DR. HOUSTON, successor of the late Dr. John Thaybold, Fellow of the Royal Col lege of Physicians of Persia, tenders his profes sional services to the citizens of Alexandria, D. C., and the public in general, and is ready to be consulted GRATIS in all cases of disease inci dent to the human frame, but more especially in that virulent and almost yet unconquerable dis ease the CANCER, as unquestionable authority can prove the cure of the most awful case which ever afflicted one of the human family. To those afflicted with this direful scoutge, with hundreds of others, he particularly refers to the cure of JAMES BOND, [see engraving below] a slave formerly the properly of Miss Sally Griffith, of this city, whose desperate situation, though for a series of years laboring under this affliction, yielded to his skill, though it had baf fled the science of most of the Faculty. Hope less of relief, in a reduced situation—abandoned by his friends, and seeking alms of the public, whose eye must revolt at a sight which would shock the finer feelings of mankind—at this time, fortunately for this object of pity, Dr. H. felt confident that he was his Creator’s instru ment to effect his cure, and is now a living wit ness of the truth of this assertion, by proper me dicine, properly applied. To which, five cases of CANCER, and ma ny other inveterate sores, of long standing, might be added—all of which have been effec tually cured by Dr. Houston, in this city, within the last four months. Satisfactory reference to the persons will be given, on application. A. HOUSTON, M.D. Dr. H. is ready to receive all orders, post paid, at his Office, at the Boarding House of Captain Nevitt, opposite the Market House, (late Mrs. Mills’ residence,) Cameron street, Al exandria. nov 5 Certificate of Mr. Robert Glenn, Mill Stone Ma nufacturer, Alexandria, D. C. For the benefit of the afflicted. This is to cer tify that 1 was greatly troubled with a most dreadful sore leg, upwards of thirty years; that every thing the faculty could devise was done to effect a cure in St. Thomas’ Hospital, in the Isle of Wight, England, and in the East India Com pany’s Hospital in Bengal, but without any vi sible improvement of my condition. I have al so been attended by other physicians, but all to no purpose. Finally, I applied to Dr. A. Hous ton, and, forsaking all others, I confided myself to his advice and attention only; and do ceitify that by his skill and judgment as a Surgeon, he has made a perfect cure of the disorder with which I was so long afflicted. In witness whereof, I have hereunto subscrib ed my name, this 3d day of November, 1834. 3 ROBERT GLENN. NEW GOODS. CARPETING, RUGS, Ac.

All advertisements appear in both papers, and are inserted at the usual rates. PADDY, THE PIPER. i';l tell vou, Sir, a mighty quare story, and it’s as thrue as Pro standin’ here, and that’s no lie:— It was in the time of the ’ruction,* whin the long summer days, like many a fine fellow’s precious life, was cat short by raison of the mar tial law.—that wouldn’t let a dacent boy be out in the evenin’, good or bad; for whin the day s w^rk was over, divil a one of uz daar go to meet a frind over a glass, or a girl at the dance; but must go home, and shut ourselves up, andnever budge, nor rise latch, nor dhraw boult, until the morning ke.n agin. Well, to come to my sto rv._’Twas afther nightfall, and we wor sittm round the tire, and the pratees was boilin’, and the noggins of butthermilk was standin’ ready for our suppers, whiu a knock kem to the door. i. vVhi->ht.” says my father, here’s the sojers __ .mm’iK now savs he: bad luck to thim, the viltianej I’m afeard they seen a glimmer of the ti e through the crack in the door,” says he. says my mother; “for I’m afther hang in*' an ould sack and my new petticoat agin it, a while ago,”—'4 Well, whisht, any how,” says my father, 44 for there’s a knock agin;” and we all held our tongues till another thump kem to the door. Oh, ft’s a folly to purtind any more,” says