We shall give an account tomorrow Of the
organization Of the Republican Party, in Mich
igan, which took place on the 9th, at the great
Mass Convention held at jackson, called by
the People Of that State without distinction Of
Party.
The papers received from Detroit do not
confirm those telegraphic dispatches Of the In

Wings did no such thing--nor tho Demo
crats--nor the Independent Democrats
IL has been suggested that the prefix e" Demo
cratic should prcoede the word Republican,"
so that the Peoples Party, against the Slave
holding Olgarchy, may DO known as the
" Democratic Republican Party"

DARiNe LEAP-The following is ia
ken from an English exchange:
At the stewards ordinary, at the
White Hart Hotel, Aylesbury, after the
late arislocratic steeple chases, the con-
versation turning on the feat OF bring
ing horse up into the dining-rcCm in
which the company were then assembled,
which was once done by Lord Joselyn
and Mr.. Ricardo, during the meeting of
the Ro. al Hunt some few years ago,
Mr.. Symonds offered to bring a gray
horse Of his up-stiirs and lead him
round the table. The animal shortly
announced his progress by loud clatter-
ing on the staircase. In few minutes
the horse was gazing on the assembled
company. His owner then led him over
a f ght Of chairs, which he jumped
beautifully. Nothing would then satisfy
the company, but that he should jump
the dining tables. The proprietor OF
the hotel, fearing some serious accident
might occur, as the room is of great an
tiquity, having been built by the Earl
Of Rochester IN the time Of Charles II,
strongly objected but be was overruled
and the horse was led over the tables,
everything standing. The champagne
glasses ratified, the plates quivered, the
candlesticks shook, but nothing was dis
placed; back again he vent, clearing
everything at a bound Whereupon,
Mr.. Manning, of Wendover, volunteer
ed to ride hin bare backed over, and he
did SO, without saddle or bride. The
celebrated genlleman-jock, Capt ,in Bar
lowe, next essayed, and managed to
make smash of one table with It's con-
tents. 1t was only a temporary check,
for in the face Of tremendous fire and
the cheering of all present, he achieved
the feat gal .anlly. Il WIS now time to
desist, and to get the horse down stairs
This was sooner said than done, for tue
stairs and passages being kept pol she'd, &,
the gallant gray slipped dreadtully, and
it was evidently afraid of the descent.
At length, at the suggestion of worthy
Baronet, he was blind foided, and thus
descended into the entrance hall, but
managed to break about dozen of the
carved oak bannisters in his progress.
The height of the horse is fifteen
hands, two The apartment is forty
feet long by twenty-five vide the stove
in the room is traditionaly sid to have
once belonged to Nell Gwynne The
sides of the room, present tasteful dis
play of carved oak and panel painting.

GRATEFUL You've AMERIoA-A day
or two since, an adventurous boy, num-
Dering some ten summers, undertook to
scull skiff across the Ohio, from Gin
cinnati to Covington. When little over
halt his voyage had been accomplished,
German gentleman standing on the
Kentucky side, saw the irail bark capsize
and the boy struggling in the angry tide.
In a moment he divested himself of coat
and boots, and plunged into the stream
to the youths assistance He reached
him just as he was sinking for the last
time. and caught the youngster by the
head, On which the latter caught him
by the arm, and for few moments both
were in danger of being lost. Happily
the gentleman possessed great presence
Of mind, and gave the boy a sudden
kick, which caused him to release his
hold, and enable his preserver to bring
him safely to shore. Again on dry land, :,
Young America shook himself like a true
water-dog, and turning to his preserver,
said in emphatic tones" What the
ID did you kick me for, you ID old
Dutchman :"

DEFINITION OF a GExTLEMAN.-The
late and lamented judge Talfourd, in the
case of Wag rs. Kelson, tried at the
Bristol England Assizes, shortly before
his sudden death, thus defined the char
acter Of gentleman
The evidence proved that the defen-
dant. while in the theatre, had said to
the plaintiff, DO not speak to me, I am
a gentleman and you are tradesman.'
'Gentleman,' said the learned Judge, is
a term which does not apply to any sta
ton. The man of rank who deports
himself with dignity and candor, and
the tradesman vino discharges the duties
of life with honor and integrity. are
alike entitled to it; nay the humbIest
artizan, who fulfls the obligations ,cast
upon him, with virtue and with honor,
is more entitled to the name OF gentle
man, than the man who could indulge
in offensive and ribald remarks, however
big his station.'n
