THE CONJUGATING DUTCHMAN. We know not wbere the following story came from; but as it gives a droll picture of a methodical and persevering Dutchman, it may not prove nnentertaimog. "Two English gentlemen once stepped into a coffee bouse in Paris, where they observed a tall, odd looking man who appeard not to be a native, sitting at one of the tables, and looking around with the most stone-like gravity of countenance upon every object, boon after the two Englishman entered, one of them told (be other that a celebrated dwarf had arrived at Pari. At this the grave looking personage above mentioned opened his mouth and spake: 'I arrive,' enid he, 'tbou arrives!, he arrives, we arrive, they arrive.' Tbe Englishman whos remark teeming to have suggested this mysterious speech, stepped up t the stranger and asked. Did you speak t , Sit?' i speak replied tbe stranger, 'tbou speakest, be speaks, we speak, you speak, they speak ' 'How is this!' aid the Englishman, 'do you mean to insult Ihe? The other replied, I insult, thou insulttst, he insults, we insult, you insult, they insult.' 'This is too much,' said the Englishman; 'I will have satisfaction if you have any spirit with your rudeness, come along with me.' To this defiance the imperturbable stranger replied. 'I come, thou comesr, be comes, v?e come, you come, they cem;' and thereupon be aroi" with great coolness, and followed bis challenger. In those dxys, when every gentleman wore a sword, duels wtr speedily AjiMtrtiB(t Th. inl inln nAilK.;n. .1 ley, and the Englishman, unsheathing his weapon, said to bis antagonist, 'Now, Sir. you must fUbt me.' 'IfighV replied the other, drawing bis sword, 'thou fittest he fijhta, we fight' bere he made a thirst 'you fight tbey fight;' and hsre he disarmed his adversary YVrll? Said the Englishman, you have the best of it, and I hope you are satisfied. ' I am satisfied.' A,d the original sb-athm bis sword. ihonrtl

former, the founder of Ihe profession, and the latter, its ornament, as well as that of the cause of science and freedom are condemned to work their way through life, the most beneficial of the public's servants, and on whom she showers the least of her favors. It may be said, and we believe it is generally considered that printers are mere mechanics, artists, or automatons if you like it better. They are artists; they are mechanics,

and we are proud that they are so; but as such, as men who obtain their susten ance by honest efforts, it is arrogating little to them, or to ourselves, to say, that they stand pre-eminent in intelli gence and a just conception of their rights, as men and citizens, among nu merous classes of their fellow mechanics; and there are but few of the "learned Thebans" of the day, but can find equals among the humble and too much neglect ed profession of printers. Every class of people indeed, have their great men, who have some time or other, done honor to themselves as men, as well as to the several professions of which they were members; and who will long remain among their fellow craftsmen, like the founder and ornament of printing, a sort of patron saint: but none can show such a phalanx of genuine talents, and genuine of the first order, as that of which we have the honor of being humble members. Vanity is not a besetting sin with u$, though, perhaps, on this one point, our feelings, and a sort of professional pride, may have led U9 to cUim for our brethern of "The pica and composing stick," rather too much credit: and while we would not derogate from the good name of our brother mechanics, we could not, and express what we felt, say less than we have. There have been many, and within the circle of our acquaintance, persons whose daily sustenance rose only from their mechanical labor printers whose characters would justify all that we have said; and to whom the oft-repeated quotation from Gray, would apply with peculiar and more than common propriety : ' Full many b gem of purest ray serene, The 0 ark unfa homed caves of ocen bear; Fu l imny a fljwer is born to blush unseen, And waste ita sweetness on the desert air" Counsellor Phillips has prepetrated another bull. At the Salop Assizes, Mr. Campbell apologized for a client's not having paid the expenses of a former trial, in consequence of hi? having paid the (hit of nature; to which Mr. Phillips replied ktIt was the only debt he had ever paid in. his lifer1 EXTRACT FROM SAMBOES SERMON.

A methodist preacher once observed that several of his congregation had fll?n aslero. those who sleep under tbe ministry of tbe holy gospel Another preacher fiading himself in tbe samp unpleasant situation with bis audience, suddenly stopped in his discourse, and addressed hirueelf in a whispering tooe to a number of noisy children in the gallery. "Silence, silence, children." said he: "if you keep such noise you will wake all tbe old folks." A wag passing a livery stable one day, in front of which several horses were tied, stopped suddenly and grd at tbem for some time with a phiz indicating the utmost astonishment, and then addressed tbe owner who was standing near, and asked bim "if be made horses!" Said tbe knigbt of the broom and curry comb. 'no! why do yon ask such a question?' 'Only', replied he, "because I observe you have lever alrames set up!" Passing Time. In the course of my travels. I hare seen many a promising yoong man gradually led to dissipation, gambling, ruin, merely by the want of means to make a solitary evening pass pleaaantly. I earnei'ty advise everv youth thtt quit tL-jt abode of purity, peace

and delight, hs parental borne, to acquire a taste for reading and writing. At every place where he may reside long, either in England or on the continent, let him study to make his apartments as attractive and comfortable as possible, for be will find a little extraordinary expense, so bestowed at tbe beginning, to be good economy in the end; let him read the best books in tbe language of the place in which he lives; and above all, let hhn never retire to rest without writing at least a page of original comments nn what be has beard in the day. This habit will teach to observe and discriminate, for a man ceases to read with a desultory and wandering mind, which is an utter waste of time, when be knows that an account of all the information which he has gained must be written at night. Clayton's Sketches. Moloch Tbis horrid idol of tbe ancient Ammonites and Canaanites, and afterwards of tbe Carthagenians, is said to hive been made of brass, hollowed within, and being thoroughly heated like fire in a furnace, it was prepared to receive its victims, which consift.nl of children. The idol which extended out declining arms, in the act of receiving; so that when the human victim was presented, it dropt down into tbe devouring furnace. It was a custom for parents to select tbe most lovely of their children. In the mean time, to drown the cries of the victims, various kinds of musical instruments were sounding during tbe whole shocking scene.

We publish the following anecdote of General Jackson, from JNiles Register, of October 26, 18! 6. VY hile General Jackson was prosecuting tbe Creek war, there was a mutiny in his army, occasioned by a want of bread. One company actually resolved on quitting the General and returning to their homes. The General was apprised of their intention tbe evening before they intended to march off, when he sent for the officers and invited them to breakfast with him the next morning. Tbey accordingly came to his quarters, and found him under a large oak tree, eating acorns. Sit down, gentleman, said he, this is my breakfast, and all that 1 have to give you. The officers were so well pleased with the visit, that they returned and persuaded the soldiers to continue during tbe campaign. Neither Drunk nor Sobtr An accident happening to a stage-coach, thro' carelessness, the following conversation took place the next morning between tbe guard and a 6table boy: "A bad jb that of Bill's last night! ho wa it?" Why, some says Bill was asleep" r'Was be lushy?" "No, ha warn't drunk nor he warn't sober; the liquor was a dying in him like." Mind your punctuation.
