Howard Malcoin, in 1 volume tevo. and 2 volumes ]2mo., with a superb map of Southeastern Asia, five steel plate engravings and nearly lilt) wood cuts. Characteristics of the Work. —lt is not a mere diary oi events which befel the traveller, but contains thousands of facts, dates, numbers, prices, &c. &c. which are either original or gleaned from sources not accessible in this country. Incidents, anecdotes, and scenes have been freely introduced, but only sucli as tend to make the reader better acquainted with the country. The most perfect impartiality is shown to every sect of Christians, and such details giv en of the various missions as will make the work equally acceptable to every persuasion. Such sketches are given of the history of the countries, towns, and missions which are described, as serve to throw light upon their present condition. The map is beautifully executed, and may be considered original. Many important correc tions have been made by actual observation, and the remainder is chiefly drawn from origin al and unpublished surveys by British officers, engineers, and surveyors, to which the author was politely granted access. The pictures are wholly new, and form an important addition to our stock of oriental il lustrations; no pains or expense has been spared in the mechanical execution of these. Five are on steel, showing landscapes of Maul main, Tavoy, Mergui, iVc. and a page exhibit ing specimens of 15 different oriental languages. The remainder arc on wood, showing cos tumes, implements, buildings, fruits, Ac. A great part of the work relates to countries almost entirely unknown, even to the best in formed persons in our country. Though the work contains a large amount of missionary and religious details, yet it con sists chiefly of geographical, historical, politi cal, and statistical information, designed for general readurs. The author, from the important character of his mission, his intercourse with distinguished civilians and experienced missionaries, his de liberate stay at each place, his previous famili arity with foreign countries, and his long ex perience in the Board of Missions enj »ved the burliest advantages for gathering ample and correct details. Chapters on the mode of conducting modern missions; on the measure of success which has attended the enterprise; on the almost un known tribes in and around Burmah; and oth er important subjects, are added at the close of the work, and constitute no small part of its value. A laborious and complete index is appended to the work; together with a glossary of ori ental terms; in which three hundred and eigh ty words arc not only lucidly defined, but ac cented so as to show their proper pronunciation. The cost of the two volumes will probably not exceed $2 50, at which price it will be one of the cheapest works issued from the Ameri can press. The publishers rely for remunera tion rather on a large sale than a high price. A portion of the proceeds of the work are ap propriated to the Foreign Missionary Roard.

Larkin is a stout Mulatto fellow, about 28 years of age, 5 feet G to !> inches high—he has a scar on his , right cheek, also some marks of small pox about bis face, particularly on his nose, also a large scar from an axe on his foot, near the great toe. Larkn has rather a feeble voice for a man of his sfature. Cato is a black fellow, an African by birth, he is a stout, square built fellow, about 4 feet 4 to G inches high—has the mark of his tribe on his breast, he is like wise ruptured, and has a very large mouth. Dick is a small black, well set fellow, also an African by birth, with a roifnd face and down cast look, easily confused when interrogated; there is also a singular appearance about his mouth when alarmed. The above three fel lows were bought of the estate of Jno. 11. Mo rel, in March 183 G, and formerly lived at the Cottonham Plantation, Bryan Cos.

[Frazer's Magazine. THE SOUP. “Come, neighbor, do not need such pressing; Fall to and cat, Here’s quite a treat; For soup like this's a perfect blessing!” “Thanks! I don’t doubt it is delightful, But I have and ined.” “Nay, don't be spiteful.’’ “Upon my word, another bit, The best that came from pot or spit, I could not touch.” “Pshaw! a mere spoonful; for you don't ge such Rare soups as this, ’faith, every day. Tis made from a most choice receipt.” “Well, since you will not take the nay— Since I must taste, why e’en so be ’t.” “Come, that is rightly now agreed! Say, is it not delicious feed? How! Does it not your palate suit? Is it not rich enough, I pray?” “Its excellent, I don’t dispute, But “Hang your bats, and eat away!” Thus pressed the host, the poor guest, By’s importunity distress'd, Was forced to comply with his request, And just contrived his plate to empty. “Another spoonful!—let me tempt ye.” On this, upstarting from his seat, The guest at once made his retreat.

