with great warmth of feeling. When the
book was afterwards handed TO John @.
Adams, who was at that time President,
for his signature, he pointed out sngu-
lar coincidence. in the dates of the origi-
nal signature of Mr. Carroll 10 the Decla-
ration and his signature TO his certificate
of appreciation. He signed the original
on the I'd day of August, l776. and his
certificate ofapprobation on the I'd day of
August, 1926, exactly fifty years after
to day.
"Gra'efulto to Almighty God for the bles-
sings which, through Jesus Chris, our
Lord, he has conferred on my beloved
country in her emancipation, and upon
myself in permitting me under circum-
stances Of mercy TO live 10 the age ofeieh-
ty-nine years, and to survive the filieih
year of American Independence, and GER
tlfying by my present signature my ap-
probation of the Declaration of Indepen-
dence, adopted by Congress on the fourth
OF July, IN the year OF our Lord on thous-
and seven hundred and seventv-six, which
/ originally subscribed on the second dav
Of August ofthe same year, and of which
| am nnw the last surviving siguer, | do
hereby recommend TO the present and fu-
ture generations the principles of that i'm
portant document as the best earthly in
heritance their ancestors could bequeath
TO them; and pray that the civil and relig-
ious liberties they have secured to my
countrymen may be perpetuatedto remot-
est posterity, and extended 10 the whole
family of man. CHARLES CARROLL,
Of Carrolton.

AFFECTED DEAFNESS.

a stranger dismounted at the door OF
the ---- Hotel, aad gave his horse TO
the oficious waiter. The bar keeper open
ed the register to take his name.
You are right, said he, "a single room
would be mere agreeable, and he walked
into the upper room to which the crowd OF
boarders were passing. The bar keeper
ran after him, screaming in his ear
'What name did you say?'
Thank you, said he, i can find the
way, don't put yourself to any trouble
On his return TO the bar-room, a waiter
took up his saddle bags, and told the deaf
stranger he would show him his chamber.
My friend, who will spend the even
ing with me, prefers plain sherry said
he. You may send up bottle and few
cigars
Il did not, said the bar keeper, EXACTLY
understand your name.'
i think little would improve the
Wine was the answer. 'And now |
think of it, you may put the bottle in a
wine cooler His friend now joined him,
and they walked to his room together.-
The deaf lodger patronized the house TO
the extent of another bottle before he slept.
The waiter who brought it up, ventured
once more to enquire his name.
Nothing more,' said he, except slice
of ham, a pickle, and little bread and
cheese The next morning after break
fast when the strangers horse was at the
door. he asked for his bill. He was told
it was six dollars and three quarters.
You are very kind had expected to
pay you; but II this is your custom, to
charge nothing for the first visit, you shall
not lose by it--all my friends in Sponge
vile will certainly give you at least one
call hen they come into this city good
morning.
Il would thank you to pay your bill be-
fore you 60 screamed the bar keeper.
Il am obliged 10 you, said the deaf gen.
tleman, i can pu. them on and he took
up his saddle bags aud departed. As he
mounted, the by->tanders began 10 laugh
i,nmederately AT the awkward embarrass-
ment which afflicted the bar keeper, who
was in despair, while he bawled after the
delinquent, who continued bowing, and
repeating his assurances, that he would
certainly remember the accommodations
civility, and liberality Of the house, and
recommend it TO all his friends who might
pass through the city. The gentleman
who so well affected deafness won the wa
ger he mad staked on the success Of bis
scheme, and paid his bill the next time he
visited the city.

DEATH OF BURKE's ONLY SON.

DEATH OF BURKE's ONLY SON.
Burke's son, upon whom his father has
conferred something of his own celebrity,
heard his parents sobbing in another room
at the prospect of an event they knew to
he inevitable. He rose from his bed, join
ed his illustrious father and endeavored 10
engage him in cheerful conversation. -
Burke continued silent, choked with grief.
His son again made an effort to console
him. Il am under no terror he said; i
feel myself better, in spirits, and yet my
hear, flntters, know not why. Pray talk
to me, sir talk of religion, talk Of morali-
ty, talk if you will, of Indifferent subjects
Here noise attracted his notice, and he
exclaimed. Does it rain? No; it is the
rnstling Of the wind through the trees. -
The whistline Of the wind and the waving
Of the trees, brought Millions majestic
lines to his mind, and he repeated them
with uncommon grace aud effect
sHis praise. ye winds that from four quarters blow,
Breathe soft loud; and your tops, ye pines,
With every plant, in sign Of worship wave.'
A second time he took up the sublime
and melodious strains, accompanying the
action TO the word, waved his own hand
in token of worship, and sank into the
arms Of his father-a corpse! Not a SEN
sation told him that in an instant he would
stand in the presence Of the Creator, to
whom his body was bent, in homage, and
whose praises still resounded from his
lips Quarterly Revie,0.

YOUTH AND AGE.
Inc proudest poetry Of life

The proudest poetry of life
S-"Would were q Man =,
Inc golden years that lie between
Youth like dream, would span:
IT'S IN its thought-'tis in its heart
'ns even on its tongue;
But oh, the poetry Of age,
His-sswhen was youngw
mus, In the morn of life, our feet
Would distant pathways fnd;
The sun still face to face we meet
The shadows fall behindl
But when the morn Of life is DER,
And nature grows less kind;
Inc eIengthening shadow creeps before
The sunlight falls behind
With many murmur, slow and sad,
The stream of life flows on;
mat which we priced not when we had
Is doubtful priced when gone!
And many sad and solemn truth
Lies written on life's page;
Between the s.Poetry of Youthp,
And "Poetry Of Age!"
