‘West Point, to enjoy its pare air, charming
prospects, and tat c a bottle of Mr. Cozzen’s
excellent sherry. The day it was necessary
to return to town for examination, he sat very
r osily tossing his glass, when the alarm bell
rang the approach of the steamboat, and they
‘ail but Jack left the table to gat ready. He
was certain there was plenty of time, and
acted on this maxim so tong, that a servant
t >!d hiiu he did not make haste he would
lose his passage. Then he bestirred bun
s'!!’ with his usual alacrity, and never mail
made tucks,”“as they say in the west, down
that winding and labarynthian path leading
from the hotel to the wharf, as did Jack Ilas
ile. He ran against three projecting rocks,
half a dozen young sapling's, slid ten yards at a
lime, and finally wouud it up by pitching
head foremost against one of the Cold Spring
boatmen, who pitched into the river, and
drank such a draught of pure water as he
never swallowed in his life before. But all
*vould not do; he was just thirty six seconds
too late, and an old lady who had witnessed his
descent down the hill could not help say
ing to her husband—l pity that poor young man,
fir being left; for 1 dare say he has some parti
cular business, and he made such haste as I ne
ver saw before.”
“Hum,"replied he,“it’s not always those who
make the greatest haste make most of their
time.”
Jack stood on the wharf almost wishing
the steamboat might blow up or break down,
iti order to reconcile his disappointment,
though every candid person will acquit the
steam boat of all blamo in the business.—
However this may be, he was obliged to atone
to the boatman for making him drink so much
water, by treating him to an an equal quantity of
tile creature, which in sweet Ireland, is called
“Mountain Dew,” and is qualified by mixing
one glass with another of the same. But this
was not the worst; there was no other opportuni
ty that day, and Jack did not arrive in townfime
enough for the examination. This put him back
a whole term, and it has been surmised,lost him
at least, the distant prospect of a suit at law,
which his cousin, the merchant, kept waiting
for him. But his old uncle, who had become
disgusted with rural felicity, and returned to
business again, insisted on his giving it to
someone who never lost his passage in a
steam-boat.
“The fellow never will be able to keep up with
the law, slow as it is,” said he “and it will lose
a term oftcner than he willjgain a suit,l’ll answer
for it.”
Jack however got his license at last, and
it was observed that though he came to his
office in a fume of impatience, it was always
after every body else in the house ; for it is
to be noted that there were six lawyers, three
brokers, a printer, and a lottery office keeper,
all in the same building, besides a boot black in
the cellar.
It was a refreshing sight to see the exemplary
patience with which Jack sat in his office, with
his feet against the jamb, and a segar in his
mouth, studying the institutes of the Waverly
novels, and waiting for a suit, with ten times the
patience of a young lady waiting to be suited.
At last a friend came with a suit, that if properly
conducted, would have led him on to distinction
and fortune; for it was oneof great consequence,
and nothing but the friendship of the gentleman
would have induced him to employ Jack on the
occasion. He came to Jack’s office in the
moring before his office was open and being
tinder circumstances that forbade his waiting,
departed in search of his old master, who mis
quoted Cicero, to whom he committed the man
agement of his business. Fifteen minutes
after, Jack came a3 usual in a great hurry, and
opened his shop,but he might as well have come
fifteen years after, for that matter.
At last Providence in bis wrath actually sent
him a suit, which Jack managed eminently
well. He carried all the papers about sticking
out of of his pocket—fidgetted about the courts
and the offices like a hen and one chicken, and
managed so admirably, that after losing three
terms by not being ready, he at length was
seen coming into court all in a perspiration and
out of breath, just one hour after it had been
called.
“You have been non-suited, Mr. Hastie,”
said the Judge, and the consequence was, Jack
lost his suit, his fees, and the confidence of eve
ry clint on the face of the earth.
Thus he went on always in a hurry; yet every
day losing opportunities of bettering his fortune,
until by degrees he became a pattern of a gen
tlemen running to seed: In short he went down
hill almost as fast as when he lost his passage
in the steam-boat. To make an end of my sto -
ry, and come to the cream of it as quick as pos
sible, —I lately saw him in a great hurry as usu
al, with all the marks of one that had seen bet
ter days, enter the shop of a bookseller, to tell
him he had decided to accept the job he had
spoken of yesterday.
