We all know the real object nf the present mo

nvailonrselves of the present auspicious period ol
peace and harmony in adjusting some of our home
concerns, Ilian in assailing or landing the adminis
tration with a reference to loture elections, and seek
ing to commit the State thus early to any man for
tli, next presidency. We have to adjust ami equal
ise our Slate representation, and bring the Cherokee
business to a final close, to say nothing of tbs trifling
subjects of lateral improvement and of education,
which some are so silly ns to think involve the pros
perity and well being, one of them of the present,
and the other of future generations. If we are to
form our judgment of this administration by the sup
posed f’uturo interests of gre.it men, a fog and whirl
pool would very inadequately represent tlio obscur
ity of out view and the capricious gyrations of our
course. But if we look to it, and judge of it with
reference only to its tendency tn the extabliahment
and consecration of the principles for which we
have ull along contmided, nothing is easier than to
form an opinion of its merits. Its fidelity to our
principles can be judged of and sufficiently ascer
tained by one single criterion—Economy.
The manufacturers driven from direct protection,
now limit their claims to such incidental protection
us can be given within tko revenue boundary. The
larger the revenue wanted for government therefore,
the larger is the debateublo ground. The history
ofthe great pnrtiea of the Union, may be written
in advance. They are to run oil the tacks, (he one,
of profusion, and the tho other, of ecomomy. In
other words, the Federalists, Consolidatumists, Man
ufacturing-Tariff, and ‘yonr efficient Governmonl’-
inen, will ull fall into the Prodigal ranks, and per
haps nssuine that genorcal name. W hile the Slate
Right strict constructionists, and all tho other clas
ses of the Jeffersonian Republican school, will march
under the oh! fashioned *' Radical” flag. Profusion
or retrenchment, is now the hinge of the game,
and any man at his plough may form a satisfactory
opinion whether any given measure lends to open or
close the sluices of expenditure.
POSTSCRIPT.
Tho South Carolina Convention which met at
Columbia on Monday the 11th, appointed a Com
mittee of 21, composed of the same persons ns
before, with the exception of two absent members
whose places wore filled by Ex-President Hamil
ton, and another. The Committee on the 13th,
made a report in pari in which, speaking of the
r ccent modification act, they sny that,
“Though the reduction provided fur by the Bill,
which has just passed, is, neither in its amount or
Die time when it is to go into effect, such as the
3outh had & right to require ; yet such nti approach
lias been made towards the true principles on which
the duties on imports ought to be ad justed under our
system, that the People of South Carolina are wil
ling, so far to yield to the measure, ns lo agree that
their Ordinance shall henceforth be considered as
haring no force or effect.”
And conclude this part of their report by re
commending the following,
“ORDINANCE.—Whereas, the Congress of the
United States,by an act recently passed, has made
Midi a reduction and modification of the duties upon
fnreigji imports, n« amounts substantially to an ulti-
nate induction of the duties to the Revenue Stand
ard ; and that no higher duties shall bo laid than may
be necessary to defray the ecomonical expenditures
of the Government.
It is therefore. Ordainedan<l DeclaredThat the Or
dinance entitled “ At) Ordinance lo Nullify certain
acts of the Congress of the United States, purport-
agio be laws laying duties on tl»e importation of
foreign commodities," and all acts passed in pursu-
ance thureof, be henceforth deemed and held to have
no force or effect : provided that the arl entitled
1 nu act further to alter and amend the militia laws
f this State,” passed on the 2'Jtli day of De
cember, 1832, shall remain in foTce until it shall be

