It was now thought that the Yankee had got enough of the race, and would with draw he tore the next heat. Contrary to all expectation, however, he persevered; and even offered to bet a thousand dollais on the issue of the race. "The fellow's a fool,' said one. "lie don't know which side his bread is buttered,'1 said another, "or else he would not risk any more money on so desperate astak" "He's safe enough there,"' said a third, "lor he has no more to risk." Here, however, every body was mistaken again, tor the pedler hauled out an old greasy pocket book and planked ths thousand dollars. It was covered of course. Ibjt 1 confess I now began to be staggered; and to suspect the Yankee was, after all, more knave than fool. 1 had no fears, however, for the purse. Southron was not horse to be distanced in one dav, and

In imagination I had grasp d it, ami was about putting it safely in nv pocket, when lo, and beholn I the peder's horse, which was behind all I he rest, n'ddcnlv shot forward as if the devil kick-

ed him on end, and stretching his neck like a rranr, won the heat by a head. Every body was astonished. "That" horse must be the dl himself, paid one. At least he hag the devil to back him " said a third "I was sure he would play you some Yankee trick before he pot through" Such were the observations

that passed from mouth to mouth. The Yankee in the mean time, offered to plank another thousand; but nobody would take the bet And it wa? well they didn't; for at the third heat, Sleepy David not only distanced every horse, but even came in a full quarter of a mile ahead o Southron himself. "There, by gauly!"' said the Yankee as he dismounted, "I'll take that ere little purse if you please, and the tothercool thou-and! ! knew well enough that your southern ho-scs couldn't hold a candle to Sleepy Davy " Uobj Water.

Every variety of Literature, from the most recondite works ot science, to the lighhr elusions of imagination, is thrown from the l'ress with inexhaustible rapidity, and the appetite for novelty is constantly supplied with the means of gratification. Nor is it alone in the accumulation of good books that this influence is exercised: its operation is felt with equal power in the floating publications the Periodical w orkof the times, Reviews, Magazines, Gazettes et id omne genxm increase and multiply with a'-toni-liinc: fertility; and, because of the cheapness with which they can be afforded, they are acces-ilile to every reader. Ono. of the mot striking and peculiar features in ti e character of the Literature of the ( resent day, is the adaptation of the periodical form to the publication of :t umlard and voluminous works Amonc the rat liest to adopt and pursue this method, we claim to be placed; and the flattering pntronai:e already bestowed on our "Novelist's Magazine,'' eive assurance that our experiment will he crowned with full success The principal object of the NOVELIST'S MAGAZINE, is to furnish a choice selection of approved novel, in such a form, and upon such terms, as may make them generally desirable and generally attainable, for this purpose, the best wotks, both of the present and pat, are chosen, and reprinted in a wy winch, w hile it enables us to turuiMi a large amount lor aj cheap rate, combines also elegance and ext el-1 Hence ot mechanical execution.
