! 90 THE CHANGE.

Old Douglas had in the course of hu-
man events to 60 to town not over one
hundred miles from his plantation, to
transact some business as he said, but
in reality to see his friends, the British,
(the town being in their hands for short
time,) and have the satisfaction of seeing
the country in the possession of his king.
as he calledA George the III, and perhaps
have his loyalty praised to crafty some
thing like vanity in his bosom
Now there happened to be about the
same time, certain Major, roaming a.
round over the country pillaging indis-
criminately from Wings and Tories, and
as the fates would have 1t, this loyal Ma
jor wandered around, until he came to the
plantation of the loyal Douglas. Here he
found q fine drove of stock, and with sun
dry fine fat beef steaks looming up in the
future, making his mouth water, he de.
clared he iwould have them, notwithstand.

Sam, who declared that massa was Gas

said Major, as he had often done before,
without the least scruple or qualm of con-
science. or any offer of payment drove
away the entire stock.

Poor Places to Live at.

There is place in Maine so rocky that
when the Down Casters plant corn, they
look for crevices in the rocks, and shoot
the grains in with musket; they can't
raise ducks there no how, for the stones
are so thick that the ducks can't get their
bills between them to pick up the grass
and the only way that the sheep
can get at the sprigsiof grass is by grind
ing their noses on algrindstone. TsYaz Tel
e But that amt a circumstance to a
place on the Eastern shore; there the land
is so poor that it takes two kildeas to say
;,kildes;" and on clear day you can see
the grasshoppers climbiup a mullen stalk,
and look with tears in their eyes over q
fifty acre field; and the humble bees have
to go down on their, knees to get at the
grass, all the mosquitoes die of starva-
ton, and the turkey buzzards have to
emigrate.
But there is county in Virginia which
can beat that-there the land is so sterile
that when. the wind is at the northwest,
they have to tie the children to keep them
from being blown away; there it takes six
frogs to see man, and when the dogs
bark they have to lean against the fence,
the horses are so thin that it takes twelve
of them to make shadow, and when
they kill beef they have to hold him m
to knock him down! o. s7''.ae '7eio2 ?os
But oh!-there is q region in Jersey
saith Nose Draper, where they held a two
weeks jubilee in the churches, because i,
was announced that fresh blade of grass
had sprouted in the southern part Of tn.
county. There the natives. once murder
ed a traveller for the sake of half gin
gerbread cake, which be was rumored tc
have in his pocket, and there, too, they
turned . man "out Of meeting" because
after q visit to Philadelphia, he reported
that while in that city he had had AT on,

THE HEROES.

The news Of the attack on the widow
Mays house and the sudden appearance
Of Marion's men, defeating the design of
the rufians, excited different feeling in the
families of the neighborhood. The Tories
felt the force of Marion's name, and kept
themselves quiet for fear of meeting the
same treatment; and the Wings openly re-
joiced that there was leader whose very
name, struck terror to evil doers. y 80
