Washington's Last Vote.

A correspondent of the Charleston

I vas present when Gen. Washing

He died on the. 14th of December follow

Immediately fronting Gadsby's tavern.
The entrance into it was by q slight
fight of crazy steps on the outside. The
election was progressing-there we're
several thousand persons in the court
house yard and immediate ~neighhering
streets; and / was standing on Gadsby'x
steps when the Father of his Country
drove up, and Immediately approached
the court house steps; and when within a
yard or two of them l saw eight or ten
good-looking men from different direc.
tons, certainly without the least concert

selves in positions to uphold and support
the, steps, should they fall in the Gene

I was Immediately at his back, and int
that position entered the court house,
with him-followed in his wake through
a dense crowd to the polls-heard him
vote-returned with him to the outward
cr~owd-heard him cheered by more than
two thousand persons as he entered his
carriage-and saw him depart.
There were FIVE or six candidates att

approached them, they rose in a body and
bowed smilingly; and the salutation hay.

General immediately cast his eyes to.

General, how do you vote 2" The Gene.

A Good Whitewash.

AS this is the season Of the year wher
people begin to clean up and make things
look fresh for the approaching summer
we have frequent requests respecting the
best and cheapest whitewashes, both fol
the outside and inside Of houses. AS WI
have in former volumes, given reliable
recipes of this character, we have no oc
casion to refer our constant readers tt
them our new subscribers, however, can
not avail themselves of the same refer
ence-the following, therefore, is fol-

Take half a bushel of fresh-burnei
white lime, and slack it either with hot
or cold water in a tub or barrel, Wher
thoroughly Stacked dissolve in the water
required to thin the lime, two quarts o.
common salt, stir it thoroughly, add one
quart of sweet milk, and it is ready for
use to put on with a brush.
This wash is for the outside of build
ings, fences, &C., and is very durable
Some put glue in whitewash, and others
-four and rice paste ; but these render
it liable to scale off in very dry weather
The above wash may be made a cream
color by the addition Of. ochre.
The above whitewash is all that can BIZ
desired for the interior of houses, except
i g salt, it must be omitted. as it tends
to imbfbe moisture. French white is su
perior to lime washes for the ceilings O.
rooms, as it is not so liable to turn vel
lowish in color, but it rubs off so easily
hat it cannot he used for side walls.

At about half past eleven o'clock, wher
Miss Thorn had been for some time en-

deity, the fictitious police-offcer heard {
fairy footstep at the door, and in a mo

-arresting her, as it were. on a warrant
from the court of Dan Cupid.
A hackney-coach stood just around The
corner. previously engaged by Tom, and
in it he and Katie were soon snugly en-
sconced and rolling rapidly away.

Katie had prepared herself for the trip
during the evening. while the "poliee
man" was enjoying his sherry in the base
mert, and hat the hackman who drove
them to the hotel, had carried a small
trunk from the hall, where Tom hat
noiselessly conveyed it, to his hack.
A month afierward brought back Mr.

AS for Miss Spinela Thorn, she knew
nothing Of this little escapade, until sh'

that she learned the whole story witt
many additions and comments, of an ex
traordinarily Imaginative nature, from
the lips Of the cook who, | regret to say
had informed herself of the particulars
through that w~ell-known but unjusti6a

ToBAcco.-Halls Journal of Health
mentions what it calls an instructive
and alarming fact in reference to the
Wall Street forger recently sent to the
Penitentiary. 1t was proven on the trial
that he was never seen down town with
out having a cigar in his mouth that he
was never we'll. On entering the prison,
smoking was absolutely and at once pro
hibited, BY an infexible rule. In three
months ne gained fifteen pounds in flesh,
and his general health was improved in

Hymn of the MarseilIaise.

The Marseillaise was inspired by genius. patriotism, youth, beauty and champagne. Rougot de Lisle was an officer of the garri- son at Strasburg, and native of Mount Jura. He was an unknown poet and com poser. He had a peasant friend, named Dietrick, whose wife and daughters were the only critics and admirers of the soldier poets song. One night he was at supper with his friends family, and they had only coarse bread and slices of ham Dietrick. looking sorrowfully at De Li,le, said U Plenty is not our feast. but we have the courage of the soldiers heart; 1 have still one bottle left in the cellar-bring it my daughter, and let us drink to liberty and our country ]" The young girl brought the bottle: 1t was soon exhausted and De LiSle went staggering to bed; he could not sleer for the cold, but his heart was warm and full of the beatings of genius and patriotism
 He took small clavicord and tried to com pose song; sometimes the words were composed frst-sometimes the air. Direct ly he fell asleep over the instrument, and waking at daylight. wrote down what he had conceived in the delrium of the night 1 Then he walked the family and sang his pro- duction; at first the women turned pale. then they wept, then burst forth into a cry of enthusiasm. It was the song of the na- ton and of terror. Two months afterwards Dietrick went to the scafold, listening to the self-same music, composed under his own roof and by the inspiration of his last bottle of wine. The people sang it every where; it flew from city to city, to every public orchestra. Marseilles adopted the song at the opening and closing of its clubs hence the name Hymn of the Marseil- laise ;" then itspread all over France; they sang it in their houses, in public assemblies and in the stormy street convocation. De Lisle's mother heard them and said to her son. "What is this revolutionary hymn. sung by bands of brigands, and with which your name is mingled?" De Lisle heard 1t and shuddered as 1t sounded through the streets of Paris, and rang from the Alpine passes, while he, a royalist, fled from the infuriated people, frenzed by his own in- spired words. France was a great amphi- theatre of anarchy and blood. and DeLisle's song was the battle-cry. There is no na- tlonal air that will compare with the Mar seillaise in sublimity and power; it embraces the soft cadences full of the peasants home. and the stormy clangor of silver and steel when an empire is overthrOwn; it endears the memory of the vine dresser's cottage and makes the Frenchman, in his exile, cry La belle France!" forgetful of the torch. and sword, and guillotine which have made his country a spectre of blood in the eyes of nations. Nor can the foreigner listen to it, sung by company of exiles, or executed by band of musicians, without feeling that it is the pibroch of battle and war; Oh, what mighty, devastating spirit went forth from hepeasant's last bottle of wine It was incense poured on national altar, which reflected anarchy, and murder, and rebellion in the clouds.
