to ioWnmmt documents, might yet bo tout
to a profitable market. Mother," said ho
mm day, as fee placed a buck tail in his hat,
ind shouldered hit rifle, "I'm going for to
muster; and H mought happen that I could

iort o' so to Capt. Dragger's company. Let

For I reckon she's too fierce for the 8qulrc*a

gray mare *of many points,' ana, burying
his spurs in the flankf of the beast, off she
?tarted in a merry trot, erecting her nose as

Barney waa not idle during the Journey;
al intervals one might hear him mutter,
"4 When in the course of human events'?
* My voice is still for war,%JGreorKians!?
one and all, stand by your arms,'" See. 8tc.
At length he heard tf>e roll ot the drum?
Beuy pricked her ears, and Barney braced
himself up in military pride, at the same
time applying the spurs and pushing forward
In a brisk canter. He reached .the muster
ground just us Sergeant Dooly bellowed out
M Barney Blinn?" Here I?slick' as a
'coon," was the answer; and Barney in a mo
ment was in the ranks, with his eyes direct
ly front, his rifle "stright up and down,"
and his body as erect as if his everlasting
honor depended on hU appearance. The
checking roll of the drum inoculated Barney
with military ardor; cacti word of coin
mand from the brave Capt. 1) rugger, actcd
like a galvanic 4?.ittcrv upon his nerves, and
his old i iile rattled when he grasped its oak
en butt. It it. a uieatpity Barney had not
?t more sweeping knowledge of Uctlcs; un
fortunately he look his place in the ranks
witli his amis shouldered on the right side;
when he ordered srms 'twas on the tfji?
when the wuvd ** fire!" was given, ne shut
the wrong eye, and received the whole
Hash of* the pan in the rigA/.'?However,
Harney did his best, and who could do more?
?If he did shut the wrong eye, thiiil^I,
he it better than many of our' modern^e
rocs, who are very apt to shut both, rea
soning philosophically with themselves,
that if they cannot see their opponents, theh
opponents cannot sec them!
All believed Barney to be the best soldier,
for he was the tallest man, and looked the
Jfereett: snapping turtle, 'coon or steam-boat
?it was all onu to him, for he wan half
horse und half alligator?and no man dared
gainsay it. When the psrade was over,
Barney mounted a brine cask before 'Squire
Dodd's store, and procluimcd his wish to be
heard. A!1 mouths were closed before you
could soy " Jack Kobinson," and the back
woods Demosthenes taking a bottle of whis
key in his hand and pourinir out a goodly
draught, thus he began: u Here is to Gov.
Troup?I'll oust the best meiwwho says he's
not cock o' the walk) I've been thinking
as how 1 mought make a speech to you It
you'll only listen. I ha'nt no notion of seeing
our rights trampled down upon under our
feet while there's a man of us left to hold
'em up. 1 ha'nt no notion of seeing Gene
ral Government (who can't hold a candle to
General Jackson,) striving to resolve the
political bonds which uuites us together, and
sending his kinsman. General Gaines of
Pendleton, to larn to talk Creek language,
and likewise to lam the copper-faces to sing
M'lntosh's death song. I ha'nt no notion of
seeing the firetogative of our State made, as
Jack Sfiear says, a ? trifle light as hair,'?
and, 4 like the Imsc Frederick In a vision'?
reckoned as no account."
Barney then drew from his pockct a copy
of the constitution of the United States, and
went on as follows: ** Art. I. tc V. Miction
4th of the constitution my*. ' The United
State* shall guarantee to every state in the
Union a republican form of government, and
?lmll protect each of them ugaiust invasion,
and, on application of the legislature, or of
tho executive (when the legislature cannot
be convened) against domestic violence.'
Now, ?omc on you niought not understand
this, so I'll illustrate it to you. K'posc one
o' you hud a 'tatcr patuh, clean hoed from
eend to tend, and another of you had a drove
of hogs, which hogs should break down
your fence, and root up your 'tntcrs; ha'nt
you got sense enough to know that the law
will protect you In shooting them 'ere hogs?
The other part means an application to the
legislature for an execution against one Do*
mestic Violence, who, I s'posc was in them
days, a pretty 'cute fellow.?Now d'ye see
General Government has sent the man from
Pendleton here to settle matters, and, In
stead of that, he Is helping the Indians to
scalp u?, and wagcing war against Troup.
Some calls it newspaper war, which means
a war of newspapers, which means?fought
ing with newspaper*?no?yea?new^>nper
foughting!?So, I'm thinking as how this
Major General Government ha'nt got the
right sow by the ear, forGeoiglans Is pluck
to the back bone, n.d may 1 live a hawk and
die a bustard, if 1 don't stick to Troup like
dog Talley wriuld to a 'coon hole!?I'm

