There is a physician residing in Albany famous for his skill not only, but for his p. opensity to sell his friends. The doctor has been badly sold himself, and relates the story with as much unction as if he was not personally interested. One stormy night he was awakened from a first nap, alter a la- horious day's work, hy the ringing of his offize bell. He pat his bead out of the window, and made the usual enquiry, ‘** What's wanted ?’’ * Och, docthor dear! ducthor dear! be quick! Me ould woman, Biddy, is taring bad,” answered |@ vice below with an unmistakeable brogae. ‘* Who are jyou?’’ said the doctor. ‘* Sure ['m Dinney Sullivan, your ‘honor, and [ live in the Bowory: an” ye must be quick, }doethor!’’ The place ind { being at a distance from the | Doctor's residenve, and '. using stormy, the doctor demurred. |Dinny urged, and finally, ag an inducement, said: ** Doethor jdear, if you coum, Lil gie ye tin dollars, kill or cure.”

Dinney | being p-rfectiy responsible, was sued immediately for the ten | dollars in a Justice’s Court. ‘The doctor had assigned his ac- count, and was a witness himself. He stated the contract, and claimed the ten dollars. Dinney, who managed the case himself, repudiating the offers of assistance from the attendant lawyere, very quietly asked the witness if he cured ‘ the ould woman ?’ ile answered in the negative. Then, ia a lond, boisterous tone, he asked, ‘* Now, docthor, upon the vartue of your oath, did you fill her?’’ The doctor was thunder- struck. He stammered, and finally, upon the question being r- peated. answered again in the negative. ‘ Thin, your. honor,’ said Dinney, ‘* the docthor did'nt kape his conthract —

For the sake of peace they cheerfully coasent to wa ve their rigat to walk to che Prince’s procession. if Orange- mea will evince a like moderstion, and abandon their insolent preiensions. The Kingsto British Whig says: ** We hope upon good authority thit the intention of the latter now is merely to line the streets through which the procession is to | pass, without displaying any offeasive fligs, banuers, or par emblems, and abstaming froin all party cries ortunes. ‘T'o this | ¥O reasonable person Can object.

Cuampton vor Tar Prince or Waves.—Naughty Gossip | Refuted -—Uiarriet Martineau, in her last lett.r to the Avtis | Slavery Standard, says: * The Prince of Wales will soon be among you. I nevd hardly offer the word of warning which yet it may be as weil to utter—that all gossiping stories about his love affairs, or any other pranks, some of which bave appeared io American newspapers are altogether false. It is a pity that any Englishman stoops to write such unworthy housense to your journals. The Prince is only 18; he has always been carefully guarded and accompanied; and his ‘relaxations from his studies, and te really serious objects of } bis life, have beeu healt™ ui feild sports, and worthy rounly pieasures, QOiuee faniies aod individuals can defend their reputations.
