DAvY CROCHET, c Tennessee member Of Congress.-The facetious Mir. K. of Ohio tells good story, in which this Congress- figures as the hero. The reader is to sup- pose Davy returned from the first session he had the honor of representing the peo- pie in Congress. He is to suppose further, that Davy has fallen in with number of his constituents at a raising, and is giving them an account of his visit to tlle Presi- dent.

 The first thing I did, said Davy, af- ter l got to Washington, was to go to the Presidents. l stepped into the Presidents house, thinks who's afeard? # didn't / wish may be s4ot. Says l, MT.

Not only that, but sent me printed ticket to dine with him. Eve got it in my pocket yet. D hav'nt Iwish / Imay De shot. (Here the printed ticket was exhibited for the admiration of the whole company.) T went to dinner,' said Davy, and walked round the Icng table, looking for something that l liked. Al last I took my seat >iist beside fat goose. And I helped myself to as much as I wanted. But l hadn't took three bites when looked away up the ta- ble at man they called I'ash (Attache.) He was talking French to woman on t'o'her side of the table. He lodged his head, and she dodged hers, and then got to drinking wine across the table. # they didn't / wish / may De shot. But when I looked back again, my plate was gone, goose and all. So jist cast my eyes down to t'other end of the table, and sure enough I seed a while man walking off with my plate. Says l, he'll To Mister, bring back my plate. He fetched it back in a hurry, as you may suppose, and when he set it down before me, how do you think il was? Licked as clean as my hand. Ifuwasn't / 'oish / may De shot. Says he, what will you have sir! And, says I, you may we'll say that, after stealing my goose. And he begun to laugh. # he didn't Iwish Imay De shot. Then says l, Mister, laugh if you please, but don't half like such tricks upon travellers; LfIds ' scish / mag De SHOc' P1HAO "Nu and greens, and whenever looked up or down the table, held my plate with my left hand. LfI { didn't / ,OisA Imay 6e shot. When we were all done eating, they cleaned every thing off of the table and took away the table cloth: and what do you think? There was another table cloth under it. # there ,oasn't / wisA may be shot. Then saw man coming along car- rying great glass thing, with glass ham, de below, something like candlestick.- It was stuck full of little glass cups with something in them that looked good to eat.
