To My oU frieml Mr. D i iht nf the Acre York Daily d,iz'trtiser. Washington, March 8, 1834. Ever since I wrote to you about them nassinations an I btimstone and murder letter I have been looking en to see how our folks are to work their way out ot the scrape thev have got the Government in, and I did'nt mean to say another word about it But as things are only gettin worse and worse I telled the Gineral for the last time, if some change did'nt lake id tee I most quit, for I cpnld'nt stay here and have my advice put aide jist to suit ether !'o'ks notions. wdVn I see as plain as I could see day light the hull country go in all to smash. The Giieral wa considerable struck up when I talked of leavin n him, an I he asked tne where I was poin. Well ?:iv I (initial tint is pritty tuff to tell, for I don't see now where i can gn to git rid of this ph'gy trouble, for its? a little worse thru, cholera morbu, a body ceub.l git away from that, but thihas got now everv where, and when it gits hoj.j Kamftro and L 'doom stands no chance with it I am afraid Maj-ir say? the Gi'ieral. you art' changin ynur poii tics. Well stya I. Gineral it may be o, t r a man mv as well change his teeth, says I, i!" by keeping his old set he can get tiothin to bite with etn. And now. says I Gineral jest lets you ar.d I look into this Experiment of ymrn an. I see where it is gom to land us. fo vavs I, it I dont miss my goess, we shall torn heels over head to rights, and there is no tc-ilin whhh eend will come down first. And I dont see says I, what good is to come on't even supj osin we come clown feet lirt. How, s i s I, are we gom to satisfy lit is everlastin batch of folks with all their children who are now suttenn all about the country by this plagy rxi enment? You might as well, savs I, try to make the folk believe it will be all the better for em hereafter, when they git used to it, to take elT their shoes and stockins and go barefoot now, and tell em tint's ihe ony way, so tht in war time every man will be ready to rtnrcb and not bother the country to provide shoes and storkins tor em. And its pretty much fo now with this plg no Bank Experi rnent. Folks have got u notion that they can't git on without '.auks; and they knowtoo there must be astioogoue to regulate ell the small ones, jet like the balance wheel in a watch, tor without that, says J, the little wheels wili ullgowiz, and break all to bits, and ouil nevet know the time of day no moie than a sua dial will teil in a snow stoim. And then, as I, to talk about hard money an I that there mu-t'nt be no other kind of money Why, says I, you might I as well tell folks to go hack to shoe buck! les sigin, when good leather strme is! ht
er and better. Now suppose, sa)s'do that, I'll break every man in trade.
I, a merchant w ants to send money from hete t a New Orleans to buy cotton, or to China to buy tea, and supposin, says 1, an old Revolutionary Soldier lino away back in the country sent here tor his pen-j si iii, and he was too old to come tor it hitmtlf, how then say s 1 would we maa - .tgc to git this money in the safest way possible away to New Orleans to buy cotton, or to China to buy tea, or to the hands of this old Soldier. If you send hard dollars, says I, ma ship and she sinks its gone to all etetnitj, and if the pirates take her iN worse et,andit you send it by mail Major Barry w'd have to make viie w orse contracts than w e have alrea dy. This slumps me considerable, and ( have been looking into it ever since this Bank war bee m, and the ony way, says I, is t have a Bank that every body has got cor.h. fence in, aud have it as strong ;i all naturand known every where, and then we can git rouad all these storms and pirate-, ami labor ef biggin hard money about. And we don't want no better Bank than we've got now to do ail this if we nl let it alone. Ami the best proof that H is str-'g emit, is that with all our hammenn at it w $ho.-k an atom on't. r-o l te tone we light agio it the worse
it is for hc Tropic who want the money I
