The Yankee and the Ilooater.
Wt were greatly amused at a dialogue
between a Down-en eter and a Hoosier
from the Weat. The story is rather old,
but we presume will be new to moat of
our readers. They were respectively
cracking up their own localities and run'
ning down their opponents.
At lenirth the 1 loonier aaid:
Our land is so rich-why you never
seed anything so rich in your life: why
how d'ye suppose we- make our candles,
eh 1
. " Don't know," said the Yankee.
" We dip 'eiu in the mud puddle, aaid
the Hoosier.
, 44 Yes," replied the Yankee; "and I
guess there is so much mud in your dig
ging that there isn't many places where a
11. an could not dip candles in a mud pud
dle. ' I have heard of a man travelling in
your country all day long, in a road where
the mud was so deep that h couldn't dia
kivera glimpse of hit legs for hours to
gether." (
" Well, now, just tell us, Mr. Yankee,
if it's a fact what they do say about the
roughness of the roads down east. They
do say that . there are so maoy stones in
the road, and the wagons do jolt up and
down so all-fired ly, that the only way
people grind our plasters is by loading
the big pieces into a wagon, and jut dri
ving at a moderate trot over your roads,
and that half a iuilu's drivo Will mate all
iuto powder." '.,.
" There s no doubt but we can touch
dry land occasionally on our road v But
then if there are' atuns in the road, the
traveller is never waylaid, and his blood
taken by musquitoes big as oysters." -, ; f
44 1 U tell ya what, ftranier, they do
say there are whole counties down east,
where the stones are so thick that they
have to sharpen the sheep's noses so they
can gel them between the rocks to eat
grass. . Indeed, I once heard some one
say that had travelled through your coun
try, that he one day saw a whole field of
men and boys, suiudimr ou the rocks, each
on 'em letting a sheep down by the hind
legs in among the rocks to feed. . And in
another' place he saw the ' farmers shoot
ing the grain in amoi g the rocks so as to
lake root and grow. . - il
" Val, now, stranger, suppose you tell
us about your own country ; you are the
only man I ever see from the West that
didn't die of feverio' agur ; lets see if you
know as much about the' West as you
seem to know about the East," v ,
' Well, old Yankee. I'll iuat ie,ll von
all about jt. , If a fanner in ur country
plants the ground with com, and lakes
good care ou it, he'll get a hundred bush
els to the acre and if he don't plant al
all he'll get fifty. The beets grow so
large rjiat it takes tnree yoke of oxen to
pull up a full sized one, and then it leaves
a hole so large that 1 once knew a family
of five children who all tumbled into a
beet hole, and the earth caved in upon
them, and they all perished. . Whea wall
ed in. our beet holes make first-rate wells.
The trees are so large that I once knew
a man who had commenced cutting one
down, and 1 when he had cut away one
siue lor about ten days, be tnousht be d
just take a look rounk the tree, and when
he got round totber side, he found a man
there who bad been cutting at il for three
weeks Hind they'd never heard one an'
other's aiea. ,1 have h ard tell, yet I
samewhal doubt that story, that the Ohio
parsnip, have sometimes grown clean
through the earth, and been pulled through
by the puople an 'tother side." .
"Wal, now,, said the Yankee. " I
rsther guess as you've told enough for the
present, stranger. Ilow'd you 1 like to
trade for some clocks to sell out west !"
44 Never use 'emwe keen time alto
gether with punkin vines. , You know
they grow just five feel an hour and that's
an inch a utiuute. Don't use clocks at all.
It's no use, old Yankee, we can't trade uo
how."
The Yankee crave up beat, and sudden-
ly cleared out. . v .

The Wrath Washing ton. .
From Rush's " Washington in Domes
tic Life," we take the following:
' "An anecdote I derived from Colonel
Lear shortly before his death, in 1810,
may be here related showing the height
to which Washington's psssion would rise,
yet be controlled. It belongs to his do
mestic life, with which I dealing, having
occurred under his own roof, while it
marks publio feelings the most intense,
and points to the moral life. I give it in
Colonel Lear's words as near as I can,
having made a note of them at that time.
