PorticQ, VARIETY. in the stAte of Ohio, is inhabited by a set of people who are but little re moved in point of polish from their troublesome neighbours the wolves. During the last summer one of these desperadoes determined to commit the crime of matrimony,* and repair ed with hla dulcanea, to the liaoita* tion of a neighboring 'squire. A 'squire be it known, is a thing of con* siderable conseauence in that part of the world, and is often connected with the equally respectable profes sion of barbering ; and he who cannot be laid on his back by the law, is frequently tweaked by the nose in the sister vocation. Arrived at the door, the heart of 8 tack house failed, and he commen ced a pretty precipitate retreat ; she, no ways inclined to lose so enviable a prize, gave the alarm, and instant ly started on the scent. The magis^ trate soon joined in the pursuit, and about two miles from his residence overtook the lady, who had tree'd I Stark bouse in a hickory, and was ? l mounting the tree for tin* purpose of obtaining this amiable fruit ; which I she accomplished by seizing bold of I he and forcing him to tin* ground. i I The inrariage cerraoiny was iusUut I ly performed, and the happy bride I produced from tlie recesses of her pocket* dome could venison and corn I bread; and upon tlie yerdaiit carpel I of nature the marriage feast >\ its I held. From this circumstance a report I v> as spread that husbands in Ohio might be picked from off any of the trees, and in consequence the euiigra I tion of female* lias been enormous to I that fertile region.

I This great Divine, originally a_ I poor boy of Hanover, but for his ex I traordinary talents and piety, early I advanced to the professorship of Prin- , 1 ceton College, crossed the Atlantic I to solicit the means of completeing I that noble institution. ? His fame as 1 I a mighty man of God, had arrived j I long before him; He was, of course, I speedily invited up into tlie pulpit.? From a soul at once blazing with I gospel light, and burning with Divine j love, his style of speaking so I strikingly superior to that of tne cold sermon readers of the British metropo- ; Us, thai the town was presently run- j I ning after him. There was no get ting into the churches where he was I to preach? The coaches of the nobil I ity stood in glittering ranks, around I tne long neglected walls of Zion ; I ami even George the third with his J royal consort, borne away by the ho I ly epidemic, became humble hearers I of the American orator. Blest with I a clear glassy voice/ sweet as tho I notes of the harmonica, and loud as I the battle kindling trumpet, be pour I ed forth the pious ardor of his soul I with such force that the honest mon I arch could not repress his emotions ; I but starting from his seat with rolling I eyes and agitated manner, at every I buttling period he w ould exclaim, ; I loud enough to be heard half way I over the church ? " Fine! fine! tine* I Preacher! faith a fine preacher ! why- why-Charlotte ! ? wh^-Chajr | lotte i^-This beats our archbishop !1" | The people all stared at their king. I The. man of (jtod made a stop, and I fixing his eyes on him, as would a I tender parent ou a giddy child, cried I aloudk-" when tte lion roars, I beasts of the^ forest tremble ; and I when the Almighty speaks, let the I king? o t the earth keep tttence."? I The monarch shrunk back into his I *eat, aad oehavei, during the rest J of the discourse, With thtfYraost res. I pectful attention. The next day he t I sent for Dr. Davies, and aftejr compli* I menting him highly for an " honest I preacher, ordered him a check on his I banker for a hundred guineas for col I lege. ? Hkhqwid Compiler. t% I * i ' * A celebrated Jewbh Rabbi tells I the following story, to show how an- i J friendly to truth Is the fear of puni*h*J I ment : ? A certain nobleman m Por | tugal, had a physician who was clap I jied into the inquisition under suspi I cion of Jadaism.7 Hearing this, Jje I wrote to one of tl>e inquisitors, to in* | form him that the doctor was a good I christian* and d^irefl that he might I be net at liberty; Inquisitors re I turned a polite answer, Hint they j could not oblige his lordship, f jr the I prisoner had been tortured, and luul I confessed that he was a Jcwv*He , I feigned sickness, and sent to dfcatoe I the inquisitorial judge to visit htafc? I As soon as he arrived, the count DP* I dercd him to sit down, and to write a confession that he was a Jew.? I The holy father refused. The count I rung for a servant, and on his appear I ing ordered him to call sufficient help I to take a red-hot helment, then in the I fire, and put it upon the head of the I father inquisitor. Iiis reverence I hearing this resolute order, flew like I lighning to tlie escrutoire, took the I pen, w rote the confession, and sig I tied a solemn declaration that he was a Jew. The count then reproached I him with his iiyustice and barbarity. " My physician, " said he, " hath confessed himself a Jew, as you bptve, with this difference, ? pain forced the confession from hiiu, it was nothing I but the fear of it that extorted it from I you."?
