 lmposter.-One day last week, person called on the editor of this paper, who had his right arm amputated at the shoulder, and solicited charity, as an unfortunate disabled member of the profession.-Said his name was Clark-that his parents re- sided in Burlington in this state-that he served his apprenticeship with MT. Hill, of Concord, N. H--that he lost his arm in December last, in Lancaster, Penn. by a swelling-that through the assistance of the Typographical Society of Philadel- phia, he obtained passage to Portsmouth N. H. from whence he travelled on foot, 'subsisting on the charity of the community and was making his way to his parents. He received his mite of charity, and de- parted, with many professions of thank fitness. Visiting the town, in an opposite direction from that which he manifested so much anxiety to reach, as the residence of his parents, who should we meet, in merchants store, but this poor unfortunate, and pretended disciple of Faust. On ac- costing him and observing, that he must have lost his way, he coolly observed, that :" he supposed he knew where he was," and immediately took himself off. We have since learned, that his stories rela- tive to himself are various, suited to the occasion-that at other places in the vil- lage he pretended to have been lieuten- ant in the battle Of Plattsblrgh, where he lost his arm, &c. He is evidently an im- poster and though unfortunate in the loss of a limb, is unworthy the charity of the community. inasmuch, as we have good evidence to- believe, it is sought mainly to gratity thirst for spirituous liquors. We feel it duty to give this informa- ton that the charitable in this vicinity, and the profession in particular, may not again be imposed on by his appeals to their sympathy and charity.
