TI‘l:- b‘1'tll)l:‘.GltOO.'u’S PltO‘iiAi‘iOi\‘.
A young Eirglislirmin, from gaining, love.
otfzni-s, and other such gold scattering enjoy
merits, had so tiearly reached the megs of his
greiit-graiidlatlier’s hereditary ptlllltlll, that
he could calculate the depriyiirig hour 0| his
fast guinea. As one evening llr‘ was return-
i-ng lioriie from one or (nose ltiiuiits of dissipa-
tion which he habitually fteqtiented, feeble in
hodv as in mind, and, for 'llt‘ first iiitie in his
Iife,casliiig a firiri look upon the ruin‘ of his
fortune, he could not well determine, whether
he should end his troubles by drawing a trig-
I r, or by throwing himselfinto the Thames.
While he was wavering between fire anti
water, the very profound idea occurred to him
not to lay violent hands upon biiirself, but to
alloy liimselfto be conducted out ofthc laby-
rinth of poverty by the fair hand of sonic.-.
wealthy bride. With this consoling thought
he went to bed, and alre-..idy in his noctiiriiai
visions the rapid racers flew, the fair girls
frisked around him, both of wliicb, lie was
happy in thinking he might ir_=aintain.in lu-
ture upon the dowry ofliis wife
The following iiiorniiig,he reflected anew
on his plan, 8:. found uiinexceptionable in ev-
ery point excepting the very slight circum-
stance ofnot kriowing when or where he was
to find the rich heiress ll|‘- wanted. In Lon
don, where all the world regarded him as :i
speiidtltrilt, it was not once to be thought of:
lie saw that for the future he tiiust throw his
net out elsewhere. -
After much cogitation and searching, he at
last hit upon an old rich colonel, living itpoii
his own estate, about tweiiiy miles from the
capitol, who fortrinately had no acquaintari-
ces in London, and was the father or an only
daughter.
Itito the house oftliis gentleman, by means
ofthe friend. to whom he promised hall the
booty, he got liimselfintrodiiced and received.
The daughter of the colonel who W119 an
awkward couirtry girl, with routid chubby
cheeks like Ruben’s cheruhtms, and looked
particularly odd it the hand-tire down attire
ofher sairited rtrotlrer, which did not at all fit
her, and was of course not of the iriost fasti-
ionable cut. Her iiirnd, too, was as attractive
as her attire ; she could only talk oflieiis rid
geese; and when any other topic came above
hoard, her conversation was limited to a “yes,
yes,” or a “ no, no :” all beyond this seemed
to her to be sinful. .
I This wooden puppet was indeed a mighty
contrast to the sprightly, gay, and lively
nymphs with whotn the young Briton had un-
til this period, been toying ', but he carefully
c_oi’.fiired to the solitude of his own bosoiii the
(IlS':‘iL{l.‘.‘€'-lble feelings of this heaven-and-eartli
dlfiffilil difference. Hts flattering tongue cal
led the girl’s silliness. celestial intiocence, and
her red swollen cheeks, be likened to the
beauty ofthe lull blown damask rose. The
end of the song was, he turned to the father,
and sited waririly for his daugliier’s hand.
The colonel, during his sixty years’ care: i’
through the world, had collected this inucir
knowledge of niankiud, that however slyly the
young irian had masked himself, II!’ could.
nevertheless,discover the foriuiie hunter peep
ing through the disguise. At first tliere'lor.,
he thought of peremptorily reluslng liiiri per-
mission to woo his daughter; but on the other
band, he thought, “ the youth is fashionable,
and perhaps I may be doing lriiri injustice ;ne
' as yet bi-trays no anxiety about the portion,
aridwhy should the girl, who is triarriagi~'-iblc,
remain longer at home? His requt-st strait
be granted, but his apparent disinterestedrress
shall stand a decisive trial.”
The suiter was then informed that the fa-
ther had no objectiotis to the match provided
his daughter would give her consent ; and
site, poortliing, replied as in duty bound-
_ “ .":.y lather’s will is mine.” Indeed, could
any thing else be expected?
