On the banks of the Albany River, which falls into Hudson’s Bay, there is, among others, a small colony settled, which is mostly made up of emigrants from the Highlands of Scotland. Though the’soil of the valleys contiguous to the river is exceedingly rich and fertile, yet the win ter being so long and severe, these people do not labour too incessantly in agricul- j hind the short rib, which soon terminated his existence.

They shaped their course toward a small stream, which descends from the mountains to the N.

The cave was deep, hut there was abundance of room in the further end, where Mack, with his sharp sJcenc-dhu now commenced the work of death. He was scarcely well begun, when Donald perceived a monstrous wild boar advanc ing upon him, roaring and grinding his tusks, while the fire of rage gleamed from his eyes. Donald said not a word for fear of alarming his friend ; besides, the sa vage was so haul upon him ere ever he was aware, he scarcely had time for arn 7 thing ; so setting himself firm and cocking his gun, he took his aim; but, that the shot might prove the mot e certain death, lie suffered the boar to come within a few paces of him before he ventured to firfc ; he at last drew the fatal trigger, expecting to blow out his eves, brains and all.— Merciful heaven !—the gun missed fire, or flashed in the pan, I am not sure which. There was uo time to lose—Donald dash ed the piece in the animal’s face, turned his back, and fled with precipitation.— The boar pursued him only for a short j space, for having heard the cries of his suffering young ones as he passed the mouth of the den, he hasted back to their rescue. Most men would have given up all for lost—It was not so with Donald— Mack’s life was at stake. As soon as lie observe l the monster return from pursu ing him, Donald faced about, and pursued him in his turn ; but having, before this, from the horror of being all torn to pieces, run rather too far without looking back, the boar had by that oversight got consi derably ahead of him—Donald strained every nerve—uttered some piercing cries —and even for all his haste did not forget to imp. ore assistance from Heaven. His prayer was short, but pithy 7 —“ O Lord ! puir Mack ! puir Mack !” said Donald in a loud voice, while the tears gushed from his eyes. In spite of all his efforts, the enraged animal reached the mouth of die den before him, and entered !—It was, however*; too narrow for him to walk in on all-fours ; he was obliged to drag himself in as Mack had done before; and, of course, his hind feet lost their hold of the ground. At this important crisis Donald overtook him—laid hold of his large, long tail—wrapped it around both his hands— set his feet to the hanks, and held back in the utmost desperation. Mack, who was all unconscious of what was going on above ground, wondered what way lie came to be involved in utter darkness in a mojnent. He waited a lit tle while, thinking that Donald was only playing a trick upon him, but the most profound obscurity still continuing, he at length bawled out, “ Tonald, man, Tonald —phat is it that’ll ay pe stopping te light 1” Donald was too much engaged, and too breathless, to think of making any reply to Mack’s impertinent question, till the latter, having waited in vain a considera ble time for an answer, repeated it in a louder cry. Donald’s famous laconic an swer, which perhaps never was, nor ever will he equalled, has often been heard of —“ Tonald, man, Tonald—I say phat is it that’ll ay pe stopping te light V' bellow ed Mack—“ Should te tail preak, you’ll fin’ tat,” said Donald. Donald continued the struggle, and soon began to entertain hopes of ultimate success. When the boar pulled to get in, Donald held back ; aud when he strug gled to get back, again, Donald sethis shoulder to his large buttocks and pushed him in : and in this position he kept him, until he gqt an opportunity of giving him some deadly stabs with his skenc-dhu be- cold /” A Good Wife.—A preacher in a fune ral sermon on a lady, after summing up her good qualities added, “that she always reached her husband his hat, when he called for it, without muttering.” A wife.—In the new piece of Love and Reason, old General Dorian is per suading Adjutant Vincent to marry— “ She is an angel,” says the General; “ I don’t want an angel—I should not know what to do with an angel,” was the reply of the single hearted Adjutant. “ She is all sweetness,” rejoins the General ; “ So is a bee-hive (answers Vincent) but it does not follow that 1 should like to.thrust my head into it.” A great SiroJce.—A captain of a tra ding vessel, passing through John street, ‘half seas-over’ poped his head into a tail or’s work shop, exclaiming, ‘ What’s o’ clock, my hearty V The night of the shears, who was a bit of a wag, lifting up his sleeve board and giving the fellow a good whack on his nob, bawled out, ‘It’s just struck one !’ The son of Neptune think ing it might be a repeater, quietly walked off. The late Rev. John Murray, was dis tinguished for the poigancy of his wit, and talent for repartee. On a certain time, when meeting his fiiends to celebrate some festive accusation, and the joys of Bacchus were restoried to, as a hightner of social merriment, he was accosted with, “ Mr. Murray, don’t you drink 1” ,Di ink !’ retorted he, ‘ yes that I do—I drink like a beast.” He yet refrained from helping himself over liberally to the use of the bottle, (as every one else present did) which one of his companions remarking observed. “ Why Mr. Murray, how ab sent you are—I thought you said, you drank like a beast.” ‘And so I do,’ re joined the preacher ‘ for a beast, when lie has drank enough, desists from drinking ; an'd so have I.’—Fall River Monitor.

