All the separate action of woman is as ever
has been, and always will be false, foolish,
vain, destructive of her own best and hoiest
qualities, void of every good ellcct-and
productive of intolerable mischiefs ! Man
is a wretch without women but woman is
monster-thank Heaven, an almost i'm
possible and hitherto imaginary monster
without man as her acknowledged principal |!
As true as | had once Il mother whom
loved, were there any possible prospect of
woman's taking the social stand which some
of them--poor, miserable, abortiye crea-
lures, who only dream of such things be-
cause they have missed womans peculiar

Putnam as a Spy.

Among the officers of the Reyolutionar,
army, none, probably, possessed more orig
inaiity than General Putnam, who was ec
centric and fearless, blunt in his manners
the daring soldier, without the polish of tn,
gentleman. He might we'll be called th,
Marion of the North, though he disliked dis
guSe, probably from the fact of his ispng
which was very apt to overthrow any trick
cry which he might have in view.
AT this time stronghold called Horse
neck, some miles from New York, was in
the hands Of the British. Putnam, with a
few sturdy patriots, was lurking in the vi
cinity, bent on driving them from the place.
Tired of lurking in ambush the men began
to be inpatient, and importuned the Gen.
with question as to when they were going
to have bout with the foe One morning
he made speech something to the following
elect, which convinced them there was
stmethng in the wind
Fellows, you have been idle too long
and SO have | Pm going to Bushs, al
llorSeneck, in an hour, with an OK team an(
bag OF corn If come back | will let
you know the particulars if should not
Ict them nave It, by hockey"
lie shortly afterwards mounted his on
cart, dressed as one of the cOmmonest order
OF Yankee farmers, and was soon at Bush's
tavern, which was in possession Of the Brit
sh troops. No sooner did the officers espy
him then they began to question him as to
his whereabouts, and finding him complete
simpIeton, as they thought, they began to
quiz him. aud threatened to seize the corn
and fodder
" How much do you ask for your whole
concern 2" asked they
+ For mercy's sake, gentlemen" " replied
the mock clOdhopper, with the most deplo-
rable look Of entreaty, only let me off,
and you shall have my hull team and load
for nothing and if that won't dew, III
give you my word III return tomorrow, and
pay you heartily for your kindness and con
descensOn"
" Well" said they, "we'll take you at
your word Leave the team and prOyendeI
with us, and we won't require bail for your
appearance.
Putnam gave up the team and sauntered
about for an hour or so, gaining all the IN
formation he wished lie then returned to
his men and told them of the foe, and his
plan Of attack
The morning came, and with it sailed out
the gallant band The British were hand
led with rough hands and when they sur
rendered to Gen. Putnam, the clodhopper,
he sarcastcly remarked
Gentlemen, have kept my word.

Distressing Affair.

The editor of the Milwaukee Wisconsin
writes from New York the following ac
count of recent case of fragrant immorali
ty, which has cast deeper gloom than the
shadow of death upon respected family,
and diShonored wide circle of fashionable
life in that city
Fashionable society is just now pro-
foundly stirred by an elopement-in SO
called high life. 1t is the talk of even this
great city, for The circumstances are most
extraordinary and distressing AS the af-
fair has got into the prints, Il few words
will not be amiSS. The hero is Maj. Rear
ney, who lost his right arm in the Mexican
