WHITNEY, Receiver. Htgr1" Terms cash, current funds. falg false representations. Mr. Smutwood sympa thized with him in a very feeling manner, and the two men became very mellow towards each other; the exact cause of this mellowness it is not necessary to particularize here some would call it lowing of souls together, and then again others would think it was occasioned by another kind of flowing, into their stomachs perhaps however, a compound of the two would be some where near the.

truth. i It was at this meeting that Smutwood unfold ed to Mr. Bloodsuck a vast and stupendous scheme of swindling that he had concocted in his brain, by which Mr. Bloodsuck would be enabled, not only' to recover back all the money he bad lost by the beach nut gentlemen of the Duck, but would also effectually turn the tables upon them, and put a vast amount of money into his pocket. This was to send three or four of them into the western country amongst the planters as agents for Mr.

Bloodsuck, to buy up large amounts of produce on commission, which produce conld be forwarded on to Mr. Bloodsuck and by bim transmuted into cash through New York acceptances, payable in the city where the Bank of Hifalutin was situated. In order to pay for this western produce Smutwood Bhowed him that blank acceptances, for indefinite amounts, could be given to his agents, payable at different banks in the city. These acceptances might be negotiated in the west, through the friends of the agents; who would be naturally desirous negotiating them in order to secure their own commissions and if there was any doubt about the matter, they would endorse them, and push them through the western Banks, which said western Banks would only be too glad to discount them, as a ready means of effecting exchange on the city. He also represented to him, that it would be necessary to move with extreme caution.

To employ several agents at once, and keep them entirely ignorant of each other's operations. To locate them at different points, and make the acceptances of long date, so as to allow the pro duce time to arrive before they became due. This disposed of, and the proceeds ill bis pocket, he could then "stand from under," and let the ac ceptances lake care of themselves. Tn other words, make a tremendous compromise with his creditors at the lo'est possible figure, Bloodsuck hesitated. He saw it would plunge him at once into the deepest abyss of infamy.

Hitherto he had preserved his honor, like a priceless jewel. Should he still continueto pre serve it, or should he go into the produco market and there exchange it off, for a given quantity ot sugar, tobacco and cotton? He gazed upon the features of the incarnate devil beside him, and started back affrighted. Amazing! was Smutwood then alone, or was there another Smutwood beside him, peeping over bis shoulder and whispering into his ear? He drew his head back, and took off his spectacles. He was mistaken there was only one Smnfwood. He put the spectacles on again, and lol another Smutwood appeared.

It was very plain llmthcsaw doublet when he had the spectacles on, but whether it was the effeot of the optics themselves, or the brandy be had been drinking, or the effects of the advice, he had just heard, upon his mind, or whether, in reality, there were two Smulwoods. a living one, and a shadowy one, he has never yet, to this day, been able to determine. Yet from that eventful evening, Mr. Blood- suck's vision was impaired. He saw double, and would start back, to bring his glasses to a focus upon every object.

Some thought that a vision of the shadowy Smutwood was ever present before him, peeping out from behind different objects, and reminding bim of that eventful evening when he sold his birth-right for a mess of pottage." Others, more charitable thought him a little cross-eyed and one old physieian urged him to submit at once to an operation for strabismus, as the most efficient means of enabling him to look his fellow-men steadily in the face. He fell. The ci devant uptight and honorable Bloodsuck went down upon 'change, and en gaged a number of the triangles to go out west for hiro, and purchase produco. A was sent to one place A to another and ditto, ditto. They were all furnished with acceptances to a large amount, and instructed to purchase sugar, cotton, rice, tobac co, hemp, Ac, 4c.

in short, anything and ev erything that could be purchased with facility. His commissions were liberal, and all the agents were loud in his praise they bought freely at the west, and not being very particular as to prices, they soon had a complete monopoly of the trade. In the meantime Mr. Bloodsuck was busy ta king care of the immense quantities of produce forwarded to him by his agents. Vessel after vessel arrived, laden with consigned to Walter Q.

Bloodsuck, Esq. The rest of the Triangles pricked up their ears, and began to think him a great fish after all, and some of his friends proposed the organization of a Board of Trade, of which Walter Q. Bloodsuck, would make the first President. At last the trap was sprung. One fine morn ing in the month of October, it was officially announced upon 'Change that Walter Q.

