OF MYSELF.
This only grant mo, that my Means may lye
Too low for Envy, for Contempt too Ugh,
Some Honor I-would have
Hot from great Deeds, but good alone.
Tbe unknown are better than ill know n,
Rumour can ope the Grave.
Acquaintance I would have, hut w hen't depends
Not on the Number, but the Choice of Friends. ,
Books should, not Business, entertain the Light; ,
And Sleep, as undisturb'd as Death, the Night.
My House a Cottage, more
Than Palace, and should flitting bo
For all my Use, no luxury.
My Garden painted o’er
With Nature’s Hand, not Art’s land Pleasures yield,
Horace might envy in his Sabine Field.
Thu* woald I double my life’s fading Space ;
For he that runs it well .twice his Race runs.
And in this true Delight,
These unbought Sports, this happy State,
I would not fear, nor wish my Fate,
But boldly say each Night,
To Morrow let my Sun his Beams display.
Or in Clouds hide them; I have liv'd to Day.
THE GOOD WIFE.
Written by George Chapman, in 1598.
Let no man value at a tilde price
A virtuous woman's countaile. her wing’d spirit
Is feather’d oftentimes with heavenly wards,
And (like her beauty) ravishing and pur* —
The weaker bodle, still Ihe stronger soule.
When good endeavors do her power applie,
Her love draws nearest roan's felicilie.
0 what a treasure is a virtuous wife!
Discreet and loving: not one gift on earth
Makes a man’s life so highly bound to Heaven:
She gives him double forces to endure
And to enjoy, by being one with him,
Feeling his joies and griefes with equal sense,
And (like the tw ins Hippocrates reports)
If he fetch sighs, she draws her breath as short; •
If he lament, she melts herself in teares;
If heba glad, she triumphs; if he aim.
She mooves bis way: in all things bis sweet ape,
And is in alterations passing strange—
Himself divinely varied without change.
Gold is right precious, but his price infects
With pride and avarice; authority lifts
Hat* from men’s heads and bows the strongest knees,
Yet cannot bend in rule the weakest hearts;
Music delights but one sense, nor choice meat*—
One quickly lodes tlje other stirres to sinne t
But a true wife both sense and soule delights,
Andenixeth not her good with any ill;
Her virtues ruling hearts all pow ers command.
All store kithout her leaves a man but poor*,
And w ith her povertie is exceeding store;
No lime is tedious w ith her—her true worth
Makes a true husband think hisarmes enfold
(With her alone) a compleale world of gold.

Oh shake off slumber’s drowsy spell,
In morning’s pleasant haunts to dwell;
And baste to join the leather'd throng,

With careless footsteps freely rare
O’er sunny plain, or leafy grove.

Oh haste—ok baste

O’er opening flowrets hovering.
And watch the squirrel's play.
To taste the gifts of earth and air,

But melt like summers mist away,
From day’s too piercing eye.

LOBD bacon’s DIRECTIONS FOB TUB
MAKING of gold.
L*t there be a small furnace made of
a temperate heat; let the heat be such
as may keep the metal perpetually mol
ten, and no more; for that above all,
Importeth to the work: for the material,
take silver, which is the metal, that in
nature, symbolizeth most with gold j
put in also, with the silver a tenth part
of quick silver, and a twelfth part of ni
tre by weight: both these to quicken
and open tbe body of the metal: and to
let the work be continued by the space
of «x months, at the least. I wish also,
that there be at some times an injection
of some oiled substance; such as
they in (he recovering of gold,
which by vexing with separation
hath been churlish : and this is, to lay
• the part more close and smooth, which
“ work. For gold (as we
see) '‘is the closest (aud therefore the
heaviest) of netals ; and is likewise the
most flexible and tensiblc. Note, that
to think to make gold of quick silver,
because it is the heaviest, is a thing not
to be hoped ; for quick silver will not
endure the manage of the fire ; next to
silver, I think copper wore fittest to be
the material.