REPORT.
In making my report, I have not only considered
"w a given number of pupils may be seated so as
to merely have space to perform their scholastic
exercises and requirements with ease and in pres-
eiiee of the teacher, hut i have been governed
h>* u particlur regard to the preservation of tluur
health, and by n desire to render tba school room a
pleasant scene, and by the- fact too, that well order-
vx'cxcd schools or those composed of pupils of
both sexea, each reciting and performing in the
other’s presence, all under Die principal uupeiin-
hadenen of one male teacher, ire gradually and de
servedly becoming popular. In our country litile
or no attention has heretofore been given to the lo-
titimi or construction of School H iuses on any one
these several accounts. A Sfdiool House or Acad
Br 'iy, has been desired, and a HoihSE has been built
■dten remote from a good spring or well, on a naked
£°iniuon or barren waste, where no beauty is, no
r, igr.int parterre, no delightful grove; nothing lo
reate or arouse pleasant sensations, no sensible ob-
“ot to win the affections, o> engender happy nsso-
iitioinq or to draw *, enchautingly bind the mind to
|J»«f devoted «pot.—No! A place has been made
without f nrw nn ,i vo id"— a prison, houno, into
1 . numbers jar disproportionate to its healthful
*pacity have been stowed ns captive staves into a
"Ps wold, inhaling a vitiated atmosphere to the
” ruc don of their health and comfort, and to their
^sequent hindrance jfrom progressing delightful-
• ln their scholastic exercises. As one step to the
m ° V! [ l 0! ; prevention of all these evils, I propose

but as these may bo inUbn way of Telegraphs and

twelve inches wide, placed ton inches below the
aforesaid repository of each study table. The stu

pupihi. By another range of tables placed in or near
Die middle of the room, lengthwise, twenty others
may he sealed ; nr by two ranges equidistant from
the longitudinal centre line, forty others may be ae-
c.oimnod-.led- The whole length of these aitdition-
ul tallies, must occupy one fourth less of the length
of the room than the side tables do,bo as to leavesutli-
cient space in the centre of il. for a large Franklin
Store. Tims neatly seating ninety pupils, (if neces
sary) besido such as are not learning to write, and
who may be placed on low scats with their hacks

