teeter .granted, mo -tho reprieve, and the
ll&sod, rather- a difficult one; was thoroughly
-learned.”-' . • -
-On another occasion O’Connell said to mo,
“ I was the only boy : who wasn’t beaten at
Harrington’s school; l owed this to my atten
tion,?? . ,
■ His Instructors at Bonay, predicted his fu
ture distinction, from the rare abilities ha dis
played while in that seminary.
.He said; speaking pf his first circuit—“ At
the Tralee dqmxcß James Connor gave me a
brief. There was one of the witnesses of the
other - party . whose cross-examination was
■thrown upon (the by.ttieopp'osite Counsel.' I
did,not'doi'as I have, seen .fifty young counsel
do—hamely, hand the cross-examination over
to my senior. Tthought lt due to mysolf to
attempt it, hit or miss! and I cross-examined
hhn fight well. I remembor he stated that he
had Ait than of a pint of ; whlskey.; whereupon,
, I asked him whether hit share was vat all except
ihe'ipewterf He confessed that it was; and
the oddity of iiiy mode of putting the question
waa very successful, and created a general and
hearty laugh.”
O’Connell said-of. .Cobbfltt, .that his
mind had not ah,extensive grasp; but what it
could my hold on, 1 it grasped with Iron force.
;He ,wis,.honesti"he never saw .more than one
side of a.subject- at a time, and he honestly
stated his impression of the side he saw.”
O’Connell mentioned that at the eleotion for
a King-of Belgium in -1880, which ended in
placing Leopold upon the throne, three Votes

Sir Jonah Barrington, which, if true, is rather
Wore creditable.to his ingetiuity tiian to his in

pledged hie family [date for a .large sum of
money to. ono Stevenson, a Dublin pawnbroker;'
and.feeling desirous to recover the plate With
out paying back- the, money, he hit upon,the
following device! to -accomplish-.his purpose:
He invited the viceroy and several noblemen
to dinner,and then went to Stevenson, begging
he might let him have flip plate, for the occa
sion.- “You. see bow I am circumstanced,
Stevenson,” said Sir Jonah. “T. have asked all
those fine folk to dinß, and I Wail borrow back
my plate for.tbis one day. lassure you.mydeaf
fellow, you shall have itagnin; and in ordortoae
cure its restorationto your hands, you shall come
and make one of our party. T tan iak one pri
vate friend; and you, as a member of tho Com
mon Council, are perfectly admissible. Come
'—there’s a good fellow,! and -you know you
need not- leave my house until you carry off
the plate along with you.i Stevenson, de
lighted at the honor of dining at the table with
.the vlcerpy, lords,,and judges, fell into tho
tray, and went to dinner. - -Sir Jonah plied him
well with'champagne, and soon made him po
tently drunk. At. a late hourhe was Sent home,
in,a job-coach; his wife put him to bed, and
he never aWoke till two o’clock next day. An
hour then elapsed before his misty, muddled,
recollection cleared itself. ; He then bethought
him of the plate—he started up, and drove to I
Barrington’s. > But alas! Sir Jonah Was gone,'
and,-what was much worse, tke plate was gotiel

-"We dined atßoscrea. , Theoidcastlo otthoi

O'Connell repeated the epitaph Dean Swift!
composed for one of its proprietors:
“ Beneath this verdant hillock lies

Buried bun in an iron chan — .

’ At .a part of the road between Kildare and
Rathcoolfe O’Connell., pointed out the place
where Leonard McNally, the attorney, son to
the barrister of the same name, alleged .he had
been robbed of a large sum. To, indemnify
himself for his alleged loss, ho tried to levy
the money oft' the county. “A pair of greater
rogues, titan father and son never lived,” said
P’Connell; “and the father was bu iiy en
deavoring to impress-upon every person he
knew .a ltelief that his son-had been really
robbed. Among others, he accosted Parsons,
then M. P. for the King’s County, in the hall
of the Four Courts. “Parsons [ Parsons, my
dear fellow!’ said old Leonard, ‘ did you hear
of my son’s robbery I’ < No,’ answered Par
sons, quietly, < I did not—who did he rob V ”

