A PERUVIAN TALE OF THE SIXTEENTH CENTURY. Tt is now some three hundred years since Licenciado Esquivel, governor of Potocsi, now culled Potosi, commanded two huvdred men to march out of the garrison towards the kingdom of Teumen, with strict orders to use no Indians in carrying their baggage, and placed himself ata convenient station outside the gates, to observe how his orders were put in execution; he found they were wholly neglected, and that Indians were laden with the baggage of the Spaniards, but thought fit to let them pass by till the last rank of all came up, out of which he seized one man called Aguire, who had two Indians laden with his goods, Within a few days after he was taken in arrest. he was senteueed to receive two hundred stripes. Aguire represented by his friends, that he was the brother of a gentleman, who had in his countr a vassalage of Indians, and hoped his birt would exempt him from a punishment of so much indignity. Liceuciado persisted in the kind of punishment he had already pronounced; . upon which Aguire petitioned. that it might be altered to one that he should not survive; and though a gentleman, and from that quality not liable to suffer so ignominious a death, humbly besought his excelleney that he might be hanged. But Licenciado appeared all his life, before he came into power, a person of easy and tractable disposition, he was so changed by his office that these applications from the unfortunate Aguire did but the more gratify his insolence; and during the very time of their mediation for the prisoner, he insuited them also, by commanding with a haughty tone, that his orders should be executed at that very instant. This, as it is usual on such occasions. made the whole town flock together; but the principal inhabitants, abhorring the severity of Licenciado, and pitying a gentleman in the condition of Aguire, . went in a body, and besought the governor to . suspend, if not remit, the punishment. Their . importuuities prevailed ou him to defer the exe. cution for eight days; but when they came to the prison witb his warrant, they found Aguire . already brought forth, stripped, and mounted on an ass, which is the posture in which the . basest criminals are whipped in that city. His friends cried out, ‘take him off, take him off,” and proclaimed their order for suspending his punishment; but the youth, when he heard that it was only put off for eight days, rejected the favor, and said, “All my endeavors bave been to keep myself from mounting this beast, and from the shame of being seeu naked; but since things are come thus far, let the sentence proceed, which will be less than the fears and apprehensions I shall have in these eight days en suing; besides, I shall not need to give further trouble to my friends for intercession on my behalf, which is as likely to be ineffectual as what hath already passed.” After he had said this, the ass was whipped forward, and Aguire ran the gauntlet according . to his sentence. The calm mauner in which he . resigned himself, when he found that his dis. grace must be, and the scorn of dallying with it under a suspension of a few days, which mercy . was but another form of the governor's cruelty, . made it visible that he took comfort in some . secret resolution to avenge the affront, After this indignity, Aguire could not be persuaded (though the inhabitants often importun. ed bim from the spirit they saw in him) to go . upon any military undertaking, but he excused himself with a modest sadness in his counte. . soon as possible,’ Under this melancholy he remained in Peru, } until the time in which the office of Esquivel . expired; after which, like a desperate man, he . pursued and followed him, watching an oppor. tunity to kill bim and wipe out the shame of the late affront. Esquivel, being informed of this . desperate resolution by his friends, endeavored . to avoid his enemy, aud took a long journey of posing that Aguire would not pursue him at increase Aguire’s speed in following. The first . journey that Esquivel took was to the city of Los Reyes, being three bundred and twenty leagues distant; but in less than fifteen days Aguire was there with him; wherenpon Esquivel . took another flight, to the cily of Quito, being . . four hundred leagues distant from Los Reyes; . but in alittle more than twenty days Aguire . was again with bim; which being intimated to Esquivel, he took another leap as far as Cuzco, A Remarkable Pilgrim. The National Soielipenees afew days before the inaugnration of Mr. Buchanan, contained the following beautiful and impressive story of the quadrennial pilgrimage of a venerable gentleman to the Capitol, to wituess the inauguration of the President, The geatleman aliuded tocan be no other than George Washington Park Custis, the only man living who has known personally all the Presidents; A PiLcriM To THE APPROACHING INAUGURATION ON THE FourtTu or Marcd Next.