OLD BACHELOR' KOI! SALE.
[fro*1 the Psrtlani .built ]
Mr. rrini«r-ln tonir P'rt* of our country
the MlM.ti.Mi of the public hn. been call.;, to
tlir aubject of Old Bachelors. In Mnaoun lari
rear, I think a law »r. pa>«e.l, «l !*»■' ‘I
Lunoted, I" exclude Old Bachelors front hold-
ins any public office . and aliill has lately been
broueht before the I^(tl»l*tur# of Maryland, btrt
I know not what has bwn the result ot it, tore-
vy a j*ersonal tai upon this class ot ritiren«,Rnd
thereby as 1 iuppose, drive them to matrimony.
How far auch measure* could be productive
->f public good,I am not at the present prepared
t» <ay. 1 think at leaft, that justice would re
tire tome distinction between those who are
fiuchelor* from nrctmity and those who are
Bachelors from ehoice. It i« not my to
enter at large into the merit* of the question ,
I have made these observations merely by way
Of prefaca to a littlrfscroll lately picked up in
this town, in rather a mutilated state, which, us
far as It could be read, runs thus
I dreamed n drenm in lh« iridsf of my 'lumbers.
Also, ns fnst as I dream *1, it was coined to num-
My thought* run along in «>cb beautiful metre
I'm sure I ne'er saw any portry snreeler.
It seem'd that a law bad been rreen.lv made.
That a tax on old llsrlielors' pates should lie laid
And io order to make them all willing to marry
Them was as l--gr as a man could well can)
The Bachelors grumbled and said lwere no use
'Twas horrid injustice and horrid abu«e,
And declar'd that In save tl.cir own heart s blood
from spilling,
Ofsncli a vile lax lin y would ne'er paya shilling.
But the Rulers determin'd their scheme to pursue,
So they set alt the Bachelor* up at vendue.
A crier sen? sent through the town to and fro,
To rattle his liell and his trumpet to blow,
And to hand out al all lie might meet on the wr.y,
‘I Ho ! forty Bachelor, sold here to day.’’
And presently all the Old Maids in the town,
Each one in iter very best bonnet and gown,
From thirty to sixty, fair, plain, red,and pnlc,
Ol" every description, all flock'd to the sain.
The auctioneer then in his Uibor began,
And call d nut aloud, as lie held up a mar,
"How much lorn Bachelor.’-who wants to buy’'
In a twinlt etery maiden responded—“ I—1."
In short, at a hugely extravagant price,
The Bachelors all were sold off in a trice,
And forty Old Maidens, some younger, some
older,
Each lugg d an Old Bachelor home on her
(boulder,
WAjntsnTos, Feb. 8!.
An obliging correspondent at Annapo-
lie haw forwarded u» the following copy
of a bill reported in the Legislature by
Mr. J. L. Millard—Ou examining the
detail* of the bill, it will be found that
the funds arietng from the tax arc to be
»ery properly appropriated.—The fe
male* generally, our correspondent sug
gest!, ought to give a vole of thanks to
a gentleman ol such merits as Mr. M.—
He also expresses a hope tiiat the Le
gislatures of the different states will at
tend particularly to the provisions ot Mr.
Millard’* bill. The motive of the bill u
doubtless excellent, though we have
been m the habit of believing that so
delicate a concern as matrimony should
■ot be “ embarrateeu by too much re
gulation —[A'at. ht.
Jfa act to frrovMtr (Ac happiness of the people,
and to inereasr the strength and ysstcer of
the state.
Whereas the institution of Matrimony
ib undeniably the most important means,
as well for securiog individual happi
ness in this life, as of promoting the
strength and power of a state, by the re
gular and more rapid increase of popu
lation, and yet in the pride and luxurious
habits of the citizens of this state, an im
proper degree of hesitation seems to pre
vail with the male citizens thereof, to
enter into the state ot matrimony, either
from a false notion of the necessity of a
large estate to maintain a family with
respectability, or from the want of that
reverence tor the fair sex which the vir
tues of the women.cf Maryland ought to
inspire ; whereas it is deemed prudent to
affix some mark of disapprobation, upon
thosb who negligently or wilfully decline
entering into this happy state of Matri
mony : therefore,
lie it enacted by the General Assembly
nf Maryland, That from and after the
first day of May next, a tax of twenty
cents upon every hundred dollars of as
sessable property shall be imposed upon
each single man, between and
years of age, being a citizen of this slate,
and residing therein, which shall be le-
r J sd uiii/uaily by the levy courts of the
^■everal counu-is.and cplkjged by the col
lectqn^^Lhir county, ta^^^acli county
raspcoqely, in the %am^^ianuer that
the county tbities af? effected ; and
that the prodeod* ohsuch’^g be kept by
tbe said levy court, as a separate and
distinct fund, for tbe support and main
tenancc of female orphans, in the several
counties respectively.
