was a bill before the New York House of
Assembly, in relation to q locality in Della
ware county, that was called "'The Devils
Half-acre." Elisha Williams took occasion
te express his surprise, from what he saw

nA- Persons writing for the daily press,
says the Sandusky Register, should never
plead inexperience, and demand of the hard
worked editor much care and valuable time
in complying with the usual request to
"please correct for the press" If the wr-
ter has that which should be told, he or she
should see that it is placed in such shape
as to pass directly into the hands of the
compositor Such preparation is great
recommendation to the editors favor We
would impress this upon the attention of our
correspondents, because too many pre-
sumo too much upon our time and good ma
ture.

\ MAN ARRESTED BY \ WoMAN.-A
gentleman who was present at the eXamln-
alton Of the Rands, at Concord, New
Hampshire, tells us that no small amuse-
ment was created in the court by the testi-
mony of Mrs. Clarissa Hill, wife OF the ta-
yern keeper at whose house Isaac Rand
was arrested. She stated that she sat down
bv the side of Rand, engaged him in CON
wersation sent for Mr. Sheriff RiXford, and
when she thought the proper time had ar
rived, clapped her hand on his shoulder,
SAYING, at the same time, ''you are my pri
soner," and took out and read tie reward
notice to him. Rand wanted it, but she
refused, telling him she might want to ar
rest the other one. The graphic style in
which the exploit was narrated give to ii
an additional interest.

nH-Mr. GALE, one of the examiners in
the Patent Office, says, i'll one OF his re-
ports that patent that is worth anything,
if properly managed, is worth from fifty to
s;xtv thousand dollars. Tho cases are very
rare however, where patentee is willing
TO fake the actual cost of his patent, inclu-
ding a reasonable compensation for his time
in inventing. An instance is mentioned OF
a patentee who has received twenty thou
sand dollars for very simple improve
ment in the mode of attaching lamps te
lanterns.

THE HoN. ABBOTT LAwRENcE-A speci-
men American was the late Abbott Lawrence.
A contemporary, in speaking of his character,
remarks:
Another trait of his character, which en-
deared him to all who knew him, ought not to
be forgotten we mean his kindness to all.
rich and poor, who approached him. Wealth
never separated him from his acquaintance
ana the friends of his youth were not stunned
IN the DAYS of his prosperity. 1t was this char
acteristic' lar more than his wealth which made
him so much the favorite of his fellow citizens,
There was nothing selfish or enyious in his
nature, and during all his life he treated men m
as his equals.