Bloodsuck, had failed. Many could hardly believe their senses, yet it was but too true. Blood suck was a bankrupt a poor, ruined, unfortunate, decayed, impoverished bankrupt, with just $80,000 in his pocket. A compromise was made with his creditors on easy terms. The Triangles," B.

Those who an la want of good bargains win de wall tn lake advaataga of this oppoilut- ty. nesdtf to remain where they are now, "without dutine- Hon of party." They concluded then they would have a grand show, and, collecting the people of the surrounding country together, ex hibit the wonders of their village, and induce them to stay and increase the numerical strength of their town. For a long time they cogitated as to the means, and at length resolved to send a ship over the Falls. The ship was an entire fiction, as an old scow that had been worn out, as some modest men have been, by long continued "snubbing," was to be the A ship filled with wild animals, however, was advertised by handbills, far and wide, to go over the Falls on a certain day, and for weeks the whole country was agape at the intelligence.

On the appointed day, the people flocked in, in carts, wagons, on horses, cows and oxen. The town was crammed full of people. The military were all out. Capt. Sam Drake marshalled his company on the canal bridge, where they went through the parade drill, and blew their noses at the conclusion, by way of refreshments.

Most of the country people were barefooted, and looked with wonder upon the covered feet of the villagers. As a consequence all the shoes and boots in town were sold that day. Gen. Riley had his brigade marshalled in front of the where they enjoyed themselves alternately in eating pop-corn and sitting on the front stoop. At one o'clock a rush was made for the river, and, crowded thirty deep, the multitude stood and awaited the ship.

Down she came, the dilapidated old scow, on the deck of which was seen a disconsolate looking tame bear, a rooster, whose tail feathers bad dropped out from old age, a cat that hadn't strength enough to mew, and a weak old dog that hadn't strength enough to bark. None ef the animals appeared at all frightened on the noble vessel, as it careened over the frightful rapids in somp pkces eighteen inches deep and the bear didn't seem em-bear-assed at all. On, on came the gal-li-ant craft; close she approached the frightful abyss that yawned for her certain destruc tion; closer to the brink of that fearful chasm she advanced, and all the people held their breath in the awful terror of that highly concentrated moment. An instantshe hung trembling upon the edge of the Falls a moment hovered on its brink for one second she was suspended almost in air, when with one immense surge, one terrible plunge, she stuck on tfte edge of Genesee Palls! The people waited for two hours to see the cussed thing" go over. But it didn't go, and they set up a universal swear.

The committee on spectacle" endeavored to pacify them, and promised that the cussed thing' should go over if the country people had to slay in town forev er. Months elapsed, and the people stayed, and finally, two soldiers, who had been recruited at that point, stood on the shore and pried the gal-li-ant ship over with a couple of raiis. Some idea of the tremendous force of Genesee Falls can be obtained from the fact, that as soon as the ship was pushed off the brink, she went down to the bottom in one terrible plunge, and never bounded back again, (that we ever heard of.) The bear (which, we are authorised to state, was not the animal still later apotheosized by the Rochester people,) and the dog, cat and rooster, had great difficulty in getting ashore, owing to iheir being so weak with four months' starvation. But they did succeed, and the cat is now in the family of the Rochester Union, very much respected. The people who came to see the show are there still, and Rochester was thus ex.

alted to her present position and influence. Of her later destiny, is it not written in the chroni cles of Jo Smith 1 History ol the Bank of Ilifuluiln. OHAPTER XXX. IN WHICH BLOODSUCK EUCHRES THE "TRIANOLES." We mentioned in our last chapter, that when Mr. Bloodsuck first went upon the Dock, that he was an honest man.

This we know, for we had abundant opportunities of testing his moral calibre. His word was unquestionable, and never was be known to swerve from it in the least, even when, by twisting ever so little, he conld have saved himself from a heavy loss. "Stand up to the rack, gentlemen, fodder or no fodder," the precept he invariably inculcated on his "buckwheat" brethren of the dock, and we will do Mr. Bloodsuck the justice to say that he did stand up to its right manfully. The "Triangles" of the Dock were not so scrupulous.

Sometimes their word was good, and sometimes it was not quite so good. In their private grammars, the adjective admitted of many degrees of comparison. It varied from good, to good-for-nothing, the latter being the superlative degree in English, and the one generally used by the "beachnut" gentlemen of the Dock. Mr. Bloodsack, as we before stated, was bank rupt.

