.GIyING HIM BEAMS"

We never knew exactly what was meant
by giving chap "beans,p till we heard Inc
Interpretation given TO the phrase by young
lady ip Indiana. AS the story goes, gen'ie-
man from this region was paying her very
marked attention, representing himself as
single, and disirous of changing his torlprn
condition. He had made some progress in
his. suit, when the lady learned that he was
married man. Her indignation, on making
the discovery, was unbounded-her thirst for
vengeance scarcely slakeable. After vari-
Gus plans had been considered and abandon
ed, her purpose was fixed, as follows :. She
loaded pistol, with beans, and on his next
visit she most unceremoniously presented
the weapon, to lid him its contents, and inquir-
ed if he would have them ra,U or cooked
Hes'ating, as It might naturally be expected
he would, in giving an answer, she decided
for him, and pulling the trigger, gave them
10 HIM raw. The aim Of the heroine was so
good, that Two of The beans struck her admi-
rer, inficting slight, but somewhat painful
wounds The source whence we derive
this incident, the Dayton Journal, informs us
that ii is 10 fancy sketch and would be
sworn to, on a stack of Bibles as high as a

THE LATE ANNA BAILEY, OF GROToN.
CONNECTICUT.

lhe wide notorie,y OF Mrs. BAILY is found
on a single incident which happened in the
summer OF 1sl3-an incident coarse and ln-
dicrous in itself, but which has been widely
circulated, and yet so much more frequently
alluded to than actually told, that a simple
detail Of the facts seems requisite. The
squadron of Commodore Decatur had been
chased into New London harbor by a supe-
rior fleet and an attack upon the town was
momeniariy expected. 1t was of great i'm.
portance that The fort on Groton Heights
should be Immediately prepared for vigor-
GUS defence. Major Simeon Smith, with IA
band of volunteers from New London, hasten
ed 10 the reinforcement of The garrison, and
preparations were made TO give the enemy a
warm reception, when il was discovered that
they were short of cartridges. Waddng was
wanted, and messenger was sent in haste
through the village 10 procure flannel. The
Inhabitants had mostly packed their goods
and were carrying them of to places less eA-
posed. Mrs Bailey was sending away her
effects, and had only few articles lef, in the
house. She was crossing the street 10 IL
neighbor's door when the messenger, having
traversed the village, asking in vain at every
house for flannel 10 make cartridges, accos,ed
her and made known his erIand and his i'll
success. Without a moments delay, as
quick as thought, she slipped her hand into
her pocket hole, loosened her skirt, shook it
off, and lifting it up, presented it 10 the mes
senger with right hearty laugh, expressing
a wish the important of which was, that it
might do its work promptly and efiec,ually.
The by-standers were much amused, and
uttered shout of admiration. The messen-
ger fastened wilh his prize 10 the fortress,
and made his report. The story was rehear
sed to the whole garrison, and the sacrificed
skirt being unrolled and displaced, was re-
ceived with loud acclamations The men,
rearing up on their pixies, declared tha, they
would fight unde it to the last diop of their
blood. Had the British actually made an at
tack at that time, it is quite probable tina, the
memorable garment would have beer run up
the flagstaff, and allowed to throw ont its
| folds upon the wind AS a banner.
This anecdoe went forthwith into the
newspapers aud was soon spread through
the Union. Mrs. Bailey was exalted 10 a
pinnacle of noloriely as the greatest of female
patriots. She was toasted, visited, caressed
| letters, tokens, and presents were sent 10 he;
from all quarters AT great naval and mil.
itary ball given in New London not long af-
forwards, Mrs. Bailey appeared in antique
costume, and was led out upon the floor by
the officer highest in rank that was present
on the occasion. Since that period: strangers
stopping at New London, have made it
point to visit Mrs Bailey. Two Presidents
OF the United Staes-Monroe and Jackson
in their respective tours through the Northern
States, after visiting Grotnn Fot, went in
stately procession 10 pay their respects to her
as the heroine of Groton.-N. London Chron-
icle.

civily declined both. The young man be-
sought her parents to intercede for him.
They did so and to no purpose. He then
sought the aid OF the Widow Redfeld, and
she had talk with Miss Susan. TO her
surprise, the girl would talk of nothing but
her son Daniel, his habits, his ability to
swim, his power to take care of himself.
TO her amazement, positive Susan didn't
and wouldn't believe he was dead or ever
had been. The widow almost forgot her
errand, and went home, blaming herself for
indplging hopes on the whm of spoiled.

sometimes came in those parts. Alter
great search, Capeeno was found, and told
that Miss Susan wanted tp see him very