In the course oi a few weeks, the niarriage
.cerernony was perforiried at the country house
of the colonel, and be instantly made his son
in-law acquaitired with his wife’s portion, a-
inounting to thirty tliousand dollars. 1‘lie
dissenibler acted as if he wished to know up
thing about the matter, and sqleiirnly vowed
that -"he had not, as yet, thottght on such
things, but had regarded only the noble qual
ities of his charming wife, whose pure sell was
defarer to him than all the treasures of the
world.
Upon this they sat down to table, and the
father-in-law urged and begged that they
would make as much haste as possible, as it
was his irrteniioir that tile young married peo-
ple should set offioat very afternoon for Lon-
don, and that lie should accoiiipairy lllem.
The son in-law was C0"'0u|lCl6ll, and be-
gall to make some excl‘ I‘-oout travelling on
the first day of his liappincss; btit the soldier
riiaiirtiiiired that these were iiitile, assuring
litiri that he had particular reasons for pro-
ceeding fortliwitli to the capital, and that his
tnatrirnoiiial joys would be as well l‘€'villZerl in
London as in the country. What was to be
1
J , . »
done? why, tliejeuruey waslrumedlately un-
tletlakfitt. ‘The old man secured in a small
ciiskr.-t, before the eyes of the bridegroom, the
portion of the bride, partly in gold, and partly
i . bank notes, took it under his arm, and pla
ced himself by the side ofthe young couple
in the carriage. '
The road ran through a forest, and scarcely
had they fairly entered it, when two horsemen
darted out from the brushwood, with masks
upon their faces, and stopped the carriage.-—
Oiie ofthe persons watched the postillion With
:1 presented pistol, while the other approached
the coach window and said, “ We are adven-
turers, and request you to give us up instantly
O . .
the portion ofthe bride l”
The Colonel and his son-in law swore and
rattled, but the robber coolly insisted upon his
deiriaiid. After some parleying, howeverillle
horseman bent towards the young man, and
whispered in his ear, “ That you may see we
are most reasonable tiieit, we leave ypu the
choice of two things ; give us either the bride
or her portion ; for certain reasons it is quite
immaterial to us, and moreover no one shall
ever know you decision.” \
“The bridegroom'did not think long about
the matter. for he whispered, “ take the
bride l” “ Brother,” cried the rubber to his
accomplice, “ we shall take the bride.”
Iii the twinkling of an e.ye,the soldier seiz-
ed his gentle son-in-law by the neck, shook
him violently, and exclaimed with a thunder-
ing voice, “Ha! villain! so my conjecture
was not unfounded, that you cared not for my
daughter, brit merely for her fortune! God be
praised that my child and money are not yet
iriecoverably in your clutches ! the man who
married you was not a clergyman, but a bro
=her soldier. in priest"s attire ; and these gen
iiemen are not highwaymcn, but friends who
have dotie me the service of proving you.-
Since, then, you have laid open your Wl10l8
vileness, we shall have no more connexion.-
I shall return home with my daughter and my
money, and you may go to Londoii-or to
the devil 3"
With these words he transplanted the as-
tonished bridegroom with a kick from the
carriage to the road, and ordered the postillion
to turn about. The outlaw trudged back to
London, and had, while upon the road, the
fairest and best opportuliity of deteruiiniirg
whether he should now use 0 pistol, or throw
hiiiiselfinto the river.
Capt. .Mai'tland‘s .-’v‘arrati've.-——Capt. Mait-
ship which first received Boiiirparie after his
flight front France, has published a curious
narrative of all that passed on board his ship
on that occasion.
"Napoleon Bonaparte, when he came on
board the Bi-lli-rophon, on the l-5th of Jilly.
22815, wanted exactly one month of COIll|ill1l.-
trig his forty sixth yi-.:r,heing born on the 15th
of August, 1769. He was then a reni.:rkahl_t-
strong, well built titan, about 5 feet 7 inches
high, limbs particularly well formed, with a
fine aucle, and very small foot. of which he
sceined rather vain, as he always wore, while
on board the ship, silk stocki:.g~ and shoes.—
H is hands were also very small and had the
pluurpness of a woirian’s rattler tlian the to
business of a iiiari’s. His eyes light gray.
teeth good: and when he smiled the expres-
~‘.l()l) of his coiinti-.n-ance was highly plC“.l§Ill}:'_;
when under the infliieiice of tllstippullllment,
however. it assumed a oar-', gloomy cast.—
His hair was of a very dark brown, nearly ap-
proacliiirg to black, and though a little thin
on the top ariil lroiit, had not a gray hair a-
mougsr it. His complexion wasa very un-
t-onrinori one. being ofa lightsallow color dif-
ferent frotn almost any other I ever mer.with.
