ANEcDorE OF WAsuINGToN.- We e
find in Collins Historical Sketches OF
kentucky the following litlle-known
anecdote Of Washington:
Colonel Deyall Payne was the son
of William Payne, whose paternal an
cestor accompanied Lord Fairfax from
England when he came over to col
onize his grant in Virginia. At this
time Gen. Washington was stationed
in Alexandria as Il colonel of a Brit
ish regiment, before the war Of the re-
volution, an alteration took place in
the court house yard between him and
William Payne, in which Payne knock
ed Washington down. Great excite
mcnt prevailed, as Payne was known
to be firm, and stood high, and Wash
ington was beloved by ali.
\ nights reflection, however, salts
fed Washington that lie was the az
gressor, and in the wrong, and in the
mornin., like a true and magnanimous
hero, he sought an interview with
Payne, which resulted in an apology
from Washington, and a warm and last
ing friendship between the two, found
ed on mutual esteem. During the re-
volutionary war, while Washington was
on visit to his family, Mr.. Payne
with his son Devall, went to pay hi.

Washington met him some distancC
from the house, took him by the hanc
and led him to the presence Of Mrs

THE TURN CT LIFE.-Between the
years of forty and sixty, a man who has
properly regulated himself may be con
sidered as in the prime Of life. HIS
matured strength Of constitution rem
ders himself almost impervious to the
attacks Of disease, and experience has
given soundncss to his judgment. His
mind, is resolute, firm, and equal; all
his functions are in the highest order ;
he assumes the mastery over business;
builds up competence on the founda-
ton he has formed in early manhood,
and passes through a period Of life at
tended by many qualifications. Hav-
ing gone year or two past sixty, he
arrives at critical period in the road
Of existence; the river of death flows
before him, and he remains at stand
still But athwart this river is via
duct, called The Turn of Life, which,
if crossed in safety, leads to the valley
of 'old age round which the river
winds, and then flows beyond without
boat or causeway to affect its pas
sage, The bridge is, however, CON
structed of fragile materials, and it de-
pends upon how it is trodden whether
1t bend or break. Gout, apoplexy, and
other bad characters are also in the
vicinity to waylay tho traveller, and
thrust him from the pass but let him
grid up his loins, and provide himself
with fitting staff and he may trudge
on in safety with perfect composure.
To quit metaphor, The Turn Of Life
is turn either into prolonged walk,
or into the grave. The system and
powers having reached their utmost
expansion now begin either to close
like the flowers at sunset, or break
down at once One injudicious stimu-
liant, single fatal excitement, may
force it beyond its strength; whilst a
careful supply of props, and The with
drawal Of all that tends 10 force plant
will sustain it in beauty and vigor until

Mr.. EpIToR:
We have noticed from time to time articles
in your paper relative to building Church
in this place, and are pleased to witness the
interest you manifest in this matter The
undersigned were, in the month of Septem-
Der last, chosen as Board Of Trustees, for
the purpose of pushing such project to a sue
cessful completion; and some money has
been collected the purpose which is now in
the hands CT the Rev. b. n. Seymour But
owing to the fact that the Board of Supervi-
sors, and our gentlemanly Sheriff, P. Freer.
E-q have kindly offered, free Of charge the
use of the Court 10 I'M at present, and from
the fact that we think more money can be
raised next Spring than now, and thereby a
better Church built, and better lot and loea
iion obtained, we have concluded it to be
advisable to delay building until next
Spring. The money paid in can be had by
those who subscribed it, if so desired, by
calling upon Rev Mr. Seymour; but if not
called for will be strictly applied next spring
