LUCKY TOM. A secret worth knowing. Tom Spooner was the luckiest dog in the world, at least so said his old cronies. "He began like a poor good-for-nothing mechanic" as they would say, without a cent in the world without "a whole shirt to his back; half a sho3 to his feet arid with nothing but his hands to work with. And yet Torn Spooner is one of the most wealthy and influential men among us. Y hat - i.,k ,nrr fVii TV SnnnnpThas been. He went
among those who started in life with him, but who were now the frequenters of grog shops idle and dissolute, by the name of Lucky Tom. ; It puzzled his old friends not a little to account for his luck. "He had no rich relationsand though not extravagant, he was liberal. ' He was no skin-flint. Could he know some art of magic that would unbosom the treasures of the earth, and spread its gold before
him! He paid no attention to tne words ot tortune

If Tom had a lot of pork to dispose of, people were always willing to pay him a couple of cents more a pound than any other person! And, the dog! he was always lucky enough to pay his debts! lie was never so unlucky as to feel the gripe of a sheriff, or hear the creak of the j-til door. Tom married. "Why! this poor mechanic has taken the sweetest and most beautiful girl in the place. Who would have thought it! What a confounded lucky dog Tom Spooner is! He must have got the girl by
magic ye9, nothing less than magic! And then Tom's garden was a picture of neatness; the fences were never known to blow over, as did his neighbor's. His land was rich, while that of his very next door neighbors would produce hardly any thing but weeds! What does Tom put into his land! How he rises one step after another! If there is an important station to he filled, why Tom Spooner was always the man. lie could get a note discounted at the Bank without security. If any question between neighbors was to be settled, why Tom Lucky Tom was always sure to be called in as umpire. "And now I think of it," says one, "I never knew Tom to speak an ill word against his neighbor, which shows plain enough that there are many in his secret, and therefore that he dares not utter a word to their prejudice. He never drinks because to be sure, if intoxicated, some one will snatch his secret from him. He has learned his wife the way too. They both have the secret, lie says nothing hard of his acquaintances. He goes to church regularly but that is for mere appearance sake. He pores over books when he can And time he must be learning something more of his art of getting rich. He is laying up treasures. And then he always has a lamp in his work room late, and he is always the first up in the house which furthermore shows that Tom's mind is always bent upon his secret. He can't find time even to take a glass with his old cronies at the grog shop. He must have a secret worth knowing. It occupies his thoughts so much, that, he minds nobody's business but his own. And yet it does not weigh heavy on his mind he is always good naturcd, contented and happy; he has no quarrelling in his family. All is pleasant and agreeable. Nothing is out of place. Strange! strange! said these wiseacres, that Tom Spooner, that poor mechanic, who began with nothing, of whom every body prophesied
that he would come out of the little end of the horn, and who belie'ed nothing of it, but. stuck to his work, should have been so fortunate so lucky in life! Up early, late to bed, ever at work with hands or head! he must have a secret worth knowing! Ah! lucky dog! Lucky Tom! What can his secret be? Reader, what can his secret beV JS'utional Eagle. From the Newark. Daily Advertiser. Coining establishment broken up. On Monday afternoon, Mr. Constable Ball, of this placed, received information, confidentially confirming the suspicions heretofore entertained concerning the existence of a counterfeit foreign coin establishment in the neighborhood of Belleville. As the oifence is appropriately under the cognizance of the U. S. Courts, Mr. B. communicated the facts to the -Marshal of the District, Gen. Garcy, who procured the necessary writs, and with Messrs, Ball, Sheriff Robinson, Constable Jones, and Mr. James Keene, proceeded to the place yesterday morning, and broke up the mint, ariesting the principal, an English man by the name of Joseph Gardner, and John Campbell, one of his supposed accomplices.
They found in the cellar of the house, which is the last dwelling on the left side of the Newark and Belleville road before it enters the village, a complete and efficient dye sinking establishment, tools, presses and metals. Gardner and his wife
The late Prince Augustus of Portugal. This
younir Prince was probably one of the richest indi
viduals in Europe. His clear yearly income from his landed property in the Roman States and in
Bavaria was above 019,000 guilders, or 60,000
sterling. A still larger sum lie was saia to com
mand as interest from the immense capital he possessed (in different countries), left him by his father, the late Eusrene de Beauharnais, which had ac
cumulated during his minority. His Royal High
ness was born the 9th December, 1310, and was
only married a few weeks since to the Queen of Portugal. He has left four sisters, and one brother, whose names and ages areas follows: Princess Josephine, his eldest sister, born March 14, 1807, married June 19, 182-H, to Prince Oscar, Crown Prince of Sweden, by whom she has six children; Princess Eugene, his second sister, born December 2:3, 1803, married May 23, 1S26, to Prince Frederick of Hohenzollern Iledringen, nephew of the Duchess deDino.

From the Loudon Tlaies April 31st. i LATE FROM FRANCE. The Pans papers which we received at a late hour this morning by express, puis us in possession of the whole report of Saturday's proceedings in the Chamber of Deputies, by which we find that the debate on the American claims has been brought to a close. The bill, as amended by the
committee, proposing a grant of 25,000,000f., was
voted by a majority ot 2S9 against 1U7. Accoraing
to an amendment proposed by General v ahza, to
which ministers assented, and winch was agreed to
by the Chamber, the indemnity is not to be paid
until the French Government shall have satisfactory explanations with regard to the message of the
President of the Union, dated December 2, 1831.
Two other amendments one thai no interest
should be paid, and the other, that the interest
should only commence from the passing ol the bill, were both lost. From some observation in the Journal des Debats upon the pissing of this bill, il would appear thai Mr. Livingston is not expected to remain in Paris in his diplomatic chancier nor return thither as Ambassador, should he go to America. The Journal thus expresses itself "It is probable that Mr. Livingston will think proper to
be the bearer himself to his government of the ac-

Terrehaute, la. June 11. The Season. So far, the season has been one of the most extraordinary within our recollection. During the last twenty days we have had drenching rains torrents of it affecting the Wabash and smaller streams to such an extent as to threaten the worst consequences to the farms on the low lands. Already, we fear, much d image is done and the river still rising! (Thursday evening, June
0.) On Sunday night, the rain fell in torrents, and continued, with but slight intermission for eight hours. On many farms the sprouting corn is
entirely washed away, even, where the influence of
the river is not at all felt. Indet 1 every thing betokens a disastrous season to the grain grower. In addition to these misfortunes we may add, as a
matter local to those interested in the progress of
the National Road, that the work on it is nearly suspended, owing to its condition along the whole lino. The streams adjacent are out of their banks, and the road, in many places completely under water. This is a serious public loss, and a no less serious private one So the industrious individuals employed; as workmen thereon. Some estimate may be formed of the quantity of rain, from the fact, that a steamboat, of SO tons burden, actually made two trips as far up as Peru, several miles above Logansport! This hss been heretofore deemed impracticable. Courier.
