OLD GUI MLS. The Ions and warm acquantance we have had with old Mr. Grimes induced us on that worthy gentleman's demi.-c to look after hi pious Til." the good oia ;urs. Gritas Our inquiries have been as un real ing 3 they were praise worthy; but the venerable relic was 'non inventus until a correspondent of the Cincinnati Republican proclaimed to the world the joyful tidings of tier existance. As fate continues her divorse from her disembodied spouse, we cannot do a greater justice to her posthumous fame than to marry Loth together in immortal verse. We shall send Mrs. Grimes a copy of the marri.i::" deed, that she may again have the happincts of seeing her partner and bersesl 'joined in on column Mr. Grime' biographer is A. G. Greene, Esq. of Providence. So that it is to Pn ideure we ore indebted for the entire happiness we now enjoy. Old Grimes is dead, that good oM man, VYe ne'er shall see him moie; -lie uedto wear a lot:j$ black coat Ail buttoned down before. Hi heart 'vas as open as the day His feelings all were mollis h ir were sonif inclined to gray; He wore it in a queue. Whene'er he heard the voice of pain, His heart with pity burned The large round head upou bis cane From ivory was turned. And ever prompt at pity's call. He knew no base design His eyes were dark and small; His nose was aquiline. lie liver at peace with all mankind in friendship he was true His coat h id por.ktt holes behind His pantaloons were blue. Urharm'd the sin which earth poliutcs He passed -securely o'er II- lK-wr wore a pair of boots For thirty years or more. But g;o'td okl G'imes is now at rest. Nor fears misfortune's fi ownHe wore a double-breasted vest. The stripes rau up aud d.wn. He modest merit sought to find, A".d pay it its desert He bad i'o malice in his mindNo mittes on his shirt. His neighbors he did not abuse. Was s..ci.tble and gay Jl' 1:H'-TP buckles h. his shoes, And t h tnged ilum every day. His Knowledge hid from public gaze, H? did not mii:g to view -Ucv make a noise town meeting days, As many people do, His wrrldiy goods he never threw Intiostto fortune chances He lived s all his brothers do, In easy circumstances Thus undisturbed by anxious cares, His peaceful moments ran And 'very body said fie was A fine old gentleman. ITcrc we may be permitted to observe although Mr Grimes is dead, his virtues live in the person of 'his veneutle aud Tiered relic; that in fine, the mantle of his moral excellence has fallen, iiko thai of r.'ijah, on hid earthly companion. W tnc s the truth us told by the Lard of the Cincinnati Republican: weeuw his acquaintance with "the good old Mrs. Grimes OLD MRS. GRIMES. Old Mrs. Grimes is living still, A widow still is she; She wears a neat old fashioned frock, A neater ne'er can be.

In the inhhd fistnesscs of li Htieo and Sumatra and over thc islands of the IViv-i uoriia, still xove, perhaps soon entirely to disappear from the globe, tribes of v hieh the resemblance t baboon is most striking, the superiority over die brute, in toted and body , least perceptible. In them, of human beings, the organs of vitality i!t. t early ami fundamental those named z I .mui.il i.t pn-M'nt the greatest e jnu-ii--n; tbwsc of xyacUuu aud ixioctueat,

superstnicted on the first, still display the

least possible development and mush. Hie external seats of those lowerscnses which stiH remain most directly connected with the wants of the stomach, the tongue, the lips, and the nostrils still preserve the most disgusting amplitude, openness, and snread; the organs of the higher senses. still often exhibit an equally disagreeable and repulsive obliquity and want of room. The face, from a preposterous width above, terminates abruptly underneath in a sharp, cheekless, chinless point. The organs of intellect still appear in their narrow cramped receptacle vJNolly undeveloped. Of the rude ill-formed Viull the anterior part, that which, in proposition as it is bet ter arched, gives earnest ot orgrans though more cxpanded,is still so lov,so narrow, so depressed, that it can hardly be said to form a distinct forehead. The small deep-sunk eyes, like those of a baboon, still keep constantly vibrating in their sockets. The flat, wide, staring nostrils, are scarce by any thing but their yawning orifices, distinguishable from the pouches more prominent than the nose, over which thev are spread. The skinny chasm of the enormous Iipless month is armed with (teeth, long, projecting, and wide a part, like, the teeth ol a saw. Ol chin there is no sign. 1 he lace, hideous w hen viewed in front, is not less friuhtful w hen seen in profile; its greatest prominence is in the region of the mouth. The head, sunk be tween the raised shoulders, has not room over these to turn side-ways. A trunk of enormous bulk supports arms meagre and deformed, of a finny shortness or uncouth alongation. That trunk moves on thighs and legs short,bowed, crooked, and calftess. I hese supports, in their turn, are ill at rest on feet fiat and square, deprived of instep and of heel, and more calculated, by their want of w ell-formed sole, to entw ine them selves round branches than to walk on level ground. The utmost height of these misshapen mortals in general scarce

