BEAUTIES or CoALrTIoE.-An incident occurred at thu recent Cattle Show which Illustrates the relations of coalitions with parties of opposite principles. A worthy loco foco with national principles and having little regard for State Laws, wishing to turn an honest penny, placed his barrel of whiskey, in the dark, at the back end of his tent and drove brisk trade at the counter in front, by selling his whiskey at four cents glass; Another worthy individual of oposite principles. friend of the largest liberty had a "one idea' strike him, and forth with backed up his tent behind the oth- CT. in which he also had dark place. Presently the first dealer found that his business was declining by reason of his neighbor behind him selling the same lot of whiskey at three cents glass; Upon guing round into his neighbor's tent he discovered another tap, in the latter end of his own barrel, which showed plainly. the capital the free-soiler was trading on Much enraged, he exclai> med. " you scoundrel, I'll prosecute 7 ou for stealing my liquor ;'' '' Just as quick as you please" said the other, :" but if you do, I'll prosecute you for selling ii- quor without license" Whereupon the prosecution was dropped on both sides, and coalition and compromise was effected " Uithout crifcing in the slightest degree, the principles ef e;ther.''
