It is farther "Down East" than either of the twenty-six to say nothing of Texas and California. It grows larger pine timber, and more of it; the fittest hog, the largest squashes nnd the prettiest girls in all creation are found within its borders. Speaking of this remind t's of our old friend, Ethan Spike, up in Oxford county. Ethan's a team altogether, and has ckinned more bears than any other man in the State besides hold ing a justice of the Peace's commission. A few years ago he was a candidate for the Le gislature, and during the etimpatgn found it ne cessary to come to Portland. It was his first visit to the city, nnd lie saw a good many strange things nnd had a number of queer ad ventures, all of which he afterwards related to us. And although it may be a breach of confi dence, we will venture to let the reader have one of them as nearly as possible in Ethan's own language. Portland,' said he, 'is the all dnrndest place I ever seed. 1 was down there in '33, to see a little about my goin' to the I.egislatoor, end such a rum time as I had you never heer'd tell oi. Did I ever tell you about the ice-cream scrape I had 1 We answered in the negative, and he resu med Wal, I'd bin down thar two or three daya, pokin' about in every hole an' corner, an'thought I'd seed jist every thing thar was to be seed, lint one day towards sun-dnwn I was going by a shop in Middle street that looked wonderfully slick there was all manner of candy an' pep permints an' jessamin's an' what nots at the win ders. An' thin thnr war ignn with good let ters on to them, hnngin' round the door, telliti' how they sold Soda, Mead, an' Ice-creiim thar. I snys to myself, I have heern a good deal about this 'ere ice-cream, an' now I'll be darned if I won't see what they're made on. So I puts my hands into my pockets an' walked in kinder careless an' says to a chap standing behind the counter 'Do yer keep any ice-creams here !' Yes, sir,' says he, 'how much '11 you have V I considered a minit an' eay I, 'a pint, sir. ' The young feller's face swelled out, an' he like to hav' laughed right out, but arter a while he asked 'Did you say a pint, sir 1 Surtin' saya I, 'but p'raps you don't retail so I don't mind takin'a quart.' Wal, don't you think the feller snorted right out: Tell yer wh3t, it made me feel sort o'pi eon, an' I give him a look that made him look sober in about a minit, an' when I clinched my fist and look so at hi.ii, (here Mr. Spike favored us with a most diabolical expression) he hauled in his horns about the quicke.-t, an' bunded me a pint of the stuff as perlite as could be. Wal, I tasted a spoonful of it, an' found it as cool as the noth side of Dothcl hill in Jinooary, I'd half a mind to spit it out, but jist then I seed the confectioner chap grinnin behind the door, which riz my spunk. Gall sma.-hitall, think I, I'll not let tUt white-livered monkey think I'm afeard I'll tat the darned stuff if it freeze my in'ards. I tell yer what, I'd rather skinned a bearor whopped a wild cat, but I went it. I eat the whole in about two minit. Wal, in about a quarter of an hour I began to feel kiudergripey about here,' continued E than, pointing to the lower parls of his stomach 'an' kept on feelin' no better very fast, till at ! last it seemed ng though Id'd pot a steam ingine awin' shingles in me. 1 sot down on a cheer an beul myxelt up like a nut-eraekcr, thinkin' I'd grin an' hear it ; but I couldn't set still, I twisted and squirmed about like an angle worm on a hook, till at last the chap as in ne the cream, hn had heen lookm' on snickerin says tu me, '.Mister,' says he, 'wh it ails yer V 'Ails me!' says I, 'that ere darned stuff of your'n is freerin' up my daylight,' saya I. 'YiU eat too much,' saya he, '1 tell yer 1 didn't tcreatned I, 'I know what's a'nuf an w hat's too tiuicli without askin' you,' an' if you don't leave off snickerin' I'll spile yer face. He cottoned right doun, an' said he did'nt mean any hurt, an' asked ine if 1 hadn't belter take some gin. I tuld htm I would. So 1 took a purl) good horn anil led the shop. 'Arter I got out,' continued Ethan, 'I felt bet ter fur a ininnitor so, but I hadn't gone fur, a tore the gripe took me agin', so I went into anuther shop an' took some more gin ; then I st doun on the State Douse steps an' then I sot an' sot, but didn't feel daru'd a mite better. I begun to think I wua goin to kick the bucket, an' then I thought of father and muther an of old Spank or that's father boss- snd when I thought I should never see 'em agin, I fairly blubblered. Out then 1 happened to look up an' see a dozen boy grinin' sn'larfin'at ine; 1 tell yer what, it riz my dander -that had got down below ncro rite up agin. I eipung at 'em like wild cat, hollerin'out that I'd shake their tarnal gizzardB J out an' the way the littel devils scire pered wis AND SHAMOKIN JOURNAL: majority, the ital principle of Republic, f,om which BunbUry, Iforthumberland Co. caution to nobody. But after the 'citement of the roco was over, I felt wus agin, an I couldn't help groanin' 'an' screeching aa I went along. At last I thought I'd go to the theatre, but a fore I got there the gripes got so strong that I had to go behind a nieetin-'us an lay down an' roll