Ie stated that from his boyhood up he had been a kind of reckless, dare devil sort of universal geniur, but never to harm any one, having borne, as was shown on his trial, a good character up to this sad ocourrence, both for honesty and sobricty. He never was in Le es but once, and that was on tho election of old Tippicanoe (General Harrison) to the Vrosidency, and that was on bard cider. He considered himself a good whig. Douglass further stated that he was born in Seneca county.

I determined to go into the city; so, with my disguise, ond my countonance badly tanned from exposure, I passed for a Spaniard.

In a tew momenty I rose to go, and stepped up to the bar to settle for the wine; not think- ing, 1 handed him a five dollar gold piece, a half cagie, ‘The moment 1 handed it to him, 1 saw my mis- take; but it was too late to retrace, and the old Mexican wae a cunning fellow; as sson as he saw it he looked at me and said,"Wait here a moment untill get the change—I have none in the drawer.” He instantly stepped out, leaving me with a young lady who was tending bur; she was quite # handsome girl, of about se- venteen, though of rather dark complexion, yet ber fea- tures were regular, with a very graceful form; her hair was as black as the raven’s wing, and hungin glossy lux. uriance around her neck and shoulders; her eyes were largo, black. and very bright and expressive.

Leaving the door part! open, he stepped back for the segars, when the pat: came up and asked us if we lived in this house; we told thera | no—that we had bought some brandy and wero weiting for segars. Their leader instantly pushed open the door and reapenied ie name and desired him to attend at the guard house the next morning, at seven, with-the fino of tem miireas. As soon as we heard: this,“ Now,”’ Harry, “is our time to be off," and, suiting the action to the words, we took to our heels, followed by a courple of the patrel; but we were too smart for them, and ins few apes po out of their sight and were soon: at- home, well ed with the trick, for we hada couple of bottles of brandy out of the old Brazilian, besides epee hia to a cost of t mailreas for opening is doors aster eleven o'clock. Next, we fell in: com pany with a young Koglishinan, who had-lately-returned: from tho country; he bad a pair of beauti‘ul, large iron-grey horses, on which he wanted to borrow some money. We asked him hew much he wanted, He re- plied one hundred and fifty dollars. Mistrurting bic from his actions, and thinkiag there was some catch about it, I took Harry one side, and told him to offer one-bu dred, but that we must have the horses, saddles and dri- dies in our possession until the money was refuaded, a it must be, or we were at Liberty to sell the horses aftur thirty days. Harry made bim this propesition, and after some few momenta’ hesitation he accepted it. We peid him the money, and he delivered the horses and their accoutrements to us. “Come.” said I to Marry, “ae.

We had got about half way to the garden (which is about five miles from the city), when, as we were by 4 carringe, the gemtlempn in it nodded to us, beckoned ux to atop. We rode up to the side of the enr- rioge, in which were three ladies besides the gentleman. We found it to be Don Manuel Miranda—one ef the gentlemen who were introduced to us on the evening of our dereent frou the Sugar Loaf. He introduced us tothe Judies, whe proved to be his daughters, xndbanded us his card, with ap invitation to a party at his house that cyening. As soon as they were out of hearing, Burcy burst out lnughieg: “Now.” says he, “Ned, you can see what @ fine herse and a fine cont docs, The other even- ing when we were introduced to him, he was the coolest man of the party, but we then had on our conrse Culifor- nia rig; now that we are drewed in broxdcloths and mounted on fine horses, see how kindly he «peaks.
