'CLEVER STORY.
On the evening of the-20th January.
1795, the city of Amsterdam was
`thrown into an unusual state of bustle
and confusion by 'the entrance of the
Fre npliiinay nder, Pic hegru. While
the Itri4s - with, piled arms awaited
their Sinew, and ratio,* the inhabitants
hastened to illumine in honor of their
'arrival, and in spite of the piercing cold
thronged to Welcome the tired heroes.
Amid, the general rejoicing one house
alpne remainerwith closed 'doors and
darkened windows., It was the dwel,
:ling of_ the wealthy.' merchant, Weer
`tielt,who,-. wholly occupied in 'his bu
siness; cared little for polnics, - still less
arrival: of the French, and was
; too careful of Money to waste it
;like his-neighbors in illuminations.
Wrapped in his furdiessing gown, a
seal. skin cap drawn closely over the
few grey hairs time had leftson his head
he hadwheelo his easy chair, close to
the chimney, and as.' he rubbed his
hands over the bright coal fire, seemed
lost in reverie, from which neither the
beer can, not long clay pipe on the
Table at his,aide, had power to arouse
,him.
All at once the silence was interrupt
ed by a violent ring at the house bell.
The old man started, .and turning to a
stout, red•cheeked servant, who, seat
ed at a respectful distance, was occupy
ing herself tali:hitting: • .
"See WhO i.it is, Jacqueline," • said
he, " that comes to disturb us - at. this
unreasonable • hour."
In a few minutes a tall young man
entered, and throwing off his cloak,
saluted the merchant as father.
Ha! is it-you, Wilhelm !, I did not
•
expect you back so soon•"
have just returned from Brock,"
replied the other, and should have ar
rived long ago, had not the road been
so encumbered with troops and idlers."
Have you seen Van Elburg ?"
Yes," answered the young man,
taking his seat by the ore, and he
consents ,to my marriage with his
daughter, but refuses to give more than
four thousand ducat's as his dowry."
Then he may keep bath ducats and
daughter;" said the merchant angrily.
" But consider, father--"
" Consider what?" interrupted Wo
erdoii. "There is nothing to consid
er. I know that at your age rove out
weighs gold; but the time will teach
you that.whin poverty comes in at the
door, love boon flies out at the wind,
,ow.
" Yes,r - fither," argued the young
man tatc,Elburg is one' of the rich
est men in the country, and sooner-or
later his daughter must have his for
tune."
"Tut—tuf!" said Wmrdep, " Van
Elburg knows well what he is about,
but cunning as he is, he shall not put
a bad bargain upon me. 'As ( for you,
As for you, Wilhelm, I have promised
to give you up my business, and now
'recommend your taking a little advice
with it never give more than you re
ceive, and always consider yourself be
fore other people in your transactions:
rely,on it, that is the only way to pros
per in business as well as love. And
now we will drop the subjek." .
•As he sat brooding in silence over
Irisidisappointinent, the house bell again
rang,
.& the tread of a horse's feet was
heard in the court yard, while the dog
commenced a furious barking.
"It is certainly a stranger, this time,"
said Mynbeer Waerden, " there is no
mistaking the deg's.bark."
Fie was interrupted by the servant
bringing in a packet.

he continued, " a very ace*ale coni.

You shall have them."
"Draw but the contract then," said
Woerden, " and w4n it is signed , 1

appetite," Then looking at Clotilde,
he-continued, "I have - come to, arrange
another - matter; too, which we can
discuss after dinner."
. It was in vain that, during the,even
int,. Warden tried every argument to
change his friends resolution respecting
his daughter's fortune.. After a warm
discussion, he was obliged to give up
the point, and the marriage was at last
fixed for the following week.
'Next 'day IVilhclm and his father re
turned home, the former could not re
frain from expressing some .curiosity
concerning • the cause of this happy
change in his prospects.
"What do you mean?" asked the old
man.
Have you not given up the point
about his daughter's fortune ?"
I, should have thought. you knew
me better,',' replied Woerden, looking
slyly at his son. But no matter—it is
sufficient that you marry the girl you
like."
Once more at home, the mer
chant shut himself in his office until the
evening, when he appeared with a
packet of letters, which were immedi
ately sent to ,the post.
On the day appointed for the marriage
Wilhelm and his father arrived at Brock,
where they found klarge party of friends
and relations assembled to meet them.
Van Elburg welcomed them with cor
diaiity,• but there was an expression of
care embarrassment on his face. that at
first made the bridegroom fear some
fresh obstacle - to his own happiness.—
The elder Woerden. however ...in no
way shared in his son's, anxiety, for
he could give a tolerable good guess at
the cause of his host's uneasiness.
" Alynheer Van Elburg !" he ex
claimed " what can be the matter ? Are
you unwell!"
"No my dear friend," replied the
other, " not ill, but in the most unpleas
ant dilemma possible—l most speak
with you immediately in private."
Is it any thing respecting the mar
riage?" asked Woerden. "If you
wish to be off your word, it is still
time."
" Not for,the world,"
In that ease we will pioceed to the
Church at once—you know I like to
have things regularly ; and as I came
here to see my son married, we will
finish that business first, and then I
shall be happy to hear what. you have
to say."
There was no remedy ; and it was
not until after the; happy pair had been
made man and wife, that VatiElburg
could succeed in catching his friend
alone.
" I am bound to deliver you four
hundred thousand herrings in fourteen
days," said he "and not a single fish
can I get at any price."
Woerdon could not restrain his laugh

