No COMPLIMENTS IN PRAYER.-We have
heard some prayers which were designed to
effect IT, hearer rather than to reach heav-
en-. The following characteristic anecdote
of John Randolph is keen rebuke to the
practice: ..
In spell of repentance and sickness, he
was visited by administer who, at his request
prayed for and with him. The minister
began in this wise: "Lord, our friend is
sick. Thou knowest how generous he was
to the poor, and what eminent service he
has rendered to his country, and how he is
among the honored and great men of the
earth" a..
"Stop, STOP" said the inpatient Ran
dolpb, ono more Of such stuff, else the
Lord will damn US both" .s.-

ties Of creditors, or to draw the portraits of
burgomasters. have gained for myself
recognized place in the great. world of art.
But the recollection of that strange noctu.
raj sketch has never become less vivid !;
sometimes I lay aside my brush and pallet,
and muse on for hours together.
How was it that crime committed by
man whom did not know, in place which
l had never seen, was reproduced by my
pencil, even in its minutest details q? Was
it by chance? No. And yet, after all,
what is chance but the effect of some cause
which escapes US? Perhaps Schiller was
right when he said, "Tbis immortal soul
does not share the exhaustion of matter du-
ring the sleep of the body; she unfolds her
radiant wings, and flies forth, God knows
whittier! What she then does, none can
tell, but inspiration now. and then betrays
the secret of her noctural warderings" -
Who knows? Nature is more daring in
her realities than Imagination in her fan
cies.

years, went to Kentucky, where I married.
I afterward went to Philadelphia, and thence
to plantation in Louisiana, where I was

FoUND-THE AUTHOR OF JUNIUs LET.
TERs.-Mr. Fl. Coleby writes to the Iondor
Telegraph: 1t may not be uniuteresting to
many of our readers to know that, whilst
arranging some papers for Mrs. Ryves,
preparatory to her case coming on in No
vember next, in the Probate Court, aeci-
dentally found, among other manuscripts,
the following:
London, Jan. 8, 1772.-Lord Chatham
hereby agrees to indemnify Doctor James
Wilmot for all the risks and dangers that
the said Doctor J. Wilmot may be subject
to in the continuation of the "Letters of

MAKING TREASON ODIoUs.-On this
subject the Louisville Democrat we'll says
Much is said of "making treason odious"
by the execution of Davis and Others
History shows that the execution of rebel
who has made manly Stand up fight, does
not make his cause odious, but rather,
through the natural grace and piety Of man.
kind, lends it a sympathy, and admiration
not its own. The world will censure, and
look upon the act as founded in timidity.
1t will be said our institutions were SO weak
there was one man We dared not let live
We can, therefore, see no good that can
possibly spring from his execution, and
much evil.

How THE WESTERN INDIANS FIaHT.-
A correspondent of a Cincinnati paper; des
cribing recent attack on Government
train on the Western plains, has the follow
ing as to the Indian method of fighting.
They rarely, if ever, attack except on
orse.back; and each man keeps his horse
on the run, riding generally In circle, so
as to avoid shots, discharging in the mean
time showers of bullets and arrows, and
shouting to stampede the animals. When
a weapon is pointed at one of them, he shell
ter himself almost entirely by hanging over
one side of his horse, and from this position
continues firing. Dashing suddenly upon
train in this manner, they can often dis
charge great number of shots before the

THE INsURREcTIoN IN JAMAIoA.-The
Panama Star and Herald, of October 3Ist,
gives the following particulars of the iusur.
rection among the blacks of Jamaica, CLEAN:
ed from Jamaica papers: -.
"George W. Gordon, of Kingston, a
principal mover of the insurreotion, and
Paul Boyle, had been caught and were be-
ing tried by court martial, with Revs. j. q.
Cole and James Roach, together with most
of the leading men in the move. The ma.
rooms Of the island are found true, loyal
men, and have done all in their power to
eave lives and quell the insurrection. The
outrages committed find no parallel, and the
evidence found upon some of the prisoners
shows the intention of the insurrectionists
to spare no white people, but to slaughter
all indiscriminately. The rebels are dealt
with in the most summary way. The cap.
ture of the leaders has dispirited them, and
many are surrendering. The Watchman'
Office was closed, and those connected with
it arrested on the charge of publishing Sc
ditious articles. Her British Majesty's
storeship, Urgent, was dispatched to Bar.
BADGES for troops, but there are mo appre.
tensions felt of much further trouble"

A BAD SIaN.-It would appear thas the
negroes in town are greatly in want Of work.
A load of wood was thrown in front Of our
Office the other day, and in the course Of a
few hours we had ten applications from able
bodied freedmen to cut it up. These ne
groes have left good homes in the country
where they had plenty to eat, and are lying
about town in idleness, only occasionally
getting a little job of work. The farmers
need laborers-many have had to discon-
tinue farming for the want of labor-while
hundreds and thousands of able.bodied ne.
gro men are lounging aboat the towns and
cities. The legislature must take some ae-
ton which will compel negroes who do not
properly belong to town and have no homes
in it, to leavO and go to tho country for
work. Charlotte Democrat