<....*.i...m .. -Rah Near tho centre,seats or chairs may
teaclu f
be provided for visitors. Where Die number ofpu
pits is not likely to ever be so great, as l have con
templated, the house may be proportionately shorter
and narrower. But lor the additional space and ex
pense that would he required for a given number of
pupils.study tables or desks just long enough for
two persons each, having seats with inclined backs
are perhaps more eligible than such ns I have men-,
tinned. The seats whether long or short, should be
slightly excavated the whole length.
For the AIM’ARATUS, 1 would have several
Telegraphs or block boards not less than four feel
long by two nml a half broad, suspended against
the walls between the windows, one behind the
teneber’sehair,&oue mnvingou a vertical pivot on a
post near the centre of the room so that either side
of il may be turned in any direction. Several others
portable by j’oung people would be desirable. I
would have the fallowing large maps: one ofthe
Slate, one of the United Slates, one of Europe, and
one of llie world, together with a box nf dissected
Maps. Also a pairot Globes with compasses placed
iuachest against the back of tho Teacher’s dunk.
A small Orrery would not be in the way. And from
what I have lieordpf it, I would recommend Moll*
brook's sot of* apparatus for various demonstration*.
\\ ilhout adding to the preceding list any chemical
or other philosophical apparatus. No doubt, many
persons may think tire arrangement here proposed
in apparatus, furniture, house, ynrd,*.c. unnecessa
rily fun* and costly, ami much more expensive than
were those Irom which have emanated some of our
smartest men. But of any caviller I ask, how nia
ny of our miserably contrived and furnished edifi
ces for learning, have turned out a majority, or even
a goodly proportion of their pupils smart, or proper
ly taught men, and pleased with the recollection of
school room scenes? Or how far removed is his own
association of ideas on this subject, from dulness,
sameness, monotony, confinement, restraint and
Bridewell ? How different from what it might have
been ! Does not every reflecting man know of the
influence e <l«»i led by pleasant external objects, on a
mind the le si disposed to meditation ? And, is
this influence less operutive on the juvenile than
the mature mind ? It is not; The mind though
young, but much-accustomed to contemplate any as
semblage of pleasant- scenery, recurs to it with de
light and leaves it with regret. Make the scenery
of tlie school room nml house imposing, and its gen-
aral aspect and circumslunco more pleasant than
many other good places arc, and the pupils (from
those pieces at least) will almost invariably pride
themselves in buying a seat in it. Let them' have a
local attachment to the aendemy, and they will more
readily encounter any severity of' scholastic discip
line, moral culture and reformation, merely in or
der to bo there. Il is hoped that nothing either
proximately, or remotely calculated to advance tbe
great cause of moral and intellectual improvement,
will be longer neglected; and that all and every
menu will bofli be sought for and prosecuted with
that degree of ardonr which the everlasting impor
tance of our subject demands.
GEORGE P. COOPER.
Tf.xas,—Some time since n convention was call
ed to frame n constitution ami laws, and organise a
Government for the StatcofTexas separately from
Obhauilii, and a belief prevailed, on this side ofthe
Sabine, that a secret design existed among tho in
habitants to threw off Die Mexican Government &
erect themselves into an indcpetidant power.—
Late accounts from that quarter, however appear
to show that tlie purpose of the colonists did not
extend to tho achievement of sovereignty for the
»Stote, but only to reform, and to relief from the
many oppressions and grieveances under which
they have been made to suffer through Iho narrow
and jealous views of their present Government.
The municipal authorities of Bexar, the capital
of Texas, as a preliminary step to the nttaniment
of redress and reform, presented on Dio HRh Dec*
last to Die State Government of Cohouila & Tex
as, a remonstrance, a copy of which was addressed
to other Jlyunlaniienlos, in order to invite unity of
action ; and the concessions which this document
demanded arc required iu tho bold tones of men
who understand their rights and possess the cour
age to Haim and enforce them.
The Convention was to meet on the lstof April,
ns we learn by our last accounts, which are to Dth
