THE MUSEUM. From the Christian Spectator. HYMN. iamb has ft joy unknown in heaven, The new-born joy of sins forgiven! Tears of such pure and deep delight, Y Angels! never dimm’d your sight. Ye saw of old, on chaos rise The beauteous pillars of the skies: Ye knew where Morn, exulting, springs, And Evening folds her drooping wings; Bright heralds of th’ Eternal Will, Abroad his his errands ye fulfil-, Or thron’d in floods of beamy day, Symphonious, in hia presence pla;. Loud is the song—the heavenly plain Is shaken with the choral strain— And dying echoes, floating far, I) raw ornsick from each chiming star. But I amid ypur quires shall shine, And all your know ledge shall be mine: Ye on your harps must learn to hear A secret chord that mine will bear. From Stillman’s Journal of Science and artr. CASIS OF DFLIKIUK. f'ncts illustrative of the Powers dnil Operation* of ike Human Mind in .1 Diseased State tame years ngo a farmer of fan charac ter, who resided in an interior town ni Ne\v-Eiinland, sold his farm, wit!) an inter,-’ lion of utii chasing another in a different town. liU mind wan naturally otu niei anciioly cast. Shortly after the aaie of his J’.irin, he was induced to believe that he had sold it for less that, its value. This persuasion brought on dissatisfaction and’ evidently a considerable degree of melan choly. In this situation,one uftns neigh bours engaged him to enclose a lot of land, with a post ami rad fence, which he was to commence making the np.vt day. At the time appointed lie went into the field, and begin with a beetle and wedges to split the timber out of wine!) the posts and rails were to be prepared. Ori tiuishiog his day’s work, he put Ins beetle and wedges into a hollow tree, auu went home. Two tis his sons had been at work through the day in a distant part of the same field. On his return he di.ected them to get up early the neat morning, to assist him in making Q’ ‘ © the fence. In the course of the evening lie became delirious, and continued in this situation several years ; when his mental powers were suddenly restored The first question which lie asked after the return of his reason, was whether his sons had brought in the beetle and wedges. He ap peared.to he wholly uncouscious us the time that itad elapsed from the commencement of his delirium. His sons, apprehensive that any explanation might induce a return of his disease, simply replied that they had been unable to find them. He imme diately rose from his bed, went into the field where lie had been at wont a number of years before, and found the wetlgcSj iml the rings of the beetle, where lie had left them, the beetle itself having mouldered away. During his delirium his rntud had not beeu occupied with those nubjects with which it was conversant in health. ->Mrs. Smith, an intelligent lady, belong ing to a respectable family in Ncw-York some years ago undei took a place of fine needlework. She devoted her time to it 1 almost constantly, for a number of days.—, iiefjre she had accomplished it, she became suddenly delirious, in this state, without experiencing any abatement of her disease, she continued for about seven years, when her reason was suddenly restored. One of the first questions she asked after her reason returned, related to her needle work. It is a remarkable fact, that during the loag continuance of her delinum, she said nothing, so far as was recollected, about her needle-work, nor concerning any such subjects as usually occupied her at tention when in health. A iuily in New-England, of a respecta ble family, was for a considerable period subject to paroxysms of delirium. These - aroxysms came on instantaneously, and after continuing an indefinite time, went off as suddenly, leaving her mind perfectly rational. It often happened that when she was engaged in rational and interesting conversation, she would stop short in the midst of it, snd become in a moment entirely delirious, and commence versation on some other subject, not having tne remotest connection with the preceding one, nor would alie advert to }i.at during her delirium. When she be came rational again, she would pursue the s tine conversation in which she had been engaged during the lucid interval,begiuing where aho had left off.—To such a degree was this carried, that she would complete an unfinished story, or seutence, or word. —When her next delirious paroxysm came on, she would continue the conversation wnich she liad been pursuing in her prece ding paroxysm ; so that she appeared as a person migiit.be supposed to be who had 2 souls, each occasionally dormant, and occa sional! V active, and utterly ignoraut of vhat tile other was doing. SEAL HUNTERS. Thfc Salem Gazette of the 4th inst. contains two columns and a half of extracts from the jour, rial of an officer who lud. been on an expedi. t,u for Seal. We have condensed these ex • t-acts for the entertainment of our readers. but ty Advertiser. October 6, 1820— It being the writer’s vatch os deck, he waa aUrmctl on amm three large shales playing under the bey. 8, sometimestlmming themselves nearly out of water, and at others extending themselvs alongside, and sometimes ahead >t the brig—had his fears quieted by the captain who assured him there was uo danger.