And yet wo can eive no description of his case. Mr. B. informs ua that in January last, the whole interior of his mouth, as well as most of his face, was a mass of deep and -painful ulcers.

AN ADVENTURE IN HUNGARY* FROM THE GERMAN. On the third day after bis dcparturo'Trom Vienna, & horso dealer alighted at an imv situated at Iho en» tranco of a little town, which, to all appearance, was respectable and quiet. He recommended his horso to the care of the landlord, dried his clothes at the fire, and as soon as supper was ready, sat down to tho to* bio with tho host and hitj family, who appeared to bo decent people. During supper, the traveller was ashed where’he came from, and oh his answering from Vienna, they were all anxious to hear somo nows from,tho capital. Tho horso dealer, told them all ho know. The land, lord then asked him what business had taken him to Vienna, to which tho latter replied that ho had been there to soil somo of tho very finest horses that have over appeared in tho market there. At those words tho landlord looked very significantly at a young man opposite to him, and who appeared to bo his son. His expressive glance did not escape tho observation of tho traveller, who, however, took no notice of it: yet he very soon afterwards had cause to regret his want of caution.. Being in want of, repose, ho begged the landlord, a* soon as the sup* per was finished, lo show him to his room. Tho landlord took u lamp, and conducted tho traveller across a yard into a detached building, which con* talncd two tolerably neat rooms. A'btld was prepared at tho further end of the second. As soon as tho landlord had retired, the traveller undressed himself, unbuckolod a monoy.boll contain, ing a considerable sum in gold, and took out his pocket-book, which was full of Austrian bank note*. Having convinced himself that his money was right, ho placed both under his pillow, extinguished the light, and soon fell asleep, thanking God and alt tho saints for tho success of his journey. He had slept about an hour or two, whon ho was suddenly awakened by the opening of tho window, and immediately felt the night air blow in upon at this unforißon ohcrnnsUncc, the trav eller raised himself up in bod, and perceived the head and shoulders of a man who was struggling to get in. to the room ; at tho same time ho heard the voice ol several persons, who were standing under tho win. dow. A dreadful terror seized our traveller, who gavo himself up for lost; ond scarcely knowing what ho did, crept under tho bod as quickly as possible.-- A moment afterwards, a than sprang heavily into tho room, ami staggered up to the bed, "upportmg himself against the wall. Confounded as ho Boise dealer whs, he nevertheless perceived that the inlru. dor was inebriated: tills circumstance, however, gave him little hope, for ho had probably got intoxicated In order to summon up courage for the contemplated crime ;, besides this, the traveller hud heard the voices of persons outside, so that tho murderer, in oa*o. ol resistance, eould count upon tho oosislanco ol ms comrades. But bow groat woo his astonishment whon ho saw tho unknown poraon throw Ida coat unon Iho floor, ond alrotoh himself upon tho hod no had just quitted ! , A fow moments afterwards ho hoard Iho intruder onoro, and his terror began grad ually lo givo way lo reflection, although Ihi whole sflalr was quite incomprehensible to him. Ho woo just proparing to quit Ills hiding place in order lo awake Iho inmates of tho house, and ask for another bed in place of that in which ho had boon aouncoro nioniouily expelled, when a now IncidentoooUred. Ho hoard iho outer door carefully opened, end on listening, the sound of cautious footsteps reached |!u „r. In lfow moment, tho door at M, room opened, and IW9 figures, those of Iho landlord and tils ami. stood on tho throihold. , Kopp tho lamp book," muttered tho father, in a hat*havo°wo lo fear?” said the young man!

