    N Taking the Starch out of 'Ern" ) ten spot, and as he turned away rental ,
A lot of idlers stood upon the end of ked :
a pier which ran out into the Hudson , "We nine much acquainted with yeu
river, in one of the . small towns near smart folks daoun here in York, but we
Albany, a few days ago, amusing them. sometimes " take the starch out of 'em"
selves with hurling stones into the broad , up our way—and p'rnps yeu wunt try it
stream, each vieing with the other in on to strangers agin. I reck'n eu
the endeavor to pitch a missile at the wont." he continued, and, putting on a
farthest distance from the shore, when I broad grin of good humor, he left the
a tall, rugged built Vermonter, direct company to their reflections
from the Green Hills, suddenly made
his appearance in their midst, and for a
while remained a quiet observer of, their
movements
He was a brawny, strong looking
Yankee, and was very decently clad.—
The efforts of the little party had been
exhibited over and over again, when the
stranger quietly picked up half a brick
which lay near him, and, giving it a
jerk, it fell into the water a long way
beyond the line which had not as yet
been reached by the foremost of the
crowd. At the conclusion of this feat
a loud "bravo!" went up from half a
dozen voices around him.
It wan a cold clear day in October,
and the men determined not to be out•
done, renewed their attempts ; but the
Vermonter without saying a syllable to
any one, continued to pitch the pebbles
far into the stream, which seemed to
annoy one of them, in a green jacket,
the apparent leader of the gang, who
declared that he wouldn't be beaten by
a " fellow right straight out of the
woods no how ;" and sidling up to the
stranger, he determined to make his ac
quaintance.
" Where do you come from, neigh
bor 1" inquired the other.
" Me 1 wal, I hails from Vermont, jes
naow friend."
" Haint bin in these parts long, I
reck'n 1"
" Val—no. Not edzaskly yere—but
up and down sorter."
"Yis—ao 1 s'posed."
" Yeas," continued the green 'un,
carelessly, and seizing a big billet of
wood, he twirled it over his head, and
it landed several rods from the shore in
the water.
"You've a little strength in your arms,
neighbor."
"Some , pum'kins' is them flippers,
stranger. Up in sour taown, more'n a
month ago, I driv them nre knuckles rite
atrat thru a board, ►nore'n a ninch 'naff
thick !"
"Haw—hew I" shouted his hearers,
the man in the green jacket laughing
loudest.
"May be you don't b'lieve it."
"Not much," answered the crowd.
"We aint very green, down here in
York—we aint," said the fellow in the
green jacket ; " we've been about you
see."
" %Val, jes' yeou look yere, friend,"
continued the Vermonter in the most
plausible manner; up . in aour caountry,
we've a purty big river, considerin—
Inyun river, ier called, and may be
you've heard on it. Val I hove a man
clean across that river t'other day, and
he come down fair and square on t'other
side."
" Ha, ha, ha !" yelled his auditors.
Wal,naow, yeu may laff, but I can
deu it again."
"Do what I" said green jacket quick
.
-
,y. 4 ,1 can take and heave yeu across
that river yonder, jest like open and
shut!"
, Bet you ten dollars of it."
" Done!" said the Yankee; and draw-1
ing forth an X (upon a broken down
east bank) he covered the bragger's
shinplaster.
"Kin yeti swim, feller 1"
"Like a duck," said green jacket—
and without further parley, the Ver
monter seized the knowing Yorker stout
ly by the nape of the neck and the sent
of his pants, jerked him from his foot
hold, and with almost a superhuman
effort dashed the bully heels over head
from the dock, some ten yards out into
the Hudson river.
A terrific shout rang through the
crowd as he floundered into the water,
and amidst the jeers and screams of his
companions, the ducked bully put back
to the shore and scrambled up the bank
half frozen by this sudden and involun
tary cold bath.
" I'll take that ten spot, if you please,"
said the shivering loafer, advancing
rapidly to the stoke holders. "You
took us for green horns eh 1 We'll show
you how we do things down in York"—
and the fellow claimed the twenty dol
lars.
" Well I reck'n yeu mount take no ten
spots jes' yit, cap'n."
" Why 1 You've lost the bet."
" Not edzactly. I didn't calkilate on
deuin' tt the fust time—but I tell yeu I
kin deu it"—and again, in spite of the
loafers utmost efforts to escape him, he
seized him by the scuff and the seat of
his overalls, and pitched him three
yards further into the river than upon
the first trial.
.. _
Again the bully returned, amid the
shouts of his mates, who enjoyed the
sport immensely.
"Third time never fails," said the
Yankee, stripping off hir coat; "I can
den it, I tell ye."
"Hold on!" said the almost petrified
victim—
And I will deu it—ef I try till to-
morrow mornio."
"1 give it up!" shouted the sufferer,
between his teeth, which now chattered
like a mad badger's—"take the money."
The Vermonter coolly pocketed the
Dreadful effects of the Tornado.
It will be seen by the following letter from a
highly respectable gentleman that the conse
quences of the late hurricane at Big Spring in
Kentucky were terrible.
To the editors of the Louisville Journal:
BIG SPRING, March 21, 184.9.
Gentlemen :—Our little village, last
night, about five minutes t 3 9 o'clock,
was the scene of the most frightful ca
lamities ever experienced. A hurricane
blowing from n little south of west,
passed over us leaving our town a sol
id mass of ruins.—The inhabitants are
now crowded into the few houses still
standing; most of the houses are in
fragments; three persons killed; three
or four severely wounded ; and many
slightly. Families were turned out in
rain and storm with nothing but their
night clothes, and without a garment
for their little ones. This morning,
fowls of all kinds are lying scattered
over the fields entirely stripped of their
feathers. The distress and ruin must
be seen to be believed; it cannot be de
scribed. Our houses are torn up from
their foundations, and in one case the
bottom floor was carried twenty or thir
ty yards, the family still on it. Truly
in the midst of life we are in death.
Respectfully, yours, &c.,
BUCKNER BOARD,
CORE FOR FOUNDER.-" Tho seeds of
sunflowers," says a correspondent of
the Zanesville Gazette, are one of the
best remedies known for the cure of
founder in horses. Immediately on dis
covering thnt your horse is foundered,
mix about a pint of the whole seed with
his feed, and it will eflect a perfect cure.'
The seed should be given as soon as it
is discovered that the horse is fownder

