The first is a Swarthy and Spani Ard looking Man with tall forehead Sharp sidelong eyes dark hair Curling Over his lips and Chin and firm deep Cut nostril. These cond has a fresh complexion Auburn locks round brow hair on his upper lip after the old English fashion and sparkling glowing eyes not the least like those of a dreamer but resembling rather the eyes of some hot As John Woodvil hath it.

The latest Dodge. Among the numerous expedients which have been resorted to in evading the Maine liquor Law the following is the moot ingenious about a fortnight since. A tall specimen of Yankee manufacture arrived in the Good City of Portland in the state of Maine and established i Inselmand Luggage at the Elm hotel. This Luff ago consisted of a Small Valise Aud a Large Oblong Box containing for the inspectors had examined its a Quantity of Hooks richly bound which the proprietor had bought for the purpose of retailing about the City y after seeing placed in the room allotted to him the Pedler made his appearance col Sherman during the became in patient of delay and in disobedience of his Superior s orders endeavoured to bring in a general engage ment and it was Only prevented through he activity of the general in chief and his prompt countervailing commands and actions. The texan army retired to their Camps and refreshed themselves for the first Lime in Twenty eight hours. During the whole of the Houston in the Saddle exposed to the enemy s artillery and More than once narrowly escaped with his life. After doubling the vigilance of the Encampment to prevent Surprise he Inid himself under air Oik to rest with his Saddle for a Pillow and without covering slept undisturbed through the whole night and when he awoke in uie morning it was observed that every Shade of anxiety had disappeared from his brow. J ordering two of the Best axes in the Camp to i be brought to him he gave them to his faithful other horse he remounted Rode slowly .1 the Field and was cheered by his comi As he moved along he spied two Large Ravens Tillery had been posted with their to wards the West.

Arriving shortly after at the Oak under which to had slept the previous night lie received Almonte As a prisoner of War at the hands of Gen. Rusk and exhausted by loss of bipod fainted and fell from the Saddle. Thus end so the bloody Battle of san Jacinto. A Battle that has no parallel in the annals of human warfare for the accomplishment of to great a result As that which followed it with such insignificant Means As those which were Ernp Loyed by the mighty Man who led his com nit Liis to Victory. Of the 1800 men comprising seven Only escaped from the Liely leaving eight Hundred prisoners of War while All tiie rest perished. The texan loss was seven killed and thirty wounded health.

A rapid declension in the life and health of Man has taken place for hands on them at a moment s warning a. And not to be out of his Call the whole Day. The morn ing wore away and Gen. Cos was seen with 540 men moving Over the Prairie the enemy s Carnap but Houston apprehensive of the effect of such intelligence on his Little band pronounced the affix air a Mere ruse on the part of Santa Anna and his opinion was publicly sustained by the spy who had been sent out to As certain the real state offsets. At this juncture a Council of War. Consisting of six Field was called at their suggestion.

A sensible landlord the prank Ford her Ald is responsible for the following a Little incident transpired some weeks ago at one of our Frankford hotels which under the present Temperance excitement is not unworthy of notice. The names of the parties we shall withhold from the Public for shame Sake. A Little girl entered the tavern and in pitiful tones told the keeper that her Mother had sent her there to get eight cents. Eight said the tavern keeper. What does your Mother want with eight cents 1 i Cost Dregs like a new creation amid the slush of chaos. All had something of a religious tendency but while in slip Speare it takes a vague Diffusive form and in Burns Nover amounts id much More than what he himself an idiotic in Bunyan it becomes a deep burning principle of thought Anil action at once swallowing up and sanctifying his native Genius. The Fate of Tho three was curious and characteristic. Shakespeare the Sublime stage player out living his Early self with those mysterious errors which Are partially revealed in his son nets a decent retired self indulgent gentleman like a Dull sleepy soaking evening following a Day of blended storm and splendor. Burns after Many a vain attempt to rally against the misfortunes and sins of his life and temperament fell Down at last their proud recall iterating victim dying and.

And so saying he commenced writing annoyed. Say look at the continued the pedlar thrusting the Book under his very nose. This movement had an astonishing effect upon the clerk. He jumped off his chair and began to examine the volume eagerly but. Much to my Surprise without opening it.

It was was to some extent the some with Shaks Seare and Burns. William Shakespeare was very Psi up Lar in his lifetime for the Sake of the humor and geniality of his plays but it took a Century or two for the world to see that he was the greatest poet that Ever lived. Burn wild and witty and pathetic poems pervaded All Scotland like the wind of april As Swift and As soft but forty years had to pass Ere Carlyle ventured to pronounce him the first Man in Genius his country had Ever produced. Bunyan a first part of the i Pilgrin was speedily translated into other Jan gang a As Well As widely circulated in his two Hundred years revolved Ere Ian critic was Hardy enough to Call it a work of and exchanging a very queer and mysterious look with the clerk the pedlar vanished. What on Earth made you buy that Book asked i of the clerk As soon As he had gone.

The left win was under the command of Gen. Rusk who turned the enemy s flank in Gallant style while the Centre was led on by the general in chief the moment had at last come the charge was ordered and the War cry remember Llie resounded from All sides with a terrific shout while the two six Pounders opened a Well directed Sre of grape and cannister. At that instant deaf Smith axe Over his head Rode up and communicated with the Gene ral who immediately dashed along the lines and announced the destruction of Vince s Bridge. Now fight for your lives boys and remember the exclaimed the general in a Clear distinct voice. The effect of this intelligence was electric and the whole column it seven Hundred texans swayed and animated with the strength and fury of ten times seven Hundred men rushed Forward with Houston at their head right into the Teeth of Lur in foe. The mexicans were drawn up in perfect or Ijler and reserved their fire till the texans were within Yards but the mass of their storm of Lead went Over the Heads of Llie assailants. One Ball shattered Houston s ankle and several struck his horse in the breast but heeding none of these things the general spurred his Charger on with redoubled Speed closely followed by the whole column at an increased and fearful Pace. The texans reserved their fire till with in pistol shot when every Ball told with fearful effect on the mexican lines and before the lat Ter could reload they were engaged to hand with their infuriated foes who on the other Side not stopping to reload their rifles Over the Heads of the invaders Dis charged their pistols and closed the work of their huge boric knives by absolutely hewing their Way through dense masses of living flesh. The right and left Wing of the enemy had been routed but his Centre remained firm and at one moment repelling the Des Perate charge of the texans he was preparing with a division of More than five Hundred men to fall upon the battalion of Texas when Houston seeing the movement put term self at the head of his comrades and calling on Thorn to order to fire.