A prophecy, concerning the future state 1
of several Nations, in a letter written h
upon occasion of an old prophecy
sent to the author from’a friend* with j,
a request that he would consider it. ,
Sir.—l take no pleasure in prophe
cies so hardly intelligible, and pointing
at future things from a pretended spirit
of Divination; of winch sort this seems
to be which came into your hand, and
you were pleased to send unto me. And ;
therefore, for your easier apprehension, ■
divertisement and consideration, I pre- ,
sent you with a very di lie rent kind of
prediction: not positively or perempto
rily telling you what shall come to pass;
yet pointing at things not without all
reason or probability of their events;
not built upon fatal decrees* or inevita- ,
ble designations, but upon conjectural ,
foundations, wherebythings wished may ;
be promoted,'and such as are feared, (
may more probably be prevented. ,
THE PROPHECY.
When FcnyEngland shall \rouble yew Spuir ,
WbenJamica shall be lady of tie isle and the Main— ,
When Spain shaU be in America hid,
And -Verio) shall prove a Madrid.
When Mahomet's ships on the Baltici shall ride,
jVoj Turks shall labour 10 have port; on that side. I
Wlien Africa shall no more sell out their Blacks,
To make slaves and drudges to the American tracts.
When Batavia the Old shall be contemn’d hythe New.
When a new drove of Tartars shall Chinn subdue.
When Ametva shall cease to send out its treasure,
But employ it at home in American pleasure.
When the new world shall the old Invade,
Nor count them their Lords tint their fellows in Trade-
When men shall almost pass to Venice by land,
Sot in deep water but from sand to sand.
When -Vtru Zrmbla shall be no stay
Unto those who pass to or from Cathay.
Then think strange things arc come to light,
, Whereof but few have had a fo^jsight.
Counsellor Lillicnstein, of Frankfort,
has published a work in which he at
tempts to prove that the predictions re
specting Anti-Christ, arc now on the
eve of being accomplished. Anti-
Christ, he asserts, will appear in 1823
—his arrival will be succeeded by 10
years of religious wars—after which,
the Millenium, as he assures us, is to
commence in 1836.
Singular Medical Case. —A case of
singular interest has, we understand,
lately fallen under the observation of
Dr. W. Pickells, of the Physicians
to the Dispensary of this City—that of
a female, aged about twenty-live years,
in which the larva; of a great number of
insects of the beetle and fly kind were
discharged alive from flic stomach.
Several of the larva; of the beetle kind,
though discharged upwards of a fort
night since, remain still alive, in health
and vigour. They consist, besides the
head, of twelve joints, are furnished
with six feet—some exceed an inch in
length.
The young woman laboured, at in
tervals, during a long time past, under
vomiting of blood, and the most violent
convulsions, which have been consider
ably alleviated by the discharge of the
insects.
The probable supposition is, that the
ova, or eggs, were taken in by the
mouth, and hatched in the stomach.
The case, we understand, will short
ly appear in a detailed form in a distin
guished Medical Publication.

Cure for the bite of the Itnttle Snake and
other venomous animats.
Since our last paper wc, have had
the pleasure of a conversation with Dr.
Joseph Moore of Gihsonport, Missippi, j
who informs us that during f 8 years re- !
sidence in that climate, there have come
under his paricular caje, thirteen cases
ol the bite of the llaltle snake and
Moccasin, (the latter of which is more j
venomous than the Rattle Snake) and 1
that he has found the following a certain
«ind immediate cure.-—The remedy was
introduced into Europe from Asia, by
Sir W illiam Jones, and has the confi
dence of the Medical faculty wherever
it has been applied.
Give to a grown person, a tea-spoon ;
ful of the Volatile Spirit of Sal Ammo
niac or what is commonly called spirits
of Hartshorn, in half a wipe glass of
water, every half hout until the symp
toms disappear, binding at the same
time a linen cloth of 3or 4 thicknesses
wet with the spirit manixt with water, !
to the wound. The cloth to be wetted l
every five minutes. \
If thewouiid has been., given some i
hours before the application can be ap- (
plied, it should be scarified, freely round I
the bite with a sliarp knite or lancet, be
fore the wet cloth is laid on. i
The most severe and obstinate cases i
have been known loyiel ito this reme- <
dy in a few hours.
\ ery great care ought to be taken
that the Spirits of Hartshorn should be 1
kept tightly corked, for if exposed to I
the air, it soon loses its efficacy. ]

Important from Scotland
On Friday last, a quantity of wheel
barrows and hand barrrows, imported j
from Scotland, were sold at auction in |
front of the Tontine Coffee House. |
Whether the price obtained was such
as to warrant further .importations of
this species of merchandise, we are not
informed. The person who made this
shipment to the United States must, we
presume, have received his impression .
of our country from some of the accu
rate descriptions which have appeared
in the Edinburg Review, and Journals
of British travellers. He must have
concluded either that the country was
barren of trees, or that the people did
not possess sufficient skill to manufac
ture such choice goods. He bad heard
his learned countrymen ask, “ Who
reads an American book ?” and proba
bly thought it would be as pertinent to ,
enquire “Who wheels an American
wheel-barrpw ?”

