r iling tho Census. The ladies uave been oouipelling the Regisirm^nerni w prewit the public *W*tb an enormous statistical TeVHitm of the sittrical jtkt that has been imputed to nlmoet every remarkable man from Cicero to Sir Walter s<Mtf. The it^^idual in question whoever it may bo, was* appealed to by some female relative to attest the fact that she was but twenty-five y?ws of age; and in cor robot**- i lion of her statement; he observed Uiat it must be true since she had given him the same assurance for the last ten years. Now no fewer than 35^000 lades have given the Registrar-General the same * Assurance for ten years. The number of women between thirty arid thirty-five is far too small for the number of women who reported themselves to bo of tho favorite age, between twenty ?*?nd twenty-five, in 1841; and'on the other 0 * hand, the number of girls between ten nnd fifteen in 1841 was not at nil sufficient to aooount for tbe present number of women professedly between twenty and twenty-five, rhe nnmber of ladies who obstinately keep on the safe side of fbrtv is rouwhlv estimated V O V ~~ at the number we have stated above. The Kegistrnp-General in scandalized at the 'foolishness' and at the confusion whicli tho ladies so unscrupulously introduce into tho statistics ; and gentlemen who regard the fbtnale sex with other than statistical feelings have through succeeding contnricswbeen perplexed to know the practical advantage which the ladies secure to themselves by r saying that they are young, when they are j'ust as far from tho cradle and are practicaly as many years old, as if they confessed it. Hut tho reason is evident: the woman who is thirty-five and calls herself twenty-five does not so much intend to cheat her own sensation, her looking glass or even the spectator; but, virtually, what she savs by the statistical paradox is? "Whatever my age may be treat me not as thirtv-fivo, but as twenty-five." And why should sho not be takcu at her word I?London Pujtcr. The Lady Philanthropist, Mrs. Amks was sitting in her front room when sho saw approaching Mrs. Armstrong, a very public-spirited lady, who took a wonderful interest in all reforms and benevolent enterprises, especially thoso undertaken for the benefit of people at a distance. "My dear Mrs. Ames," she commenced, "I am the agent of a sewing circle just established, tho object of which is to provide suitable clothing for the children in Patagonia. I am told that they are in tho habit of going About in a state of nature, which you know is dreadful to contemplate. "Perhaps they are usod to it "Hut there is no reason why we shouldn't improve their condition, bo we have agreed to hold a meeting two evenings in n week will: tlijs object in view. Will you ioin ?" "I'm afraid I can't. 1 should be obliged to neglect my own children, as I presume will be the case with some of those who attend. Look, for example, at the boy in the street; he has a hole in each elbow and his clothes are covered with mud. I presume his mother belongs to some of these benevolent associations and hasn't time to attend to her own children." "Mrs. Ames," asked her visitor, rising with1 indignatiou, "do you mean to insult ine?" "Insult you!" was the astonished reply.? "Of course not* what makes you think so?" "Oo you know who that boy is of whom you speak ?" "No, I don't; hut I should liko to." "You would i Well, ma'am, your curiosity shall be gratified. He ismv sou. George Washiugton Jackson Armstrong. What j have you to say to that ?" "Say ? why nothing. Only it is unfortunate for the poor boy that he wasu't a l'atagouian." Equestrianism. Ac 11Aroolkoolr vijlltw# !j twcTwin-iv 10 WWI1IUUUU1C among j'oung ladies and gentlemen, we copy the following in relation to a very important and hitherto undecided point, from tho New York Spirit of the Tunes, the highest authority on such subject/*, which proves, we think, pretty conclusively, that the right side is not the right side, after all: "The rains are to bo held in the left hand, and the right hand is free to render aid should the horse bceomo fractious, or the habit of the rider require adjusting. If the gentleman rides on the right side, ho must 1 mm his left hand, and can do so to vfcty little purpose. Instances have occurred whore the lady's horse has taken flight on the in- 1 ' stant, and the rider was rescued by the gentleman being on tho left hand sido and taking her from the frightened animal to his . own. If the lady wishes to converse, and her escort is at her right hand, she must turn her head half round to make hirsvif 1 heard. Again, tho escort being at tho left hand, her dress is protected from the vehicles passing, and if it becomes disarranged, is n(A exposed to public view." The best anpedote of -Lorenzo.