He remained motionless under tho bed, scarcely da-< ring to breathe. Tho son shut tho door after him, and the two wretches approached tho bod on tiptoe An instant afterwards tho bed was shook by & con. vulsivo motion, and,a stifled cry of pain confirmed, the foreboding that tho unhappy man in the bed had had his throat cut. After a short pause of awful si. lence, thodandlord said, ‘ ... V , “It is over now: look for the money. 1 * “I have found it under tho pillow,** said the son, “ it is in a leathern belt and a pocket-book.” : Tho murderers,.disappeared. Everything being now quiet, the traveller crept from under the bqd, scd out of the window, and hastened to the od ig town to inform the authorities of .what bad on . • i oo $ so happened. ...m,/ . . • Tho mayor immediately assembled tho military, and In less that three quarters of an hour the inn was surrounded by soldiers who bed been summoned to arrest tho murderers., The whole house seemed bu. ried in profound' silence, but on approaching tho stables, they heard a noise. The door was. immedi ately broken in, and tho landlord arl.d his son were seen busily digging a pit. ■ As soon as the murderers, saw the horse dealer, they uttered a cry of horror, covered their faces.with their, hands, and fell to theground. This was neither' from repentance nor the fear of punishment, bat they thought they saw before them thereat of the mur dered man, notwithstanding they heard him speak. There was some trouble in. convincing them to tho* contrary. They, wore then bound, and led into the out-house where the horrible deed had been commit- ted, anxious to see how tho enigma would be solved. The prisoners appeared collected, or at least calm and sullen; but when, on entering' tho room, they perceived the body which lay on' the bed, the son fell senseless to the earth, and tho father threw himself upon U with loud lamentations, clasped the bloody corpse, and exclaimed, despairingly, “My son! oh, my son 1; I, thylhlher’, am thy mur derer I* 1 - . Tho murdered man was, in fact, the youngest son of the host. Drunkenness was the only fault this young man had; and this night, instead of being, as bis father and brother supposed, in his bed* ho had gone out secretly, and been carousing with some of his companions at the alc.house. Soon becoming sufficiently, inebriated, and fearing his father’s anger if he appeared before him in that state, ho intended to pass the night in the detached out-house, as' ho had often done before. His companions had accom panied him thither, and helped him to climb up to the window. Tlio rest*requires no further explana tion. Nor do we need to add lhat tho murderers ex piated their crime with their lives; and that the horse dealer, although saved, and again in possession of Ijls plundered property, still shudders at tho recol lection of that dreadful night. Tho Two Joking Farmers* : BY BEBA SMITH. In tho land of Steady Habits, in tho good old days of early pilgrims, and in .the reign tot Blue Laws, there dwelt ,on tho banks of the Connecticut two sturdy - farmers, by tho TUompsCn and Jomks, whose eccontrid and . fun-loving characters formed a .striking contrast with ail their stern, straight jacket neighbors. Their farms were ad joining each other, and they always lived on friend ly and iatimato terms. They , would borrow and lend hoes, harrows, and plows, exchange day’s wont at haying and harvest, go to each other’s bushings, and join their teams together to break the road and haul out wood’ln the winter'. Their groat peculiari ty, which marked them so-distinctly from their neigh bors, was their tovo of fun and fondness of practical jokes. As the other neighbors were so dissimilar In their habits and feelings, that they would hold but little Intercourse with these sons of Belial. Thompson and-Jones wpre naturally thrown-upon each'other more exclusively for society,’and their hard practical jokes were • constantly played otf upon each other with the utmost good humor, and he that could joke the hardest was the best fellow. Thompson had a valuable sheep which was a little prone to gadding, and which grew ralljer fond of neighbor Jones’ clover field. Jones had turned the sheep out several times and remonstrated with Thompson against tho intrusion and. trespass.