Wait & Son, BOSTON, Publish monthly, a Periodical Work entitled the JOURNAL OF EDUCATION. PROSPECTUS. T HE spirit of inquiry, which has of late years extended to every thing-connected with human improvement, has been directed with pe culiar earnestness to the subject of education. In our own country, the basis of whose institu tions is felt to be intelligence and virtue, this topic has been regarded as one of no ordinary interest, and has excited a zeal and an activity worthy of its importance. By judicious endeavors to adapt the character of instruction to the progressive requirements of the public mind, much lias been done to continue and accelerate the career of improvement. These very efforts, however, and this success, have produced the conviction that much remains to be done. A periodical work, devoted exclusively to edu cation, would seem likely to be of peculiar ser vice at the present day, when an interest in this subject is so deeply aud extensively felt. At no period have opportunity and disposition for the extensive interchange and diffusion of thought been so favorably combined. Science and Liter ature have their respective publications, issuing at regular intervals from the press, and contri butin' 7 incalculably to the dissemination of know ledge and of taste. But education, a subject of the highest practical importance to every school, every family, and every individual in the com munity, remains unprovided with one of those popular and useful vehicles of information. A minute detail of the advantages which may be expected to result from a periodical work, such as is now proposed, we think unnecessary With the success of other publications of the same class before us, we feel abundant encouragement to proceed in our undertaking. A leading object of the Journal will be to fur nish a record of facts, embiacing whatever infor mation the most diligent inquiry can procure, regarding the past and present state of education, in the United States, and in foreign countries. An opportunity will thus be afforded for a fair com parison of the merits of various systems of in struction. The results of actual experiment will be presented ; and the causes of failure, as well as of success, may thus be satisfactorily traced, and be made to suggest valuable improvements. The conductors of the Journal will make it their constant endeavor to aid in diffusing enlarg ed and liberal views of education. Nothing, it seems to us, has more influence in retarding the progress of improvement in the science of instruc tion, than narrow and impartial views of what education should be expected to produce. Intel lectual attainmeats have been too exclusively the object of attention. It is too common a thing to cons der a man well educated, if he has made a proper use of the facilities for the acquisition of learning; though the result may have been ob tained atthe expense of his health, and with much neglect of that moral culture, which is the surest foundation of happiness. In many plans of edu cation, which are in other respects excellent, the fact seems to have been overlooked that man pos sesses an animal, and a moral, as well as an in tellectual constitution. Hence the fatal neglect of the requisite provisions for the developcment of the corporeal system, Si the confirmation and improvement of health, the only foundation of mental as well as bodily power. The moral de partment of education has too commonly been restricted to an occasional word of parental ap probation or reproof; or, at the best, to efforts limited by the sphere of domestic life. The natu ral consequence of the restrictions thus unjustly laid on education, is, that we often find, in the same individual a learned head, but a debilitated body, and a neglected heart. Education should, we think, be regarded as the means of fitting man for the discharge of all his duties : it should pro duce vigorous and hardy bodies, trained to pow erful action, and inured to privation and fatigue ; hearts formed to all that is pure and noble in moral principle ; and minds prepared for effi cient exertion in whatever may be their depart ment in the great business of accomplishing the purposes of human existence. Under these im pressions, we shall give to physical education that proportion of our attention which seems due to its importance. Moral education we shall consi der as embracing whatever is to form the habits and stamp the character. The influence of ex ample in the sphere of daily intercourse, wc re gard as the most powerful instrument in the for mation of moral habits In no light do we con template the progress of education with more satisfaction, than when we view it as elevating and purifying the gieat body of the community, and thus affording to the attentive and reflecting parent, the pleasing assurance, that his efforts with his children at home, will not be counter acted by contaminating example abroad. Par ticular attention will be paid to domestic education, or that which emanates from parental ami family influence ; nor shall wc neglect personal educa tion, or that which consists in the voluntary for mation of individual character. The subject of female education is one which was deemed unspeakably important. We have no hesitation in expressing our conviction that it has not yet received the consideration which it merits. Whatever concerns the culture of the female mind, extends ultimately to the formation of all minds, at that early and snsceptible period when maternal influence is forming the impres sions which eventually terminate in mental and moral habits. But the theme is too full of impor tant and interesting topics to admit of discussion in a prospectus. There is no department of our labours, from which we anticipate a higher grati fication, than onr endeavors to aid the instruc tion of the female sex. Our efforts shall be directed chiefly to early and elementary education, because it is, in our view, more important than that of any other pe riod or department. At the same time, we shall not omit the higher branches of science and lit erature, nor the training preparatory to profes sional pursuits. In particular branches of in struction, we have no favorite theories to obtrude. To what is of old standing, we have no hostility arising merely from its being old. Novelty we shall always regard as an indifferent circum stance, rather than a recommendation. But ex planatory, practical instruction, under whatever name it may appear, we shall be happy all times to aid with our best exertions. As our pages are to be devoted exclusively to the cause of education throughout our country, an earnest and cordial invitation is given to per sons in every quarter, who take an interest in our labours, to assist us by the communication of useful and interesting matters.