“You are too late, Mr. Haste,” said the book
seller: you were to give me an answer at nine—
it is now ten o’clock, aid I have just employed
another person.”
Poor Jack! my heart smote me too see him,
and I followed, with the offer of my services so
far as money was concerned.—He accepted a
trifle, and I returnded to the bookseller; an old
shrewd tradesman, such as used to be common
fifty years ago, but are rather scarce at pre
sent.
‘That poor fellow,’ said I, is one of the most
active, industrious inen in the woi Id; —he seems
always busy driving about and doing something,
yet see what he has coine to. I cannot account
tor his misfortunes.”
“I can said the bookseller: he looses an hour
every morning, and all the rest of the day is
spent in trying to overtake it.”
VISIT TO MOUNT VESUVIUS.
Extract of a letter dated,
Naplfs, March 19th, 1833.
••Imagine ine just at the bottom ofthe crater
of Vesuvius, dr iwing my breath with difficulty ;
not being able to see three inches before me for
smoke, and standing first on one foot, and then
on the other, to avoid burning them, and I will
tell you how Ica e there.
“We had been here, (S, and myself,) for a
fortnight, with but one day on which it did not
rain, and becoming impatient, we resolved yes
terday morning to ascend the mountain, in spite
of a black and threatening storm ; and leaving
this place in a barouche at 9 o’clock, we rode
to Resina, where to our joy the sun began to
show his face. Leaving our carriage you can
see us winding up the first part of the ascent,
in the following order, viz :—foremost was your
friend S. mounted on a small country horse,
looking the most respectable of the party ; next
came your humble servant, on a jackass, with a
boy.halfdomon and half human, walking behind,
and occasionally laying on my Rosmantc, with
about the same effect that you would produce on
a stone wall. S. quizzing me all the time on
the sober bearing and appearance of the above
mentioned jackass. Behind, two Lnzzaroni fol
lowed, looking very much as if they would as
sassinate us.
“The first mile or two of the ascent was beau
tiful in the extreme,and commanded a fine pros
pect of Naples and the surrounding country ;
but gradually, as we approached the hermitage,
all vestiges of verdure disappeared, and neither
man, bird, nor beast, was to be seen, but all
around one immense field of lava, worked up in
to the wildest and most terrific forms that im
: agination can conceive, and presenting nothing
1 but desolation—a desolation that cannot be de
scribed, and which puts one in mind of Milton’s
description of Satan and his Angels, after their
banishment from Heaven, when the morning
discovers them prostrate on an immense waste
of fire and desolation. After arriving within
half a mile of the top of the old crater, we were
obliged to leave our beasts, and taking a good
staff, to climb almost perpendicularly, with sand
and gravel to our ancles,after proceeding in this
way for a half hour, we reached the top of
what has, since ’22 been the crater, until within
three months when anew one about two or
three hundred feet high, was thrown up by the
force ol the mountain. This old crater, was
three miles in circumference, and presents at
present only an immense wild waste of smoking
lava. In the centre of this crater, the new one
rises, and we proceeded (after eating some ap
ples roasted at the fire, issuing from some of the
crevices) to the highest peak of all.
It is impossible to describe the appearance
from this point—it seemed the very entrance of
the infernal regions, and froma mouth of a quarter
of a mile in circumference, rushed a dense cloud
of smoke.
my guide began the circuit round the edge
of this “bocca,” but I found my feet so hot, and
my breath so far gone, that I became a little
alarmed, and asked i',’ we had not better stop.
You may judge of my surprise, when he pro
posed going to the bottom. After tying my
handkerchief round my face, to preserve a little
air, down we went on our hands and feet, through
a sinoke which would not allow us to see two
steps before us, and we could only place our
hands in one position for a second, for fear of
burning them, the ground and rocks were so
hot.
