in order to make some alterations as there was a ru

change the numbers! This ruse had the desired cf

pineeti me in commend of the whole correspondence
of the British Navy! I then sent the gig for the

any despatches i.e might have in charge.

several of my officers, we entered into general con.

cruising in that neighborhood? He said, to intercept
the American privateers and merchantmen; hut par
ticularly to catch COM. Rodgers, who he understood
had command dune of the Fastest frigates in the A•

this Rodgers was, and if everlhe had seen him? He
said no; but he had understood that he was an odd
character and hard to catch. After conversation on
several other subjects, I abruptly put this question to
him:
'Sir, do you know what vessel you are on board
of 1'
'Why, yes, sir; he, replied 'on board his Majesty's
ship Sea Horse.'
'Then, sir, you labor under a great mistake. You
are on board the. United States frigate President,
and 1 am Cam. Rodgers, at your service.'
'The dying dolphin never assumed a greater vat iety
of colors than did this poor fellow's face. --.
'Sir.' said he. 'you are disposed to he humorus, nod
must be joking!' I assured him it was no joke, and
to satisfy him on that head, handed him my commis

he saw the American ensign flying, the recleoats of

the Legislitere of this State to change his name, he
.
cause his sweetheart refused to. marry him while he
was called by sounlovely a cognomen. He was un
successful; and the parting interview between him and

Two weeks ago we published the amusing conver

Hanison, fur which his plea was, the sound of his
name associated so many offensive 'recollections of a
maw ling nature to his delicate sweetheart, that she
made I heti the only objection to a matrimonial connec
'ion with liim. On reception of Crabb's by
the Senate, the New York Transcript with its pecu
liar tact of turning every laughable incident to good
account , closes the sail tato. of the disappointed lover
in crabbed tragicomedy;—thus:
Now let us imagine lot a moment, what must be

1 an opportunity to effectinsurance upon their prop
erty, by a Domestic Institutions located among thern
seises, based upon. Domestic Capital, and conducted
by Directors, in whose prudence, integrity and good
faith; .hey can readily ascertain whether ,they may
repose that undoubted confidence and security, which
should ever attend an insurance transaction. _
- .
To persons whose property has, already, been
dammed, or destroyed, by Fire or Water„ them:hen
tage of personally adjusting gloss with rut institution,
AT HONE, will be strikingly - evident. To them who
suffered by the Great Fire, this pit - tinnier corporation
needs no recommendation. The prompt payment of
the whole amount of its Iosses—NEARLY TWO HOED.

guarantee of - future security. - - .
I t is the partnif all prudent men, however fortunate,
to anticipate calamity for the purpose of avoiding its
effects. To .abi as have hitherto escaped, as well es
' to those who have sustained loss, the. facility of pro-
tection and indemnity, offered by this institution, will
be the strongest inducement to, avoid the reflections
and regrets , which must be experienced by those wise