vision were in June, unusually cheap

It gives us real pleasure to record in
stances of juvenile intrepidity, whene
ver such noble qualities are exerted in
the cause of benevolence and humani
ty.—On the 21st inst, while two boys
were bathing at the Spring Gardens,,
one of them sunk in a place where the
water was twelve feet in depth, and af
ter some unsuccessful attempts to re
gain the shore sunk to the bottom. His
comrade immediately sounded the a
larni, and sundry persons collected,
none of whom, however, ventured on
the recovery of the boy. A young lad
about a quarter of a mile distant from
the scene of danger, hearing cries of a
larm, hastened to the place, and with
out speaking to any one, divested him
self of his clothes, and plunged into
the liquid element. He went to the
bottom, and shortly afterwards arose for
the recovery of his breath—a second
and a third time did this little hero sink
unsuccessfully, and rose to recover his
respiration. On his third attempt, he
thought that he felt the toe of the suffer
er, and a fourth time did he plunge for
the body. Divine Providence smiled
on such persevering benevolence at last
—he rises encumbered with the helpless
and motionless body, but now exhaust
ed by such repeated and unavailing ef
forts, he finds his strength rapidly de
clining. With a calmness and self pos
session worthy of all praise, ho turns
himself on his back, {and floats upon
the surface of the water, still grasping
his helpless companion, until assistance
was obtained, and both recovered from
their perilous situation. The boy is
still living, and what thanks are due
from his parents for such intrepid and
determined benevolence. Why should
not humanity be allowed to claim her
heroes, as well as the demon of carnage ?
We haw enquired into the age of this
noble child, and he numbers fifteen
years; bis name is James Arnold.
The child rescued by his benevolence
from a watery grave, is now doing well.
[Bait. Mom. Chron.
From the Portsmouth Oi ach,
GEORGE B. ENGLISH,
Is a native of Boston, and was educa
ted at Harvard College, with the class j
that was graduated in 1807, While 1
there, he was distinguished for his mo- ’
dest demeanor, and his insatiable thirst :
for knowledge. During the three first
years of his attendance at College, he ;
devoted from twelve to fifteen hours a I
day to study; allowing himself no ex
ercise or relaxation, but an occasional .
walk to his fathers country house in
Brighton. In the last year of his col
lege life, his declining health compelled
lum to relax in some degree, this intem
perate application. His studies at this
time partook of his peculiar character;
or rather his subsequent conduct may
be traced back to these early studies.
Besides these lessons required by the t
government of the College* which he
learned with scrupulous care, he rend
many hundred volumes of metaphy
sics, ecclesiastical antiquity, biblical
criticism, oriental literature, and milita
ry tactics. His religious opinions Were
unsettled; but he expressed much res
pect for Christianity, and an earnest
desire to be convinced of its truth.
The writer of this notice, who lived
with him, at that time, in habits of un
reserved intimacy, well remembers with
what earnestness, after discussing some
of the doctrines of Christianity, he ex
claimed—“ all that is very delightful—if
it wore but true JI do assure yon, if my
understanding were once convinced,
nothing would deter me from devoting
my life to the cause. I would study
divinity to morrow.”'’
, On leaving College, he yielded to the
wishes of his friends, and spent the
usual term in the study of Law. But
1 he gave, even then, as he frequently
! confessed,as much attention to theolo
gy and military science, as to the study
of jurisprudence. Immediately alter
his admission to the bar, he avowed his
intention of abandoning the profession
—which he always disliked—and ol
devoting himself to Theology. His I
doubts, at this time, appear to have
been removed. Having obtained the
consent of his friends, he entered him
self at the theological school at Cam
bridge; pursued his professional stu
dies with great ardor; ami alter the
usual period, was licensed to preach.
His performances in the pulpit wore
very acceptable; and his whole con
duct evinced seriousness and piety.
His theological opinions, at first, were
Unitarian, but they gradually approach
ed the systems of Galvanism.
About the time he began to preach,
' his attention was unfortunately directed
to the Jewish controversy; and after
studying it for some time, he declared
to his astonished friends, that “ the
Jews had the best of the argument.”—
This declaration was followed by his
abandonment of a profession which he
could no lojiger conscientiously pursue.
His book against the evidences of Chris
tianity, which he published not long
afterwards, was very ably answered by
bis relation, Mr. Cary; and by Mr.
Everett.
In the year 1816 or 1817, he obtain
ed a commission as a Lieutenant of
M arines, and was sent abroad to the
squadron cruising m the Mediterranean.
After serving a year or two, he obtained
a furlough and visited Constantinople
and the principal cities of Asia Manor.
—Here his love of military enterprise
induced him to resign JiU commission,
and to enter the service of the Pacha
of Egypt, with whom he has continued
in active warfare till the present year.
It is a remarkable fact, and will be
remembered by many of the classmates,
that-Mr. English had in his possession,
at college, a huge Turkish scymetar,
which he was accustomed to shew to
his friends with much enthusiasm. Even
while a student of theology, his favorite
exercise was fencing with the broad
sword.
Os his present tlieological opinions,
nothing certain is known. It has been
asserted that he was a convert to Islam
ism; but it has also been denied. As
he is about returning to his native coun
try, he will soon bo able to answer for
himself.
Mr. English is a gentleman of amia
ble disposition, of frank and simple
manners, and of pure morals. While
his departure from the Christian Faith
cannot be considered without the deep
est sorrow and apprehension, it may
be hoped that he will yet return to the
Christian Church; and bring all the
powers of his active and/ adventurous
mind, and all his profound and various
learning, to the cause of his country
and mankind.
It is worthy of notice, and well illus
trates the enterprise of the American
character, that while Mr. English was
extending the banners of the Crescent
to the sources of the Nile, ong of his
classmates was preaching the doctrines
of the Cross to the natives of Ceylon;
another was fighting under the stand-mi
of independence in Mexico, and a third
was circumnavigating the globe.
GEORGE B. ENGLISH.
This eccentric young man who
brought himself into notice in this coun
try by a violent attack upon the Chris
tian Religion, and afterwards emigrated
to Turkey, where he embraced Mo
hammedanism, and was appointed an '
officer in the ”1 urkish army, is |
edly the author of U*e fetter recently