Insist on giving us another spoonful t ill Is c E Lr Is A A Y. The Elephant. —ln the year 1805 the British army laid siege to the city o Bhrutpore, in the East Indies. The siege was a long one, the army large, and attend ed by thousands of cattle and horses, ant a great many Elephants. In that ho country, so many men and animals, o course, drank large quantities of wate every day, so that when summer came wit! its dry winds, it was found that the tanks or ponds, began to fail, and were after ; while entirely dry. At these ponds, the cattle and Elephants always drank, so thai when they were dried up, there was »c water, except in the wells, which in that country are very large, being ten or twelve feet across. At one of these wells, on which they chiefly depend for water, there was a constant crowd of men and animals, all thirsty, and each one anxious to drink before the other, so that there was often much confusion,and sometimes hard words among the men who came to water the beasts. One day, two Elephent keepers, each with his Elephant, came as usual after wa ter. One of these animals was very large, and the other small and weak. A bucket had been given the small one by his keep er, which tie carried on the end of his trunk, but the large one had no bucket, nor had his keeper any, with which to draw up the water. The large Elephant being thirsty, and wanting to drink first, and seeing that the bucket in possession of bis weaker brother was in his power, seized it, and took it away from his poor fellow servant, who was probably as thirs ty as himself. The small Elephant knew his own weakness too well, to try to take his bucket again, or to punish such an in sult by open violence. lie therefore, for the present, remained quiet, probably thinking to take his revenge in some other way. The keepers, however, *quarrelled between themselves, and offered each oth er much abuse, because the master of the small Elephant thought the other keeper told his animal to take away the bucket. While they were quarrelling, the small Elephant was watching the large one, and seeking a chance to punish him for the insult: and seeing him happen to turn his side towards the well, he drew back a few steps, to give himself more force, and then rushed forward with all his might, struck his enemy such a terrible blow, as to pitch him fairly into the well. Such an accident to the fountain on which so many peeple -chiefly -depended for water, gave great alarm to the officers and others, for no one saw how the huge animal could be raised out, and therefore they thought he must perish there, and thus spoil the water. The well down to the water where the elephant lay, was a bout twenty feet deep, and the depth of water below him was considerable; so that he floated on the surface; and not being hurt by the fall seemed highly to enjoy so cool and comfortable a place, and made no exertions to get out. After some time spent in contriving what course could be taken to raise the animal out, without hurting him, his keeper thought it could be done by sinking fascines under him, and thus gradually raising him to the top of the well. Fascines arc bundles of small I wood, or brush, hound together, and are ■ used by armies, to fill up ditches or small , j streams of water, so that men and horses I; can cross them when there are no bridges. ■' A vast number of such bundles had been [prepared by the army, to be used in this . siege, and permission was given by the - 1 officers to use them on this occasion.— ! But who would believe that the elephant could he made to know how to use them, for in order to raise him up, they must he piled, one bundle on the other, hi a man ner so firm and regular as to bear his great weight when standing on them, llis keep er, however, soon taught him his lesson, and made him understand what he must do, with the fascines, so that when they were lowered down to him, the sagacious crca -1 ture took them one by one, and placed | them under him, until, in a short time, he was able to stand upon them. Seeing now that there was no danger, and thinking that he could get out when lie pleased, the cunning brute determined to enjoy the pleasure of his cool situation a little long er, and therefore refused to proceed with his work, nor could all the scolding, or j threats of his keeper make him place an other fascine under him. Finding that there was no use in trying to drive him, the keeper was obliged to he as cunning !as his Elephant. He therefore began to soothe him. lie praised him for what ho had already done, and promised him plenty j of brandy, or arrack, liquor of which this •animal is very fond, if lie would go and ; finish his work. The knowing creature, flattered by such praise, and encouraged I by such promises, again went to placing ! the fascines under him, with such diligence jas soon to raise himself so high, that by taking away some of the dirt and stones, i on one side of the well, he was able to step , out unhurt. The Upright Merchant.