— 28tli Oct. arrived in Whalemen’s harbour, (New Island, Falkland). —29th, visited a Itiiokery, (as it is called) and found ten acres covered with birds so thickly that it was necessary to clear them away to pass along , they consisted of Penguins, Alba trosses, Hocks and Ducks—the two for mer would not move out of their way— the Rooks eo bold that they endeavoured to steal the men’s caps from their heads— November 3. went with boats to an island opposite ; saw a rookery of grey albatross es, which immediaetly left the inland, leav ing the beach covered with eggs—gave it the name of Egg Harbour.—January 11, 1821,(New S.Shetland) started with boats in pursuit of Seal, landed and destroyed 200—17th, fell in with a rookery of Uhl Wigs, (male seal); these seal gave battle, and made a formidable attack, which inti jnidated the party at first—they recovered from their confusion and in an hour killed 94, about 10 escaped—some of them were between 5 and G feet in length, and weigh ed from 230 to 400 pounds—a few of the party got round a point and killed 52 clap maches (female sea!) and dogs (youogmale seal fivni to two to three years old). — JWtt’ island, April 11, 1821, anchored in Shailop Cove—half the crew went ashore .fter game—returned in the evening with ‘l4 geese. [These geese are of the nature ot tame geese aud coniine themselves to the i.siand.J Mr. Noble, of the Henry, took a dog and caught a pig and two rab bits. [These island are not inhabited by | men, but have animals for their sustenance j—April 12, a party landed in the morn ing and relumed in the evening with 30 igeese—the dog, Growler, hud hunted three hogs—43th, a gang landed in pursuit of game and returned with 53 geese and two lings, one of which weighed 150, pounds— 14tli, the hunters brought in 70 geese and 3 hogs 15th, the hunters returned with 4 hogs2rabbits & 12 geese. Caught 50 clams this day.—l7th, agreed to attack a mock ery oft Seal of the south end of the island On arriving at the cliff over them, found no means to get at them but by lowering the men down about 200 feet, which wa done. The seal, all but 10, escaped into the water. - * - - - The journal contiues from day to day, giving the occurrences—one day while employed in getting things into the boat, a Rook stole the ianip and Hew oil'with it. These birds are very numerous and are great thieves—they fly off with every thing they can carry, and sometimes, as if in mere mischiaf.drop the article into the wa ter. If you kill or wound one of these birds, a flock of \m friends will come and ■ set him up. July 22if, the hunters took 155 geese, 9 hogs, 2 seal, 750 clams. An interesting anecdote is here given of the dug Growler. A small hog had beeu ta ken, but being poor he was put in a pen to tatten. Growler became sociable with him, and they would cal together. When the hog was thought sufficiently tame he was let loose, and Growler and the hog became companions, and always kept together. — They one day went rabbit hunting and Growler caught one, and seeing nobody to take it from him, gave it to his friend the hog wli< made a meal of tt. November 21—(New South Shetland) —caught some ifish much resembling sea bass, ami a curi ously formed fish 20 inches long, the head resembling that of an Alligator,and about 8 inches loug and perfectly white—contain ed no blood. 27ih, killed 19 seal on some rocks, a tut found a bottle containing a let ter from Capt Andrew Macfarlane, of the brig Dragon, of Liverpool, dated Nov. 20, 1820, requesting the seal not to be distur b'd by persons visiting tii<* place, as he claimed the sealing ground by prior right. “ Feb. 22d, 1822—Light winds from W. S. VV. with very warm pleasant weather— crossed over to the main island, and after travelling about three miles over the moun tains, we arrived at one of most lrightful places 1 ever saw ; we had to descend n bout 400 feet nearly perpendicular ; and after we got to the bottom w saw about 1500 seals which were so very wild that we got but about 47 of them. INDIAN TREATIES. We notice in a former paper, that S3GO,- 000 had been appropriated by Cougress, for the purpose of defraying the expenses which might be incurred, in holding treaties with the Creek and Cherokee Indians, with in the limits of Georgia. We have been informed, that the President was applied to by the members from this state, to nomin ate to the Senate Commissioners for hold ing those treaties. That the names of cer tain persons were given to him, and ho promised to lay them before the Senate be fore the adjournment of Congress, as he did not believe it was in his power to ap point in the recess. We have been further informed, that he did not make any nomin ations : and unless we have been very much misinformed, the people of Georgia may . attribute the failure to th e friendly inter ference us Mr. Secretary Calhoun. What right had lie to interfere ? Does Mr. Cal houn believe Georgia is now too large, or growing too rapidly ?,or must he serve some > particular friend at the expense of the i public interest? For the people, ive teu !der him our most greteful acknowledge ments, for tha ■oas tiouble he lias ta ken vpon himself. •V illedgevlile Rec, 11 th inst. Exixvms ttx. ?
