BAD PRACTICE AND A BAD HEART.-Cobbett who
lived for more than year at Hampstead Long Island
used sometimes to tell laughable stories at the expense
of the Quakers some of whom lived in bis neighborhood
there. The author of d" Recollections of Mr. Java
Bath clergyman gives the following received from
Cobbett's own lips:
was acquainted with a we-disposed young gentle
OF large fortune whose only fault the habit of
swearing-and habit that he often declared he would
give half his fortune to get rid Of This desire came to
the ears of Quaker who thereupon had an interview
with the young gentleman, and said:
81 can cure thee of that bad habit"
Whereupon the youth caught hold of the Quakers
hand, gave it hearty shake saying
"How you perfom this miracle?"
The reply
q can tell thee. | have heard that thou art going
this day to travel for period of six weeks Thou art
just my size nobody will know thee thou shalt come
to my house. put the cooked hat, the coat without
buttons, the knee breeches, and thou will find the
rangement of the dress will have such an effect on thee
when thou art going to talk that it will restrain thee
from swearing-as thou perhaps knowest my good friend
that the Quakers never swear.
The young man cheerfnlly assented to the proposal
and accompanied the Quaker to his house where after
changing his Clothes he took his departure in the garb
of Quaker, and went his way rejoicing. The period
OF the young gentlemans tour elapsed, the Quaker all
anxiety started to meet him. Having met him. be said
How art thou ~
The reply was
Every well'
Hast thou so much with that dress on thee?"
The young man, rubbing the sleeve Of his coat re-
pied:

among the speakers.
the slaves not the only proper subjects of prayer
"They ought to pray (said hey for Gov Wise He did
not want to be misunderstood, but he would compare
Gov. WISE of Virginia, to POntius PLATE; and if he
had wife he hoped she would be troubled in her dreams,
as Mrs. Plate was until she went to the Governor
where could not reach him, and begged of him
to have nothing to do with that Just man. Posi-
bly, when the Governor heard of the vast crowds
which going to the public spectacle of colored
hanging in the forenoon and white in the alter
noon, he would be afraid of tumut which he could not
stop, and wash his hands of the whole matter. Per-
haps the people would say, they said of old: ellis
blood be upon and our children" If so, he begged
he might not be one of them. Perhaps prayer might
turn the heart of Governor WISE the heart of Alias
huerus turned it little thing for God to turn.
And who could tell, that Paul was converted by the
meeting streams of prayer that followed him from Jeru
salem, and that met him from the Christians that he
went forth persecute Gov Wise might be convert
ed, and become apostle of freedom as Paul was Of
the Gospel Perhaps prayer might compel him to call
the Legislature together, if necessary, to stop that
cutOn."
Thank Heaven the population of the Metropolis of
the country is not composed wholly of such blasphemers.
If it were, Union, cemented though it be with pa
triot blood, could not last another day.

of Virginia and Maryland have been very prompt in
ordering Northern pedlars out OF the States. A few
days since suspicion rested Dr. Boyd who has been

His attention called to the fact that shoe was
missing from one of his horses and while he had gone
with the horse to blacksmith shop, the opportunity
taken to inspect his team Amongst his traps was
noticed obong box with suspicious holes bored
in the cover. Boyd seeing that inspection was going
on, came from the blacksmith shop in hurry, and
sured the searches that the box contained nothing but
French goods" They choose to look for themselves,
and ripping of the box cover To- there were ensconsed

and all things necessary to enable the darkes to keep

in it, but not to sit up Neither of these slaves
are the property, as stated, of Clark Mills but the
woman belongs to Mr.. Howell, who rents place of
Mr.. Mills. Mrs. Howell, of Washington, went before
Justice Goddard this morning. and testified that SIZE had
visited the Westminster JAIL and recognized the negro