After descending about forty feel, the smoke
became less dense, and we were enabled to pro
ceed with less fear to the bottom, where we found
the stones of a bright yellow. It appears from
my guide’s account, that at the time of an erup
tion, there is no bottom; and that it is very rarely
that one can descend as far as we did, the
mountain being at present more tranquil than it
has been for years. I confess I was very glad
to reach the top, with the loss of my boots and
gloves, both burnt to a cinder, while all my but
tons and the collar of my coat, were of a deep
red from the sulphur. The descent from the
mountain was very easy and we returned home,
voting the day to have been passed most agreea
bly.— Boston Allas.
Praying Machine'. —This seems to be the
age of machinery. Labor saving machines are
introduced for the most trivial, as well as the I
most important purposes of life. Operations
which were performed twenty years ago, by
manuel labor, are now, thanks to steam and
the march of improvement, performed by means
of machines. But we believe that no machine
has yet been introduced among civilized socie
ty to assist the intellectual capacity. Such an
approvement is yet a desideratum. If we could
only think by means of machinery, there would
no longei be such a thing as the aristocracy of
nature; we should be all Jree and unequal.
Nor is the idea so absurd as it may at first
appear. The Calmuc Tartars pray by machine
ry make excellent prayers, and to the purpose
too. Tho hint may be improved by us civil- i
ized beings. The following is the description
of this praying machine, as given in a little
work entitled Calmuc Tartary. lately published
in London, containing travels through the coun
try in 1822, and ’25, by Henry Augustus
Zwick.
“It consists of hollow wooden cylinders, of
different sizes, filled with Tangud writings.
The cylinders are painted with red stripes, and !
adorned with handsome gilt letters, in the Sans- i
crit character commonly containing the formu
la, Ornma-in-had-mse, chum; each of these is
fixed upon an iron axis, which goes through a
square frame; this frame is capable of being
shut up flat, and is formed upon a small scale,
much like a weavers sheering machine. Where
the lower parts of the frame cross, there is a
hole in which the axis of the cylinder turns; by’
means of a string which is attached to a crank
in the spindle, the machine can be kept in mo
tion, so that the cylinder turns in the frame like
a grindstone, only upright upon its axis. Be
fore the fire at Sarepta, we had two large Kur
dus of this kind, with Tangud writings of all
sorts, rolled one upon another round the spin
dle in the inside of the cylinder, to the length al- ‘
together of some hundred feet. These prayer 1
mills perform a much more important office i
than a rosary, which only serves to assist
the person who prays. The moguls believe that
it is merriiorious respectfully to set in motion,
whether by the wind or otherwise, such as con
tain prayers and other religious documents, that
tho npise of these scraps of theology may reach
the gods and bring down their blessings. As
these prayer machines usually contain the Ta
gud Formula, w hich is serviceable to all living
creatures! it is repeated, it may be, ten thousand
times, so that there is a multiplication of pow
er, like that in the English machines, equivalent
to the labor of so many individuals. As
a prayer can, in this manner, be carried
like a wholesale manufactory, it is not very sur
prising that prayer mills are so commonly to be
found in the houses of tho Moguls. An inge
nious contrivance, this for storming Heaven
with the least possible trouble.”
The machine described above was seen in.the
tribe of prince Erdeni. Mr. Zwick afterwards
visited Prince Otschir, where he saw a praying
machine on an improved plan, “being set in mo
tion like a horrizontal mill, by four large spoon
shaped sails, turned by the wind.”— Ex. News

.inti-Ratification Melting. —A large number of the citi
zens of Clark county met at Watkins ville, on the 4th in
stant to take in consideration the proceedings of the late
convention. George R. Clayton,Esq, ofierd a set of Reso
lutions, opposing tho ratification of the Convention ;
which were advocated by himself, Col. Joseph Ij ltron
Asbury Hull, and opposed by Junius iiillier, Esq.; and
imd when tho question Vas put, adopting Ciayton’s reso
lutions, only two voices responded to the negative. The
proceedings of this meeting has covinccd us of the truth
of what we have long since believed, that if meetings of
this kind can be got up in the difiTerent counties and the
people correctly informed upon the subject, that they will
do right, in rejecting a system so well calculated to be
imposed upon those who arc uninformed upon the sub
ject
W e wery anxious for Lumpkin county to set the first ex
ample ofv-Aa.a meeting upon this subject, and we
would be glad now to see her get the second honor, by
holding a meeting, and adopting resolutions, rejecting
every feature of the proceedings ofa convention, got up
through the best of motives; but the object of which, has
been so grossly perverted, by a few would be southern
political champions, who seem to be too much on the
camclion order to be entitled to the respect or confidence,
of an honest comnunity.
