I tHF. simplified Portable Horse Saw Mill, advertis- . ed in the National Intelligencer, is now improved, and well adapted to the benefit and ease oFthe far mer and mechanic; first on account of the cheapness of its construction, as it has neither crauk or pitman, or spur wheel, cog wheel, balance wheel, trnnnei head, or wallower, and takes only sixteen sticks of timber to compose the frame, exclusive of the gear works, to drive two saws with considerable force, having but little friction on account of the triflinggear works.— Except the carriages, saw frames, and rag wheels, there is hut one wheel for the horses to turn round, with fifteen pegs stuck In the upper part of the rim, which operate against two arras let through a long beam extending over the centre of tbo wheel and quite across the mill, and there ere only two other arms let through this beam, one on each side, and at- tached to the top of each saw frame, balancing each other. As the lone beam is hung on gudgeons and boxes at eacb end, and os ittakes no power, in aman- ner, to raise up either of the saws, being on a balance, if each gate weighed 1000 pounds,» man could work them up and down with ease with one hand. That being operated by this mode of balwicing, the whole power of the team is applied in thrusting the saws thro the wood, so that a continued stream of saw-dust, if flying from either one saw or the «qual to the rotary saw and much better adapted for sawing large timber. To this cheap constructed Mill* I have now- added two pumps for pumping of water, and two cut- ■ ig knives for cutting d the washing ofclc...^-, .a . er, aud many oflicr things may, with ease be added to It with little cost, such as carding, spinning, pick.ng machines. Ac. It is sunnosed that a Saw Mill built this pi. 600 to 1000 feet of j. , with four horses, fbus, by a trifling expense, every fanner and mechanic can oe supplied with many con veniences at their door to xave labor. Patent rights can be had by applying to the subscriber, at Walker s IIotcL Washington City. t * t . tar !’(^* t ^£ , Q^g i bc plank, and Thus, by a l attended to by July 93—38 ISAAC Extract from “Sir Jonah Barrington's Per• sonal Sketches of his own times." In the year 1800, a laborer dwelling ne.tr town of Athy, county Kildare, where i of my family still reside, was walking with his comrade up the banks of the Banow to the farm of Mr. Richardson, on whose mea dows they were employed to mow; each in tho usual Irish way having his scythe loosely wag ging over his shoulders, and lazily lounging close to the bank of the river, they espied a salmon parily hid under the bank. It the na ture of this fish, that, when his head is con cealed, he fancies uo one.can see his tnil— (ihere are many wiseacres, besides the salmon, of the same way of thinking.) On the present occasion the body of the fish was seen. “Oh Ned—Ned dear!” said one of the mowers, “look at that big fellow there: is’nt it a pity we In’nt no spear!" "May be," said Ned, “we could bo after piking the lad with the scythe handle." “True for you!” said Dennis: “the spike of your handle is longor nor mine; give the fel low a dig with it at any rate.” “Ay, will I,” returned the other; “I*JI give the lad a prod he'll never forget any how.” Tho pike and their sport was all they thought of; but tbo blvde of the scythe, which hung over Ned’s shoulders, never came inio the contemplation of them. Ned cautiously looked over the bank; the unconscious salmon lay snug, little imagining the conspiracy that had been formed against his taiL “Now hit tho lad smart!" said Donnis: “thore now—there! raise your first;—now you have the boy! now Ned—success!" Ned struck ut the salmuu with all his might and main, and that was not trifling. But whe-. tbor “the Boy” was piked or not nover ap peared; for poor Ned, bending bis neck a& he struck at the salmon, placed the vortebrs in the most convenient position for unfurnishing his shoulders; and his head camo tumbling splash into the Barrow, to the utter astonish ment of his comrndo, who could not conceive how it coulcl drop off so suddenly. But the next moment he had the satisfaction of seeing tho head attended by one of his own ears, which had been most dexterously sliced off, by fiis comrade. The head and ear rolled down tho rivor, in company, and wero picked up with extreme horror at the mill dam, near Mr. Richardson's by one of tho miller’s men. “Who the devil does this hoad belong to !” exclaimed the miller. “Whoever owned it," said tho man “had three ears at any rate.” ., A search being now made, Ned's headless body was discovered lying half over tho br-nk, and Dennis in a swoon, through fr'ght aud losj of blood, was found recuinbcut by its s^e. Donnis, when brought to himself, (which p-ocess was effected by whiskey) re cited tlte whole udvanture.