I ...■ ’';—— _ _ ; NOTHING IS BENEATH TAE AT TENTION OF A GREAT MAN- This short sentence is insribeJ over the door of the small building in Holland which was once the work shop of Peter the Hreat, and furnish es, more than volumes of common descriptions could do, an insight into the character of the man who raised the Muscovites from the deepest bar barism to the rank of civilization, & laid the foundation of an empire, the extent of which the world as yet seems little able to comprhend. : One of the most fatal errors to which men are subject is the disposition to treat small matters with contemptu ous indifference; forgetting that great things are but small ones, and that discoveries and events of the great importance to the world can be trac ed to things most insignificant in themselves. Nothing more truly makes an original mind, ami stamps its possessor as a truly great man than the seizure of circumstances which would pass unnotice I by the great multitude, and by subjecting them to the powerful analysis of his reasoning powers, deducing infer ences of the greatest practical re sults. Ihe loadstone to attract iron has !)een known from time immemorial; , accident discovered the fact that a I magnetized needle would indicate the north, but for a long time this 1 truth was productive of no result. — ’ In ihe hand of Flavia ( »oja of Amal i fi it produced the mariner’s compass . an instrument which has changed the ' whole course of commerce, 4* open ed America and Au tratia to tin rest ofthe world. To mention only one i of the things that the use ofthe com -1 pass in maratime discovery has led ’ to-it has given the potato to !• tiropc and thus trebled the means of subsis tence as well as doubled the popula tion. W e owe the Galvanic Voltaic bat tery one ofthe most powerful instru mentsin advancing science the world has yet seen, to Madame Galvaiiius noticing the contraction .of the mus i! cles of a skinned frog act ideiiLdly I touched by a person on whom her r husband was at the moment making some experiments oi Gab a:ii & Vol ta were followed up by • avy, Hare, and Silliman, and eliects w hit h han astonished and instruett <1 the worltl have been the result. 'l'he drv Gal vanic pile in the hands of the discov erer, De Lue, was nothing more than a scientific plaything. Si >ger ol London, a mechanic of genius, saw the pile, and applied the power thus generated to moxiiig the ma efiiuery of a watch; <V one construct ed by ii has now run in h e t han sixteen y ears without winning or lov> of mo tion. A chemist wa> at wo?k, in his la botary preparing lor a cer tain purpose. A spark fell into this, composition and it e.xplo led; k from that day gunpowder was discovered. Some may question the utility of th s' discovery , but we do not. (iunpow - der has matt iially aided the miner,' the louihler anti ihe chemist; it has made war, where now carried on be-j tween nations, a much less evil than formerly; but more than all, it has given internal order and tran quility to the kingdoms of Eu rope by knocking down those stro g holds of feudal barbarism and tiuel ty, the < astles of a haugty anti domi neering nobility, and t la mg the weak, so far as rt gards protection I by law, and security to persons and J property, on akvcl with the highest. A Verman peasant carved letters on the bark of a beech tree, & with them stamped characters on paper for the amusement of his children. Nothing more was thought of this; but from it Faust conceived and exe cuted moveable type; and printing, an art that perhaps has exercised a greater influence on the destiny of mankind than any other, thus had a beginning. Galileo was at a church in Flor ence where a drovvay Dominician was hoiding forth on the merits ofthe Virgin and the miracles ofthe Holy Church; things about which the phi i losophers cared very little. The principal lamp of the church had been left suspended in such a man ner that it swung to anti fro by the slightest breath, and caught the eye of the philosopher.—The regularity I of its oscilations struck him, and the idea, of employing such vibrations to measure time occured. Galileo left the church and returned to his study & in a short time the first pendulum ever made was swinging. Some children playing with the glasses of a Dutch spectacle maker, ■ I accidentally placed two so that the ; steeple of a church appeared much . nearer and turned bottom upwards. From this small beginning was pro duced the telescope; an instrument which more than any other, has cn . i larged the boundaries of the universe ’ I and given to man more exalted ideas , of that being who spake all these . worlds into existence. About one hundred and fifty years ago, an old man might have been . seen in his study, appearantly amu . sing himself by r witnessing the escape . of steam from an old wine bottle and then instantaneously plunging it in . to the cohl water. There are mul . titvdes who wuld sneer at an observer I of nature who could stoop to notice such a trifle; yet this expansion and condensation of steams in the wine bottle, and the thoughts which it sug gested, in the hands ofthe Marquis of Worcester, gave birth to the Steam engine, the most valuable pre sent Science ever made to the Arts. 'These very men who are now filled with delight and astonishment when they behold the beautiful steamboat . majestically ploughing the waves or the steam car whirling in a train of carriages over the rail road with al most the rapidity of thought would be the first to look and speak with contempt of the train of causes which led to sti< h results. But perhaps the example of New ton, more than any other, conclusive ly proves that there is in the whole circl ■ of nature, nothing trifling to u truly great mind. Thousands had seen apples fall from the trees to the earth; yet no one had ever asked the question whether the cause that caused the apple to fall to the earth > extended to the moon? vet this question and : ts solution was the key that has unlocked the mechanism of the utiivt r.ie, & given to man power and ideas, which could otherwise ne ver have existed. 1 he great truths these examples inculcate is this—that there is noth ing trifling in nature, nothing that is not worthy of attention and reflection nothing that does not form part of the great ch' n of cause and effect, and cooscq eutly capable of leading to the . moss ofthe tiller of the soil to think. If this is not true, the, position should be exploded at once It is scarcely possible for a man to be more favorbly situated for an ob servation of nature than the farmer. His business is with the soil he treds upon, u i.h its various constituents then ever varying proportions—with ’he green earth and its coverim? of 10.
