■ EXAMINATION OF THE SCHOOL
AT BRAINERD.
We had the pleasure of attending the
F annual examination of this interesting
jp 'School on last Wednesday. Our time
f %ill allow us to give our readers but a
very short account of it. It may be prop
er to mention here that the School is com-
| -posed principally small children, and
[' of these the number of what are called fu!i
blood Cherokces we believe is greater than
in any other School in the nation, except
ing, perhaps, the Valley Town School.—
We were much gratified to notice this act,
for we have always been impressed with
the importance of special missionary at
tention to this class.
When we entered the School room the
girls were reading part of the tenth chap
ter of Acts. Nearly all the girls rctid flu-
I ently, and answered promptly to the ques-
1 Hions proposed by t he teacher on the lead-
I ing facts contained in the chapter. Their
m am wers convinced us that they read un'der-
atandinghj. The boys then performed the,
sa no part with equal success. After a prayer
“by the Rev. Mr. Potter, the Scholars were
examined in spelling 8c. reading, in which,
in point of correctness, they excelled in a
•remarkable degree. We do not recollect
<of having heard a single mistake in spell
ing, and in reading they were equally cor-
'rcct, except in pronunciation one would
discover, that some had not yet mastered
the English language. We vv-re altogeth
er surprised to sec this correctness carried
is as well lined with gold as her sister.
But the misfortune is, that while
mere is so much of this golden trea
sure in both States, it is rare that we
can get a sight of it above ground.
VIRGINIA GOLD.
It no longer remains a doubt but
lhat gold of a pure quallity is to be
found in this county, as it has alrea
dy been discovered on eight dilferent
plaintationons, one of which, viz, that
of Capt. Wm. F. and Dr. Ed. White,
about $800 worth of surface gold has
been obtained within a few months,
and the partial diggings and examina
tions which liavo been made in sever
al places, as witnessed by the writer
of this, indicates an abundant sup
ply-
From the "Raleigh Register of June 23.
SOUTH CAROLINA GOLD.
Wo arc informed that a gold mine
‘ has been recently discovered in Da
vidson Co. containing a vein of the
precious metal, eighty fret in width.
This is the largest vein ever heard of
either in this, or any other country.
They generally vary in width from
two to live feet.
From Yorkvillo (S. C.) Pioneer of June 23.
SOUTH CAROLINA GOLD.
It is with much pleasure we state,
that a company of gentlemen of this
District have commenced the gold
mining business with every prospect
of success. A few days since,
wc were shown a piece of gold, (a-
bout six grains,) collected from about
two quarts of pulverized rock, which
was found in their mines in this Dis
trict. We do not deem it improper
to remark, that a gentleman of this
place has discovered a gold mine on
his plantation, situated about a mile
from this village, which, from every
appearance, promises to be very
productive.

nv'nts of English Grammar 3- Arithmetic.
One class of the hoys and one of the gills,
recited with a remarkable exactness, the
'boundaries, principal towns and rivers, of
each State—seats of learning, the situation
of towns, courses of rivers &c. The boys
$ •then gave their visitors specimens of their
oratorial powers. A few short single pie
ces and three dialogues were spoken. In
tills part of their exercises we thought they
were deficient, possessing too much the
Common diffidence of Indians. The gills
closed, the exercise by repeating an origin
al dialogue, written by tlieir teacher, Miss
Ames, and by singing the Hymn,
Christians, hear those notes of anguish
Raised by many a wretch forlorn;
Far beyond the s-o they languish;
Wilhoutpeace or hope they mourn. &c.
It was a feast to hear , them sing. The
most interesting sight to us was the exhi
bition the little girls mule to their parents
1 and friemds of their workmanship. Ac
cording to our very feeble judgment, the
improvement made by them in this de
partment of their education was worthy of
the highest commendation. The smallest
girls, hardly three feet high, produced a
fine quilt which they had made with their
own hands, for the benefit of a benevolent
Society organized in the girls’ School.—
After the close of the exercises, the visitors
were invited to a plain and wholesome din
ner prepared Ijy the Missionaries. Nine
ty five persons seated themselves at the
•first table.
For our own part Wo ar(j prepare*! to
Say that we were gratified, and h?,vc felt
'ourselves fully paid for riding forty five
miles. Many morc^ve believe, felt as we
did. Though there was a largn company
on Tuesday and Wednesday, yet we ob
served a remarkable degree of good or der
'and good behaviour manifested. We saw
•no one at whom wc could point our finger
and say, "there goes a savage,’’except one
and he happened to he a white man from
.Tennessee. We saw this man stand