From his having become corpulent, he hail
lost much of his personal activity, and it we
are to give credit to those who attetlded him,
a very considerable portion of his mental eti-
ergy’ was also gone. it is certain his habits
were very lethargic while he was on board
the Belleroplion, for though he went to bed
between eight and nine o’clock in the evening
and did not rise till about the same hour in
the morning, be frequently fell asleep on the
sofa in the course uftlie day. His general ap
pearairce was that ofa man rather older than
he ilien was. His mariners were extreiiiely
pleasing and afiiifirle; he joined in every con-
versation, related numerous anecdotes, and
endeavored to every way to promote good
humor; he even arlniitted his attendants, to
great familiarity, and Isaw one or two in
stances oftheir contradicting him in the most
direct tern-s, though they generally H8316-’l
him with much respect. He possessed too .4
wonderful degree, a facility in making a fav-
«riahle iiopressioii upon those with whom no
or-tei-ed into coriversatioii; this appeared it.
me .0 be accomplished by turniiig the subject
to matters he supposed the person he was ail-
ilressinu was well acqiiairiteil with. and on
Wt‘-lCl'l he could show himselfto advantage.-
Tliis had the effect at putting trim in good hu-
’ll0U|' with himself ; after which it was not a
very difiicult matter to transfer a part of that
feeling to the person who had occasioned it.
Lord Keith appears to have formed a very
high opinion of the fascination of his conver-
sation, and expressed it very emphatically to
me, after ‘rte had seen liirii. Speaking of his
wish for an interview with the Prince Regent
“ D——n the fellow,” he said, “ if he had oh.
tanned an interview with his Royal I-Iigliness,
in halfaii hour they would have been the best
friends in England.” He aiipcared to have
great couimand of temper, for though no in..o
could have hail greater trials than fell to his
lot_dur'ing the time he remained on board in..-
ar as I know, allowed a fretful or captions
expression to escape him. Even the day he.
received rue notification from Sir Henry Bair-
liitry, that it was deterinined to send hint to
St. Helena, be chaired and conveised with
the same cheerluliiess as usual. It has been
asserted that he was acting a part all the time
he was on board the strip; but still, even al
lowing that to be the case, nothing brit gr--at
mrriiirurid of teriiper could have enabled him
to have sustained such a part for so litany days,
in his situation.

CAUSE or THE GREEKS.—We find in a
late Paris paper a letter from Mr. Eynard, an
active riieniber of the. Greek Committee at
Paris, dated at Florence, Julie 1, in which he
gives all account ofthe measures adopted uti-
«li-.r his agency for relieving the distrr-sses of
-‘he Greeks,sincc the fall of Missoloriglii. The
irovisions which had been collected ttl Zanie,
Corfu and other points in the neigbbourlioiod
land, the coo-niaiider ofthe Bcllerophon, the-
Belleropiion. he never, in my pre-'eiii-e, or as -
for the relief of those who had escape 2* from
that disaster or were to be sent to Napolt. Be
sides, nine vessels, entirely laden with articles
of subsistence, had just sailed from difiereni
ports of the Adriatic, destined for the snccour
whole Grecian coast. None had yet fallen
into the hands of the Egyptians. Mn Eynard
had despatched, on account of the Paris and
Swiss Committees, 2,076,231 pounds of flour,
biscuit, corn and cheese, and 40,000 pounds
oflead. He was preparing to Send 1300.000
pounds more of articles of subsistence, and
80.000 poundsof lead. _
He gives an extract from a letter written at
Corfu, which states that they had not been
able to get very satisfactory details of the af-
fair of Nlissolonghi, but they had little doubt
that the greater partofthe garrison had reach-
ed the mountains, after having caused severe
losses to the Egyptians. A great part of the
women and children who had not been put to
deatli,were carried to Atta and Preves:i,where
they were sold like animals. A letter from
the Archbishop oi Aria says, “ These women
and children are sold at a low price like small
cattle; once transported to Egypt, they can-
not be re-purchased. The Islanders will do
all in their power, but I call for your co-ope
ration. In the name ofhumanity and religion,
take pity on these unfortunate b_eings—spare
lheni from degradation and apostacy.” -Mr.