Feb.—upon the subject the Brazoria Gazetto re
marks that.
“ There appears to prevail some difference of o-
pinion, n.s to tho nature and extent of the .powers
with which tho Delegates will he vested who shall
he elected to represent the people of Texas in the
Convention directed to assemble on 1st of April, for
the promotion of a State Government.
As it is our most anxious wish to allay even the
slightest discontent on till political questions, and
especially upon one of so much importance ns this,
wc would suggest to tho people of each district the
propriety of giving special instructions, as far as
possible, to their respective Delegation, and tluif*,
put to rest every doubt as to the sovereign will of
tho people of Texas. Should there be a solitary
district opposed either to the measure itself, (which
wo do not believe) or to any part of it; or should
there bo elected a single member with instructions
to oppose any past ol Die known design ofthe Con
vention, there is no doubt as to' their being entitled
to a voice, that their reasons should and will In?
heard and weighed in the Convention, and allowed
all the consideration dictated by impartial justice
magnanimity and patriotism.
Since the liberal spirit of the citizens of Bexar,
has been so unequivocally ami incrgetically mani
fested in the Remonstrance, there seems much rea
son in yielding to n suggestion made by many ot
our most respectable and influential -citizens, and a
wish that we now are convinced, extensively pre
vails of holding the Convention at Bexar, the capi
tal of this Department. Unless there be mercinn-
ry troops stationed in tho capital to disturb the
Convention, and force our Representatives to “le
gislate with pistols in th$ir pockets,” we have no
hesitation in ossenting to the propriety ot this al
ternation in tho exterior plan ofthe Convention,
tho substantial object of which being to secure our
ancient and unalienable rights, by a reform of
Government, ami not a rebellion against the .Mex
ican .Vation, cannot bo affected by such a change.
The following official statement of tho sufferings
of the inhabitant* of the Island ofSt, Antonio,one
of tlm Cape do Voi ds, transmitted to the citizens
of Philadelphia by its Chief Judge, gives some
idea ot the h.therm unexampled distresses of this
ill-fuLed people. The total number of deaths iu
ui| the islands, is estimated at about 40,000 souls.
The fatal germ of famine first began to bud in
the month of March, 1831, and by a steady gradu
ation attained so frightful a growth as to destroy by
nu approximate calculation, near 15000 victims!
The scarcity of fruits* owing lo tho wont of wa-
ter at those places, where the ground in the months
ot April, May and June must be watered, and the
like want °f rain in July and August, plainly fore-
told the future fate of the Island. It seemed as if
the tour elements had combined in a longue the
better to effect tho complete annihilation ofthe
ill-rated inhabitants. Rain, which was wont to he
plentiful in the months of August and September,
Nf as eagerly but m vnin looked Tor. Tho see«te &,
plants which the husbandman with so much toil &
care had committed to the ground, produced disap
pointment nml despair. The intense heat of the
sun, in October scorched, burnt, nml utterly des
troyer! all sorts of fruitful vegetation.
“ Here began the work of fimino ! Its ravages
spread into every corner of tho Island—individual
property was no long respected, am] men ns fam
ished lions, laid the country waste ; whatever plants
or seeds had escaped the combined rage ofthe ele
ments, at onco disappeared before them. The
want of laborers, seeds, water, and naval resour
ces, served to sharpen the instrument ot death.—
Calamities wore increased jn proportion to the
wants of the people, nml things arrived at stichex-
tremes that not even places fit to bury the dead
could do had, and hardly sufficient.assistance in this
work of charity, so much so, that boring was re
sorted to, and (hard to say) part of those half burned
eel victims were eaten tip tlicir .staving fellow-crea
tures. The plague was hourly expected by the
surviving, owing to the corruption ofthe dead. A
man was however found who having till then led a
licentious tile, became an example of Christian
charity, and attended to the disposal of the dead.—
Famine and death continued with double vigor in
the following year, owing to the causes already
stated,
“ 1 his is a faithful st atomont of the condition
of the Island of St Antonio, on the 18th of Decem
ber 1832.

