CATCHING TARTARS.
Some two miles distant from Boston, there
resides a physician, somewhat noted for his
penurious manner of dealing with those who
may chance to fall into his J'practice." Let
ma cite one of the many Incidents relating to
this gentlemen, which has happened during
h3 residence here:
Some time since, in settling an account
with one of Lis neighbors, the following items
were rendered in his bill. It should be men
tioned that he had a fiold of buckwheat imme
diately adjoiaiug his friend's house :
"Mr. To Dr. , Dr.
"To pasturing Bees on Buckwheat,
from Jnne to September $0 G3
- "'To time speat in watching said 'a
Bee3, 3 00
S3 C3
.' Such an account was of course rofusjJ pay
ment ; but the Doctor carried it up into "the
courts," one after another, but, after all, had
the pleasure of paying all the costs, besides
bearing the odium attached to such small pro
ceediags. Now this, which was assured by our corres
pondent as true ia a!l respects, is only equaled
by a like story of a somewhat similar physi
cian, ia a certain town in the region of "do-.vn
East," which shall for the present be name
less. The story is entirely authentic, and is
told in tha dialect of those parts by a simple
minded narrator : ' "
- "I 'xpect you've hesr'n tell of Dr. A ,
hain't yon 7"
"No. I never have."
- 'Well then, Til t;ll you. Tou sso one day
I met the Doctor at Simpkin's store, a burin'
some groceries. It was awful cold. I felt a
little hoirss, and my tongue was dreadfully
furred. So s-'ys I to the Doctor :
"My heal feels a litlle acheish like ; what
do yen think I had better do ?"
""Why friend S -," says the Doctor,
says he, "th3 best thing yoa can do is to go
straight Lome and soak your feet, and take a
Bwcat; 'cause if you don't," says he, "like
as not you may have a fever."
' "Says I, "Doctor, I was just athinkia' that a
little sweat would do me good, and I guess I'll
go home and try it right away."
Well, I did ; I went home, and took a bowl-
full of tansy-tea, bitter as gall, aud if I didn't
sweat like a beaver, 'taint no matter. The
next morning my head was as clear as a bell,
and I wis s.3 good as ever I was.
: Well, a day or two afterward I met the Doc
tor ; and after a little talking, says the Doctor,
ays he : ' . ' .
"Neighbor J , I've got a little bill
agin you!",
I locked at him ef, and says I, "A bill.
Doctor!"
" i es," says he, "a bill for advice, you know
at Sirupkia'd store the other day."
What do you think he had gona and done 7
He'd actually charged me tew dollars for tel
ling me to go home and take a sweat, which I
was jast going to do myself.
' "Well, Doctor," says I (for I didn't want to
appe-r small you know,) "it's all right; I'll
bear it in mind." .
Well, a few days after, the Doctor was pass
ing by my door ia Lis chaise, and somehow or
'nother one of the wheels got a little loose;
aosays I, "Doctor, ef you don't drive that
linch pin in an inch or so,, that wheel will
come, off." . .. .
-.. Says he "Thank you," and he took a stun
and drir in the pin.
, .Well, I went into the house and just made a
charge of it ; r.n i when he came along the
next time I preseated him the bill.
"Hello !" sirs the Doctor, says he : "what
on aifth is this for 7" savs he, ;
Why, it's for adviee," says I.
"AdTice !" says he "what advice 7 1 hain't
had noaa o'your advice."
- "Why, for driving in your wheel-pin and
I've only charged yon two dollars and twenty
five cents ; and ef I hadn't given you the ad
vice, it might have cost you twenty times as
much." .
"Well," says the Doctor, "the difference be
tween your bill aacLniiac is just twenty-five
cents." . t J . . -" " " '
"That's all yoa owe me," says I.
; "Well, I'll Liar it ia mind," says he.
-And I'xpect he will ; he's as tight S3 a can
dle mould, the Doctor is, and I guess ho is
able to bear it in mind !
We confess to a degree of pleasure ,in the
pgrusal of these "diamond-cut diamond 'an
ecdotes. They indicate that order of "com-i
pensatkm in nature," by which meaness bo
often Is "overcome of itself-" And, in this
'connection wo will closo with "one more of
the same sart," which is related of a Mr.
S ,aii honest and highly esteemed grocer,
for jaany years a rsident cf one of the larger
tow'53 of New Hampshire. - ; .
It seems that a man had purchased ' some
wool of him, which had been weighed, and
paid for, and Jlr. S . ; had gone to thodesk
JO t change for aliot which ht-d been han
ded to him by his "customers." While stan
ding at his desk, he happened to tarn his head,
and saw, ia a looking glass which was suspen
ded near him, a stout arm reach up and take
down from the shelf a heavy "white oak"
cheese, and put it in the bag!
Instead of appearing suddenly, and rebu
king thernan for his theft, as many a less re
flecting person would have done, thereby lose
ing his custom forever, the crafty old gentle
man gave the thief his change, as if nothing
had happened, and then, under the pretense
of lifting the bag to lay it on his horse forhini
he took hold of it, and suddenly exclaimed:
"Why, bless me, I mnst have reckoned the
weight wrong "
"Oh, no," said his customer, "that can't be
so, because I counted uith you, you know."
"Well, well," said Mr. S -, "we won't
dispute about the matter, it is so easily set
tled by just putting the bag in the scalesagain,"
which he proceeded at once to do.
