A Sharp countryman outwitted.
stout middle aged man, whose app*
ance,showed that he was fresh from the
country, came into a store in Catharine
most yesterday, in evident excitement, to
enquire the route to the Police Office. His
apparent agitation induced the, owner of the
store, "who, like Paul Pry was naturalh
curioua to know," to.eg4dire as to the diffi
cuity he was laboring,,:puler;: He stated
that strolling through,Setti - street, he felt
something grazing his leg. and looking for
the (mum saw a man picking up a pocket
book, which appeared to be well filled, and
ma off with it in great haste. At the'
-.. mime moment another man addressed the
countryman respecting the transaction, and
advised that they both should start in pur
suit. The countryman thinking he had as
=eh right to the pocketbook aforesaid.
as•the Iran •who found it, was eaaer to ob
tain its possession. They fortunately found
the man on a dock behind a wood pile, with
the pocket-book in his hand. gloating over
its, rich contents of X's and V's. The man
whojnined our friend from the country, told
the finder of the .pocket book that he (the
citantryman) was the owner of the book and
money, and it must be given up to him, and
this our sharp country ran also insisted up
on. The fi nder, however, refused to do
WS, was paid for his trouble, and
wbe bent on keeping it unless he received
at least - five dollars. The countryman, ea
ger to obtain possession at so small art out-1
lay, handed out in double quick time , five
• dollars hard money from a buckskin purse,
which the finder received, delivered up the
pocket-book. and made himself scarce. The
genilenum who aided iiffinding the fellow,
also infortned the countryman that he cer
' 'was entitled to something for his
triiettle, and demanded five dollars also, ad
ditig,that be was then yielding up a fair
et tm to half the contents of the pocket book, ''
this t too, was paid, and the countryman
hastened to his lodgings . close by, went to
his - room, locked the door, pulled off his
cknit t :and drew forth the treasure in order
td 'hire' the pleasure alone by himself"
offitrinting it, his head already tilled with
the' ood he intended to do, and blessing
the fortunate event that "carried him to

cOntr i ymart . who knew but little about bills,
thebills of the Long Island Bank (he

A Negro turning inite.—yhe Fay
etteville North Carolinian says:-.-"Some
days ago we came across an old black man,
from over the river; who has the appear
ance of a negro turning grad ially white—_
his hands and face 'having large spots-re
sembling the skin of a .white personand
we learn from him that his body is spotted
in the same way, ' some spots being as
large as the-twa (lira hands. We asked
him several questions -concerning-it, and
learned that some time previous to the
appearance of the'spots (which appeared
gradually,) he was bitten in the foot by a
small snake, to which he attributes the ap
pearance-of the white spots."
Robbery at tittie Rock, Ark.—The. of
fice of Mr. Fitzgerald of Little Rock, Ar
kansas, a justice of the pe ice was robbed'
of $14,000 in bank! notes, which had been
placed with him, to bring suits upon.
Samuel G. Towbridge, formerly of Maine,
William M. Wilson, Robert Caldwell,
Amour Hunt, and: William Caldwell and
his wife, have bec n arrested as the robbers
$1,400 of the money was found with
Caldwell's wife. •
Sale of N. Riddle's Property.—We
were not a tittle surprised to notice in the
Philadelphia papers, that Nicholas Biddle's
great Palace, at Andalusia, was to be sold
by the Sheriff. The'matter is explained in
the Philadelphia Courier, which says:—"lt
is merely a matter of form, for the purpose
of making a legal .transfer.of the property
from the father to the son, the latter holding
a large mortgage Upon the property."
Of course the money thus loaned by the
son to the father, was part of the pros of
the "cotton spedulation," for which this
young Biddle was the Agent at Liverpool.
Mr. Biddle u ill now be really indepen
dent. lie maysnap his fingers at prosece

We would state for the benefit of for
eigncts Who intend to become citizens of
the United States, that in order to be en
titled to vote at;the next Presidential e
lection, it is necssary that they should de.
Clare their intentions before the first of
next month. The Presidential election is
held on the fifth Friday preceding the
,first Wednesiay in December, and accord
ing to this regulation the next election will
be held on Friday the 31st day of October
1844. It is thus seen that applicants for
citizenship should declare their intentions
within the time we have stated, or they
will he deprived of the privilege of parti
cipating in the next Presidential election.
Fatal accident in Detroit.—The Free
Press says that when Mr. Robert Green
field, an Engineer connected with the Rail
road Machine Shop, was engaged in remo

. of the new loco
motives, a portion of the machine acciden
tally fell upon , ltis head and killed him

The last number of the Butler Herald
contains about t wo columns in relation to that
Medal. We think theCaPting is making ton
much fuss about attteh-esmall affair, yet as
the De Kaib Gra;°`s consider themselves
wronged in the award ofthe Medal, we deem
it but justic to let our readers know what
they think of it. The following is an edi.
t orial article written by Mr. Zigler, who
is the Captain of the Grays. We must be
excused for withholding an opinion on . the
subject, for, that we have borne mi'itary
ctitles, we were superseded before we be
came scienced in the 'string measure.'
Mt, Denny, who was one of the corn
mittee to award the Perry Medal, was
not on the grodtrd the day the shooting
came off, and consequently did not know
what the understanding of the military was
at the time—whether it was to be string
measure or the nearest the lead. On the °
6 Mowing morning he appealed and awar
ded the medal to the Jackson Blues, com
manded by Capt. Hay,, who was one of
the committee-.and who was instrumental
in getting the medal. Mr. Denny awar
ded the medal as the matter was reported
to him, and therefore was not to blame
But will any man say that Capt. Hay is
not to blame 1 A member of the commit