EXTRAORDINARY ADVENTURE.
Tlio singular account we gave about three weeks
ago of the bride who attempted on the ftecond night
after lior marriage to destroy her husband by pour
ing molten lead, like a “ leprous diatihuent" into
his ear, has been circulated liir and wide in the
newspapers. The incidents we related, have since
been confirmed by undoubted evidence. So (hat
what appeared to be nothing but sheer Romance turns
out to he Reality.
The case whs submitted to Die llonsc of Dele
gates a lew days ago iu Dio shape of a petition from
tho husband for a divorce—the Proceedings which
took plane upon that occasion will appear from the
following Report:
Teksuav, February 10.
Mr. Gholson said for the first time ill his life lie
rose to present a petition for a divorce. Me held in
his hand tho petition of William B. Williams for a
divorce from Mildred his wife. 'Phis petition, with
the accompanying documents, presented a story of
the most interesting character. It shewed that the
petitioner some years since paid liis addresses to the
indy, who afterwards became his wile, and was then
rejected by her—that subsequently, encouraged by
marked attentions in the conduct of the lady, of a
favorable change in her sentiments towards him, he
again addressed her, was accepted,and about a month
since was married to her—that the marriage was ac
companied by the usual festivities, and demonstra
tions of joy—and that on tho second night after the
wedding his murder was attempted by his wife, by
an ingenious device—that of pouring molten lend
into his ear. Mr. G. was of opinion, that, nil the
facts being considered iu this transaction,—it pre
sented a case of scarcely perceptible madness, in
which the defect of reason win only developed by
some great excitement, nod which at times broke
out into acta of an extravagant or monstrous nature.
If such was the fact, nml the lady was deranged be
fore marriage, that circumstances was sufficient to
authorize u divorce.
Mr. Brodnnx said that it was not. customary to
discuss the facta and merits qf petitions on their
presentation, and lie begged the House not to form
a busty opinion, which might unjustly prejudge Die
case of Die unfortunate female in question. Mr. B.
had received a letter from an intimate friend of the
lady’s family which gave a heart rending detail of
tlie circumstances of this sad affair. And lie thought
it would shew conclusively, that she was laboring
under a bereavement of her mental faculties, when
she made the attempt on her husband's life, and was
incapable of the ingenious device which his friend
from Brunswick seemed to think she had premedit
ated.
Mr. Gholson said lie was sorry the gentleman
from Diuwiddie had not understood his remarks.—
He had been induced to offer this petition contrary
to Die course he hud pursued during his whole pub
lic life—because it he was confident of uny thing
which had not come uiiler his own eye, lie was con
fident (lint this unfortuiiote woman wns in a stalo of
mental alienation at the time she made the attempt
on the life of her husband. He understood that it
was the ardent desire of all parties. DinLthis unhap
py marriage should be severed. 11 her deraligeinent
was caused by repugnance to the connexion she had
formed, it was clear that she would never ho restor
ed to happiness or reason, until released from it;
while, if rIio was deranged before marriage, it was
sufficient cause iu itself for n divorce.
Mr. Brodnnx explained. He had heard only n
part of the remarks nf Mr. Gholson, and had placed
an erroneous construction upon them.
'Phe petition was referred.
We adverted, that a good deal of evidence has
been submitted to the Committee for Courts of Jus
tice, touching this extraordinary ruse—and that there
is some contrariety of statement and opiuiqu ex
pressed, about tlie state of mind and the motives of
the female. Some consider her deranged—others
attribute to her motives which gave a deeper him of
atrocity to the strange art. It is stated in private
accounts, that she actually had rend the story, to
which we referred at the time, of the female who
had put five or six husbands out of the way by sim
ilar treatment; and that so slrnngly had this tale
(published, we believe, in tlie Lady’s Book,) seized
upon her imagination, that she distantly hinted, in
case of her marriage, she would like to imitate the
heroine's example. It is also said, that she had
made preparations, before she was married, for ex
ecuting her purpose—purchasing the very lend from
Mr. Williams s Store-secreting a spoon in the house,
and tapering it off to a point, for tlm greater facility
of pouring out the melted lend; and concealing her
design from her husband by ingenious tales and de
ceptive blandishments. He had scrupulously res
pected her maiden modesty, to the very moment of
her attempt upon his life.
Mr. W. Bears u high reputation for principle and
generosity—and is said to have declared that he will
support her for tlie rest of her life.
.The last Ilnrrishnrgli Reporter gives us the late
speech of a Member of the Beunsy 1 vnnia Legisla
ture, who was supporting a bill grunting a divorce.
It was io Die case of a lady and gentleman in one of
Dm towns of Pennsylvania. They had been raised
in the some town — educated at tlm mime sejiool—
their families had always been intimate—no objec
tion on the part of either pnrent— none on her part
—vet Dm moment they were married, she evinced
aueh an aversion to the bridegroom; tlint she. would
nerrr hare any thing to soy to him ! She had vve^kh
given him he'r hand while lu*r heart was another's
No blandishments on Ins pari, no expressions ot' tin
most devoted love, im entreaties of the parents,
could abate her aversion—and both parties were lin
gering out their lives, their families made wretched
by their mutual relations—1 lie• husband had relin
quished his pretensions t » her love—they were iu
fact separated—and a petition was presented for a
j Divorce. On this representation, tlm House unan-
I imously granted it. will not say a* Du* Petm-
; sylvania < >r.itor exclaimed up ui the occasion, “ Frnil-
! tv. thy name is Woman 1” because,! is more the lnn-
i gunge nf poetical fict-i »n, than of historical Irutli —
! |,ut we mu*t sny, that b«»ih these cases are sufficient-

