dis, a man is a man if he's no bigger as my dumb. Ven Tavid vent out to fight vid Golialı, he dook nothing vid him put one sling; now don't mnis- take me mine frients; it was not a rum sling; no, nor a gin sling; no nor a mint vater sling; no, it vas a sling mate vit an hickery sthick. Now ven Goliah sees Tavid coming, he says, " you little tampt scoundrel, does you come to vight me? I will give you to the pirds of the fielt, and de peasts of the air."-Tavid says, Goliah, The race ish not alvays mit the shwift, nor ish the pattle mit the strong, and man is a man if he's no pigger as my dumb. So Tavid he fixes a sthone in his shling, and he drows it at Goli- ah, ant knocks him rite in the vorehead, and den Tavid takes Goliah's swort and cuts off his
heat-and den all the pretty caals of the shiddy comes out, and strewed flowers in his way, and sung Saul is a creat man, for he has kilt his dousands, put Tavid is creater as he, vor he bas kilt Goliah.
Now mine frients, when you coes out to fight mit the tampt Pritish, remember vat I dell you, dad a man is a man, if he's no pigger as my dumb.
THE LAWYER AND HIS DOG.
A short time since, a dog, belonging to a certain limb of the law in an adjacent township, very unceremoniously entered a butcher's shop, and made free with an excellent leg of mutton; neither stopping to inquire the price nor to as-

certain the weight thereof. The dog, however, it appears, was well known, and the pour butch- er immediately proceeded to the owner's house. The case (barring the person's name to whom the dog belonged) wasstated to Mr. Lalitat, and inquiry made if the value of the mutton could not be recovered. "O, most certainly, l will write to the person immediately." The cunning ' flesh- er' having thus ascertained the law of the case, begged leave to inform the attorney that his dog was the aggressor ! " O! very well, what is the price of the mutton?" " Three and four- pence," exclaimed the overjoyed butcher. " There it is Sir," replied the attorney, throw- ing down the money, which was eagerly taken up by the other, who then proceeded very lei- surely to leave the house, when the attorney called him back, and addressed him in the fol- lowing language :- " I have paid you for the mutton; my charge for advice is 6s. 8d. which I insist upon your paying immediately!" The butcher put on a dreadful face at the mortify- B
ing information; and knowing there was no way to escape, drew forth the money, and paid the lawyer his fee, determined, in his own mind, never to attempt to outwit an attorney again.
From the Nantucket Enquirer.
The Sea Serpent has again made his appear- ance in a variety of shapes. Certificates and affidavits duly avonched by common and prop- er names, are multiplying upon the wide mouth- ed world. Capt. Spitficton of the topsail schioo- ner Polly and Barabas, from East Puzzleburg for Knuckleshough, in lalitude 97, longitude 372, saw a strange animal with a head like a tar-barrel and a tail like an auchor fluke, ser- pentining majestically over the sea's surface at a distance of forty-one feet three inches and a barleycorn The monster was exactly seven- teen furlongs in length from end to erul, or from beginning to beginning. Being a phrenologist, the captain particuliarly noticed the humps, of which there were eighty-four, in the shape of

wool sacks. On discharging a rotten potato, the serpent popped under the water and was off. The cook's inate, a very respectable coloured gentleman, well known to the Rev. Mr. Wigs- by, who was at that moment trying onions in the camboose house, with his face towards the weather door, testifies also to the foregoing facts.
Another equally authentic relation is given by the master and crew of a Nova Scotia East Indiaman, bound on a mackaret voyage to the German ocean. While off Cape Schaarkro, they boarded the wreck of a large brigs the masts spars, sails and rigging were all gone. 'Near the batchway, which was open, lay several ob-
long substances resembling large bladders of snuff; "these were carefully deposited in the boat. On going aft, one of the men observed written upon the binnacle, this memorandum: -" June 4th, squally-closereefed foretopsail -at 10 P M. all hands devoured by a sea ser- pent; so ends these twenty four bours." While consulting on this strange inscription, a noise was heard below ; presently a hogshead of to- bacco was seen slowly rising out of the hold; and as it ascended, two enormous jaws were discovered grasping its nether bilge. The ter- rified seamen hurried into the boat, and took to their oars. By the time they had rowed off two cables' lengths, the hog- head reached an altis

After arriving at the ship, Captain Dunderdunck watched the reptile with his glass, and distinctly saw the tobacco fairly engorged. Where upon a classi- cal passenger from Oxford exclaimed:
Quidquid in altum fortuna tulit, ruitura le- vat.
The snuff col ured spheroids, which are un- doubtedly serpent's eggs, have been carried to London, where, under the direction of the Royal Society, they are to be hatched during the next sitting of parliament.
The sea serpent was not a stranger to the aboriginal inhabitants of New England. Some time in the fifteenth century, the Indians upon this and the neighbouring islands suffered ex- cessively from a long drought. The corn blades
were crisped. the turn pike vines withered : ,ud the green bl. ckberries. brfore they were red. dropped fre: the bushes. In such a state of things. the appearance of a heary black cloud approaching from the south west, was greeted by the tawny populace with Jond demonstra- tions of joy; the chiefs whooped, the squaws grinned audibly, and the papooses chattered. But before the anticipated supply could reach Nantucket, a huge serpent emerged from the sea. ri ing perpendicularly and burrying his bead in the cloud, whence he absorbed every particle of moisture. and the vapoury remuant blew over, like a puff from the pipe of Manshop, without shedding a single tear. As the monster lowered his unwieldly length, he fell partly on the southern shore, and forcing his way across land into our harbour, again attained his ele- ment.

ARTFUL QUESTION .
Dominico, the harlequin, going to see Louis XIV, at supper, fixed his eye on a dish of par- tridges. The King, who was fond of his acting, said, " Give that dish to Dominico."-" And the patridges, too, Sire?" Louis penetrating bis art, replied. " And the partridges too." The dish was gold.
It is a subject of true wisdom to bring togeth- er every circumstance which may light up a flame of cheerfulness in the mind; and though we must indeed be insensible, should it burn
with the same unwearied brightness, yet it should be preserved as a sacred fire, never to be totally extinguished.
A lady, who made pretensions to the most refined feelings, went to her butcher to remon- strate with him on his cruel practices. - ' How,' said she, ' can you he so barbarous as to put.in- nocent little lambs to death?' " Why not, ma- damn?" said the butcher; "you would not eat them alive, would you."
A gentleman, seeing an Irish woman skin- ning eels, said to her, " how can you bear to be so cruel? Dont you think you put them to a great deal of pain?" " I might sir," she replied;

The reason why some women do not wish to admire St. Paul's writing's, I suppose, are these: His being, as it is usually thought, a bachelor; his advising people not to marry in troublous times; his commanding wives to submit to their husbands; his not allowing women to speak in public; his unwillingness that they should broi- der their hair, or wear trinkets; his charging the fall upon Eve; his disregard of old wives fa- bles; and his saying that young widows became tattlers and busy bodies.