mv fit her; “they’re too cute to be put ofl that a wav,” says he. “Gv>, Shamus,” says he tome “and see who’s in it.” How can I see who’s’ in it in the dark? says I. Well,” says he, ‘Tight the candle, thin, and see who’s in it; but don’t open the door, for your life, barrin1 they brake it in,” says he; “exceptin to theso jers and spake thin) fair, if it’s thim.” So, with that’ 1 wint to the door, and there was another knock. Who’s there? says I. “Its me,” says he Who are you, says 1. A frind,” says he. Baithershi*, says 1— who are you at all? Ar rah! don’t you know me?” says he. Divil a taste, savs I. Sure, I’m Paddy, the piper,’ savs he. Oh, thundher and turf! says I, it you. Paddy, that’s in it? Sorra one else,” says he. And what brought you at this hour, says I By gar says he, I didn’t like go in’ the roun by the road,” says he, “and so I kem the short ciit, and that’s what delayed me,” says he. Oh, bloodv wars! says I—Paddy. 1 wouldn’t be in vour shoes for the king’s ransom, says I; for you know yoursell it’s a hangiu’ matter to be cotch ed out these times, says I. Sure I know that, savs he. “God help me; and that’s what 1 kem to you for,” says he; “and let me in for ould acquaintance sake?” says pool Paddy. Oh, by this and that, says I, I darn’t open the door for the wide world; and sure you know it; and throth if the Husshians or the Yeo’sf ketches you, says I, they’ll murther you as sure as your name’s Paddy.’ “Many thanks to you,” says he, lor your good intintions; but, plaze the pigs I hope it’s not the likes o’ that is in store for me, any how.” Faix, thin, says I, you had better lose no time in hidin’ yoursell, says I; for throth I tell you, it’s a short thiial and a Ion*' mpe the Husshians would be afther givin1 you"; for thev’ve no justice, and less marcy, the villains. 44 Faith, thin, more’s the raison you should let me in, Shamus,” says poor Paddy.— It’s a folly to talk, says I, I darn’t open the door “Oh. thin, millia murthei!” says Paddy, 44 whal ’ll become of me at all, at all,” says he. Go afl into the shed, says I, behind the house, where the cow is, and there there’s an illigant lock o: straw, that you may go and sleep fn, says I, and a fine bed it id be lor a lord, let alone a piper. S*> aff Paddy set to hide in the shed; and throth it wint to our hearts to refuse him, and turn him away from the door, more, by token, v.-'ien the oratees was ready—for sure the bit and the sup is always welkim to the poor thravel l *r. Well, we all wint to bed, and Paddy hid niselfin the cow-house;—and now I must tell it with Paddv: You see, afther sleeping for some time, Paddy wakened up, thinkin’ it was mornin but it was’ut mornin’ at all, but only the light o’ the to,ton that deceaved him: butv at all evints, he w anted to be stirrin’ airly, bekase he was goin’ off to the town hard by, it bein’ fair-day, to pick up a few ha’ pence with his pipes—for the divil a beither piper was in all the counthry round, nor Paddy; and every one gave it up to Paddy, that he was illigant an the pipes, and played n bang’d the Weaver,” beyant tellin’, and the Hate in the Corn,” that you’d think the very dogs w us in it, and the horsemen ridin’ like mad. _ Well, as I was say in. he set otf to go the fair, and he wint meandherin’ along through the fields; but he did’nt go far, antil, climbin’ up through a hedge, when he w as cornin’ out at t’other side, his head kem plump agin somethin’ that made the fire flash out iv his eyes. So w ith that he looks up, and w hat do you think it was, Lord Ik* marcitul to uz! but a corpse hangin out of u branch of a three! Oh, the top o’ the mornin’ to you, sir, says Paddy; and is that the way with you, my poor fehow Throthyou tuk a start of me,” says poor Paddy; and ’twas thrue for him, for it would make the heart of a stouter man nor Paddy jump to see the like, and to think of a Chrishthan crathur being hanged up, all as one as a dog. Now, ’twas the rebels that hanged this chap, bekase, you see, the corpse had good