reaches feet nine. Their ilimaiked mSHJher: a chest very narrow, arms of nro-

is hardly discernible athwart their coarJeJ'thrious length,

dusky hide, as distant in its hue from a fiue glossy black as it is from a clear transparent whiteness. The skin is frequently covered with irregular patches of wiry hair or bristles. Thir limbs seem unhinged, their movement performed by abrupt jerks. They crouch rather than sit ; they climb better than thev walk. Their lea tures have not vet a finish sufficient to mark the distinction between youth and ane. In childhood they look decrepit. Nor do their countenances yet possess sufficient flexibility to marke the transition from calmness to irritation. Little sensiLie to emotions even of physical pleasure, thev are less alive still to feelings of bodily pain. They undergo the greatest hard ships without leingby their sufferings stimulated to mend their lot: they feed without repugnance on the coarsest garbage; encounter without nausea thc most disgusting smells; are inaccessible to any pleasures of the ear or eye; have little memory, and less imagination. Thev seem incapable of reflection on the past, or foresight into the futVe. Unmoved by any prospect of di&tantVberiefit, undeterred by any threat of reniUe lmuhZey are never seen to expn-ss joy or denote nrief to lauh or cry . Only accessible to hunger, while that feeling pinches not their vitals past endurance, nothing ruilles their apathy. Like the brute, they are, while in a state of repletion, wholly inca piii'le of providing fi.r the hour of want. Unfeeling for themselves, thev cannot be epecid to sympathise with the feelings lilies ot others. None et has a wife or child - he callshisown. The female, wooed with a club, when from a means of pleasure she becomes an encumbrance, is by that club despatched. The offspring is left to shift for itself. Cruel, cowardly, and credulous, thty are void of curiosity, and inac J cessible to wonder. Nothing occupy in thi-ir thoughts sutliciently to l ecome fa-1

From the Andaman islands, in the indiau Archipelago, were once brought away, in au Indian junk, two-middle aged savages ot a peculiar tribe, black and whoollv haired, the tallest of which scarcely reached tour feet seven, and only weighed sevcntv-MX pounds. J Protulerant in the paunch, stuued in the j extremities, ol voracious appetite and can j nibal propensities, climbing, n trees as I nimbley as quadrumana, diving under w a teras readily as ducks, hcvivy and dull in intellect, and, when bv them-ei ves, setting uu a cackhii like t::!icys, they culy ap-

pcared seldom even in their gutteral hiss to converse with each other. In the interior of Luconia and throughout the Indian Archipelago, there are vestiges of a black woolly haired race of pigmies, incapable of the least approach to civilisation, unpossessed of any permanent abode, and

