With the Constitution she shared, though in minor measure, the perils and glories of American naval history up to and through the war of 1812; and her preservation as a memorial of that brilliant era of American seamanship, is creditable alike to patriotic sentiment and national spirit. May the old federal frigate aee many more birthdays before her colors are lowered finally and her seasoned timbers are consigned to the naval scrap heap or the domestic wood pile. York Tribune.

Then he had Sideuatricker arrested for the theft of the bit, the case resulting aa given above. As the bridle bit is probably not worth over a dollar or two, it ie proving quite a costly bone of con tention between the partiea.