clothes an him, and that’s the raison that one might know it was the rebels,—by raison that the Husshians and the Orangemen never hanged any body wid good clothes on him, but only the poor and definceless crathurs, like uz. So, as I said be fore, Paddy knew’ well it was the boya that done it; and,” says Paddy, eyein’ the corpse, by my sowl, thin, but you have a beautiful pair o’ boots an you,” says he, and it’s what I’m thinkin’ you won’t have any great use for thim no more; and sure it’s a shame to see the likes o’ me,” says he, the best piper in the sivin counties, to be trampin’ wid a pair of ould brogues not worth three traneena, and a corpse wid such an illigant pair o’ boots, that wants some one to wear thim So, with that, Paddy lavs hould of him by the boots, and began a pul lin’at thim; but they wor mighty stiff; and, whe ther it was by rayson of their bein’ so tight, or the branch of the three a jiggin’ up and down, all as one as a weighedee bucketee, and not let tin’ Paddy cotch any right hoult o’ thim, he could get no advantage o’ thim at all,—and at last he gev it up, and was goin* away, whin, *!»arrectiofl. fYeomen lookin’ behind him agin, the sight of the illigant fine boots was too much for him, and he turned back, detarmined to have the boots, any how, by fair means or foul;—and I’m loath to tell you now how he got thim. for indeed.it was a dirty turn; and throth it was the only dirty turn 1 .ever knew Paddy to be guilty av; and you see it was this a-way: ’ponjny sowl, he pulled out a big knife, etnd, by the same token, it was a knife with a fine buck handle, and a murtherin’ big blade’ that an uncle o’mine, that was a garden er at the Lord’s, made Paddy a prisifit av; and, more, by token, it was not the first mischief that knife done, for it cut love between them, that was the best of friends before; and sure ’twas the wondher of every one, that two knowl edgeable men, that ought to know betther, wo°uld do the likes, and give and take sharp steel in friendship—but l’m forgettin1 well, he outs with his knife, and what does he do, but he cut off the legs av the corpse; ‘-and,” says he, u I I can take aff the boots at my convaynience;’ and throth it was as 1 said before a dirty turn. Well, sir, he tuck’d the legs undher his arm, and at that minit the moon peeped out from be i hind a cloud—Oh! is it there you are?” says j he to the moon, for he was an impidint chap and thin, seein’ that he made a mistake, and that the moon-light deceaved hint, ami that ii wasn’t the airly dawn, as he conceaved; and bein’ friken’d for fear himself might be cotchec and trated like the poor corpse he was after e multhreating, if he was found walking the coun thry at that time, by gar, he turned about, and w'alked back again to the cow-house, and hid .L-_in thu cthraiv Pafldv wint tf Ill UIU VWI sleep again. But wh.it do you think?-“the de vil a long Paddy was there antil the sojers keni in airnest, and, by the oowers. they carried of Paddy and ’faith it was only servin’ him righ for what he done to the poor corpse. Well whin the mornin’ kern, my father sayi to me, Go Shamus,” says he, to the shed, am bid poor Paddy come in, and take share o the pratees, for I go bail he’s ready for hn breakquest by this, any how.” Well out 1 went to the cow-house, and callec out Paddy, and, after callin’ three or four times and gettin’ no answer, 1 wint in, and called agin and divil an answer I got still. Blood-an-agers says I, Paddy, where are you at all, at all? and so castin’ my eyes about the shed,I seen two feel stic kin’out, from undher the hapeo sthraw. Musha. thin, says I, bad luck to you, I addy but you’re fond of a warm corner; and maybe vou haven’t made yourself as snug as a nay in a blanket! But Pll disturb your dhrames 1 n thinkin’, says I, and with that, I laid hould o his heels, (as I thought, God help me,) and givin a good pull to waken him, as I intended, awat l wint, head over heels, and my brains was a most knocked out agin the wall. Well, whin 1 