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- liman's Journal of Science mid .trie 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, RALPH EMERSON. Experiments on a valuable randy of fruit, pro duced hr her-a the Spanish Chesnut, itml Ihe Maryland 'Jhinausyiin, in a letter from Itm. Prisi 1 r, P.sij. to the Hon. Surnii't /, Mitrhitl, (Rend before the. Lyceum of Salurat History, al (trio Y-nrk, Oct'r. 15 and commiiaicalcdfor instrtion in this Journal.) 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 TMF.
