Reader, I believe 1 must tell you a story about my uncle's plum-pudding. This was a condiment that uncle Samuel's numerous family were very fond of. You must know that he had the charge ofsoir.e dozen young sters, whom he found it very difficult to please. He was very attentive to their wants, and furnished them daily with fresh pies. tarts, custards, and other nic.nacs, in extravagant abundance. But the little fel lows, after a while, got tired of these, and began to cry aloud for something now, and something better. The manner of the in troduction of the plum-padding to the table of the dainty complainants, was as follows: They began anon, 1 say, to complain of the unvaried sameness and oldness of their mes imis; grumbling and pouting succeeded, and daily. increased, and pies and tarts were carried from the table untested. This pla. ced uncle Samuel in rather a mortifying and perplexing situation. The youngsters must be gratified—that was necessary to the peabe and union of the family. How should it be done? Uncle Samuel loved his nephews and godsons right fatherly; and the energy and precision with which he would lay down his cane, cross his legs, turn up his silver specs, and fold his arms, when thinking upon the difficulties attending his situatioaas guardian and provider to such a . noisy batch of children, manifested the interest he felt in their happiness and com fort. lie was sitting alone one day, worry ing himself upon this point, when he was - disturbed by a little fellow, who came boun eing into his study, exclaiming, with a yell of delight, 'Uncle, uncle, come down! do! here's mail that's got the nicest puddin— Oh it's is good! you'll buy it, won't you, uncle?' 'We'll See child,' said uncle Samuel; and picking up his cane, he followed his intruder down stairs. 'Dear uncle, do have some made,' was beard on all sides.. A pastry cook had en tered with a fine plum-pudding, steaming temptingly on a large platter. He gave Them 411 a taste. They were enchanted, manifested their delight in boisterous shouts. - 'What is your name, sir?' 'Nicholas, sir. 'Do you make such puddings?' made that, and have made many more. 'Will you live with me, and make my family a pudding like that every day?' will, sir.' 'Then go into my kitchen, and go to work.' The thing was fixed—uncle Samuel was relieved, and the children capered for joy, and good order and contentment were res to*. From that time the plum-pudding was on the table every day, and great was the destruction thereof. 'Now this , state of things was too happy to last long. You must know that uncle Samuel, in order to have some sort of reg ulation in his family, appointed now and then a, monitor, or moderator, whose duty it`was to see that every thing went on pro perly and amicably; settle all trifling dis putes, and exercise a little authority when necessary, to quell any disturbance, or pre vent misconduct. The monjtor at this time happened to be a headstrong, self-willed ioysterer, by the name of. Andrew. His 'intimate associates were, a bully named Thomas, and a little cunning, red-headed, - sneaking meddler, named Martin. These three, having filled their heads with a crazy attire to make an experiment in pudding niaki9g, is saited uncle Samuel, (who was corkgratuliting himself upon the unanimity, and good feeling i that prevail ed le his household fraternity,) one day, and it*eeded, by snarling and coaxing, in ob taining from him a discharge of Nicholas. ' did it: ihouted Anfirew with an air of MitliOietoriatiiilrtction and triumph, as he beaded ,Nishoias the paper that noted the dide 444 tarmiaatton of his services. He trotted It' without surprise or regret, and adtliediatelv left the house. . 'Now, Make a padding, said An drew. 'l've seed Nick make therdso often that I know I can' do it just as well; let% go into the kitchen.' All was confusion and disorder, and a general rush was made for the kitchen, each one determined to have a hand in the man ufacture of Andrew's pudding. Bruised shins, smashed toes, and aching noses, were abundant; for Andrew had forgotten his duty and authority, in the eagerness with which he desired to commence his experiment in plum pudding making; a desire to meddle with that about which he knew nothing. The manufacture commenced. A large iron pot was put over the fire, and partly filled with water. A tin pan was then set upon the table, and the mixing went forward vigorously. Every busy urchin had a finger In it, except a few; who folded their arms, and winking at each other, stood inactive spectators of the scene. Flour was thrown into the pan in ad libitum quantities. Rai sins by handfuls, and eggs dropped in by the dozen, as each one cracked a shell upon the edge of the pan. Spoons, sticks, and forks, served to beat up the delectable mass, and the whole mass was poured into a bag and tied "up; thiti was thrown into the pot, under which a brisk fire was kindled, and the whole affair seemed to be going off crackling. 