an holler. Arter while I got up an' went into a shop un cat half a dollar's wurth of biled sisters with four pickled cow cumbers and wound up with a glass of brandy. Then I went into the theatre and seed the piny, but I felt so tarnally that I couldn't tee any fun in 'em, for don't think the 'ister an' the cowcumbers dun ine any good. I sot down, lade down un stotaJ up, but still it went on gripe, gripe. I groaned all the time, an' once in a while I was obleeged to screech kinder easy. Everybody stared at me, and somebody called out 'turn him out!' once or twice. But at last just as the nigger Othello was goin' to put the piller on his wife's face to smother her, there cum sich a twinge through me, that I r'ally thought I was bustin' up, an' I yelled out 'Oh dear! oh scissors!' so loud that the old theatre rung agin. Sich a row you never seed: the nigger dropped the piller, snd Deuteronomy or what you call her there his wife jumped of? the bed un run, while e very body in the theatre was all up in a muss, some larfing, some swearin'. The upshot of it was, the perlise carried me out of the theatre un told me tn make myself sca'ce. Wal, os I didn't feel any better I went into a shop close by, an' called for two glasses of brandy; arter swallerin it, I went hum to the taverr?. I sol down by the winder and tried to think I felt better, but 'twos no go; that bles sed old ingine was still walloping away inside; so I went out an' eat a quarter's worth more 'is lers an' a piece of mince pie. Then I went back an' told the tavern-keeper I felt kinder sick, and thought I'd take some Caater He, a mouthful of cold meat an' a strong glass of whiskey punch, an' then go to bed. He got the fixtns, w hich I took an' went to bed. But, I tell yer what, I had rather a poor niaht. Sometimes I was awake groaning and hollerin' nn when I was asleep I'd better bin awake, for I had sich powerful dreams. Sometimes I thought I was skinnin a bear, un then by sum hocus-pocus t'would all change lo 'tother side too, nn the tarnal critter would be a skinin me. Then sgin, I'd dream that I was rollin' logs with the boys, an jest ss I'd bo shontin out Now then! here she goes!' everything would get revarsed agin I was a log un the boys were prying me up with their handspikes. Then I'd wake tip and screech and mar then ofFto6leep agin to dream that Spanker had run away with me, or that father was whopping me, or some other plagyy thing, til mornin". When I gut up I hadn't any appetite for breakfast, and the tavern-keeper told me if I was goin to carry on screaming and groanin as I had the niy ht before, my room was better than my company. 'I hain't,' said Mr. Spike in conclusion, 'I haio't bin to Portland sence, but If I live lo be as old as Methusalein, I shall never forget thut all fired Ice Cream." Something like a Newspaper Tne Lnn c'on Times, the most influential newspaper in England, was commenced by a joint stock Com pany.

The property is, at ihe present tune, divided into twenty-four shares, of which sixteen belong to Mr. John Walter. The political opinion of the journal are directed by the majority of votes of the share holders; and thus, as Mr. Walter possesses two thirds of the entire property, his voice a lone controls the bias of the journal. The val ue of the Times, in a . purely commercial point df view, is 312 000 each share being worth 13,000.

The Death bed or Lord Os-rOti, The following ia related by Mr. Barry, tbe interview took place a few days before the death of Lord Byron : 'It was seven o'clock in the evening when I saw him, snd then 1 took a chair at his request, and sat down at his bed side, and he remained till ten o'clock. He sat up in bed, and was then calm, collected. He talked with me on a variety of subjects connected with himself and family. He spoke of death also, with great composure, and though he did not believe his end was very near, there was something about him so serious, and so firm, so resigned, and so composed, so different from anything I had ever before Been in him, that mind misgave, and at times foreboded his speedy dissolution. 'Barry,' said he, when I fitst went to him, 'I have much wished lo see you t wlay. I have had strange feelings, but my head is now bet ter ; have no gloomy thoughts, and no idea but that I shall recover. I am perfectly col lected I am sure I am in my senses but a melancholy will creep over me at time. The mention of the subject brought the melancholy topics back, nnd a few exclamations showed what occupied I,ord Byron's mind when he was left in silence and solitude. My wife I my Ada! my country, the situation of thjs place my re moval imposible and perhaps death all com bine to make me sad. I am convinced of the happiness of domestic life. No man on earth respects a virtuous woman more than I do; and the prospect of returning to England, with my wife and Ada, give me an idea of happiness! have never experienced before. Retirement will be every thing tome, for heretofore, life has been to me like the ocean in a storm. You have no conception of the unaccountable thoughts which come into my mind when the fever attacks me. Eternity and spaca, are be fore me; but on that subject, thank God, I am happy and at ease.