From various indications throughout
«ur District, as well as the spirit
which animates our citizens on the
subject, we should not be surprised
if, in u few years, York would be
come as celebrated for gold mining as
Mecldfcnburg county, North Carolina.
There are still, however, wauling
men possessing not only the capital,
but the same enterprise of those gen
tlemen first alluded to, in order that
the business may be successfully pur
sued.
Presence o) Mind.—While a lad,
seven years of age, was in bed on
Friday evening, in a house in the up
per part of the city, he was astonish
ed to perceive a strange man enter
the room, and alter having cautiously
looked round and surveyed it, ap
proach the bed. The boy closed his
eyes as the stranger came nearer,.and
on.his arriving at the bed assumed
the appearance of slumber. For
some moments the follow hovered n-
rouml the bed, and made uso of vari
ous artifices to discover whether the
inmate was in reality asleep. Hav
ing satisfied himself of the apparent
tact, ho left the side of the bed, and
the little trembler ventured to take a
peep at the viilian, ho found him cool
ly removing from a bureau several
mtrelea of wearing apparel, with
'which he left tho room, lie had on
ly got down a dozen stairs, when the
hoy forgot his fears, jumped from his
bed, and screamed with such violence
that his. father rushed from the par
lour, and just in time to grasp the
robber. The fellow was taken to the
police, where was instantly recogniz
ed Jas. Armstrong, who had been ac
quitted of a felony the same day, in
the Court of Sessions—Jour, of Com.
Another Tornado.—A most impetu
ous stprm passed last week, thro’ the
middle of the township of Drummond,
U. C. in a North East direction. It
did not spread widely but it has done
great .deal of injury in its narrow
range,' Many eattld in the woods, or
on the'verge of them, were killed by
the falling of trees, sundry houses ma
terially injured by the fury of 1 lie
wind apd hail, and whole fields of corn
cut off,as completely as if they had
been mown down with a scythe. We
are assured by a person, on whose ve
racity wc can put entire confidence,
that lie gathered some of the (Tail,which
was a solid lump in form of n die, &
that measured two inches on tho edge,
without calculating the length of the
various spars of something like hoary
frost which projected from (lie sides.
This piece, which is described to us
as hard as if it hod been cut from the
river in the middle of winter, would
contain eight solid inches. Besides
destroying all kinds of crop, as far as it
reached. As may well be supposed,
no windows against which it was driv
en escaped breakage. In Mr. Lald-
ersou s house alone 50 panes were
broken. A young man who was driv
ing oxen from Lanark, with a loud for
Mi. Coleman, assures us, that he was
actually knocked down by the hail, so
violent was the impetus of the tem
pest on which it was w'afted.—Exam,
W c were yesterday shown a pitch
er or cream jug, which holds about
half a pint. It was made of wooden
staves hooped with silver and a glass
bottom. The staves were taken from
the Tree under which William Penn
made his treaty with the Indians.—
We expressed some surprise when wc
were told that the Pitcher had been
taken to pieces to decide a wager of
twenty dollars, and that one thousand
six slave* were counted in it. It was
mode by Joshua Peddle, and is the
property of Mr. John Johnson.