bought them all up long ago."
." In that case of course, our contract
is at an end," said Van Elburg, look.
ing doubtfully at his friend.
" By no means ; or at least only on
certain conditions. We have this day
united our children, Van Elburg, and
shall leave them a handsome fortune
when we die, 'But as regards the pres
ent, matters are less fairly arranged.—
IViy son receives a capital business
while you only give yourdaughter-four
thousand ducats— Now as I did not
like tolmake the young people unhap
by by refusing' my consent to their
marriage I thought yod and I would
settle the matter another way. You
have to deliver four hundred thousand
herrings ten guilders Perthousand, or I
don't part with' a single tail. ' The dif
ference is • exactly .sixteen thousand
guilders, which 1 - intend you to pay
over to my son as his wife's dowry-.
Van Elburg looked rather foolish
during this explanation, but at the end
gained his possession, and even smiled
as he said, clapping the other on :the
shoulder, " You , have outwitted - me
Myn,heer Weerden; and I must pay the
penalty, so Say,no more about it. And
now let, us join our friends again.
Eight days afterwards Van Elburg

Dirs. Gen, Romantic Sketch.
The history of Mrs. Gen: :Gaines,
were it 'unfolded, would be seen to pos
sess somethiog of the romantic: , For a
long time her parentage was concealed
from her. . In 'early life she was brought
from New Orleans to the Middle States,
and for „many years lived in the family
of
,a COL, Davis. near . Wilmington, Del.,
passing under the name of Myra Davis,
as a niece or perhaps a daughter of this
man, who was believed to have posses ,
sion of some portion of her property.—
As her mind unfolded with the growth
of person," Myra naturally became in
quisitive on the subject of hee.lineage,
expectations, Sr,c., -but : obtained but little
satisfaction
. from her: reputed uncle or
father.. Davis; however, sent her to
the ,best schools, that she might re
ceive , a finished education, where she
learned French, drawing; &c. ,Arriving
at the age of womanhood, with a spright:
ly mind, a good person, and very frank,
affectionate and confiding disposition,
Myra became the object of interest to the
other sex, who are not insensible to the
charms of the more tender portioh of our
race. Probably the air of mystery that
surrounded her, did not diminish that
interest.
There was one young man in particu
lar, that 'was smitten with her charms,;
Mt. Whitney, son of Gen. Whitney, of
Binghamton, N. Y., a lawyer by profes-,
sion, an aimable and excellent youth,
and in the estimation of Miss Davis, to
be preferred before all others to a place
in het affections. To his proposals for
a union, Miss D. assented with a frank.;
ness which presented la strong contrast
to the feelings of her uncle. He was
evidently opposed to it, without, it is be
lieved, assigning a satisfactory reason.
Every obstacle, however, thrown in the
path of the lovers, served only to strength
en their platen] attachment. Miss D.
fled frost the house of her uncle, took
refuge in a seclusion which he m vain
endeavored to penetrate, and awaited
L with a maiden's modesty, and a lover's
anxiety, the arrival of her betrothed—forl
lovers will exchange pledges, though it
be through stone, walls or over tempbs
tuous waves,—made a grand mistake in
Meeting another gentleman by the name
of 'Whitney, who happened to arrive at
a certain place in a train of ears, in
which at the same hour she expected the
real Whitney ; but at length, after the
course of true love had run with rough.'
ness to which their young hearts had
been strangers, they were happily and
triumphantly married.
Mr. and Mrs. Whitney went to New
Orleans the seat of some millions worth
of property which she claimed as her
own, and which she contends is fraudu
lently withheld froin her. Mr. Whit
ney there investigated the matter with
untiring dilligence, met with usual obsti
nate resistance iwsuch cases, and was, I
believe, even thrown into prison. He
was not ilestineds either to recover the
property - Or to continUe in life with his
beloved bride. MrsJWhitney became
a widow, a youthful widow, and a sin
cere mourner. In this state of woman
hood, she was approached by the gallant
old General, who synipathyzed so deep
ly with her sorrows as to offer to take
that place in her affections which had
been occupied by her departed. Wheth-
er those substantial charms in expectan
cy had any hand in vanquishing the
heart of the old gentleman, it would be pre
sumptious in any one to determine, with
and, inspecting his motives. The frank
hearted girl, however, was understood to
have assured the brave soldier, in accep
ting his hand, that one condition must
ever be reserved. She was always to
have the privilege of eulogizing the char
acter, loving the memory and, descanting
on the virtues of her first and youthful,
ad libitum. Who would refuse such a
_boon ? Of late years the General and
his lady have been engaged in travelling
as Ihe ministers of peace and good will
to man, at times in prosecuting this
claim, involving an immense fortune.—
The law's delay has for a long time held
the result in obeyance. But if justice be
done, there is ' little doubt that Mrs.
Gaines will win the cause, and come in
to the possession of that property which
I sincerely believe has been'unjustly de
nied, her.
Mrs. G., is a lady of many fine quali
ties. Happily, among the list of her vir
tues is to be found perseverence, and ev
er-bueyant hope which have carried her
safely thus far. Should she even fail of
her - cbject, fortitude will not forsake her.
Resignation will then be , expected to
adorn the Mind which has hitherto been
equal.in every emergency. •
The, U. S. Supreme Court have deci
ded the famous case , of Gen. Gaines and
his wife itt their fa' vor; This makes
Gen. Gaines worth about $15,000,000
in property in New Orleans—the richest

IMPORTANT INFORMATION,
NT is a prevailing opinion among the enlight

is a mass of living animalcule, which have ta

matter how small, or how low in the scale of
animated nature, the individual composing
Cancer may be, they were so tenacious of ex