It is stated in a foreign journal that Isabella Maria would be taken, by strangers, for a Nun : Her appearance is that of a somewhat thoughtful, sickly girl, with a conn tenance in which any traces of intcllectial superi ority or intelligence would be sought in vain Her education is deficient, but her memory re markable. She i laid to be able to repeat verba tim the whole constitution of 1637, which she had sworn to observe ; but what above all things is re markable in this Royal Lady, is her determined and all-absorbing propensity for eonfectitnary Her museum for these bagatelles extends its ram ification into every department of the Palace. The Queen herself is almost constantly eating iweat meats, and w hen in good humor, which is not always the case, she never fails to distribute her comfits and sugar-plums with a liberal hand amongst her ministers and favoiite. In the ear ly and middle part of the last century, when the powdered wig was an essential part of official cos tume, every clergymen of consequence kept about a dozen wigs, varying from each other in the ize of their curls, and the nnmber of rows. Thus the famous Dr. Tarr, when going on a visit, alwavs put on a wig suited to the importance ofthebusi nesa in which he was about to engage. The rus tics of the little village of which be was irtcum bent, all knew when he was coming down the steps of the Rectory House, w hether or not the doctor was on any particular husinesss, by observ ing the size of bis wig and counting the rows of cuils. Just in the same manner any strangers, when they see the ministers of the Queen of Spain leaving tbe Palace, can easily ascertain w ho are the favorites, by counting the bags of sugar plumbs, or the sticks of barley. sugar, which each carries in his band. It will perhaps astonish some of our reader to hear that the Spanish min istry has been changed thirty-six times in about ten years, chiefly through Ihe whispers of the Camarilla; but we may presume to state, that none of the member of the administration, though deprived of their place, have been deprived of their sugar-plumbs and barley-sugar., "Rn and Hi.ancme " These celebrated char arters of Eugene Sue's Wanderirg Jew, are said to be draw n from life.

He marries Miss Prettyman, is poor old Mrs. C. al ways prophecied he would dot nd straight' way -even before the honeymoon is over be gins to show "No. 2" that she is to be Caudled, and not to Caudle, and, in the course of these twelve new chapters, furnishes forth abundant proof that his "Nn. 1" had set him an example which he meant to follow, by turning- the tables on his "No 2." Here are the first two chapters r Mr. CAVDLIC'B BREAKFAST TALK. CHAPTER I. IIou Mr. Coudlt married Miss Prettyman, and how he "nagged her to death. When Harry Prettymsn saw the very superb funeral of Mrs. Caudle Prettyman attended ns mourner, and was particularly jolly in the coach he observed that the disconsolate widower showed that above ell men he knew how to make ihe best of a bad bargain. The remark, as tbe dear deceased would have said, was un manly, brutal ; but quite like thai Prettyman The same scoffer, when Caudle declared 'he should never cease to weep,' replied, 'lie was very sorry to hear it ; for it must raise the price of onions.' It was not enough to help to break the heart of a wife ; no ; the savage must joke over Ihe precious piecf s. The funeral, we repeat, wss remarkably handsome; in Prettyman's words, nothing could be more satisfactory. Caudle spoke of a monu ment. Whereupon, Prettyman suggested 'Death fathering a Nettle,' Caudle the act did equal honor to his brain and his bosom re jected it. Mr. Candle attended by many of his frfands, returned to his widowed home in tolerable spi rits. Prettyman said, jocosely poking his two firgers in Caudle's rib, that in a week he'd look 'quite a tulip.' Caudle merily replied he could hardly hope it. Preityman's mirth, however, communicated itself tn the company, and in a very little time the meeting took the air of a very pleasant par ty. Somehow, Miss Prettyman presided st ihe tea-table. There was in her mdnrrer s charming mixture of grace, dignity, and confi dencea beautiful black swan. Prettyman, by tbe way whispered to a friend that there was jut this difference between Mrs. Caudlcand his 6ister 'Mrs. Caudle was a preat goose, where as Sarah wnsa little duck.' We w ill notswear thai Caudle clirf not f verhesr the word; fur a he resignedly stirred hi lea, he looked at th tarly nt the head of the table, smiled and sighed. It was odd; but wMnen are so apt; Mis Prettyman 6eetned as familiar with Caudle's sil ver tea-pot, a with her own silver thimble. With a smile upon her face, like the butler on the muffins, she handed Caudle his tea-cup. Caudle would, now and then, abstractedly cast his eye above the mantlepiece. There was Mrs. Caudle's portrait. Whereupon, Miss Pretty man would say, 'You must take comfort, Mr. Caudle, indeed you must.' At length Mr. Cuu die replied 'I will, Miss Prettyman.' What then passed through Caudle's brain we know not; but this we know; in a twelve month and a week from that day, Sarah Pret tyman was Caudle's second wife. Mrs. Cau dle, number two. Pocr thing! CHAPTER II. 7ou Jlfr. Caudle leains lo shew snmcthing 'of the r ie ml that s in him. 'It is rather extraordinary, Mrs Caudle, that we have now been married four weeks I don't exactly see w hat you have to sigh about and yet you can't make me a proper cup ot tea. However, I don't know howl could expect it. There never was but one woman who could make tea to my tatste, and she is now in Heaven. Now, Mr Caudle, ht uie hear no crying. I'm not one of ihe people to be melted by the tears of a woman ; for you can all ciy all of you at a minute's notice.
