THE FATAL SILVER BULLET.
A NARRATIVE OF FACTS.

[Captain Joseph MansJfeId. (the hero of the following revolutionary incident ) was for thirty years resident of this town. parish of South Farms, and died here in 1922. He is spoken of by our elder citizens, as true patriot, prompt and efficient officer, and most worthy citizen. He made many saeri6ces for h's country in the days of her pcr;l---asats lived to see her independent, prosper ous and great. His name is worthy of being remembered among those who have done honor to our State, and as one whose history is linked with that of the nation for the welfare and glory. of which he periled his life and sacrificed

LOST CHILDREN FouNp. About three weeks since. we aoliced the case of Mrs. Best, who for upwards of two years past has been in search of her two daughters. who were placed in the charge of . man na med Clements living in New York. to be taken care of by him while their mother was absent, ai New Orleans, We are happy to say that she has succeeded in find- ing them. Clements, it appears, instead of fulfilling his engagement with her, took the children to the City Prison, where be represented them to he orphans. A lady who happened to visit the prison, believing this statement to be true, took the children under her care. and finally procured them situations, the younger in family residing near Utica, and the elder in one residing in Ohio. The youngest is now with her mother, and the other soon will be.

Mir. Moseley, the new editor of the Richmond Whig, says in his in troductory:
 With respect 10 Federal politics l am, as believe all Wings and nine tenths of the Democrats are, well content with MT. Fillmore's admin istration. That gentleman, by his wise, moderate, and patriotic con- duct has well nigh disarmed even faction itself. To support him for re- election would be tome labour of love. But whether he, wh, seems as unambitious and as disinterested as Washington himself, d.slres again to be candidate, | know not. Should another good and true whig be the nominee of the party, he will receive from this press whatever support 1t can command.

A Coop SHOT. "A bear, for some time past carrying on an improper intimacy with the young hogs be- longing to the settlers in the Queens s bush, closed his career last week in rather singular manner. From a lit- ter of nine in an indust ious mans hog stye. the bear had at divers times ab- stracted foul, and one night, on re- beating his visit. the hogs screa med turiously at the abstraction of one of their brethren, that the settler be- came alarmed and loading his g un in trepidation hastened out to the sty, and seeing the grizzly monster a few p,ces from him, with the porker in his tusks, he let fly with the muSket, and the reeeil was so violent that it threw him several feet backwards, with his head under the fence. Be- lieving that the blow had been dealt by the bear, and that the monster was upon him, he roared out hide ously, and was of course immedi- ately joined by his wife, who disabus- ed him of the idea that anything but herself was near him. He then got up and found his monster antagonist pierced through the neck and fast ened to the hogstye by the ramrod of the gun, he having forgotten in his hurry 10 abstract it from the weapon, and thus the recoil was so great as to upset him. The bear died immedi- ately, and his carcass amply repaid for the loss of the pigs, and the fright of being turned into grease in the bowels of the grizzly bruin.

 "St. Anthony contains nine stores; all of them are doing successful business. We have just enough competition to make goods cheap, and 10 allow the merchants a reasonable profit, We have also cabi net shop. four blacksmith shops, and two carriage shops-all having as much work as they can pnsh through. a4aa There IS not gambling institution. or a drinking saloon, or whiskey grocery or a grog shop in town. We have no room for those who frequent such places. es

peso Tor which he wanted lt. he stirred in good and sufficient dose of tartar enetic. Our stranger being thirsty and somewhat fatigucd by travelling, drank very freely of the beverage. while the Captain and others present barely tasted and passed it around. -1
 A free conversation soon commenced between the stranger and his new ac> quaintances. He inquired of Capt. M, the number of men under his command and at the different military stations above Redhook, whether they were furnished ;th field pieces or any kind of cannon ssaes aa9sber os sasstirels we-e ulaced on the watch at a time how often, -and at what time in the night they relieved, &c, &c. Abouttwelye or fifteen miutes after the toddy went round and went down, our guest began to grow pale and lock wild,-'something." said he ''is the mat ter with nae I feel very sick at my stomach all at once !'' He rose immedi- ately from his seat and went out into the woodward. where quantity of chips were lying, and soon began to evacuate his stomach. He was carefully watched by Capt. M. and several of the guard, and was SC sn by them to draw with his foot parcel of the chips over the matter emitted from his stomach before he re- turned into the house. While he was rinsing his mouth in the house, Capt. M directed a search to be made among the chips. where was soon found silver ball
 of the size of small musket bullet
 made by two pieces of very thinly plated silver, bent round. and slightly soddered together. Inclosed in this fatal bullet
 was found letter on silk paper. signed by Lord Howe,--addressed to Gen. Bur goyne. giving information respecting tile situation of the royal fleet and army at New Yolk. and requesting advice from the General blythe bearer, what progress te Has making with the army un Ter his command toward Albany, at which place he expected to meet him. But the de- ciphering aud reading the letter present. sd at first another puzzle for the Yankee Captain, --It commenced '.in the word. and figures following" (viz,) "M6 d2l, Ssr b6 tk2 b2lr2: yl5 wSll l2lrn.'' &c After little examination and study, how ever, the difficulty was overcome. IL was discovered that the arithmetical figures up to 6 inclusive. were substitut. ed for our vowels. thus al. e2, is, o4, u5. ye. The Key being now found i'm. mediately unlocked the whole contents of the silver bullet. The bearer ol course was continued in custody, and a court martial speedily formed, by whom on the clearest evidence of guilt,-the unfortunate prisoner was convicted, sen. tenc cd, and executed. ..

Horace Mann thus sums up few of the advantages of modern inventions; 'One boy, with n fourdrinier machine, win make more paper in twelve months than all Egypt could have made in hundred years in the reign of the Ptolemies. One gill with power press. will strike of book s faster than million scribes could copy them before the invention of printing. One man with an iron foundry, will turn out more utensils than Tubal Cain could have forged had he worked diligently till this time.'
