A Coop ONE.-During the recent session
of our Legislature, a proposition was under
discussion to change the time of meeting of
that body, from November to October
Among otIgsr objections was one so supreme
ly ridiculous, that it j is worthy Of notice 1T
was, that Raleigh was so sickly in October,
that no one from the mountains would be
willing to come here at that season! A
friend at our elbow says, that the member
must have been as hard run for an objection,
as was the little boy for not obeying his faith
er, as related in the following anecdote. A
deep snow was on the ground. Bob was sea.
ted in the chimney corner, and the fire no
burning freely, the old man said: Bob, cam
you go out and rustic up a few chips?' No
indeed" quoth Bob, while l am %rustline
up chips, | might rustic up a laundering biz
snake" The danger from snakes under tn
snow, is equally as probable a story, as Ra
leigh being sickly at any time.
