r. t A Dog, Hone, and fish Story. "Tw6 friends of ours, 6tay ing a week orso at cne'of the watering places on the Gulf, were accustomed daily to rise at an early hour; and walk, (fisting implements in hand, to a bayou a mile in th tear of the hotel. Once there, being expert Anglers, they committed much devastation among the ranks of the finny tribe. - The walk through the piney woods to the trout and perch-stored stream was cool and pleasant enough at 5 o'clock in the morning, but the return trip on foot, by 9 or 10 o'clock, was acknowledged to be less agreeable, as it was warmer and more fatiguing. It will easily be imagined then that at the last fishing expedition our friends made, which took place a few days since, the suggestion proffered by one of them that they should borrow the one-horse cart of a carpenter who lived near by, and who was an acquaintance of theirs, was speedily accepted and put in execution. The carpenter had no objections ; the cart was prepared ; the little Creole mustang was harnessed ; our friends jumped into the vehicle and rattled off for the fishing ground in high spirits. Knowing that they would be able to bring back much more fish than usual, they took with them a large, stout champagne basket, which they designed filling to the brim with the scaly victims of the hook and line. wRy they rattled then, as we said before, and quietly but ploddingly followed them a huge mongrel dog, belonging to the carpenter. By that dos hangs a tale ! Vrrived near the bayou, the fishermen jumped out, tied the mustang to a saplin, gathered together their fishing rods, lines, bait, champagne basket,' spiritual, and other refreshments, and adjourned to the bank of piscatorial operations. The dog curled himself up under the cart and went to sleep ; the mustang slept without curling himself up. Our amateurs were very successful ; perch, trout, and other denizens of the bayou waters were made, will ye nill ye, to emigrate to the champagne basket, while the spirits in the black bottle were frequently called from the vasty deep and they came. After a couple of hours of pleasant and diligent labor, the champagne basket was filled, and the two confederates prepared to decamp. Smiling and anticipating an agreeable drive home, they packed up their booty and marched towards the cart. "You untie the horse while I put the basket in," said the chief fisherman to his comrade, and each proceeded to his task. Bow, ' Wow, wow I" and the big dog sprang out, and took his stand by the cart, growling, showing a formidable array of teeth, and barking in a terrible manner. As soon as either fisherman made a movement towards the cart, or the horse, the dog flew at him like a fury, and compelled him to a precipitate retreat. Coaxing, threats, pebbles and sticks thrown, were of no Use they only made the animal more ferocious. lie was evidently accustomed to act as guardian wuu ujosvci b bait nucu ujc uiasiei n9 uuseub, and the fellow (the dog, we mean,) was as ob stinately bent on preseving the property from all invasion. To depict the embarrassment of our friends at this ludicrous coup d'etat of canine invention would be impossible. There was no Use in trying to outwit the dog ; his movements were so rapid, and he so plainly had the advantage of position, that no sudden dash at the horse or cart Would be successful, without a total abandon- . rnent of all the baggage, equipment, and booty. One of the two adventurers proposed to do away with the dog by summary measures, but that' plan was speedily .abandoned. The other finally suggested that the basket of fish should be left behind, and that they should make "a hop, skip, and a jump," for the cart, where, once established, they could, easily defend, themselves from the canine enemy. But the other man swore he would rather give up his head than his fish. At length this last named individual went into the bushes to cut a long pole, wherewith to stir up the ferocious animal. The other expeditiontlJ l i :r.. i : j j w uuiiuuk a.uuo bu tt usiiiukf juu, turn up preached the horse's head with the design of cutting the rope and setting the pony free. In order to ditthe dog's attention, he pointed to vum jjtj, AanMivt-inuy m me precise direction here Tris companion had disappeared, and "sbood!" on the dog to attack an invisible ene- , my'.'

It was well for.hjm however, thathehad a coat, the tails of which were not over short. "Strange as it' may -seem,, this ludicrous affair ended in our friends being obliged to give up all hope of going home in the cart, and to return on foot, through the deep sand and broiling sun, burLhened with' all the Ashing tackle, and the ehamjiagne basket filled with fish. The dog re . mlaed master of the field, - and his master, the carpenter,bad ;td go after ,him in order to bring back the mustang; and! the cart. , -iFvcader; iinjrufar ai it'may ,seem; this'. queer tory is an o'er tone tale.