when caught, however well used either oon effecting their escape, or pining to leath. In New Holland and in New South Wales, almost every tribe of natives, however small, has an idiom of its own different from that of the neighbouring tribes, and only consisting of a few sibilating sounds, unintelligible out of the tribe. Of these tribes some are hideously ugly. They have noses quite flat to the face like those of brutes, or only noseless nostrils very wide, which entirely want all distinct projection. Their eyes, very close to each other, and deep sunk in head, constantly vibrate like those of the monkey. Their mouth is extravagantly wide and prominent, their body clumsev and ill-form ed; their arms almost fleshless, are of enormous length; their legs equally ungainlyand a rough wrinkled black skin seems ill to fit the ill-limbed body. They lire upon anti' nests, wild honey, roots, and berries; at night they creep into some hcllow tree. The males destroy the famales, and the famales their offspring, when tired of the encumbrance. Once from the interior of Africa was brought to West Indies a whole cargo of captured negroes, bo inferior in organisation to the general average of blacks, so heidous in laee, so mishappen in figure, so short, so deficient in whatever distinguishes human beings from brute, that they could not find any purchaser. They resembled the natives of jld Calabar, residing not far from the coast of Guinea, who have forehead and chins almost obliterated; cheek? or rather pouches, prelecting beyond the nose, vide,prominent, Iipless mouths, armed with long sharped tusks or teeth standin? out: eves a most in contact with each thighs extremely short, spider lees void of calves, and splay feet as ill fitted to stand firm on even ground as those of the neighboring monkeys. Near the Cape, intermingled with the higher race of Hottentots, are the Bojesrten,of which the males scarce attain a height of four feet six inches, and thfe males of four feet. Thev become dec pid and wrinkled at what among whit would scarce be deemed a mature age. Their noses are flat to the face, their eyes in constant motion like those of Monkeys; from their broad cheek-bones their faces taper down to a sharper point; their hair is woo'ly, their coarse brown skin usually besmeared with groese, aud their body begirt with the decaying entrails of the animals thev hove devoured. They sleep seldom two nights running in nests which they contrive in the bushes; are equally stangers to the use of fig leaves and of fire. Apathetic but fearful and not even possessed of the intclliencerequired in slaves, they spend their tie either prowling about in perfect solituV like wild beasts or croucLed like monkeys in a circle, exhibiting an unmeaning grin or an inarticulate chatter. Even iti certain negio races of a very superior cast to these, while there still remains, as in certain brute races of the olfactory, optic, and the fifth pair of nerves a developement mucn greater, a power cenvevmir sensations cf smell, sound, nnd , 7 sight, in certain respects much moie acute than is found in higher human beings, I there still remains to the inonkev a near ! er affinity in of! lff orrni" Mini rvirfj in.. . -a III- ! ternal and evt-rn.l in tho ri.:irL-n, r-no.

G-lOt W e do certify, ihat VALIANT was got by the noted race horse Sir Richard, he by Pacolet, Pacolethy the imported horse Citizen, he by Pacolot of England, he by Blank, and he by Godolphin Arabian. Citizen's dam Princess, bv Turk, he by Kcgulus, and he by Godolphin Arabian. His grand dam, Fairy Queen, by Yoiin Cade, he by old Cade, and he by the G' dolphin Arabian. His great grand dam, Ruth's Black Eyes, by Crab, out of the Warlock Galloway, by Snake, Ball Gallowav, Curwan's Bay Barb. Pacolet's dam, col. Epp's gray marc, by TippooSaib. She was also the dam of several tine horses, among them was Palafox, W'ilk's Wonder, &c. Pacolets grand dam, by Brimmer, he by the imported horse aliant, &c. His great gr. dam, by Babraham, his great, great, gr. dam, by the imported hcrse Jollv Roger. Sir Richard's dam, Madam tonson, by Top Gallant, he by Gallatin, he by the imported horse Bedford, out of an imported mare by Membrino, Bedford by Dangannon, one ot th best sons of the celebrated English Eclipse. The dam of Top-Gallant" by Wild Air, he by Fearnought, he by Rem. Ins, and he by the Godolphin Arabian? The dam of Wild Air, by Jolly, out of the imported mare Kitty Fisher, &x. Ac. Thus it is evident that Sir Richard has descended from the most valuable Hood stock, iucluding that of Citizen, Gallatin, Medley, Wild Air, Fearnought, Jollv Roger, Valiant, Old Partner, &.C.; and goes directly back in all his crosses to tle most approved blood in England; particulariy to that of the Godolphin Arabian, of which celebrated horse he partakes of more than a dozen different crosses. Sir Richard's racing fame has never been tarnished by defeat, though he has run many races, and is said by his keeper never to have been put to the top of his speed. VALIANT'S darn was got by col. Elliott's Top Gallant, a son of Gallatin, her dam by Andrew Jackson's old Truxton son of the imported Diomed, her rand dam by Turk, a son of Dr. Barry's Gray Medley, her great gr. dam by" Reubeu Cagess ch. stallion Rinaldo,ason of Daw. son's Mouse Trap, a son of the imported Mouse Trap, her great, great, gr. dam, by Wild Air. She was esteemed one of the best mares in the country at that day. The Truxton mare was esteemed of equal value to Madam Tonson. The Top Gallant mare was valuable, having produced many good foals, among them VALIANT, above described. For Truxton's pedigree, see American Turf Register, vol Il.pSy.