—Ou the 4th of Mareh, and on Pennsylvania Avenue, apart from the crowd, will be seen an aged man plodding his way to the Capitol Hill, ‘a pilgran to! the inauguration. Since the inaugarations have occurred at the pilgrimages to them, by visiting a certain spot uear the Capitol, where was once a large stone, ou which that pilgrim would sit during the performance of the ceremouies iu the building, aud when the first gun aundunced that the ceremonies were complete, the pilgrim would rise. and pronounciug the name of the new President, and his date in the order of succession of the Chief Magistrate, the old man would remark “What vext?’’ aud then take up his line of march for his home in Virginia, This pilgrim has had the rare honor of personally knowing, taking by the hand, and breaking bread with all the Presidents of the United States. Broughtup in his youth at the then seat of the Natioual Government, he enjoyed the most distinguished opportunities of seeing and knowing much of the great men and great . things that illustrated and adorned the early age of the Republic, dignified to all time as the AGE or WASHINGTON, storing bis mind, at that . auspicions period of his life, with recollections, the most imposing of the olden time, and the glorious memories of the past, On the inauguration of Mr. Madison, in 1809. the pilgrim departed from his usual habit of being merely a “looker-on in Vienna,’ and took a somewhat remarkable part iu the eveuts of the day. When the President retired from the Capitol, oa rushed the crowd to the worsbip of the rising sun, The avenue was nearly deserted, while the hum of the multitude faded in the distance, then appeared on horseback, aud entirely alone, Thomas Jeflirson, The oN pilgrim poiated out this spectacle to two Revolutionary officers, Col. Thomas Parker, and Major Butler, (who were lookers-on,) saying, “Sce gentlemen, how soon a great man becomes ueglected, and his services forgotten in America, when he ceases to be the fUuntain of patronage and power! Whatever may be the patriot and statesman’s politics now, they were the right sort iv 1776, aod led to the independence of his country,— Houor to whoin honor is due.’ The Revolutionary vetrans now begged to be introduced, and the small party falliug into line, the retired Chief Magistrate was escorted on his route down the avenue. by a trio of his political opponents, The Pilgrim’s stone has been removed for some . years, to make way for the improvements of the grounds about the palace of the National Legislature, but the pilgrim will be somewhere . near the ancient spot, and while the sounds of artillery still linger about the echoes of the Capitol, the old man will say, “James Buchanan, fiyteenth President of the United States! What next?’ And then having iu ail probability performed his last pilgrimage to an inanguration, the old fellow will take up bis line of march for his home in Virginia, Mf.

Aguire travelling all the way on foot, without . . shoes or stockings, saying, that it became uot . the condition of a whipt rascal to travel on, horseback, or appear among meun.’’ In this mapoer did Aguire haunt and pursue Esquivel for three years and four months; who being now tired and wearied with so many long and} tedious journeys, resolved to fix his abode at! Cuzeo, where he believed Aguire would scarce adventure to attempt any thing against him, . for fear of the judge who governed that elty, . who was a severe man, impartial and inflexible . in all his proceedings; aud accordingly took a! lodging in the middle of the street of the great . church, where he lived. with great care and! caution, wearing a coat of mail under bis upper . coat, and went always armed with his sword . and dagger, which are weapons not agreable to . his profession. However, Aguire followed . hither also, and having in vain dogged him from . place to place. day after day, he resolved to make the attempt upon him in bis owa house, . ber, 1856. He was embalined a few hours subsequent to his decease aud had lain in this vaulted chamber upwards of six mouths. There was not the slightest sigu of decomposition visible to the eye, or perceptible to the smell or touch.— The corpse resembled that of oue who had just . breathed his last. The child had been large and plump, aud his sickuess, though mortal, had been too brief aud violent to effect emaciation, Consequeutly the face, arms aud body had not . shrivelled, or shrunk away, but presented a per. fectly natural appearance. The apartment, as well as the corpse, was free from any cadaverous odor whatever. We were lost in admmiration at the surprising results of this truly scientific discovery. A highly respectable gentleman from the North, who died on Friday, was embalmed the same evening by Mr. Caxanave, and his remains will be placed in the vault, until his friends are ready to remove them.— xchange.

