Precocity.—A few years ago, a little follow was taken by his father to a carpenter, to he bound appentice to him,after the fashion of those times. In settling the business, the inastor, who was one of the stiff kind, observed : “Well, boy, I suppose you can eat most any. thing, can t you ! I always make my boys live on what they don’t like.” “Hove every thing but mince pie and apple pie! was the boy’s instant reply. A day or two ago, a Quaker and a hot-headed youth were quarreling in the street. The broad brimmed I riend kept his temper most equably, which seemed but to increase the anger of the other, “bellow, ’ said the latter in a pnsion, “I don’t know a bigger fool than you,” finishing the expression with an oath. Stop, friend!”! Wjtt^^^jakeiy‘ , (hou forgettest thyself."— l ilA'ou ere as rich as Jacob Astnr?* * Well, I don’t know exactly what I would do witli so much money as he has ; but one thing is certain, I’d give all the poor in my neighbor hood one good dinner.’ ‘ Is that all ? ’ ‘O no; I would repeat the. dose so often that ! the leanest should cry enough ! ’ 4 Well, Mr. Harris, I have heard a great /nany people talk in just this manner ; hut w lien Providence had blessed them, they have almost invariably forgot all their good resolutions.’ ‘Some may have done so ; but just give me a chance, and I’ll show you the difference.’ 4 Ah! I fear, neighbor,—said Mr. Brown, as he walked away— 4 but few arc able to with stand temptation.’ 4 And I am willing to he tempted; the sooner the better,’ said Mr. Harris, as he passed on. But one year from the date of the. above con versation, Mr. Harris was what the. world calls j -—a rich man. An uncle had died in the In- 1 dies (or somewhere else) at just the lucky mo- : ment, leaving him sole heir to a fortune. Mr. Harris’s first intelligence was a draft for fifty thousand dollars, payable at sight. The poor man could hardly contain himself for joy ; a thousand brilliant visions danced through his brain. His wife should not labor; his children should he finely dressed, and delicately fed— and—his neighbors should have yes, he would give—•’ /i-somcthii.g, to some of his neighbors. The news of his good fortune spread like wildfire. Friends gathered round to congratu late. One and another volunteered this service 1 and that—odors they never would have made but for the ringing of that same fifty’ thousand dollars. Mr. Harris moved from his humble cottage to a splendid house in town. Mrs. Hjkrris no longer performed tlie drudgery for lie* family. Juno Hud JilJJen Jeit of}jLpjMt.ff brothers, and Henry anrTEdwaid sjun*no more | wood for the kitchen fire. S \\ ith wealth came wants innumerable. La bor once performed from necessity was renoun ced entirely, and with it the pleasure that labor | brings. Mr. Ha iris soon found himself unable to I walk. Horses must do the drudgery his limbs had hitherto been aide to perform, while pam pered appetite rejected the wholesomo food : which not long ago crowned his table. I Mr. B town, who had anticipated such revo ■ lutions, should his neighbor’s wish be granted, looked on it in silence. True, the good man breathed a sigh now and then for the fickleness j of his fellows, hut he chose that time and op | portunity should convince Mr. Harris that after all his boastings, ho was but human. The wholesome resolves 44 to do something for neigh bors” were undoubtedly forgotten in the multi plicity of cares which now encompassed our j rich friend, unless we reckon the feastings he gave those who were able to feast in return as ! worthy of the title. Not that Mr. Harris possessed less kindly impulses than in former times. Not so. He was ever a neighborly man, and ready to assist others according to his ability. Once his ex penses were low, because bis income was lim ited; now his position furnished a necessity for larger expenditures, and he really had nothing left to give. At least so ho convinced himself and endeavored to convince others. Nor is : this an exception to the general manifestation of suddenly acquired wealth. If man is omnivorous in any passion, it must bo love of gold, not for its own so much as for the gratification it ensures.— Wealth can purchase honor, fame, luxury, might and right; every thing but—and many a poor rich man groans as he hears tho 4 but ’ —hap.

He was willing to bo ■is wish had been granted, and like many othy Irs he had proved himself a frail man. During ■us protracted illness, recollections of neglectefl ■opportunities and wasteful extravagance trouby led him. Resolutions for the future were frel nuently avowed, but through tho arrangement:!

The maul rwho, but a few years ago, found his heart sol deeply touched with sympathy for his fellows,] .bad not fulfilled his better promptings when! n his power, and sought therefore B atone for past neglect, by bestowing in one generous bequest that which he could no longer retain, purchasing at once a name in the world for charity, and a right to be remembered at the portals of heaven.

Nov. 6,1846. 6m New Map of Georgia, THE undersigned has been, for months, past, en gaged, under the direction of his Excellency, Gov. Crawford, in compiling a Map of the Slate of Georgia, on a scale of six miles to the inch. The undertaking i is now nearly completed, and he flatters himself he will receive the favorable patronage of his fellow-citi zens—sufficient, at least, to have it published and ! placed in a durable form. That a revised delineation is called for, of our ex -1 tensive territory, independently of what exists in the labors of Sturges and Greene, will not be questioned. , The accumulation and possession, since their time*, I of a vast body of land designated then tuj wilderness, ! or the temporary domain of the Indian tyilfdfe, with n>t : ttrai objeets well worthy “ a habitation and n name,” have been converted into organized countie*, present doubtfully the best that t owid have btu n uesrrvt!.’ He gives first a general sketch of aneimt and modern history—a rapid and comprehensive btiti's-ere tss *, as it were, of the rise and ;>r. .:r< sos st : rE., tho most important incidents of their rareer. and their il lations to each other; and after ti.i- be takes tip tho nations separately, furnishing a <•< ncise d’gest of oil that is important or desirable to knew concerning each, and thus affording a sort of key to the changes and events that were more briefly indicated rather bv their results than their incidents, in the general sketch or outline. Thus the salient points of history are brought within a manageable c. mps. -s ; nnd an excel lent foundation is laid for more tfvrm.gh and exten sive reading in reference to any jw.rtit u o. the work! or any epoch of which a ktu w'erl. e nuty lie desired. In the execution of this plan the auilior has been very successful. His notice of historical events, tho’ brief, are lucid and satisfactory ; and he traces the connection of effect and cause with singular .aeiunr rt and genarally with most commendable freedom from partiality or bias ; thus supplying a very ■good Idea ot the philosophy of history as well aa qflhtßlaCts which history records. In a word, the found invaluable to the general reader aiidin vgry useful help to the student. 0“ Complete in two Volumes—lares octavo —with en gravings, $4.

Among other things, it will contain a History of Virginia; nnd ar rangements will be made for procuring a regular and ear ly supply of Notices of New Works, and other Literary Intelligence.
