The New COSTUME IN OLD TIMEs.--In
work recently published, entitled Noble
Deeds of american Women, we find the fol-
lowing interesting anecdote, showing that
the ladies of the olden time were at times in
favor even of more radical change of dress
than is now proposed: CATER the departure
of Col. Prescott's regiment of minute men,
Mrs. David Wright, of Pepperell, Mrs. Job
Shattuck, of Groton, and the neighboring
women, collected at what is now Jewett' 5
Bridge, over the Nashua, between Pepperell
and Groton, clothed in their absent hus-
bands apparel, and armed with muskets,
pitchforks, and such other weapons as they
could find and having elected Mrs Wright
their commander, resolutely determined that
no foe to freedom, foreign or domestic,
should pass that bridge, for rumors were rife
that the regulars were approaching, and
frightful stories of slaughter flew rapidly
from place to place, and from house to
house.
"Soon there appeared one on horseback,
supposed to be reasonably engaged in con-
veying intelligence to the enemy. By the
implicit command of Sergeant Wright, he
was Immediately arrested, endorsed, search
ed and the reasonable correspondence found
concealed in his boots. He was detained
prisoner, and sent to Oliver Prescott, Esq,
of Groton, and his dispatches were sent to
the Committee.

REMARKABLE INSTANCE OF SAGAClTY IN
HoRsE.--The following circumstance
was related to us by Doct. I. ofthis (Kana-
wha) county whose name will be sufficient
guaranty for its truth with all who know
him.
Having been called to see patient at
some distance from home he was detained
until it had become quite dark. He how
ever set out on his return. His road, which
was nothing more than bride path, lay
through dense forest for some miles before
it united with the turnpike road, the thick
foliage of the trees increased the darkness
to such degree, that he found it impossible
to see his way, and he soon found that he
had wandered from it, and was involved in
the intricacies of the forest. After wander
ing in various directions in vain effort to
discover the path, he at length dismounted
in order to seek for it more effectually,
when the animal he was riding, favorite
mare, suddenly jerked the bride from his
hand and trotted off briskly in direction
opposite to that in which he was going, and
was soon out of hearing. The doctor was
just making up his mind that he would
nave W iudhO Aio way uOiliC III lllC UCol Aldll-
ner he could, when he was surprised to
heard a low neigh in the direction the mare
had gone; following the direction of the
sound for about hundred yards, he dis
covered her standing in the path he had
been seeking and apparently awaiting his
arrival; he approached her for the purpose
of recovering the bride anG remounted.
But this was no part of her plan, for she
Immediately trotted off again until she ceas-
ed to hear his step,when she again stopped,
uttered the same low neigh and waited I'M
til she heard him approaching then NOV
ed on again and so continued until she had
guided him into the open road when know
ing that he had no farther use for her guild
ance, she galloped off home nor did he see
her again until he arrived there, where he
found her very quietly awaiting his arrival.

soLILoauY OF A LoAEER.

Seth Grimes and were classmates once,
And was rich and he was poor;
had alas it was my bane,
The wealth father had in store.
Seth toiled at morn and noon and night
Until his hands were hard and brown,
To paw his board and Tailor's bills,
While was lounging round the town.
But mostly in the dry good stores,
To see the pretty girls come in,
Or smoking with my Jolly peers,
Who were the fools Of Aud Lang Syno.
The village bellies looked proud and fierce,
IL Seth made 'em the least advance,
And none from lSEz down to PoLL,
would be his partner AT the dance.
but, half drunk with sparkling port,
Waited with the fairest Of the fair;
Proud "high born" lncz' proud papa,
Once asked what my intentions were.
Thus stood Seth Grimes and at school
And yet on exhibition day,
Although the ladies praise me much,
He, somehow, bore the prize away.
In brief, through long and weary nights
He stored his mind with knowledge rare,
And Learned how to guzzle wine,
And how TO pick good cigar.
Some three and thirty years have past,
Since we Oh life's great sea set sail,
And 10 the beam is sadly turned,
In fortunes strange uneven scale.
My Wanted wealth has taken wings
And flown away to parts unknown;
Indeed-with sorrow be il said
Pun on the poor list of the town.
While Seth who toiled to pay his way,
Until his hands were hard aud brown,
Is now receiving his reward
As Senator in Washington.
