Well, after this game had been played some time, the mate prevailed on the steward to place the encLwhkh had no plums in it next to the captain. The captaiu no sooner saw the pudding, than he discovered be had the wrong end of it. Picking up the dish, and turning it in his bands as if merely examining the china, he said "This dish cost me two shillings in Liverpool," and put it down again, as though without design, with the plum end next1 to himself. "Is it possible?" said the mate, taking up the dish, I should suppose it was not worth more than a shilling;" and, as if iu perfect innocence, ie put the dish with the plum end next to himself. The captain looked at the mate, and the mate looked at tbe captain the captain laughed.

"I tell you what, young one," said the captaiu, you've found me out so we'll just cut the pudding lengthwise this time, and have the plums fairly distributed hereafter. hit. North American. From iLe Pennylvanian. Metaphysical.

In one of Brownson's articles in the Democratic Review," about the Origin of the following passage occurs, in au attempted definition of hutnauity We aro to bear in mind that the genus Humanity what we call human nature is no logical abstraction, but a real existence, and in some sort, an existence independent of individuals. This is only saying that humanity is humauity. Humanity, in this generic is causative, active, creative. This is affirmed in affirming that humanity is a reality. Our notion of reality is out notion of being or substance, or something that is.

But our notion of something that ta that is to say, of being or substance, is precisely our uotiou of cause or causative force, This perhaps is as fine a thread of causality as if it were spun by some trausceudantai Archne, aud we are not surprised that our friend of the Wilkesbarre farmer should have been induced, on reading it, to exercise his reasoning powers somewhat after the same formula, in the subjoined exquisite definition of humbug," which he adds to! Mr Brown-son's "humanity," as a logical companion. Humbug has recently been classed as the fourth estate in the social and political fabric, and a criiicaT analysis o( the thing itself, was NOTICE.

CLOTHING STORE I (Otf'liifleile'tjti midieay between Bank 'jfhJkhiAltiu Market.) Mob Rulb. The persons who mobbed end abused some abolitionists in Madison county, Indiana, were recently indicted. They agreed among themselves that one of them should go forward and plead guilty, in order to experiment upon the temper of the Court in regard to the amount of fine it would impose. If the fine shou'd be light, all agreed to do the same. If severe, the balance agreed to refuse to rlead guilty, and to rescue the culprit who did plead guilty from puuishraeut.

The fine was twenty dollars and costs, to which was added twenty days' imprisonment. This enraged his mob associates, aud they assembled in large numbers to demolish the jail, The officers and citizens defended it for one day. The rioters, that night, sent on to the Governor for a pardon for the imprisoned man. In the mean time: hundreds are encamped, armed, around the jail, awaiting the return of the messenger sent for a -pardon, when, should he fail to bring one, they say they shall commence again, and the old jail shall go I -Philadelphia Ledger. The third edition of the Boston Times states that on Wednesday morning Lieut.

George C. Wyche, attached to the U. S. ship Ohio, was taken to the watch house in a miserable state of intoxication, having been turned out of two or three houses. He had received a full which rendered him helpless.

Vieu the tfficers went into the room in the the morning, they fouud him lifeless, having hunHjrnself with hi pocket handkerchief. Lieut. Wyche was formerly from Virginia, and lately attached to the United States service at Portland, Me. His appeaiance was remarkably genteel and bis deportment chivalrous. This is another of the melancholy results of the use of ardent spirits, and ihe fact should speak to the public miud with a voice of solemu and impressive warning.

Bait. Sun. I VN I5UREN AND CALHOUN rtnw HENRY CLAY. It had altogether escnped our recollection until within a short time, a circumstance that occurred in the Senate of the United States during the administration of Gen. Jackson, and when Mr Van Buren waa Vice President of the U.

S. and President of the Senate. Great excitement prevailed throughout the country upon the subject of Incendiary: publications, Abolition pamphlets, and a resolution was introduced into the Senate by Mr Calhoun, to prevent the Mails and Post Offices becoming chaunela for spreading such publications. On the. question of its m-sne Mr Calhoun voted In the affirmative, and Mr Clay in the negative the vote was proclaimed a tie.

The fate of this resolution, so important to the South, depended upon the President of the Senate, Mr Van Buren he voted with John C. Calhoun, and it passed the Senate. I Where was Henry Clay at this important juncture No doubt at his old hobby, popularity seeking, seated on the back ofj Arthur 'Tappan, or the notorious hfi the people of ho South recollect this vole of Martin Van Buren, John C. CalhounJ and'IIenry Clay. MR CLAY'S NEXT MOVE.

