bushel of indian, and box to put it in. be-
side something to 'mix up" with; and no
loubt the jury took this into considerations
and offset it against his great loss. The
Plaintiffs pulse appeared to be as strong and
REGULAR as ever. his cheek had not lost its
freshness and bloom. nor his eve its lustrc.
his port was as majestic and his bearing az
dicnifed as before. and it is our solemn opin-
ion that, if he will hut improve this season,
when according to SAKE,
Cupid comes mp IS mercury goes down,
and bring his next action in that gods .iur,s .
dicton he will be more successful in cor''ng-
and some real estate. some corporfal property,
some blushing lass. subject to his attachment,
will be found within his precinct, wiereof or
ecutiou remains to he done and he will be
permitted to complete the levy, ard lead his
victim to the altar.
Take courage Mr. Brown.
