PnOONOSTICS OF THU W batiifji.— Red tluuds in thn West, at sunset especially when they have u tint of purple, portend fine tveuthor. The reason is that the uir, when dry, refracts more icd or heat ntak. •tig rays; and ns dry air is not perfectly transparent, they uro a gain reflected in the horizon. A copper or yellow sutisul generally foretells rum; but us an indicu- lioli of wot weather upproucliiiig, nothing is mure certain than the halo uround the moon, which is produced by the urecjpit- n'ed water; mid the larger the circle the nearer the clouds, and consequently the | more ready to fall. When the swullorvs j lly high, fine weather is to be expected or 1 'cdhtinued; hut when they fly low mid close ^ lo the ground, rain is almost surely ap- : preaching. This is explumed as follows: [ Swallows pursue the flies and gnats, mid ■flies and gnats deliglu in warm strata of air; and as warm uir is lighter, and usually ! in o is ter tillin' cold uir, when tho warm stra- - Ik of’one air arc liighj there is less chance ' of moisture being thrown down from them by tlie mixture of cold uir; but when the warm mid most air is close lo to the ground, it is almost certain that, as (he cold nir loW as can b6 purctmsuil in New Orleans CHARLES E.

F.xlrae sjrfm T. flint's l ectures vj.uy Natural IPsttty. tBCTtlHH I.VI. DECISION OF CHARACTER- I know of no one trait of clmrnder, that I deem so essential to every sort of sqccvts, as menial firmness und decision of purpoto. To iliu lew, who possess it by endowment, and who enlighten, ami guido it by sense ahd liitcriminution, it is llieir good star. It was the destjny and tho long suaid of Napoleon; tho key, by which must of iliesc man, whom history his denominated great, opened the temple of lamp. Jn almosi every dire, wlicro success may not be traced lo accident, it has b«0n the grand secret, by whii lt tho possessor has com manded fortune. The far greater number of our specirs vibiafo in a state of vacillmiltn; nre slow to combiue the elements, upoft which mental decision, may (is, and uro delivered from their suspense, only by circumstances beyond llieir foresight, or control. They tv mu sufficient self reliance, vigor of mind, promptitude and concentration, to faring their thoughts to bonr upon an allMiuiiiyi) in such a way, ns to decide with the lull conviction o( the mind. In view of a complicated subject of va rious aspects and choices, few are capable ot’ separntiiur, classing, airuugmg and combining, so as to bo ablo 10 form, a clear general judg ment in regard to tho whole, by having passed upon the divisions in daiuii, thence, tltey nlo borne ouwurd to their fortunes by the current of circumstances. But for ibis grand, ulfipirn of common destiny, vast numbers wculd live in a continual stale of suplno indecision, mcupuhle, like the schoolmen’s ass between the two butt* dies of hay, of fixing upon any alternative. It happens of coutse, that they who can com mand vigor of purpose, and possess minds caps* ble of n piDinpt decision, have a nuturul superi ority over those mound ilium, and a proportion ate facility of conlrolling evenis to iheir advan. tage. ’But iheso rash and plunging men make mistakes,’ say the cautious, ‘aiul of un ipvulvo themselves in painful dilemmas.’ Tins may be, bul I have seen so imply failures, and so much misery result (torn indecision, that, I confiden tly believe, wu encounter teu difficulties lipm this cause, to one produced by promptness and firmness of purpose. I hrve noted persons of decided character, recklc-ss of the rules ol ptu- deuce and judgment, but hold ptntuvnriug and ufichangcahlu in their purpose. I hardly re. member one of those rash clmracfeis, who did not prosper. Thoiis is the trait, that,commands fortune; and awes, and brings withiu the spill of their superior influence, those that surround them. These uro die men, that, by a native buoyancy, lake the ascendant in society. Tbeib nre the men, to whom the helm is na urully re signed In stumis.
