Caught in his oum Trap.?The editor of the Albany Atlas translates the following from the French:?"A girl, young and pretty, but above all r..j Li- 1 f|iiiuu nun <111 nil Ul IUIIM UIIIU CHllllOr, aiely presented herself before a certain Parisian lawyer, (we translate the inci( ent from tne French journals for the benefit of our home-made attorneys*) and thus addressed him:? 'Monsieur, I come to consult you upon a grave attair. I want to oblige a man I love to marry me in spite of himself. How shall I proceed?' The gentleman of the bar had, of course, a sufficiently elastic conscience. He reflected a moment; then, being sure that no third person overheard him, replied unhesitatingly?'Mademoiselle, according to our law, you already possess the means of forcing a man to marry you. You must remain on three occasions alone with him; then youcanswer before a judge that he is your lover.' 'And that wi/l suffice, Monsieur?' u,*Yos, Mademoiselle, with one further condition.1 Well?'?'That you will produce witnesses who will make oath to their having seen you remain a good quarter of an hour with tl?? inrlivtrtunl cnirl to have trifled with your affections/ 4Very well, Alonsieur. I will retain you a9 counsel in the management of this affair. Good day.* A few days afterwards, the young girl returned. She is mysteriously received by the lawyer, who, scarcely giving her time to seat herseif, questions her with the most lively curiosity. 'Well, Mademoiselle, hew do matters pros- i FcrV 'Oh! all goes on swimmingly, have passed a half hour with my intended. I have been seen to go up stairs and come down again. I have four witnesses who will affirm this under oath.' 'Capital! capital' Persevere in your design, Mademoiselle; but mind, the next time you consult me you must tell me the name of the young man we are going to render happy in spite of himself.' 'You shall have it without fail.' A fortnight afterwards, the young person, more naive and candid than ever, knocked discreetly at the door of her counsel's room. No soon&r was she within, than she flung herself hastily into a chair, saying that she had mounted the staira too r.midlv. nnd that emotion made her breathless. Her counsel endeavored to re-assure her; and made her inhale salts, and even proposed to unlace her garments. 'It is useless, Monsieur,1 said she, 'I am much better.' 'Well, now do tell me the name of the fortunate mortal you are going to espouse?1 'Are you very impatient to Know it?1 'Exceedingly so.1 'Well, lion < lin (ni'f nnatii * iiiv. iv/i iuiia\u niui iai) Lit; 11 known to you, is?yourself!1 said the young beauty, bursting into a laugh. *1 love you; 1 have been three times tete-a-tete with you, and my four witnesses are below, ready and willing to accompany us to the magistrate's,' ffravely continued the narrator. The awyer, thus fairly caught, had the good sense not to get angry. The most singular fact ot all is, that he adores his 3'oung wife, who, by the way, makes an excellent housekeeper." Decision of character is one of the most important of human qualities, philosophically considered. Specula tion, knowledge, is not the chief end of man; it is action. We may by a fine education, learn to think most correctly, and talk most beautifully; but when it comes to action, if we are weak and undecided, we are of all beings the most wretched. All mankind feel themselves weak, beset with infirmities, and surrounded with ?i ii- - _ _ . (.'.augers; me acuiesi minds are the most conscious of difficulties and dangers. They want, above all things, a leader v. ith that boldness, decision, and energy, which, wilh shame, they do not find in themselves. 'Give us the man,' shout the multitude, 'who will step forward and take the responsibility.' He is instantly the idol, the lord, and the kin^ among men. He, iwnt who w?u!u command among his follows, must excel them more in energy of wiii than in power of intellect?Bitmap. Curiosity Governs the World. ?A clergyman once announced to his people that he should preach to young men; the pews of his church were crowded wilh young ladies.? He then announced a sorfnon to young women; the church was throng vu wiui uioHdciom. Jtie proclaimed an address to children; and the fathers and mothers, and what some call "the dear middle aged people" were out in force. He gave notice that he should exhort sinners ; and had (hn DAVtnn on/li/>n?n 41. ?

Just before Napoleon set out for Belgium, he sent for the cleverest artisan of his class in Paris, and demanded of hitfft whether he would engage to make a coat of mail which should be absolutely bullet-proof; and that, if so, he might name his own pricc for such n work.

