The Affrighted FISHERMAN.

One Of the best things we have heard
of for some time, happened lately. a
Yankee Schoolmaster, who hal been al
most starved to death among his country
patrons, resolved to go to the city and
feast himself for a week on oysters. Be
ing extremely penurious, he bcthought
him how he should get his prog, during
the week, for nothing; and having fixed
on a plan, he divei into the cellar of a
Frenchman, where, after taking a glass
of beer and complaining of his i'll health,
he asked the oysterman how much he
would charge to open him as many oys-
tiers as he could cat. After cycling his
lank customer, the Frenchman said he
would give him as many as he could
swallow for twenty-five cents. agreed"
cries the Yankee. anil to work goes Mon
sieur. One hundred were gulped down
in no time. "Sacra" cries the French
man, al be serve one dam fine treek, but
| open him some more, and have de one
grand satisfacshion to see de dam hog
seek" "Go on" says the teacher.
Away went the knife, anil another hun
dred were soon in that ravenOus stomach,
together with a basket Of crackers, and
all the pepper AMI vinegar composing
Monsicur's stock in trade. The French
man stared, when the following dialogue
took place:
Yankee.-"Pli try some more, if You
please"
FreRchman.-"By gar, dis must be de
diable %
Yank.-"I'll trouble you for a few
more oysters"
French. -"Dcd iable!-why, you break
me up; l got no more oyster, no more
vinegar, no more biscuit-you serve me
one dem capare. Sacra! dem do Won
Yankee Doodlc-he hold two hundred
oyster, without scratching Won leetle bit!'
Ydnk.-" haven't come up to
your bargain, but as you run out of stock.
I'll call tomorrow and eat the balance"
1t is needless to say the Frenchman
did not open his shop the next day.

pack them In a cask or stone ware vessel,
giving each layer a sprinkling of salt,
and place some weight on them. After
remaining about week, prepare some
vinegar by adding to each gallon one
ounce of mace, cinnamon and black pep

vinegar scalding hot and pour over the

A Cure FOR ScRATCHEs.-Mr. Payne's
remedy for scratches in horses, induces me
to send the following receipt, which
have seen tried with the most satisfactory
results Procure some lamp oil, add a
little white lead, and mix both together
until it assumes a light straw color.
When the horse comes in at night, his
legs should be washed perfectly clean,
and rubbed perfectly dry. Then apply
the mixture, rubbing it well to the skin.
Two or three applications are sufficient to
effect perfect cure, no matter how bad
the case may be.

1t is a well known and incontrOvertable fact
that the use of Tobacco is the promoting cause
of many of the most severe

to which the race of man is subject, as careful
analysis and long and painful experience have
clearly proven that it contains certain narcotic
and poisonous properties most danSerOusin their
effects, which by entering into the blood, de-
range the functions and operations ofthe heart,
causing many to suppose that organ to be scri-
ously diseased.
Tobacco affects also the entire nervous sys-
TEN, manifestins itsSlf-as all who have ever
used the noxious weed will bear tcstmOny-in
Lassitudc, Nervous Irritability, Water Brash,
Dyspepsia, and many disorders of similar
character.
The Taste Restorative Troches
are designed to counteract these baneful influ-
ences, and have proven cOnpletly successful in

Being harmless in themselves, they exert ben

From Another correspondent

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 8, 1859.
Nessrs. Editors Two days have elaps-.
ed since the meeting of Congress, and as
yet, nothing has been done towards the
organization of the House, except one bal
lot, in which the members scattered their
votes in every direction. During the three
past days there has been nothing but
speeches. The theme is, THE Impending
Crisis" by II. R. Helper. We apprehend
that Mr.. Helpers book will have large
circulation, on the strength of it. 1t has
been extensively advertised by the Herald,
and now they are debating the contents
of the book. Ere you receive this, you
will hear that the House has been organ
lied with the aid of the anti-Lecompton
Democrats.
In the Senate, since its meeting, the de-
bate has progressed on resolution of Mr..
Mason, of Va, to appoint committee to
inquire into the causes and probable effect
OF the Harper's Ferry invasion, and wheth-
er any persons, not present, were imDlicn-
ted III the invasion, and what legislation is
necessary to prevent such occurrences in
future. Mr. Trumbull, of Illinois, offered
an amendment to the resolution, to the
effect that the committee also inquire into,
the facts relating toFthe seizure of the,Ar-
senal at Liberty, No., in 1855, by n band
OF men, and the arms used for the purpose
of forcing slavery upon Kansas. The de-
bate elected the fact that in the one case
the Arsenal was taken and used to make
Territory n slave State and in the other
case, the Arsenal was taken to make n
slave State, free. The cases are parallel.
Ifthe investigation of one is necessary So
Is the other. If the persons who seized
the Arsenal at Liberty, had met with con-
algn punishment, perhaps the raid at Har-.
pers Ferry would not have taken place.
Until the organization of the House, the
Senate can do nothing. So fur, the de-
bates in the Senate haze been extremely
interesting and important. The compiled.
ty, charged upon the Republican members
ofsthe Senate, with Brown, has been
promptly and fenrlessly repealed. It is
supposed that the resolutions Will be mas
sed to-day, However, without the amend-
msnt IN regard to the Arsenal mt Liberty.
lMr. Gwinn, gave notice in the Senate
on Monday, of a Pacific Railrond bill: Mr.
Powell, of bill to abolish the ranking
privilege, and Mr., Clay, h BILL to repeal the
fishing bounties; all of Which will he oE-
Tered when thccommittecs are forned.7
The cry of dissolution has been raised,
both in the Senate and in the House. On
Tuesday there were indications that a con-
Hict would occur in the House. Of which