Of the $30,000 he bad when he com menced operations upon the Dock, there was cot a dollar remaining. His old partner, Cheatcm, supplied him with funds to carry forward a small cargo of rice to market, on which the back charges were upaid. In short, Mr. Bloodsuck was totally destitute of all means, and the only thing he had left upon earth was au unsullied reputation. Those who have perused that most beautiful of all allegories, the "Pilgrims Progress," Will remember how Christian, the hero, after leaving the House himself to go down into the valley of Humiliation.

The path was steep and very slippery, and travellers going down were very apt to fall. This was not of so much consequence in itself, but those who slipped in going down, were sure to meet an enemy in the valley, whose assaults were always in pro-protion to the number of slips by the way. Christian himself did not go down without sev eral of those slides, in consequence of which he met the great arch fiend Apollyon himself in the bottom of the valley, where there occurred a tremendous fight between the devil and Chris tian, in which, at last, the poor pilgrim was victorious, but not till after he had been wounded in the head, the hand, and the foot by the fiery darts of the Wicked One. Thus it was with our friend Bloodsuck. As he descended into the vale of adversity, lie caught two or three slips by the way, (slips feminine, No.

60, Locust street,) and as a natural sequence, met the "wicked one" in the middle of the valley. This "wicked one'' was Mortis D. Smutwood, the "Dry Rot'1 and "Gallinipper' bauker, whose career we hare heretofore traced. The consequences of this interview were so ran mcntous that we think our readers will pardon us for detailing it just as it transpired. I Mr.

Bloodsuck had been down upon the dock, sending off a few hogsheads of tobacco to New York, when who should he meet but Mr. Smutwood driving in his carriage along the levee. Mr. Smutwood spoke. "Good morning, Mr.

Bloodsuck." "Good morning, Mr. Smutwood," "How is trade," inquired Mr. Smutwood. "Not very good just now," said Mr. "the markets are a little nnsteady in Ner York." "Do yon buy much west?" inquired Smut- wood.

"A little." "Can you use any western money toadvaui tage?" 'Yes, if I had it." Well, I have a few hundred dollars on baud that you can have the use of for a short time if you i i "Thank yon sir," said Bloodsuck, you art very kind, and I may have occasion in a lew days to accept your offer." i i When Mr. Bloodsuck called on Mr. Smut wood, he found him very communicative. Mr. Bloodsuck did sot conceal from bis friend that he had lost very severely by; his Dock operation's," and he grew very warm and eloquent in bis denunciations of the triangular" gentle "A Beeper dot Tribute to BY A w.

Bcpvalok, Febye, 16, '68. Lifting. A tall woman, named Mary Ann Wilson, with the traces of beauty still in her face, was caught in stealing some shoes from the store of Walter Abbott. He went after her after she had left the store, caught her, brought her back, and found the Bhoes on her person. She had another pair also.

She was brought before Justice Dbuxlard this morning, and plead not guilty. She stated that she bought the shoes, but unfortunately for her honesty, Mr. Page, (Ramsdell identified the other pair of shoes as stolen from him. She was convicted and sentenced to be confined in the penitentiary for GO days. She wns very much surprised at this, and stated in answer to an enquiry of the Justice, that she was twenty-two years of age.

Perhaps her sentence had made her young again, but we are uncharitable enough to think that she was forty, if she was a day old. jgfPRisiAL. We saw yesterday one of the primitive sleighs, with which our forefathers were wont to ride over the frozen snow, in those times when "goose necks" had not evolved themselves from the dim future, and when varnish and gilding were highly heretical and unnecessary fixtures. The vehicle alluded to, consisted of two long hoop poles, split, the round side down, forming the runners and the shafts descriptive. In this, on an impromptu seat, sat a man and woman, wrapped up in furs, utterly ignoring the immense excitement they created, and pretending to notice no one.

An old council, hung on the horse's collar, jingled out the music of this ancient concern a sort of sarcastic defiance to the fun created among the people on the sidewalk, by this antcdeluvian apparition. That man and woman are bold ones utterly unmindf jl of publiG opinion, and we recommend that they set for their pictures, sleigh and all, at the first convenient opportunity. 53f Something foe the Hard Woriers. An india-rubber knee protector, for the use of house maids, when scrubbing floors, stairs, has been invented by a man named Hutchings, of London. The pad, or "protector," is made of india-rubber, and tubed, the rest being formed of a thick sheet of the same substance, the oppo site sides being fastened together, when in use, by means of two large ivory studs.