—^They tied up tho head; tho body was attended by a numerous assemblage of Nod's countrymen to tho grave; ami the habit of carrying scythos caielessly very much declined.” Sir Jonah aid his lady, one morning tra velling in the district where .his brother resid ed determined to give h in a surprise of an early visit. They arrive, as is most probable, on the morning that ho had just r sen upon iho ruins of a debauch, and had much difficulty in restoring the bacchanhalinns to their walkin ' tt'tisus. In two instances it appears 10 have been more easy to wake than to rouse the guests, . “All boine in. due order, we at length awa kened Joe Kelly and Peter Alley, hi* neigh bour—they hod slept soundly, though with no other pillow than the wall; and ray brother announced breakfast with t view hollo,i! The twain immediately starle.l, aud roared in unison with their host most tremendously 1 It was, however in a very different tone from the view holloa,—and perpetuated much long er. “Come boys," says French, giving Joe a pull—“coino.” “Oh, murder! says Joe, “I can’t '."—“Mur der!—Murder!" echoed Peter,—French pull ed them again' upon which they roared the more, still retaining their places. I have in my life time laughed till I nearly became spasmodic; but never wero my risible musdos put to greater tension than upon this occasion. The wall, as I said before, had only that day received a coat of mortar, and was of courso quite soft and yielding, when Joe and Peter thought proper to make it their pillow; it was nevertheless setting fast from tho heat and lights of an eighteen hours’ ca rousal; and, in tho morning when my brother awakonod his- guests the mortar had com pletely set, and their hair boing tho thing roost calculated to amalgamate therewith, tho entire of Joe's stock, together with his queue, and half his head was thoroughly and irrevocably bedded in tho greedy and now marble cement, so that if determined to move, lie must havo tho wall along with him, for separate it would not. One side of Petor’s head was in the same state of imprisonment. Nobody was a* bio to assist thorn, and there they both stuck fast, A consultation was now held on this pitiful caso, which I maliciously endeavored to pro long as much as I could, and which was, in fact, every now and thon interrupted by a roar front Peter or Joo, as they mado fresh efforts to rise. At length it was proposed by Dan Ty- ron to send lor tho stono-cutter, and got him to cut them out of tho wall with a chisel. I was literally unable to speak two sentences for laughing. Tho old woman in. the mean while tried to soften the obdurate wall with melted butter and new wilkr-but in vain, t pumps for pumping of water, ting knives for cuttinsstraw; and the grinding of grain, and the washin^of clothes, are such os machines, &c. It is supposed that- — . w. , — —„ — on this plan, will saw, in one, with two horses, from r j JB ^2 length it was proposed by Dan Ty- * ■ and double that quantity - - — 1 —- related, the school story how Hannibal had worked through the Alps with hot vinegar aud hot iron;—this experiment likewise was made, but Hannibal’s solvent had no better success than tho old crone’s.—Peter, being of more passionate nature, grew ultimately quite outrageous; he roared, gnashed his teeth, and swore vengeance against the mason; but as he was only held by one side, a though at last struck him; ho asked for two knives, which being brought, ho whetted one against tho other, and introduced the blades close o his skull, sawed away at cross corners 'ill ho was liberated, with tha loss only of half fiis hair and u pieco of his scalp, which he h id sliced offi in zeal and haste for h>s l.berty. I uover saw a fellow so extravagantly happy ? Fur was scraped front the crown of a hit to stop the bleeding; his head was duly tied up with an old woman's pr tshcen; and he was soon in a state of convalescence. Our soli citude was now..required sulelv for Joe whose head was too deeply buried to be exhn n ''e l with so much facility. At this moment Bob Casey of Biilyaiiktll, a very celebrated, w g maker, just dropped in, to see win; he could pick up honestly in the way of his profession, or steal in the way of any ih.ng else; and lie immediately undertook to get M , Kelly out of the morter by i very expert but tod’ous process, namely;—clipping with h‘*s scum aud then root ng out w.tli an oyster knife. Ho thus finally succeeded, in less than an hour, in setting Jon once more at liberty, at tho price of his queue, which was totally lost an l at the exposure of his raw uni bleeding occi put.