Remarkable Memory of » Jfo&tor—A Carious
fhwe* _ ,
Ib the year 1810, a young joiner, doing business
on the corner of Pelham and Cherry streets, in this
oity, became involved in his pecuniary affairs to an
extent that rendered it necessary for him to ask the
indulgence of his creditors,; and many of them
signed a release. In the course of the following
year (1811) he obtained a discharge from his debts
under the State insolvent law, wnen. the . Hon. R.
0. Van Wyck was recorder. Shortly afterward this
yonng joiner loft the oity for O&ynga, in this State,
where he obtained employment for a while, at one
dollar per day. Her© hb became acquainted with
Jethro wood, the inventor of the cast-iron plough,
and for whom he then wont to, work, made hU pat
terns,' and’ erected a small iron-foundry, using a
horse to drive hu bellows.-. He then manufactured
J and peddled the Wood plough for about five years,
atthe expiration of which period he removed to
Cojumbus, Ohio, and established himself in the
ptottgharid foundry business, which he has continu
ed up to the present time.
During the past year he made a quantity of
costing for a railroad company, in payment for
whioh he received a draft on a firm in this oity
amounting to nearly $9,000, when he resolved to
carry into effect a long-cherished wish to visit the
Empire Oity, seek but all his old creditors, if liv
ing, or some of theft children. For the past fort
night he has beoriitt the, city, actively engaged in
the endeavor to carry outhis intentions. He, how
ever, found but one : of bis old creditors living, viz:
Mr. Robert Edwards, of No. 387 Hudson street.
Oq calling at the residence of that gentleman and
inqhiring of him if he recollected a young man by
the name'of''Joseph Ridgeway, a joiner, who in
1810 occupied a place in Cherry street, Mr. Ed
wajids/whois now eighty year? of oga* replied: “I
have eome.recollection of the boy; .and I believe
he Wed rue something when he left ibodty, but I
don’t remembevhow muoh.” Hr Ridgeway, who'
is now seventy-four years old, then addressing
himself to Mr ? Edwards, aaid : il I was that boy;
and T hate now' crime tri pay' you double the
amount of that debt to which you refer.”’
. He tberi took from his pocket end unrolled a list
of .his old debts, amounting in the aggregate to
about $5,000,-varying is sums from $3 00 to, $224.
In liquidation of the latter indebtedness; ho banded
over to A living daughtcr.of his creditor the sum of
$448; to the son of another creditor he paid $230 in
dischargedadebt of half that amount. On offer-,
log toj liquidate ,tbe. last .amount -Mr. Ridgeway,
was referred: to an executor; whereupon he replied,'
“I want to see.no executor; l ! am legally dis
charged from the debt; besides, your, fathrir re
leosedme, and a debt of 47 years’ standing, must
be outlawed: ,' No,T obey the jaw of conscience,
and if ’any of ,my creditors are riot living, I pay, to
thejr children the respeplive hmoimte of my in
debt-cdne&S.”. , - ;Thishehas done with all whom he
has been able to find; but, with ’ the exception of
; Mr. .Edwards, he has hot found a single oreditoror
a representative of his eld oreditors who had any
knewldgq of Mr .Ridgeway,“Much, lew any claim
againptliiEa:; and iri aftoh arming these self-imposed
f he has pot Ift'&pingle instance token no
/ ac&npwleflgmehtof. the tool from any one that he
hodpaid the money, to.- J ; - . r
‘ jVe wourd further, take oooasion to observe, that
'Mr. Ridgeway hex not been induced,to take this
honorable step inconsequence of having more of
this world’s goods than he knows what to do with,
as might be tbc oase with others, or with, a view rif
B3tttbush|og for himself a good name among buri*.
,ness men-/ On the contrary, there is a mortgage oh
Mr. Ridgeway’s property to the amount of $lO,OOO,
while, at his time of life, amt without a family, he
has no particular desire or expectation of extond
• ing his business. ■ .
Mr. Ridgeway represented the Columbia district,
Ohio, inCpngross for six years—the Inst two years
of Mr- Yanßuron’s administration, and the entire
term of. the Harrison and Tyler administration.
It Would be well' for tho conritry if it were always
represented by men of Mr. Ridgeway’s stamp.