" Towards the close of a winter's day
in 1789, an officer in uniform was seen
lo dismount in front of the President's
house in Pbilodelphia, and giving the
bridle to his servant, knocked at the door
of the mansion. Learning from the por
ler that the President was at dinner, be
aaid he wss on public business, and had
dispatches for the President. A servant
was sent into the dining-room to give in
formation to Mr. Lear, who left th table
and went iuto the hall, where the officer
repeated what he had said. ' Mr. Lear
replied that, as the President's Secretary,
he would lake charge of the dispatches
snd deliver them at the proper time. The
officer made answer that he bad just come
from the Western Army, and his orders
were to deliver them with all promptitude
to the President but that be would wait
his directions. Mr. Lear returned and
imparted to the President what had paa
sed. General Washington 'arose from
the table and ' went to the officer. He
was back in a short time made a Word of
spology for, ,his abseuce, but no allusion
to the cause of it. He bad company that
day. Every thing' went on as usual
Dinner was over, the gentlemen passed to
the drtwing-roorn of Mrs. Washington,
which was open in the evening.- The
General spoke courteously to every lady
in the room, as was his custom. His
hours were early,' and by ten o'clock all
the company had gone. " Mrs. Washing
ton snd Mr. Lear remained. Soon Mrs.
Washington left the room.
" The General now walked .backwards
and forwards for some minutes tvidioot
spesking.' Then he sat down bn the sofa
by the. fire, telling' Mr. Lear to sit down,
lo this moment there hed been 00 change
iu his manner since his , interruption at
the table. Mr. Lear tow preserved his
emotion. ' This rising in him, he broke
out suddenly i ' " "' '
"(Its all over--Sinclair's defeated!
routed ; .the officers nearly all killed the
men by wholesale : the route complete
too' 'hocking lo think of and a surprise
in the bargafnr '
" He uttered al this with great vehe
mence. Tbeu be paused,- got upfront
the sofa, and walked about the room sev
eral times, agitated, but saying nothing.
Near the door he stopped short and stood
still a few seconds, when his wrath be
came terrible. .. ; '
44 4 Yes,' he burst forth, 'here, on thia
very spot, I took leave of him; I wished
him success and honor. You have your:
instructions, I said, from the Secretary of
War j I had a strict ere to them, and will
ado but one more, beware of aurprise J I
repeat it, beware of surprise you kaow
how the Indisns fight us. He went off
wttn tbat as my last solemn warning
thrown into his ears. And ' yet to suffer
that army to be cut to pieces, hacked by a
surprise the very thing I guarded him
against ! O God, .0 God, he's worse thsn
a murderer! how can he answer it to his
country f the blood of the slain it upon
him the curse of widows and orphans
the curse of Heaven f " -
" This torrent came out in a tone ap
pallinir. His verv frame shook. ' It was
awful, said Mr. Lear. More than once
he threw his hands up as he hurled im
precations on Su Clair. . Mr. Lear re
mained speechless; awed into silence.
44 The roused chief sat down on the so
fa once more. He seemed conscious of
his passion, and uncomfortable. : He was
talent. His wrath began to subside; he
at length said, iq an altered voice : 'This
must not go beyond this room.' Another
pause followed a longer one when he
said in' a lone quite low i 'General St.
Clair shall have justice. ' I looked hastily
through the dispatches, saw the whole die
aster, but not all the particulars; I will
hear him without prejudice ; he shall have
justice.-' ' ' 4 ;
! He was now, said Mr. Lear; perfect
ly calm. Half . aa hoar had; gone by.
The storm wss over, and no sign of it
afterwards seen in bis conduct, or beard
in his conversation. The result , is , well
known. The whole ' ease wss investiga
ted by Congress, and St. Clair was eui-
(ated and regained th the eonfideooe

him to that command. He had out him.