this Bank owns, and Hie Hani; wants to lend its monev, for that is its business, and when we tell the people that Squire Biddle i the cause of makin money catce they know thatj all uinkum fiddle. IVow says I Gineral suppose you was appointed to defend the country agin an enemy, that wascomin here from abroad, and the enemy say 10,000 men, and they wouldit tell you where they were going to land; hut ou was obliged every week to tell them wheie your men was why says the Gineral IM go right down to New Orlean? and whip em jest as I did afore: but buppoee savs I they wouldn't go there agin, but kept dodgin about along the coact from one end to tether, how then savs I then savs the Gineral Pd j j call out every man in the country, and Td have 10.000 men in every fort from New Oileaus to Downingville well says I that 1 suppose would be the ony way and if it was in harvest lime it would be bad work for the crops I coubPnt help that says the Gineial IM defend rny country thro1 thick and thm well says I, that's pretty much what Squire Biddle is arler, he dont know where we intend to attack his lank, and we make him tell us every week jest how the Branches stand as to strength, and we have teliM him eel break him if we can, and so as he wouldn't he doing his duly if he didn't defend his Bank, he is obliged to keep every point as strong as he can, and so a good deal of money is idle jest as a good many militia men wl be idle in the war we'd been talking on there aint one grain of difference eay? I, and everv atlatk w make agin the Batik ony make things worse, the people about the country see this now, ind the hull country is sullerin now t-.iysj I Gineral, I'm gittin asham'd on't myself,! we have gt into a scrape, I should like j to git out on't, and git joumii on't, at any j rate, say s I, I'llju-t pack up my w and ; git my bundle ready, for as things are gomg it wont do to stay here. The Gineral got cvmisi JeraUc nlcd at this, and slatted round a spell, teat h- oon ee that didn't do no good tor r. c..' t: me whilslin vankee ior(;!t and so to
rights says he, Maj u , i!t ; ever teil ,ouj Cure for Somnatnbulism. A French authat rakoon storv d uiii - : t the bee treei lb r mentions a certain cure for Somnam-
and the apple orciiaid - imm says I not as I knows on, but I shouf! uke to heai it and so the Gineral ot down and tell'd a piagx long story about hi- goin out once with a irang of his rugger a rackoonin it wa jest arler the last jngen war and folks about the country was beginuin to think that Gineral Washington was a tool to htm it was'nt longalore he tree'd a rac (soon, and he set the niggers to work cut tin down the tiee, this tree stood light a I :ng side an old farmer's apple otr h rd nd afore it wa halt cut down a man cum ilongan l askfd the Gineral what he was irter and lie tell'd him , why, say lu Gin eral you ate barkin up the wrong tiee this tune, tor I jest see that rakeen jump lo the next tree, and atore this lie i a mde off theie in the wood- the Gineral t ll'd him he was mistaken, and jest then Ihe old fat me r cum out and he uked the Gineral what on earth he was cuttin down that tree for, that it was one of the est bee trees on his farm, and had supplied his family and the.-neighbor round with honey for a good many seasons, and the bees was jest swaruuu agin in it. And with that, the Gineral gt wrathy, and telled the niggers lo cut away, ami
presently down went the ti;e, nghtlbled with an infirmity somewhat similar
across the orchard tence; and says the Gineral if the rackoon uitil there. ero on and cut down the apple orchard till you find him; and the niggers kept at it, but afore they had cut down many trees the old farmer larnt wisdom, and he come to the Gineral, and tell'd him he was right ater nil. for the rackoon was jist where he thought he was, and he had jumped from one apple tree to another, and a now in his cellar, and wi'h that, the Gineral he called off the Nigger, and ted'd Ihe farmer it na- well he found the rac koeu as soon as he did, for he'd a cut down every tree in his orchard, and so I ttli'd him, says the Gineral, he might keep the rackoon for laruin widom. Now, says 1, Gineral. what was your notion: why says he. Major, if I had'nt alone ii-t so, it would a gone all round the country thai 1 know'd nothin about rak koonm ; and it's jist so with the bank, if I give up my notion now, folks will say 1 know nothin about bankin. and afore I'll frem one eend of the country lo the oth er. I II let tollis know afore I am done, that Andrew Jackson know s as much about bankin, as he doe of rakkoonin Well, says I, Gineral, I don't see how you git sich notions . Nor I don't nother, j Major, says the Gineral, but it has always j ben my way when I git a notion to stick to it till he dies a natural