The American Aladdin. ; When wo go out on Saturday afternoons to . moralize and see new houses, wc usually take our voting ones hy Aladdin's pal&e. Aladdin was a Yankee. He started life by swapping jack knives, then I'iiltiug the halves of broken marbles ; togetlies’ and passing them oft as whole ones. — j When he had gathered some brass he went to j sehool all the summer to learn the golden rules ; of arithmetic —addition for himself and substrno- ; ’ tion for his neighbor.

Ball left, the Glen House on Wednesday afternoon, at 2 o’clock, to take a short walk up j on the new carriage-walk which has lately been built. That brought him to a small shanty at the/lbot of the ledge. / After arriving there he thought lie would go up the ledge for a short distance. Finding it very stormy after travel ling a mile or two, lie turned back to the shan ty, and by this time it was V o’clock in the even ing. The occupants of the shanty desired him to remain over night, and he did so. The next morning it still rained, and seeing the path over tht* ledge quite clearofsnow he thought he would go over the ledge. Wi'h an umbrella to protect him from the storm, he traveled over the inouti : tains towards the summit. After going a mile and a half it began to snow very violently. The l-i'dr was so covered that it could not be teen, and I in’ made the best-way he could in various direc : tions, still going up. 110 had passed the second (mountain, ami, thinking himself near the sum mit, was induced to go on. As he came upon the third mountian the wind blew a hurricane, GRIFFIN, GEORGIA, SATURDAY MORNINiT,-NOYKMP.KR 24, lSr>s. completely cutting otfall observation. Ileeotiliti-; ; tied, however, to ascend, and finally reached the fourth mountain, on which stands the Summit I House. There the storm was even more violent j ! than on the-third mountain, the wind sometimes ’ j throwing him o|f lus feet and forcing him to turn to get. his breath. After battling with the storm for two hours, and not being able to detect the Summit House, he concluded, at 3 o’clock I‘. M.. to retreat down the mountain. i Turning then he commenced the descent, but ! could not find his tracks, nub went on. merely ‘ guided by the fall of the land. / He filially came upon some stakes put down in laying out a road to the summit, lie followed these down until j near night, in ending to follow to the base of the j mountain, as he had <>n uhi* “.Ai aJj*- mottfth'ivn ite tv"c * butimlmy I,.sing them, and * night coming on, he was lotced to look tor a place of shelter front the storm. He fastened ji is timbrel la between a rock and some bushes,; ami then, pulling up some dead wood and brush, he piled them’ over the top of the umbrella, and then laiibdown under it. There here ttmined the whole night constantly’ moving to prevent being frozen. lie was very drowsy and sleepy, blit managed to keep awake ! until daylight. Then arose and sought an out- ‘ let, it being foggy at the time, but not stormy. — He spent the whole day in wandering in ‘Filer cut dilections, and. finding no outlet, letiiriied to I the same place. Night again came on, and he ! mad'* preparations to spend it on tie- mountains. He tiicd to light a lire, but the w ind was so strong ! and there was so much snow that he eotiid ! not. i The night was passed tho same as before, with ! out sleep, and the next, morning he arose at day- I liglit, came out, and, leaning on a rock, excrei; and his feet, wliieh were both frozen belovv the au j kies. j After two hours’ exercise he set out again to i try to get oil'the mountain. While standing l a ; a few moments to consider which way to go Ie-’ ’saw the nart v who ware in search “I him. lie i cried out to them, and they stopped shott and I came to his relief. They were much amazed to find him alive and :ib!e to walk. With tiuii assistance lie walked down to the shanty, which : was about two miles distant, which [dace he ! reached on Saturday at ft o’clock T. M., 1 *r. Hall having been w ilhotiL food or slo p tor sixty homs. Both feet were here found t” he badly frozen,’ lii’id ahu most of thelriTgers of bot li hands; A I-; j ter waiting half nil hour lie was conveyed to the : i ileti House, where he received every possible nt- I tcntion. Connec iK ii’ Notions. —A vole has recently , j been taken bv tb,e jieople of t.’oiliiect'.eut upon : an aineiidment to the State ConslituLion, rerptir- • i ing everv person to be able to read any article j ■in the Constitution or .any seetjou oftlj” statu'ys. ] of tlic State, before being admitted 1 as iTti eh:e-j : tor. It it needless to say that in such a State,; where the peo])le are taught from their