tail nn extra curl, bo makes ready for breakfast
'Flint is another sight?the way in
which a anuirrcl* deals with a nut. First of
all he shakes and rattles it, that he may be
sure there is something inside; then he twists
it round aud round in his paws, til! he gets
the narrow end uppermost, for he knows that
at the upper end the shell is the thiuost;
then he begins to grate and tile till ho bus
wormed his way through, getting uoiser and
noiser as the hole gets bigger; and then
como intervals of quiet, which moan that bis I
teeth nro in the kernel, and that he is rating'
all within reach ; for a squirrel never has pa- j
tience to wait till the kernel is clean out; lie 1
cats it by instalments in the shell, and trust'
him for getting the whole'of it! Well, after'
the hilt, lie will perhaps pick the bones < f
an apple, if there be one within reach : and
whuu he has had his till he will wash Ida
face with his paws, nnd his paws with his
tiieo, and, feeling quite elcan nnd spruce, and
comfortable, lie will roll over on the lurf, making
funny little noise* and giving queer little
jumps, and then away! up the next trcestcin,
clawing, leaping, swinging, so fast, so
fast;?up and up, till your neck is out of

It evolutionary Anecdote.?
A corrcsp<indent of the N. II. Patriot,
furnishes the following:
"When the British were in Boston, in!
1V0G, iny fathernvos in a barber's shop waiting
to be shaved. A British otficer came in
and wanted to be shaved, provided the barber
could do it without drawing blood, and
sayiug, if he did ho would run hi a'a word
through him. The barber Was frightened
and dare not under take the task. A little
boy sitting Ihove spoke up and said he would
do it. lie looked at theJioy with astonishment,
but the lx>y stripped off his coat and
told him to take a seat. lie took offthe otliccr'a
beard without drawing blood, and warpaid
a guinea for Ids tfohble. The jpfficcr
then asked how he ventured to do it, as he
had been to every hat Lei 's shop in town, and
no one before dared to do it. The boy re
plied, "I thought 1 should see the blood as
aoon as you would, and if 1 had, I would
have cut vour throat to the back bone in n
moment.'* The British officer hung down
his head and left, nnud shouts of applause
for tho boy."

Ax Or.n Soaker's Last Spree.?A correspondent
of tho Troy Daily Times, wi tting
from Berkshire, Mass., and remarking upon '
the great change which has taken place in '
that region in consequence of tho suppression
of the rum traffic, fells the following good
story of an old soaker who has siiice reformed
and is now a regular total abstinence man.t
Jt is given iu the old fellow's own words, as J
follows ; 'I once got a little chango togoth- j
^ er, and started off on a 'regular tender.' Ti
bought ft small hug, will; a bung hole in the
middle of it, so that it Voflld be handy to
drink from, and had it filled with nun.?
After taking a few good 'swigs' I bid it in ft
cooper shop, under soiue/havings, and stmttod
olf for town, balling in with acquaintances,
we all got glorioijsly drunk, and the
spare change of the party was soon nil gone.
Before long we all began to fell miserably
dry again, but money and credit were both
gone, b'uddlod na we all were, wo started
for the copper shop. Arriving there, after
having traveled oyer much surplus ground,
I got hold of what t supposed a keg of ruru,
but the bung wonld'nt come out. lurch one
of us tugged and pulled, dug and chewed at
itj but all in vain. Wo separated in despair.
I carried it home for ft sober trial;
and what do you think it was? Why, it
wua tho head of an old wooden beetle, with !
just enough of the handle left to stick in its j
? place. My ruin keg was still in the shavings, j
and there I let jit stay. That was iny last
spree." ?

From those gentlemen the San Ahkmio ,

6f the imprisonment of three Ainoricans:
In the city of Durango, Mexico, they |
icarncu in a pv?te manner that there wcro !
some Awerieaus in tbo 4ity prison, and they ,
afterwards got permission to visit them.? \

possible for visitors' to remain in the en- ,
trance way but a few miuntos. The Americans
in confinement were threo in nnmber,
and their names and former places of rcsii
donee were as follows: William Sliirt>y, '
ltroom county, New York;-William Kodgers,
Stark county, Ohio; John Gaines, Dayton, 1
Montgomery county, Ohio. Those men have
been in this filthy dungeon four roars wid
three months, nnd tluriilg two years of tins
time they were chained down to tho floor, in
total darkness, where they could not see
any person but the one who fed them their
starving allowance. At the end of two years
tho huge chains around their ankles and
wrists had worn the flesh off to tho bone,
J.-!- t: *t i ? --- -
inii bvivii nm uieir nuniiMO condition lllUl
their chains were removed to save their
lives and keep them iti misery the longer.?
The flesh is partly healed over those wounds,
leaving tho most heatt sickening scars,
which were all seen by the five persons nboye
mentioned.
TIfey slate that they wero imprisoned on
the charge of murdering androbbing n man
for his money, and they state also, that from
some facts which they are in possession of,
the persons who committed the murder
escaped, 'lhev have been trying to get a
trial, but a bearing is refused them. They
have written letters to tho American Minister
in Mexico several times, and they have
reason to believe that ho has never received
them.
Our informants learned from many respectable
Spaniards in 1 Hirango that it was
f impossible to get evidence to convict them ;
j and tho great mass of tire people hclievc
them innocent. The youngest of these prii
soners, John Gaines, of Dayton, Ohio, is ouly

character?theso persons witnessed it

Thorn at Saratoga. i
A correspondent of the Mobile Tribune^ ,
dating from Saratoga, gives the following ,
sketch of an Americau prince; .
1 ''Thorn, (o whom j refer, lias nutdd a Ron
of himself by indulging in extravagances and
eccentricities, lie is the man who so eclips- ,
ed the Kmperor of France, in the splendor of
his 'turn out.' He is said to liavp driven
four span of horses, i iclily caparisoned, to the
most splendid carriage in Europe. Tho Km- '
pcror unwilling that any one should go' in
better style than himself, ordered him to appear
no more iu the streets of Paris with the
aforesaid establishment. His party consists
of his wife, two daughters,beaux, attendants; j
maids grooms, Ac. I witnessed, a few days !
since, the ceremony of their preparation to j
ride. Five steeds and a carriage, with a i
gioom and drivers, in finest livery to each,
were first presented opposite the United
Slates Hotel. Next came the party with
their maids and attendants. A beautiful
mahogany bay horse was first led up, where* 1
upon grooms and servants tork their position
to perform tho feat of mounting the fair Miss
to her saddle. She placed her foot in the
white glovcdiinnd of the groom on the left
side, who gracefully placed her in the saddle j;
while on their right stood another ready to ,
catch the jewel, if perchance, it should drop j
that way. Then came the maids to adjust j
the riding droc-s and place her foot in tliotir-'
up. This and similar ceremonies with her |
sister being accomplished, tho beaux and attendants
mounted, tho old folks ascended !
their carriage, and otf they put as if to a fu- i
neral. This ceremony must have taken a '
half hour?long enough, I heard an Ala- i
bama girl remark, for a Southern party to
have mounted and takfn a respectable rid?.
I forgot to note, that after tho adjustment of f
the young ladies' dresides, reins, kc~, thchorscs
were sugared (fed) from tho hands of tho ;
grooms, which, 1 suppose, was to sweeten
their gaits and spirits, tor the evonings per* '
forinnuee."
