many stories told of Col, Ethan Allen,
OF revolutionary memory. The follow:
ing, though Old, Is not i bad one:
He was one evening at q party wherd
his well-known courage was the theme
|of conversation. He fears nothing,' 2
said one. .tAnd would wager any
amount that he would not hesitate to
go into the church.yard across the
way, and bring Z skull from one of the
open tombs there,'' added another. !
AFhe wager was agreed upon, and
!one Of the party sudd left the ap.
artment as Allen entered it. The ab-
sent bon-vi-vaet procured q sheet,
whitened his tace, and repaired to one
Of the vaults III question, with view
offnghtening the old veteran, should
he have temerity to further the wishes
ofthe company. ii Allen was made ac.
quaintcd with the nature ofthe wager
and, without. q moments hesitation,
said he would bring the required skull
and lay it on the table. He went to
the vault and laid : his hands OH one,
when his concealed acquaintance cried
out in g. sepulchral tone, s zAat's
miner st'Yery ,well;'' replied Allen
and 7ho picked up another. a." That.
n.ine too.o'y repeated the. same voice,
That can't be- true, returned the i'm,
perturbable hero, for no man can have
two skulls. Upon, this, he quicclkll'sey
LEFT the sanlt, with the naenae,.to NOR
in his hand; his friend following in no,
haste, half frightened out Of his senses
Allen, however, soonest reached the
: room el' where he had left his compan.
ions, and placing the skull upon . the
table, exclaimed" There, gentlemen,
there you have, it, but look at it quickly
for the fellow is close behind tha,

A NOCTURNAL SKETCH.

Thrice the brinded cat hath mew'd."-Maeosth.
Thou remember'st
Since once sat within my dotnltory,
And heard q tom cat on = bakers shed,
Cttering such q piercing, unharmonious breath,
That the logd babes grew civil at his song;
And certain men shot madly from their hearthS,
To stop gTlmalkin's music.
That very time | saw, but thou could'st not,)
Running between the bake house and the shed,
Richard all armed q certain aim he took
At the black minstrel, throned nv thu spout;
And loos'd q brick bat snartly from his hand,
As IL should stay hundred thousand cats;
But did see young X ichard's semi brick
Smash through the chasts panes of n neighbour
mousse;
And the sersnadIng pussy passed. on,
In feline trepdatlon, Dickey-free.