Vlously recognised by Sir Robert Peel, who, be

wife. Thatwife soon followed bim to the grave.
The pension has been continued to their children.j
-T was in tho prime of summer time,
An evening calm and cool, ,
Andfour:ana-twenty happy boys
Came bounding oat of-So boolv ’ ‘ •
There were some that ran,-and some that leapt,
Like troutlets in a stream.
Away they sped with gamesome minds,
And souls untouched by sin;
To a level mead they came, and there
Thoy drave tho, wickets ih: •
Pleasantly Bhone the setting sun
Over the, town of Lynn.. j.
Like sportive dfeer they coursed about,
And shouted as thoy ran—
Turning to mirth all things of earth,
As only boyhoOd can :
Rut tbe usher sat remote from all,
■ A- melancholy man!’
His hat Was off, his vest apart,*
To catch heaven's blessedbreeze;
For a burning thought was in his brow,
And his bosoM ill at ease :'
So he leaned his head on his hands and read
, The book between his kneos!
Leaf after leaf he turned it o’er,
Nor ever glanced aside;
For the peace of -his soul he read that book
■ In the golden eventide :
Muoh study had made him very lean,
And pale, and loadett-eyea.
At last he shut the ponderous tome; '
. With a fast and fervent grasp
Ha strained' the dusky covers close,
And fixed the brazen hasp: . :
“ 0 God, could Iso close,my mind)
And clasp it with a clasp (” 1
Then leaping on : his feet upright,
‘ Some moody turns he took;
How up the mead, then down the mead,
And past aahadynook;
. And lo 1 he saw a little boy
That pored book!,
“My gentle lad, what is’t you read—
Romance or fairy fable ?
Or is it some histone page,
Of kings and crowns unstable?”
The young boy ,gave an upward glanoe—
“ It is the doatb of Abel.”
The usher took six hasty strides,
As emit with sudden pain;
Six hasty strides beyond tho place,
Then slowly back again :
he, sat besido thp lad,,
Arid 1 talked with him of Gain;
And, Jong since tbon, of bloody men,
Whose deeds tradition saves;
Of lonely folk cut off .unseen,
And bid in sudden graves;
Of horrid stabs, ia groves forforn,
And murders done,in oaves; 1
And how the spritos of iqjufed men
Shriek upward from the sod—
Ay, hoyr.tho ghostly hand will point
To show the burial clod ;
And unknown facts of guilty acts
Are seen in dreams from God! ,
He told-how murderers walked the earth
Beneath the ourse of Cain,
With crimson clouds before their eyes,
. And flapaes about, their brain— ,
For blood has left upon their souls
Its everlasting stain!
“ And well,” quoth he, “f know for truth,
- Their pangs innst be extreme —
Wo, wo, unutterable wo—
Who spill life’s sacred stream ! '
For why? Methought last night I wrought
A murder iu a dream!
<( One that had never done me wrong—
A feeblo man, andold; &
I led him to a lopely field,
Tho moon shono oioar and cold:
Now bore, said I, this man shall die,
And I will have his gold! ’
“ Two sudden blows with a ragged stick,
And one with a heavy stone,
One hurried gash with a hasty knife—
And then tho deed was done:
There was nothing lying at my foot,
$Ut lifeless flesh and bone!
“ Nothing but lifeless flesh and bone,
That could not do me ill;
And yet I feared him all the more
For lylsgvthere so still:
Thero was a manhood in his look,
That murder could not kill 1
“ And lothe universal air
Seemed tit with ghastly flame—
Ten thousand thousand dreadful eyes
Were looking down in blame :
T took the dead man by the hand,
And called upon his name.
“ Oh, God! It made me quake to see
Such sense within the slain!
But when I touched the lifeless clay
The blood gushed out amain !
For every clot, a burning spot
Was scorching in my main!
“ My head waa like an ardent coal,
My heart as solid ioe;
Mr wretched, wretched soul, I knew,
Was at the devil’s price;
A dozen times I groaned, the dead