childhood | to value the advantages of an education, as su- j perior to the adventitious accessories ol birth i and fortune, the amendment w.as adopted with j an almost entire unanimity. The vote is. char-! acteristie of the people, who for native shrewd-; | ness, (“mother wit,’ .as it may be called.) genet--; ial intelligence, useful practical information and a peculiar adaptation or fitness for any and I eveiy situation in life, are unrivaled the world j | over. Connecticut is the best governed _ State i in the Union, as the census statistics iud'sptita- j | bly demonstrate. It has the largest population j ! in proportion to territory, the smallest public I debt, carrying out the same relative comp u i: oils, j tlm fewest paupers and criminals, the most, cron-; j otnically -governed, and, in proportion to popuhi-! ! iion, the iargest school fund. She lias been dor- [ i'ively called “the hand of wooden nutmegs and Yankee notions: her proudest title, as we esti mate it is, “the land of schoolmasters.” No conn-, ! try in the world more highly estimates the bless in gs <>f education, and none lias been more in-; stnimeulal in disseminating those blessings j throughout the length and breadth of the land.- (if the population in Connecticut, amounting to 380,000 souls, there are only white -adults ‘ wlmcan.,not read and write, and of this numbei j 4012 were hren abroad. The noble monument! ! of Connecticut’s pride and glory is her School jKi no, It is as scrupulously ami religiously re : g.urded and reverenced, as it it weie a holy relic: jan attempt to trench upon it, however pressing j might be the emergency, would be deeuu-d an ; ! act onl -of saciih ge. In this small common wealth, one of the smallest in the I iilon. tli", : school fund amounts to over two millions of dol j lars. A few,particulars, in relation to the use j j and disposition of the interest annually accruing ! ftom this fund will not be uninteresting. ‘J hi : number of children between four and six of j age is 00,382, of w hich 74,300• attend school.— The number of teachers is 1790. Besides which , ; there tire 403 private scools of all guides, with 8100 scholars. From this statement it will be j seen that there are only fourteen thousand cliil- Jren in t!ie whole State who are not imbibing useful knowledge at these puresprings of science, 1 .and qualifying themselves to-become good and j useful citizens. The school fund of Connecticut is { all sufficient to give to all her children a sound •elementary education gratuitously ; the fountains’ of knoledge are open to all “without money and i without price,” and there are none so poor that are forsaken and left destitute by the fostering care of the State, of what is only less precious than the bread of life. There are some other institutions besides her common schools, which are supported by the* State, and for which she is entitled to all praise, j wml which is deserving of imitation. One ofi iljii.'se is a Normal School “for the training of fteachers in the art of instructing and governing, i the common schools of the State.” The tuition {is free, and the number of pupils who are berej ! every year qualified to act as instructors are two ; hundred and twenty. Another most praisewor-j j thy institution is the “State Reform School,” es tablished “for the instruction, employment and ’ reformation of juvenile offenses.” The youth who j from evil example, or the common infirmities of, nature, has been led to transgress the laws of the’ country, but who has not become inured to crime, and callous to the voice of admonition and conscience, instead of berngcommittedto prison, to become stillmoresteepedin crime and villainy, j is seut to this school, to be kept, disciplined, and ; instructed under tnedirectipn of a board of trus- j tresuntiltbev shall eitherbereformed anddischarg- j “Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.” i < (1 nr bound nut to sen iccer remalnh <1 topr - ■ >i> as i'lteorrigil'd'.. Sai-h being the nature, eliar.ietei and win kings r.t’the cdn*Mtioual institutions of I thi-. State, it is not at all to be wondered at. that’ in its politic i! government, in the tone of moral .sentiment, the cultivation (if all the useful nits, and in its general piospeiitv, little C’.muectictit i should have attained such an exalted and • nviii- i bie distinction. | Neither is it at all strange that a people who have Ivah/.0.] themselves to such a degree the ; advantages of education, should !..• dispos.-.l wiien suasive means fail, to force bv a rational pettahy tlic precious Imh,ii upon those who :pc fse’t willing to lake it when fieely ofteied to them. ..
