the world we live IN,
Tiio improvemoat of the printing press is,
in value, not far short of printing itself. It i.s
curious to find that the art ol making paper
from linen rag? almost immediately followed
the original discovery of printing with move
ab!e types. If parchment had continued to be
the only material, the press must have been
almost wholly precluded. Paper of straw, of
cotton, and of papyrus had been tried, and fail
ed from its dearness, its difficulty, and its spee
dy wear. The linen rag was accidentally and
fortunately used, and we thus obtained the true
material to receive the thoughts of mankind,
and transmit them almost imperishably.
The steam-press works with a force, a ra
pidity, an exactness, and an ease wliich make a
new era in printing. But a press, just an
nounced as the work of an Amcrcian artist,
leaves even the steam-press far behind. It is
said to be able to work off jifly reams of the
largest sized paper in the day. Attached to a
'paper mill, it will work oil' its impression as
fast as the mill can manufacture the paper. A
sheet of paper, twenty-six feet long, has been
printed by this press in fifteen seconds. Ti:is
sheet was equivalent to two volumes of 180
pages, each. The price of the machine is
moderate—*looo dollars. Its chief work hith
erto has been with stereotype plates, and for
. thesc-it lias been peculiarly adopted.
We admit that this is an American account,
and wte pefectly know tliat Jonathan delights
in amplication. But he i« still an ingenious
mechanic ; some of the cleverest additions to
the printing apparatus, of late years, have been
of his invention. Mechanism is boundless,
and we have no right to be sceptical at any
{**i«t short of impossibility.
Tiiere arc few stronger indications of the
original tendency of Napoleon to charlatanry
than his having kept up a balloon establishment
at Meudom It never did any thing, nor was
expected by him to do any thing. But it gave
the Parisians something to talk of; it promised
a mysterious supremacy to France whenever
the “grand homme” should condescend to
call that supremacy into action, and it mysti
fied the idlers of Europe. However, it is sur
prising that he did not avail himself of its
known and manageable powers for the service
of the field. That it was use the battle of
Jcimppewas notorious, and that there it ena
bled the French staff to reconnoitre the whole
of the Austrian positions. It was equal, of
course, to have rendered the same service in
every subsequent campaign; and among
mountain districts, forests, and the infinite va
rieties of broken ground on wliich the French
battles were fought, from Italy to Mooouw, the
knowledge of the enemy’s positions could not
have been obtained by any other means so
speedily, securely, and effectually. Still noth
ing was .attempted; and until tlie spirit ol ad
venture in some parties among ourselves, and
the passion for shillings in others, provoked the
revival of aerostation, it slumbered throughout
the surface of the globe. But a Belgian professes
to have, at last, made the grand discovery.
He laughs at the idea of any future difficulty
in guiding the balloon, computes nothing but
the quantity of provisions necessary for the
time of his voyage in the clouds, calculates by
circles ol longitude and latitude, and offers to
contract for the mails from London to the anti
podes. lie keeps his principal secret only un
til he shall have been able to secure his patent
in the four quarters of the earth. Then shall
the world of science bo astonished, the world
of commerce be enriched, and the world ot let
ters lie enlightened ; and the brilliant Belgian,
of all the benefactors of mankind the most be
neficent, shall breakfast in Brussels, dine in
Timbuctoo, and sleep Eldorado.