The elasticity of the material enables it to be worn without either shifting its position, or what is even of more importance, stopping the recurrent circu lation. It is worn under the clothes, and the wearer may keep it upon the limbs for the whole day without being in the least degree inconvenienced by it. It is well known that house maids contract "white and other dis eases of the knee joint, from being compelled to kneel for considerable periods daily upon hard floors or brick-work, while engaged in scrubbing, or other avocations of a like character; indeed, one malady known professionally as "acute inflammation of the bursa," may effectually be prevented by this simple yet useful invention. fg Bold but Unsuccessful Foroert. A molasses-colored little negro, named John Oliver, was brought to the Police Court this morn ing, charged with forgery in the "fustest He was a fat, yellow, little, dirty rascal, of ten years of age.

This morning he was much want of money, and dropped into the store of Benson Buokland, and told the proprietor that he wanted free cents exceedingly. He was asked what he wanted it for, upon which he stated that he had been buying a book at Phin-net A bookstore, and that he lacked just free cents of having enough to pay for it. He was told that if he would get a note from Phinnev fc corroborating his statement, he should have the free cents," and welcome. He went off, and retnmed in a few minutes, with a draft on Benson fc Buokland, which read thus 1 Pay the bearer three cents. Phinnet and Co.

Benson dt Buokland smelled an immense mice, and started with the boy to the Police Court, when he acknowledged that a young milliner woman, in a milliner's shop "just this side of the American," wrote it for him. He was sent home, after he had received a "talking which talking to should have been transferred to the young milliner aforesaid, who takes a great liberty with other people's Great Invention. The an instrument for measuring and registering the velocity of vessels while nnder sail at sea, recently invented, has been satisfactorily tested ly being attached to the ship Moses Taylor on her last trip to Aspinwall from New York city, and so perfect has it proved in its operation, that it is to be placed on the steam frigateaNiagara to be nsed in her next telegraphic trip. The veloji-mctre gives with almost the accuracy attained by solar observation, the dead reckoning of the ship to which it is attached. The mechanism jis described as consisting of a drag," which is attached to the keel, midway of the vessel, playing forward or backward in a journal.

The drig is deflected from its perpendicular position just in proportion to the resistance of the water, which is, of course, greater or less as the vessel moves faster or slower, and the amount of the deflection is registered by a connecting rod on a dial plate in the main cabin, which is capable of recording 20 knots an hour, and 400 a day. The correct time is given by a chronometer. It is claimed for the velooiruetre that it will record the distance from New York to Liverpool within a mil, whereas by no other process can it be ascertained within fifty miles. With this instrument, the navigator cares but little whether the beavenis are clondy for many days or not. Information for Young People Roohe-ter.

This word signifies confession time, or, rather, Confession-Tuesday. In England, before the Reformation, the people, on this day, one by one1, confessed their sins to their parish priests. They afterwards dined on pancakes.

This latter ci-cumstance gave rise to the vulgar appellation, Pancake-Tuesday. The bell rung on thijt day was also vulgarly called, Pancake-Bell! The practice of eating pancakes, or fritters, is, we believe, still continued in England. Committed. In the case of the chicken thieves arraigned before Justice Dbullaud yesterday, and charged with burglary, Keeloy and Stewart were fully committed on the charge, while Berlin and McDonald were discharged. McDonald proved that he was in the workjhousc out of harm's way at the time of the burglary, and Berlin also proving that be was in durance vile in jail at the same time.

Since then it has been discovered to be a medicinal article, the product of the Hemp Cannabis lndica which grows largely in Persia and the Caucasus.

18. Houss. Mr. Henr Winter Davis made a personal explanation. He read extracts from a speech of his colleague, Mr.

Bowie, containing strong language against the American party during the Baltimore elee tion, representing him as saying, (looking to wards Mr. Bowie,) "You, sir, have a day of reck oning; I will put yon under my foot; you shall not live an an hour," Ac. Mr. Davis wished to know whether his colleague had applied such language to him. Mr.

Bowie replied that when be thus spoke. he personified the American party, and did not mean to apply his remarks personally to Mr. Davis, but to the party which struck down the democratic party of Baltimore, by force and bloodshed. He repeated, a day of reckoning will come. There will be a war of the people agaiifat such wrongs.

He did not say how far Mr. Davis counselled such wrongR, but if he did he should take the responsibility. He had not, personally, any unkindness for his colleague, and felt grieved to think that he had wounded him. Senate. Mr.

To this it was objected that tha official docu ments being obtained from the executive office, official testimony might not be necessary.
