An "Attachment" !"
SQUosH.

We have heard good story, of which an
Alabama Sheriff was the hero. Court was in
session, and amid the multiplicity of business
which crowded upon him at term time. he stop
ped at the door of a beautiful widow, on the
sunny side of thirty, who, by the way, had of
ten bestowed melting glances upon the said
Sheriff. He was admitted, and the widow ap-
peared. The confusion and delight which the
arrival of her visitor occasioned, set off to
greater advantage than usual, the captivating
charms of the widow NJ. Her cheeks bore the
beautiful blended tints Of the apple blossom ;
her lips resemtled the rose buds upon which
the morning dew yet fingered, and her eyes
were like the quivers of Cupid, the glances Of
love and tenderness with which they were fill
ed resembled the arrows that only wanted a
beau (pardon the pun,) to do full execution
After few commonplace remarks
ssMadam," said the matter-of-fact Sheriff.sI
have an attachment for YOU"
A deeper blush than usual mantled the cheek
of the fair widow. The downcast eyes, whose
glances were entered upon her beautiful foot,
which, half concealed by her flowing drapery,
gently patted the floor she with equal candor
replied:
"Sir. the attachment is reciprocal
For sometime the Sheriff maintained as
tonished silence; at length he said:
"Madam will you proceed to court a''
"Proceed to court" replied the lady with
merry laugh then shaking her head she said /:
'sNo, sir! though this is leap year. will not
take advantage of the liscence granted to my
sex and, therefore, greatly prefer that you
shouh proceed TO COURT"
"But, madam, the justice is waiting.'
ssLet him wait, l am not disposed to hurry
matters in such an unbecoming manner; and,
beside sir, when the ceremony is performed,
wish you to understand that greatly prefer
minister to Justice of the peace"
A light dawned upon the Sheriff's brain
.Madam,'' said he, rising from his chair with
asolemn diffnity, ssthere is a great mistake
here; my language has been misunderstood !;
the attachment of which 1 speak was issued
from the Office of Squire c., and commands
me to bring you instantly before him, to ans
wer contempt of Court, in disobeying sub
puna in the case of Smith vs.. JonesI''

VThe Puritans of old were as vehement in
their expressions of execration as they were
remarkable for their assumed intimacy with
heaven. Ebenezer Erskine, pastor OF the Iron
Church at Edinburg, (Scotland,) in his pray
er for vengeance upon Louis XIV, is made
to go it thus :-''Lord sink him, confoond him
and damn him use him, Lord. as We did SEN
acherib of old tax an shake him over the
pit o. hell but for gudesake dinna let him fa'
in.'

RoWed up Salt River.

Salt River, where it itdebouches into the Ohio
River, is not more than fifty or sixty yards in
breadth, but very deep. 1t is never fordable,
even in the dryest seasons; and, being naviga-
Bile for fourteen miles above its mouth, has not
been bridged at that point. We descended
its steep and difficult banks, embarked our car
riages upon flat ferry boat, and were convey
ed across.
Tho view, looking up the river, was very
beautiful. Tall elms and sycamores clothed
the banks, dropping their boughs almost to the
water, and forming vista of foliage through
wooden hills. longed to be rowed up it.
While On the spot took occasion to inquire
the derivation of the slang political phrase,
ssRowed up Salt River,'' and succeeded in dis
covering it. Formerly, there were extensive
salt works on the river, short distance from
its mouth.
The laborers employed in them were a set
of athletic, belligerant fellows, who soon be-
came noted, far and wide, for their achieve
ments in the pugilistic line. Hence it become
common thing among the boatmen on the
Ohio, when one of their number was refracto-
~, to say to him, s:We'll row you up Sal,
River" where, of course, the bully salt men
would have the handling of him. By natu.