recovered myself, there T was, ar the broad o’ my back, and two things stickin o’ mv hands, like a pair o’ Hussian’s horse-pis tols—and I thought the sight ’id have my eyes whin 1 seen they wor tw’o mortal legs. My jew’I, I threw them down like a hot pra tee, and, jumpin’ up, I roared out milla murther Oh, you murtherin’villian! says I, shakin, mj fist at the cow—Oh, you unnath’ral baste! says I, you've ate poor Paddy, you theivin’ cannible you’re worse than a neyger, says 1; and bad luck to you, how dainty you are, that nothin’ i’c sarve you for your supper but the best piper ir Ireland! Weirasthru! vrirasthrul what’ll the whole counthry say to such an unnathural mur ther? and you lookin’ as innocent there as t lamb, and atin’your hay as quiet as if nothin happened—with that, I run out, for troth (did n like to be near her; and, goin’ into the house, I told them all about it. Arrah! be aisy,” says me father. Bad luck to the lie I tell you, savs I. “Is it ate Paddy,’ says they. Divil a doubt of it, says I. “Arc you sure, Shamus,” says my mother. I wish 1 was as sure of a new pair o’ brogues, says I.— But luck to the bit she has left fmi his two legs “And do tell me she ate the pipes too?” says mv father. By gar, I b’lieve so, says I. Oh, the divil fly away wid her,” says he, what a crue taste she has for music.” “Arrah!” says my mother** don’t be cursing, the cow, that gives the milk to the childher.” “Yis, I will,” says my father; why should’nt I curse sitch an un nath’ra! baste?” “You oughtn’t to curse any livin’ thin’ that’s undher your root," says my mo ther. By my soul, thin,” says my father, “she shan’t be undher my roof any more; for I’ll send her to the fair this minit,” says he, “and sell her for whatever she’ll bring. Go air,” says he, Shamus, the minit you’ve ate your break quest, and dhrive h**r to the fair.” Throth I don’t lik todhrive her, says I. Arrah, don’l be inakin’ a gommah of vourself,” says he.— Faith 1 don’t, says I. Well, like or no like,’ says he, “you must dhrive her.” Sure, fa ther, said 1, you could take more care iv her yourself. That’s mighty good,” says he, “to keep a dog and bark myself.”—and faith I re c’llected the sayin’ from that hour—“let me I have no more words about it,” says he, but be aff wid you.” J So, aff l wint, and its no lie I’m tollin’, whin I say it was sore again mv will I had any thins to do with sitch a villianof a haste. But, how somever. I cut a brave long wattle, that I might dhrive the man-ather iv a thief, as she was, without bein’near her at all at all. Well, away we wint along the road, and a mighty throng it wuz wid the hoys and girls, and in short, all sorts, rich and poor, high and low, crowdin’ to the fair. I God save you,” says one to me—“ God save i you, kindly,” says I.—“ That’s a fine baste your 1 dhrivin,” says lie.—Throth she is.says I: though God knows it wint agin my heart to say a good i word for the likes of her.—“ It’s to the fair you’re goin’, I suppose,”says he, “with the baste.”—He was a enug-lookin’ farmer, ridin’ a puity little gray hack— Faith, thin, you’re right enough, says I; it is to the fair I’m goin’. What do you expec’ for her,” says he.—Faith thin, myself doesn’t know, says 1—and that was true enough, you see, bekase I was bewildered like about the baste intirely.—That’s a quare way to be goin’ to market.” says he, and not I to know what you expec’ for your baste.”— Och, says I, not likin’ to let him suspict there was any thing wrong wid her.—och, says I, in j a careless sort of a way, sure no one can tell what a baste ’ll bring, antil they come to the fah, says I, and see what price is goin’,—“ In deed that’s nath’ral enoug,” savs he. But I if you wor bid a fair price before you come to the fair, sure you might as well take it,” i says he. Oh, Iv’e no objection in life says I.— I Well, thin, what will you ax for her,” says he. I Why, thin* I wouldn’t like to be onraysonablc, says I, (for the truth was, you know, I wanted to get rid iv her;) and so I’ll take four pounds for her and no lest. No less!” says he.