WIGS and TOUPEES madoto or. der. myfltf J. a Original Sketches. A Terrible Customer A Fact.

Some Uttla time since, an officer of the law, armed with an execution against a gentleman of tlto em part ot the city, called at his residence, ant 'knocking at the door it was presently opened by a negro girl, and at the moment the offi cer caught sight of the worthy object of whom he was in search, as he suddenly disappeared within an apartment connected with the Das. sage. "Is Mr. within No, sail." replied the duskv Abio ail Surely you are mistaken is your mismlress in Yes, sah." "I should be pleased to see her." The lady was called and orasentlv annmarmA at the door. "I wish to see Mr.

if you will be geod enough to call him, madam," said the officer, very coolly, "he has just stept into that room." The lady exhibited a moment's confusion, but with becoming address turned to the apartment indicated, and in a half vexed and petulant tone, said, George, here's a man wants you why don't you come at once." "Ah, certainly my dear I'm coming I waited to a a couiing, ah, is that you 7 What can you want with tne, eh The officer stept towards him, and drawing out a most ominous pocket book, extracted the particular document and handed it to the gentln roan, who examined it, uttered something uui wuu out uuep, usnereo nis visitor into the parlor, and retirino himself, observed mat ne would return in a minute. The minute elapsed, and two or three more as usual, when Mr. re.annparod in tho apartment with a full sized cowhide in his hand, which, to the worthy officer's imagination, seemed to grow enormously in length, as the exasperated gentleman striding up and down the apartment, brandished it occasionally iu the air, accompanying the operation with terrific threats of lacerating deeds. VV however, was not easily scared, and recovering his composure he began to calculate the best mode of throwing his innn as soon as he attempted to strike, feeling duly satisfied that the particular honor of flagellation was intended for him. After about five minutes of awful vaporing, the gentleman slopped Bhort suddenly, directly in front of the officer, and with one cut of the broad sword exercise, dealt, severely upon "the emrenehant air," he exclaimed VV what does it cost for cowhidinn a man I "i think, sir," said VV drilv.

"it de pends upon the quality and quantity of the operation how much do you calculate on, sir." Why a regular threshme some twentv or thirty cuts, well laid on." Well, sir, I should think vou misht calcu late on 10 a cut; but in all probability the individual for whom you design the special honor, may save you a part of the expense by ebjecting to the operation, before you have completed the number." Ah, you are a bit of a wan have heard as much of vou before but I am in earnest." Well, sir, however that may be, the fidgety customer in your nana no Jose any now. "Never mind that, this fellow of whom these articles were got by some of my people, has warranted I neglected the trial as a mat ter of course and now he has had the impudence to order an execution without giving me notice." Did he never call upon you, sir!" Never saw him in my life he sent his boy two or three times, and I promised to call and pay it." But the debt is nearly two years old, sir, and he has been waiting for you to call all that time." And he ought to have waited it was his business to wait. I should have called of course some day, I dare say and he has had the insolence to order an execution very good very good very good he shall pay for coiling the cowhide under his coat made the officer accompany him, threw himself out of the Jionss, and strode away to the domicil of the unfortunate creditor. Arrived at the place lie entered the store and enquired of a young man present if Mr was within. Answered in the affirma.

tive, he directed him to be summoned. The young man touched the boll, and in a few moments a fine handsome powerful man, came from the rear of the premises into the etore. The hero of the cowhide eyed him from head to foot as he approached, and there was evidently decided change in his uentiments very rapidly made. As Mr. came up, the gentleman holding out the bill, said.

You are the person from whom those artieles were obtained I am, sir." And you ordered a warrant on the bill I did, sir." "And this is the true amount "It is, sir. "Well, Hr. please H. raeeipt the bill if you It was done, and the gentleman paid down the whole amount, received the thanks of his creditor promised him hi3 future custom, and with a polite bow, withdrew, followed by the officer whom he had twitched by the sleeve. I say, VV that is a remarkably muscular man eh Fine model for a Hercules," observed W.

drily. "That he is ha, by the bye, you need say nothing of this, you know here, you ought to be paid, though there's five dollars for your trouble good day." "Good day, sir." Bait. Sun. Is he rich Many a heavy sigh is heaved, many heart is broken, many a life is rendered miserable by the terrible infatuation which pa rents often evince in choosing a life companion lor their daughters. Mow is it possible lor happiness to result from the union of two principles so diametrically opposed to oach other in every point of view, as virtue is to vice 7 And yot, how often is wealth considered a better recommendation to a young man than virtue Hon often is the first question which is asked respecting a suitor of a daughter, "Is he rich?" Is he rich Yes, he abounds in wealth but does that afford any evidence that he will make a kind and affectionate husband Is he rich 1 Yes, his clothing is purple and fine linen, he ares sumptuously every day hut ran vou infer from this that he is virtuous? Is he rich Yes, he has thousands floating on every ocean but do not riches sometimes tak wings and fly away And will you con sent that your daughters shall marry a man who has r.o'hing to commend him but his wealth? Ah! beware! the gilded bait sometimes covers a barbed hook.

Repeal: A meeting of the United Irish Repeal Asse ciation of this city waa held on Monday eva ning at the City Hotel Aid. Harm in tH chair. The minutes of the last meeting worn read and approved of, when there were loud calls from all parts of the room for "O'Connorr" That gentleman not being present, GeorgE. Sickles, Esq.

of New York, who had heen invited to address them, was introduced to the meeting. We give a short sketch of his speech. It was grand and eloquent ia the highest degree, as the receipts of the evening will and we predict that if Mr. Sickles should attend our next meeting, he would very much benefit the cause. He said Gentlemen I am happy in appearing before you this evening to plead the cause of human freedom.

