TREASURE TaoyE.--Mr. Benjamin s. Dey,
Of Cnrrtuck county,(N CT while plough
ing in his field, few days ago dug up 4
pile of old Spanish gold and silver coin to
the amount Of about six thousand dollars. Ii
is supposed to have been buried during the
Revolution, and the accident that led to the
discovery was most singular. 1t appears
that an old pine tree had fallen near the
fence Of Mr.. DIS farm, and the branches
stuck in the spot where the money was
found. As the tree was an obstruction to
those engaged in ploughng, it was raised
from its position, when it was discovered
that the old branch had several pieces Of the
con sticking to il. They then went to work
and dug down 10 the depth Of four feet, when
they were startled BY the discovery Of this
large amount Of money. This we assure
our readers is no hoax; and rather gives
credence 10 the tradition that there was
money deposited on that part Of the coast by
Blackboard the pirate.

'lA Continental Story.

! A woman employed as hOusekeeper
at the chateau Of Loudpn, near this
city, recently inherited q sum of 800
francs. A peasant employed to take
care Of the grounds of the ehateau,
hearing other good fortune, deter
mined topossess himself Of the money
Accordingly D few nights ago-the
owner Df Ire chateau and aIl the sero
wants being absent-he got the woman
on some pretext to visit him at . room
which he occupied in one Of the depen-
dencies of the chateau. After q while
he locked the door, and with the most
dreadful threats, declared he would
murder her, unless she would give him
at once the 800 francs. The woman
beingseriously alarmed, took him to
her chamber and gave him the money.
The man then declared that he must
murder her to prevent her from accus-
ing him, and he summoned her to say
what kind Of death she would prefer,
The poor woman prayed for mercy, but
he peremptorily told her she must
either die by the rope OF the knife, and
she at last selected hanging. The
man then tied her hands behind her.
and fastened her to the bedste~d he
then mounted a9chair to FIX a rope I'd
a beam, making a moose at the end
Having fastened the rope, he put his
arm in the toose to see if the latter
would slip;at that moment the woman
kickedsthe chair, which fell, and tbs
man remained suspended by the arm
They remained thus until morning
when their cries attracted the atten
ton of some laborers, who, on hearing
the woman'sl story, released her., bu
left the man suspended until the.
could summon magistrate. Th'
functionary had the man cut down, am
after receiving the woman s deposition
caused him to be sent to prison in thi
city to await his trial for therObbery

Mercantile Honor.

f. b.
- It might tempt one to be proud Of
his species when he looks at the faith
that is put in him by distant CORES
pondent, who, without one other hold
ofhim. than his honor, consigns to him
the wealth Of a fotilla, and sleeps in
the confidence that it is safe. It is,
indeed, an animating thought, amid
the gloom of this worlds depravity,
when we behold the credit which one
man puts in another, though separated
byioceans and by continents, when he
fixes the anchor Of a. sure and steady
dependence on the reported honesty Of
one whom he never saw; when, with
all his fears for the treachery of the
varied elements through which his
property has teqpsss, he knows, that
should it only arrive at the door of its
destined agent, all his fears and all his
suspicion may be atan end. We know
nothing finer than such an act Of hom-
age from one human being to another,
when, perhaps, the diameter of the
gIobeis between them; nor do we
think that either the renown of her
LHf =
victories, nor the wisdom Of her coun-
cils, so signalize, the country in which
we live, as does the honorable dealing
Of her merchants. All the glories .oi
British policy and British valor are far
eclipsed by the moral splendOr which
British faith has thrown over the name
and character of our nation; nor has
she gathered 50 proud a distinction
from all the tributaries Of her power
as she has done from the awarded con.
fdence of those men of. all tribes ani
colors, and languages, who look to oul
agency for the most faithful Of al
management, and1to our keeping fol
the most inviolable Of all custody.