'Goody!' suddenly exclaimed one. bet a fip we did'nt put any salt in!' To take off the pot, untie the bag, and throw in a handful of salt, was quick work; and the pot again swung with its treasure over the blazing faggots. It had but just got well boiling again, when another mut tered the suspicion that they had forgotten the sugar! 'Fact!' said Martin; 'haul off the pot. Francis, bring the sugar bowl.' In a few minutes the flames were again curling about the bottom of tho smutty ket tle, and a sputtering and bubbling began, that made the three chief cookies chuckle with delight. 'Martin, don't you reckon it's done? it's dinner time.' Martin ventured to assume that it was done; and the majority backing his assumption by an open declaration that it was undoubt- edly thoroughly done, the pot was taken from the fire, and a large platter brought for the reception of the pudding. How the little eager fellows did gather about the pot, clap their hands, and grin, as Andrew ap proached to take it up! What a dinner they would have! Andrew took off the lid. 'Darnation!' 'What's the matter?' "The pot's as dry as if it never had a drop of water in it, and the padding is burnt all to pieces!' Each hungry pudding lover shrunk sullen. ly away, mortified and vexed. What would uncle say? What would they do for dinner? 'May-be the top's done;' said one, remov ing the cloth. But glance at the revealed mass of burnt flour. roasted raisins,' and boiled eggs, confirmed each in the opinion, that there would be no dinner. They felt disgraced and chagrined. Just about this time, Nicholas happening to be passing, peeped in at the window,und smiled provok ingly on the long visaged group within. It was a malicious trick—and the boys could have spitted him upon the spot. The out breaking of their anger, however, was pre vented by the entrance of Uncle Samuel-- He observed the perplexity and discomfiture marked on each face, and soon ascertained the cause. Uncle Samuel was a man of few words, and very uncompromising when de cided. He quietly raised his eyes to the window, where was still standing the inex orable Nicholas. 'Will you make these children a little pud ding, Nick? You see their misfortune. 'Say when, and how big,' said Nicholas with an arch smile of triumph, 'and it shall be here!' Plum pudding is a very fine thing, reader, but it takes an experienced cook to make it. This by way of moral. YORICK. The art of Writing. The Rev. .1, Williams, in his Narrative of Missionary Enterprise,' gives tho following in teresting anecdote: In the erection of this chapel, (at Raro tonga,) a striking instance occurred of the feelings of an untaught people, when obser ving for the first time the effects of written communications. As I had come to work one morning without my square, I took up a chip, and with a piece of charcoal wrote upon it a request that Mrs. Williams would send me that article. I called a chief who was superintending his portion of the work, and said to him; Friend, take this, go to our house, and give it to Mrs. Williams.' He was a singular looking man, remark. ably quick in his movements, and had been a great warrior; but in one of the numerous battles he had fought, lost an eye, and giv ing me an inexpressible look with the other, he said: Take thatl she will call me a fool and scold me if I carry a chip to her.' 6 No,' I replied, 4 she will not; take it and go immediately, for 1 am in haste.' Perceiving me to be in earnest, he took tt, and asked, 'what must I say?' I replied, 'you have nothing to say; the chip will say all I wish. With a look of •astonishment and con tempt, he held up the piece of wood, and said, 'How can this speak? has it a mouth?' I desired him to take it immediately, and not spend so much time in talking about it. Onarriving at the house, he gave it to Mrs. Williams, who read it, threw it away, and went to the tool chest, whither .the chief, resolving to see the result of this mysteri ous proceeding, followed her closely. On receiving the square from her, he said, 'Stay, daughter, how do you know that- this is what Mr. Williams wants?' 'Why,' she replied, 'did you not give me a chip just nowt' - 'Yes,' said the astonished warrior, 'but I did not hear ►t say any thing.' 