Baron -the late Nicholas Longbow waa great, ad our friend. Capt; John W.I Richardson is "not slow but the following from the "Yankee Blade" will do? ; J 1 -'...' Our Uncle Ezra has led a very remarkable life. .We heard him telling some most appalling ato nes of his younger days, last week, to a group ot gaping boys and astonished men. . had a gun," said the old trojan in that earn est manner so characteristic of .his colloquial attainxmnts, "which was the master thing lor balls that you ever did see. - I warn't more'n twenty years old it was as much as sixty years ago, I should think e'en a'moet anyhow. I tell you what, I could kill anything I wanted to.. I remember now, one day, I went into the woods down by the river 'twas a hot day in May I had my gun with me used to carry it as a gin'ral thing when I went to the woods didn't like to go without it it was. a royal gun- I hadn't got far into the woods before 1 see a grey squirrel i running up a tree i let buzzard tne bullets I . -1 , a a " , mm M . " w went tnrougn the aevu tore on a loot ana a nan of the bark of the tree ; besides making tne splinters fly like sin it then went through the next tree I heard an almighty buzzing inside, and t pretty soon saw something running out of the hole the ball made, and I swan to pucker, I got no less than fortv-six gallons and a half of honev I j 0 j out of that tree real ginoowin bees' honey none of your nasty Cuba nigger's sweat it was prime, I vow. "Well, sir, that ball ripped a crow's nest out of the next tree killed the old one and four young ones, besides a weasel that had just crawled up to get something to eat I van you never see anything like it. But it didn't stop thej; a few rods beyond it went through another' tree, and killed a tarnal great raccoon that was just running up on the further side, and then brought down sixteen pigeons from a great flock that was just coming down to pick berries in the woods. When 1 got to the river 1 found that it had killed eight wild geese that I had seen in the river the night before, which were iust rising up to fly as I fired. I could see em drifting down the stream. I was afraid I should lose 'em and so drove in after 'em without taking off my clothes and when I came out, feeling something cool, I vow, found hve dozen shad and sixteen alewives m the seat of my breeches." We stepped out just as the old gentleman ar rived at this point of his narration. We under stand the ball did further service on the opposite side of the river, but we choose to omit all but what we ourselves heard ; folks are apt to stretch stories when they tell them at second hand. AN EaiJIVOCAL EEYEEENCE. The following very ludicrous paragraph is from a late Scotch paper : " Long before there was any word of the dis ruption, and when the Church of Scotland was deemed by those who have since seceded from her communion as the glory of the whole earth, the following conversation ensued between his reverence, now m the i ree Church, and one of his hearers, in a rude parish, on a Sunday forenoon, immediately after divine service. " Weel, John, there's a fine day." "It is that," was the reply. " That's a fine pony you have got, John." " No a cannier or better-behaved creatur in a' the pans', savin' yersel," replied Hodge. " If it had not been Sunday," said the man of Scripture, " I would have been inquiring the price of it." " 'Deed, sir," replied the owner of the beast, " if it hadna been Sunday, as ye say, I wad hae said aught pounds." " Indeed," replied Mass John, " we will see about that to-morrow." " Vera weel, sir. That's a bonny stack o' hay ye hae i' the yard I wadna be na waur o' a puckle o' it ; and if it hadna been the day it is, I wad hae speered the price o' it, too." " I think the more of you for that, John, as it is just the way with myself ; for had it not been this hallowed day, I would have said nine-pence per stone. I might likewise have asked a number of questions such as how the market went yesterday in Arbroath, and what are you asking for your Ayrshire bull calf, and so on." " 'Deed, ay, sir ; but as we canna be tellin' that whate raise a shillin' and patatie aits fifteen pence the quarter, on sic a day as this, an' it wad be just as ill sayin that the bit caafies wirth therty shillins till onybody." " wild day, sir." " Good day, John." Thus ended the above equivocal reverence for the Sabbath, although the conversation ended to tne mutual worldly satisfaction of both parties. Interesting Fact. The hollow stems of plants present a beautiful instance of mechanical contri vance to dispose the limited quantity of matter in the stem to the greatest possible advantage; bo as to give me greatest sirengin wun tne least expenditure of material. By this hollow cylindrical disposition of the matter, an increase of strength is imparted to the vegetable structure equivalent 10 mat oi a soua stem oi tne same aiameter. The bones of animals and the feathers of birds are tubes or hollow trunks, combining strength with lightness, and constructed on the same principle. vvnen tne pniiosopner Xiaiaeo was confined in the dungeons of the Inquisition for teaching the heresy of the motion of the earth he was visited by a Catholic priest, who accused him of Athe ism. The persecuted and venerable sage met the accusation by the following beautiful and sub lime though simple and affecting appeal. He took from the floor of the dungeon on which he was lying a wheaten straw, and having explain ed the mechanical and scientific principles, shown in the structure of the stem, told the priest that this was evidence to his mind of the existence of a God. '""If.'.', said he.' "this wheaten1 straw. which supports an ear heavier that its whole stock, were made of the same quantity of matter disposed In a solid 'form, it would make but & poor thin and wiry stem, which would be snapped with the slightest breeze J its tabular form git es it the necessary' degree of; strength, and preserve i iruia oeiirucuon. .