— There is no being in the world for whom I feel a higher moral respect and admiration than . for the upright man of business; no not for the philanthropist, the missionary, or [the martyr. I feel that I could more eas ily be a martyr, than a man of that.lofty | moral uprightness. And let me sny yet more distinctly, that it is not for the gen • erous man that I feel this kind of respect; that seems to me a lower quality, a mere impulse compared with the lofty virtue I | speak of. it is not for the man who dis tributes extensive charities—who bestows magnificent donations. That may all be v ery well, I say nothing to disparage it, 1 wish there were more of it—and yet it j may all consist with a want of true, lofty, i unbending uprightness. That is not the man then of whom I speak, but it is lie | who stands amidst all the vary ing inter- I ests and perilous exigencies of trade, 1 lirip, calm, disinterested and upright. It is the man who can see another’s interest jjust as clearly as his own. It is the man | whose mind his own advantages do not j blind or cloud for an instant; who could jsit as judge upon a question between I himself and bis neighbor, just as easily ns [the purest magistrate upon the bench of justice. Ah! how much richer tlinn er , mine, how far nobler than the train of j mnjesterial authority, how more awful ; than the guarded bench of majesty, is that simple, magnanimous and majestic ! truth! Yes, it is the man who is true— true to himself, to his neighbor, and bis I God—true to the right—true to his con- I science—and who feels that the slightest suggestion of that conscience, is more to him than the chance of acquiring a hun dred estates. Starting Children in the World. Many a parent labors hard and lives spar ingly all his life for the purpose of giving his children a start in the world. Set ting a young man afloat with money left him by his relations, is like tying bladders under the arms of one who cannot swim— ten chances to one he will lose his blad ders and go to the bottom. Teach him to swim, and then lie will never need the bladders. Give your child a sound edu cation, and you have done enough for him. See to it that his morals are pure, and his mind cultivated, and his whole nature subservient to the laws which gov ern man, and you have given him what! will he of more value than the wealth of; the Indies. You have given him a “start” j of which no misfortune can deprive him. The earlier you’ieatdi him io depend upon his own resources the better. For the Ladies.— A new icat / to make calicoes wash well. —lnfuse three gills of salt in four quarts of boiling water, and put the calicoes in, while hot, and leave it till cold. And in this way, the colors are rendered permanent, and will not fade by subsequent washing. So says a iady who has frequently made the experiment herself. Advance of poverty in early life. —An English judge being asked what contribut ed most to success at the bar, replied, “Some succeed by great talent, some by • high connexions, some by a miracle, but • the majority by commencing without a i shilling." | Feminine Heroism. The following tragic occurrence took place on Mon day night last, near Bloomsbury, Warren county, New Jersey, about 8 miles from Easton. About !) o’clock on the evening ! ailudpd to, a negro slave aged about ’J!) years, and belonging to General William son, who was from borne, and, having conducted himself improperly, was order ed from the premises by Mrs. Williamson. He returned to bis master’s residence, where lie staid until about midnight, when he again repaired to the house of the son and demanded admittance. M rs. W. com manded him not to enter, for if he did he would jeopard his life. He disregarded the threat, forced open the door, and cn | tercil the room, upon which Mrs. W. took [up a loaded gun, which her husband al ways kept, approaching the negro, who still persisted in endeavoring to accom plish his wicked design, and shot him. The load entered his breast, he stagger ed back a few feet and fell dead on the floor. The lady is a daughter of Mr. Drake, of Washington, New Jersey. She was left alone with her children, in a house ; located at some distance from any other, [and with no means hut those made use of to preserve her chastity and honor, which I were threatened by the slave.—[Easton j Sentinel. The Heroine of Siiakspeaiif.’.s “Measure for Measure.” —There is nothing highly heroical in this drama ex cepting Isabel. I remember being once coy in my admiration of this seemingly cold heroine, hut better reflection lias taught me to think otherwise. What would become of the human race, if the pride of woman in her purity were capa ble of compromise? Adieu to all domestic affections! Tlie dishonoring of the sex is introducing death into the source of life. This thought never struck me more forcibly than in reading the scene in Whet stone’s play, in which Cassandra comes, disguised as a boy, to the house of Protnos, iu order to purchase her brother’s life by the surrender of her virtue, and w ith the hope promised to her by Promos that he 1 will skin over her shame by marrying her; a hope that deepens her degradation. 1 said to myself, thanks to Shukspeare that Isabel would have seen a thousand broth ers perish, sooner than have submitted to such a shame.— [Campbell. Peanut Oil. —VV’e hail the piece of in formation which we find iu the Wilming ton (N. C.)

