From Mrs. Calvin's Messenger. It is related that a laurel was seen growing from the sturnp of the live oak tree, that formed one of the principal timbers of the United Slates Frigate Constitution, several years after the vessel was built, and this fact has been interpreted by some as an amen, that good fortune would always attend that ship.

No more upon thy native hill, Shalt thou unhonored grow, A nobier fate must thou fulfil,

Go! tame my haughty foe Go bear my thunder o'er the waves, Mystar-gemmed banner wear^ To shade each shore that ocean laves,

And reap a laurel there.

And when upon the rolling ssa, Thou bear'st my sons to war, Proud victory shall cling to thee,

And crown each gallant tar: And for thee shall her laurel spring, E'en where thyself hadst stood:—

Gouging.—The most justifiable act of this kind of which we have heard is the following: A Kentuckian, betonging to a surveying party, under an officer of the TJ. Stetes Engineers, swimming in St. Johns river was seized by a large alligator and taken under the water. lu a short time the Kentuckian fit the alligator rose to the surface, the *aitei* having the right leg of the former in his mouth, and the former having his thumbs in the eyes of his antagonist. The officer immediately gave orders to his party who were to a boat a few yards from the ccbatants, to go to the relief of their comrade, but the Kentuckian peremptorily forbade any interferance, saying 'give the fellow fair play. It is needless to add that the goiger obtained a complete victory. Having taken out one of the eyes of his adversary, the latter in order to save his other ey-e relinquished his hold upon the Kentuckian's leg, who returned to the shore in triumph. 'N. Y. Courier.