Had never groaned but twioe.
“ And nowfrom forth the frowning sky,
From the heaven’s topmost height,
I heard a voice—the awfal voice
■ Of tho blood-avenging sprite:
* Thou guilty man! take up thy dead,
And hide it from my sight.’
<£ I took the dreary body up,
And cast it in a stream—
A sluggish wator black as ink,
The depth was so extreme. ■
My gentle bov, remember this
is nothing but a dream!
“ Down went the corpse with a hollow plunge;
And vanished in tho pool:
Anon-I cleansed my bloody bauds,
And washed my forehead cool,
And sat among .the urchins young
That evening In tho school!
“Oh heaven! to think of their white coals,
And mine so black and grim!
I could not share in childish prayer,
Nor join in evening hymn:
Like a devil of the pit l seemed,
’Mid holy cherubim!
“ Arid peace went with them one and all,
And each calm, pillow spread;
But Guilt wa? my grim chamberlain
That lighted mo to bed.
And drew my midnight curtains round,
With Angers bloody red!
“ AU night I lay in agony,
In anguish dark and deep;
My ffiYorod eyes I dared not close, ■
But stared aghast at sleep;
1 For sin bad-rendered unto her
The keys of hell to keep!
All night I lay In agony,
From weary ohlme to chime,
With one besetting horrid hint, -
That racked me all the time—
A mighty yearning, like tho first
Fierce impulse unto crime!—
1 “ One stern tvr&nnio thought, that made
AU other thoughts its slave;'
Stronger and stronger every pulse
Hiatfaat temptation crave—
; Ijtill urging me to go and .see
. The dead man in his grave!
(< Heavily I rose up, aa soon
As light was in the sky, * ‘ *
And sought the black accursed pool
With & wild misgiving eye;
And I saw the dead' in the river bed.
For the faithless stream was dry !
“ Merrily rose the lark, and shook,
The dewdrop from its wing;
But I never marked its morning flight,
I never heard it ging; /
For I-was stooping oncto’agaiu
Under the horrible thing.
' - “ With breathlessspeed, like a soul inebase,
. I took him up and ran- 1 -
, ( There wob no time to dig a grave
, ' . Before the day began ;
In a lonesome wood, with heaps of leaves,
1 I hid the murdered man 1
“ And all that day I read in school,
But my thoughtfyoß other where!
As soon ob the mid-day task was done
Insecretlwos there;
And amighty wind had swept the leaves,
And sUii.the oorso was bare!
“ Then down least mo on my fa/,e,
And first began to weep,
For I know my secret then was one
That earth refused to keep;
Or land or sea, though he should be
Ten thousand fathoms deep!
1 “So wills the fierce avenging sprite—
’ Till blood for blood atones,
Ay, though he’s buried in a cave,
And trodden down with stones.
And years have rotted off his flesh—
■ The world shall see his bones!
“ Oh God, that horrid, horrid dream
Besets me now awake!
Again—again, with a dizzy brain,
The human life I take ;
And my red band grows raging hot,
Like Cranmer’a at the stake.
And still no peace for the restless clay
Will wave or mould allow:
• The horrid thing pursues my soul—
It stands before mo Pour!” .
• The fearful boy looked up, and saw

These lands were granted by the Government to aid
In the construction of this Road, and are Among the
richest and most fertile in the world. They extend 1
from North-East and North-West, through the middle'

or transportation.
The great fertility of these lands, which are a black !
rich mould, from two to five feet deep, and gently roll *,
log; their oontlgulty to this road, by which every fact ’
lity is furnished for travel and transportation to the";
principal markets North, South. East, West, and the
economy with which they can be cultivated, render
them the most valuable investment that can be found,
and present the most favorable opportunity for'persons