'lf you did not, I did,' was the reply, 'for ►t. made known to me what he wanted, and all you have to do is to return as fast as possible.' With this the chief leaped out of the house, and, catching up the mysteri ous . piece of wood, his ran i ,,tbraugh the settlement with . the chip 'one hand and 'the square- in the other, holding them op is high atkliiis arms could reach, and shouting as heNrent, 'See ,th e w i s d om of these English people; they can make chips talk! they can make chips talk.' On giving me the square, he wished to know how it was possible thus to .con• verse with persons at a distance. I gavo him all the information I could; but it was a circumstance involved in so much mystery, that he actually tied a string to the chip, hung it around his neck, and wore it for some time. During several following days we frequently saw him surrounded by a crowd who were listening with intense in terest while he narrated the wonders which the chip had performed. Cockroaches vs. Shin• Plasters. "How much havo I to pay you for my breakfast?" said a gentleman yesterday morning to the keepor of a French restau• rat below Canal street. "Seven bitt, sare." "There, take your change of that," said the gentleman, throwing down a pledge of the Second Municipality, which looked like an old tattered and pasted Continentaler, although only two days out of Mr. Deane's hands. "Sacre! I no want no such dam rotten° stuff as dat; 1 no take him no more, sere." "Why not? It passes current." "Yes sare, he pass too dam current for my use. I lock up twelve dollar and twen• ty.five cent last night in my drawer, and de dam cockroach he take him all, no leave me notin but fragment. He eat up Mon• sieur Nye, he eat up Monsieur Doane. Ho eat up de Second Municipality, he eat up my profit—dam, he eat me up next." "But, my dear sir, can you give me any reason why these 'dam cockroach,' as you call them, should eat up these notes in pre ference to any other?" "Give you reason? by gar I give you six, seven, eight reason. De bill he is so rag ged, so wat you call him rotten°, dat day paste him all up all ovare. De cockroach he like paste; he eat him, and he eat de bill too, and I make all do loss and lose all de profit. 1 take no more Second Municipality —Sacrel de more I take de poorer I get off.' The gentleman finding the Frenchman determined in his opposition, planked his Mexican casting, received his bit change, and travelled.—/V. 0. Pickayune. TOMATOES.—Mrs. Child gives the fol lowing directions for cooking this valuable vegetable: Tomatoes should be skinned by pouring boiling water over them. After they are skinned, they should be stewed half an hour in a tin vessel, with a little salt, a small bit of butter, and a spoonful of water. This method is for sauce' to eat with roast meat for dinner. When plucked green, tomatoes make an excellent pickle. An excellent catsup may be made of them, when ripe, in the following manner: The vegetable should be squeezed up in the hand, salt put to them, and set by for twenty-four hours; after being passed through a seive, allspice, pepper, mace, garlic, and whole mustard. seed should be added. It should be boiled do•vn one-third, and bottled after it is cool. No liquid is necessary, as the tomatoes are very juicy. A good deal of salt and spice is necessary, to keep the catsup well. It is delicious with roast meat, and acupfull adds much to the richness of soup and chowder. The garlic should be taken out before the catsup is bottled. ADVERTISEMENTS.

T HE Subscriber respectfully informs the Public generally, that he has purchas ed the Patent Right for making and vending Spring-Sealed Saddles of the Zig tag or spring in The Seal, And also a Spring attached to the Girth or Girths and to the tree. The saddle is made with or without a Pommel, just as persons may fancy.. Saddles made upon this plan are incom parably superior to any heretofore in use, in point of strength, durability and elastici ty, to the horse and rider. The application of the spring to the girth is productive pf ease and comfort to the horse, and protects him from injuries arising from violent or sudden exertions. The. Spring is, also aO - to LADIES' SADDLES. ! Krlt is deemed unnecessary tostato.any thing more.

THE subscriber wishes to inform his pat. rons, and others who may wish to pat ronize him in future, that he has recently purchased Mr. Callihan's Patent Right for the use dims valuable improvement in, - ing Spring-seat , s SADDLES. 2' Notwithstanding the prejudices-against those Saddles heretofore, he feels *tillable in saying, that he hopes to gain the , dence and patronage of ttie enabled, on the.prosent principle, to ensure all his saddles without any exist charge.— That a soft, easy saddle is &simple to all persons who ride much, and particul arly to those who may not be favored with 'very pleasant horse; I presume all pertionn . will unhesitatingly patronize the spring saddles,' when they will be enteral as long as the purchaser may deem nscessatji The elasticity of the Saddle acting rnhar mony with the2 - fiymetiy of the horse ard rider, not only'affords ease to the man, bui incalculable advantage to the horse.' All persons of judgment and experience must know, that a dead, unelastic weight on a horse is oppressive. The Spring in the Girth affords the following advantages: lst Moving or yielding with the horse's chest in breathing, no cramps or cholics or any die ease can rise therefrom. 2d. The girth will outlast two or three of the common kind, because the yielding.of the spring on the sud den expansion of the chest prevents the girth from breaking, and saves the rider from fall ! ing; many falls have been the fruits of break ing girths.