Sec. 2. And be it further enacted by the
General Assembly vf Maryland, That the
levy courts of tbe several counties in
this state, rospectirely, shall take the no
cessary measures at tbe levying of tbe
next county levy, for making accurate
lists of each unmarried man, between
the age of and years, m afore
said, and for tbe levying and collecting
the said tax, herein before imposed ; and
■Iso for the distribution thereof in such
prudent and equitable manner as to them
shall seem proper, for tbe maintainance
and support of the poor female orphans
in their several and respective counties.
Bitratts from So. 7. (for the last month) pf Sit-

DIVINING KOI).
On tbe Dirioing Rod, with reference to tbe
use made of it in exploring for Springs of
Water—in a Utter to the Editor, dated
Norfulk, (Cone.) Oct. ii, 1820.
Dx.»a Sir—I an highly pleased with
your Journal of Science ; and doubt not
of its being at once a source of instruc
tion, and an honor to our country.
Permit me to suggest the propriety
%f inserting an article, embodying a tuf
ficient number oftveil authenticated facts
en tba use of " mining,” in discovering
fountains of water under ground, to put
their utility beyond a doubt. 1 presume
that yourself, or some of your corres-
poodsnts, art already in possession of
and cojIJ easily furnisli tlic one of llicsc examples of the preenrions-
ie-->■('human fortune and fvhciiy in the
-’such f.i<
article.
I'or myself, I was totally sceptical of
their efficacy, till convinced hy my own
sense*.
My class mate, the f!ev. Mr. Steele,
of liloomlield, (N. V.) called on me a
lew weeks ago, and, in conversation on
the subject, informed me that the rods
would " work” in his hands. We made
the experiment. A twig of the peach
was employed for the purpose. It was
at once manifest that it bent, and often
willied down from an elevation of 45 deg.
to a perpendicular, over particular spots;
and when we bad pa«sed them, it as
sumed its former elevation. At one spot
in particular, the effect was very strik
ing, and he at once said there must be a
very large current of water passing un
der that place, or it must be very near
the surface—I informed him that u large
perennial spring issued at the distance of
perhaps lifty rods, and requested him to
trace the current, without informing him
of the direction of the spring, lie did
so, and it led him. in nearly a direct line,
to the spring, which was so situated as to
prevent his discovering it till within oue
or two roils of its mouth. The mode of
his tracing it resembled that ot a dog on
his master's track, crossing back and
forth, and he proceeded with as littla
hesitation. The result, however inex
plicable, removed all my doubts. It
was in vain for me to reply against the
evidence of my *en*es, by saying, lion
can this be ? and why should not these
rods operate in the hand* of one a* well
as another ?
On a journey 1 have since taken to Ihe
south east part of New Hampshire, I was
pleased to learn the practical use which
has been made of these rods in that re
gion, for a year or two past, in fixing on
the heat places for v ells. I was informed,
bv good authority, of a man in that vicini
ty, who could not oqly designate the best
spot, but could tell how many feet it
would be needful to dig to find water ;
and that he had frequently been employ
ed for this purpose, without having tail
ed in a single instance. I will recite
one case out of a number which were
told me. A man who had dug in vain
for a good well near hi* hou»e, request
ed his advice. On experiment of these
rods, the best plan* wa* found to be di
rectly under a favorite shade tree in
fr„„, u f the tease, and tfcrrr the proprie
tnr n--« ...nroH he would Sml abundance
of water at a moderate depths But on
readier, he rrax !
tree, and concluded it would answer as
well to dig pretty near it. He dug, and
after sinking the shaft much deeper than
had been directed, abandoned it in des
pair. He soon complained of hi* disap
pointinent “ Did you then dig io the pre
cise spot I told you ?” “ I dug r.s near as
I roolj without iujuring the tree.” “ (io
home and dig up thdt tree and if you do
not find water at the *perified depth, I
will defray the expense.” He did *o ;
and obtained an excellent well at the giv
en depth.
As to the depth, it occurred to me at
once, when seeing the operation of the
rod* in the hands of Mr. Steele, that it
might be easily ascertained, by taking
the angle they made at a few feet from
the spot where they became directly ver
tical ; and this, I conclude, is the mode
of ascertaining it, though 1 was not infor
med.
Yours, with respect,

Flushing, Oct. 14, 1020.
Dz.vk ?!R—Knowing the interest you
lake in the various phenomena of nature,
1 wish to call your attention to one of its
most curioos operations, the production
>f new varieties in the vegetable king
dom—1 herewith send you a specimen
of a new and valuable chesnut, accident
ly produced in the following manner :—
About the year 1780, the large Spanish
chesnut was first imported into this coun
try. I planted some of the nuts, and ob
tained bearing trees—beneath one of
which, I had planted the fagus pumtlaor
chinquapin of the Southern States, which
produce fruit when not more than two
i'eet in height. The farina of the blos
soms of the large Spanish chesnut fell on
the stiles ofthe llowcrsof the little chin
quapin, whose fruit, when ripe, I plant
ed, nndjfe the spring when they came
up, l nRrved several of the plants had
leaves resembling the Spanish chesnut*
—those plants far outgrew the others ;
and have produced a new fruit, partak
ing of the chinquapin in its abundant pro
lificacy, and of the Spanish chesnut in
the improved si/e of its fruit, which is
larger than the common American ches
nut. The quality of the fruit you will
be able to judge of by those I send you.