The Wilmington paper aforesaid informs us, that a gentle man of that county has successfully made the experiment of obtaining from these nuts au oil which he has submitted to the opinion of a number of his fellow citizens, who unanimously concur with him in the opinion that as a sallad oil, and for hurtl ing, it is most praiseworthy. Heaven prosper the application of this experiment to such an extent that ere long a whole peanut will not he seen north of “Mason & ( Dixon’s line.”—[N. Y.

I While in good health, food should not he [ stimulating and medicinal, but uutricious. j Coffee is medicinal, and therefore cannot be a healthy beverage. A Feb-ler. —A surgeon and a lawyer had very little good feeling towards each j other, and the following occurrence took ! place:— “If,” asked the surgeon, “a neighbor’s dog destroy my ducks, can I recover dam i ages by la.v?” “Certainly;” replied the I lawyer, “you can recover. Pray what; are tiie Circumstances?” “Why, Sir, your 1 dog, last night, destroyed two of my ducks.” “Indeed! Then you can ccr-: tainly recover damages. What is the j amounts I'll instantly* discharge- it."— j “l-'our shillings and sixpence,” chuckled [ the surgeon. “And my fee for attending' and advising you is six shillings and eight' pence,” responded the attorney, “and uu- ! less you immediately pay the same, iny 1 conduct will be suitable.”—[Honest Law yer.

A Beau tiful Sentiment.— I The late em inent judge, Sir Allen Park, once swid at a public (neeting iff the city; ‘ YVe live in .the midst of blessings, till we are utterly insensible of their greatness, and of the source from which they flow. We speak of our civilization, our arts our freedom, our laws, and forget entirely how large a share of all is due to Christianity. Blot Christianity out of tlie page of man’s his tory, and what would his laws have been— what his civilization? Christianity is mix ed up with our very being and our daily life; there is not a familiar object round us which does not wear a mark, not a being or a thing which does not wear a diderent aspect because the light of Chris tian hope is on it, not a law which does not owe its truth and gentleness to Chris tianity, not a custom which cannot be traced iu all its holy and healthful parts to the Gospel.”—[London paper.

Taylor has sent to our office au ear or ears of Corn, grown upon his plantation in this county during the post season, which has fifteen ears united at their base and all were en closed iu a single sheaf. The corn is the common flint species and appears to be a lusus nattirer. —[Alabama Journal. Mrs. St. Patrick — Mrs. Si. Patrick —we never heard of her ladyship before —was toasted at the Hibernian dinner given at Nashville in honor of St. Patrick’s day. Mr. Troost, the gentleman who gave the toast, drily remarked.lhnt he nev er was a favorite of the Saints, blit as re garded their wives and daughters, that was not the case.' He therefore propos ed a bumper in commemoration of the consort of the venerable St. Patrick, and hoped she might intercade with herfgood man, who formerly delivered the ovld c%tnthry from loads, snakes, and sichlike ‘‘varmints,” to do a good turn for this and deliver it from all kinds of creeping and flying bugs, and particularly musca ters. The novel sentiment was received with three times three. Use of Disappointment. —A story is told ol a Scotch nobleman who, in order to break his daughters of too ardent a pur suit of pleasure, would allow them to ac cept of an invitation to a ball—dress for it—order his equipage to the door, but just as the expectant girls were about to step into the carriage, would suddenly re mand it to the coach house, order the young Indies to lay aside their ball dresses, resume their common habiliments, and re turn to the quiet avocation of the family. At a hotel a short time since, a servant girl enquired of a gentleman at the break fast table it his cup was out. “No," said he, “hut my coll'ee is.” The poor thing was considerably confused, but determin ed to pay him in his own coin. While at j dinner tho stage drove up, and several j coming in, the gentleman asked, “Does the stage dine here?” “No sir,” said the j girl, but the passengers do.” Shakspeare Modernized. Two loafers were spoutiong the other day, in trout of a Batik; when one drew a wallet from his pocket, and said, “He who steals this, steals trash. “ Y'es,” replied tho other, “and ho who filches from you your good name, takes from you what you ne ver had. ; Pn cions Genius. A boy at tlie ago lof ten years went to school /or the first time. The teacher to test his informs-' jtion, asked him ‘who made you?’ The boy could not answer.
