Let us invent a schome j jecti haa jt boop .^covered that its occupa- by which, at once, wo may repel ennui; and acquire and augment pleasure. Sen sation is received according to tiiu capabili ty of our organs ; our organs may be al most incredibly improved by practice ; in tense devotion to an object, must therefore present means of deriving more numerous and keener pleasures from that object— Hence, an author, long employed on a work, has received a quantity of pleasure, which no reader can ever feel; and hence one- reader receives a quantity of pleasure, un- fiA by another. Ill the progress of any | particular pursuit, there are a hundred de licious sensations, which are too intellec tual, to be embodied into language. Eve ry artist knows what uncommon combina tions his meditations produce ; and though some too imperfect, or too subtle, resist his powers of displaying to tho world, yet bo tion is another name for hnppincss; for this occupation is a means of escaping from in- j congruous sonant ions. It secures us from| tho dreadful nnd dark vacuity of soul, as j well as from tho terrible whirlwind of ideos; | I reason itself is a passion, but a passion ful* of serenity. It is observed of those who liavp devoted themselves to an individual object, thill its importance is incredibly enlarged to their sensations. Intense attention mngnifies like a microscope, but it is possible to apolo gize for their apparent extravagance, from the consideration that they really observe excellencies not perceived by other* of su perior application. That this passion lias been carried to a curious violence of affec tion, literary history affords namorous in- smstj PORT OF SAVANNAH. stances. Richardson the p.i inter, a lively tween the thought that first gave rise to | entlm^inst, says “Painting is the utmost the design, nnd each one which appears in ; °* human power in the cninmunica- it, there are innumerable intermediate ev j ti°n of ideas. History begins, poetry raises anescences of sensations (so to express my-! higher, sculpture goes yet. forth* r, but paint- self) which no man felt but himself. These in £ completes nnd perfects.” He proceeds are plensures, which are in number, nc- j hy acquainting the world, how “ painting cording to the intenseness of his faculties, can reform our manners, increase our opu* and the qunntity of his labor.

It does at first appear, that an astronomer wrapt in abstraction, while be gazes on the move ment of a planet, must feel a more exquistito delight, than the former who is conducting quires not only the same erudition, genius, imagination, taste, die. necessary for a po- - et, a pointer, or n philosopher, but the his torian must also have some peculiar quali fications. I)r. Johnson, however, said, “groat abilities are not requisite in an his torian ; for in historical composition, all the greatest powers of the human mind arc qui escent*.” H cl vet i us, an enthusiast in the sume Andrew Guard was, ut that time, em ployed hy Mr. Hazleton, at St. Augustine, or thereabouts. In consequence of this great transaction, Messrs. Sis.-oy, Lee, and Hale, were suspended from the pilotage!! the two former for becoming securities, and the latter for performing his duty !!! Alter such treatment and decisions of the Board of Pilotage, we considered ourselves authorized to give up our commissions as Pilots for the Port of Savannah, and seek employment, just ice nnd respect, elsewhere —at the same time we are hold to say, that we view their conduct with feelings of in dignity. In conclusion, we consider such measures a grievance, which should not for a moment he tolerated, or even countenanc ed by an enlightened community. What right or authority, we would humbly ask, have the tho Board of Commissioners, to suspend three independent and respectable Pilots, who have only exercised the free and inestimable privilege of a citizen ?

To this 1 reply, that the hnp pincss of tlie ploughman and tho merchant, may be as satisfactory as that of tlie as- tioa of Mere nnd tlie arh. Egyptian Cotton.-—The Manchester (Eng.) Guardian, after remarking on the increase oftbe Egyptian Cotton, adds the following as to the quality of the urlicle ;— “ When this article first came hither, tlie lcng’li and fineness of the staple led to tlie indulgence of confident expectation that the quaii’y would be suitable lor the fine spin- nine The general condition of the cotton Was. however, so very bad, arising from Wail! of proper management iu its culture and picking, that the expense and difficulty of sorting and cleansing it, was found a decided objection to its use for any thing but common purposes. Tlie color too, pro bahly owing to tlie aamc cause, is bud— When these objections to it aro removed, it will no doubt be a valuable cotton, and, in our judgment, will serve as an effectual substitute for common Sea-Islands. At present, however, thnre are peculiarities about it whicli diminish its value. The thread spun from it is fibrous and oozy, and on that account luoks coarser than' it ac tually is, and is also weaker than it would he iftiie fibres adhered more closely as in other cottons. Ill blruching a perfect color, Egyptian cotton is found to lose one |>ound in every ten, which is one third more than other cottons lose in the same process; tlie difficulty also of bleaching it is so great, that to make it a good colour costs very ncurly Id per lb. more than other cotton. The yarn mado from it too will not do for dons not. feel, no more affects it, than wluit the eye does not sec. It is thus that tlie mer chant, habituated to his pursuits, can nev er be unhappy, because lie is not the Gen eral of ail army ; for this idea of felicity he has never received.

The thing contained can only he equal to the container; a full glass, is as full, as a full bottle i and a human soul maybe as much satisfied in the lowest of human be ings, as in tlie highest. In this devotion to a particular object, what philosophers have called tlie Associ ating Idea, exists all its activity mid ener gy, and it may be rendered productive of tlie sensations we desire ; for, when attach ed to one particular pursuit, this idea will generally point and conduct our thoughts to it.