This is a satisfactory evidence of the
improvement that may be made by mix
ing tbe different kinds of European and
American fruits ; and I have no doubt
great improvement might be made in the
American grape, if the seeds were sown
from vines whose blossoms bad been pre
viously impregnated by the farina of the
best foreign sorts. Vines might be thus
produced, that woulJ stand the cold of
our climate, and combine the prolificacy
of tbe indigenous with the flavor of the
fineut exotic kinds.
I am with respect. Your ob’t serv’t,
middle w alks of civil life, that shake Ihe
confidence and pride of prosperity, and
-erve to rectify the heart in its more stil
ish propensities and secular attachment.
Many such instances occur in Great IIIi-
tain ; few, if any, in the L'mted States.
Hence a strong seuse of the superiority
of our condition, and ofthe gratitude due
to Divine Providence. Hence, also, a
sense of the impropriety of magnifying
own miseries ; of repining at the nlter-
nnlions of greater and less good to which
all nations must he subject, from the un
changeable law of human affairs, arising
out ofthe universal constitution ol human
nature.—Aat. Gazette.
OLD BAILEY—Dec. 18.
William Watford, an clJerly man,
whose dress wa-i (he remnant of better
days, stood at the bar of this court upon
an indictment, charging linn with a rob
bery. The poor man seemed to he no
common thief, and to feel keenly his de
plorable situation. The charge was in
vestigated, and the wretched man, by
incontrovertible eiidence, proved to be
g lilty. He was called upon for his de
fence, when lie delivered the following
narrative, which created a deep sympa
thy and compassion for the wretched
delinquent, who was himself overpow
ered by the recital of his sufferings.—
lie staled that he was some years ago
possessed of friends, fortune and inde
pendence, but by an unfortunate specu
lation he lost all that he possessed. Mi-
property was sold to pay Ins creditor-,
and after some time, in.lead of being
with a beloved wife and seven children
in a mansion elegantly furnished, sur
rounded by friends, wuh all that was ne
cossary to gratify tha mo-t unbounded
desires, he found himself in an obscure
lodging, with his family entirely depen
dent upon him for support. He pro
cured a situation as dork in a mercantile
house, and kept his family as decently as
he could ; hut his wife was unable tn
support the sudden transition from spleii
dor, and she eloped with a man who
professed to be his friend when ho was
ib a state of prosperity.
The house in which he had procured
n situation failed, and he was left with
his children, and without friends, or th.-
means of procuring even sufficient t

WILLIAM TRINCE.
We cannot refrain from adverting, in
this wav, to the Old Baity case, copied
from a late London paper, which will be
foand below. There is a deep pathos
in tbe circumstances, to which few ho-
HW can bo ttrctmblo j and it furnishes
lived (furnished lodgings,) and pledged it
for 3s. This trille purchased food, and
was a temporary relief. Two days e-
tapsrd, and he found himself and chil
dren again in the slate before described
—he took another article, and pledged
that for hall a crown ; and at different
period* continued the same prictice, till
he had pledged property to the amount
of two or three pounds. Ills landlady
discovered the robbery, and lie wa* ap
prehended : but he begged the Court to
bear in mind that he was ml a thief in
principle; nothing hut dire distress wool I
ever have driven him to the cummis
of an unlawful act. lie could not bear to
see his children starving, and lie shuoli
be adding to his offence if he were to it
tempt to deny that with which he stood
charged.
The witnesses were milled up again bv
the Common Serjeant, ,5: interrogated a-
to the truth ofthe prisoner’s statement,
and they confirmed it ; the pawn broker
with whom the property wa* pledged,
stated that he knew the prisoner when
he was in a state of opulence, and kept
his carriage and his country «e it.
The Cam non Serjnanttold the prison* r
he inigh' roly tha‘ his case wool.I meet
the most serious attention, and the great
est lenity would be shewn him (hat w.i-
consistent with justice, when lie should
be brought up to receive bis sentence.
THE SECRET SPRING.
We observe it stated in a Connecticut
paper, that a parent lately read from a
newspaper, the circumstance of a little
girl having denied herselfihe enjoyment
of a luxury, for the purpose of devoting
the amount thus saved to the funds of
some missionary soriaty, and immediate
ly addressed her little sou to know whe
ther he would stiller like privation for a
like purpose : to which he verv ingen
uously answered, that he would, ifslu:
would have it put in the newspaper.