A Correspondent of the North American Gazette who
wroteoverthe signature of “ Baldwin” from this place
on the 10th of June last, has so wilfully slandered our
town, country and citizens, that we deem it our duty to
notice the calumniator, so far as lo contradict hit state
mentsin relation to the citizens ofthis place, and counter
act an unfavorable impression, already too deeply rooted,
to require the gigantic strength, or the fertility of “ Bald
win’s” imagination in tiring, to dous great injustice. We
have herd a population, the number of which, would re
flect great credit to a city which had not been settled lon
ger than thisplace, and this uumber too, has been collect
ed from all parts ofthe Union, aid placed here without
any sort of municipal regulation; with no shackles of re
straint around them, except their consciences, and the
laws ofthe country, and we defy the world with such a
number, brought together under such circumstances, to
produce a precedent for good order and respectability
among those that we consider citizens ofthe place. It is
true that many people visit here as Baldwin did, whose
moral example, has neither been felt, seen, nor heard
of among us, for the best of reasons, because they have
not “let their lights shine” unless it was in dissipation,
during their stay here; and then go off and lay the whole
ofit on the citizens ofthe place. It is true, that visitors
seem to view tliis as the most favorable spot of all others
for them to take their sprees and amusements; and the
reason is very plaip, for when they here, all stan
gers together, they are so completely masked, as to be
beyond the fear rs detection, and there are many who
come here, just logo in for a frolic. But it is that sort of
conduct that, can injure pone except, they engage
in it; fr we hear ofno miduightaesassins; no pocketpick
ing; no robberies; no stoalng of any kind and we
believe our chance to hear, equally as good as Baldwins,
a " d ° U , r ,j haDCU l ° hearthe tmth, much better than that
ofthe editor ofthe North American Gazette, whenevor
he hears from his correspondent “ Baldwin.” Ho #it
was that Baldwin should come here, and find out in a
few days stay; things that have never happened,nor been
thought of, is very strange. He must have kept the ve
ry worst company that resorts the place, and then he
must not only have exaggerated greatly, but lied most
egregiously„ in his celebrated letter to the Editor of the
North American Gazette. We assure the public, that
we have good Taverns here, kept by responsible men ,
and a population able, and at all times willing to protect
the persons and property of individuals who visit this
place, who conduct thomseles in a decent, and becoming
manner. The unfavorable impressions attempted to be
made by ‘Baldwin’ and others, to the contrary, notwith
standing,

COMMUNICATED.
TO LOT PURCHASERS.
The purchasers of Lots at the Court House
village in Lumpkin, and indeed in all the other
countif3 in the Cherokee Tciritorv, oromost
respectfully advised by one who takes a lively
interest in the beauty and prosperity of country
villages, to avoid destroying their greatest orna
ment, to wit: the native growth of Shade trees,
particularly the'Forest oak, the most beautiful
shade tree in our country.
It has been the practice heretofore in cleaning
out a site for a Court House village to lay the
uxe to the root of every tree, however beautiful,
and the workof destruction went on until literally,
not a shrub was left, either upon the public
square, or upon the building lots of individuals.
An injurious method of clearing ground, most
seriously felt by the inhabitants a few years
afterwards, and to repair which they had re
course to planting other trees not half so durable
nor so beautiful as the oak, and ever that remedy
left there to be scorched by the burning rays of
the summer sun for several years, until those
trees around come to maturity. In the eyes of
a stranger, or a citizen oftaste, nothing so much
improves the appearance of a village as a few
well placed shade trees, and certainly nothing
is more conducive to the health and comfort of
the inhabitants. Therefore be advised, fell not
a single tree upon the public square, nor upon
individual property, unless compelled to do so.
If the forest growth is too large and there is any
danger from being blown down, let them stand
until the next winter, and then cut the tops off.
This will be of advantage for a good shade, and
will take off all risk of their being blown down
by the severest storm.