SUNDAY IN NEW ORLEANS.—The 12th
anniversary of the fire department of
New Orleans was celebrated on Sunday
the 4th of March, with a grand parade,
and oration at the American Theatre.
CALIFORNIA INVESTMENT.—Capt. Steel
of the brig Chalcedony, sailed from this
port on the 14th of October 1847, for
the coast of California. Just previous
to his departure he invested the whole
stock of his affections in a wife, which
he took out with him as a cabin freight
on speculation. The brig has returned
from her long voyage, and we are happy
to learn that Capt. Steel and his lady
are in excellent health, and that a fine
boy and beautiful girl, named respec
tively, Neptune anti lanthe, have been
passed to the credit of Profit and Loss—

Da. GRIANE-1 take great pleasure in inform
ing you attic effects of the medicine called .lx•
ygenated Bitters you had the kimluess to send
me. For some twenty years I had suffered se-
verely from humored Asthma. I was compelled
to sit up one third of the night, without going to
bed at all; and the rest of the time my sleep was
interrupted by violent tits of coughing and great
difficulty of breathing. In all my attendance
upon our courts I never went to bed in Northamp
ton in twenty years but twice, and then was corn•
pelted to get up. Now I lie in bed without diffi
culty, and sleep soundly. I took your medicine
according to directions. The violent symptoms
immediately abated, and persvverance in the use
of the remedy hos removed all its troublesome
consequences. The value of such a remedy is
incalculable, and I hope its virtues may be wide•
iy diffused and its benilicent agency extensively
employed.

I was filially induced to procure two bottler of
you, and I had not taken half a bottle before I

The only kriount Medicine that at the same
time purges, purifies and strengthens
the system.
Losnox,July 7,1840.
TAIL LE ROT'S Pillsare a new medicine which
has just appeared,and infant taking the places .
of all others of the same class. These pills are
composed of many ingredients, but the two print
pal ones are Sarsaparilla and Wild Chetry,eo uni
ted that they act together; the 0110, through i ,
admixture with other substances, purifying •
purging, while the other is etrengthening
tern. Thus those pills are at the same tiri he
and opening; a desideratum long a 9, 411
on
sought for by medical men, but never sted i„,
corered. In other words they do the i t
medicines, and do it much better tha
know of; for they remove nothing Irvin the
but the impurities; so that while they purge they
strengthen; end hence they cause no clebilitetiT
and are follow, dby no re.action. Dr. Le Roy'.
pills have a wonderful influence on the blood ; they
not only purify without weekeniup it. but they re
move all noxioue particles from the chl le hermit
is converted into fluid, and tittle make impure
blood en utter impossibility. Asthere no debil
itation,so there is no nausea or sickliest , attending
the operations of this most excellent of medicines
which never strains or tortures the digesti% fune .
tions,hutcauees them to work in a perfectly natur
al manner; and hence persons taking them do not
become pole and emaciated, but the contrary ; for
while it is the property of the Sareaparilla, units
as it is with other ingredients, to remove all that is
foreign and impure,it is equally the property f
the Wild Cherry to retain all that is natural er.sl••
sound; and hence a robust state of health is the
certain result of their united operation,.
