Dor, Mr.. Guzzle, has been arranged at
the bar for drunkenness" said Mrs.
Partington, and she sighed as she
thought Of his wife and children al
home, with the cold weather close at
hand, and the searching winds intrud-
ing through the chinks in the windows,
and waving the tattered curtain like a
banner, while the little ones stood shiv-
ering by the faint embers. "God for
give him and pity then," said she,
with tone of voice tremulous with
emotion. "But he was bailed out,'
said Ike, who had devoured the resi-
due of the paragraph. and laid the pa
per in pan of liquid custard that the
dame was preparing for Thanksgiving,
and Eat swinging the oven door to and
fro, as if to fan the fire that cracked,
and blazed within. "Bailed out, was
he," said she. well, ] should think it
would have been cheaper to pump
him out, for when our cellar was filled,
after the city fathers had degraded
the street, we had to have it pumped
out, though there wasn't half so much
10 it as he has swiled down." She
paused and reached up to the high
shelves Of the closet for her pie plates,
while Ike busted himself by tasting
The various preparations. The dame
thought that was the smallest quart of
sweet cider she had ever seen.

SUGAR STRArNER.-The Franklin
Journal says:
Mr.. F. D. Richardson, Of St.
Mays, Louisiana, has patented pro-
cess for drawing off Sugar from the
kettles, which consists simply in empty
ing the :" battery" by means Of a pipe
instead Of using bucket. The pipe
is. .rivited on to the bottom of the ket-
tie, and penetrating the wall. inclosed
by stop valve, which, when the SUI
gar is sufficiently cooked, is raised by
hand, and the kettle, emptied in
much shorter time than can be done
in the old way.
Some eight or ten years ago, pa.
tent was obtained by NJ Harevel, of
this city, for . similar arrangement.
Messrs. Bown and McKiterick purched
the right, but tho ntion-although
a good one, was never turned to any
practical account

STEAMER s. s. PRENTIss SUsK.-
The Mobile Tribune, Of last Sunday,
says:
The steamboat s. s. Prentiss, un-
dergoing repairs during the summer at
Stockston, sank on Friday last, in wa
ter deep enough to come up to her
cabin floor. A few days previous to
this her crew was ordered to put every
thing aboard and bring her TO the city,
but when she had received large
quantity Of heavy timbers, wheel arms,
etc, her hull was brought so much
lower in the water that it had been for
several months before, and her seams
being opened from the action of the
sun, that she soon filled with water
and sank, before those left in charge
Of her could prevent it.
The Prentiss was considered one of
the most comfortable boats that ran on
the Tombigbee river, and this misfor-
tune will delay for time her being
put in the trade.

and significance.

The Dye we refer to Miss ELIZABETH

AS Louisianais universally acknowl-
edged to be the "sugar bowl of the
Union," Of course her representative
must have been corlespondingly sweet.
While we are prepared to maintain
that the thirty sisters who surrounded
here, where all their most ardent adj
mirers could claim, still the fact is un-
deniable that she was the sweetest
representative ofthe sweetest constitu-
ancy known to the occasion.
Consequently we say, Dye forev-

motto--''never say die" Sink or
swim, live or die, survive or perish"
we unhesitatingly, as good LouisiaD-

SUNDAY LAws.-The city Of Hartford
I Conn.,. is at present agitated with the
vexed question growing out of Sunday
laws. The Press says:
Yesterday the streets of the city in
the infected districts were remarkably
quiet. This is to be attributed to the
orders Of the Mayor to keep the grog
shops closed on the Sabbath. The
benefcent effect was also observable at
the'Police Court this morning. Mon
day morning is generally occupied at
this Court by cases Of assault, drum
keness breach of peace. &c, caused
by the open rum sellars. Yester-
day but one arrest was made-this
one JERRY O'BR1EN for keeping his
crib open yesterday. The plea for
defense of all these cases has been that
the defendants kept boarding houses.
Judge COLLIER seeing no necessity for
their selling liquor to every one who
homes along takes no notice of such a
plea and they are fined accordingly.