At this moment America is pregnaut with repeal. From th shores of Maine to the Rocky Mountains, and Florida there is one deep, universal feeling for the sufferings of the oppressed people of Ireland. And that is as it should be. We will not desert her in the very zenith heat of her revolution at tho very onset of her victorious She is not engaged in a revolution of blood bat of peace and for the benefit of herself and all mankind such an one as the Almighty gave to the people of Gallilee some 1900 years ago 'Tis a moral warfare in which Ireland is engag ed a war such as Irishmen alone can gain. Men who meet quietly and civilly.in just conn' ciis who break no law who create no distur bance but return to their homes soberly, ar not to be put down by all the armed force England can 'bring to bear against them.

They have taken a stand from which they cannot driven, and whilst gathered around, and fighting under the victorious banner' of their im mortal leader, they will prove to the world that they are yet worthy of the name and fame; which history has assigned to them. They will show the world that, as ther fiavd fought for liberty here, they can also do it ifl Ireland and although, their weafjons are rfoS as destructive as the talons of the American eagle were, they are and must be as effectives lrisnraen tougtit lor us, tougnt beneath the broad Winers of our eaele, and under our star and stripes. Yes! hundreds of them shed their blood in the Revolution, and as one of their descendants, stand here and sav, that we will aid them in their struggle for liberty. Look at nisiory, and see what they aid for as our da or pern And would not we be ungrateful in; deed if we did not endeavour to pay them little of that boon by which we gained so much? As Americans, we wish that all the world were free. We, as Whigs or Democrats, are always in favour of equal rights and privileges all.

But there is a party here that deny thoss rights and privileges to all who did not happen to be born on the soil. Yet they call themselves Americans! Are they Americans? No! they dishonour the name. Heretofore, American were known throughout the world as a people who extended their arms to the oppressed of every land as a people who allowed liberty of conscience to all who dwelt upon the soil as a people who prided themselves upon their unsullied lame for being hospitable and unprejudiced. But this party is striving, by all the means in their power, to keep the stranger fron our shores to create discord at home and hurt our fair name abroad. Before they proceed any farther I would say to them, look at history of our country? Did not foreigner; drive the British tyrant from our shores 1 Did not foreigners the very forefathers of those whom they would now disparage fight for our liberty? Did not they pour out their blood so that their children might enjoy freedom? And shall we rob the child of its inheritance? Shall ve deny it that which its father, in his1, dying moments, wiil'd it, and sealed with hia blood No we cannot we will not.

In the hour of American danger we needed soldiery we needed skilful commanders, and we needed money. France sent us three millions' of francs and added more by loans; and she sent us her darling Lafayette, too, (a voice, which proved its owner to be no Mathew ite, said "she didn't," "it's a Cries of "out witb him." No," said Mr. I can speak loud enough for him and all the rest to hear Mr. S. proceeded.

Let this native party behold his (Lafayette's) progress ihrough the country? See the maids, matrons, and housewives leaving their distaffs at his approach, and going forth to raise triumphal arches through which that Son of Freedom might pass 1 But I have not yet done with the native party. A few words more and I will clear my skirts of them. Let them look at Kosciusko one of Liberty's noblest sons, and the bosom friend of Washington, whose every limb bled, and whose every sinew was stiffened, in defence of American Liberty and nt Stuben, who told the noble Lafayette that he would "nght lor American' Liberty until the British Lion should lall down and crouch beneath the gaze of the American Eagle and at Montgomery, who fell at Quebec, and let these craven hearted, soulless men. deny the privilege of citizens to all who were' not born on the soil? Let us look at Ireland and O'Connell, and see what they are doing there I have in my hand letter dated at the Corn Exchange, 11th Nov. lo4o, (here he read from the letter taken from the Dublin Nation!) This, said he, ia the language of O'Connell.

The attorney general has got an indictment against htm three tnilsfl long, but he, (UC) would dash through it in a coach and six horses. Repeal must succeed when such men as Clay, Seward, Tyler, Johnston and Cass are in its favor. Here Mr S. sat down amidst the most enthusiastic cheers, such as had greeted him throughout his whole die course. Judge Church then moved that the proceedings of this, and ot every other meeting be published in all the papers in this city and New York which will publish them gratis Judge Church, being called on, spoke at some length in his usual eloquent manner.

Mr. Whelan then offered the following resolution Resolved, That we fully concur with the repealers of Albany in the propriety of holding simultaneous meetings throughought the world. Carried. Mr. W.

was then called on to address fhev meeting, but as the money was coming in, ho declined until a more proper time. Judge Church said that as they would have to appoint officers for the ensuing six monthd at the first meeting in January, it would be wall to appoint a nominating committee, whereupon the fnllnwinrr worn annointedon that committee! 1st ward, Neil McCally, 2d Morthy Riorden, 3d, Peter Shaw, m. eraoiey, oia, phen Martin, 6th, John Boyle, 7th, Ja. Friel, 8th, Wm. Hughes, 9tb, Bernard Boyle.

Tha Secretary said the receipts of the evening wei S80, st which he proposed three cheers for Q' Connqll and Repeal. The meeting than adjourned to meet on tho second Monday in Jtnu87'.