THE DREAM OF INNOCENCE.
TO A YOUNG LADY WHO SAID HER DREAMING HOURS WERE
THE MOST PLEASANT ONES OF HER EXISTENCE.
Oh, lovely dreamer ! on that brow of thine,
Where Innocence her purest wroathlcts twine—*
I’d gaze with fondness in thy sleeping hours,
While fancy reigned o’er all thy mental powers;
Nor gloom of night should hide thee from my view,
Though mantling ell beside in sable hue.
Some lovely summer’s eve, when zephyrs blow
From Indian isles, where .fragrant spites grow,
And the meek sun shines through the forest trees
Upon thy brow and mingles with the breeze—
Which like some Spirit hand gently unfurls
From off thy checks those bright Hyperion curls.
0, with what rapture could my fond eyes gaze
| Upon tliosc features, basking in the rays
Os a fast sinking sun—which, as they shone
I With lustre there, reflected back thy own.
But still more rapturous could my feelings be,
j Could I suspect thou ever dreamed of me—
I bile I with fondness would my vigil keep.
And thou so sweetly slept, or seemed to sleep.
My fancy brings to view-, with magic power,
I The beauty of thy form in such an hour i
And memory, though it flatters every day,
Still brings thee near while thou art far away.
The joyous smiles of innocence and love,
1 Duelled by some artist’s pencil from above,
With which, as on thy cheeks they richly glow,
Not Tyrian dyes could half such beauty show ; t
Are lingering yet in memory’s fondest dreams
I o shed upon my heart thy brightest gleams,
And light the way-worn path of constant love,
Wrth some feint stars like those which shine above
I VV liich fade at almost every breath;
I till life’s wild vagaries and dreams
f Are lust i n the long sleep of death.
VILLAGE BARD.
A CRAVE GIRL.
Li this State, no minor can obtain ftom the j
county commissioners’ courts, a license to
marry, without first obtaining the consent of
his or lier parent or guardian, and, without
such license, cannot marry in this State. Young
couples frequently fly to the opposite side of
the Mississippi, where no license is required.
These “ runaway matches,” as they are
called, are very frequent. A laughable occur
rence of that kind happened a few days ago,
which has made much sport in this region.
A Miss , about seventeen years of age,
who is the heiress to an estate valued at
•SIO,OOO, lately ran away in company with a
bridesmaid and her lover, who was nearly thir
ty. Her guardian, believing the man totally
unworthy of her, had refused his consent.
When they reached the bank of the Mississippi,
the ice was running furiously in the river; but
the young lady, expecting every moment her
guardian would arrive there in pursuit, urged
her lover to lose not an instant in pushing the
boat from tlie shore. His courage seemed to
have a good deal abated ; hut he, with the own
er of a large skiff, and the bridesmaid, embark
ed with his intended bride. They had nearly
reached the head of an island, about a third of
the distance from the opposite shore, when the
current became more rapid, tlie cakes of ice
verv large, and their situation extremely dan
gerous. The lover, excessively frightened,
and forgetful of every body but his own dear
self, bawled out irt the most piteous accent,
“Oh ! I shall be drow.’ied ! —I shall be drown
ed !” and bitterly reproached his lady-love as
the cause of his probable death. Site uttered
not a word, her courage and prescr.ce of mind
seemed to increase with the peril. A treTHCih
dous cake of ice fairly capsized the boat, In.’*
it was so large that all got on it, the lover ren
dered her no assistance at all. It bore them
to the head of the island, and as good fortune
would have it, the chute between it and the
Missouri shore was frozen over, and they
Crossed it without difficulty. They reached a
tavern near tlie river, and, after changing their
wet garments and becoming warm at a good
fire, the lover hinted to the young lady, that’t
was lime now for them to have the knot tied,
as the magistrate had arrived for that purpose,
and was in the next room. She gave him a
most withering look of contempt, and declared
she would never unite her destiny with one
who was so selfish and cowardly* It was in
vain that he attempted by entreaty and argu
ment to change her resolution. She was im
movable, and replied to him with scorn.
A few days afterwards, she returned to the
house of her guardian, thankful that she had
escaped marrying a man whose only object was
her furl u no.
Her lover returned to the side of the river
also; but such showers of ridicule and con
tempt were bestowed upon him, that he found
it best to decamp which he did a few nights
ago, leaving behind him a host of unpaid de
mands. Illinois Backwoodsman.
GOOD SENSE PROVERBS.
If a man cheat thee once, shame on him ;
if lie cheat thee twice, shame on thee.
If a man deceives thee, trust him not again.
If he insults thee, go away from him, and if
he strike thee thrash him like smoke.
If you have lost your credit, be industrious
and honest and you will gain it.
If you have lost your property, be industri
ous, honest and frugal and you will acquire
more.
If you arc persecuted regard it not, but be
ware of prosecution.
If people tell lies on thee, regard them not ;
but have a care to your actions, lest they tell
the truth on thee.
If thou art poor be honest, and if thou art
rich be charitable.
If thou art a drunkard quit thy drunken
habits —if you are a sober man remain such.
If you have a good wife take care of her;
and if you have not get one immediately.
If you are afraid of witches subscribe to
this paper and they shall not harm thee—pro
vided however you p-p-pay id-in a-a-advance.
A point of order. —A debating society in a
town “ down cast,” one evening undertook to
discuss the question —whether intemperance
or slaverv was productive of the most evil in
the United States ? A worthy Deacon con
tending against the former, proposed to show
its effects on its victims “in eternity.” “ Stop!
stop!” cried the chairman, “ that’s out of the
United States.”
A New Orleans Advertisement. —“ Lost—
yesterday, on Magazine street, a small blue
morocco pocket-book, containing a variety of
papers —among the rest, a tailor’s bill, amount
ing to $135. " Any person finding the same
will please to pay the bill, and nothing more
shall be said.”
The rich old gentleman at New Orleans,
who, with his young bride, was so horribly lie
set night after night, by three or four thousand
professors of “ cat-music,” has at last purchas
ed from his tormentors the merev of their si
lence, bv acceding to their demands and giving
SI,OOO to the Orphan Boy’s Asylum.
That unfathomable quagmire in Ohio, called
the “ Black Swamp,” so long the terror to mail
contractors, and the torment of news-seeking
editors, is to lie expunged, and $40,000 are
appropriated hv the Legislature to have it ma