— Thompson only laughed, and ho must keep a belter fence or poorer feed* Jones didn't feel exactly satisfied with this reason* ing, and resolved, if ever the trespass wore repeated, to intlict a summary punishment on tho trespasser. On looking out early next morning he beheld tho sheep again in-the clover field, Ho drove tho sheep into tho barn yard and rfiught her. Taking a sharp knife ho ran it through ono of her hind logs, between tho tcncon and the bone hour tho gambler joint, and taking up the other log, thrust it through tho incision ho had made. Ho then, turned the sheep out and sent it hobbling home on three logs. . When Thompson went homo to hlB own barn in tho morning ho discovered tho poor sheep in this pt'dftioamonl, and having relieved her from this un. pleasant embarrassment, ho started off to give Jones a pioco of |iis mind. ' “Now, neighbor Jones," said Thompson, “I think you aro 100 bad. I con boar a joke as well as any body, but I’ll 101 l you what it is, this is carrying the joko 100 far by a great sight. , Iloro my sheep is ah most spoilt by having ono log stuck through thsoth* or. Now, Jones, how could you bo so Inhuman 7" “ Mo, neighbor Thompson 7" said Jones, I hod no hand in it. Why should you accuse Tho fact was that your shsop was in my.duvor field again this morning, and I \ycnt out to set tho dog on her to drive her out but she was so smart in looking out number one, that sho turned and run like Airy, and ov sho jumped over tho fenco she camo dowrva little on ono and stuck ono leg through tho t’other, herself. I had’nt ho hand in it, neighbor Thompson. That’s a wonderful smart sheep of yourn. WK*, when sho had only three logs, she outrun mim?V® four." , Thompson hoing'unablo to obtain any satisfaction, pocketed tho joko, hard as it was, and wont home.— Now Jones had a long-legged, long-aided hog about d year old, a mischievous and unprincipled animal, that wont about pokiqgjiis hoso into everything, and meddling with matters that ho had no business to.— And it so happened, that early next morning Thomp. 0011 found Jones’ hog in his garden rooting his vego. tables.’' He caught tho hog, and with a sharp knife slit his mouth open on both sides clour to his oars.— Ho then turned tho gruntor out, and sent him homo very much ohapfallcm June* now in* his turn was in a rage. Ho bound up tho animal’s houd as well as ho could, and than started off to give Thompson “ a real soilin’ out." Thompson saw Jones coming, full of firo and fury, arid ho mt down on a.log beforo his door, and qUlct ly look out hi* jaok*knifo and wont to Jones came up breathing hard with indlgnallbn. “Now, Thompson,” sold ho, “you and I are done. I’ll toll yon what *tis, If you aro going to turn savpgo I’ll null. I’llhavo nothing to do wltli anybody that's more cruel and brutal than a savage, Now, Thomp. son,''you havo ruined that hog of mine, He isn’t worth a sixpence. Ho isn't fat enough to kill now, and I never shnlPGo'ablo to fat him, now you havo out his mouth opon from oar to oar. . 1 tell you, Thompson, you and I aro done.” “Why, neighbor, how unreasonable you are,” said Thompson, very gravely, “the most unreasonable man I ever know, to accuse mo of such a tiling as that. Why,.thff case was just this; neighbor Jones. Your hog was walking oat this morning, and he oamb down this way; and as ho was . going by my burn yard, he happened to look thorough the fimee and soo my poor sheep, running about with one log stuck through t'other, and upon my word, neigh or Jones, ho split his mouth, ftom ear to ear a laugh- I in’V’ : ‘ ■>srrA Backwoods Jury# .