The bargain was concluded,1 and in due time the work was produced, and the artizan honored with a second audience of the Emperor. 'Now, (said his imperial majesty) put it on.1 The man did so. 'As I am to stake my life on its efficacy, you will, 1 suppose, have no objection to do the same.' And he took a brace of pistols prepared to discharge one of them at the breast of the as tonishcd artist. There was no re j treating, however, and half dead with fear, he s'ood the fire, and, to the infinite creditof his work, with perfect impunity. But the Emperor was not content with one trial. He fired the second pistol at the back of the artist, aud afterwards discharged a fowling piece at another part of him, Bjth similar eflect. 4Well/ said the mperor, 'you have produced a cap ncii worn, uuuouuieaty. what is to be the price of it?' Eighteen thousand francs was named as the agreed sum. 'There is an order for them,1 saici the Emperor, 'and here is another for an equal sum, for the fright 1 have given you.1 A. D. 1812. Whiston predicted that the comet would appear on Wednesday, 4th Oct., at five minutes past five in the morning, and that the world would he destroyed by fire, on the Friday following. His reputation was high, and the comet appeared. A number of persous got in'o the boats and barges on the Thames, thinking the water the safest place. South Sea and India stock fell. A captain of a Dutch ship threw all his powder into the river, that the shin might not be endantror ed. At noon, after the comet had appeared, it is said that more than one hundred clergymen were ferried over to Lambeth, to request that proEer prayers might be prepared, there eing none in the church service. Peple believed that tho day of judgment was at hand, and acted on this belief, more as if some great tempo _.:i x- i - ? - i iuij evn was 10 oe expfcicci. un Thursday more than 7,000 kept mistresses were publicly and legally married. There was a prodigious run on the bank, and Sir Gilbert Heathcote, at that time the head director, issued orders to all the fire officersin London, requiring them to keep a good look-out, and have a par ticular lookout upon the Bank of England.?Southcy'* Common Place | Book.

At this, the Governor put spurs to his horse, and vanished.

They saw a quantity of powder lying on the ground, about the door, which had been care I lessly scattered bv the hand in filling [ t/ieir canisters; Mrtty concluded to lmve some sport by putting fire to it. Accordingly they scraped it all up in a hea?, procured some fire, and one of them was bold enough to apply it to the powder, which flashed up in ir.y little 'ellow's lace and burnt him dreadfully. He was taken home, his wound washed and dressed, after which he wa? put to bed, suffering much pain. The little boy was blind and thought he would certainly die.

A PETITION, [ To be presented to the Legislature of our State at its next sitting, and to which the signatures of the citizens of Pickens District are respectfully solicited.] To the Honorable the Senate and House of Representatives: The humble Petition of the undersigned, citizens of Pickens District, showeth to your Honorable body, that Pickens District (extending East and West, or from the Saluda to the Tugaloo river, sixty miles, and North and South, or from North Carolina to the Anderson line thirty-fiv<j miles) embraces within its limits an area of Territory much more extensive than that which is usually contained tvith in the limits especially of a Judicial District: Your Petitioners further beg to he permitted to show to your Honorable Body, that this great extent of territory occasions much and serious inconvenience?heightened by the peculiar geographical and topographical characteristics of the country?to a large majority of th;j people of the District, and to crave that you will take into consideration the propriety of Dividing the same into Two Judicial Districts, to be called, the one Calhoun, and the other Pickens, or 4 . L 1 ? to uc ciineo ?y any oiner names which to your Honorable 13ody shall seem most meet and proper. Your Petitioners also desire to suggest the Keowee River as a suitable line of Division, and to submit that the territories included between the Saluda and Keowee, and between the Keowee arid Tugaloo, being respectively of an average widin of tlnrty miles, and in length varying from thirty tofortv miles, and resnec tively containing Twelve Hundred Voters, are quite sufficient for the formation of two Districts of convenient and respectable size. The extreme inconvenience arising from its present unwieldy size* will become apparent, when it is remetn bered that the eastern a id western borders are by far the most populous parts of the District, and thai persons residing on cither of these must pass over twenty-five or thirty miles to reach the Court House. These difficulties and disadvantages are still further heightened by the unfortunate loeaiion of the Court II ---I 1- L . i louse, which uemg Hitunicd in llie midst of a considerable extent of rough and barren country, is approached from no one point of the District with ease or convenience. These, and many other disadvantages, arising from the same cause, by preventing persons at a distance ' from settling amongst us, and thus occupying, reclaiming and bringing into market the many thousand acres of tillable lands, which now lie waste j and uncultivated around us, prevent or delay the development of its resources, and ffieatly retnrd the prosperity of the District, while the whole I Slate suffers a proportionate loss, lrom the langor ami depression of one ofitspj.rts. These causes have also contributed to drive many of our l?c-.st citi'/ens to hunt new homes in the South and West, where their industry would be trammelled witn less _ I . I t f tut wiiViJi.ii-urtr, ana urns. and ! om these causes, while their energies have lent additional impetus to the rapid development of new States and Territories, pure drops have been drained from the lite-blood of our State, and she has lost forever the benefits of their labors and counsels in peace, and in war of their strength and activity. It would be presumptuous were the undersigned even to hint to your Honj orabie Bo .iy what it so well understands, viz: that?likely to be placed 111 <i iiuBuiu uiuiiKio 10 ine uenernj Government, and surrounded by cold friends if not secret enemies?it is the t ue policy of the State, by fostering the peculiar interests of tne various parts of the community , to fender herself, as far as may be, independent of all foreign aid or extraneous assistance; and no where i* the truth more clearly comprehended than lis by your honorable body, thai one great siep towards tms desired indepeuclence lias been taken* when by wise ami impartial legislation the prosperity of tne grain growing Districts has been permanently secured.