Tlie number of revolutionary pensioner*
north of the Potomac, compared to those south,
of it, is as five to one. Tnis discrepancy is
not owing to any jieculiar longevity at the
north, but to the fact that, in the revolution, as
well as in the last war with Great Britain, the
Southerners did nearly all the blustering, and
tlie Yankees nearly all the fighting. The
Southerners have not yet forgotten how to
bluster. Boston Times.
You arc altogether wrong, Mr. Times, in
your reasoning. Tlie scarcity of pensioners j
in the South is owing to a different cause. We
have known many Revolution soldiers, living'
in the South, who never applied for pensions,
because they were unwilling to creep up to
impertinent office-holders as paupers, 1 and re
ceive the pittance meted out to them as a cltari
ty. Many of them, in the South and West,
have sons who would rather live on bread and
water and work themselves to death for the
support of their honored sires, than stoop to
receive the paltry sum of eight dollars per
month, grudgingly extended to them, through
the pension laws of an ungrateful and parsimo
nious General Government. In the North, it
may he otherwise. There, every one may
be very willing to get the pittance; but in the
•South, such crumbs are not sought after.
We never seek an occasion to show that
the South differs from the North in petty mo
ney matters; hut, when so palpable a calum
| ny is uttered against our ancestors as that
which we copy from the Times, it is hut just
that the truth should be spoken as an off-set.

A REMARKABLE woman.
Died, in this town, (Northside,) Molly Payne,

than the number of years she has

best that she W? s never known to tell a false

better not be told—she never went to church

might be better than her own, or to ridicule the

A Spring Morning. —To walk abroad abroad
among rural scenery on a fine sunny morning,
is to ramble in the temple of the Deity, and
witness the creative process. Every day, al
most every hour, witnesses some change : buds,
blossoms, leaves and flowers are woven by un
seen bands, painted by invisible artists, and
perfumed from ‘vials full of odors sweet ’ —
we look upon them in the morning with sur
prise and pleasure, while the first dew and sun
beam are visiting them. What an admirable
and perfect taste must he have, who performs
all this ! There is no noise, no useless display.
Tlie Creator therein teaches modesty to his
creatures. His goodness is also visible —the
blossoms soon perish, but their hue and fra
grance are the breathings of a benevolent
mind. Look at the multitude of little heaps
of sand that lie in the paths, and suffer your
eye to rest for a moment upon the busy and
apparently happy infect that brings out his
grain of sand. Nothing seems too minute and
insignificant for the Almighty to put his hand
upon and invest with faculties of intelligence
and happiness.
Nashville, April 7.
Fifty years ago this day, as we learn from
one of the party, about sixty-four persons lan
ded at the junction of the Ohio and Muskin
gum rivers, under the command of General
ltufus Putnam, and commenced the settlement
of the State of Ohio, in the presence of nearly
three hundred Indians, who Imd assembled on
the opposite bank of the Muskingum. The
landing took place at 10 o’clock of a bright
and beautiful spring morning. What a
change have these fifty ye fJ produced in
Ohio, its dark forests have been swept aw'av
before the axe of the settler—-farms, towns and
cities now occupy the site of the wigwam, the
steamboat has taken the place of the canoe,
and a population of a million and upwards ex
ist on the same territory that supplied but a
scanty subsistence to a few hundreds of roving
savages. Such a rapid and entire change is
without a precedent in the history of the world.
When Brennan, the noted highwayer, was
taken in the south of Ireland, curiosity drew
numbers to the gaol to see tlie man loaded
with irons who had long been a terror to the
country. Among others was a banker whose
notes at that time were not held in the highest
estimation, who assured the prisoner that he
was very glad to see him there at last. Bren
nan, looking up, replied,—“ Ah, sir, I did not
expect that from you, indeed I did not; for j
you well know, that when all the country rc- j
fused your notes, I took them.”