As an antidote to tlm prejudice existing against
precocity of intellect, which so often blazes for a mo
ment and then expires, or sinks into obscurity, we
may justly adducy the splendid recollections which
attach to the nanu s of a Crichton. a Miramlolo, n
Newton, a Mozart, mid many others, whose pre
mature “ beauty of mind” has expanded into the
happiest maturity. There is every such promise as
tins about a .Sicilian b«»y qf the present ‘lav, whose
powers and brief parentage [7] nue dwelt upon in
t|,e following extract of a letter from Home :—
“The boy, Joseph Fuglisi, who lias just arrived
I,,.re from Fnlenno, the place of his birth, is indeed
blessed, us all who have heard and observed him
must admit, with the most extraordinary natural en
dowments. You shall judge for your.ydf of their
extent. 1F« is tho son of a glovo-ilinker in Palermo.
Tlm first evidence which Im gnr# of Ins intellectual
powers occurred about eighteen months a*« * '
he had just completed his sixth year. The occasion
was this:—an agent, having purchased a quantity
of gloves from several different individuals, Puglisi's
father went to fetch him pen and ink with a view to
find the sum total of the man’s purchases ; but lus
urchin of a son, who was at th* time in tlm shop,
called alter him that lie need not give himself the
trouble, as the whole amount was so many ounces
and odd. Being asked who had told him so, he re
plied, ‘ My own bead.' On summing up the sever
al items, Ins calculation was found to be perfectly
correct From this moment his arithmetical powers
were put to repented tests; nml they were brought
into t»iill further action by increasing tlm difficulty
of tlm questions set bill), which lie solved under the
gradual exhibition of a talent of far superior cali
bre. Uc father then came with him to Cutanea,
brought him under the notice of the Viceroy of Si
cily, and afterwards set off for Naples, where vouog
Puglisi produced his parent a golden harvest, be
sides acquiring on increase nf fame to his own share.
Thence lie found his way to this place, where lie has
been an object of astonishment and admiration in
ev«ry circle, and Ins been honoured with a hand
some gold medal, by the Pope lrimselt. You can
conceive nothing so astonishing as the hoy’s capaci
ty lor nil sorts of nr.Dimetical calculations, whether
they bo of the most trivial or the uhstrusest nature.
II is genius consists in his being perfectly sensible of
its pre-eminence, wielding it with masterly clearness
and precision, and at limes bringing il to bear with
surprising effsc.t. Hence it is. that he is enabled to
state the process through which lie arrives at once
nt his solutions, and, at the same time to explain Dm
difficulties which have attended them.—All tins it
done without any aid from science ; for, with the
exception of n knowledge of figures, Im can neither
rend nor write. For instance, on Ins being asked n
particular question, it wns necessary to explain what,
a sqifnf* root was to him, and after that lie instantly
gave his answer with minute accuracy. 1 heard him
in public yesterday : ten questions nf various de
grees of difficulty were set him, nnd he solved them
nil without hesitation or blunder. It was really a
most interesting scene. Tlm boy sat at first looking
about him with a laugh and a smile, obviously flat
tered at being the subject of attention to so numer
ous an auditory; but no sooner wns the first ques
tion started than tiis whole frame underwent c
change as instantaneous ns the sensitive plant, when
the slightest touch affects it. Whilst brooding over
it, Im laved with his hands, moved his body hack-
wards and forwards, and wns constantly shifting
himself about on Ins seat There was evidence ir
refragable in every motion of the internal working
of tho * wens dirinu.' On a sudden he sprang from
Ins seat, in a slate of indescribable ec,stacy, and with
eyes sparkling with fire, and exulting at his triumph
announced the result iu a strong and melodious tone
of voice. I must leave you to imagine the effect
which (ill this produced upon us. And Die same
scene was repeated at every fresh question and so
lution. Two of them were stated in so confused a
manner that not a soul in the room could compre
hend them ; nt the second, the hoy rose from his seat,
and, inncli lo our diversion, exclaimed, with his
broad, good humoured Sicilian, ‘ Lo saccin bin fare,
wa cssi non sanno dumandnre,' (I am perfeotly able
to solve tho thing, but they do not know how to pul
the question-.) lie wns usked if a certain quantity
of water ho contained in the Tiber, nnd eight men
were employed to remove it, how many days would
they consume fn the operation ? Upon this tho lad
inquired, almost before the words were out of tho
questioner’s mouth, ‘ You have forgotten to state
what quantity they bale out every day or every hour ?’
As soon as the hiatus was supplied, in less than three
minutes our young arithmetician stood up with Die
result, which involved some millions of figures. In
person he is of mi elfin rig size for his ng«, nnd be
tween robust nnd slender of make; his complexion
is sallow, his hair light-coloured, and his eyes blue,
though without any particular expression of liveli
ness or nuimntion ; his look, however, is soft wary
and tranquil.”