— Why sure that’s cheap enough, says I. Throth it is,” said he; and I’m thinkin’ it’s too chape it I is,” says he; for if there wasn,t somethin’ the matther, it’s not for that you’d be sellin, the fine milch cow, as she is to, all appearance.” In deed, thin, says I, upon my conscience, she is a fine milch cow.—“ Maybe,” says he, she’s gone off her milk, in regard that she doesn’t I feed well.”—Och, by this and that, says I, In re gard of feedin’, there’s not the likes of her In Ire land; so make your mind aisy. and if you like her for the money, you may have her. »v ny, indeed, I’m not in a hurry,”, says he, and I H wait tiil T see how they go in the fair. Witn all my heart, says 1, portendin’ to be no ways consarned; but, in truth, l began to be afeared that the people was scein’ somethin unnath ral about her, and that we’d never get nd of her, at all, at all. _ At last, we kem to the fair, and a great sight o’ people was in it—trorth you’d think the whole world was there, let alone the standin o gin orerbread and illigant ribbins, and makin o neautiful gownds, and pitch-and-toss, and mer ry-go-roun’s, and tints with the best av drink in thim, and the fiddles playin’ up t’ incourage the boys and girls; but I never minded them at al., 1 but detarmint to sell the thievin’ rogue ol a cow afore I’d mind any divarshin in life, so an I dhriv her into the thick av the fair, whin, all ot asuddint, as I kem to the door av a tint, up sthruck the pipes to the tune of Tattherin Jack I Welsh,” and, my jew’l, in a minit, the cow cock’d her ear, and was makin’ a dart at the tint. Och, murther, says I, to the boys standin by, hould her, says I, hould her she ate one piper already, the vagabone, and, bad iuck to her, she wants another now.— Is it a cow for to ate a piper,” says one o’ thim. Dml a o’ lie in it, for I seen his corpse myself, and no 1 thin’ left but the two legs, says I; and it s a fol )y to be sthrivin’ to hide it, for I see she li ne\er lave it aff-as Poor Paddy Grogan knows to his cost, the Lord be marciful to Inm.—“ Whos that takin’ my name in vain* says a vuitc m the crowd; and with that, shovin’ the throng a one side, who the divil should I see but Paddy Grogan, to all appearance? Oh, hould him, too. says i; keep him av me. for it s not himsell at all, but his ghonst. says I; for he was kilt last night, to my sartin knowledge, every inch av i him. all to to his legs. Well, sir, with that, Faddy-for it tra* Paddy himself, as it kern out afther- fell a laughin’, that you’d think his sides 5ud split; and, uhin he kem to himself, he ups and he tould uz how it was. as I tould you already; and the likes av the fun they made av me was beyant tailin', for wrongfully misdoubtin’ the poor cow-, and lay in’ the blame av atm’ a piper an her. So we all wint into the tint to hav it explained, and by gor it took a full gallon o’ sper’ts t’ explain it; and we dhrank health and long life to Paddy and the cow, and Paddy played that day beyant all fellin’, and many a one said the likes was never heard before or sence, even from Paddy himself; and av coorse the poor slandhered cow was dhruv home agin, and many a quiet day i she had wid uz afther that; and, whin she died, throth my father had such a regard for the poor j thing, that he had her skinned, and an illiganl pair iv breeches made out iv her hide, and it’s in the family to this day; and isn’t it mighty re markable it is, what I’m goiu’ to tell you now, 1 but it’s as thrue as I’m here, that, from that out, any one that has thim breeches an, the minit a pair o’ pipes sfhrikes up. they can’t rest, but goes jiggin’ and jiggin’ in their sate, and never stops as long as the pipes is playing—and there, f (said he, slappin’ the garment in question, that 1 covered his sinewy limbs, w ith a spank of his brawny hand, that might have startled nerves more%*nder than mine,) there, there is the very breeches that’s an me now, and a fine pair they are this minit.

