138 ZEBCLOJf HOTEL ?ga gnwnflL Ton THE TSXZ01UM. A FAREWELL, TO A FAIR ViSITAHT AT UACCt. Farewell, Fair Maid: again the lyre Would strike it* cord* to cheer thy way; Though light the verse, and dim it* lire, For thee '(would beam one friendly ray. Time’* fleeting breath, how soon it goc», l/Oimuibered a* the gentlest wiudj As quietly as the streamlet flows. Leaving no passiug trace behind. When, from thy friends and kindred dear, The call* of friendship bid thee roam. May they, with filial feeling, cheer * Thy satis return to dome, sweet home. The flower*, fond objects of thy care, May thev have tclt no withering blast; Again may they thy culture share, And bloom more lovely then the last. The fnv'rit* song«tcrs of the grove Hall thy return with sweetest lay*; Again awake their note* of love; And charm thy path with warbling praise. OaCAH. MEN RAISED BY MERIT. Dr. FBAN KLIN, who, from a journeyman printer, became one of the greatest men in tho civilized world; and whose life, written by him- t. ( .l|, is » beautiful illustration of what may be effected by industiy and application. Watt, the improver of the Steam Engine, and there by the donor of tlte greatest gifts ever bestow ed on the human race hy man, was a mathe matical instrument maker, in a very humble sphere. His labors have boned ted mankind to ho extent of thousands of millions; and his laindy, by upwards of one millioii sterling.*— Si? Richard Arkwright, the great improver of tho Cotton Mill, was a common barber.— Tlte great Dr. Hutton was a coal porter.— Hijodart, an eminent mathematician and mo dulus., and known from his improvements in tho manufacture of cordage, was a shoe maker, Brindley, a man brought forward by tho duke of Bridgewater, from the humble condition of a common laborer, unablo to read or write, be came the greatest Civil Engineer of his day, for tho construction of canals. Bramah was a common joiner, and established himself os a m ichinist in London, where he became cele brated to Ins various inventions, among which bis Hydrostatic Press, and his Locks, stand pre-eminent. Leslie, who fills a Professor’s ch tir in the University of Edinburgh, was a common Shepherd-Boy. Stevenson, who h:iili thu Light House on Bedrock, (which is drv only once or twice for a few hours in the Nt v,) a work of groat difficulty ami merit, was ■a Tin-plate Worker.—Calcutta pamphlet. * It is calculated that Watt's improvement of the steam engine is at present an annual saving of labor la Great Britain of twenty-five millions sterling! And that, with a papulation of fourteen millions, she U c* qu it in resources, with tbd assistance of the steam en gine. to a population of one hundred and seventeen millions! This will explain the power end the rank which Great Britain holds among the nations of Eu rope, being in resource* actually superior to all that could unite ngahiit her. Post Office.—From tho 1st of October, 1826, to the 31st March, 1327, <104 new Post Offices were established in the United Stntes, viz;—In Maine 14, Now Hampshire 7, Ver mont 5, Massachusetts 9, Rhode Island 2, Con necticut 6, Now Jersey 6, New York 54, Pennsylvania 34, Dolawaro 1, Maryland 3, V.rginia 51, North Carolina 38, South Caro lina 19, Georgia 16, Florida 5, Alabama 1C, M :.s's»ippi8, Louisiana 3, Arkansas 4, Ton- ao^ce 29, Kentucky 19, Ohio 31, Michigan 2, Indiana 9, Illinois 7, Missouri 5, China.-—In an oracle in the Now Monthly Magazine, it is remarked, that moro close exu- ni nation has proved the fabulous nature of nriny of the accounts extensively credited, du ring part of the past century, concerning tho populousni'ss, magnificence and fertility of Chi na, nnd the civilization and enlightened condi lion of the inhabitants. ‘'Recent travellers, 1 tiavs >he Editor, “found vast deserts as they itp'pvonchod tho capital, which sqrroundod it un all sides; and that the wealth, resources and population of China have been ridiculously in -unified. The date of tho foundation of tho Celestial Empire, which tlte Chinese pretend h.ts existed for ninety-seven millions of years, nnd which even Voltaire states at five thousand years before Christ, scarcely reaches the fifth ■coutury before tho coming of our Saviour.” Washington Irving, Author of the Sketch Book, iVe.—He is a Very well dressed, good humored louking man; if not haudsome, at loust very prepossessing in appearance; though his comuunance bus uot that intellectual ex pression which his writings would lead one expect, Tlte most remarkable feature is bis eye; it is large and full, with a very soft drea my expression—a look of indoltnjfrepose in it, which strikes one It first sight very forcibly.— I scanned it, and fancied that Mr. Irving could never bo nccused of early risiug; and I have suspected that h : admired Gray’s description . of Paradise, “to lio on a sofa apt! read new no vels." But with'all this, he possesses a keen perception of the ludicrous, and if any object of phrase presents itself winch excites his feel ing, his eye lights up with an astonishing brilli ancy: tha dreamy, dozing look gives way to an expression of wit aild humor, of talont and irrcsistiblo mirth—it is not ill-naturod enough for satire,—yrhich makes doe ready to laugh with him.—London paper. New Surgical Instrument.—M. Delau, jun. lately presented to the French Academy an ins rument, by which he states that ho can, no cording to circumstances, either produce ii tha internal oar, currents of air, calculated in a great many cases to remove deafness, or t ces sion in tho interior of that cavity a vacjum, which in other cases is no t less useful.
