Le Courricr Francois, May 31, 1S34. . The original of the preceding notice was written and published in Paris, where everv

one knew, or was supposed to know, where

ricpus was situated; ana any allusion therefore to its locality, would have been regarded as invidious. In futnre time, to travellers from

the United States at least, few places, if any other, will be visited with more interest and awe than will the graves of Lafayette and his

lamiiy. jational Intelligencer. As soon as the death of Lafaette was made known in France, addresses nf mnHrlpnrr

were remitted from an immense number of places to his son, George Lafayette. Many of

these addresses are well written; some rather too much, and others entirely too much, inflated; but of all, amongst the best, if net the very best, came fromlJrioude,in Upper Loire, the native town of the departed General.

Use of Tomato, in quickening the action of the abdominal viscera Like most persons of studious or sedentary habits I often am more or less incommoded, and my health impaired, by inaction of the stomach and bowels, so as to be under the necessity of resorting to medicine, principally cathartics. In order to enable our readers perfectly to appreciate what I am about to say of a remedy, this state of the bowels is always in some degree accompanied with a sense of straitness of the chest, and besides a general uneasiness and lassitude, with the head ache, or some degree of pain in the region of the liver. It seems to me a recurrence of those symptoms that accompany attacks of what is called by the physicians, a liver complaiut, to which I have been a good deal subject. The appetite instead of being keen becomes imnprfprt.OTift, - noni;n. uf

uiuigesnon, to constitute health, for which cathartics are only a temporary relief, not a remedy. The common Tomato,used in making gravy, at once removes this taste of the mouth, in a little time quickens the action of the liver, and removes all the above noticed svmntrtmo r,A

feelings; I regard it is an invaluable article of ;f , -

With me it has always been my object of solicitude, to find out uch diet; as should supercede the necessity of medicine Except in pickle, which I cannot use, I cat the Tomato, in every mode of dressing, and find it perfectly adapted to my wants. In the hope of being of some use toothers, these facts are slated V. Y, Farmer.

A Duei The noted Silas Dinsmoor, who was once a Custom-House officer at the South, and refused to give passage to General Jackson with a drove of negroes without some other passport than the pistols which the General showed him, is a native of Windham or Dery, N. H. He was once dinning at a Hotel in Kentucky, in company with some high blooded Kentuckians who took occasion at the dinner table to outrage the character, for courage and bravery, of the Yankees of New England. One of them whd sat opposite Dinsmoor, went beyond his fellows in this species ofabuse, until Dinsmoor's choler rising so high that he could stand it no longer, he threw his fork into the face of the fellow, and told him he was a Yankee himself and ready to prove that they were not destitute of courage. He was challenged instanter. He accepted the challenge, and as it belonged to him of righ t to name the time, place and weapons, he said the time and place should be then

- u,e weapons iiorse pistols and dis tance, across the dining table. All thin were arranged in a few moments. In snapmgup the Kentuckian got the first fire. But he was so agitated that, although Dinsmoor sat like a statute, to receive his fire, he only slightly wounded hi.n. Dins roor then deliberately raised his pistol, but the frightened Kentuckian fainted and fell from his chair. His friends raised him into his seat; Dinsmoor lowly raised his pistol and again the Kentuckian fainted and fell back. His friends

What's in Name? We haVfi ever regarded the selection of a name for a child, as a matterof considerable importance, as we believe it sometimes has an influence upon the future fortunes of the individual. We have often noticed names which we regarded as preposterous, but have seldom met with any more truly so, than the following, which a friend of ours informs us are the identical names of a family of children in his neigborhood. One little girl bears the romantic appellation of Belvidere Hyderella Deidamia Celestiella Adelaide Wales Hutchkins. Her youngest sister is denominated Pharis Parasina Celia Amelia Mary Abigail Hutchkins. The brother of these hopeful daughters is styled Daniel Horatio Leander Constantine Wales Hutchkins. The same gentleman informs us that another child in his acquaintance bears the following appellatives, partly borrowed from the name of the wife of the founder of Pennsylvania Julia Elma Anne Maria Springet Penn Estes. All these, however, must yield, we think, to the following, which a lady on her honor assures us are the real names of two children. The first, Hannah Maria Rebecca Sophia Hazard wizard Penelope Gardner. The second, Caroline Adeline Jane Eliza Jefferson Jackson Beersheba

Collins. As the horticulturalists exclaim of

their mammoth vegetable, so we say, "beat this!" Boston Traveller.

Pleasures of the World. I have run the silly rounds of pleasure and have done with them all. I have enjoyed all the pleasures of the worjd, and I apprise them all at their real worth, which is in truth very low; those who have only seen their outside, always overate them, but I have been behind the scenes, I have seen all the course pulleys and dirty ropes which move the gaudy machines, and I have seen and smelt the tallow candles which illuminate the whole decoration, to the astonishment and admiration of the audience. When I reflect on what I have seen, what I have heard, and what I have done, I can hardly pursuadc myself that all that frivolous hurry and bustle of pleasure in the world had any reality; but I look upon all that is passed as one of those romantic dreams which opium commonly occasions, and I do by no means desire to repeat the nauseous dose. Chesterfield. Fashion. The English "Gentleman's Magazine," for the last m&nth, proclaimed that a "shabby d ress was the height of fashion ;" and that "the more thread-bare a man's coat was the more fashionable was it considered." We are by no means partial to the adoption in our republican country of foreign manners ordress, unless they be such as to exactly suit our condition. Of this character is the above sensible fashion of wearing and respecting thread-bare coats. We earnestly hope it may reach this country, and be generally adopted. It would form an era of rejoicing for the whole tribe of novelists poets, and paragraphists. Those that now go creeping about, like a sheared wether or a plucked gander among the well-clad flock, would then be able to hold up their heads and bleat or shout with the best of their neighbors. We here move, and hope the motion will be carried nem. con., that' the fashion shall, when adopted in this country, be more comprehensive than it is in England. No good reason can be named, why the same respect which is shown to a thread-bare coat, should not be extended to thread-bare pantaloons, buttonless vests, and four-year-old hats. For the sake of a particular friend of oure, we hope this may be done. We wish it to be understood, that the above suggestion is made feelingly. Cin. Mir. A TABLE.