death and the !moie folks talk agin my notions the more J stick to cm Now says I, Gineral; that . was a pretty good story you've been tel in ; and I'd like to tell you one and the ;Gineral he tilled his pipe, and I began. A spell ago, says , my obi Grand-mother Danforth bv my mothers side von know, says I, Gineral, my mother was a Danforth and so I tell'd the Gineral as far as 1 could all about the hull Danfoith family, and gitting that strait, I go; back agin to my old grand-mother Dan forth. Well, says I, she owned an old hen that was one of the curiestest critters that ever cluck'd This old hen was never remarkable for lay in eggs but she wa a master hand in hatchiu on em my old grandmother Danforth ued to keep this old critter always busy, and as fast as she hatched one batch she'd stick rjnijqr het
another it got 0 at last all the other
fowls about me piace woum uuuie " slide themselves in alongside this old hen and lav their eggs in heT nest sometimes duckssometimes geese and sometimes, dunghill fowls and bantums, it made no odds which: this old hen would hatch em all out, and was jest as tickled every mornin when the vouug ones vtould crawl out of the nest as though she had laid the eggs herselfand was all the while ruffled and rumi led, and ready for a fight -acd so I tell'd Ihe Gineral a good long story about this old hen and about her troubles and how the other fowls used to impose upon her, and so forth. The Gineral was a good deal taken with thi story and he has been tellin on't to Mr. Van Buren, and Amos Kindle and Ihe rest of the Cabinet and one on em came to me to know vvnai Darin wiai siory .i i. . had on the Governmentand all I could -: i liM sav about it was, mai uiuuiuciai icuu ..i nuuui u :
me his rackoou story ; 10 snow Uv .u,,,- we8tcrn lme js ooullded by the Watant it was for him to stick to a notion bh and m ar tne vvuoie iiistance has a HIGH
rieht or wronsr and as he didn t know exactly how he

ieu uiuj me sioijr v. .u, u & ' Danforlh's heo,aod see It that WOUIU to TOW anv liht on't. Then thev wanted to know it l intend, ed to compare the Gineral to that obi tien ami 1 tell'd em it want so much my bu siness as other folks it was enuf for me to tell the story jist a it was, One thing however, savs I, is tritty sartin, and that . . ... is, that the Gineral has got some plagy odd fowls about him, and that pritty much all ! on em have been droppin their eggs un-1 der him to hatch for em, and noihiu hs come out of the nest y et that the people like. And, says I. if some of you don't manage to stand aside and let an egg go m the nest worth liHlrhio, I am peskily afraid the people won't stand it much longer, but will make a elean sweep of the hull on you, and breakup the old uest in the bargain, and so says 1, that's all for the ptcseut.

Among others, he speaks of a gill who was in the habit of bathing erer) night, while asleep, in ihe Seme This coming to the ears of the father, he provided himself with a good cowskin, and one night nfter she had performed her customary ablution, he seized her, and applied the remedy so severely, a3 to awn, ken her. The poor girl, smarting with the pain, was aso dreadfully terrified at finding herself almost naked at midnight in the streets of Taris, and was never known to be guilty ot sleep walking again! He also relates an instance of a French gentleman who being also a somnambulist, tiequently got up in Wis sleep and danced a hornpipe with astonishing agility. Once while travelling, he stopped at a Hotel, where all the rooms being occupied, he was obliged to sdeep io a chamber with a coachman, to whom he related his agile propensities, and expressed a hope that his companion would not be disturbed, if, during the night he should be attacked with a it of somnambulism. "O no," said the coachman, "for I am Irequent'y trou I often rise in my sleep, and lancymg my horses stuck fast in a quagmire, seize my whip, and lay about me with all rny strength and, if I should disturb you du ring the night, 1 hope you will excuse me " In the night the gentleman got up in his sleep and began to dance en cucrpo. The coachman also got up, seized his whip, and exercised it so well upon the defenceless body of his lively couutryman, that he screamed with paiu aud agony, capered It i ivlwi r I r n i) i) r wnrl o lnrrtK n ir r h ft ' iii Hi. i tii ii ii auu u v ivugui UTviu,f tenitied almost to death!
