A
. A THRILLING INCIDENT. ;
Some time since, there lived in one of
ho West Iudia Islands, then in the posses
sion of the French, a wealthy plantor who
liad an only son-a young man of rare and
natural endowments, both of mind and body.
At the period in which our narratiou is
founded, he was in the prime of life pf
prepossessing exterior of courtly address
unrivalled in most manly and athletic exer
cises and had attained the rank of Captain
in Hie militia of the Island.. ,Thus. blest
with the gifts of nature, as well as of for
tune, it would seem little short of a misan
thropic calculation, to doubt that his life
would be a happy one. But alas! a state
of unalloyed felicity is unattainable even
by the most favored son of humanity in this,
his statogof probation; a:id hence, when tit
times all nature soems to thke an interest in
what concerns the voyager on his life's ocean.
hiB own unbridled passions, like a mutinous
crew in a prosperous gale, will prove his
saddest foes shipwreck , his hopes, his fame,
nnd his happiness; and so; alas 1 it was i in
the present instance. Under the blighting
influence of a most ungovernable temper
equally disposed to impart or receive offence,
he was unceasingly embroiling himself in
...,..M ont rAndnrinff his sociclv burden-
ometill, at. length, shunned by most of
his earlier acquainiaucoo, mMmwrcm n

cious to acknowledge the necessity of re
formation, to the deceitful pleasures or me
wine cup and the gaming table, in order to
drown those feel ngs consequent on mortifi
ed pride. A- '. : '-!" 1 ' '.' '
At that particular period, gambling pre
vailed to a most incredible extent through
out the W. Iudia Islands; and not ttnfre
quently a sum which; iii those more pressing
Dmitri hn considered a small fortune,
may be seen staked on the single throw oi

ning, as the young militia Captain was en
gaged with some equally dissipated charac
ters as himself, in this exciting speculation,
in the saloon of a celebrated Cafe, when a
Stranger, wearing the uniform of a naval cap
tain, entered, and. having 'ordered some be-
verage to his taste, amused himself during
its preparation in taking a throw of the dice,
When regardless of knowing whether he had
won or lost, he turned around to drink.' Ha
ving finished his draught, and resumed his
position at the table, he was surprised at see
ing a large pile of gold pushed across ro him
by Li (the militia captain,) " On. being in
formed that he had won it on his throw, he
refused to accept it, alleging that he did not
consider himself entitled to it, as, at the time
of throwing, he was not 'aware" of the sum
played for, supposing it to be some 'trivial
mount, adding that " had he lost, h6 should
not have paid it." ; 1 . ;:M ' '',

'dent to L., who, seizing this opportunity for

that' the stranger should accept it ;' at the
same time, vehemently declaring that" had
he (the stranger) lost, he should have paid it."
To arguments, contradictions quickly sue
seeded, and finally an appeal to arms. In
vain did the spectators of the scene endea
vor to allay the angry feelings aroused, or
effect a reconciliation; and .hence, the
"friends," who proceeded to select the
weapons with which the right of quarrel
should be decided, soon discovered that -the;
stranger'-fl skill Was so far inferior .to that of
his antagonist, whether with pistol or small
eword, that no doubt could exist, as : to the
issue of the encounter, wore they to engage
. ' on equal terms. . Under these circumstances
L.'s high sense of " Aoor" forbade him to
take advantage of bis superiority. , Atleiigth,
after some reflection and evident embarrass-
jm'ent at' the' prospect 'of disappointment L,
thus addressed tns opponent w.i. .i:.r.

and when the British invaded the Island, L.
joined their troops, and careless of life
fought with a sort of infuriate bravery. Tho
British, soon, and .particularly by his aid, be
came masters of the Island; and just as L.
was in the very act of hoisting the British
standard on the walls of the principal fort
which had just. been carried by .gtortn, a ball
pierced his brain, and he fell dead fioin the