the rights of tbe Htatea. Home of the most eminent
men of the time solemnly declare Ilia same lobe their

Wa look upon that bill with the extremeet repug
nance. We disapprove its principle, and detest tlie
half vindictive, half bullying spirit which pushed
into maturity. Its only effect will be to keep alive

In the Virginia House of Dolegntee, 27th nil. a

Petursimrg, restricting the operation to the removal
of such free people of color as are already emanci
pated. The annual appropriation is lobe handed
over to tin* Colonization Society, by a Board consti
tuted of the Governor, the Lieutenant Governor and
Auditors, with such precautions us may secure the
faithful application of the fund to the purpose in

Can tiiis he true ? The authority is Imposing,

ity l«* see the book referred to. Eli. Jot/R.
“ We have received from Mr. W. U. Lucas, a
copy of u small volume published in Boston, con
taining an account of Casper Haussr^nn individual
who,after having been Ueept in a dungeon separa
ted frmn nil communication with the world, for se
venteen years, was found about five years ago, ex
posed iu the streets of Nuremberg. The partial ac
counts heretofore given of the circumstances, ns
well ns Die subsequent history of the mental nnd
physical devoinpemeut of the boy, have excited a
keen curiosity on the subject. The book contains
nil that is known. Il i« cniefly drawn up from tbe
legal documents, by Mr. Von Eeuerliack, President
of oils of the Bavarian Courts of Appeal, and in
troduced to tlie American public under the auspices
of professor Lieber,lhn editor ofthe Encyclopa-diu
Americana.
The whole story, beyond question authentic, is
real mystery, beyond even the fable of the celebrat
ed Iron Musk. That an infant should have been
immured in a dungeon, nnd preserved in a state of
intellectual infancy for so many years, utterly tin-
conscious of the exi-dence of animate beings,—even
of the changes of day and night,—fed upon bread
and water, ignorant even of the elements of speech,
nnd then-thrust forth into the streets by his unknown
jailors, as helpless nn child hut n yonr old—is one of
those enigmas which occurring in this day and gen-
tion, would but for Die irrefutable proof's, defy be
lief in its existence. Every effort has been made
to detect Die actors in tlie crime which has been
committed towards this youth, but they have as yet
proved unavailing. Borne intimations, are, howe
ver, thrown out in the work, that a clue has been
obtained which promises belter success on further
investigation.
A very interesting part of Die work is the psycho
logical phenomena, displayed in the mental pro
gress of Caspkr, when after having been kept from
nature ami all intercourse with rational beings, he
was suddenly, at seventeen years of age, born to
the world fof tbe first time intellectually, after his
phvNicnl boy hood and youth Imd nearly passed.
The hoy lias been adopted ns a foster child by nil
English nobleman, the Ear! of Stanhope, by whom
be will bo taken to England and educated.”