A Tmcjimnc Comparison.—The Editor of the New-Jersey Advocate, remarking upon the thumping propensities of the girl now making so much noise near Newark, says there is some thine of the marvellous about it, he admits, but n the mean time, says he, We advise the na in the mean time, sa>& ne, yy c auviuc uic na lives' not to be frightened. After the astonishing “port given to Marcy’s Mortgage in N. York, iy have concluded not to be frightened at any thing ourselves.” The Wandering Jew.—The drama under this name, now acting in Paris, seems taken—at ,t'he hint—from Mr. Edgar Quiinet’s work bearing the same title. Death, however, instead of Satan, is Anasuerus’s familiar friend, per sonified as an old woman called Mob. The no 1 is a thousand times more blasphemous than t'ie play. It ends by representing the Almighty tir of superintending the affairs of a world which have gone all wrong—and he dies. The Saviour declares he sees no reason why he should survive his lather, dies too, and the uni verse returns to its original chaos. The romance itself is cast in a dramatic form; and the de nouncement is he Xeant the annihilation of tne world!—hit- Gaz._ Tricks cpon Travellers.—“i remember Cole ridge laughing immoderately at a stage coach man boasting that he had realized more than by the retail sale of one small barrel of ale. The boaster drove a stage coach on one of the western roads, and kept in his wife’s name, on the same road, a public house. He invariably stopped hereunder the pretence of‘washing his horses' mouths.’ The passengers would call for jfiassps or pints of ale.’ It was speedily brought and paid for; but no sooner did it touch the lips ofa passenger, than its acidity caused him to forbear drinking; no one ever drank more than hail Ins order. The coach again rolled forward with its four prancing steeds; the liquor which was left in the pints and glasses was carefully poured through the bung hole of the barrel to be resold :o other setts 't passengers of to-mor row.” Anions the premiums awarded at the Septem ber meeting of the Manchester Agricultural So ciety. we iiotice one to a “farming man ser vant.” for having conducted himself to the sa tisfaction of his employer, for the term of 52 years, and one to a “farmer’s dairy woman;’’ for making the greatest quantity of cheese in one year, in proportion to the number of cows, b**iug 101 cwt. from twenty cows. Tut Three Wives.—A sitter came to Copley, father of the present Lord Lyndhurst. and had himself.his wife, and some children, all included in a family piece. It w ants something.” said he, “and that is the portrait of my first wife— for this one is my second.” u But” said the ar tist, “she is dead, you know, sir; what can I do? She is only to be admitted as nn angel” “Oh no. not af*all,” answered the other; “she must come in as a woman—an angels for me.” The portrait was added, but some time elapsed before the person came back. When he returned he had a stranger lady on his arm. 1 must have another cast of your hand, Copley,” he said: “an accident befeI my second w ife; this lady is my third, and she is come to have her likeness in cluded in the family picture.” The painter com plied—the likeness was introduced, and the hus band looked with a glance of satisfaction on his three spouses; not so the lady—she remonstrated —never was such a thing heard of—out her pre decessors must go. The artist painted them out accordingly, and had to bring an action at law toobtain payment for the portraits which he had obliterated. Napoleon had a French cook who undertook to dress a fowl for his lmperilul Majesty,s din ner in a different manner every day for a whole year, he fulfilled his promise, and succeeded in gratifying the Emperor’s palate in three hun dred and sixty five different ways, every one of which w;is perfectly unexceptionable.

Z”) in Sa turday’s Gazette publishes a letter from General Jackson to Mr. Calhoun, dated in June 1830, and proceeds to compare its style with that of public documents issued by certain celebrated states men. Without disputing the genuineness of the let ter, or noticing the unfairness of a comparison instituted between the careless style of a private letter, written to an individual, and the exact form of state papers carefully prepared and published to the world, we were amused by the parallels run between the public services of An drew Jackson, and the exploits of ancient and modern heroes. Has he,—enquires X. Y. Z.”—like Alexan der, led his millions to battle?*—We answer, no. Has he wept for another world to conquer?—No. Has he, like Bonaparte, led a victorious army over the Alps?—No. Has he, like Washington, conducted a skilful retreat through the Jerseys? —No, he has never retreated. Has he written a Declaration of Independence?—No: Jefferson only could have produced such a document Has he written State papers, like Madison?— No: neither will “X. Y. Z.”, we may venture to predict, ever attain the pure style of that ve nerable Patriot. Wrhat, then, has Andrew Jackson done? He has won the hearts, and he still possesses the confidence, of the free and enlightened Repub licans of North America. Had he been an Alexander, a Caesar, or a Bonaparte, those Re publicans would have quickly hurled him from the exalted seat on which they have placed him. Brooding over the calamitous state of our un happy Republic, X. Y. Z.” proceeds to en quire, Where now is Greece? Where now is Rome? Where is France?—Why, she is. *‘X. Y. Z” informs us, li verging on an epoch when she may be blotted out of existence forever.”— And this response may, perhaps, be cited as an instance of what the Rhetoricians call the sub lime of nonsense.” But,—Where is America?* Aye, indeed, Gentle Shepherd, tell me where?” And—“Where are Alexander, and Caesar, and Napoleon?” Why, gone, it may be suppos ed, to the Tomb of the Capulets.” Adi: lphi. “X.