The Dutchman very

-&e cesses . i - - So ver? little Giserescs to aavD- - a . dy save gold diggers and borrowers, whether the yield f gold mines be one ton a year or one thousand tons.;? Since ihe discovery of the gold in California, interest has fallen some 40 per cent, while rents hare gone up seventy-five. The ides that the quantity of comfort in the world depends on the quantity of money in it, is, therefore, all moonshine: , Double the present supply of gold, and we would double the price of every article for which Vol(f is Given in exchange so that it makes "no difference to nobody" whether half the mountains in California are composed of (reeious metais or not. Things will fend their evel, and if an hour's labor m California will produce an ounce of gold, the time will soon come when an ounce of gold will be given for an hour's cobbling. The quantity of labor necessary to produce an article determines its value. Make gold dust , as common as gravel, and it would oring the same price per peck. Sever Get Angry. It does no good. Some sins have a seeming compensation or apology, a present gratification of some sort; but anger has 0Qe. A u&n feels no better for it. It it really a torment, ana when the storm ot passion cleared away, it leaves one to see that he has been a fool, and he has made himself a fool in the eyes of others, too. Who thinks well of an ill naiured man; who has to be approached in the most guarded and cautious way ? Who wishes him for a neighbor, or a partner in business ? He keeps all about him in the same state of mind as if they were living next to a hornet's nest or a rabid animal. And as to prosperity in business he gets along no better for getting angry. What it business is perplexing and every thing "goes by contraries ' win a nt of passions make the winds more propitious, the grounds more productive, the markets more favorable? Will a bad temper draw customers, pay notes, and make creditors good natured ? An angry man adds nothing to the welfare of society. Since, then, anger is useless, needless, disgraceful, without the least apology, and found only " in the bosom of fools," why should it be indulged at all. Good Advice. There is much sense in the fol lowing, which although old, deserves, says a cotemporary, to be repeated once a year : "If anything in the world will make a man feel badly, except pinching his fingers in the crack of a door, it is unquestionably a quarrel.. No man ever fails to think less of himself after, than he did before one it degrades him in the eyes of others, and what is worse, blunts his sensibility to disgrace on one hand, and increases the power and passbnate irritability on the other. ue iruui is, me more quietly ana peaeeaoiy we all get on, the better for us, and the better for our neighbors. In nine cases out of ten the wisest course is, if a man cheat you, to quit dealing with him ; if he abuse you, quit his company : if he slander you, take care to live so that nobody will believe him. No matter who he is, or how he misuses you the wisest way is to just leave him alone ; for there is nothing better than this cool, calm and quiet way of dealing with the wrongs we meet with." AST The following practice, it is said, will "disgust' mosquitoes. Some of our readers, at this season, will have good opportunities for try ing the experiment : Tie a piece of flannel or sponge to a thread made fast to the top of the bedstead ; wet the flannel or sponge with cam phorated spirits, and the mosquitoes will leave toe room in aisgust.