Tho country was tilled with theives of one kind and another, and on one occasion, a young fellow, named Dobson, wns suspected of stealing a horse, and it was suggested by some one that it was impossible to get a hold of him, Col. Cusson drew down his eye brows in a dignified manner as if casting about in his mind previous to giving the 'opinion of the Court, and said ; 'Gentlemen, I will issue au Ognuin Torum Writ, and have him corporal led beforo m?.' 'Jtut what kind of a writ is that Colonel ?" asked one old man with caution. 'Its a writ, said the Colonel gravely, "to take him as well where he aint us where he is, and have him corporally before us. This wns satisfactory to the meeting and six men were dispatched with this awful writ, who returned in about an hour with the renowned Dobson in strings. He wns arraigned, witnesses hut noevidenco of oven a secondary nature could bo obtained ; yet, after biking the Vote, a majority found him guilty. The Colonel then put on an awful solemn visage, and said? 'Isaac Dobson ? by authority of the ninth section of laws in the cases, I pass the sentence of death upon you?to be hanged by die neck until you are dead, dead, dead? not for stealing horses but that horses may not bo stolen 1" That evening Dobson was led to a blnkjack and lianged'according to the sentence of 'the Court, admitting that lie bad stolon'the horses, and acknowledging tlio justice of his bvx;WU^? . r ^ .

Tiik TIkaittiks of Flogging.?About the best comment on the custom of 'licking' children for slight offences, that we have heard of lately, was a remark made by a little girl, who was told by her mother to retire to bed.? She was usually chastised each day, about sundown, regularly, but on this occasion, her mischievous pranks had been unaccountably overlooked, and she could not understand It. Accordingly, when her mother told her to go to bed, she lingered. 'Why don't you go to your chamber, Laura r asked the parent. 'Why, mother, said the child, looking up with an arch expression, yon haven't whipped me yet /' Tlrn 1l)ittlll>r orflV#? lioi* ft l-iaa lnafooil of a blow, tliat night. English tavern keepers simply give notice by public advertisement of tnfcir intention to "dress a tine lively turtle* on such a day ; but the Yankee, more atrociously, writes in chalk upon the devoted animal's back, "Soup to morrow," and places him on parade before his'hotel; thus basely making hiin a party to his own murder, and deluding him, in defiance of all the.laws of nations, to advertise his own execution. A i'aintkh in St. Domingo was one day disposing of a horse to his neighbor and being questioned by the purchaser regarding its qualities, among the rest whether it kiclted, the disposer riplied it was the quiotcst animal immaginable. He had, however, hardly used the exprecsion when it flung up it heels, to the danger of the by-etanders. The purchaser, being irritated at the duplicity of the other, reproached him with his intended deception, when, to substinate the oeaceful character of the animal, he called one of his slaves, and demanded of him if he ever saw this hose kick before ? 'Oh, no, me,' smartly answered the negro, 'never saw him kick before?always saw him kick behind. Woman's Love.?A cotcmporary thus discourses upon this subject: 'IIow loviug is woman! Aye, she is amazingly sickly in her attachment. She will cling to the chosen object of her heart like a possum to a gum tree, and yon can't seperate her without snapping strings that no art can mend, and leave a portion of licr soul upon the upper leather of her affections.? She will sometimes see something to love where others can see nothing to admire; and when her fondness is once I fastened on to a fellow, it sticks like glue and molasses on a bushy kekd of hair." The Passions are like those daughters which the poet has fabled Tor "King Lear." They first begnile their victim of all his moral sovereignty and l>ower, and when he is weak, ana old, and dependant, then they strip him of every ministering joy, of every atten (laut qoiisolation, and then cant hi in out into the desert, and leave him in his wretched solitude, in his miserable imbecility, to the darkness of the ni^ht, and tlie fury of the elements.?Gucs.

On re pairing to the Navy coffee-house in Newcastl#?tre$t-f in the strand, he requested to be showii to bed, which he was.

TTuwover, this he lorgot to do; but slipping off his coat and waistcoat, and tying his pocket handkerchief round his head, laid down, without unshipping his weoden leg, and fell asleep. About two in the morning, a stout kitchen wench, on passing liis room door to go to rest, discovered the light in the officer's department, which she entered to bring away, observing that the chainl>ermaid was always forgetting something or other. On looking round the room to sec that all was safe, she discovered about six inches of the wooden leg out at the bottom of the bed, which she, miata- \ king for the handle of the warming pan, laid hold of it, exclaiming "Curse that slut of a chambermaid, 6ho has left tho warming-pan in the gentlema's bed," and in an instant brought the little officer flat on the floor. An Original Anecdote. Tho Portland Argus relates that Capt. K., a shrewd steamboat captain from the State of Maine, caught a Jeremy Diddler," on board his l>oat one day, as he was making from Poston to "down east," and pinned him up in good style.