"There," said he, "I oW you so. I thought
I must be right. I made a mistake of nearly
twenty pounds; however, il you don't want
the whole, I'll take a part of it out; it don't
make any odds to me."
"No, no!" said the victim, struggling in
the wicked trap which he had set for his neigh
bor, and stopping the hands of Mr. S , on
the way to the strings of the bag, "I guess
I'll take the whole."
And this he did, paying for his honesty by
receiving "skim-milk" cheese at the high
price of wool!
THE DE7IL.
Start not, most timid reader, at the name of
this thine old acquaintance: for why should'st
thon be frightened at the name of so familiar a
character? Thou hast known him from thy
youth up; a good-looking and courteous per
sonage, moves in the best society, is rigidly
scrupulous of his outward appearance, and
prides himself no little on his knowledge of the
human heart. Polit'j to a fault, with a voice of
the richest tone, and an eye of the brightest
glance; bewichingly by his smile, and entranc
ing by his eloquence; with a mind laden with
knowledge and overflowing with light, he has
ever been one of the most popular and influen
tial characters of the day. Full often has he
taken thee by the hand, andljd thee into green
pastures, and by the side of still waters, whilst
thou, poor deluded soul, imagined thyself in
the society i f one of "Heaven's elect."
And yet thou trjmblist at the mention of his
name and the very idea of contact with him,
blanches thy warm cheek, and fills thee with
terror. Mistaken soul ! On the pages of the
primer, and on the tablet of the miud, thisgen
tl?man!y and accomplished Devil pointed
perhaps, as a poor, fleshless body, gaunt and
grim, having eyes of fire and feet that are clo
ven; with horns growing from his head, and
barbed arrows from his mouth; with a long tail
of many fold3 behind, and a long arm with
many claws before; in short,
"a monster of such frightful mien,
As to the hated needs butto be seen."
I tell the, reader, such a picture is a gross
slanderer on the personal appearance of the
Dark Prince. He is "black, but comly, O! ye
daughters of Jerusalem, S3 the lents of Kedar,
or the curtains of Solomon."
Herein, thou should'st know, is the secret
of his power, the charm of his life. Deformity
has no attractions. Men are not drawn into
the snare by repulsive and sickening leaders.
Tbcy will not, unless barbarians indeed, wor
ship at the shrine of any monster. No. He
would lead them captive, must array himself
in purple and fine linen. So, at least, thinks
the personage in question, and he acts accor
dingly. 1. He comes in the gilded habiliments of
pleasure. With smiling face and lightsome
steps, he trips along, followed by a gay and
thoughtless host, who sing and dance along the
road to ruin, nnconcious of their danger, and
careful only of immediate and palatable enjoy
ment. Lured on, step by step, from innocent rec
reation to unlawful indulgence; from unlawful
indulgence to gross licentiousness; from gross
licentiousness to hiss of self-respect and utter
recklessness; vith besotted mind, and broken
heart, and withered body; their polite and fa
cinating conduct leaves them at the portals of
the grave, where a press of other business obli
ges him to bid them a polite and affectionate
good-bye, promising the only promise the
deceitful wretch keeps to meet them on the
other side of the grave ! -
2. He comes in the flowing dishabille of the
Idler. . With a jaunty air, a mind at peace with
all the world, an enviable indifference to all the
storms and cilni3 of life, an unwrinkled brow
and spotless hand he allures many sons and
daughters of industry from their toil, and soon
teaches them to look upon work as a burden,
and industry as a disgrace. Cunning and craf
ty art thou, indeed, oh Devil, with thy oily
tongue and bland address, and thou dost truly
erect thy busiest work ia the brain cf the idle
man. .
3. The Devil comes, also, in the sohcr black'
of hypocrisy. Gentlemanly, indeed, is he in
this favorite character. In cowl and gown,
with smooth facs and smoother speech, he
walks cautiously before the people, and gath
ers into his dark fold many a wandering sheep.
Sympathizing with all sorrow, subduing nil
passion, regular in attendance upon church,
londest ia exhortation and longest in prayer,
he soon w ins upon the heart of the credulous,
and ingratiates him into his black art. The
name of his followers is legion. It needs not,
oh reader, that we describe them to thee; for
thou knowest them too well already. Neither
is it necessary that we should show the too fas
cinating Devil in any other suit fromhis many
colored wardrobe,
- In conclusion, sec to it, oh ye people, that
ye look not for his Majesty as a horned and
bloated monster; but rather as a blooming and
accomplished courtezan. Not in rags, not in
deformity, but in purple and fine linen, works
har about thy paths, and lurks he about , thy
bc&rt. '
The Maine Law. It is my opinion that
liberty is a more sacred thing than the sup
pression of vice. Compulsory virtue leads to
no moral progress. I would rather sec all
mankind drunk by choice, than one man sober
on compulsion. Wm, North.
The author of the above sentiment commit
ted suicide in New York last week. In a cool,
calm moment, he swallowed prussic acid cork
ed the bottle and laid himselfdown to die. It
is the most deliberate suicide on record.
Poor North w as a man of 'splendid literary
abilities but with such views of human gov
ernment need we wonder that h2 committed
suicide 1
OIF" A love-sick swain sent a Christmas gift
of a pair of shoes to his sweetheart, accompa

' Dear Molly, I do as is my du-ty
Honor the shadow of your shoe-tie;
And now in the name of all the Muses,
Send you a present of a pair ol'shoe-cs!
