 MR. EDiToR-Some few days since, as was travelling on the public highway, in a thick wood by the road side, heard some persons most bitterly lamenting concern- ing the approaching election for Delegate to Congress. l reincd up my horse and made dead hait-f enquired within my self, why should l stop? but recollectinr that the sentinel gave the poor cod-fsh multitude until the first Monday of August. to become nei, Of underst anding, i drew little nearer in hopes of hearing something that would enlighten my understanding. How great was my astonishment when perceived poor Little Billy, reclining at the root of an old hollow stump, and Tal- teyrand supporting the head of the much distressed Billy, on whose visace despair was strongly depicted--his horse stood close by him and seemed to sympathise with and nicker forth the feelings of his distressed master. The dumb beast enid the madness of Falleyrand, and reproved his master, saying alas! when and where will our sorrows end, for we have been egregionsly mistab en--aIl our calculations have proven erroneons--do, dear master, join with me in lamentations for our oyer. throw. Poor Little Billy wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and reclining his head upon the stump, thus answered his faithful beast-your repreof is well found ed, but badly timed; don't you see Silence close by! he will tell the ire smcn of Ar- kansas every thing we say--bHt let us nso our noble faculty of deception. Do you stand still and listen, while I counsel with faliey eyrand-watch all his expressions and gestures, for on his rascaiity alone, does t,,,I I z, horse bowed obedience, and Little Billy broke forth in lamentation. Oh that my head was a fountain, and that mine eyes were rivers, that l might weep for the ap- preaching downfall fmy party--our hopes are destroyed, pleasure has fled, and no- thing but sorrow is found among my party; we have outwitted ourselves, our schemes have proven abortiye, and justice and free principles must triumph-alas alas what shall l do! To become an honest man is out Of sny power, for that codfsh stain is so deeply set, that all the rains from above cannot wash it away.

 Oh that I ever did, in the days of Con- way, with unhallowed hands, block mp the channel of information from the free peo- pie of Arkansas! oh that God would give me the strength Of Samson, and the pa- tienee of Job, to bear up under the im- mense load of sins, that now rests on my devoted head, caused in great part by the qurks, quibbies, and codhsh maneuvreing of Talleyrand.

 l Oh! that ever I was noticed by the Ex- eeutive officers, so far as to control ap- l pointments, as this evil has reverted back upon my own shoulders.

 Oh! that our party could go 10 the polls of election, without having to pack oui l ( begin to see that he will greatly impede our march and tend to our discontinue 1 Oh, that ever ! had said angit of Cauouses as l now the effect to be far different from what thought it would be- Woe is me that l ever followed Desha and Crit fenden to Batesvile, pimp, 10 search after something that might possibly inJure those gentlemen-alas! alas! what shall do. oh whther shall flee to escape the accusations of my gnlty conscience. what shall do to remove the stains from my garb

 Talleyrand, to all appearance, deeply affected, replied as follows--My dear Lit. 1 tie Billy, l am sorry that the truth lIas to come at last-we must let go the priHoipai and try to save the intereSt--we have yet one expedient left, for we can diFuse bad blood enough through the Executive veins. l to putr1iy the whole system, and stlll proht in small way, by kind of contraband traffic.

 1 The dumb beast then answered and said. dear masters, we are the sole canse of all our misfortunes dry up your tears, take the advice Of honest men, and look for bet ter times. Return to Little Rock and con sole our Responding party--I was going to say our good Delegate--dry up his tears tell him that the burthen and power of his acts will be removed from his immaculate shoulders, and when he shall be weighed 1T the balance of the sanctuary, he will bt found wanting.

 Little Billy answered the sagacious beas and said, my faithful beast, will take you salutary advice-once more will noun E. your loyal back, and return with deep hu militY, seeking mercy and forgiveness, ant endeavor hereafter to regulate my condnc by the true standard of codfsh honesty Hereupon Little Billy mounted his saga cions beast, which iustinctively took th road to the Arkansas riyer-plunged int the stream, and alas thus ended tine ca reer of Little Billy.

 SILENCE, at home

 cultipating his garden.