Cotton Market.
The present week there has been some decline in in
ferior qualities—6ay a | rent ; prime Cottons demand
9 cents: but small quantities coming in. Our River is
low Weather dry, windy and cold—thermometer us i
low as 53°. A tolerable severe frost fell on Thursday
night last —some injury has been done, it is feared, to
fruit and vegetation.
9QT An unusual press of business has prevented us
from giving that attention to our editorial duties, the
present week, which it is our desire always to do. We
are not fond of apologies, but they are sometimes ne
cessary, and never mors so with us than in the present
instance. We hope, therefore, the want of editorial no
tices will be pardoned.
We have received the April fiuniber of the
Southern LiterHhf Messenger. It is freighted as usual
with many original and chaste beauties. The progress
that this periodical is making in the Literary world is
highly flattering to its talented conductor, who richly
merits the united encouragement of the whole South.—
In all tlie round of periodical literature which we re
ceive, there is no one which we greet at its appearance
with so much pleasure as this. The present number
sustains well the high character it has already obtained
iCT The/ullowing gentlemen (says the Messenger,)
were elected officers of the Episcopal (or Christ) Church
for one year, ending Easter Monday next:
Wardons— N. C. Monroe, N- Barker.
Vestrymen— A■ Bober, I. G. Seymour, J. Rea, 11. K.
Carter, C. Day, 11. S. Cutler, G. A. Kimberly, 11. Fitch.
Treasurer and Secretary— A. R. McLaughlin.
At a public commencement of the Medical De
partment of the University of Pennyslvania, held on the

Alva Connel, Bedney L. Franklin,
David B. Hamilton, John A. Hanson,
Walter J. A.Hamilton, Charles N. Home,
William A. Jarratl, E. J. Palmer,
R. W. Slone, Jesse M. Cason.
SCr A writer irf the Messenger pays the following
just tribute, in a note, **) the memory of the late Dr. Bow
ditch of Boston :
Wc cannot here but lament th« rccnni
of Dr. Uowditch, who was horn in
(Mass.) on the 26th of March, 1778, and tiieJ
in Boston. The United States have lost in
him the greatest mathematician, and the most
celebrated astronomer this country has ever
produced : one man whom nature had endow
ed with her best gifts; a high intelligence, and
an upright heait. He had been during many
years President of the American Academy of
Arts and Sciences : his writings, published in
the memoirs of the American Academy ; his
Naval Navigator; his translation of De la Mo
chanique Celeste; par La Place, ttlid the com
mentaries that accompany it, put him on a
level with the illustrious French author just
named. Dr. Bowditch had reached such an
extraordinary eminence, without ever having
enjoyed the benefits of education, without hav
ing been guided by the lessons of an instructor.
It was owing to his genius and his persever
ance that he became an adept in sciences the
most difficult and the most obscure.

TO “I.”
Dear “ I," I will tell you how you must begin
To make love to the maiden you most wish to win ;
If she will not listen to and answer your prayer,
Forget her, for she is unworthy your care ;
If she plays the coquette then be on your guard,
For the ways of the flirt and coquette are hard ;
Approach her with modesty, candor and truth—
Three virtues which greatly embellish a youth;
Tel! her of the pleasure her company gives,
And then of her absence, how sorely it grieves.
If 6he modestly blushes and hangs down her head,
You may then talk of love—you have nothing to dread ;
But if at my shrine you should worship in love,
The ‘steel’ might be wrought on and candor approve.
