The Picayune rejoices it the possession of a live Yankee. as a correspondent. who having wandered as far south as Louisi. aun. peddling notions, has settled down mortu n% here in the Caddo country, or some other uudiscovered region of that Statc, and there concluded to run for Congress. The rollowitng extract from a lener to the 'ditor of the Picayune. describing, one of his electioneering tour<, is a specimen of the luck he haI in the delighloful business, --Wall, I put up %ith a firsirate gnoil natured old feller. that I met with at a billard rooim, and when we got to his hin-se -twas just at dltisk. We weut in. and I was intoduced to his %wife. a ine fat we) maan, that looked as if she had got fal on taMn. her face was so full of fun. Arter a while. arter we'd talked 'hont ny little gal, anda 'hnut the garden. nnd so on. in co~me tihree or four children. latfin and skipped along as merry as crickets. There wartn't no candle lit, 1mut I cenuhl see they was fine boakinig fellers, and I started fur he ,adle bogs. ini w bich I had put a lot oafagar candIy for the biahys as I went along. '"Coom here," says I, ".yau littlo ronag.--come along here' and tell me what vitnr name ti." the oldest came upi to me,. indl says he, "my name is Peter Smith. sir." ".ind n hat's your name?" says!I to the next. ''lt Smith, Sir." 'The next said his name was BilISmiit,' and the oiurth said his name was "Tum my $mith."--Wall, I got 'ettn on my knees, and kissed 'em over and over again, and ginx'eta a lot of augar candy, and old 'lliss Smith was so tickled that she laffed all the time. hMister Smith looked ott, hut did'at say much. 'Why," says I, *'3liss Smith, I would'nt take a good dIeal for thenm four btoys if I had 'enm-theyr'o so benutif'Jl and sprightly." '-No." says she lallin, "I set a good deal by 'em, l,ut we spile 'em tu mucht." '"Oh no." says I, "they're rn'al well be haved children; and, by grashus," vays I, pretended to he started by a sudIden idea, "what a strikin resemblance 'tween them '.ioys andl their father!" aund I looked at 'aIr. Smith --I never did see notbin equal in it." says l--"your eyes mouth, forrad-a per fect picter on yoo sir," says I, toppin the oldest on the p ate. I that' Mliss Smith would die laffin, at that;t her arms fell down by her side, and head fell back, and she shook the bull house laffin. -'Du you think so. Curnel Joutes?" says she, and she looked towards Mlister Smith, and I tho'I she'd gone off in a 6it. --Yes," says I, "I do ra'ally now." "Ha, ha, haw-w-w !" Msay Mister Smith, kinder half laffin, "you're tu hard on me, Curnel, with your jokes," "I ant ajonkin at all, says I, "they're handamim children, and they du look won derfully like you.' Just then a gal brought in a light, and I'll be darn'd if the little brats did'ut turn out to be mulatoes every one on 'em, and their head as curly as the blackest niggers! Mister and Miss Smiti: never had no children, and they sort o' petted them lit tIe niggers for playthings! I never felt so streaked in my life as I did when I seed how things stood. If I had'nt a kissed the lit tle nasty things. I could a got over it, but kissen on 'em showed Ihnt I was in earn est. (though I was sort soapin on 'em as I thought. all the time) and how to get out of the scrape I did'nt know. Miss Smith laIfed so when she seed how confused I looked, that she most suffhcated. A little while afterwards there was a bull fmtner ly of relations arrived from the city. and turned the mater off, but the next mnornim I could see't Mister Smith didn': like the remembrance on't at all. and I don't be lieve he'll vote for me when the electi ton comes an. I *spect .i Sinitti will keep) the old feller under with that juke a gnod nhile. A Perfect Turk.-Tie Ogtcnshurg (N. Y.) Time% gives the followiig report of a ligany case just tried in Si. L.I" rence county. The fellow 4%ould tma.ae a first rate Turk: IWilliam D. Carr. alias Alfrl (o1 humrn, was arraiied oi an itdictmine't f1r Bigamy. It see-m's that he w,e, married somC 23 years since in Vermo.o. but sion Carne to this State and % as ntarried againo in 1lassenna in this County. about 19 years since ta a respectable womn. bitt soon left her and roaned to part, Unknow n. Aluitt 13 or 14 years since Ie was marriel to Miss Rebecca Clark. of Utica. with whou lie lived for -,mne yerr.,. aut re-oov. ed to Decrfield. Oneida Counity. He continued to reside at leerfield till about ihe 14th of December last, when lie re moved to West Turin. Lewis counsy. fur. nished his family with a few provi-,ions. and in a few days left a wife and five or six child-en to turn and shift for theutelvet. in brave the rigors of the fierce winery winds-to suller with hunger or live on the charities of neighbors-under the false pretence of visting his father in Connecti cut, hut taking the opposite direction he soon fAuiid himself in Her Majesty's Pro vince, and f n has rst, secontd, and affections and winning the hand of ano ther fair ou, but he tarried scarcely long enough to form an acguaintance-took leave of abseence, and was next at work in Canton under the assumed name of Al fred Colburn. Some time in the Spring he removed to Madrid. and soon turned his attentions to the daughter of a widort woman. succeeded in his object, and was again married. utnder his assumed cogno. men.

Distress among thr Farnrs of Ireland. -An Anicricai editir in the Emerald Isle. writes to the Philadelphia National Ga zette as follows: " For nany years pa.t, the sinndarl or comfort among the farmers of Irelatid. has been on the decline. When the old ka ses expired, the landlords at onre raised the rents up to the improved value of the farm and the motle of cuhivation. The talents and iidustry of the farmer wvere tLis converted imnto capital far the benefit of the haand owner, anid while the labosr of the tenant was increa5.ed, his meanis of subsistence were reduced until pitatoes and milk have no.aw hecome his only food ! Hie is now)% compelled to sell all the luxuries and comforts he produces. to meet the increased taxes anal the retits. The landlord holdls the pulse of the tennt, to watch the last drop of sweat he can exact from him, without exhausting his victim. Thes face of the country looks beautiful, baut poverty and the police have totally changed the character of the Irish people. They exhibit a tameness and air aof despair and resignation which, to to tme is mnolancholy to conttemiplate." Specie. ike water will .always find its own level. WVherever there is a vacum in the amount naturally requirced, it will be filled by a natural current that will flow from places where there exists a supe-ra bundance. Of one thitig, however, every one, we should think. must now lhe clear ly satisfied ; anal that is, that specie w~ill never circulate in company with deprec iated bank paper. Two cerrenicies of unequal value can never circulate togeth er. T1hat whtich is the least valuable will drive that which is the most so out of uise.
