So much so, answered I, that if it
were for my own particular use, I
could not want it more.
I think, said he, that l know a man
that can do it for you, a particular
acquaintance of mine,—(very parti

over the way and see him. Call on

Very well said I, and walked
off.
My worthy friend then saw me
out of sight .and then went into his
own office and sat down. Presently
I came in. 1 knew very well what lid
was about to say.
I have been to see the person 1
spoke of, said he, but could not
find him.—Wait a moment and I will
try again. 1 sat down, and Mr. Sharp
walked up the street, took a turn a-
round the old state house and came
back.

friend.—There was no remedy,

spirit, who, on the very verge of the
precipice, amuse* it with false hopes
of health and life, and cheats it of the
last moments granted for reconcilia

must the ruined soul, ‘when we shall
meet at account,’ frown upon him,
who, for his momentary advantage,
may have concealed from his view

TREATMENT OF CHILDREN.
The moral effect of pampering the
appetite of children by unceasing in
dulgence, is most melancholy. Is the
mother afraid of an explosion of
passion, a bribe in the shape of a cake
or tart, is promised as a peace-offer
ing to the little body. Doe9 it annoy
a whole company by its cries or bois
terous and'ill-timed pranks, it is per
suaded to he quiet by the promise of
some sweetmeat or extra indulgence j which are raised is esteemed quite
wheat, bean* and peas, one third of
that of mnize, and two thirds of its
produce of flax and rice, are left over
from its domestic consumption, for the
purpose of exportation. Ofcotton—
the better species of which resem
bles the best kind of Brazilian—more
than 200,000 cwt. have been brought
to market in one year, though the
cultivation of this article lias not been
pursued above seven years. The su
gar cane is grown in Upper Egypt,
and produces bet neon 40 and 50,000
cwt. one half of which circulates as
merchandize, in a raw state. Were
this article treated with proper skill
and attention, it rhiglit not only be
cultivated with much profit and to an
immense extent, hut would be found,
from its intrinsic excellence, far su
perior to any W r est India produce for
refiner's use. The raising of indigo
lias been attempted on a considerable
scale, and with great success, of late
years; and of this product 60.000 oka,
or 135,000 pounds, have been sold
from one twelvemonth's growth.
The finest of the three qualities