One way to reform a Drunken JIns-
band.— i'he W estern Intelligencer re
lates the story of a lady in the State
of New York, who took the following
summary means to avenge the fre
quent insults and injuries she had re
ceived from her drunken partner.—
She had married him with a fair pros
pect of enjoying competency and hap
piness; but in the course of a year he
joined himself to a dub of merry fel
lows, and became a toper. She bore
his abuse, and even his blows for a long
lime, with no other complaint hut her
tears—but at length her situation be
came so intolerable, that she could
endure it no longer. She i -solved on
a desperate expedient; and on his re
turn from his usual haunt of dissipa
tion, just drunk enough to leave him
strength to heat hex, she put her plan
in execution. As soon as he was lar t
asleep, she sewed him u.p in a sheet
with a strong twine, leaving him only
a little space to breathe. She then
packed up her clothing, dressed her
child, saddled a horse, and waited
calmly for her husband to wake from
his slumbers. At day light ho began
to move, and finding the predicament
he was in, poured forth a torrent of
curses upon his wife, ordering her to
release him instantly. She arose, looit
down a raw hide which he had otten
exercised upon her own person, and
approaching tho bed, with perfect
composure, recounted the injuries she
had received—the ruin lie had brought
upon himself and family, the patience
with which she had endured her suf
ferings, and even declared that she
then lured him as she did her own
life—but she could endure his tyranny
uo longer—she was going to her fa
nner's house, taking nothing but her
child and a few articles ol clothing—
before she went, however, she had a
painful account to settle with him.—
Suspecting her intention, lie promised
amendment; but she commenced the
work of flagellation with all the
strength siie could exert—lie cried tor
mercy, and attempted to extricate
himself, but his arms were too tirnuy
pinioned—he rolled from tne bed io
the tloor, but his wife kept the whip
moving until she thought sue had prei
ty well re-paid his kindness, wnen sue
bid him good morning, look up her
child, mounted her horse and ruile a-
way. Sue called at a neighbor s house,
made known the situation of her hus
band, and requested that, at a certain
hour, he might bo released, which was
accordingly done. Shame and morti
fication overpowered lus love of drink:
lie lived soberly for a year, when Ins
wife consented to return to his house,
and they have since lived happily and
affectionately together, rearing up u
numerous and well ordered family.
Brave Defence.—A house on Brook
lyn Heights, occupied by the children
of the late Dr. Smith, was entered by
two negro men -n Saturday night last,
about tvvelvo o,clock, with an inten
tion of robbing it. The eldest child,
a boy, only sixteen, who had risen to
see whence the noise proceeded, on
opening tho door had a horse pistol
thrown at him by >ne of the viliians,
and then was fired at by tho other.
The loaded pistol they had brought
with them; the other had been taken
from a trunk. Tho youth with a
courage and spirit which would have
done credit to any man, knowing lhat
he was the only defender for his five
little sisters and brothers, and not
perceiving that a slug from a pistol
had passed through his arm, seized a
musket which stood in thej-ooo to
resist the wretches. Recollecting
tiial fie had before taken out the prim
ing, on account of the children, he
snook the piece, hoping some ol the
charge might be got into the pan; but
iailing in this, he butted his gun, and
by repeatedly beating the negroes,
drove them off.
The oldest sister, alarmed by the
noise, had been heard coming to in
quire the cause; when he called to
her to take care of herself and the
little ones. One of the negrOes came
up to her w hile she was leading them
i away, and blew out the lamp in her
: hand—not, however, until bho observ-
: ed lie had a large knife. The coura-
I geous girl, in spite of nil this, after
! having taken the two children to a
I neighbour's door, where she consider-
1 ed them iu safely, returned to ihc
; house:—but the robbers had (led,
, ami she met her brother almost cov*
i cred with his own blood. The wound
! is not at all dangerous.

Payment in advance-is required for the

establishment ma-c it desirable and prop
er. Some risk is incur; ed by the publish
ers; ami it is but reasonable that patrons
should afford accommodation of paying so'

paid for, either in advance, or when each
number is taken. 1 his practice is fast

troublesome to subscribers, and sodisccur-
agmg, and sometimes ruinous to publishers;
are not suffered to exist.