Wo had, Inst week the painful duty to srato that this distinguished statesraiu had boon seized with uu alarming illuoss, which threa tened the most fatal consoquences. Tho me lancholy intelligence produced a deep sensa tion throuThout tho town, and it was every where received with feelings of profouud re gret. The state of t ie right honorable gentle man’s health was tho general topic of.conver sation during tho day. A hope was indulged, however, that his life was not in such iminent danger as represented in the letter of our pri vate correspondent. The arrival of tho Lou don journals of Monday and Tuesday evening, with the bulletin winch had been issued by tho physicians on Sunday night, destroyed ihc fond hopes which tho friends of Mr. Cunning had indulged of iiis ultimate rucovory to hoalth, and of lais valuable lil'o boing spared to bene fit his country and maukind. About noon, oa that day, a report was very current, that an ex press had reached the Custom house, bringing au account that tho premier had actually ex pired, at tho huur of five on Monday morning. This story, which some mischievous individual mast have invented to doccivo tho public, ob tained general bolief. The first sensation of regret.a; the reported melancholy event hav- . mg subsided, persons began to speculate as to who would be :M . Canning's successor iu tho ministry. It was soan discovered, however, that the report was a gross fabrication; and tho arrival of the event ig papers brought me in telligence, that he wis still alive, but without any chance of recovery. The mail was sur rounded on us arrival, by persons eager to .’-s- ceruiu the nows; and all public r.ioms lvcro thronged with gemiemen; so great was.thl in terest taken by »iiu inhabitants ot L vori o ri in the fate ol Mr. Canning. The public mind' was kept in a state of altorn-itc hope uml fear during die whole of Wednesday. On Thurs day afternoon the melancholy foreboding* of the public were realized by tho arrival of the London stage coaches, bringing copies of the second edition of the moruiug papers, which contained tho sad tidiugs of the death of the greatest statesman of modern timvs.— The lamentable intelligence spread withsra- pidity throughout tiio town, dud excited mo liveliest regret among all classes of lira inliabt- • tants. Tira mail was surrounded, ns on :he preceding; and the news rooms wero m>e crowded than on any occasion within oar re membrance. Mr. Canning is no more, Alas! little did we expect, when, oa Monday last, wo announ ced the alarming tlluess of ibis distinguished statesman, that wo should, in one short week, have to perform the melancholy task of record- ing the termination of his earthly career. But the bright and glorious spirit which was the admiration of England and of tho world is quenched itrfleath; and tho lips on whose ac cents our fellow townsmen have often hung with dolight, aud. which for thirty long years commanded the applause of a listening senate, aro bow sealed in oterual silence. * * * A celebrated orator bos well and eloquent ly observed, that “it seldom happens that great men reap during their lives, tho full harvest of all their toils. Contontion, passions interpose; and tho complete operation of a system is not always seen, is scldomcr acknowedged, while the author of it is an object of rivafiy and enyy.’* Mr. Canning had often occasion to feel tho force of this sentiment. Iiis enemies have at tempted to docry his foreign policy; and have pursued him with a ferocity and bittertrau «>f feeling unexampled in party contentions. He had the satisfaction of knowing, however, that his policy was approved by the vast majority of bis follow countrymen, and by ihe generous and tho good throughout the world.