Wo are advised by the particular friends of Mr Clay, that his next move is to be upon North Carolina next Spring is the time dc sigoated. It is to be hoped that he will not taken sober second th night and disap point us. It is a fact, and au unaccouutabl oue to us, that wherever be makes his appear nnce before au election, the certain defeat his parly is lh4 consequence. Since his re tiring to trie shades ot Ashland, he has veu lured into Ohio and Louisiana, and both thes States have put their veto upon him. Mr Clay has to say the least of if, the kind est of friends, 'in York, (interior); the? administered thirty barrels of salt at one dose.

then tried the sugar of Louisiana, but the efj fects have been disastrous, completely using htm up and as a dernier resort, he will tr the "l.ir, pilch, and turpentine" of North Car olina next Spring. The "Committee" are uu are of one thing, that his visit will be at tended with fatigue and inconvenience. Jeware of another consequence. The peo pie of the "Old North State 'T have not for gotten his: connection with John jQuincj Adams, and the courso of his administration relative-to the. West India trade.

This wa of vital importance to the tar, pitch, tur pentine," and every other of her productions! and affected her more than any other State in the Union. The voice of North Carolina, hope, will yet bo heard in a toue not to misunderstood, that the Black leg has no abid ing place in theheart3 of our honest people. "THE BEGINNING AND THE END OF THE 27th CONGRESS; OR, A TALL SPECIMEN OF WHIG ECONOMY. It is pretty generally admitted that the last House of Represents! ievs was a whig bocw by something like 30 or 40 majority. Oue of its first acts, at (he celebrated extra sessioi was to pass the following resolution "Resolved, That the House now proceed l.i lh frf in rf Printer nf thia Kmitto frr tWa 27th Congress, whose compensation shall ue twenty per cent less than the prices fixed Wy toe joiut resolution of 1819." The House immediately proceeded into ah election, and elected Messrs Gales St Seaton, editors of the National Intelligencer, an with this resolution staring them in the face, ihey became its Printers thereby agreein to perform the work in compliance with ils icqnishions.

At the close of the last sessior however, they took this all back and complete -h swallowed their owu words thereby pacing Gales Seaton good whig) 'the prices fixed by the joint resolution of 1819," or 23 per cent more than they offered to do the prin -ing for, and 15 per. cent more than the ei -travagant locofocos paid Blair Rives the vuugresa. auu wubi i amount think ye that your economical whij Reptesentatives feathered Gates Seaton nest with Forty thousand dollars, in an about. This was the Ia6t kick of whiggery the lying ick. The Fayetfeville1 Observer, speaking of the late elections in I Georgia and Maryland, gives all the glory of the re sults to Henry Clay.

It says "It is und lu banner, with an express reference to election, the battle has been fought." The whigs, then, admit theyare not fighting for but merely to elect a man that the next contest for President on the part, to be a mere scramble for office, regarc -tessofprinciplel-Afccfc.

1 be (congressional (jr lobe I uu.de up of the da proceedings of the two Houses "of Conirreps The speeches of the members are condensed, to bring them into a readable length. All the resolutions offered, or motions made, are given in the mover's own words; and the eas and nays on all the im portant question. It is prioieiJ with snmll typ" brevier and nonpareil on a doubSe royal atievt. in quarto form, each number containing 16 royal quarto page. It is printed as fast as the buines oone in Congress furnish matter enough for a number.

The first four weeks of a session usually furnish matter enough for one number a week and the balance of the session enough for two or three numbers week. The approaching session of Congress will be a long one, mid will furnish matter enugh, we suppose, for fifty or sixty nu hers. num- The Appendix is made up of the President's annua! message, the reports of the principal officers of the Government that accompany it, and all tbe Ion speeches ol members ol written out or revised by lhems'lve. Ir is printed in th sa ne form as iheCongri'SsionalGlobc, and usually makes about the same number of paes. There are not so many numbers -published thv first weeks of a session, as there are numbers of tbe Congressional because ibu nlemberg are slow in writing out their porschca Cut ttwarria the closo of a ses-rion the numbers ore published more frequently than the Congressional Glolx.

Each of tins woiks is complete iri itself; but it is necessary for every subscriber who desires a full knowledge of Ihe proceedings of Congress, to have both because, then, if there should be any am-biguity in 'he synopsi of tho speech, oi any denial ot its-cirrectness, as pub fished in the Congression al Globe, the reader may turn to the Appendix to see tbe speech at length, corrected by the member himself. Now, there is no source but the Congressional Globe and Appendix, Ironi which a person can obtain a full history of the proceedings of Congress. Gales Seaton 's Register of -Debat' which con tained a history, was suspended in the year 1837, and has not since been resumed. It coft about five times as, much for a session a tho Congressional Globe and Appendix, and did not contain an equal amouut of maiiur, a great portion of the current proceeduifrr bcina omitted. Complete indexes to both the Congressional Globe and A ppendix are printed at the close of ach session, and sent to all subscribers for I hem.