T HIS Medicine lias acquired a very extend ed and established celebrity both in Jl 0i pital and Private practice, which its efficacy alone has supported for these seven years past. As a spring or fall purifier it has given new constitutions to thousands, it is by its operation on the Blood that such surprising cures have been performed in numerous diseases. The effect of this medicine is such as not to in. terrupt either business or pleasure, and require- only the common restraint of moderation in diet It is conveyed by the circulating fluids, and cor rects their tendencies to all those diseases nliicl originate in vitiated blood, diseased liver, or de praved appetitP.

LIVERPOOL, (eng.) Sei*t. 1823. The Vegetable Syrup, called Swaim’s Pana cea, prepared by Mr. Swaim, of Philadelphia, has recently been introduced here by Dr. Price, from the United States of America, where it is now extensively used in the treatment of a varie ty of Chronic Diseases.

The diseases in which Ibis Medicine has hecn particularly useful, are those arising from con stitutional causes—as in the various forms of Scrofula, whether affecting the bom s. joints, or soft parts; and in cases, where a disposition to this disease is manifested by debility only, it operates as a preventive to the local disease liy its beneficial effects on the constitution. !• ~ equally efficacious in mercurial disease, and ia the secondary forms <>f Sypilis, and haslnfelv been gi 7r cn with marked success in chronic dis eases of the Liver, which had resisted the careful exhibition of mercury It has, likewise, very ri ccntiy been administered with decided advan'- ageby one of the most distinguished Surgeons i > London, in a case u hich had entirely destroyed the right eye of the patient, and a great portio vj" of the side of the face.