Eynard, on the receipt of this letter immedi-
ately sent 50,000 francs for the redemption
of as many ofthese Christians slaves as possl
ble; 30,000 on account of the Greek Com-
mittee of Paris, 15,000 on account. of the
Swiss Committees, and 5000 on his own pri-
vate account. From the Mmea liehad learn-
ed thattbe National Assembly had separated
on the 15th April, Zaiini had been appointed
President of the Executive body, and lhii
power of the government had been concen-
trated iii the hands of a small number ofener-
getic members.
JACOB BARKER.—'I‘hey relate several
anecdotes of Jacob Barker which occurred
during the late fiscal storm, which are marked
with strong traits of his peculiar dexterity and
management. We do not pretend to vouch
for their accuracy, but they are so homoge
neous and generally believed that we are not
infirlels enough to reject them.
In the affair of the Fulton Bank, lie com--
plelely ouliiiariaged the Directors—-got in a
new Board, and after a violent gale moored
the Bank in smooth water, where she now
lies, like a patient after a violent attack of
billions fever-—vr~ry much debilitated SI. mend-
ing slowly What he made by the operation
isiinknown-—~lie was in full spirits for sorite
ilays, and it is supposed that he now iiianages
that concern. When the Life and Fire was
hard pushed and great exertions were neces-
sary to siistain its credit, as a last resort it is
Sdld they called in DO('t0l' Barker to admiri-
istcr some ofhts Elixir Redivivus Whatev-
er suspicions Barker may. have had, he cer-
tainly had wo idea that the Life and Fire was
so near its dissolution. He however put a
good face upon it—-learnt how rirucli money
ti as necessary to keep the mill at work, and
~proniised that it should be raised. On look
ing over his papers, he discovers some 30 or
40,000 dollars in Life and Fire Bonds, paya-
ble in one or two years. He repairs with
these bonds to the company, with i’.l$SUl'allCP.~
that $150,000 can be raised ifthe bonds were
changed for new ones, at three months, to
procure the desired aid. When Jacob got
his bonds at three months, he runs into the
market and sells them at 8 or 4 per cm month
and having got out ofthe fire himself.he finds
it quite inconvenient to sustain the company.
and it breaks,leavitig them a prey to disap
poiiilment, and the broker who purchased the
bonds, willing to hang him for high treason
or treachery.
In a letter he wrote concerning the Trades-
men’s bank which he published in the Post,he
recommends Peter Stagg to be elected Pres-
ident. and '\lr. Douglas, of Troy, cashier.-
Nothing was further from his thoughts than
to have either oftlieni chosen, butihe believed
his recommendations would bring both into
disrepute, and they would fail.
Thus, ever fruitful in devices, he has been
scouritig Wall street in these times of embar-
rassoieiit, ascertaining what companies maj-
be “ shivering in the wind,” and making hi.-
account of all. The greatest mystery is.
where does he find resources ? He who con-
tinually whiites about his creditors——wh»i -l-
lows hundreds ofpoor to walk the strei-ts w-ih
an itrrpaid and invalid note of lllS in pocks-l,
can, at a pinch, find hiiiidreds ofthousands to
sustain certain institutions. He is certainly
sin’ generis. but no less to be apprehended on
but account.
Our readers remember the awful fight we
had with him, about the 8600 which be en-
deavored to extort upon a pretence to pay his
rent. Yesterday the slierilf actually sold for
that claim, the press and materials ofthe N‘
Y. National Advocate, which cost us nearly
$2000, and which, in equity, we had as much
light to pay, as one of his exchange notes.—-
Tney will finally drive hint out of W'all-st. on
principles of self-defence. The brokers are
afraid ofhiin—tlte fair dealer declines any
transactions with him, institutions generally
no alarmed at his approach. It is said that
he has the notes and effects of the‘ Hudson,
the Lombard, and Life and Fire companies
in his possession.——-.N'. Y. Enquirer.