House, on the 241 h ull.j the Lord Mayor ,of the city presi ding : Doctor Gray, after somtfprefactory dbservdliqns, said'Jie he had been requested by the bomdiittee appointed at the last meeting to prepare ah ad dress to the American people, to submit the fol ■ lowing address for the approbation of the doan oil • li -Tu the Prcsident of the Uniled Slalas. —Sir,— We, the Lord Mayor,' and burgesses of the corporation of the city of Dublin, beg-leave to tender to you, and through you, to the Federal Government and the Legislature of die United States, our.deep and affectionate gratitude for• the j prompt generosity with which you placed, at the disposal of your benevolent citizens, the national ships, the Jamestown and Macedonian, for the purpose of conveying to our famishing country men, the supplies of food, furnished by the. liber ality of the noble-hearted people of your Republic. “To you, sir, as the bend of a Stale, which is foreign to the power to' which it is our fate to owe jallegience, obvious motives of delicacy prevent us | from expressing the emotions suggested by a contrast which here involuntarily, presents itself* Of that contrast it was not your intention to make any ostentation, and we will not farther allude to it; but no motives need prevent us, as Irishmen, who never can consider your, nation as alien to bur hearts or affections, from expressing bur satis faction that the government of a free people, who have so long.afforded a hospitable refuge to our expatriated' countrymen, should have set to the na tions of the world the noble example of .'aiding the ; private benevolence of Us'citizens, by giving Us shipa’of war to convey food to. a dfstanl people, . whose unhappy position gives them no national ; equivalent to return; butmust leave the generous . to be rewarded' by the approval of their i own consciences. ' “ We are aware, Sir, that this is not the first oc- 1 casion on which the generous sympathies of Amer ican have oul-poured themselves in liberal supplies for famishing multitudes inthisold worjd. We know that.many years ago, with an enthusi asm of humanity, similar, if not equalin amount, to that which now so nobly agitates your country, yonrcilizehs fed thepeopleofimpovenshed Greece. We know, that in the year. 1832, when famine wasted ihoinhabitantsof tho Capedc Verde Islands; when the old world was torpid to the.-suffering of those Islanders, who were perishing within its 1 precincts, and their mother country attended to their wants with an inadequacy that was cquiva lent to total neglect; the young sympathies of your 1 hew world, bound to them by ho political ties— 1 linked to them by few commercial relations—as sociated by none of the claims of neighborhood— 1 overleaped all distances, physical and. moral, and 1 fed that population gratuitously for months. These facts may lake from the peculiarity of the compli ment paid to ourselves, but as exalting the char acter of those to whom we are so deeply indebted • to, feelings to intermingle them with’ the expression of our thanks. Still we do believe'-—that tho condition of.our unfortunate country, does excite some puculiar sympathies among your people. Of this wo find evidence in the unparalleled extent of the efforts now being made In its behalf over the surface of your repub*, lie, and in the unprecedented conduct ofyourgoV ernment, in sparing ships of war for our use, at a 1 moment when the whole resources of your coun try are called into exertion, both by land and sea, 1 for the prosecution of the hostilities in which you ate engaged. That Hie people of Ireland should bo so often ox hibiled to tho world as mendicants, receiving tho charity of other nations, is deeply humiliating to us, so tbat.tho pleasure of rendering you ;our, (hanks Is dashed with gloom ‘and melancholy feeling*. To re turn thanks gracefully for favors, which, while (hey bless the giver, must in some degree humiliate the receiver, is no easy task—nor will you exact from our misery, its period execution. But ifit could bo easy in any case—it would bo easy in tho present. Your manner and words ara alike open and sympathetic, as your acts liavo been open handed and liberal. If there was any country to which the Irish people could feel pleasure in owing and ric- , knowlodging hn obligation .of this character, that country, Sir, would bo yours. You will believe, Sir, , that our present gratitude is deep-felt and abiding, and is measured not so much'by the extent of the , benefit conferred on our people, os by tho flattering good will evinced in conferring it. “To you, Sir personally, for the promptness with which you-sanctioncd tho not of tho legislature, and the wonderfttl rapidity, so characteristic of your np-, lion, with you had it carried into execution, wo tender our warmest acknowledgements —and re spectfully bog that yon will convoy to tho Govern, ment, tho Legislature, and the people bf the United Slates, tho expression of a gratitude, which shall never bo effaced from our hearts, or those of our childrens’ children.” JOHN GRAY, Chairman. An Apfotlno SdfeNff.—-The late Geo. Dunn, jai ler—or* as. modern magniloquence 'will hnvo it— governor of Kilmainham, was a blunt hearted Northumbrian who had witnessed, many affecting scenes in his lime. , Doing required to mention the incident, connected with capital punishment which had most affected him during his long experience, he selected one,so simple ami so touching, ns to prove him to have been possessed, notonly of very tender feelings, but of tho most correct and deli cate Judgment.