The honest clergyman who could flndl
In his bible against such a proceeding,
at least have found something in his statute
book, and if he had looked in the old testa
ment, he might have found something in the .
laws of the ancient dispensation analogous to
a prohibition, In the ordinance against sew
ing linen and woollen cloths, together and
against the breeding of mongrel animals; so ?
carefully was this abhoreiice of Hie mingling
of different racee fostered in the Jewish
nation.
Of catching Yankee*!?!There Is an old
black woman at the Havana, known tQ ^
almost every one who frequents that 'porj,
as a washer of clothcs, in which bushievk *Uo
employs several slaves, having acquired s
hand dome property by it She is partial to t\
the American!, having made the greater
part of her money through them. When ,
some of the British Alps stepped there on
their way for the coast of Louisiana, she, ae '
usual, boarded the ships in search of busfaejM
?and having despatched that, she asked the
captain of one of the 74'*, 44 where are you
going, massa?" who replied, 44 we are going
to catch some d??d Yankees at New-Or
leans. Wc shall stop here as wc come buck,
and I'll sell a doscn or two very cheap lor
washer women.'* "Ah, ha! will you
better let'e d <d Yankee Hone," said the
?" 1 tell ye, you better let him 'looe."^
When the same ship returned to Havsaj?r I
after the dreadful defeat of the 8ih of Jain.,
the old woman again boarded, and obaervin^
the captain, said, " well,' massa, I come if*
buy some Yankee!?'But the Joke was stale,..,
and the officer refused a reply?on which
she added, archly,44 dld'nt I tell you msssa,
you better let'e Yankee lone!"
The tollowing singular notice appeared in
one of the Baltimore daily papers, a few dSys
since:
??" A person who pleaded to
some time ago, the benefit of an

and who is now supposed to be ht the
States under a fictitious name, may
a letter from his mother, In such a pMW
as he shall adopt for concealing his person,
on an intelligible application, (postage being
paid.) to H.wiles, editor of the ftegpter.
The notice excited to much attention, and
caused ho many inquiries to be mode of the
editor of the Register, that on Monday
he camc out with the following explana
tion:?
Having inserted the preceeding notice in
one of the Baltimore daily papers, we shall
sutisfy the inquiries whicn ft has caused, try
?ay big, that, by a late arrival from Liverpool
we have received a letter for " Abraham
Thornton," who was charged with rape and '
murder on the person of a beautiful youtte
woman named Mary Ash ford?and avoided
the penalty of the law by pleading the bene
fit of aii old statute (not supposed to be in ex- -
istence,) to prove his Innocence, In the ab
sence of positive testimony, by ^vfgerajtS ?
battle," with the nearest km of the deeessed
and no one appearing to contend with him,
he was discharged. The tetter Is said to be
from his old and afflicted mother, end will
be dclivcd r.n a suitable application, without
wishing or attempting to identify the uh
fortnnatc, and, as we hope, repentant Indi
vidual, if guilty of the offences charged upon .

give him our pledge to this effect, and the