The reports ol tho Congressional Globe aod Appendix are not in the least degree affected by toe party bias of the dtors. Ihey are given precise ly as written out by the Reporters and tbj Mem bers themselves, and areaubjsct to the revision and correction ot the speakers. Both Houses of Congress take the Congressional Globe and Appendix for their committee rooms, and for the libraries ot Congress. So confident are we that all who subscribo for these works, will be pleased with them, that we hereby plediaour Selvi to take them back and refund the money to all who may be dissatisfied. The approach of a Congress who will discuss for the Amen can people all the roost imports nl question ever entertained by tbe National Couneils, and new and extraordinary measures never before fully ventured upon, has induced tho publishers of the lobe to make greater and better preparation than heretofore for reporting and publishing the ana provceuiugs or me uexi session.

i stronger corps of reporters, new type, and finer paper, will be provided, to present, in tha'best man ner, the debates and doings of the representation of the Union, which assembles under excitmv circum stances, very widely differing from lha state of things encountered by any previous Congress. Hie executive power is at war with both the great par lies that compose the Congress and one ol these will have the ascendency in the Senate, while tbe olher holds the power in the recent-chosen popular In this attitude Congress will meet, to deal with tho most interesting topics which have ever invoked its wisdom. It will find the whole revenues of the country in the hands of irresponsi ble functionaries, In whom no party confides. It will find an oppressive tana robbing the great mass ot tne people an'i ti win una i monstrous moneyed and speculating interest strug ding to build up another independent taxin" power in an incorporaiea eaiaoiimmeiu giving, as a vested right, to certain classes, authority to counterfeit for the nation a currency forbiddon by tho Constitution. It will find political agitators in Congress at work tor presidential aspirants, urging tha distribution of the national domain, and tho assumption of State debts, as a means of ealiating in their political designs all the classes who lok to distribution as perpetuating an excessive tariff, to assumption as annreciatm? their stocks and creatine a na tional debt opening a new field of speculation, of which a national bank I considered uecessary, as lha grand stimulator.

With all thesa vast issues will ba Involved the question of tho nxl Presi. dency, on which it is supposed every result will depend. In such a crisis, it ts proper that the poopla of very district In tne Union ba well inlormetl of tha course pursued by its particular representative, and of the bearing of all (ha discussions in Congress, and of all its proceedings. Tho important topics opened up in Congress will, wo have no doubt, greatly protract tho session, and consequently increase Ihe volume of our reports. Tim Congressional Globe ot the last long session (made up of lha proceedings, including tha votes and a synopsis of the discussion) extended to almost a thou sand quarto pages, small print.

Tho Appendix of speeches, revised or written out by tho speakeis, consisted also of about one thousand quarto pages. Theao Volumes wira furnished for I each. The same amount of matter reported and printed at the usnal prices, could not bo afforded for less than 10 per volume. The matter, being prepared for our newspaper, wa were enabled to transfer it and convert it into the book form and sell it at the re-duccd subscription price. But the volume of the reports, increased by the long session ol Congress, mide tha cost ot the paper alone nearly equal lo the price at which tho volume was sold.

The publishers made nothing on their work. Anticipating that the approaching session will not be shorter than the long one of the 87th Congress, wa had determined to raise the prico of tho Congressional Globe and Appendix to $2 each; and, to justify this enhanced prico, incurred new expenses lo add to the value of tho work. But, being impressed with the importance of spreading information a-mong tho people, on the eve of an election fraught wllli such consequences to tha country as that of the next Presidency, we have resolved lo adhere to tho old price of I for tho Congressional Globe, and 81, for tha Appendix of speeches, to all subscribers up to the I st of Jannary noxt. After that day, (Jie price will be for each. As some persons who may receive this prospectus rnay wish to subscribe for our regular papers.

through which wo speak to members of Congress and their constituents, wo will hero state that we publish a daily paper at Si a semi -weekly paper at to; and a weekly paper, wiffi a complete index to It, at f2 a year, payable in advance. TERMS. For tho Congressional Globe, $1 per copy. For the Appendix, I per copy. Six copies of either of ihe above work will be sent for twelve copies for IU ancFso on iu proportion for a groatar number.

Payments may transmitted by mail, postage paid, at our risk. By a rule of the Post Office Department, postmasters are permitted to frank letters written by themselves, containing money for sub scriptions, The notes ofany bank, current where a subscri ber resides, will be received by us at par. To insure all the numbers, the subscript ions should be in Washington by tho 10th of December next, at farthest. IXZF No attention will be paid to any order, un less tbe money accompanies it.

This is only saying that humbug is still humbug any way you choose to fix it. This part of the weather leicg! settled we will venture a step or two further.

Humbug, iu this pepper and ginger sense, is causative of much gammon, active as the greased end of perpetual motion, creative of promises and pancakes. This is both sworn to and affirmed in affirmed in affirming that humbug is a member of the regular army, Our uotiou of being a member of the regular army is our faith in factious and faith isj the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. But our notion of something I that is, is pur notion of a jackass j-for a jackass, and not only that is to jsay, is but a jackass, physically conveys precisely our notion of cause, kicking, and causative force, and exists independent of individuals so does a meeting-house."