A PERUVIAN TALE OF THE SIXTEENTH CENTURY. Tt is now some three hundred years since Licenciado Esquivel, governor of Potocsi, now culled Potosi, commanded two huvdred men to march out of the garrison towards the kingdom of Teumen, with strict orders to use no Indians in carrying their baggage, and placed himself ata convenient station outside the gates, to observe how his orders were put in execution; he found they were wholly neglected, and that Indians were laden with the baggage of the Spaniards, but thought fit to let them pass by till the last rank of all came up, out of which he seized one man called Aguire, who had two Indians laden with his goods, Within a few days after he was taken in arrest. he was senteueed to receive two hundred stripes. Aguire represented by his friends, that he was the brother of a gentleman, who had in his countr a vassalage of Indians, and hoped his birt would exempt him from a punishment of so much indignity. Liceuciado persisted in the kind of punishment he had already pronounced; . upon which Aguire petitioned. that it might be altered to one that he should not survive; and though a gentleman, and from that quality not liable to suffer so ignominious a death, humbly besought his excelleney that he might be hanged. But Licenciado appeared all his life, before he came into power, a person of easy and tractable disposition, he was so changed by his office that these applications from the unfortunate Aguire did but the more gratify his insolence; and during the very time of their mediation for the prisoner, he insuited them also, by commanding with a haughty tone, that his orders should be executed at that very instant. This, as it is usual on such occasions. made the whole town flock together; but the principal inhabitants, abhorring the severity of Licenciado, and pitying a gentleman in the condition of Aguire, . went in a body, and besought the governor to . suspend, if not remit, the punishment. Their . importuuities prevailed ou him to defer the exe. cution for eight days; but when they came to the prison witb his warrant, they found Aguire . already brought forth, stripped, and mounted on an ass, which is the posture in which the . basest criminals are whipped in that city. His friends cried out, ‘take him off, take him off,” and proclaimed their order for suspending his punishment; but the youth, when he heard that it was only put off for eight days, rejected the favor, and said, “All my endeavors bave been to keep myself from mounting this beast, and from the shame of being seeu naked; but since things are come thus far, let the sentence proceed, which will be less than the fears and apprehensions I shall have in these eight days en suing; besides, I shall not need to give further trouble to my friends for intercession on my behalf, which is as likely to be ineffectual as what hath already passed.” After he had said this, the ass was whipped forward, and Aguire ran the gauntlet according . to his sentence. The calm mauner in which he . resigned himself, when he found that his dis. grace must be, and the scorn of dallying with it under a suspension of a few days, which mercy . was but another form of the governor's cruelty, . made it visible that he took comfort in some . secret resolution to avenge the affront, After this indignity, Aguire could not be persuaded (though the inhabitants often importun. ed bim from the spirit they saw in him) to go . upon any military undertaking, but he excused himself with a modest sadness in his counte. . soon as possible,’ Under this melancholy he remained in Peru, } until the time in which the office of Esquivel . expired; after which, like a desperate man, he . pursued and followed him, watching an oppor. tunity to kill bim and wipe out the shame of the late affront. Esquivel, being informed of this . desperate resolution by his friends, endeavored . to avoid his enemy, aud took a long journey of posing that Aguire would not pursue him at increase Aguire’s speed in following. The first . journey that Esquivel took was to the city of Los Reyes, being three bundred and twenty leagues distant; but in less than fifteen days Aguire was there with him; wherenpon Esquivel . took another flight, to the cily of Quito, being . . four hundred leagues distant from Los Reyes; . but in alittle more than twenty days Aguire . was again with bim; which being intimated to Esquivel, he took another leap as far as Cuzco, A Remarkable Pilgrim. The National Soielipenees afew days before the inaugnration of Mr. Buchanan, contained the following beautiful and impressive story of the quadrennial pilgrimage of a venerable gentleman to the Capitol, to wituess the inauguration of the President, The geatleman aliuded tocan be no other than George Washington Park Custis, the only man living who has known personally all the Presidents; A PiLcriM To THE APPROACHING INAUGURATION ON THE FourtTu or Marcd Next.