THE FRENCH RESTRICTIVE SYSTEM.
' Although ' a part of the French restrictive
ystom has been directed against tho impor
ts ion of foroign( corn, yet.Frcnch agriculture
does not appear io have derived !any. benefit
whatever from such protection. it is interior
to that of most European countries, and has,
in fact, scarcely irnproved at all since , the
(ime. when Arthur; X.unS described it, im
mediately before the first Revolution.
yinlst the ayerage prpdu'coOl wheat per acre
n England ranges from 20 to' 40 bushels, or
about 28 bushels for the kingdom, the average
produce for the whole kingdom of f raoce is
undcr; 14 bushels per acre. , , i , '. ...
''France, of all countries in Europe," says
Mr. Macgregor, "should produce so cheaply
as to have ho pretence for restricting the im
portation of foreign corn. Notwithstanding
this undoubted fact, a Committee of the
Chamber of Deputies reported in 1832, that
" if we admitted the food aud raiment and
metals and colonial and other objects which
strangers would bring to ourports,'we might
probably gain some hundreds ot millions,
should wo bp the richer in consoquence?
for the riches of a stnte are in tho elements
of labour, and when labour fails to find em
ployment, misery is reproduced. And it is
not only a question of comfort, but one of
existence ; for if wheat were introduced with
out duty from the Baltic or Black Sea, our
maritime shores mould remain uncultivated,
and the effect of a ruinous competition would
affect more and more nearly the whole of our
agricultural population." I his is an extraor
dinary confession on the part of the repre
sentatives of a great people. . They declare
that France, with her soil so especially well
adapted for the raising of corn; with her
scientific and agricultural : skill; with an in
dustrious farming population; and with the
expense of freight and other charges, equal
at least to 20 per ccnUof lhevalue of corn,
is incapable of competing with the Baltic and
Black Sea corn-crower. , , .
" The French agriculturist has, however,
to contend against a real and most oppressive
disadvantage; that is, the high price of iron
required for making ploughs, barrows, and
other agricultural instruments. By estimates,
much uuder those made by the late Duo de
la Rochefoucault and others, of the annual
wear of the iron of ploughs and of harrows
in France, and calculating the difference be
tween the averaee prices, for ten years, of
iron in that kingdom, and the prices at which,
for the same period, iinslish iron would have
been sold and delivered in France, (if hot
restricted by hiflh duties,) we find that by a
very moderate calculation the agriculture of
that kingdom is taxed forty millions of francs
annually, to maintain tho proprietors of iron
mines and foundries, and the proprietors of
woods U3ed in making charcoal. . M. Annison,
an unprejudiced deputy, has estimated this
tax, in his Ex amen del Enquete sur les Fers,
at 49,522,000 francs, or nearly two millions
sterling." ($9,400,180.)
Here wb find that for forcing the iron
manufactures, which never have thriven in
France, nor ever will thrive by such means,
the national agriculture is subjected to an
annual charge equal to two millions of pounds
sterling: whilst that agriculture continues in
a most backward arid unsatisfactory state,
thoueh forced in its turn by taxes upon for
eign corn. This is the very result foretold
70 years since by.T.urgot, in whose words
will be found a remarkable opinion,, dated
24th December, 1773, Sur la Marque des
Fers, deprecating protective iron duties, by
the most unanswerable arguments. nam-

J Commencing Right. After all that has
been said by the whig Press about the ra
gamuffins and land pirates" ot l exas, we are
prepared to look to the action of her. conven
tion for a model Constitution. Among the
provisions already incorporated into that in
strument are these: '
" First, That no corporate body shall be
created, renewed or extended' with banking
or discounting power. v i , .
Second, That the, legislature shall be pro
hibited fiom contracting debts above $100,
000, except in case of war, or to repel invas
ion or insurection." J' '.
The men who could adopt such a Consti
tution are men who deserve the thanks of age;
and whose memories will be held in grateful
remembrance by millions yet unborn, They
have started at the right point they have
profited by the experience of the past, and
instead of sharpening their wits in the at
tempts to curtail banking powers, and guard
against bank explosions, they have' nipped

this connection, to offer a few remarks in re
gard to its nominee.. 'With Mr, Knapp we

Some years since we wrought side by: side

for much day-dreaming speculation into ac

Courier " the greatest good to the greatest

' Its import governs his actions.' We
have had in our ranks too many milk-sop po-liticians-too
many weathercock demagogues,

Upon making further inquiries, wo learn
that the expression "Highland Dragoons"
referred rather to the fact that the soldiers
had been recently imported from a station iu
the Highlands of Scotland, than to. (he fac
that they were Highlanders born, or were
Highlanders in stature.' ' But it is imma

from, or whether they were, mounted or on
foot. All we Americans want to know is,
that some kind of, troops, are there, The
