To be sure, "the fools are not all dead yet," for certain people still pay five dollars to have their horoscopes cast, and not a few rustics consult the moon or the almanac before planting beans or weaning calves. The Romance of the English Stage. By Percy Fitzgerald. Philadelphia: J.B. Lippincott & Co.

One of these named Philip White, notorious for his depredations, had been caught by the New Jersey people, and killed while attempting to escape, when being conducted to Monmouth jail. His partisans in New York vowed revenge. Captain Huddy, a warm whig, then in confinement in New York, was taken by a party of loyalists under Captain Lippincott, to the Jersey shore, near Sandy Hook, and hanged.

Hubbard, and Alonzo moved towards the sofa where she had been sitting. "Do you think that Stewart will be chosen President of the Franklin Insurance?" inquired Mr. Hubbard. "I think not, sir he rather mismanaged the affairs of the Hoboken Bank. Lippincott will be the President, I take it. He has magnificent talents for business.

"Her name was Miss Orrecta Lippincott; they generally called her Recta, in the Judge's family." "Recta is single yet, I saw her just before we left; but why did'nt you marry her?" "'Tween you and me, Doctor, I was a fool, I've allers felt a kinder hankering after her. I can't get over them fust feelings I had, to this ere day. Is she handsome yit, Doctor?" "Not very."

Before the lights were put out, Dr. White was asked to tie the Medium, and Mrs. Lippincott to sew the ends of the ribbon and tape with which he was tied. A ribbon was tied around each leg above the knee, and the ends sewed to his trowsers. A bit of black tape was then passed under the ribbon and tied around the wrist, the ends being knotted and sewed together by Mrs. Lippincott.

We immediately hired a whale-boat from one of the ships, lying here, at two dollars for each passenger, and between ten and eleven o'clock we landed in San Francisco.

"Here she is, Doctor, as fine as silk." Julia's languid eyes found the doctor's kindly face. "But the baby?" she faltered, with a rush of tears. "The baby is a very noisy young woman," said Doctor Lippincott cheerfully.

On the receipt of this intelligence, I immediately drew up a paper, which was signed by myself, Messrs Reed, Jacob, Lippincott, and Grayson, offering our services as volunteers, and our exertions to raise a force of emigrants and Indians which would be a sufficient reinforcement to Colonel Fremont. This paper was addressed to Mr. Kern, the commandant of Fort Sacramento, and required his sanction.

For a long time the matter remained in suspense, but Washington, firm in his purpose, was deaf to all entreaty. Lippincott was tried by a court-martial, and acquitted, it appearing that he was acting under the verbal orders of Governor Franklin, who was at the head of the board of associated loyalists. General Carleton, meanwhile, had succeeded Sir Henry Clinton in command at New York.

So I never pray for more than the blessed enough for those whom I love best. And very dearly do I love my American friends, you best of all, but all very dearly, as I have cause. Say this, please, to Dr. Parsons and Dr. Stoddard, and Mrs. Lippincott, and Mrs. Sparks, and the Philadelphia Poetess, and dear Mr. and Mrs. W , and your capital critics and orators.