—Ou the 4th of Mareh, and on Pennsylvania Avenue, apart from the crowd, will be seen an aged man plodding his way to the Capitol Hill, ‘a pilgran to! the inauguration. Since the inaugarations have occurred at the pilgrimages to them, by visiting a certain spot uear the Capitol, where was once a large stone, ou which that pilgrim would sit during the performance of the ceremouies iu the building, aud when the first gun aundunced that the ceremonies were complete, the pilgrim would rise. and pronounciug the name of the new President, and his date in the order of succession of the Chief Magistrate, the old man would remark “What vext?’’ aud then take up his line of march for his home in Virginia, This pilgrim has had the rare honor of personally knowing, taking by the hand, and breaking bread with all the Presidents of the United States. Broughtup in his youth at the then seat of the Natioual Government, he enjoyed the most distinguished opportunities of seeing and knowing much of the great men and great . things that illustrated and adorned the early age of the Republic, dignified to all time as the AGE or WASHINGTON, storing bis mind, at that . auspicions period of his life, with recollections, the most imposing of the olden time, and the glorious memories of the past, On the inauguration of Mr. Madison, in 1809. the pilgrim departed from his usual habit of being merely a “looker-on in Vienna,’ and took a somewhat remarkable part iu the eveuts of the day. When the President retired from the Capitol, oa rushed the crowd to the worsbip of the rising sun, The avenue was nearly deserted, while the hum of the multitude faded in the distance, then appeared on horseback, aud entirely alone, Thomas Jeflirson, The oN pilgrim poiated out this spectacle to two Revolutionary officers, Col. Thomas Parker, and Major Butler, (who were lookers-on,) saying, “Sce gentlemen, how soon a great man becomes ueglected, and his services forgotten in America, when he ceases to be the fUuntain of patronage and power! Whatever may be the patriot and statesman’s politics now, they were the right sort iv 1776, aod led to the independence of his country,— Houor to whoin honor is due.’ The Revolutionary vetrans now begged to be introduced, and the small party falliug into line, the retired Chief Magistrate was escorted on his route down the avenue. by a trio of his political opponents, The Pilgrim’s stone has been removed for some . years, to make way for the improvements of the grounds about the palace of the National Legislature, but the pilgrim will be somewhere . near the ancient spot, and while the sounds of artillery still linger about the echoes of the Capitol, the old man will say, “James Buchanan, fiyteenth President of the United States! What next?’ And then having iu ail probability performed his last pilgrimage to an inanguration, the old fellow will take up bis line of march for his home in Virginia, Mf.

Aguire travelling all the way on foot, without . . shoes or stockings, saying, that it became uot . the condition of a whipt rascal to travel on, horseback, or appear among meun.’’ In this mapoer did Aguire haunt and pursue Esquivel for three years and four months; who being now tired and wearied with so many long and} tedious journeys, resolved to fix his abode at! Cuzeo, where he believed Aguire would scarce adventure to attempt any thing against him, . for fear of the judge who governed that elty, . who was a severe man, impartial and inflexible . in all his proceedings; aud accordingly took a! lodging in the middle of the street of the great . church, where he lived. with great care and! caution, wearing a coat of mail under bis upper . coat, and went always armed with his sword . and dagger, which are weapons not agreable to . his profession. However, Aguire followed . hither also, and having in vain dogged him from . place to place. day after day, he resolved to make the attempt upon him in bis owa house, . ber, 1856. He was embalined a few hours subsequent to his decease aud had lain in this vaulted chamber upwards of six mouths. There was not the slightest sigu of decomposition visible to the eye, or perceptible to the smell or touch.— The corpse resembled that of oue who had just . breathed his last. The child had been large and plump, aud his sickuess, though mortal, had been too brief aud violent to effect emaciation, Consequeutly the face, arms aud body had not . shrivelled, or shrunk away, but presented a per. fectly natural appearance. The apartment, as well as the corpse, was free from any cadaverous odor whatever. We were lost in admmiration at the surprising results of this truly scientific discovery. A highly respectable gentleman from the North, who died on Friday, was embalmed the same evening by Mr. Caxanave, and his remains will be placed in the vault, until his friends are ready to remove them.— xchange.
